Will You Ever Love Me? (Alois and Claude fanfic)

Chapter 14

-Alois's POV-
My eyes fluttered awake and a soft, quiet yawn escaped from my lips. I tried to stretch but something heavy was holding me down. I looked down and saw that man from yesterday. He had his arms wrapped around me. It felt...nice. Am I crazy?

"Wake the fuck up! What are you doing?!" I jabbed my finger into his cheek. He shot awake instantly.

"O-oh!" He stuttered, "My sincerest apologies your highness, last night you asked-"

"Yes, I know," I interrupted him, "just get out." I said rather coldly.

He cleared his throat, adjusting his glasses, "I still need to help you get ready for the day, your highness." The tall man stated.

"Why." I blatantly asked.

The black haired man sighed, "Well, you are a royal, your highness. You normally require assistance."

"I do not require any sort of assistance thank you very much! I can very well get ready myself!" I protested. Who does he think I am? I am not useless. I folded my arms and glared at him.

"If you insist.." he rolled his eyes and left, quietly closing the door behind him.

"So what's first.." I pondered to myself.

After an hour of struggling, I finally made my way out. This manor seemed quite lavish and elegant, very beautiful although, whoever lived here didn't seem to interact with it much. Things seemed untouched and with dust. Does no one clean here? I finally scrambled my way to the dining area and spotted the same man and the lady from yesterday bickering along with three plum-haired men who appeared to be triplets trying to set the table. Conflicted on what to do, I just stood at the entrance rather coyly and awkward. After what seemed like forever they finally noticed me.

"Oh! Your highness, good morning!" The long, white haired lady asked. "How did you sleep?"

"Uh, g-great I suppose." I stuttered.

She led me to the table and the man pulled the chair for me to which she sneered at.

"That's wonderful, your highness!" The lady smiled.

"Now," she began, "I am Hannah, your maid and he is.." she looked at the man in disgust.

"Claude." The man finished her sentence.

"Precisely." She scrunched up her nose to which 'Claude' glared at 'Hannah'. The ambience felt rather tense. Very uncomfortable.

"So!" I both got their attention, both of their heads snapping at my direction. "Where is breakfast?"

Just when the two of them opened their mouths to speak, one of the triplets placed a fancy plate of two sunny side up eggs, two pieces of bacon, and three fluffy pancakes which orange juice to drink. If I wasn't hungry then I'm definitely hungry now! I said a quick 'thank you' before devouring the delicious, appetizing food.

The triplets all raises their brows in bewilderment while I was eating. I gulped my food down and set the silverware down.

"Are you three hungry? Do you want some?" I picked up a piece of the pancakes and motioned it to them. They looked even more puzzled than before. One of them opened their mouth to speak.

"We don't eat we're-"

They quickly got cut off by Hannah rushing to him and putting her hand over his mouth.

"Remember what we spoke about." She whispered to them, "Be. Quiet."

Her threatening tone got them to shut up. Hannah let go and walked back over to me.

-Hannah's POV-
We can't let Alois know we're demons yet. He has so much on his plate and with his state as of right now, who knows what he might do. We just need to let it out slow for him. Although, Spider-Man over there wants to rush and thinks we should do it all at once.

"Please do hurry, your highness." Claude spoke, "We have things to catch up on."

"What do you think you're doing?" I intervened, "He's not mentally available for that right now."

Claude rolled his eyes, "There's no point in that, we've talked over this-"

"Exactly, we've went over this already so you should know why-"

Before I could react, Claude slapped me causing be to stumble a bit. I held my cheek. "Do not interrupt me you sad excuse of a demon." Claude spat coldly.

"Stop it!" Alois's voice squeaked. I turned around and saw tears running down his face. "Do you two know how fed up I am having to hear you guys bicker all the bloody time?! It's exhausting!"

Alois stood up, "Just stop it." He excused himself.

He left us alone thinking to ourselves...
