Bow and Arrow | Diluc Ragnvindr x GN! Reader

ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ 𝟷𝟻: ᴛᴏsᴋᴀ

The night was young and people are still having fun in taverns and hanging around each other. Grass fields filled with dragonflies that fly away if you step closer to them create such a fantastical look in Mondstadt. People are having fun talking to each other, except for two people walking towards their houses.

"Who is this, Kamisato Ayato?"

The way Diluc said that, with a voice so full of emotion that Y/N is unable to identify it, surprised them. Something about his voice and his aura right now scares Y/N a little bit. It seems like they'll need to say something. 

"Well, my father has business in Inazuma, and the Kamisato clan is one of our business partners. It's more like they order papers and books from us, and they've been doing that since my grandfather's era," Y/N explained, gulping after clarifying something. Their foreheads frowned when they saw how Diluc looked. "Kamisato Ayato is the current head of this clan, so he's pretty important." 

They looked at their watch and gasped. "Shit, sorry, Diluc, I forgot I have some meetings with Jean and Lisa. Excuse me." Y/n started running; they ran so fast that the path left some dust along. Diluc looked at their backs slowly disappearing and sighed, walking back to his own manor. 

The man was kicking the rock beneath him, and he sighed. "Why am I feeling this way?" He murmured, seeing a cat on the side of the road. Crouching down and slowly letting it go towards him, petting its head slowly. "Hmm, lucky you. You only need to sleep when you don't want to do anything." The cat meowed at him, and he chuckled. 

He remembered what Y/n said again earlier, and he knows Y/n doesn't seem to be excited about it, but they seem to be the same with everything. He doesn't know what to think of it anymore. The man knows that he and Y/N don't have any sort of relationship; you can't even call them friends. 

But why is he feeling this way?

"What do you think, kitty?" he asked, and the cat just meowed back, making him sigh. He stood up and started walking away while the cat follows him. "Do you want to come home with me?" The cat meowed, which made him smile. 

While walking alongside the cat, he started thinking about the story again. He imagined how Y/n must look so stunning when they had a date; he was imagining himself instead of the Ayato guy. Even though the Ayato guy occasionally interrupts his reverie.

Waiting inside a random restaurant, a man is waiting for a certain person. He is really nervous because this is the first time he's had a date with somebody. This person is also somebody that he has been looking up to for his whole life, so obviously he's nervous. 

The restaurant door opened and somebody walked in. The person is wearing beautiful clothes that perfectly fit their body, their hair flowing along the breeze. Diluc was taken aback when they saw the person—the person he's been waiting for has arrived. 

The beautiful person walked towards a table; all eyes were on them, jealous of whoever was meeting them. But everyone quietly gasped when they saw them sit in front of the handsome, red-haired man. The two people who look way better than anyone are sitting across from each other; they're definitely a match. 

"Hey kid, sorry I was late," the person said, and the man just smiled. The man offered a piece of bread, and the other smiled. "Thanks. How have you been?" 

"I'm fine. How are you?" 

"Good, doing better, especially since I'm with you."

The man blushed like a tomato, and the person chuckled, tucking a piece of hair out of the man's face. "Your bangs look good, but I hate that they cover your face," the person said, while the man looked at his bangs. "Should we cut it?" 

"No, it's fine. You like my hair anyway." Now its time for the other to blush, the man smirking at his successful flirt. The food has arrived, and they thanked their waiter. "Well, let's eat." 

They finished eating and started talking about their adventures. Everything is going well, and the two of them just kept talking, everyone around them being a blur. Its like time has stopped, and the only thing they can see is the two of them; they're the only ones that matter. 

Being beside each other is the only thing that matters. 

This is love.

"Master Diluc!" The man came back from reality when he heard the voice of Adelinde. The woman looked at him and sighed when she saw him responding. "Are you okay, Master? I've been calling your name, and your mind seems to be elsewhere." 

Diluc looked around and realized he was already in his manor, which shocked him. He also looked down and saw the cat beside him. He noticed that the cat actually had a collar, which shocked him. "Oh, I didn't notice you have a collar." 

"It appears that she belongs to someone," Adelinde remarked while petting the cat, which promptly collapsed into her palm. "Aww, isn't she sweet?" 

"I'll look for her owner tomorrow. Let's keep her in first." Adelinde nodded, and the cat meowed, jumping up at Diluc, which shocked him. "Well, she certainly likes that idea." 

The man went to bed, remembering what he had just daydreamed about. "I hope that can happen someday," he murmured, petting the cat and slowly falling asleep. 

Dreaming about the love that he would like.

This is a shorter chapter than usual since most of it is just daydreaming. Also, this story isn't doing well, haha.
