tick... tock... tick... tock

the clock on your room ticked away as the minutes passed.

your sleep was peaceful, mostly anyway. you shifted in your slumber, only to feel a lack of presence. you felt along the sheets for a moment. they were empty; cold.

you quickly rose awake. knowing your lover, kurapika, he could be doing just about anything. whether it was safe or not.

you looked over to your left to see kurapika gazing over the balcony.

you sighed, headed for the balcony.

"kurapika," you began.

he flinched, "good lord you scared me."

"i'm sorry, love. anyhow, what are you doing up so late? it's 1:30 in the morning, kurapika."

"i... i don't know. just can't sleep i guess."

"c'mon. there's another reason why you're up so late. what're you thinking about?"

"i miss them. i regret how i was back then. it's my fault their dead. i'm the one that broke the rule. i'm the one that lead the phantom troupe right to them." his voice began to break.

"oh... kurapika," you immediately brought the boy inside and sat him in your bed. you knelt down on the floor, below his eye level.

"my dear, look at me," you started, "it's not you're fault. i know theres no amount of times i can say that that'll make you magically stop believing it, but it's true. you were just a young boy. you had a big heart, and your care for pairo far exceeded the rule you were given. you weren't and aren't the cause of the evil and cruelty flowing in the phantom troupes blood."

kurapika couldn't respond, he could only choke out incoherent sobs.

"let's get you to bed, honey. judging by those eyebags you really need it."

you helped kurapika shift over on the bed and pulled the covers over him. you joined him shortly after

"come here, my love." you motioned him closer to you.

he lay his head down on your shoulder while you wrapped your arm around him.

"goodnight, sweetheart," you kissed his forehead, "i'll always be here for you, no matter what."
