{Mention of Blood/Angst}
✿༻{Tighnari's POV}༺✿
4 weeks have passed by like an arrow, everyone doing their own thing when me and Collei just doing our same old job. Also for the last 2 weeks, Cyno has been acting weird and suspicious.. He has been fainting at least twice a week and his cloak soaked with blood, even though he says it isn't his blood..
I have a feeling that he is lying about the blood and saying that he's doing 'okay'.. If the Akademiya is trying to hurt him then he should tell me, I'll easily find away to get them to stop but since Cyno wants to be all secretive and stubborn all the time.. Looks like I have to follow him and find clues..
Right now I was just cooking lunch for me. Collei, and Cyno. Collei was the one who started 'having lunch together' idea but it was quite the good idea. I was making Mushroom Hodgepodge and Curry Shrimp for lunch, Collei helping me by setting up the table and Cyno was still not home yet..
I was putting the food on the table then I looked out the window, I saw Cyno walking toward the front door of the house. I see Cyno stop just standing a few inches away from the door until..
"Shit!! Cyno!" I said worried
I ran towards the front door and opened it to see him laying down fainted in front of me, I picked up Cyno and carried him to the couch. He was a bit heavy but I made it worked, I asked Collei to bring me a wet cloth
I moved Cyno's hair that covered his left eye then I put my hand on his forehead, I realized he had a fever. Collei gave me the cloth and I put it on Cyno's forehead, I slowly tried to take off his cloak but he quickly woke up and got up quickly
"Hey! Lay back down!" I said
"N-no it's fine Tighnari.."
"It's not fine!! You faint then you have a fever!" I said angrily
I saw Cyno with his eyes widen and I sighed
"At least go to your room, I'll be there to check up on you.." I said sadly
Cyno gets up and walks to his room to go lay down, I got up and walked towards a cabinet in the kitchen to grab a knife. I grabbed a mushroom with the basket I brought from somewhere and cut the mushroom into little pieces. I put the pieces of mushroom in a bowl and I went to Cyno's room.
I see Cyno laying down covering himself with the blanket and for some reason his pillow over his head. I grabbed the pillow and glared at Cyno for acting like a child for some reason
"Stop acting like a child, you idiot!!" I said madly
"Look Nari, I'm completely fine. You don't have to worry about me.." He said tiredly
I sighed "Well it's my job to make sure you are ok and not just being a stubborn idiot about it." I said then hit him on the head gently
I heard someone opened the door put the bowl of mushroom on the nightstand, I see Collei standing the the door with a worried look one her face.
"Is Cyno doing alright..?" Collei said sadly
"He's doing fine, Collei.. How about you have lunch without me and Cyno then just wait for me outside of the house.." I said
Collei leaves Cyno's room and I look at Cyno worried then I placed my hand on his cheek, sighing to myself. Cyno really can be reckless sometimes, even when he's not working and stuff..
I just stared at him..
I don't like seeing him hurt...
☁︎︎༻{Cyno's POV}༺☁︎︎
I put my hand over Tighnari's hand and just looked at the ceiling, I was getting nervous to look at Tighnari..
I know he was going to lecture me about how careless I am, but I just have to do my job..
I stared at Tighnari.. He looked like he was about to cry, it really breaks my heart to see him cry.. (Then cheer him up, you bit—)
"Hey Nari..?"
Tighnari stopped zoning out and said..
"Yes Cyno.." He said sadly
"I'm sorry for being careless with my life.. There's something that I've been thinking about and I can't get my mind off of it..." I said a bit worried
"Then what is it..? What has gotten you to come home all bloody and you fainting at random times.." He said
"I.. I can't tell you, Nari.."
"W-why not..?! Cyno we have been friends for a long time!!.. You can tell me anything and I'll help you with it..!!—"
"Nari... I'm just not comfortable with it.. but the only thing I can tell you is... It has to do something with the Akademiya.." I said
Tighnari just stayed silent then he got up and left.. I was wondering if I was doing anything wrong about telling him about the Akademiya being apart of this..
Tighnari came back with a med kit and some water—? I stared a bit at him before he sat down on my bed
He took out some bandages and lift up my shirt to see the wounds and some bruises, he had his head down so I couldn't see his face.
I saw little tears running down from his cheeks, I paused for a moment... I never saw him cry until now, I knew my actions have put me in danger before but... This is new..
I calmly pulled Tighnari into a hug while petting his ears softly as possible. We stayed hugging for a bit before pulling away from each other. Tighnari just sighed and continued to patch up my wounds, and I just stayed still as possible.
After Tighnari was done patching up my wounds, he pointed at the bowl of mushrooms. I sighed softly and grabbed the bowl of mushrooms and started eating them. Tighnari huffed happily to see me eating the mushrooms, he cut up for me.
He smiled softly at me and got up, then left my room to probably talk with Collei. Then he came back sat on my bed and then handed me the cup of water.
"I told Collei to give the other forest rangers a schedule of stuff that's needed to do. Also me and Collei are going to stay here until you feel better. Which means none of us are going to work, either you like it or not." He said
"Nari, you don't have to stay here just because I got very hurt..-"
"Shhhh. If I wanna stay then I wanna stay." He said
I looked away from him
"Whatever.." I said
Collei entered the room holding some medicine
"Here you go, Tighnari!" Collei said happily
I sighed happily, I knew that no matter how many times I tell them that I don't need anyone to take care for me. The reason behind it is a single sentence Collei said...
~Flashback started~
"It's because we're all family, Cyno!!" Collei said happily
"So don't you think we're going to let you die or something!! We're always here right by your side!" Collei said smiling
"Collei is right, Cyno.. We're all here for each other." Tighnari said
I sighed softly and chuckled a bit, Collei always find a way to cheer up anyone that's feeling down..
down...

✿༻{Tighnari's POV}༺✿
I went towards my room to get something, I grabbed it then went back to Cyno's room. I sat down on the floor next to Collei and opened the book. It was a book about us, I took notes about huge and little thing about us, also my relationship with all my other friends like Nilou, Alhaitham, Lisa, Kaveh, Layla, and etc..
"What you got there, dad-?" Collei said pausing for a moment after hearing what she said
"I-I'M SORRY, TIGHNAR-"
'It's completely fine Collei, you called me and Cyno 'dad' so many times we gotten used to it!" I chuckled softly
"He's right.." Cyno added
Collei look at us with embarrassment in her face, she really didn't have parents nor she never talked about her parent's after Dottore took her...
So me and Gyno never really know anything about Collei's real parents.. I guess it makes sense when people think me and Cyno are her actual parents cause of the green streaks of my hair and Cyno's white grayish hair..
I turned to a page in the book that contains everyone's like and dislikes of food, When I first met Cyno really liked rice, meat, dried nuts and yogurt that's all mixed together, as for Alhaitham we didn't hang out much often but now he try's to visit more often to mostly see Nahida and Collei. (He still questions cyno's taste in food)
Both Collei and Cyno peeked at the page I was on, Collei had an amazed expression but also a embarrassed one. While with Cyno just stares at me with a blank expression. I chuckled a bit and stared back at Collei who flipped to another page on the book.
We continued flipping through pages of the book going through pages of fun times. We continued for at least 2 hours until I look to my shoulder to see Collei laying her head on it, while sleeping soundly. I looked toward Cyno to still see him wide awake.
"Hey Nari..." Cyno said
"Yes Cyno?" I said
"I'm grateful for you and Collei being here.." He said softly
"It's nothing, Cyno.. We're 'friends', and friends always take care of each other.." *I said tiredly
"Just take better care of yourself, ok?" I said quietly to him
Cyno stayed silent for a bit before speaking again..
"I'll try not to get hurt but I can't promise I won't get hurt again.." Cyno said calmly but also a bit of strictness
I nodded softly before placing the book on the nightstand and carrying Collei to her bedroom. I walked back in Cyno room to still see him awake and then I closed the door behind me.
"Still not sleepy I see?" I said softly
"Yeah.." He said quietly
I look outside the window in his room, I thought about something and wondered where is Sora..?
I looked back at Cyno about to ask him a question but until I saw him dead asleep. I sighed softly to myself and thought for a minute before I heard the door open. I looked back and saw her..
"Hi there Nari.." Sora said slowly but also mischievously
"Hi there kiddo.." I said quietly
"I was just checking up with you guys." She said smiling a bit
"I see but why so late at night." I said getting suspicious of them
"I got caught up with something but it's not important." She said smirking slightly
I stared at them feeling uncomfortable aurora coming off from them.. I didn't know what to do or say, I just stood there looking at them with silence.. I was about to break the silence until he was the one who broke the silence..
"I hope to see you in Mondstadt someday.. Actually very soon.." He said turning away, walking out the Cyno's room opening door then closing it behind them
I didn't do anything, I just let them walk out instead of asking for answer's or something.. I should've asked where did she come from or what did she actually want instead of trying to be nice...
What I did found suspicious is a big leaf or petal apart of a whopperflower having a faded red color. I saw it falling out of her pocket from their skirt, it was folded into a little piece.. It was about a week ago when that happened..
I sighed softly to myself not knowing what to do now, I was frustrated with a lot of stuff but I knew I had to stay calm.. Sora is also getting way to comfortable with Collei.. It's like they met before but just Collei doesn't remember and only Sora..
If Sora does know Collei then that means... I rather not think about it to be honest, I turned off the lights and then left Cyno's room. Then I walked towards my room and open the door then closing it behind me.
I went towards my bookshelf and grabbing a book that was filed with picture from when me. Cyno, Alhaitham, Kaveh, and Lisa were still in the Akademiya. It was quite a long time ago, I can barely remember anything of what happened at the time.
I opened the book and started going through the pages filled with pictures with them, chuckling softly to myself. I continued looking through the pages until one page fell out of the book, I picked it up to see..
Cyno and a younger kid that looks like him..
A thought came into my head...
