Y/n is sitting on the bed patiently waiting for Diluc. Even though the surprise for him wasn't actually planned, she was still looking forward to having a date with him, she never had a date like this with anyone. She finally hears a knock, and jumps off the bed excited to see Diluc. When she opens the door, she looks up to see a different man in front of her, it was Childe

Y/n: y-you?! Get the hell out!
Childe: listen... I've only come here to apologise for my behaviour from yesterday...
Y/n: ...I'm listening!
Childe: here...

Childe picks up a tray from the table aside from him, on the tray is a teapot with some teacups placed on it.

Childe: would it be ok if I could apologise over a drink?
Y/n: this isn't another move is it?!
Childe: no, I swear this is a legitimate apology

Y/n steps away from the door and let's him in. He nods his head in thanks and places the tray down on the table.

Childe: I just wanted you to know that my actions from yesterday aren't like me... I never flirt with a girl like that... so I'm sorry that you were the one to see me on such a disappointing tone
Y/n: why did you treat me so poorly?
Childe: honestly I had a little to drink and was hoping to just find someone to... seduce... it isn't like me... I know I can't truly make up for it... but I'm hoping this is a start

They sit down and Childe passes an already poured cup of tea to y/n.

Y/n: I suppose it is a start...
Childe: so umm... Zhongli told me you are actually a descendant of Bosacius?
Y/n: h-he did?
Childe: yeah. I've always been fascinated by the strength of the Yaksha, and the hidden mystery of Bosacius. Glad to have found out some answers

Y/n takes a sip of the tea

Y/n: yeah well, I only know so much
Childe: well maybe you can try and answer this one question for me?
Y/n: what is it?
Childe: how strong, are you really?
Y/n: I... I'm not sure I-

Y/n starts to feel dizzy, she holds her head with her hand. And her vision was starting to go fuzzy

Y/n: what's going on?
Childe: are you ok?
Y/n: I don't know? Maybe I sat down too quickly

Childe smirks at her as she looks up at him.

Y/n: what did you do to me?!
Childe: just thought you could use a rest...

Y/n tried to get up and leave but she collapses on the ground and drops the cup,  as she tries to crawl away. Childe then walks in front of her and crouches down to face her

Childe: thanks for answering my question. I suppose you aren't strong enough to fight this

Y/n passes out on the floor. Childe lifts her up and takes her out of the room. A while later Diluc heads back to the hotel and makes his way up the stairs. When he turns the corner to the room, he sees the door wide open. With panic in his eyes, he sees the room is empty, and the broken teacup on the floor, it was clear something bad had happened.

Diluc POV

I rush down the stairs back to the reception desk. I shout at the woman there asking if she saw a woman with y/n's description. Her response terrified me.

Woman: why yes, I saw a man carrying her away, apparently she had a bit too much to drink, and he went to take her to the pharmacy for something to help her
Diluc: what did the man look like?!
Woman: umm he had grey clothing, ginger hair? Oh and a hydro vision
