Have another Diakko fic because the world deserves love *breaks into tears*
Disclaimre: I don't own LWA!
"I can hold the who-o-le world in my hands!"
Amanda nearly gagged when Akko put her little hands together and cupped Diana by her cheeks. But of course, the way the blonde witch turned red was totally worth the cringe.
"And that," Diana sighed, "is our cue to go."
The faint clinks of glasses mixed with mirthful chatter had died down at this point of the evening. Lotte nursed her eggnog with care, "it is getting pretty late."
And so here they were, two sets of crunchy footfalls in the snow, a slender brunette supported by a taller blonde both gracefully staggering—it still amazed her that that was possible—home.
"Did I embarrass you?" Akko pouted, steadying herself so that she could stand on her own.
"You would never," was Diana's punctual reply. She reached for Akko's hand on instinct, clasping them together with a pleasant familiarity. "But perhaps lay it off on the bourbon next time."
"Hah!" Akko flushed. "Get me a bottle of sake. I would demolish you all!"
Diana shot her a pointed look, but Akko merely giggled.
And then her knees buckled. Diana was quick to catch her by the arms, breaking Akko's fall while concern bubbled up inside her. Akko was laughing.
"I—I'm sorry." She snickered. "You were right about the bourbon."
"Akko."
"Will you carry me?"
Of course, Diana was impressive at an innumerable number of things, but— "Akko, I literally cannot."
"The great Diana Cavendish!" Akko exaggerated a look of surprise, clinging on to Diana's arm. "Has she finally found her weakness?"
She wasn't exactly wrong.
"Come on. We're just a few steps away," Diana slides her hand back into Akko's, bumping her playfully by the shoulder.
Akko throws her a childish expression. "Diana! I want you to carry m—eep!" The brunette squeaks. Before she knows it, Diana's arm was behind her knees, knocking the air out of her lungs while she hoisted her up with much effort.
Akko's laugh was captivating.
Her arms wound around Diana's neck, and her nose smushed against the side of Diana's face. "I love you," Akko giggled into her temple, sealing the words with a kiss. The brunette nuzzled into the other woman's neck, appreciative of her warmth, and the blonde witch could feel Akko's smile against her skin.
The smile was contagious. "You're heavy, Akko."
'I love you, too.'
The blonde pretends to whine, but she will carry Akko home—because Diana was Diana, and she was holding the whole world in her arms.
A/N: This was inspired by a post I saw on Tumblr of Akko doing the cute world-in-my-hands thing to Diana. I hope I find it again so I can credit the OG poster! Let me know what you think in the reviews! *heart*
