A fairly large room filled to the brim with natural fluorescent light a soothing ambience with the sound of even breathing there laid Lewis peacefully sleeping
SLAM
With a hitched breath Lewis jolted upright from the loud bang drowsily trying to keep his eyes open fluttering his eyelashes closed shut and then forcefully opening them eyes stinging and mind in a blur
A soft grunt escaped his lips
his eyes watery with each blink his head tilting slightly to the right of his side and slightly tilted down
"You're still sleeping at this time?" A jarring voice spoke in a irritated mocking tone
"hm..?" Lewis sat there confused blinking at the figure in front of him as he tried to make out the person in front of him he rubbed his eyes which seemed to make his vision worse as it made his eyes more blurry then before he then just sticked with staring at the figure blinking as hard as he could as his vision became less blurry and the person in front of him became visually more visible he sat there with disbelief
A sigh escaped his lips as he clearly saw who stood in front of him
There stood Archeion and Cyril standing behind him
Tell me why this prick can't fuck off for 1 day it would be appreciated very much if he did so
"Ah.. broth- Ahem I mean Archeion what brings you here?"
"Dane father and I were waiting for you to attend breakfast but you weren't coming so we were getting quite impatient I believe it's almost noon now" He checked his pocket watch before slipping it in his pocket from inside his suit
"11:37 quite rude to keep us waiting especially since we provide you with a comfortable and luxurious life but you go around causing us trouble if it weren't for us you would be somewhere on the streets dead for all I know" Archeion then let out a scoff glaring towards me
"Oh I didn't know you all were waiting on me" I say unbothered by his rude remarks towards me
And by trouble I think I know what he's referring to
I suddenly got snatched up almost falling over due to the fact that I just woke up and me getting up suddenly caught me off guard Archeion holding my arm tightly supporting me from almost falling over again which was caused by him grabbing me abruptly
I glare up at him to meet his provocative grin
He then dragged me out of my room pasting Cyril
Cyril then followed us glaring at Archeion and back at me giving me a sorry look as if he did something wrong
As we neared the dining room some servants at the sides of the doors quickly opened the door
Revealing some more servants and Aziel behind Deon and Dane near the right of Deon's side
Not to mention I was in sleeping attire and everyone was already dressed leaving me sticking out like a sore thumb
Gee thanks
Archeion shoved me into the room making me lose balance I grabbed onto one of the chairs and regained balance and turned only to see Archeion turn and sit near the left of deon
So hitting him wasn't an option I had to just suck it up
Great the morning was starting up eventful
Cyril was at the side of one of the other servants
I was the only one standing at this point so I went and sat on a chair 3 chairs away from Archeion
Earning a glare from Archeion and a chuckle from Dane
"Lewis you surely know that once you get an annulment you can't take it back it's not something you can simply have whenever you want" Deon stated the obvious seemed to make Lewis cringe of course he knew he wasn't THAT dumb like c'mon an annulment is no funny business
"Of course" I say spreading marmalade on a piece of nicely butter'd toast
"Don't be silly once the annulment is official you can't come back crying asking father to revoke the annulment"
I don't' have to glance up to know that Archeion was the one talking after all I've heard his voice much more then I would have liked
Ignoring Archeion seemed like a pleasant option so what did I do?
I smacked him no.. I wish "Revoke? No I wouldn't do such a inadequate thing I already have made such a big commotion it would be rather insolent to try to do so"
Taking a big bite of the toast with a abundance of marmalade smothered on nodding my head agreeing with my words
I look back at Archeion to see him annoyed taking a sip of his earl grey tea
Loser.
Turning my head back to my toast I heard a loud shatter
Eh?
"What insolent maid dared to serve me cold tea?!" Archeion screamed
One of the maid's fell on the floor sobbing asking Archeion to forgive her shaking and absolutely terrified
Deon simply told one of the maids to get the shattered pieces of the teacup cleaned up before anyone got hurt and to punish the maid accordingly while Dane paid no mind and continued reading a newspaper while taking small bites of his breakfast here and there
"HAH? Forgive you? get red of this wench take her out of my sight!"Arecheion pressed his forehead aggitated sliding his chair back and sitting back down
The maid was tooken away by some other servants well dragged but same thing
"Brother no need to be so harsh on the poor thing it was only a few thousand gold coins" Dane said swishing the newly freshly brewed hot tea taking a sip with a slight smile
Damn.
Only a few he said
Archeion simply glared at Dane earning a satisfied smirk in return from Dane
" I won't be attending family dinners anymore thank you for the meal" I blurt out
Before anyone could say anything I bow and exit the dining room with Cyril trailing behind me
"Cyril.."
"I want to take a walk outside maybe look at the garden could you help me get ready?"
"Of course"
I still wasn't comfortable having someone helping me bathe so I bathed while Cyril picked me an outfit
(Outfit)
I had undergarments on as I was well not gonna lie shy to be you know naked around a good looking guy but I mean who wouldn't
"Thank you I wouldn't be able to look this good without you're help" I said looking at my reflection
"It's my pleasure young master "
He doesn't have to be that formal.. With Cyril leading me to the garden I caught a glimse of outside as we we're walking through the halls and to my surprise what do I see? Clytius this day was just starting to get better but I guess not Bravo as expected from Clytius
"Uhm Cyril what's that asshol- I mean um I mean uh Clytius what's he doing here?"
Wouldn't they send a proper form of notice or something?..
"Clytius? what do you mean?" Cyril turned to look at me confused
" I see I guess you didn't know either but um.. He's standing over there in the front courtyard standing next to someone.. who?.." The person who stood at his side was none other than flora "EHHH???"
Cyril just stood there confused "If they were to come they would have to send notice as it is proper etiquette hm.."
Which only means that they came unannounced GREAT!
Arghhhhh I need an excuse asap Scrunching my hair while pacing back and forth while Cyril stared at me with a slight smile I suddenly got an idea whats that smart idea you might be asking?
"Cyril!"
Cyril stared at me amused and nodded his head slightly as to say go on
"I'm actually feeling sick so if his highness and the duke were to call for me could you say i'm not feeling well?"
"You seem quite fine to me" a rough voice spoke out
Turning away from Cyril there stood Aziel
DAMNNN IT
"Ahem cough cough ehrm I'm actually not feeling so well" I say forcing my voice to sound strained which only seemed to expose my facade more than it already was
Aziel just stood there with a unimpressed look on his face just stoic
"Is that so? then shall I call a physician for you?"
"OH UH UM No no that's fine i'm just slightly dizzy and my throat seems to be a little scratchy haha.."
"Then I shall tell the guests that you are unwell"
"ohhh is there guest here? oh what a pity I would like to greet whoever came" I say acting as though I didn't already know
"It seems so." With that Aziel slightly bowed leaving me and Cyril standing
"Cyril.. Is there another way to get to the outside?"
"I take it you don't feel unwell anymore?"
Whats with his cheeky grin
"Yea I guess not" I scoffed in return which only seemed to make his smile deepen
"Hmm.. Well there is but it's a rather long walk.."
It took 30 minutes to get to the garden but eventually we arrived and it's absolutely stunning the soft bright sunlight the wispy clouds the soft blue sky the range of beautiful colored butterfly's that flew around the flowers the well trimmed bushes everything was well kept the water that flowed so beautifully down the water fountain the water shined like diamonds like specks of jewels and as you kept walking you would find a river there also was a gazebo of a nice white color
BAM BAMM BAM Ta daa~ Pretty?? You can imagine the garden however you want but these are the vibes I'm tryna explain Like fairy tale unrealistic vibes
"Ouuuu Cyril let's go sit over there!" I pointed towards a big oak tree near the river
"Lewis how about we sit over here it has more shade and would probably be more comfort" Cyril directed his hand over to the gazebo yes pretty and all but still whats the fun in that
"There's seating an-" Before Cyril could finish his sentence Lewis dragged him towards the tree and sat down gesturing Cyril to sit besides him
"I'm fine standi-"
"Oouf"
Looking up from the grass was Lewis laughing his laughter was like candy for the ears the sound rang in his ears his eyes just stared mesmerized the soft breeze slightly drifting his hair and his hand holding his
"I told you to sit! I wouldn't have had to grab you and make you fall to the ground if you had listened"
Cyril was just laying there his hand held by the other and his heart fluttering with each word
"Cyril?.." Lewis tilted his head slightly waiting for a response
"Aww are you mad?" He waited for a response that didn't come
Staring with hands held
"Cyril!" Lewis yelled
Just then did Cyril finally realize that Lewis was talking to him he then sat up instead of laying and placed his focus back on Lewis
"I'm sorry what was it that you said?" Cyril said completely clueless as to what Lewis had said He was listening but the words Lewis said wasn't comprehended as he was only focusing on Lewis and nothing else just him and his voice
"Nothing" Lewis simply smiled relieved that the other wasn't mad
Cyril just sat there silent staring down
"Hm?" Lewis hummed confused
Whats he looking at?
Looking down to look at what Cyril was focusing on so seriously his eyes landed onto they're hands
HUHH??
He then quickly snatched his hand back flustered and face flushed
"S-s-sorry" Lewis spoke in a low tone
Cyril just stared at Lewis with a slight smile getting up to sit next to Lewis leaning back against the oak tree side to side
Arghh why's my heart pounding?! DO I already have diabetes?!
"Eep!-" feeling surprised by the sudden weight on his shoulder he turned to see Cyril asleep
Lewis just stared at Cyril's sleeping face starting to feel drowsy himself
Starting to feel sleepy as well Lewis closed his eyes head slightly laying onto Cyril's
