"Kill Me."

[A Diluc x Jean fanfic]

Warning: Death, angst, mentions of torture

Note: This was actually supposed to be a Diluc x reader but JaeLuc angst is just... Yea

"You have to kill me."

Those are the most ridiculous words that have ever escaped Jean's lips the entire time Diluc has been together with her. Yet...

"Of course, love."

He raises his claymore, ready to slash it down her body. Though his expression and stance says that they're ready, his eyes do not. Jean slowly looks up to his hands and notice how they're barely shaking. A sad smile made its way to her lips.

"It's okay."

Diluc didn't want to do this. Not at all. Not after he finally finds the only person that can make him feel feelings he had long forgotten, the only one that can finally make him smile so happily and genuinely, the only one who can make him relax despite all the burden he's carrying on his shoulders. He was not ready to lose the person he loves the most.

"Jean, I..."

The blonde looks straight into his eyes.

"Do it."

"I..."

Muffled voices are heard from afar, yelling, "Find the traitor!"

Diluc is not ready to lose the love of his life, but he's also not willing to give her up to the knights. With one final loving look from Jean, he brings the flaming claymore with all his might, hoping that he can end her life in one slash. The once highly respected Acting Grand Master coughs out blood before her body collapses onto the ground.

The nobleman puts away his claymore, eyes desperately scanning any signs of life from Jean but much to his disappointment, there were none. Eventually, the knights find him and Jean's corpse.

"Master Diluc. I assume you have taken care of her?" One of the three knights question.

"Of course. Now, take her away and release the others." He ordered, staring at the leader of the group with a sharp glare.

"As per your request, Master Diluc."

To think that Jean was labelled as a traitor just because she was falsely accused of being in shady businesses with the Fatui angers Diluc and as a result, Barbara, Lisa, Amber and Kaeya were locked up and interrogated the hard way. He had visited them. They all were in bad conditions after receiving countless of beatings.

He was determined to save Jean, but his efforts were in vain and the only way to end her suffering is to take her life. To watch the life in her eyes disappear as quickly as he brought down his claymore onto her body, it kills him.

To say he was devastated was an understatement. He didn't even say or receive one final 'I love you' before she left him for good.

my dearest

just imagine how they dance to the "once upon a december"
