peony: to lumine a happy life is family. if she's with family, she's happy.

ミ ✦ ┊ ┊ ﹝ childe ❞ : @caelune

❝  i’ll stay.  ❞

to say that lumine's embarrassed is an understatement. to say that she's mortified is closer, though she's certain there's no word in teyvat's dictionary to express how she feels. a rosy flush spreads 'crossed fair skin as cheeks darken. those words and the way he speaks them make her pulse quicken.

it isn't like she explicitly asked childe to stay. the protest she'd unconsciously made when he'd moved to leave, the way loneliness set in instantly, the way she reached out to grasp a fistful of red fabric.. the way her lips formed words and the way her traitorous mouth cried out in a panic. everything happened so fast. she hadn't meant to say the words aloud, and yet, here they are. three small words had ruined her pride.

' wait! don't go!'

mind races. eyes widen. fist clenches. mouth hangs open. it's almost as though she has more to voice, but nothing comes out. instead, it plays on repeat in her mind. don't go! don't go! i don't want to be alone! her imagination has its way with her. scenario after scenario ravage her heart. she's seen these before. nightmares. terrors.. they are her bedmates. oh, what she wouldn't give to have someone's hand to hold.

aether is gone, lost to her for who knows how long, and paimon has abandoned her. is a snack and some mora worth more than she? well, lumine can't really say she's surprised. as used to it as she is, it shouldn't hurt the way it does. paimon betrayed her for food. really, she saw it coming someday, but she didn't think childe would be the one to bribe her successfully. but here she is. an afterthought. 'when had she last come first to someone?

though she tries to think, the memories feel gone to her. her mind is empty as the space between worlds. craters, like the moon's, leave giant gaps every time she tries to recall anything at all.

childe says less than she, but the impact it has on her is drastic. they have shut her down. why does her rebellious heart leap? she doesn't want an answer to the question. she swears, she doesn't. a breath leaves her and her throat forces her anxieties down. swallowing them before they swallow her, she releases the death grip she has on his scarf. eyes flit off to the side, taking great interest in the pillows across the room. teeth dig into her bottom lip to keep herself from saying something stupid, but it does little more than make her look coy.
