Iâve been going through my drafts for shits and giggles and found this five year old master piece. I found it hilarious and I wanted to share. The writing is kind of all over the place, itâs more of a summary of events that an actual story (more like just jotting down the idea before it could flee), but there are moments of dialogue that make it worth while.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did while reading this.
This is a Kaeya x Oc fic.
Genre: Comedy, Drama, lighthearted, friends to lovers.
Word count: 2k or so words
Real name: Nicolette belle (oc)
Back story: used to live in liyue but moved to mondstadt when she was 16 cuz overbearing mother, bossy spoiled older sister, and deadbeat father. She's an adventurer. She made a friend in Mond named Danielle. They were in Angel share with 2 other friends. Jay was feeling left out so she excused herself to leave. Went to the bar to pay for her drinks and that's how Jay met kaeya. Jay was 18 and Kaeya was 20. Friendship with Dannielle broke off when Jay was 20. Danielle had to move to Snezhnaya for business cuz of her dad. After that, they (Jay and Kaeya) became friends, and by extension Diluc as well. Now it's a common occurrence for Jay to meet up with kaeya at Angel's share. Her and Kaeya are absolute besties. He told her about how he's a spy as a joke while drunk, but she said she didn't care either way, "As long you have no intention to hurt anyone, I don't care what you are." Kaeya didn't expect her to take it seriously, but he then started to loosen up around her, and maybe developed a bit of a crush. This happened when Kaeya was 21 and Jay was 19.
Her and kaeya were out having lunch at good hunter (as friends) when a guy who knew her when she was younger (from liyue) came over to her table. He was there for business cuz he took over his family's business or whatever. He was shocked because of how hot Jay became and such. Jay was a bit chubby when she was younger. Guy wanted her to get with him cuz she was hot now and stuff while being all super close and touchy. Jay got mad then broke his toe with her heel (her boots have metal heels and tip). Bro obviously became a coward and stuff and started calling her a psycho. Then Jay threatened to cripple him if he ever got near her or her friends. That's how she got her vision. It materialized on the ground near her but she didn't notice it cuz she was too mad as she stormed off to Angel's Share. Kaeya picked it off the ground, rushed after her and gave it to her. She was all shocked n shit but accepted it. After witnessing that, Kaeya vowed to himself to never make her angry, ever.
After that, a life changing event took place. A new domain popped up. Turns out it was a time loop of sorts.
Jay went in with Diluc and Kaeya. Diluc got stuck in the time loop for 97 days. Jay got stuck for 3 years. So she decided to be a good sport about it and hone her hydro vision abilities. Kaeya, fortunately for him, wasnt included in the time loop experience. The domain was very picky it seems.
When Jay got out, the next day, Kaeya decided that life was too short so he was gonna confess before he's too late. So, the next day (right after leaving the domain), Jay has all this energy so she spent the entire day doing commissions, fighting ruin machines and all that as if on a sugar high. So kaeya didn't get the chance for that. So, next day, kaeya goes over to her house cuz he was concerned cuz he didn't see her outside at the normal time she normally would be. He knocks on her door, she tells him to come in, he then finds her in her room doing push-ups on the ground. She asks him to sit on her back for more weight distribution so he does.
Then they talk. He was concerned cuz she was in a time loop for 3 years and she seems to be completely chill regardless of that fact. She instead seems pretty happy about it. Cuz she became closer and bonded with Diluc more the first 97 days he was in there. He stopped remembering he was in a time loop by the 98th day so Jay figured he managed to get out. Each day she decided to spar with either Diluc or Kaeya (the ones from the time loop. Not the real ones). So she basically memorized their fighting style to the point she can fight both at the same time. She basically spent three years fighting them so it's not far fetched to say that she'd become stronger and better and be able to defeat them. She was basically able to get stronger overnight in the real world. Even if it didn't feel that way. So as she was done exercising, she cleans herself with her hydro vision then leads Kaeya to the kitchen for breakfast. They talk some more before he confessed.
"What would you do if I told you that I have feelings for you?" Asked Kaeya.
"Go out with you of course. Unless you only wanted to let me know and move on with it." Said Jay, while heating up the water to make coffee.
"I see," Said Kaeya with a smile. "Well, then would you do me the honor of going out with this humble knight?" He asked playfully with a dramatic bow.
Jay looked at him with slight shock then she smirked, "As long you don't mind dealing with all sort of mental issues, then you got me for life." She said as she passed him his coffee.
"I don't mind at all. We can help each other that way." Said Kaeya as he sipped his coffee.
Jay chuckled, "Sounds festive." She looks at him questioningly as she asked, "Have you dated anyone before?"
Kaeya shook his head, "No. Have you?"
"Nope," Jay said, popping the 'p'. "Noice! We both never dated before. High five!" Said Jay while raised her hand above the table for Kaeya.
Kaeya chuckled as he high fived her. 'Cute.' He thought.
And that is how they got together. Jay is 20 here, Kaeya is 22. Also the start of cannon. Cannon started like a few months after.
After liyue goes to shit and gets saved by the traveler, Jay gets a wedding invitation from her mother. Her and Kaeya go. Tho she told him not to dress up as a major "fuck you" and neither did she. She was only going for the food. They go to the wedding, her mother comes over to her after the 'I do's' and stuff and starts talking n shit.
"Oh darling! You look stunning! If I'd known you would look this good after running away, I would've sent you out long ago!"
Kaeya's eyebrows furrow slightly. Jay rolls her eyes. Kaeya can't believe his ears. This is Jay's mother?
"Good to know you haven't changed. Still care about your image more than your family, I see."
"And you're still as rebellious as ever. Y'know dear, it's not as charming when you're already a grown adult. Running away was already a terrible decision on your part. Best you snap out of it now."
Jay arched an eyebrow and looked at Kaeya as if to say 'see?'. Kaeya was now starting to see why Jay left.
"So you think me leaving was just an act of rebellion?" Jay asked.
"Why of course! What else could it be?"
Kaeya looked at Jay and whispered, "Maybe if you tell her why you left she would understand? Give her a chance."
Jay sighed and turned to her mother, "I left because you were completely overbearing and restricted my freedom. I was scorned by you for liking things that "weren't fit for nobles" or whatever. You laughed at me when I said I wanted to become an adventurer then said it wasn't "ladylike". You were anything but supportive. Do you still think that I acted out cuz I was being "rebellious"?"
Kaeya looked proud as Jay spoke.
"Still acting rebellious I see. It's really not a good look on you, dear."
Jay just shook her head in disappointment. She shrugged as she looked at Kaeya. "She's a lost cause." She mumbled, but Kaeya heard her perfectly fine.
She continued talking with her mother, who was basically insulting all of Jay's life choices.
"Stop it! Cease this act of rebellion this instant! You are an absolute disgrace to this family!"
Kaeya was just witnessing this with a shocked expression. Blinking in shock. How could a mother say that to her child. He was about to make a retort when Jay beat him to it.
"And that's why your ex husband left you," came Jay's instant response.
A grin threatened to cross kaeya's face. He almost choked on his spit. He but his tongue to keep silent.
Jay elbowed him as she saw how he was incredibly entertained. He was barely keeping himself together.
"Y-You! The audacity you have! I will not let you ruin my day! I suggest you get out of my sight! Humph!"
"Alright. But don't come crying to me asking for money when your conman of a husband steals all of yours."
Her older sister comes over and starts talking shit. After looking Kaeya up and down she said, "No way you scored someone that good looking. He must be dating you out of pity."
"And your "fiancé" is dating you for your money. At least mine actually likes me."
Dramatic and offended gasps ensue. Kaeya covers his mouth to hide the grin on his face. He was glad he came. This was unbelievably entertaining. He was ready to defend Jay at a moments notice. But it seemed like she didn't need his help after all. Wait... Did Jay indirectly call him her fiancé?
"Now if you'll excuse me, imma go eat your food and then leave."
Her mother tells her to wait and has a servant give her a letter.
"Consider this me officially disowning you." Her mother said with scorn.
"No need. I already disowned myself when I left years ago." Said Jay with a lazy grin. She snatched the letter, walked over to the food table stuffing a couple of stuff in her mouth then grabbed Kaeya's arm and dragged him out.
Fast forward, Kaeya and Jay are at Angel's Share with Diluc manning the bar that evening. Jay had the letter on the bar table while staring at it intensely. Kaeya was sitting on a stool next to her, "You'll burn holes into it if you keep staring at it like that, y'know."
Jay's eyes snap up at Kaeya, he flinched a bit in surprise but settled back into his chair.
"Let's make a bet," said Jay, "If what's in this envelope gives me an identity and or an existential crisis, you owe me a drink. If it doesn't, I owe you a drink. Deal?" Jay brings her hand out for a shake.
Kaeya shook her hand hesitantly. He's never wanted to win a bet this much before. He really hoped that Jay doesn't get a crisis of any sort. "For the sake of your sanity, I really hope you lose this bet."
Meanwhile Diluc was just looking at them like they were crazy. How much did he miss while those two were in liyue. And why are they just casually discussing these kinds of topics like they're nothing.
Jay opens the letter and it basically said how she was from Fontaine and her name isn't Jingliu, its actually Nicolette Belle and that she was dropped off as a baby in liyue and payed her new "family" to care for her until she was old enough to care for herself.
After reading Jay turn to Kaeya with a big grin on her face, "Ha! I was right! You owe me a drink!"
Diluc dropped a glass he was polishing in shock while Kaeya choked on his drink.
"W-What?" Kaeya coughed out as he turned to her.
Jay hands him the letter as she casually kicks her feet from her place on the stool.
"Sooo-.... Turns out my name is not Jingliu. I am not from Liyue. And my whole life was a lie! What fun!" Jay takes an obnoxious sip of her drink. "It's honestly starting to sound like a cliche really. So yay! I'm a Fontainian!"
Diluc and Kaeya share a concerned look. Any normal person would freak out about this but Jay seemed to be handling it pretty well. Matter of fact, she seemed to enjoy this?
"Hey, Jay?" Kaeya asked, brows slightly furrowed in concern.
Kaeya hesitated for a bit before he asked, "How are you feeling about this?"
Jay snorted, "You shouldn't be so concerned. Something like this doesn't bother me. If anything, I'm just curious as to who my "parents" really are. That's all. Promise!" She reassured him with a smile.
Kaeya was still not convinced, but he accepted her answer anyway. Diluc on the other hand might be having a mild freak out in Jay's stead. When he woke up that morning this wasn't how he thought his day would go. This evening was getting even more absurd the more time goes by.
"So! I'll be going to Fonataine!"
Diluc broke the second glass of the evening. Kaeya almost fell out of his chair.
"Let's calm down now! No need to be impulsive. Why don't we think about this for a bit!" Kaeya tried to reason. He's usually the one encouraging others to make absurd choices. This is the first time he's ever tried or needed to talk down someone from making an impulsive decision before. It was all fun and games until the one making these decisions was his lover.
"What's there to think about? I wanna know who they are, and sitting here isn't gonna help me find out. So I'm gonna plan a trip to Fontaine! You're both more than welcome to join me!"
A bead of sweat dropped from Kaeya's forehead in slight exasperation. He sighed in resignation. Guess he's going to Fontaine. The things love makes people do. Diluc sent Kaeya a look of sympathy.
Kaeya recognized that look. Looks like he's going alone. He sighed again. This was going to be a long trip.
