He was steady in bed.. listening to his music box that contains a music called "come little children" a lullaby he is very fond with and can't get a hold of himself, "come little children.. ~ 𝄞 I'll take, Thee away.. ♪.. into a land of enchantment..~ ♪ come little children, the times come to play.. here in my garden of shadows.."
he sung and sway his body side to side.. lost in a blissful moment, a song so old but so beautiful he felt like a kid again. A pure angel that wasn't dirty.. he hummed the tune gently, just hearing it reminded it so much of his loving mother, his eyes began to swollen and overwhelmed with heated tears, a pinch of pain when his eyes began to water, tears trickling down his cold cheeks. The sun rising early around 7:00 AM. In such a winter morning, he soon shut his music box off gently.. before putting it away and check on his cat mocha, still fast asleep he sees, Alasdair just gave a soft warm smiling peering upon his face, before hearing a knock, "ah!.. who could that be?" Alasdair thought before gently getting up and walking to the door, his hand grasp the handle very gently before turning it, peering to see who it was..
a distorted face with heavy small eyes sockets piercing at him, dark rusted skin with a huge smile spread upon that ugly face and a thin very thin paranoia type of body like the rake and slim very very long hands slowly crept up as Alasdair gasped and held tightly on the door his pupils shrink in fear. Before blinking, it was just a woman.
"H—-ha!.. ahh..can-.. can I help you?" Alasdair said clearly startled, "Oh, hello!, you're Alasdair right? Alasdair.. Holmes?" The women asked checking her paper board, Alasdair gazed down at it, seeing things has been written before gently looking up at the women, he slowly opened his mouth and spoke, "Yes, that is me.. is there.. something wrong?" He said shyly. "No, not at all!, I am just checking in on passengers to mark who's here. ("What is this..? Some type of school?, weird.") Alasdair said in his head, as the women continued to speak.. "breakfast will be served soon so I suggest you get ready and head to the dining car, alright?" The lady smiled so friendly but Alasdair was just staring at the women before nodding, "okay thank you for informing me," Alasdair said before shutting the door gently, making a clicked sound, he turned around slowly and walked over to his bed, his gentle footsteps approaching the bed to check on the kitty, he slowly put it in his white pocket so his fur can blend in with his clothing.. he fixed his hair, brushing and and combing it gently, he soon went through his luggage carefully to get a clean rag he took with him, he approached his sink and started wetting the rag inside his sink, The cold water falling upon his slim cold hands. such a refresh feeling, of ice cold water washing down, makes him feel clean already. He soon washed his face and dried it with a white soft towel, he felt movements in his huge pocket, he sighed and pulled out mocha, "please mocha, just for now, can you be a good girl for me and not move so much?. Will have breakfast together I promise.. I'll make sure to find something you're able to eat," He talked to the kitten softly before pampering her, she purred before relaxing, Alasdair soon put her gently back in his white soft trench coat, he then put on a new shirt, white buttoned one but same pants and shoes, he gently put his trench coat back on, and wore his shoes once more then walked out, a radio played in the dining car, sounded like an old song Lesley gore, "why was she holding his hand when he's suppose to be mine?. ♪ it's my party and I cry if I want to~ ♪ cry! If I want to.. " Alasdair didn't seem to pay any kind of attention to the song that is playing. He sat down on a table alone, looking around the dining car, only to spot Antonio, Antonio soon acknowledged his appearance as he got up and walked over to him and sat across him, "Alasdair! My my I didn't think you'd actually come out that cave of yours!," Antonio jokingly said which made Alasdair roll his eyes "is that a bad thing?" Alasdair said with a small attitude, Antonio just grinned and shook his head "no no.. of course it's not!, it's not a bad thing, not at all."
Antonio reassured as he smiled at Alasdair, "so how did you sleep?" Antonio asked, Alasdair's eyes slowly peered at Antonio, and his appearance, elegant as usual..
"ahh, well. I slept pretty..fine, what about you?" Alasdair asked, Antonio ranted that he slept pretty fine but it wasn't enough for him, While Alasdair thought about last night, His dream, he forgotten how his mothers face looked during that time. Which made his head fill fuzzy "Alas..? Alasdair! Earth TO Alasdair!" Antonio shouted slightly which made Alasdair snap his head back up, looking directly at Antonio, "Ha..—- yeah-," "yeah what? Did you even pay attention to what I told you?" He laughed as Alasdair needed a moment, "sorry I.. zoned out," "that's fine, everyone does that sometimes" Antonio's smile grew wider while Alasdair smiled a bit too, "your smile is so cute..you know that?." Antonio said as Alasdair had a tint of embarrassment, "Oh uh, well no..?" "It's true!" Antonio said with confidence, he was such a nice guy.. he wondered why the hell this guy is talking to him? He started to be wary. "Actually, Antonio.. why bother speaking to me, what's so interesting and fascinating to speak to me for?." Antonio's smile soon drifted,, into a weak one, "well, you caught my eye like no other..you look rather beautiful but something tell me, you seemed like a lonely person.. so I thought.. why not try talking to you?, you seem pretty cool and yeah,, quiet. Literally, but other than that, you seem like the type of person who would need some by your side, you know?" Antonio spoken softly, as he gently caressed Alasdair's slim delicate hands. "You fine me, important some way?" "What—-.. no not really but, maybe if our friendship grows more," "Ah.. I see" Alasdair replied quietly, Before Antonio could say something else, a waitress approached their table with a menu to hand out, "let me know when you two fine men are ready to order," The women grinned before walking away, Antonio couldn't help but check her out, "DAMN!~" Alasdair gaze back to Antonio's purple eyes, as they made such an awkward silent contact, "Pardon?" Alasdair said with a hushed voice which made Antonio giggle embarrassingly, "ah—-... haha!.. she fine as hell okay? If I ever see a women like her come up to me and ask if she can do what she wanted with me, I'd say yes. No hesitation," he said jokingly but Alasdair looked at him dead ass. "Is this for serious?" "......." "......." "Well-" "Nope," "oh.. okay," Alasdair murmured before giggling softly, it made Antonio smiled softly once more. He soon spoke again asking Alasdair a question, "So! What you wanna get breakfast? I'm getting me an omelette!—" "-Waffles." "......" "......" "just-.. waffl—-" "Mhm, Just waffles, but of course with fruits and syrup on it, Maybe sugar powder.." Alasdair kept cutting Antonio off just to create some awkward silence on purpose, Antonio just smiled awkwardly which made Alasdair burst into laughter, "The way you look, my god your too nice.." Antonio let out a little giggle, just a few before smiling once more, blinking, Alasdair was definitely the strangest person he ever met but he isn't complaining, the women soon came back again taking in their menus after they picked what they desired to have for breakfast, Antonio glanced at Alasdair as he grinned, "Hey.. psst,," he whispered to Alasdair, he stared at him "You know we are right next to each other?.. why the hell are you whisper—-" "it's some private things. I wanna tell you, is that okay?" "... .. sure," Alasdair seemed unease as Antonio nodded, "Do you lately check the news?" "The news..? What about it?" "There's been reports. A murderer on the lookout, a few victims are currently in the hospital but god.. they act so crazy, a clip went viral on twitter, there was a women as victim in a hospital bed, all terribly wounded, and she was just.. in panic, she lost her control sanity even, kinda like an insane asylum," "insane asylum!?.. holy rose pedals." Alasdair said clearly concerned "I know. The worst part of it all is the fact when the murderer is caught they act just like the victim. And some just say they didn't do it, now if I was in that situation I would've been in distress.. you know?" "Who would wanna be in a situation like that?.. sounds like hell." "Exactly, nobody knows where the hell these victims are popping up from, it's a good thing to always read the news, you'll never know what's going on in this world, right?" "Mhm,, well. If I .. cared.." Antonio's ears slightly rosed up, "what you say?" "Oh nothing I was simply agreeing." Alasdair said quietly, he was reminded of his goal as he gone silent. Antonio stared at him deeply. Feeling a very sympathetic and passionate type of feeling, "yeah, definitely.. you'll never know what can turn against you or, come at you," Antonio says quietly before going silent as well, the waitress arrived with the breakfast soon after, "Here you two gentlemen's go," she grinned and handed them their plates. "Thank you!" Antonio says happily, always the bundle of sunshine that's for sure. Alasdair adored that about him, he scoffed. "Thank you so much miss," Alasdair thanked the waitress as she smiled before leaving them two alone once more. "My god doesn't this look very delicious?" Antonio says very happily before gently digging in, he stopped midway just to glance at The man across him, Alasdair. ("Why wasn't he digging in?..") Antonio thought before coming up with an idea, he gently plunged his fork into his own omelette before gently tearing a peace off, "Alasdair~" Antonio grasped Alasdair's attention as he shoved the fork into Alasdair's mouth without a warning, the fork torn on his lip making it bleed, Alasdair ignored it and chewed on the food carefully, Antonio gently pulled out his fork from Alasdair's mouth with a smug expression. "Do you like it?" "It.. tastes amazing!" Alasdair flashed a shy smile, "holy smokes your fucking lips bleeding!.. ah—.. sorry maybe I was a bit reckless there," Antonio stated before grabbing a napkin that was neatly folded in a small basket that includes sauce and salt on the table, with those delicate hands of his, he gently reached over to Alasdair's lips and damp the napkin upon it, the blood bleaching in with the white clean napkin. He put a little pressure on it and stopped the bleeding afterwards, "there we go.. I should've been more careful, I hope it doesn't hurt too much.." Antonio responded then Alasdair replied "it doesn't, do not worry okay?" Alasdair said with a soft smile but soon faded with a gentle frown, "but.. you're fork, my saliva might be coated with it, wanna switch it out? You can have my fork and I'll have your—-" "-I don't mind!, honestly I'm fine with it, we got napkins after all," Antonio grinned, there was that feeling again, the feeling of being in warmth, why did he felt so loved?.. Alasdair was lost in his own thoughts, drowning in them.
Not even realizing that Antonio never wiped off his fork, he simply just ate his breakfast. And Alasdair's food was getting cold, "aren't you gonna eat?" Says Antonio, "mhm yes. I will," Alasdair responded before eating his waffles, and looking out the window, it was a beautiful sight to see, that's for sure, "I have an idea!" Antonio smiled, "what's that?." Alasdair questioned with clear curiosity, "After breakfast meet me in my cabin okay? It's a few halls down," "the 7th?" "Yes!" Antonio smiled like a little kid which made Alasdair shared a smile. Once again, he felt so giddy before nodding a bit stiffly. As they finished eating and stacking the two plates together, waiting for the lady to arrive, when she did she took the two plates, glancing at them both before winking, she then walked away with the cart. Without hesitation Antonio grabbed Alasdair's wrist and went to his room immediately, an exciting feeling rushed deeply in his veins and body. By the time they made it in he shoved Alasdair down on the bed and shut the door lightly, he then looked at him with such an innocent smile, "so many things I wanna show you," he says before opening a train window, "tell me Alasdair are you afraid of death?" That question made Alasdair thought for a moment, he wasn't sure. "Maybe, I don't know." "Would you wanna risk your life for this fun and dangerous event?" "Depends..maybe" Alasdair muttered, "well that's fine! You look like you never felt alive in years! Hold on my hand okay?" He smirked, the wind was hella strong, but he trusted Antonio. They soon stepped out, but had a rope perfectly attached to the train, and gently lifted Alasdair up along with him,("why the hell is he so strong!?") Alasdair was surprised and his body felt like it was flying everywhere, in surprising ways.. like he is on a rollercoaster, they sat up during this wind... Antonio laughed as his hair was waving up like a flag..along with Alasdair but his hair was short, he was overwhelmed.. "this..this is—.." Antonio stared at Alasdair waiting for what he was gonna say.. "THIS IS AMAZING!!!" Antonio laughed with joy while holding onto Alasdair's waist with all his might not that he flew off the train, they enjoyed the scenery. The feeling of ice cold fresh air and snow, in this morning weather. After some time they had to get back in the window, so he soon helped Alasdair first before he carefully and securely got back in the train. "That..felt so refreshing and..exciting" Alasdair says with a smile, while Antonio chuckled "mhm!, I have more things up my sleeve that you can't know.. just yet!" Maybe one or two more? "What's that?" "......."

"Oh wow.." "yup, I own the full collection of the killing stalking manga! And hanako toilet bound, he smiled gleefully" "the first manga is.. really traumatizing" "I know, but very an interesting tale" Antonio said, "very very nice.." Alasdair complimented Antonio's collections, he was flattered and soon after he heard an old song, one of his favorites.. Maniac by micheal sembello. "No way.. Alasdair we must dance to this song." "What song?.." "MANIAC!" He shouted happily before lifting Alasdair up on his feet, and started dancing with him, they dance like a prince and a princess. Alasdair couldn't help but laugh at Antonio's atmosphere
"Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night! Lookin' for the fight of her life In the real-time world no one sees her at all They all say she's crazy Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart~ ♪ Changing movement into light She has danced into the danger zone When the dancer becomes the dance ♪ It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire On a wire between will and what will be!" Alasdair couldn't help but kept laughing at how stupid Antonio was being, he's jamming out literally "She's a maniac, ♪ maniac on the floor~! ♪
And she's dancing like she's never danced before! ♪" "my god aren't you just ridiculous when you get this crazy?." Alasdair laughed, Antonio just smiled everything was going very neat. After some time, Antonio charged at Alasdair, shoving him on the bed, pinning him down with his weight and began to tickle him, "PFFT—-. MMPH,," *Alasdair shut his mouth, trying not to laugh, Antonio noticed that, and read his action just by how obvious it was. He was insecure, he gently moved his hands, pinning it over his head and tickled him, he just laughed, he adore how cute he sounded. Alasdair just.. looked like, an Angel. A pure angel, like an innocent sheep, he never felt this good being friends with someone like him, he was a strange person but with such a calming fragile soul, "you're so precious to me already Alasdair. You know what?" "What?" "Tell me, where will you be going, what purpose. Do you have, riding this train?"
"My purpose of riding this train?"
"Yes, we are moving to London. Right? So why not tell me about what purpose you have to moving there. ?"
"London?... I'm suppose to be taken to Paris.. not.. London,"
Antonio stared before smiling slightly.
"What...?"
