━━┅━━━┅━━ 𝐅𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐥 ━━┅━━━┅━━
without making much noise you made your way to Fischl's house with a big surprise in your hands.
a slight breeze tangled your hair, but with your hands supporting the present, you couldn't get it out if your face. perfect weather to go outside, but you had other plans.
today was Fischl's birthday and you knew even if she does talk about galas, big parties or festivities, the girl prefered quiet quality time with her close friends.
a dream of hers is to just sit at home, read a few books and have fun with friends, people who would understand her.
many thought Fischl was weird and went out of her way, but she learned to ignore the judging stares.
you taught her that it wasn't important what others thought. important was what she, herself wanted.
with her birthday nearing you made it your goal to fulfill her wish. so you gathered some of her favourite books and made a cake to eat while reading.
having a big kitchen was surely an advantage and in the end you made a 2-tier cake.
the first layer including chocolate cake with wolfhook filling and almonds for a little crunch. the second was a vanillabean cake, filled with valberry jam to add sweetness and mint to balance it out.
all of it covered in a thin layer of small lamp grass buttercream to enhance the flavors, but making it not too sweet.
(i have watched too many baking shows, sorry-)
it took you some time to figure out the flavors, but eventually you managed to find the right portion of everything.
you really hoped Fischl would like it. only Oz knew about your surprise and he was going / flying for some errands, so you could enjoy your time alone as soon as you would arrive.
when you reached your destination it was rather difficult to open the door of the house with all your hands full with Fischl's presents.
after pondering a bit, you concluded that knocking would be the best idea but that would ruin the surprise. it was a hard choice to make.
suddenly the door swung open and revealed a dark raven, Oz.
(dont ask me how he opened it, idk either)
he had a blank expression as he saw the mountain of presents you had for his master. Fischl would surely be delighted, but will try to deny it.
after Oz helped you to the living room, the blonde girl made her grand entrance. the usual eyepatch on her right side and the purple dress swaying around as she moved.
she didn't notice your presence yet and proceeded to ask what she came for "Oz, do you know where (y/n) is? she promised me to come by and spend the day with me, hmph."
little did Fischl know that you were already there, silently smiling. deciding to reveal yourself you answered instead of the loyal raven. "you called me, my princess."
out of shock the blonde female stumbled down the stairs, wide eyes and a high-pitched shriek. fortunately you were fast enough and catched her just in time, preventing Fischl to get harmed in any way.
held by your arms made the girl flustered and still needed to process everything. after a while Fischl cleared her throat and slowly parted from you with a red face.
deep down, she longed for the warmth of your touch that still lingered around her but her usual tsundere attitude showed otherwise.
"i-i mean ... i, Fischl the Prinzessin der Verurteilung, grant you my presence although you lowly knight surely took my precious time to appear in my lovely garden of Mondstadt."
back at the act again, you sighed. it was nice to see the real Fischl again, Amy, but this was part of her aswell and you accepted it.
with a smile you didn't answer but took her hand in yours while leading the confused girl to the main room.
when you entered it, a table with piles of books was displayed, right in the center of it the cake you prepared for her.
mouth agape and wide eyes, an adorable expression. Fischl was stunned, amazed and felt loved.
it really touched her heart that you thought about her birthday, the day she was born. tears began to well up in her green eyes and she couldn't control it.
emotions of happiness washed over her and Fischl let it all out, jumping at you and closing you into her embrace.
after calming down, you two sat down and started to eat cake and read her favourite books, discussed and talked about whatnot.
suddenly you halted, looking up from the book you held in your hands, gently laying it down onto your lap.
a chuckle from you caught the attention of the other girl and she looked over to you with a confused look.
a blush spread over her face as she felt your hand wiping a bit of cake near her mouth and guiding it to you again, licking at the frosting that sticked at your fingers.
