The crimes of Diluc Ragnvindr

Childhood

Kaeya and Albedo went back to Monstadt together.

Albedo had his hand interlocked with Kaeya's.

They walked through the gates and went to the knights barracks where he resides.

Albedo entered his room with him and helped Kaeya to sit down on the bed.

"Tell me.. Why you were emotional when I found you. "

Kaeya started to undress down to just his pants.

Albedo assisted a bit, " I'd like for your to enlighten to me. I won't force you though."
He says gently pulling the eye patch off Kaeya's face.

Kaeya quickly closed that eye.

Albedo touched his face, cupping it with one hand, " I like your eyes.  They're two different shades of vibrant blue. One as bright as ice  and the other a just like the ocean. "

Kaeya felt his heart melt with Albedo's  words, blush flooding his face as he opened his other eye.

Albedo kissed his head then sat next to him

Kaeya leans against him, " I.. It was about my father I was having THOSE memories again. "

Albedo developed  a concerned look across his face, "Diluc bring it up? "

"Sort of.. I don't want to go into it any further I'm sorry. ".

Albedo took his jacket off and his gloves.. He removed his shirt and shoes laying down.

Kaeya laid with him cuddling against Albedo's chest.

Albedo planted a kiss on Kaeya's head.
" are you aware of just how great my affection is towards you? "
He smiled hearing a slight laugh come from Kaeya.

"Yeah I love you too. " Kaeya said softly. He gave an upwards glance at Albedo, his glance was met with a kiss to his lips.

Eventually they fell asleep in that exact position.

Kaeya woke early.. He moved off of Albedo careful not to wake him.
He dressed himself quickly.

Albedo woke up and immediately sat up because Kaeya was no longer laying on him. His eyes darted across the room until they were met with Kaeya's.

He let out a small sigh, " ...I would of liked you to of woken me before leaving. "

"Darling I haven't left yet.. I know how you feel about that. I didn't see sense in waking you while I was getting dressed. "

Albedo nods a bit.. He looked away from Kaeya just peering motionless at the wall.

He somewhat struggled with the feeling of being abandoned, but Kaeya completely understood knowing that exact feeling well.

Kaeya walked over to him, kissing him lightly, "I'm still here.. I would never leave you. "

Albedo smiled and hugged Kaeya some.. He then stood and also started to dress himself.

"I'm supposed to meet Bennett for morning training you're welcome to join me.. There's a chance Bennett might not even show. "  Kaeya says grabbing for Albedos hand.

Albedo shook his head, "I have a meeting with Jean about my findings on dragonspine as of recent.  I might join you later though. " he replied take Kaeya's hand in his own.

They walked out together then went their separate ways.

Bennett showed up on time.

Kaeya smiled greeting him cheerfully, "Benny! I'm so glad you felt well enough to train with me today. "

Bennett didn't exactly seem like his usual chipper self, all he gave in reply was a subtle nod taking out his sword.

This look really concerned Kaeya.. He pauses then put a hand on Bennett's shoulder.. " did my actions last night frighten you.. Diluc probably told you I'd accused him of-... I'm sorry I'm just.. Sensitive to it. "

Bennett tilts his head a bit, " Why is that.. And no I'm just tired is all. Not feeling my most Bennett-eey self. "

Kaeya sighs sitting down, "sit here with me. "

Bennett sat next to him ready to listen to what ever Kaeya had to say.

"When I was young.. I found myself lost.. I was taken in by Diluc's father who soon also became my father.. " Kaeya took a short pause,

"Many things about myself displeased him.. My hair, my eyes, my skin.. All of it were faults in his eyes. "
He took another pause

" I might of been.. 12 or 13 when he started taking me into his room.. Or his study.. Since I wasn't his real son he.. He could do things to me, like.. Dirty things inappropriate touching. "

Kaeya took a longer pause tears coming to his eye, " um.. He'd say things like,  this makes me happy, don't you want to make me happy? .. Don't you want to be my son? This is what it takes to get my approval.. "

Bennett looked down now gently rocking himself "... I'm so sorry Kaeya.. "

Kaeya wipes his face, "hey.. That's okay. I'm still sorry I freaked out a little on Diluc last night. "

Bennett nods, "that's okay Kaeya. I understand. Let's get to training please. "

They started training

Not too long after Albedo joined them not long after..

Kaeya stopped and looked at him, " Benny! This is Albedos.. I don't know if you two have ever formally met. "

Albedo nods, "hello Bennett. Nice to meet you. "

"Hi Albedo.. It's  nice to meet you too."

Kaeya put an arm around Albedo, "he's my boyfriend. "

Bennett giggled a bit, "aww! Kaeyaaa I didn't know you had a boyfriendddd "

He hugged Kaeya a little, " I should be getting back soon. "

"Alright hurry back and be safe Benny. "

Bennett nods and quickly left back to the winery.

Once back he went to Diluc's room.

Diluc looked at him, then got close to him picking him up and groping his legs a little, "did you have a good time? "

Bennett hugged him some, "... Kaeya said that your da-"

"It's not true.. Well not entirely." Diluc said quickly

Bennett frowns, "I- Kaeya seemed.. So upset"

"Kaeya... Kaeya is a huge liar and he makes a bigger deal out of things than they are Bennett.. Maybe you shouldn't hang around him anymore. I could probably train you better than he ever could."

"N-no! I love training with Kaeya.. I'm sorry I'm sorry I won't talk about it anymore!! "

Diluc crossed his arms, "I don't know."

Bennett nuzzled Diluc, ".. Please.. "

Diluc set Bennett down, "well alright.. " he moved his hands along Bennett's sides. "I know I can't trust you.. Don't ever break my trust. "

Bennett nods gently.. He felt conflicted. "Is.. What we're doing.. Wrong? "

"Of course not! What we're doing is normal.. I promise. "
