Unrecognised feelings (Xiaother fanfic)

Xiao is a quiet, inexpressive Highschooler who doesn't like talking to people much other than his close friends. Despite having a lot of attention due to his looks, he can come off as quite harsh and emotional to people who don't know him well. Even though he sometimes says mean things, he doesn't mean them -most of the time anyway. He just doesn't know how to properly express his emotions and hides them from everyone else- except one person. Except Aether. Recently, he has started having these unrecognised feeling but doesn't know what they are, it makes his heart skip a beat. When aether touches him, when aether hugs him but does he really want them? What will sooth this irregular feeling?
