“Who’re you?”

Venti asked, faced with two taller males. One of them his bestfriend, Zhongli whilst the other was a ginger he wasn’t quite sure of.


”This is childe, my-“


”The names Childe, but Ajax for you!”


Childe flirted, tipping up Ventis chin and receiving a scowl from zhongli.


”Tartaglia, I would prefer if you didn’t flirt with my bestfriend.”

Zhongli glared, only to receive a mischievous look from the harbinger.


”Wait, what’s your name?Is it Ajax, tartaglia or Childe?” Venti asked, completely missing childe’s intentions and asking innocently to which zhongli sighed. He adored Venti and his innocence, the way he protected the life around him and it’s freedom. Not to mention how beautiful the anemo user was, those long eyelashes and thin hips, pretty pale skin which flushed when it was too cold.

 He wasn’t going to let Childe’s aggresive tendencies anywhere near Venti. Zhongli would do anything in his power to keep Venti pure.


”It’s Ajax, or atleast that’s what you can call me.”


”That’s a pretty name, my name is Venti!”, Venti said, a bright and unsuspecting smile on his face. He was too good for everybody else, zhongli thought. If anybody would get to love Venti one day and be entrusted with him, it shouldn’t  be Childe.


”Well, you’re a sweet one. I didn’t know you had such a cutie as your companion, Zhongli. Ya know, if you ever wanna get drinks, I’m down.”

”With my supervision, of course.” To which zhongli received a frown.


”Woah, alright!” Venti said, nodding his head. Zhongli seemed a bit hostile, but the redhead seemed nice.

At the bar, Venti was spoiled with drinks from the rich snezhnayan. Though now that he thought of it, none of the two men seemed to be drunk, ordering more drinks. 

Venti was sipping from his jug, swinging his legs on the bar stool as his face turned a pretty pink from the alcohol. He was approached by a tall man, not as tall as zhongli, but he looked strong. Venti didn’t recognise them, he didn’t really know anybody in liyue.


”Youre a cutie, how about we go home, have some fun?”, The man asked, but received no reply from venti who was still sipping at his jug. It seemed Childe had noticed their conversation, pulling at ventis hip so the back of the bards head was pressed against Childes head, the ginger putting a hand down on the counter.


”I don’t think that’ ll be necessary, he’s actually mine.

Childe hummed, a slight strain to his voice. The man backed off whilst Venti looked at the two familiar faces behind him.


”Hi lili, Ajax!”


”He gets a nickname and I don’t?” Childe frowned, crossing his arms which to zhongli let out a subtle smirk.


”I didn’t know you wanted one.. What about aj?”,Venti asked sweetly, as to which Childe gave ah enthusiast nod. Once again, Childe had taken another thing from zhongli. Venti was a delicate flower, which Zhongli would protect with his heart, but Childe just wished to derive it of it’s nutrients, to be the only one to water it.


The ginger continued to entertain Venti, drunken giggles emitting from the bard. Venti was happy, so zhongli was content. He just needs to make sure Childe didn’t make any moves on his beloved.


”Mmn.. I’m tired.” Venti yawned, as to which Childe nodded, scooping the hard up into a princess style carry.


”Then.. let’s go home, princess!”Childe chuckled, leading Venti out of the bar as to which Zhongli followed. He led Venti to his own apartment, almost closing the door on zhongli and cocking an eyebrow at the adeptus.


”You must be mad if you think I’m letting you stay alone with Venti.”Zhongli said, knowing Childe would probably take advantage of the clueless bard. Childe huffed, letting Zhongli is and laying Venti down onto a bed, the bard already fast asleep as Childe caressed his cheek.


”Leave him alone and sleep in a different room, I don’t trust you.” Zhongli scowled, to which Childe stuck up his middle finger, eventually leaving the room.


Zhongli removed his jacket, getting into bed next to Venti. He wasn’t actually going to sleep, he would guard the sleeping bard with his life.


he took off ventis hat and shoes, putting them to the side along with his cape, putting ventis head on his lap and stroking his hair softly, taking in each puff or snore from the bard.


Zhongli really did love Venti, just his presence enough to make Zhonglis day.

From behind the door, Childe was looking at the room, despising Zhongli for ruining his advances, he could’ve been watching the bard sleep. Venti was too good for Zhongli, he deserved someone who knew his worth, like Childe.

Venti would never have to fight again, Childe would protect him.

Venti would never had to work again, Childe would provide for him.

Venti would never sing again, his voice would be childe’s.
