"have you finally grown tired of the party?" you tease, once diluc has successfully led you towards the balcony by a gentle hold on your wrist, and all but pins you against the railing.
"i can only be surrounded by sycophants for so long," he huffs, but then his eyes refocus on you, and he gives you an obvious once, then twice-over, as though he hadn't arrived here with you from the start.
perhaps you don't notice his obvious need given that you reply to continue the banter.
"do you not think i flatter you as well?"
diverting the conversation, he dips into the space where your neck meets your shoulder, and kisses, then nibbles softly.
"i think you look breathtaking," he says.
you warm at his touch, his arms caressing your upper arms as he stares into your eyes in the moonlight, then focuses on the rouge on your lips.
there's another kiss that takes your breath away, and appropriately winded, you remind him that you are in public.
"may i take you home then?"
you blink at the blunt assertion.
"the party has barely begun. they'll miss you."
"but I miss you," he emphasizes, another kiss at the curve of your jaw, a hand snaking around your waist and pressing you closer to him.
you meet halfway, stealing away into a less traveled portion of the neighboring vineyard - admittedly less impressive than diluc's but adequate for your purposes - and sip of each other, before returning to smile and sympathize with the region's other sellers, hoping that perhaps they don't notice the hickeys and scratches you both share.
