YOUR P.O.V.
The cold wind blew,soft snow fell from the sky.
And I knew,it was going to be a long cold night.
As I walked,footprints could be seen on the white snow.

(And maybe this .)

I sighed as I continued walking.
I felt the wind grow stronger by the minute.
As I walked,I spotted a small boy with messy orange hair.
I walked closer and closer,until I stood right in front of the boy.
I crouched down and gently placed my hand on his forehead.

"He has a fever." I muttered.
I think this should do.
I took my large jacket with fake fur and wrapped it around the child's body.
The boy seem to breathe heavily.
"I had better bring you somewhere warm.."



~THE NEXT DAY~
Childe's P.O.V.
I GROANED as I slowly got up.
I looked around,but I didn't recognise the place.
"Have you woken?"
"Who are you—?!" I asked as I quickly grabbed my sword.
"Hmph..Put your sword down.I brought you here because I saw u were left unconscious in the snow last night." The woman huffed.

I let out a sigh of relief as I dropped my sword down.
"But..why did u save me?" I asked.
"Do I really have to explain?I saw that you were clearly sick and needed help so I helped you and brought u all the way here and took care of you." The woman explained.
"..thank you.." I said.
"Y/N."
"What?"
"My name is Y/N.What's yours?" Y/N asked.
"Childe.." I replied.
"Nice to meet you Childe.I'll take care of you from now on.Okay?" Y/N said with a gentle smile.
"Okay..I'm in your care.." I replied.


~MANY DAYS LATER~
YOUR P.O.V.
I was walking around the city with Childe.
"Hey Childe?" I asked.
"Yeah?" Childe asked.
"I have to leave here for a while.So,I might not see you for weeks,months,or even Years." I said.
"Why?Can't you stay here?" Childe asked as he gripped the side of my jacket.
"I'm sorry Childe.I have to go.I'll come back.I promise." I said as I hugged him.
Childe cried and sobbed as he hugged me back.
"Y/N please..don't go.."
"I have to,I'm sorry.Please forgive me,this once..Childe."

If only things weren't like this way..
He yearned everyday to meet her again.
His saviour—Y/N.
He could remember her gentle smile,her affection,her attention.
He missed her so much.
He won't let her go again,if He met her once again.



~PRESENT~
I yawned as I walked around Liyue Harbour.
I glanced around,but I had accidentally bumped into someone.
I looked up and someone had reached their hand to me which I gracefully accepted.
"Sorry,Girlie!Are you—" Childe said as he chuckled but stopped as his eyes widened.
His heart skipped a beat as he stared at the beautiful woman who he yearned to see again.

"Y/N?" Childe asked.
"..Ah,Childe.It had been awhile." I said as I smiled.
Childe immediately pulled me into an embrace.
"I missed you so much..y/n.." Childe said as he hugged me.
"I missed you too." I said.
I pushed him away gently as I stepped back.
Childe could slightly feel the warmth at his fingertips and frowned slightly.


"Anyway,What are you doing here?" I asked as I raised an eyebrow.
"Hehe,that's a secret Y/N~Now,come with me." Childe said as he grabbed my wrist and pulled me.
"Ah—wait.." I muttered softly.
My lips curved into a smile,
"Oh how I missed this."


~Later~
Childe brought me to a restaurant for lunch.
"Childe..you didn't have to do this for me you know?" I said as I smiled.
"Mm..I did this because I love you~" Childe said as he chuckled.
I sighed as I stared at him blankly.
"You really have changed.But,you're still cute as ever.Childe." I said as I smiled.


Childe's cheeks became pink as he heard his name roll off your tongue.


"Thank you,y/n.But you're cuter~" Childe said as he poked my cheek.
"Okay,okay..That's enough,Childe.Hurry eat your food,it'll get cold." I said as I gently grabbed his hand for a swift moment,pushing his hand away.
Childe's eyes widened and his lips curved into a smile.
"Um y/n?How do you use chopsticks.."
"Sigh,It's like this.."


~LATER~
"Thank you for today,Childe.I'd better get going." I said.
"Awe..you're going so soon?~" Childe pouted.
"I'll see you soon.Bye,Childe." I said as I walked away.

~
I was about to walk back to meet Aether and Paimon,until I saw Zhongli sitting at a table.
I slowly walked towards him and smiled.
"Zhongli.Do u mind if I sit here?" I asked.
"I don't mind."


"Zhongli..Let me ask you something." I said as I picked up a cup and sipped it.
"Go ahead." Zhongli replied.
"Do you remember Guizhong?" I asked.

Zhongli's body froze for a brief second.
"Ah..Guizhong..Yes,I do remember her.Why do you ask,Y/N?" Zhongli asked.
"Ah,sorry.I was just wondering since..you seem much happier now.Not a bad thing,though." I added.
"Is that so?It's true,I'm much more happier now but I do miss Guizhong at times." Zhongli said.
"I see,"


~MANY,MANY YEARS AGO~
"Y/N!"
"Hello,Guizhong.What is it?" I asked as I smiled.
Guizhong giggled as she clung onto my arm.
I was taken back,but I sighed as I gave in.

Guizhong wore a skirt and she had long sleeves.
She was a cute,and kind person.
She was the God Of Dust,yet,she looks up to Y/N.
She admired Y/N,but always treated her as a friend.
She couldn't believe it,but accepted that she had fallen for Y/N.
It was very peaceful.
Until..

~
I ran as fast as I could.
But..
I was too late.
My eyes widened as I saw Guizhong's body laying on the floor.
Why?
Why did this happen?
Why didn't I save her?
Tears fell as I brushed her hair away and caressed her face.
Guizhong slowly opened her eyes.
"Guizhong!" I said.
"Y/N.." Guizhong replied with a weak smile.
"Y/N..Please,Remember me.I guess..this is goodbye." Guizhong said.
"N..no..N-no!I can't.." I sobbed as I held her hand tightly.
"Y/N wear this.It's a necklace I made..I wanted to give this to you.." Guizhong said as she placed a necklace in my hands.
"I..Gui..Please,stay with me." I said as I trembled.
"I love you Y/N." Guizhong said as her cheeks became slightly pink.
"What do you mean.."
"I love you Y/N.I fell the minute I saw you.I know you might not feel the same way,but I just wanted to tell you this." Guizhong said.
"..I..but..I'm sorry,Gui.I can't return those feelings." I said.
"I knew I wouldn't be good enough to be the one you love..Thank you,Y/N."
"No..please!Gui..!" I shouted as tears flowed.
"I love you."
That was Guizhong's last words before her body disappeared into dust.
I quickly picked up the dust in my hands as the tears kept flowing.
"I..lost someone again."
"Y/N.." Morax said as he pulled me into an embrace.
I sobbed and cried that night.
I miss you,Guizhong.
