Drabble: Murmur

Prompt: Murmur

Pairing: Shi-Long Lang x Klavier Gavin

Summary: Lang contemplated on his relationship with the evening and the latest addition to it.

P/N: The experimental pair that I'm working on. Don't get me wrong; the story IS still continuing. I'm just not publishing it for the general lack of reviews.


For Lang, he was most at peace in the evening. It was when everything was quiet that he would be able to appreciate the things he had done that day and reflect on his life.

When he was a child, he found the songs of the wind rustling up the leaves of the bamboo tree by his window soothing. It was his nightly lullaby until he became an officer.

In the academy, no matter what country he was in, he would find peace under the dark sky. He would think of that time as a child where the wind would sing him to sleep and caress his demons away.

As the head investigator of the House of Lang, night became his territory. He was friends with the dark and everything he did went smoother and had more purpose. He became something to fear at night.

And when life started catching up to him, Lang still found the welcome familiarity of the evening as his safe haven. It was now something he shared with the beautiful blond angel that was now in his arms.

But now the night was accompanied by something else: soft murmurs.

Klavier Lang nee Gavin had the habit of murmuring things in his sleep. They were often words of endearment or merely just Lang's name. Sleep would only come to the blond at night and Lang knew this.

He welcomed this change and accompaniment. Night and soothing whispers and murmurs. Him and Klavier. A perfect mix that needed no introduction.
