(It's been a week)

My earbuds were on with music blasting through my ears. I was chilling in English class finishing off my assignment when all of a sudden I feel a hand place on my shoulder. Swiping the hand off as I take my earbuds out of my ear I say "What" as I turn around to see the teacher. I quickly add "Is up teach" I chuckle. "Quick save" The deep voice says. Now I realize how hot this teacher is, He had brown hair that faded into an amber orange, tied up into nice pony tail. He wore professional attire, it suited his build. His eyes were a perfect shade of amber brown.

"Y-yeah. Sorry sir" I said nervously, my heart sped up. I knew he was a yandere but I couldn't help but feel interested in him. "Just call me Zhongli" He said with warm smile. "Sure Si- Zhongli, what do you need?" I say as slight blush appears on my cheeks as Zhongli places his hand on my shoulder "Well, I wanted to ask if you had any school clubs after school" Zhongli asks with his smile. Is- is he asking me out? I can feel my heart start to race faster and faster. "No, why do you ask" I say hiding how I felt inside my thoughts. "hm, just as I thought. Well everyone in school needs to be in atleast 1 club" "Do you get where I'm going with this" Zhongli chuckles.

Disappointment is all I felt, and it flashed through my eyes for a second though I quickly hid it. "Yeah, what clubs are there?" I ask "Hm, too many to tell you now. Why don't I get my son to show you all the clubs here? Meet here back here at the end of school" Zhongli says grabbing my hand and kissing it as he left.

Suddenly someone someone nudges me, I turn my head to see a girl with long brown hair tied into pigtails. "Now what do you want" I say annoyed whilst holding the hand Zhongli kissed. "You seem to be his favourite so far" The weirdo girl said whilst smirking. "really?" I asked quietly. "Yup" she replied with a playful look in her eyes. "I'm the 77th Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, Hu Tao. Hu as in "Who put me in this coffin?" and Tao as in "I can't geT OUt!" She giggled.

I hold a hand to my mouth to try to stifle the laughter caught in my throat, unable to hold my laughter it came out as giggling first and then it came out as a full blown laughter attack. Hu tao began laughing heavily too. Falling out of my chair causing people to stare, including Zhongli. Not noticing, me and Hu tao begin laughing even more heavily, then Hu tao fell out of her chair too falling right next to me.

After what felt like 5 minutes we finally calmed down, and got to sit on our chairs. I looked around and saw people looking at us and whispering. It wasn't really whispering due to the fact I could hear them.

"Isn't that the weird girl boy thing who didn't go to any of her classes till this term?"

"Yeah, and he is very rude. He pushed that one person over because they said hello to him"

"Not only that but he's talking to that weird funeral parlor owning weirdo"

Annoyed I glance towards the annoying gossipers, "IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT ME AND HU TAO SAY IT TO OUR FACES!!!! AND I'M A GIRL" I aggressively shout at them. It immediately shut them up. Satisfied, I sit down and properly introduce myself with a slight smile "I am Y/n, often found in peaceful forestry area's or exploring abandoned theme parks.". "well it's an honor to meet you! May I have your phone number so when I find an abandoned theme park I can inform you where it is immediately" Hu tao says hopefully. "Sure, It's (Insert phone number)" I tell her. "erm, could you repeat that" Hu tao said whilst sweat dropping. Hu tao knew of Y/n's uncontrollable anger but decided to ignore it and she was glad she did. But she didn't want the anger to be forced onto her.

"Just hand me your phone, I'll insert it" I say holding my hand out, Hu tao passes her phone and after I insert my phone number I give me the perfect name. "Hey do you have snapchat?" I ask before I give Hu tao's phone back. "Yeah, if you want. You can add yourself if you want". Nodding, I go onto snapchat and add myself in and hand it back.

"Nice name, It's giving 2019 gachatuber though" Hu tao says with a mischievous grin

"Nice name, It's giving 2019 gachatuber though" Hu tao says with a mischievous grin. "You did not" I gasp dramatically holding a hand to my chest.




It was now the end of the day and I was infront of English class. I knock on the door, It looks so Peaceful here at school when everyone is gone. I hear someone say come in. I open the door to see no one else but Zhongli, My heart rate speeds up for a few seconds. "Ah, you came. Xiao will be here soon" I begin to walk towards my usual seat and as I sit down on my seat I grab some of my art projects (Drawing or smth.) And start to draw some more things. "Ugh this is so hard! I (you pick if you were good or bad at drawing)" I think whilst sighing.

"What's wrong?" Zhongli asks with slight concern in his voice "Oh I'm just struggling with an art assignment" I respond with annoyance in my voice. Zhongli then gets up from his desk and walks towards me, then standing behind me placing his hands on my shoulders he asks "What assignment is this? What do you need to draw?" "Well I need to draw (Insert whatever) and I'm struggling" I say sighing.

Suddenly a warm hand grabs my hand that holds a pencil and starts to help me draw. My heart rate begins to speed up, my heart is beating so loudly. Hopefully he can't hear it. "There... is this better" He asks with a small smile "y-yeah" I respond with blush slowly disappearing from my face. Finally we finish drawing and he asks still not letting go of my hand "How old are you y/n?".

I stand up infront of him "I'm 18, why do you ask" I avoid eye contact as he walks closer and closer to me. I could feel his breath tickling my face. His warm hand grabs my chin and lifts (or lowers) my head up so we made eye contact. He sweeps the hair that was covering my face and tucks them behind my ears.

"You have the most gorgeous eyes" Zhongli said as he caressed my cheek, "Really?" I ask surprised. "Indeed.." Zhongli says as he pulls me closer whilst leaning in

Until

A knock and opening of the classroom door

Zhongli quickly lets go of me and takes a couple steps away from me with slight blush appearing on his face, I step back too feeling overly flustered. "Did I interrupt something? WAIT NO DAD PLEASE NO!" The short guy with dark teal hair said panicked. "Nothing happened Xiao" Zhongli said returning to his calm demeanor. "Y/n this is Xiao, Xiao this is Y/n." "Don't let my frail body fool you. And don't let my kindness get into your head, for when you get in my way. Don't expect me to stand beside you." I said coldly, not wanting to meet so many new people. "If you awake to a knife at your throat, if monsters dig their claws into you, if death comes knocking at your door, call out my name. Adeptus Xiao. I will be here when you call."

"Seems you both have something in common..." Zhongli starts as me and Xiao stare at him waiting for him to finish his sentence. "You both aren't welcoming to strangers" Zhongli chuckles as he finished his sentence. Silence falls between all three of us until Xiao clears his throat and speaks up







"Come on... We have places we need to go."
