"Among rivers of blood and gradient skies, only your eyes took my breath away." -The words of a man lost to Erosion or After everything, Childe, sick and weak, can't bring himself to care. Zhongli, on the other hand starts to get worried. *the cover art is from @DonaldAkron on twitter :D (only for my friend 'u know who u are': STAY AWAYYYYYY)

Time... It was scarce, unstoppable and valuable. A broken hourglass... The perfect way to describe their love. ***Art used for front cover belongs to its rightful owner: @rinhar016 ***

With his dying breath, the orange-haired man made his promise. Unfortunately, the memory of it was lost as he was reincarnated in his next life. Zhongli on the other hand had a clear memory of the promise, the contract he was still keeping after all those years. Could Childe remember his past life or would he spend the rest of his life not knowing about it. How much longer does Zhongli need to wait for him.

Childe being the prince of Snezhnaya, was at the age to marry. He had to find a partner as soon as possible for it's forbidden for a King to possibly rule alone. So, he had to pick a fair woman to become his bride and rule by his side. Or so the prince thought-In the end, he was forced to get married by the Prince of Liyue who has an infamous name in Snezhnaya and probably even the whole of Teyvat. With negative thoughts in his head about a forced wedding and most of all marrying a man, he rejects the prince's love, only to find himself constantly having moments with the prince making his disliking towards him slowly shift into love. ( Author's note: I am actually not super deep within the game Genshin Impact and not so familiar with some of the places. So If I get the name of a place wrong or the characters I am dearly sorry. But I love this ship in Genshin and I really wanted to write about it... So... Here it is. ) *I don't own these characters *Cover art isn't mine

Liyue was... interesting, to say the least. Its harbor, to which Childe was set to on yet another glorious (utterly ridiculous) mission by Her Majesty, the Tsaritsa, was too hot, too crowded for Childe's liking. And yet, there was something about it that made him want to stay. Perhaps it was the way the breeze faintly smelled of the ocean and fish, the way Morepesok did, or maybe it was because Liyue Harbor was simply so alive. Or maybe, just maybe, it was because those amber eyes were far too enticing to leave behind, even if they were the eyes of his enemy.

After the resurrection and defeat of Osial, things became much busier for Childe. He had no time for himself until he met a certain brunette again. ❝ Childe found himself being held by Zhongli, like those cliche scenes from romance books. He had never imagined himself in such a situation, especially not as the one that was just 'rescued'.❞ A Genshin Impact Childe X Zhongli fanfiction slotted in between the end of Liyue's arc and before Childe's story quest. Contains spoilers of the main story, as well as dark themes such as angst and death.
