One of a kind 。Xiaoven 🍀

『 heartbreak 』

Venti POV:

I miss him.

I miss him every single day, every single second.

But the only thing is,

He doesn't miss me.

Xiao broke up with me a few months ago, and I just couldn't let go of it. He wanted to be with Aether, and all I wanted was to disappear into oblivion.

Most times I would spend my nights cuddling into his arms in our serenitea pot, but now... I would spend them all alone on a cliffside.

Sometimes on those nights, I wanted to just jump off the cliff. I didn't know what to do anymore, I loved him so much I couldn't handle the feeling that he didn't love me any longer.

Although I wanted to, I couldn't. I had a nation to take care of.

I looked over at the ocean, the waves gently crashed against each other. I swung my legs back and forth as they hung off the cliff.

Tears slowly rolled down my cheeks as I looked up at the stars. The stars reminded me of us, and so did the ocean. I and he loved to stargaze at night, together watching the stars as we talked for what seemed like hours.

I wish those moments could've lasted forever.

I took a deep breath and wiped my tears away, I pulled out my lyre and began to strum the strings gently. Music was the thing that washed away all my emotions.

As the days went on, I hated my life more and more, I dreaded having to go out and see Xiao and Aether together.

Today was another one of those archon meetings that happened once every year. It's pretty fun sometimes. Especially when everyone brings food and wine native to their nation, and we just gossip about the most random things.

Everyone sat down at a large table in an abode that had a seal created by all the gods combined, it was pretty cool honestly.

"So... what's the gossip today?" Murata, the pyro archon said, resting her arms on the table with a smirk.

The archons all started to gossip about some of the vision users within their nation, I just sat there quietly.

"Hey, Barbatos. You're usually the loudest one here, why are you so quiet today?" Focalors, The hydro archon asked me.

I shook my head and put on a fake smile. I feel as if they could see right through it.

"Barbatos... you can tell us." Kusanali, the dendro archon said with a gentle smile.

"I.."

My voice shook as tears started to fall my cheeks.

"Hey.. calm down... it's okay.." Kusanali softly said.

"Wow, this is my first time seeing the Anemo archon cry." The cryo archon, Tsaritsa said.

"Shut up," Murata said, rolling her eyes.

"What happened?" The geo archon, Morax asked.

"Xiao broke up with me..." I finally let out in broken words, I buried my head into my hands and cried my heart out.

"Xiao?" Morax said in shock.

"He loves... the t-traveler." I stuttered.

The whole table gasped in shock.

"And now they're together and I can't just handle the fact that they are and I'm trying so hard to get over this but it's so hard because I love him so much and-"
