The crimes of Diluc Ragnvindr

Adventurer

Bennett was walking through the gates of Monstadt.

He was coming back from the winery, he'd been staying there with Diluc.

He enjoyed being around him.. Diluc had began to feel like a father to him.

Bennett was smiling, he had training to do, he was quickly walking to the Knights Of Favonius head quarters.

He pushed the doors open, "KAEYAAA! I'm here! I'm ready to train and get to it! "

Kaeya gave Bennett a soft smile, "Benny! I'm so glad you're so excited. You're pretty late today though, are you okay? "

"Of course I'm okay.. I just had a farther walk I've been staying with Diluc you know. "

" oh well that's quite the walk Bennett. Through some somewhat dangerous places. "

Bennett rubbed the back of his head some, "heh- don't worry about that, I'm real tough, I'll kick those stupid monsters in their equally as stupid faces! "

Kaeya gave little chuckle, "well those monsters should quiver in fear at the sight of a future knight and famous adventurer like yourself. "

Bennett grabbed Kaeya's arm, "c'mon! Let's get started!! We don't have all day! "

--- after a couple hours of training Diluc approached them.--

Diluc watched them for a couple minutes before Kaeya noticed him.

Kaeya walked over, "hey dillydo whatcha up to. "

Diluc shook his head a bit, "don't call me that.. I'm here to walk Bennett home with me. I'd rather he didn't walk alone in the dark. "

Kaeya playfully punched Dilucs arm, "aw you know Benny boy could take care of himself out there.. But it's awful nice of you to walk him. "

Diluc gently moved away from Kaeya as Bennett went over to him.

Diluc gave Bennett a smile, "let's go. "

Bennett giggles and gently grabbed Diluc's arm tightly as they walked off.

They left the gates and Diluc rubbed Bennett's back, "you have fun today? "

" yeah! Kaeya always teaches me so much! Today we actually sparred and I almost really won!! "

Diluc nods, "I'm sure you would of. Maybe Kaeya was being too rough. I'm sure he's at my tavern now over indulging in dandelion wine. "

".. Kaeya is better than you make him out to be Diluc.. He's your brother and you should spend more time with him. "

"Oh Bennett you're too sweet. . . I know Kaeya loves having you around. "

Bennett smiled and laid his head gently against Diluc's arm. It was dark and they were half way there.

Bennett shivered a bit as a soft breeze blew against them.

Diluc noticed his shudder and took his jacket off, he put it on Bennett and pets his head, " there"

Bennett looked up at him, "heh it's warm."

They walked to the Winery and Diluc let them in.. Diluc had a room of his own in the winery and that's where he'd been staying.

They walk into that room and Diluc closed the door he pulled his jacket off of Bennett and hung it up.

Bennett took off his shoes with his back facing Diluc..

Diluc came behind him gently embracing him. He rubbed Bennett's arms, "are you hungry? "

Bennett nods, " I could eat." He leans into Diluc.

Diluc let go of Bennett and had some food prepared for them
They sat at the table.. The staff had gone home and the cooks were cleaning up in the kitchen a bit.

Leaving Bennett and Diluc alone.

Diluc pats his lap a bit

Bennett sits on him and started eating, "wow! This is really good.. Such good food here." He continues to eat then look at him with his mouth full, "you make a comfy seat. "

Diluc smiled a bit, " don't speak with your mouth full. "

This wasn't out of the ordinary.. Bennett had been staying here for a while and he'd learned Diluc liked to be rather.. Affectionate.

Bennett didn't mind.. He thought that just closenend their bond.

Diluc watched Bennett eat, he thought everything Bennett did was absolutely adorable.
He likes taking care of him, and having him around.

Bennett was young, 16, to be exact he'd never really had anyone want to care for him the way Diluc did.. He trusted Diluc completely.

Diluc's motives weren't totally pure. Though he cared for Bennett and only wanted the best for him.. He also took advantage of his vulnerability and young mind.

He wipes Bennett's mouth with a cloth, "finished? "

Bennett nods.

Diluc made a face at him.

Bennett frowns, "what? "

"You smell a bit. "

"Oh.. Well.. I just need a bath.. I got hot during training.. I sweat a lot. "

" we could bathe together. "

"Are you sure.. That might be kinda awkward.. "

"Only if you make it awkward Bennett. "

Bennett got up, "oh- well in that case.. Let's get to it! "

Diluc took him to the room then through another door into the master bathroom that also had a large tub.

He filled the bath and looked at Bennett, watching him undress.

Bennett felt embarrassed.. But he didn't want to make it weird..
Diluc had been pretty close and he thought this would be okay.. He got in the bath.

Diluc undressed as well and got in with him, he let his long red hair down.

Bennett looked at him and gently touched his hair, "wow- I don't think I've ever seen it down! It looks cool".

Diluc nods a little and put his arm around Bennett, " go ahead and wash up. "

Bennett started to clean himself

He felt diluc touch his back, "you missed a place.. Let me help you with the hard to reach places. "

Bennett didn't stop him.. He felt Diluc's hand rub up and down his back softly, he Shivers a little.

After their bath Diluc wrapped a towel around Bennett then himself and took him to the bed.

Bennett dried off and went to dress in his pajamas.. After doing so he climbed into the bed and watched Diluc drying off.
He laid down then felt Diluc lay with him.. He stayed facing away closing his eyes. "Good night Diluc , sleep good.. I hope you have amazing dreams "

Diluc gave Bennett's head a soft kiss, "good night Bennett. '
