Venti X Male Reader: To Forgive or to Kill

Chapter 9: An Offer

Venti opens the door for (Y/N) and bows with his hand behind his back.

The boy smirks then taps Venti's forehead with the back of his fingers.

"Welcome back sweethearts, what'll it be?"

Red spread on the boys cheek and the Bard said reluctantly.
"one dandelion wine and a water for my pup, he's walking me home tonight."
The Bard then pulled a stool out for the boy to which he sat.

"So (Y/N) you ready to pay your tab?" Godot asked.

"Uh well little by little eh heh." The boy placed the coin purse on the counter.
Godot picked it up
"Good now your back ten but including the drink your up again at 35,010 mora."

"*Sigh* and I thought this is a place to forget." The boy said.

"Aw cheer up puppy we'll pay it little by little" the bard said and stirred a glass of wine then sipped.

"Who knows we might even be able to afford a double bed." The bard said seductively, but the boy didn't react as his mind was elsewhere which made the bard pout afterward at his failed attempt at teasing.

'I can't pay it off with the amount I made in one day. No place accepted me and I practically asked in the centre of the city. I only made 10 mora and that was just an odd job. The average minimum pay is 10 mora an hour. Wait is there interest on the tab?! OH GODS!' The boy existentially thought.

"What's up with the kid?" Godot asked.

"Oh nothing he just banged his head today is all." Venti took another sip tracing his finger on the rim of the glass.

The door opened and a familiar face entered.

"Xiao buddy come here!" The bard opened his arms expecting Xiao to hug him.
To which Xiao just ignored him and sat down beside Venti.

"Aw your no fun..." Venti pouted.

"What's with the mortals head?" Xiao pointed at the boys bandages.

"Oh I took him on his first quest today and my puppy got hit pretty hard, but he'll be fine I wrapped it up and put some wine on it. All better." The bard made a heart with his hands.

"Hmm... Mortal you okay?" Xiao asked the boy instead.

"Hey I just answered for him!" Venti Shouted.

The boy finally was taken out of his financial existentialism and realized Xiao was siting behind Venti.

"Oh hi master Xiao, don't worry just my mind wandered off." The boy reassured.

"You know each other?! °Д°" Venti interjected.

"Oh well yeah who do you think carried you home?" (Y/N) answered.

Xiao put both his hands on the boys cheeks.

The boy's face became red.
"Master Xiao what are you-"

"Sssh" Xiao placed his forehead on (Y/N)'s forehead.

"You don't have a fever you'll live." Xiao moved back to his stool.

"Hey don't touch my puppy, only I can do that!" Venti Shouted.

"Oh thank you Master Xiao."

"We gotta talk about the master thing. We can't both be master because obviously you like me more than Xiao so I should get a higher title don't you think puppy?"
Venti demanded.

"Oh sorry I don't label people that way over each other it's just a prefix is all" (Y/N) chuckled.

"I prefer lord Venti or Prince Venti, or daddy Vent-" the boy covered the bards mouth quickly before he could finish.
