Chapter 12

Kavehs POV

After the kiss it was time for me to throw the bouquet of flowers to see who would catch it (just imagine he had one this whole time)

And for our luck Tighnari caught it and inmidiately blushed when he made eye contact with Cyno.

Everyone around us cheered them on and was Cyno actually getting flustered too?!

We, then, left the cathedral and walked down the stairs towards Mondstadts main square (idk how to call it) where the anemo archons statue was, because we had decided we would eat there.

With the help of the Knights of Favonious we had set up tables all around the statue and Xiangling and Sara would now take care of the food and drinks.

But before the food was served it was time for Albedo to reveal the painting.

Everyone gathered around our table and then Albedo came with the canvas turned to him, not yet revealing the painting.

Then, finally, Albedo turned the canvas towards us and everyone gasped. Including us.

The image was perfect.

Albedo had captured all the emotions and the moment perfectly. (Just imagine that the painting is somewhat like the one my gf drew)

I took the canvas and looked at Alhaitham, tears in my eyes.

"It's perfect..." I whispered and he nodded, wrapping his arm around my shouder, also admiring the picture.

After everyone had praised Albedo's skills and applaud the image, it was time to eat.

"Kaveh..." I heard someone say and when I turned around I saw my mother coming closer.

Seeing that Alhaitham excused himself to leave me alone with her, which I was extremely grateful for.

We both sat down and an uncomfortable silence fell over us.

"I-" we both started at the same time and chuckled.

"You start" I said and my mother nodded and took a deep breath.

"Kaveh... I-I cannot tell you how sorry I actually am. I left you for a selfish reason in a very hard moment of your life...Alhaitham made me a short summary of what happened to you a-and I-I... I am a horrible m-mother...I neglected my own son..."

She was starting to tear up, which made me tear up too.

"I wasn't there for my baby, when he needed me t-the most..."

I took her hand, "Mom, it's okay. I never blamed you for anything. Times were tough for you too and you just needed a fresh start. I had other people on my side, who helped me through."

This had been very emotional for both of us. She, then gently cupped my cheek and wiped my tears away with her thumb. I put my hand over hers.

"Look at you...you've grown so handsome and tall, you're even married now!And after all of what I did your still forgiving me... you're a wonderful person, you know that? Alhaitham is a lucky guy"

"It's more the other way around", I chuckled "I am the lucky one for having him"

And as if Alhaitham could read thoughts he came back to us.

"You have to tell me your whole story of how you met!" my mother said excitedly as if I was six and told her I had my first crush on someone.

Alhaitham smiled, sat next to me, taking my hand in his and we both started talking.

Alhaithams POV

"Come on guyss! It's time to dance" Amber cheered us up. I noticed how she aswell could light up the world around her. 

Just like Kaveh.

Eula was truly lucky to have her too.

She held out her hands aus to help us up and we both took them. 

The moment we entered the dance floor, Xinyan started the music and other people joined aswell.

The music started off strong and energetic, but over time it slowed down until finally a really cheesy romantic song started playing.

Kaveh had this 'can we please dance' look in his eyes and other couples were ALGO, so I thought I might just dance with Kaveh aswell and make him happy.

I placed my hands on his hip and he rested his on my shoulders.

He smiled and I smiled back.

He blushed and I blushed back.

It was as we both just fell in love all over again, now as husbands.

As the song continued, we were moving with the slow rythm of the music, our bodies pressed up together, our foreheads touching, staring into our eyes.

Again, it seemed like we were alone in this world.

"I love you" Kaveh whispered and I whispered "I love you" back, aswell.

I know I'm not the cheesy type of person, but right now... Oh arcons... I just wanted to hold him, kiss him, never let him go and protect him like my precious, little treasure.

Well, he actually already was my little treasure...

After another few romantic minutes, the music started to get faster again and at some point almost every guest was just dancing, joking and well, drinking.

Kaveh aswell.

At some point some of the guests that Kaveh invited wanted to talk with him and I left them.

When I went to check on Kaveh like half and hour later I saw him sitting at on table talking with Kaeya. 

I came closer and realised their words were slurred and almost unintelligible.

They were both really drunk.

Albedo was also there, and the moment we made eye contact, he sighed with a defeated smile, as if to say, "Not again," as we had both been expecting this to happen.

"Some things never change, I guess..." I said and Albedo chuckled.

"Kaeya will always find an excuse to drink, today is no different and now it seems like they've even become good friends"

We then just stayed there observing them, so that they don't do anything stupid.

Albedo and I had a pleasant conversation and after a while Cyno joined. Everything was going well until he started cracking the worst jokes possible and only Albedo seemed to get them, so I excused myself and went to check up on Kaveh.

"A-alhaitham" hic "I'm tireeeed" Kaveh slurred clinging onto me.

At this point there were only a few guests left and since Kaveh was starting to fall alseep right there in my arms, so I thought it might be wise to start leaving, since we would have to wake up early tomorrow to pack for our honeymoon.

After explaining our situation to the remaining guests and thanking them for coming, I went back, carrying Kaveh, to a hotelroom I had booked for the night in Mondstadt.

I changed into more comfortable clothes and helped Kaveh into his.

We then just threw ourselves on the bed and kissed a lot until we then fell asleep, our bodies pressed up together, our lips still together...

Autors Note:

The ending of this chapter is a little 'meh' in my opinion, since, you know, people fuck the night of their wedding, but I'm not prepared to write smut rn, so yeah, I'll have to stick to this crappy ending. (Dw there'll be smut soon🤭🏳️‍🌈✨)

Also not proofread bc I'm lazy af

Anygays, hope you've  enjoyed this chapter and I also, as always, hope you have a great day!

P.S: I've already started to work on an idea for another Kavetham fanfic!! This time it'll be a modern AU one and I'm so excited omg✨✨

Also guys, angst is a must, so I'm debating whether I should just make Kaveh and Alhaitham college roomates and do some sort of normal angst (like the usual fights, etc..) or should I add in the Hanahaki disease?? (I love to make Kaveh suffer even though he's my fav. male character😭) so what do you think? With Hanahaki or without Hanahaki??
