'What did this man just say? Was he delusional?' You thought tilting your head slightly
" that's impossible" you almost crack out as Kaeya also tilts his head at you, crossing his arms
" he likes Jean" you whisper so you didn't sound like you were ratting him out. Kaeya was his brother after all so shouldn't he know? Either way Kaeya insisted Dilucs crush on you
" seriously...Jean?" Kaeya clicks his tongue, almost laughing as you nod hesitantly
" she's with Lisa!" Kaeya almost shouted like it was obvious, the message not getting to you
" no...she...well I mean- Diluc could never like me because he rejected me years ago" you laugh thinking Kaeya was just joking
"...fine think what you want, I'm trying to be honest here" Kaeya patted your shoulder before walking away after taking a big sigh
You bite your lip nervously, Diluc liking you? That idea was absurd. But either way that conversation was short lived and you couldn't help but want to hear more

" thank you"
" huh for what [y/n]?" Ayaka stopped to look at your facial expressions
" oh nothing" you play it off walking out the training grounds with her
" ...okay" Ayaka looked around a bit worried as Mona and Zhongli slowly followed
Walking out you notice a figure behind a wall in the distance and as you got closer, the more clearer the figure became
" Diluc! Where were you" Zhongli pointed out as he saw Diluc hiding behind a wall
" I um..needed air" Diluc excused making a quick glance at you
You caught his eye and looked away embarrassingly after your new discovery on him. 'No way he liked you, he looks so uninterested.' Those words replayed in your mind as reassurance
