Hello! so I'm just making this so people can get to know my writing style :3
~
This is a Diluc x Venti story in which Venti gets very drunk at Diluc's bar and confesses his secret attraction to Diluc whilst they are alone. Diluc, after feeling thoroughly annoyed that Venti insists on staying after closure, reciprocates those feelings in a very straightforward manner. This story is called A Drunkard's confession, enjoy. :)

It was late in the evening in mondstat, lights in the city buildings were beginning to dim as the city slowly began to drift to sleep. The drunk men left their respective bars to return home to their very unimpressed wives. However, on that peaceful night, one man remained, except this one didn't have a wife.
"O-one more round, mr bartender!" *hicc* a very out-of-it Venti spoke as he let out a small chuckle, however, the stoic Diluc folded his arms and glared down at Him. Diluc, did not respond, and instead waited for Venti to get the memo but Venti just smiled at him and waited for him to pour him another shot. Diluc grunted and took Venti's empty glass and began to wash it up, turning his back on the desperate Venti.
"h-hey!" the drunkard blurt out in frustration. Venti tried to reach behind the counter to grab any alcoholic beverage he could manage to pick up but instead in his intoxicated state, he accidently groped Diluc's rear end. that unexpected touch caused Diluc to turn around and give the man a confused yet annoyed glare. Venti stared into Diluc's downturned eyes before sitting himself up straight and smiling at him. Diluc then realised that this man won't take a hint, so he sighed and turned around and lent against the counter.
"Venti, the tavern closed half an hour ago," Diluc spoke as he pointed to a sign on the wall. "I'm not going to serve you any more drinks, leave." Venti made a pouting face before he opened his mouth.
"But I-I'm thirstyyyyy-yy," Venti's face formed into that of a small dog's as he leaned in closer to Diluc's face "Pretty please?"
"I'm afraid that's going to be a no." Diluc spoke as he let out another annoyed sigh. "everytime, every single fucking friday night he does this, tch." Diluc thought to himself. Diluc often found himself also wondering why he does this, maybe he's lonely? maybe I should engage in some small talk with him.
"So, do you have anywhere to go after this?" Diluc spoke out.
"A-are you assuming I'm homeless? Massssster Diluc?" Venti said with the confidence of Alcohol on the brain as he smirked.
"Well," Diluc began "Last time I checked you were homeless." Diluc rebutted as a small smirk began to form on his face as well. Venti paused for a moment, a little taken aback that the usual formal and well-put-together Diluc would make such a comment to a patron.
"Well, y-you could always... invite me back to your place, Master Diluc~" Venti chuckled a little at his clever remark.
Diluc pause and stared at Venti for a moment before turning around to polish some more glasses before speaking again.
"Already trying to get into my bed?" Diluc began "You haven't even kissed me yet." Venti felt very startled by that remark as he had no come back to that one. Venti then began to think of a plan of action before his thought process was interrupted by Diluc.
"Nothing else to say?" Diluc smirked from behind the counter as he thought surely this would drive Venti to leave promptly. But instead he was met by surprise as Venti nudged his shoulder and as Diluc turned around as he was pulled into a sloppy and drunk kiss by the shorter man. their lips parted after a second as Venti opened his mouth again.
