With You | Thoma x Ayaka | Genshin Impact

Something New

    "No way." Ayato shook his head.

    "Hey, Young Lord, you finally took time to unlock the door after a week to let me in, don't you think the least you can do is agree to what I'm asking?" Abdiel asked.

   "I'm too busy to meet with Thoma right now. Tell him to wait a month." Ayato instructed.

   "Geez, you've always been so harsh on him," Abdiel rubbed the back of his head, "Isn't it time you see that Thoma is a really good boyfriend to Lady Aya-?"

   A pen flew towards Abdiel's eyes, he moved to the right and heard the pen break as it hit the wall.

   "Hey! That was uncalled for!" Abdiel exclaimed.

    "You were saying funny things, Abdiel," Ayato said, his eyes had a dangerous glow to them as his Hydro Vision activated, "I thought you might've been a fake."

   Abdiel ducked as another pen was thrown his way.

   "M-maybe you should stop before you break all of your pens!" Abdiel shrieked as he felt one graze the top of his head, "Honestly! I think you should get some sleep."

  Ayato set down his pen and looked at his friend, "I don't want to meet with Thoma, not when I know what he wants."

  Letting out a sigh, Abdiel leaned on the door, it opened and he fell through.

  "Oh, sorry, I didn't realize you were there." Sharar apologized as she saw her boyfriend on the ground.

  "I feel like I've been getting hurt an awful lot." Abdiel laughed.

  "Young Lord," Sharar greeted, "Have you slept at all yet?"

  "Close the door," Ayato groaned, "The light is hurting my eyes."

  "What were you talking about with Young Lord?" Sharar asked Abdiel.

  "Just if he could meet with Thoma." Abdiel whistled as he sat up.

  "Oh, because of his plans to propo-?" Sharar ducked as a pen shot towards her.

  "Don't say that." Ayato said as he crumpled the document in front of him.

  "Young Lord, isn't that important?" Sharar questioned, she finally closed the door.

  "Anyway, how do you know about Thoma's plans?" Abdiel finally stood up, inching closing to Sharar.

  "Two weeks ago-" Ayato began, "- I saw Thoma pull out the box, he was making sure the ring was still there. I know what he's planning... It can't... I won't agree!"

  "He's going to do it properly you know," Abdiel pointed out, "He won't do it until he gets your permission."

  "Wouldn't you want them to be happy?" Sharar reasoned.

  Ayato clenched his fists tight.

  "... Leave me alone for now, you two. We can discuss this more when I'm done everything." Ayato took a deep breath.

  Sharar and Abdiel glanced at each other, it wasn't going to improve any more than this.

  "We'll come back tomorrow." Sharar bowed her head slightly before leaving.

  "Make sure you get some sleep, Young Lord!" Abdiel grinned, "Lady Ayaka's been awfully worried about you!"

   They shut the door, leaving Ayato in the dark office with only a small lamp on his desk.

   "... Of course I want them to be happy..." he muttered.
