Pandora Hearts Xerxes Break x Reader: From Darkness to Light [1]

Chapter 11

To think I might not see those eyes

It makes it so hard not to cry

And as we say our long goodbyes

I nearly do

(Run - Snow Patrol)

You froze, even though you were wrapped into three blankets and wore your nightgown. It was late in the night and the only sound you heard, was the tick-tock of a clock.

After the men were gone this evening, you had excused yourself and disappeared into your room; you couldn't stand the shocked and disappointed glazes of your friends. Yeah, you also didn't eat dinner or packed your bag.

You didn't know what to do, but one thing was clear: It was over now. With this damn photo, you've lost everything: your friends, the happy life and your hope.

Break. What would you do without him? If he hadn't been, you would be dead. He was the light in your lonely darkness. If this light would be gone, the darkness would come over you again...

Only a couple of hours were left now...

You looked at your grand bed: Break's coat laid on it. When you had come back from the paper chase, you didn't give it back to him.

You had an idea, maybe this was crazy and inane, but you couldn't help it. You stood up, took the coat and a pillow from the bed and went out of your room, along the floor. When you reached Break's door, you stopped and knocked. Nothing happened.

'Maybe he sleeps already', you thought and turned around to go back. In this moment, the door was opened. Break looked surprised at you. His hair was tousled and he wore just his pyjama.

"Look, if this isn't our dear (y/n)-chan. Isn't it a bit late for a walk?"

"Ahm, I-I wanted to return this to you..." You gave him his coat.

"There's more to it than that, am I right?"

"I just can't sleep..."

He smirked. "So you're here to make some sweet last memories? Like sleeping wi-"

"No! Are you sick?!... I-I mean,... I..."

"So do you want to come in or not?"

"Y-yes"

He made some steps away from the door, to let you in. His room was as big as yours, but his bed was smaller. You would have to lie very close to him, if you wanted to fit in too.
Everything else here, was similar to what you had in your room.

Break bunged his coat on a chair, then he took to his bed. You watched him, but you didn't move.

"Awwwwww why so shy? Don't you want to accompany me?"

You shrugged your shoulders and lay down next to him. You were glad, that it was dark, so he couldn't see your deep red face. Break giggled and wrapped one arm around you.

"So tell me... aren't you sad, my dear? I'm wondering; you're not even crying."

"Maybe I'm just stronger than you think!"

"Impossible!", he laughed.

"Oho!" You closed your eyes. "There is something positive about it; You won't be able to annoy me anymore..."

"Does this make you really happy?"

That silenced you. "I... Sure!..."

He raised a brow. Of course, he didn't believe you; you weren't any authentic...
