Eli was in a match with Aesop and a two others he was decoding a cipher he had already seen everyone in the match he looked down as he clicked the keys of the cipher. There was only one cipher left when this one was one when it the siren of it being done went off he ran to find a new cipher. when he could he went and used Brooklyn rose to spectate one his team mate they where almost done with a cipher. he mumbled a okay and headed to a gate waiting for his teammate to get done. Thats when the red light filled his eyes he ran.

~~~~~~~~
Aesop saw Eli being chased by the hunter he felt himself begin to shake he ducked and hid when they ran away he summoned a coffin. Not to Eli not when he just got back into the flow of matches. he fumbled to paint Eli's appearance in the coffin when he heard a scream in the distance he stared to cry and panic next to the coffin. After a few minutes of silent crying he felt a hand wipe a tear off his face he looked up to see Eli.

Eli sat up from the coffin he saw Aesop crying he wiped a tear off of his face  then said,"Hey smile it's okay"

Aesop said,"o-okay let's get out here"He lead Eli to the exit gate and then left with him.

Eli was in his room minding his own stuff hen he heard a knock at the door he opened to see Aesop. His hair was mess and he had bags under his eyes he look like he hasn't sleep in weeks,"You doing okay you don't all that great buddy?"

Aesop looked at him he smiled and before he could say anything he was cut off he felt himself start to fall. He hadn't been felling that well but he been hiding it he was still doing matches and just put on make up to make himself to look more well fine. He was to tried to even stand up at this point. 

Eli caught him he said,"Oh Aesop you should take better care of yourself it's not good to push your self like this come on" He picked up Aesop and took him to his room he felt his forehead it was hot. Once Aesop was in his bed Eli gave him a gentle kiss on the forehead,"I'll be right back." than ran he to get Emily .He wanted to make sure Aesop was okay and just had a fever and wasn't that sick. he sighed when he got at the clinic door he opend the door.

~~~~~

Eli was waiting for Emily to be done with Aesop he just watched her test on him in the room.He sighed in relief when Emily told him it was just a fever and he should be over it in a day or two. he waited for Emily to go. Then he took off his blind fold he went up to Aesop who seemed a little bit shocked at Eli he said,"Don't over work your self again like that your gonna make everyone worried"He looked him in the eyes.

Aesop looked into the boy eyes he just gave a slight nod. Eli's  eyes where blue and filled with life and where bright he was beautiful like this then Eli just put back on his blind fold to how normally looked around everyone. Aesop wished he could see Eli like this more Eli was so carrying and different in a good way. he never would just watch him cry he would always hold his hands though hard time. He wished in his heart he could be more than just a problem to Eli deep down he knew that all he was. just someone who held everyone down he couldn't even talk normal how was he suppose to do anything right? But Eli did everything with perfection His lips soft his eyes beautiful. But all he was a nobody just the lonely embalmer with his grey hair and dull eyes nothing special about him. When someone thinks embalmer they think death and that's all he'll ever be.

Eli noticed Aesop looking down he put a hand on his cheek,"Hey it's alright, I don't know whats going on in that head yours but what every your thinking don't put your self down okay? your perfect the way you are" he gave Aesop a rare smile making sure he was okay felt like his responsibility.

Aesop said,"Yeah but I know I'm just a problem to everyone, I cant do anything right all i'll ever be is a nobody that no will remember when I am gone. I'll be 6 feet into ground before you know it "

Before Eli could even think of something to say. he made there lips connect after what felt like the best time he ever had he pulled away and said,"Don;t doubt yourself your loved more than you could ever believe and that makes you beautiful I'll be back later."He gave a soft touch on Aesop cheek then let go before walking out the door,"Bye Aesop just remember I'm always by your side"He smiled at him before closing the door.

Aesop looked down confusion, Did Eli really like him did he really have a chance or was this just to make him feel better what ever it was it made his heart flutter and blush rush on his cheeks.
