World of opportunities, choices, and mistakes

Charlotte

It was around six a.m. when the sun has just started to rise and Alice started to rise with the sun too, though she wasn't the only one awake as Elise was sat on the edge of his bed staring at his hands as if he was trying to focus on something, though that wasn't what Alice was focusing on as she realized that Elise was wearing the hoodie that she bought him just yesterday, so instead of saying anything she just snuck up behind him and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. "Sup Alice." Said Elise as he knew who it was. "Hiya handsome, I see someone likes the hoodie I got him." Alice said in her flirty tone. "And so what if I do?" Elise asked trying to look like he didn't really care but Alice saw right through it. "Well it's good to see if you like it though that could mean you also like something else like maybe the person who gave it to you." Alice said once again in her flirty tone. "You would like that now wouldn't you?" Elise asked in a semi flirty tone of his own. "Maybe I would, but still what you up to?" Alice asked, to change the topic. "Well I decided to get done training in since I had some time to kill." Elise said as he looked at Alice. "How long have you been up, you look shattered?" Alice asked as she didn't want to see her friend like this. "Uhhhh, since the morning of the day that you slept in my bed with me." Elise said, not realizing that this has actually annoyed Alice, so she dragged him backwards onto his bed and decided to lie down on top of him. "Alice what are you doing?" Elise asked. "Just shut up and sleep cos I ain't letting you up until you go sleep." Alice stated. "Alice are you being serious?" Elise asked, with only getting a nod in response, so he just let this happen and hoped he didn't fall asleep before her, but unfortunately he did, followed closely by Alice.

A few hours had gone by and it was now half eight and Miss Yuuki was the next to rise, and the first thing she noticed as she sat up was the fact that Alice and Elise were both asleep, but she didn't think anything of it at first as she noticed they did have clothes on, though she was surprised about Elise's choice of color, but once again she didn't think anything of it and instead she decided to take a shower before the others woke up. After coming back out of the bathroom she noticed a note that was left on Alice's bed, so she went other to read it, and it said 'Whoever reads this don't wake me or Elise up he hasn't slept the past two nights so what you have probably already seen was my way of making him sleep, thanks a bunch Alice.' "So that's why they are still asleep." Miss Yuuki thought to herself as she put the note down and just went to make some breakfast.

A few minutes had passed and Asuka had woken up and had just read the note. "Well this isn't gonna be easy to explain." Was all she said as she put the note down and went to take a shower. "No it isn't though I'm not surprised he's not sleeping well." Thought Miss Yuuki as she finished off her breakfast and got up to tidy away what she used. Meanwhile in the bathroom Asuka was reluctantly looking at the scar she had been 'gifted' by her parents and thought back to what happened the night before and how she slipped up and became the weak and frail girl that she once was, but lucky for her it was only Elise who saw her like that as he already knew her to be like that. "I'm so pathetic." Was all she mustered to say as she slid down the wall next to the sink and sat there for a few minutes to collect herself before getting in the shower.

Another hour had past and not much was said between Asuka and Miss Yuuki, though they realized that they would have to leave their team mates there as they have to go to class to explain what had happenstance to try to avoid being screamed at by the teacher, so they went and did just that and luckily enough Professor Valintean wasn't in for today's lesson, so instead the two were met by a female professor by the name of Professor S. Sato, who said it was fine as everyone else would be carrying on with what they was already doing so Miss Yuuki and Asuka only had to sit in the back and not do much and Elise and Alice would be excused.

However, back at the room, Elise was tossing and turning in his sleep which woke Alice up, worrying her especially since he kept repeating one word, Char, which Alice could only assume was what Elise called his sister Charlotte, so she started to try and wake him up, and eventually she managed to wake him up. "Elise, I'm sorry, if I knew this is what would happen I wouldn't have made you fall asleep." Alice said as she started to tear up. "Don't cry Alice it's not your fault it's mine for letting Rose's dad get to me." Elise said as he was still waking up properly. "Well if it wasn't my fault then what was it that caused it, as you managed to talk about it yesterday?" Alice asked wiping the tears away. Before speaking Elise took a deep breath and curled up into a ball cuddling holding closely the hoodie he was wearing. "Every time my eyes have shut since he mentioned that he wasn't the one that killed her it has caused me to relive that moment in every detail that I can remember even when I don't want to remember that, instead I want to remember how she was before she was taken away and yet I still remember that day in the most detail." Elise pretty much mumbled, but luckily for Alice she could hear what was said, and moved closer to him and forced him out of the ball so that she could give him a massive hug, fighting the tears that were building up just so he wasn't also breaking down. "Here's the thing I want to ask you Elise, was it actually her, did you see the Char you knew in the person you killed or was it just the body, because the body doesn't make the person it's the heart mind and soul of the person, so was it Char or was it just a body?" Alice asked after mustering up the strength to do so. "No, it wasn't her, it was just the body." Elise whispered, but once again Alice managed to hear it. "Then you didn't kill her, you just destroyed a husk." Alice said hoping this would cheer him up, which it slightly did. "Thanks Alice." Was all he said before he passed out from exhaustion. "I hope you sleep well Elise, I'll be right here the whole time just in case." Alice said as she snuggled up next to Elise to watch over him while he slept.
