Sweet || Kazuha x Reader

Summary:

You and Kazuha decided to take a much-needed vacation to Sumeru to unwind and relax. The night a couple of days after you arrived, a heavy thunderstorm makes itself present. You and Kazuha both awoke from the boisterous strikes of lightning. Kazuha was able to fall back to sleep with ease, while you weren’t. When he found that out, the Inazuman wanderer tried his best to help you get some rest.

Chapter Text

It started with gentle rain, pitter-pattering softly on the windows. Then it began to escalate. The once tranquil sound of raindrops turned into an aggressive downpour. 

The sudden clap of thunder which erupted through the clouds instantly brought you awake. Your eyes sprung open as your heart rate began to calm down. You turn to your right side to check on your boyfriend who was sound asleep. You laughed quietly to yourself.

His arms were tightly locked around the blanket, his eyes softly sewn shut. His lips were ever so slightly parted, as occasional exhales were released. 

He looks so cute… too bad it won’t last long. I have a sneaky feeling the storm is going to get worse from here.

You cautiously climbed out of bed, very careful not to make a sound. You slowly tiptoed out of the room, exiting the bedroom as you made your way to the living room. 

As you sat comfortably on the room’s couch, a deafening bolt of lightning sounded, making your body jerk.

He’s probably going to wake up from that one…’ You guessed.

You checked the time using your phone. ‘2:32 AM’ it said. You groaned in annoyance as you let yourself sink into the couch, the soft fabric consuming your lower half. You impatiently turned on the TV and began scrolling through the channels, attempting to find ‘Teyvat News’, the renowned 24-hour news channel which broadcasts all over Teyvat. 

As if by fate, you were just in time for the weather report. 

“And now for our latest weather report, extreme weather warnings for Sumeru. Heavy rain and thunderstorms will last for up to three hours. We urge all those in Sumeru to stay indoors to avoid this horrible weather. Apart from that, we see clear skies for the rest of the regions-”

Upon hearing the last line, you promptly turned off the TV and crossed your arms grumpily. ‘Out of all the regions, why does Sumeru have to have the shittiest weather?! ’ 

As a way to make yourself feel tired once again, you decided to make some tea. 

You headed to the kitchen and gathered what you needed, all while booming bolts of lightning continued to sound. You could have sworn you heard some noise coming from the bedroom, however, you didn’t think much of it. You grabbed a bottle of water and poured it into your kettle. As you turned the kettle on and listened to its high-pitched whistling gradually get louder, two arms snaked around your waist making you yelp in fright. Although that fright quickly faded as you realized it was Kazuha, who had probably awoken from the thunder. 

He tugged your back to press against his chest, while he rested his head on your left shoulder. His hands slipped under your shirt, they tenderly roamed your chest, gently skimming over your nipples and slightly pinching them. You gasped as your eyes widened, your cheeks flushed at the action. You chuckled lightly and glanced at Kazuha, whose head was now buried in your shoulder. “Someone’s needy aren’t they?” You teased.

Kazuha whined softly as he brought his lips to the base of your neck, tenderly kissing and sucking your Adam's apple, releasing a quiet groan from you. You turned yourself around so you and the Inazuman were face to face. You butted your forehead into his, your hands tucking themselves into silky hair. “Did the shitty storm wake you up too?” 

Kazuha laughed gently, “Yes it most certainly did. The thunder startled me quite a bit, I turned to my side to see you but… you were not there. So I came here in search of you.” He ended his sentence by giving you a peck on the lips.

“Clingy aren’t you?” You cooed, rubbing your thumb over Kazuha’s lips. 

He blushed a soft red and nodded, clearly ashamed while staring at his feet. 

Cute.’ 

“I was just making myself some tea to help me fall asleep.” You mentioned, “Without this, I’ll probably have trouble sleeping.” 

Kazuha nodded understandingly. He placed his hand atop yours and gazed at you, softly smiling, “Here, let me make it for you.” 

You grinned and shook your head, “It’s alright, there’s no need. go have a seat Kazuha I’ll make some tea for you too-”

“Sweetheart.” Kazuha interrupted. You averted your gaze from the kettle to Kazuha.

Sweetheart? That’s new, not complaining though.’ You voiced your opinion silently.

“Let me make the tea for you and myself, you head to bed, I’ll arrive shortly after.” 

You reluctantly sighed and nodded, turning in the opposite direction to head to the bedroom. Kazuha has always been the type of boyfriend to take as much weight off your shoulders as he could, despite knowing you could do it yourself. That’s just the type of man he is, a kind soul. 

You rolled onto your bed and sat upright, gazing out the window. Rain was gushing down heavily, and booms of thunder erupted from the clouds every couple of seconds. 

Kazuha soon arrived, two cups of piping hot tea in his hands. He handed one to you and you gratefully took it. He sat next to you, quietly observing the weather just as you were doing a few minutes ago. “I’ve never seen rain quite like this, Yashiori Island has some very powerful thunderstorms, but nothing like this…” He trailed off as another clap of lightning echoed through the walls. 

You laugh and sip on your tea, “That’s Sumeru for you.” you sarcastically remark. Kazuha grinned at that. The two of you sat in silence, savouring the hotness of the tea while it lasted, watching the raindrops slip and slide down the window. 

After you two had finished, you set your cups aside and attempted to go to sleep again. You were right, the tea had made you much more drowsy now, your eyes were practically forcing themselves shut. You let your eyes fall shut, letting the darkness consume you. 

That didn’t last for long however.

Just then, an ear-splitting bang sounded, once again caused by the thunder. Your body instinctively jerked and your eyes jolted open. Even Kazuha felt it. 

He turned himself over so he was facing you. “Did that clap of thunder awaken you?” 

You groaned with frustration and nodded. “I’m sorry I woke you Kazu, I don’t sleep very well in thunderstorms.” 

Kazuha shook his head, “Don’t be sorry, it’s not your fault.” He spoke softly, his eyes laced with concern. 

You nodded, smiling. “How are you always able to sleep soundly with this kind of weather?” You questioned him, curious about how it doesn’t wake him. 

Kazuha chuckled with amusement, “Did you forget I used to spend my days riding the Crux? Where there was nothing but rainy weather?” 

You scoffed with sarcasm, “Oh sorry! Forgive me, I completely forgot your ears are used to listening to over 100 decibels of loud thunder, forgive me Kazuha.” 

Kazuha snorted, quickly covering his mouth which made you grin widely. 

“Jokes aside-” Kazuha started, catching his breath, “I understand sleeping through a thunderstorm can be quite difficult believe me. Hold on, let me try something.” 

You gazed at your boyfriend, puzzled by what he was going to do. He got his phone and scrolled through his apps until he found Spotify. He opened the app and played the song ‘Sweet’ by Cigarettes After Sex. He put the song on loop and placed his phone on the nightstand. 

You grinned, “You must really love this song, huh?” 

Kazuha immediately nodded, “It’s a very soothing song, it always calms me. It’s similar to waves on the shore of a beach, the sound as they delicately sway into the sand and fall back.” 

You smiled at his description. As you focused on the song and how the melody flowed smoothly, it almost did remind you of the beach. 

Kazuha’s arms found your waist and gently pulled you into his chest. He hid his face in the crook of your neck, gently planting a kiss on your jaw. You hummed in contentment, pulling Kazuha’s body closer. You rested your head on top of his, letting your arms snake around his waist. 

“Sleep well, my prince,” Kazuha whispered gently, before his eyes fluttered shut. 

A light shade of pink coated your cheeks as a reaction to the nickname. 

The sound of the rain, the melodic tune of ‘Sweet’ filling your ears, and Kazuha’s warm scent of home brought you to sleep.

“Same to you, my king.” You muttered quietly, before letting your eyes finally rest.

 

It’s so sweet… knowing that you love me. Though we don’t need to say it to each other, sweet…’
