✅Her dance (Cyno x reader)[SHORT STORY]

Get to know me

Y/n took Cyno to meet everyone and tell them he could take them to Nilou.

Everyone seemed so wrm and welcome, but Cyno kept his guard up. Some older men looked at him in not so welcome way but they didn't say anything.

The night came and everyone gathered around a small fire, telling stories of their childhood.

Cyno then figured out that They were all people from different nations who came together.

But Y/n seemed too quiet. Cyno only saw her as happy and outgoing person, he had hoped he could learn more about her now, but was dissapointed.

--------------

It was late now, stars and moon were only sources of light, Cyno was staying in one of spare tents, he couldn't sleep.

One person completely occupied his mind. He wondered what she was dreaming about. This feeling was all new to him, he had no idea what it was but he liked it.

⚠️WARNING SELF HARM⚠️
⚠️ SUICIDAL THOUGHTS⚠️
(I'm sorry)

She didn't sleep. She had that stupid nightmare again. Or is it just a memory she wanted to forget?

She got up. When she found out Cyno was a matra, she had hope he could help her. But hope faded too soon.

In front of her was a small cabinet with toold for eating :spoon, fork, knife.

She just couldn't help it. It felt so right in the moment. First few cuts: for her overworking, for hard dances she didn't like, for people who didn't like her...

Is it possible, to just cut her
throath?

'DON'T!'
she heard her sister, or was it Y/n?
That's right, she promised her,
to never fall in too big saddness.
There are still people who apriciate her. Children who would

sometimes sneak her more portions of fod when they noticed she didn't eat.

She put the knife down wiping it clean, then treating her wounds silently.

Dream soon chought her again as she knew she'll have to wake up early tomorow.
-------------

Y/n woke up and went outside, there were few dogs that belonged to other dancers, she wasthe one in charge of feeding them, and they didn't really like her.

Their barks woke up Cyno, so Y/n quickly got back to her tent to pretend like she just treated her wounds from last night.

........................................

When the girl returned back out Cyno was looking somewhere in the distance.

"Good morning. Did I wake you while feeding the dogs?"

"Good morning, don't worry, you didn't."

"What are you looking at?"

"If you have some time to spare, I would like to show you something."

She thought about his offer,
technicaly she didn't have anything to do since they will be leaving for Sumeru city tomorow but
if somebody were to need her...

"I'm free, I did everything I needed" She gave him her signature happy smile. And Cyno started to walk gesturing her to folow him.

Soon they got to what looked like small village.

"This is Aaru Village, we were suposed to come here tomorow, but Candace makes her special recepy only on sundays."

He said leading you to big house
in the middle of village.
He knocked on the door and gentle voice was heard from other side.

"Yes? Come in!"

Cyno opened the door and Y/n saw a beautiful woman with yellow and blue eyes smiling at them.

"Cyno, is this a friend of yours?"

"Yes, this is Y/n. I wanted her to try your 'Utmost care'."

"Ah I see, of course, I'm Candace, it's nice to meet you."

-------------
After the two were done eating they thanked Candace and left. Cyno was going to show Y/nthe great pyramid of King Deshred.

Cyno couldn't hold it anymore, do he finaky asked:
"What happened to your arms?"

"Oh, don't worry, one of dogs schrached me this morning while I was feeding them."

She knew he saw trough her lies before so she was really shocked when he belived her.

"I see, does it still hurt? You treated the wound right?"

"Yeah, everything's fine now.."

Y/n thought their conversation would end there, but Cyno wanted
to hear her voice more (simp).

"Hey, last night, I was hoping I would hear more about you, you were really quiet. Don't you have some fun memories growing up?"

'Oh, no... Keep it cool Y/n.'

The only questions she couldn't bare to hear are those about her childhood.

"That's because u basicaly grew up with them, so everyone knows about my past, there's simply nothing to share."

"Well, I don't know much about you, how about this.. You tell me some of your stories, and I'll tell you few of my own?"

"Haha, that's silly. Past should be in the past you know?" She looked at him for a second then back in front of her.

"It all already hapened so if I tell you anything it won't count for future. If you want to get to know me, you should ask about things I like now you know?"

Her smile was never leaving her face and something about it really bothered Cyno.

"How are you gonna learn from your mistakes if you don't remember past?"

"I think I already did... but I can tell you a story of two."

"How about you save them for latter..Look, we're here." He showed hee huge beautiful Pyramid.

Cyno smirked as he saw girls amused gaze, unfortunately they could't go too near because of robots but this view was enough for her.

On their way back to others Cyno noticed another interesting thing.
"I see you have anemo vision. Can you also fight?"

Y/n looked at her weist where her vision was glowing. She seemed as if she's forgoten she had it.

"Well, yes but I'm not that skilled."

'That smile again... please stop.'
