I don't know what to do without you~ Lyney X gn!reader

"Please, I'm still the same Lyney you fell in love with."

T/W- angst with no comfort, hurt, yelling all the fun stuff 

You were taken aback by Furina, the hydro archon's own comments. He'd lied to you. Lyney, the love of your life, had lied. Sure, he was a magician who guarded secrets, but this was different. How could he not have told you?

"Tell me. Aren't you and Lynette from the House of Hearth?" Her smirk made you sick. Lyney, on the other hand, made you feel even worse. His captivating smile had faded, and he was left with a broken expression. He was staring at you, trying to locate life in your now-dead eyes. All you know is that you were holding back tears.

How could he?

Why would he?

You walked out of the courthouse, unconcerned about how people looked at you.

You tried to focus on something other than your partner, but he was all you could think about. The way he looked deflated, defeated. Tears threatened to fall down your cheeks, and holding them back was difficult. And were not in the mood for people to see you cry.

The court was adjourned about 20 minutes later, and the first person out was, of course, Lyney. His normally smiling appearance was filled with tears, matching the marking on his face. What had he done, Archons? He dashed towards you but did not hug nor kiss you. He always knew when you needed your space and never pushed it.

"I understand you may not want to talk to me right now..."

"No, Lyney I don't want to speak to you."

His expression showed his sadness. Lyney excelled at expressing his feelings but struggled to conceal them.

"Please, I'm still the same Lyney you fell in love with."

"You lied to me! You know I despise the Fauti."

"That's precisely why I didn't tell you."

Now the tears began to fall. Lyney was merely upset, whereas you were angry and upset.

His pleading look almost convinced you to take him back. You had to turn your back to prevent yourself from doing so. Of course, you still had feelings for him; who wouldn't? You were only hurt because he didn't tell you. But it's not like you'd be happy if he'd told you before all of this. A sudden gust of wind went past you both.

You realised you had a crowd. Everyone who was present during the spectacular court trial was there. They were watching every second, lapping up the drama, like a dog to water. Something else you despised about Fontaine.

"Love, Please-"

"Just stop Lyney." You had given up fighting his claims.

Although you couldn't see his face, you could guess what it looked like. Dull, gloomy, and lacking in charm or his sparkle.

"Y/N, I didn't lie, I just left out bits of the truth." Hearing your name from him hurt because he typically called you by a pet name.

"Important bits, Lyney!" Your voice began to shake. "We're done, I don't want to talk to you again."

"Love..."

"Don't."

By this point, there was no stopping the tears.
