Xingqiu POV

This March... a new seasons open... of love and intense drama will let you glued to your seats! Prepare yourself as a new curtain opens on a fresh season of "Loving Eternally"! This season, six known well people shall be setting the scene, along with a small introduction!

"Hey chicks! Thanks for having me on this wonderful show! My name is Cyno, I'm 16 and have just graduated from the well know Akademiya! I currently work in sit coms! That's it really!

-Hey there guys, how's your day? How do you do? I'm SlayDeh, currently a music lofi Maker I'm 18 years old and I come from the Sumeru desert! I love cats as you see! Can't wait for this!

-Hello! I hope you're having a nice fresh day. I'm Tighnari, currently 18 years old working as a forest ranger and I do many nature exploring documentaries and I love staying outside! I hope we get along! And I'm a graduate from the Akademiya!

- Hey there, HydroPearl here! I'm Nilou, I'm about 16 years old and I do dancing videos as a solo dancer at the Zubair theater. I also come from Sumeru. I like hanging out with friends and dancing! I look down to this new season! See ya!

-Hi...I'm Xingqiu. *I went very steady* I'm 15 years old. I come from...Liyue and I am a martial arts teacher. I also...do...acting-

-Hey there! Sorry I'm late! My name is Chongyun, I'm 16 years old, working as an actor and I also do Kung Fu. Nice to meet you!

-Oooh! You such a cutie! *Dehya said blushing a bit* I do have a soft spot for cuties!

-Oh Deh, you've cute yourself! *Chongyun started flirting with her* You look very good!"

Dehya giggled and Nilou eyed her furiously. Was something up with her? She didn't seem happy that the both were flirting. But to me, that seemed a potential couple so I was happy. Zhongli said that if there's a couple that kisses before the end of the show, it will end. And honestly, I wanted this show to end quickly. I hated acting but the only thing I wanted was to see Chongyun again.

Chongyun POV

That guy with the girl cut, the golden dark eyes. No way that could be him. My Xing. My dear poor friend who died could that be truly him or this could just be a hoax? The actors looked like a bunch of pretentious hipsters. I pray to Morax that the show will end immediately and I can return to doing Kung Fu.

By the time they told us to stop talking, I looked at my watch and saw that it was time to eat. Taking my box quickly, I walked faster to a bench under a tree and started eating my glass noodles slowly. They tasted so good. She probably did some takeaway at Goba Express. I was sorta sweating in my white polo and white cargo pants. I was all in white, looking a heap of snow. Suddenly, the golden eyed guy who was sitting like 100 meters away from me, took out the cover form his box. The smell. That smell. It was Nian Gao. Just why? I almost cried as soon as it came to my nostrils but by the time I had already stuffed a popsicle in my mouth.

"Hey there, are you okay?"

A girl with red hair sat down next to me opening a box full of triangular looking spring rolls. (Samosas) She smiled at me before coming closer to me. Insensitive to this, she giggled and looked at me.

"You look better from up close Yun. Honestly, if there was a person that I was forced kiss, *she bent closer to me* I would choose you. I backed and looked at her and she giggled*"

Dehya POV

How could she? I was on shock as what sage was saying regarding her small talk with Chongyun. How could she say that? I hated the fact that I could picture them kissing at the end of the show. It pained me so badly. Like a certain agony was in me. Did I love her? I mean being a lesbian polyamorous, I loved many women and already got myself a girlfriend called Candace. But Nilou? I loved her from first sight. When we saw each other at the the theater. We met several years ago and we got really along.

"Hey Dehya! I found this great flower place! You wanna come? I'm going with Cyno so yea.

-No, I think I'll pass it for today. Thanks Nari!"

Tighnari waved to me and I was left alone on the Parc bench. As soon was Chongyun stood up, I walked up to Nilou:

"Hey there...um... can we talk?

-Sure! Wait, let's go to the bathroom!"

Nilou led me to the public bathroom and as soon as we arrived, I looked around for cameras but there weren't any.

"So what did you want to talk about-

-You like Chongyun don't you?

-Um..yes! I do-

-Well how to phrase this. Um I...I *I felt heat going up my body* I love you! Ok! I love you from our first glance when I saw you at the-"

She grabbed my shirt and we melted into a deep soft kiss. In the bathroom, the most cheesiest place to do a kiss. I loved this moment until suddenly:

"Um...Misses?"

Nilou put me down because of her carrying me in bridal style, and we turned to see a guy with brown golden hair.

"Mister Zhongli, it's not what it looks like I-I *I became red*

-Oh that's alright! *he giggled and put his hand in front of his mouth.* Guys, I'm fine with you dating being lesbian but please, we cannot show any Yaoi or Yuri so can you just promise me to not act homo in the show?

-Alright!"

Nilou nodded and Zhongli smiled.

"Also, if you see Nahida, please tell her that Zhongli says hello!"

Zhongli left, leaving his scent of Glaze Lilies.
