Clock 35 "I'll Be Your Constant "

[ Sorry for late update i got lazy :P ]

Laurette, you have always been the deepest sleeper I have ever known. Alfred chuckled. He walked to the far side of the room where a drawer was and began changing into dry clothes. I might as well change into a new clothes so that i wont look ugly when he woke up. Once Alfred was done, he took a seat next to bed and looked at the sleeping blonde. There was a sad expression on the boy's face, and his breathing was a bit shallow.

Alfred looked at Laurette's paling face and thought for a minute. I've never seen Laurette sad, at least not where it was this visible. And Alfred hated that he hasn't.

Laurette gave Alfred his humanity, his heart. But the man has never once gotten to return the favor that was he thought. Laurette would never show the moments when he was sad. I think he's afraid to let anyone get invold to  him…all because of the box. I bet he never want anyone touched to him becoz he is afraid to make them end up like Dorothy. He never lets anyone in, he never admits to needing someone. I wonder how long he can go living such an empty life. How lonely is he going to be before he snaps?

Alfred couldn't stand the thoughts any longer. Even if the blonde would never say so, he's a lost soul looking for a safe place. He needed something constant in his life, something he knows will always be save him. The elder bent over and whispered into the teenager's ear, "I'll be the only thing in your life that is there forever, I'll be your constant, and I'll be your light."

"My beloved Little Young Master."

.............................

--This is an old memory---

That was when ive discover his real feelings.

"Young Master!" A man's voice called causing Laurette's eyes to snap open with a deep gasp of breath.

 "Young Master Laurette, Are you alright? You stopped breathing…" Alfred's voice says in a serious tone as Lau saw two faces staring down at him, one was obviously Alfred who was a worried looking. The other one was Eliot. Laurette stared at Alfred for a moment before remembering what happen to him ealier before found himself lying on the floor and for some reason panic went through his body.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME!" Laurette screamed raising his hand and pushing Alfred back before jumping out of the bed to run. But the minute his feet touched the ground a racing daze hit him causing him to wobble and collapse onto the ground. The two looked at him shocked before Eliot went into action.

"Lauru!"  He rushed to Laurette as he holds both his shoulders tight said he. "Its ok its just a nightmare dont worry!" Eliot said at Laurette before pulling him to his feet. "Besides, you have not fully recovered from the fever back, so you shouldn't be jumping around like that." he adds lying him slowly onto the bed watching him look up at him and Alfred.

After that He simply sighs before looking at Laurette who was smiling sadly. "Are you alright? I didn't mean to startle you, Lauru." Eliot says softly not looking at Laurette straight in the eyes afraid that he'd get upset again. Laurette nodded slowly as if he was still dazed before looking around the room with a cautious look upon his face. Once he was satisfied with what he was searching around the room for he looked at Eliot with a small frown.

Alfred sighs and finally spokes. "In either way, Eliot-sama has to go now right?"

"Eh!? B-but Lauru is not feeling well again so i--"

"No please go or else your father might scold you." Said Alfred smiling. "Besides its my job to take care of Young Master's body. So please..." Alfred begged the last part. Eliot understands he nods his head and opens the door. "Goodbye i'll visit again tomorrow Lauru..." He closes the door.

Finally Alfred and Laurette is all alone on the room.

"Young Master, so how are you feeling right now?" the man smiled softly at Laurette who is currently upset on himself. He really cant cleary remember what happen why did he got horror ealier pushing Alfred off.
