Let It Out

Chapter 4

A new day. Alexander is in his office as usual, but.. he seems a little.. no, very wierd. He wasnt focused on anything, he was sweating, pale.. and.. just not like him. Authelle knew he was sick, she was just confused on how to help.

It was around 12pm. Authelle felt bad.. she finally decided to help.

"Sir, are you okay?" Authelle said while she was searching her bag for medicine.

"Im fine." Authelle expected that answer, he obviously wouldnt admit he was sick.

"Your not." Authelle grabs a glass of warm water and a few pills.

"Take these, if you dont youll just get worse." Authelle is really serious about taking care of people.

"I said im fi- achoo!" And he says hes fine. He takes the medicine, 'fuck, why does she always- agh.'

Authelle walks closer and puts her hand on his forhead to check his temprature. "Goodness, your burning! Wait here." Authelle rushed out to get a warm towel.

Alexander whatches her leave. 'Is she- nevermind.' Is alexander falling inlove with authelle? No one knows just quite yet.

Authelle comes back with the warm towel, "here, use this" she says as she places it on is forhead.

"I dont need anything" is it that hard to admit something so simple..

"Its not  a question, its a command." This side of authelle, the dominant part of her.. is something alexander never saw.

"Y-you dont get to-" he was in pure shock regarding on what she just said.

"I said use it."

"Now, have some rest. Or youll get sick. The more sick you are the less work you get done. Understand?" Authelle then leaves his office.

Alexander again, watches her leave as he starts to think about her even more. 'What if i just consid- no.. shes my-.. hmph.' Hes head rushes with all kinds of thoughts, but slowly he fell asleep.

Hours later, its 6pm. Everybody left, except authelle and alexander, ofcourse.

Authelle walks in alexanders office to check on him, as she walks in, she sees alexander sleeping with his head laid on his desk.

"Hm? Aww. Look at him." Authelle said quietly as she chuckled.

She continued her work. She had to search for a few documents in Alexanders office. A few moments pass, she heard.. muttering.. from Alexander..? She didint pay mind, but then.. his words caught her attention.

"No, no.. p-please.. dont go! I beg you.. dont leave me.." Alexander muttered as his hands shake ever so slightly.

Authelle decided to wake him up, Its been long enough, right? She walked to Alexander than slowly tapped Alexander in his arm. "Let's wake up, shall we?" She said softly. As if she was babysitting a child.

Alexanders hand started to shake more, than he woke up out of shock. He grabbed her wrist with a firm grip as he mumbled "don't go.." then, he fully woke up. Quite embarrased, actually.

"Oh.. uhm.., haha. Hello, Elle." He said.

"Good evening, sir. How was your sleep? What intresting dream did you have that it could bring you to this state?" Authelle chuckled. She didint want to bring the situation into an emotional one, she was afraid he wouldnt want to.

"Nothing." He said, simply.

"Very well. Now, sir. I have a slight amount of work i need to work on, since its already quite late." Authelle bowed, then walked out his office closing his door shut.

Alexander was left there, alone with his thoughts. Then.. he started to recall his dream. A few moments passed, he found himself tearing up, then sobbing.

Authelle then walked in, she didint knock, for she thought he had go home. Well, she walked into a suprise, i must say.

"Oh? Sir.. i apologize for walking in." She said as she turned around. Authelle was concerned, ofcourse,.. but she knew that Alexander didint like people seeing him beeing emotional.

Alexander quickly wiped his tears, then sighed. "It's fine."

As Authelle started to walk away, Alexander spoke. "Please, stay."

Authelle turned around. "Oh?, very well." Then she walked towards him.

"Elle.. im know this isint proffesional, but.. can i talk to you? I.. need it." He said quietly. He was embarrased that he could show such emotion.

Authelle nodded as she sat down on the chair infront of Alexander.

What could Alexander want to say? Was it about his dream? Oh, quite exciting to find out, is it not?
