"Alright. I'll see you guys there at 8."

"What to wear." You murmured as you looked into your closet. It's not like you were expecting to run into Diluc but there was a chance that he would be there as well and you didn't want to look like a slob. You wanted to show him that you were doing fine without him.

As you found the perfect outfit to wear the phone that was laying on your bed rang. Grabbing the phone you saw the caller I.D say 'Venti'.

"What's up large Starbucks drink." You said with a smirk on your face. The sounds of Venti letting out an annoyed sigh came through the phone. He absolutely hated when you called him that, and you knew it.

"We are almost at the bar. When will you be there?" You told him that you were just getting your clothes on and to give you 20 minutes. "Awesome. We have like 15 minutes. See you soon!" Venti cheerfully shouted and you both said your goodbyes.

After all these months you were finally at the doors of Angel Share. Memories of the last time you were here ran through your mind. You hoped with all your heart that he wouldn't be working today. Mustering up all your courage, you walked through the door as the smell of alcohol hits you.

Scanning the room you saw your friends sitting at the far corner of the bar that seemed to be closed off from the rest of the people. At the counter stood Diluc who was chatting with some older men that sat near him. Once he heard the bell ring he looked over to greet the customer, only Diluc wasn't expecting it to be you. Ignoring the sinking feeling in your chest, you made your way to your friends with a strained smile.

Venti quickly pulled up a chair besides him and his friend who was yet to be introduced. "Y/N." Said Kaeya who had gotten up and given you a tight hug. "How have you been?" He asked as he departed. As you chatted with the rest of the group and got introduced to Rosaria, Diluc watched the whole interaction between you and his brother with jealousy in his eyes.

Diluc clenched the glass in his hand and slammed it down with a loud bang. People nearby let out a gasp. "Sorry." He mumbled. Just because what had happened you were going after his brother now? He breathed in deeply and put on his best smile. Diluc was going to figure this out for himself.

One of his employees started to make their way over but Diluc stopped them by putting a hand on their back. "I got this one, don't worry about it. How about you go take another table?" He pointed to a table on the opposite side of the room. Without a second thought, the employee happily went over to the other group.

Putting on his game face, Diluc walked over to the table with a notebook and pen in hand. He stood right behind you. "Hello everyone. What can we get started for you tonight." Your back stiffened as you felt his presence.

You looked at Venti with a wide eyes. Why would he come over to this specific table? As everyone said their orders you had said nothing. "Y/N? Are you going to order?" Said Kaeya. You shook your head and told them you were just going to stick with water. Diluc quickly walked away and got the drinks ready. The whole time he was glaring down the table, more specifically, his brother.

After mostly everyone got a couple drinks in their system they had all started to get a little loud. People around the table looked at your friend group with a glare. Someone had walked up to Diluc and complained that 'the table in the back was making a ruckus'. Diluc sighed, knowing that this was going to happen.

As Diluc made his way over someone shouted out his name.

"Diluc!" Slurred Venti as he stood up with a wine bottle in hand. How did he even get that? "How dare you come over here!" Diluc watched as you tried to get the short man to calm down, but no avail.

"Venti!" You whisper yelled while grabbing his arm and trying to pull him back. Venti pulled your hand off him and stumbled up to Diluc and looked up.

"You are such a mean person!" He slurred again while harshly pointing at his chest. "Why would you do that to poor Y/N!" You had realized what was about to go down. Before it could get worse you grabbed both of Venti's shoulders and pulled him back.

Diluc stayed quiet and watched as the scene in front of him unfolded. He saw the panicked look in your eyes as you pulled Venti back while he yelled more obscenities at him.

You had finally gotten Venti behind you as he yelled out one last final thing. "How could you just leave her like that Diluc! You told me you liked her! You don't deserve her!" Your face was turning red from all the embarrassment.

"Venti." Said Diluc sternly.

"And don't even get me started on other things Diluc. I'm so disappointed in you." His eyes widened slightly. That is what struck Diluc the hardest. Venti was disappointed in him?

Kaeya looked between you and Diluc and made an 'o' with his mouth. This must've been the person who Diluc was interested in. Even though he doesn't talk to his brother that much, Venti told Kaeya all about him.

"Y/N. A moment?" Said Diluc. You nodded and sheepishly followed him to the same room as before. The one where you had that conversation. 

"Listen. I'm sorry." You started. "If I knew he was going to be like that we would of never came here in the first place."

"Honestly Y/N, you shouldn't have came here in the first place." He said harshly. Excuse you?

A scoffed escaped past your lips. "What?" You said. "I came here because I wanted to have fun with my friends, not to ridicule you. Honestly Diluc." You said mocking his tone. "Did you really think I came here for you? Lets be real here." You said while stepping closer to him. "I would never come for you."

You watched as his lips formed a smirk. "But you have."

"Oh fuck you Diluc."

"Technically..."

"Shut up!" You yelled. You could feel yourself getting angrier by the minute.

Diluc leaned down to your level and looked you in the eyes. "Make me." Grabbing his face, you pulled him close to close the gap between you.
