"Bennett?!", you couldn't believe what you saw. Bennett,somehow tangled up in what seems to be tent material, in a tree, in the middle of nowhere. ,,Can you help me down y/n?", he looked sheepish and would've probably scratched the back of his head if it wasn't for the strings holding him in place.
You went around the tree to look for the best way to cut through the tent cloth holding him up. He noticed your quizzical look and replied before you could ask your question: "I tried to build a tent and suddenly there was this huge storm! The wind caught me and blew me away with my tent. I don't really know how long I've been up here. If it weren't for my bad luck..." , he should've been in pain.
The strings and tent held him up in the most awkward position you've ever seen and yet, he wasn't even complaining. Does he not feel any pain? You wondered and finally climbed up to cut the tight strings with your pocket knife.
"You were gone for two days, Bennett", some string took a bit more concentration but once you cut it you continued, "Cyrus send me to look for you. We were all quite worried, you know?" Finally, the last string keeping him up was cut.
With a loud thud, both of you fell down onto the soft grass underneath.
Bennett had landed directly on you and quickly stood up, a bit emberassed by the sudden closeness. With a beet red face he turned away from your view so that you couldn't see his face.
You two gathered the materials and made your way back to Mondstadt. That is when you heard Bennetts stomach rumbling.
Sighing, you looked up at the sky. The sun had already begun to descend and almost touched the horizon in a rose and gold tinted greeting. "Let's just build a small campfire and rest", you suggested and the both of you quickly set a few logs aflame in a neat little fire place.
Suddenly, you got an idea while looking at the apples from the tree Bennett had been stuck on. After a bit of searching you finally found some sweet flowers and used their middle part to make caramel in a small pot. After it became the right color, you dipped the apples in it and gave one to Bennett, keeping one for yourself.
"To a luckier tomorrow!", you two toasted cheerfully with the caramel apples before munching down on them.
It didn't take long until night finally arrived and you two huddled under the blanket you had brought with you.
The whole day you had been wandering around, searching for Bennett and now that you had found him you could finally rest without much worry.
Bennett himself stayed up a bit longer. Admiring how the light of the fire danced on your skin. He smilled and whispered to the stars above:"Maybe I'm not that unlucky"
