-> Albedo
Albedo never quite understood human emotions. It was just a foreign concept to him. He didn't spend all to much time thinking on it, deeming it unimportant
That was until he met you at least. You had managed to wriggle your way into a heart that even he didn't know existed
You were his muse. His light in the darkness. The fire to his ice. The...well you get it
The way his heartbeat would pick up around you, the way his face would heat up, the way he couldn't help but smile, all this was new
He spent hours researching about what this feeling could be, and came up with only one result. Love
You, on the other hand, was feeling the exact same things, except the obliviousness to what the feeling was
You've been in love with Albedo since what feels like forever and honestly who isn't. Ever since your good friend Sucrose introduced you to him at least.
The confession was a bit rocky, considering that it was Albedo who did it. Instead of the classic 'will you go out with me?', it was:
"You bring out the strangest yet most pleasant feeling in me when you're around. Most seem to describe it as love. (Y/N), I think I'm in love with you."
You then explained that he is indeed feeling love and that you accept his feelings
Your guys' relationship was a sweet one. Albedo spoiled you relentlessly. He would give you random kisses on your cheek, lightly brush through your hair, draw you whenever he wasn't busy with some project, etc.
But most of all, he would praise you
There wouldn't be an hour that passed by that you haven't been complemented when you're around him. They could be anywhere from generic to outright flattering.
Perhaps this is way it hurt so bad when he slowly drifted away from you
He stopped giving you those small kisses. He stopped brushing through your hair. Heck, he even stopped informing you of when he was going to be in Mondstadt
At first, you figured it was because of some huge project he got himself caught up in. You brushed it off as that too, not wanting to seem selfish
When you caught him drawing Kaeya naked however, your heart shattered
Irrational thoughts ran through your head as you spent the next few hours crying. What could you have done better? What did Kaeya have that you don't?
A lot. The answer was a lot. You knew Kaeya had a lot more charm than you did. He always had
After a bad decision to approach Sucrose on their relationship, your heart broke even more
Sucrose had said that they had always been close. It had obviously been said in a way to help ease your worries, but it did the opposite of her intentions
You approached Albedo the next time you saw him in Mondstadt. You yelled at him, asking what made Kaeya so much better. If he had fallen out of love with you. Why he had even decided to stay with you
Albedo stood there silently. His face didn't hold any expression as you screamed at him
This only confirmed your suspicions in your mind
"We're breaking up Albedo."
With that said, you walked away, holding in your sobs
You couldn't help but feel the slightest hint of disappointment when Albedo didn't follow you. A small part of you might have wanted it to be false, for it all to be a misunderstanding. But that part of you was gone
You'd move on eventually. At least, that's what you told yourself. However, it didn't stop you from sobbing into the pillow he had gifted you long ago
-> Raiden Shogun
Ei never spent all too much time interacting with the people of Inazuma. Her limits were set to the heads of the Tri-Commissions, Yae Miko, and you
It was certainly puzzling how the owner of a small sweets shop had gotten even remotely close to the shogun
Even you didn't quite know how it happened. One moment, you were striking a business deal with a shrine maiden. The next, you're standing in front of the Shogun herself
Apparently, that deal you struck (which involved lots of dango) was for the Shogun
With that, you became the Shoguns very own sweets supplier
Ei found herself growing rather found of you over the weeks. She started looking forward to seeing you, not just her sweets
Her confession was as straightforward as straightforward can get
"(Y/N), I am in love with you. Will you go out with me?"
Your answer was obviously yes
And that's how you and Ei became the talk of Inazuma the first time
You both treated each other very well
You helped Ei with stuff involving the public & cooking
Ei would let it be known that you were her lover, so you got special privileges
But most of all, you two loved each other
Or so you thought
You knew that Yae Miko and Ei had history. You knew that they were and had been good friends. And you were fine with that
When you found them in a situation that wouldn't even be happening if they were friends, you were as equally shocked as you were heartbroken
Yae was most literally climbing on top of Ei; their faces mere inches apart
"I-I can't believe you lied to me like that Ei. We're over!"
You cried out, leaving the scene as quickly as you had stumbled upon it
You left the palace like building looking like a mess. Tears were streaming down your face. Your eyes were red and puffy from crying. The robe you were wearing was barely enough to cover you, let alone stop the cold breeze from reaching your skin (its like late at night okay)
You approached Yoimiya's place with a heavy heart. She was the closest friend you had at the moment
She let you in with open arms without question
You spent that night sobbing into her shoulder, not processing the raging storm happening outside the window
