Prologue
"Feliciano I understand you are in a lot of pain right now. However, magic can be dangerous and...unstable sometimes. Especially when it comes to matters of the heart. You might end up hurting yourself or people you never meant to. Are you sure you're willing to take that risk?" Arthur's voice resounded through the cave echoing as it went. Feliciano nodded his head. He had thought it over many times on his journey to find this strange man. Feliciano hated pain and, from what he had heard magic could be an unfortunate source of it. However, nothing could be worse than the feeling of dejection he had been enduring the last few months. "Yes." He said, and his voice cracked. "Please."He dropped to his knees before the Englishman. "I...I don't want to feel this way anymore. Take it away or..or make me forget.t. Please! You have to help me!" He wailed. Arthur looked at the man sobbing in front him. "Come now, there's no need for that." Arthur said. Feliciano continued.
"It can't be that bad! Stop your sniveling." He demanded, now uncomfortable and annoyed with the weeping guest. Feliciano tried to calm himself or at least restrain his sobs but, it was all too much. His cries continued loud and bouncing off the walls of the cave."Baby." Arthur muttered under his breath, before he took Feliciano's chin and lifted his head so he was looking up at the blonde. Feliciano finally shut up, only a few quick hiccups making it pass his throat before the cave was silent. If Arthur was performing a spell Feliciano didn't dare risk messing it up. Arthur took a deep breath and closed his eyes as if concentrating on solving a difficult problem. Than lifted the hand not supporting Feliciano's head and placed it on his damp cheek. Arthur had barely touched the soft surface before pulling his hand back as if Feliciano's cheek were an open flame. His eyes snapped open in alarm and he jumped back, lost his balance and fell with a thud on his rear. A stifled groan escaped from between his clenched teeth, as he brought a hand to his chest and clutched the skin and bone that lay over his heart. Arthur shut his eyes again, this time not for concentration. This time it looked as if trying to block a painful memory. Feliciano stared at him afraid. Had the spell backfired? Had he done something wrong? Feliciano began to panic and was close to running back through the mouth of the cave from which he'd entered. But, Arthur interrupted his thoughts of escape.
"I'll help you." He whispered still on the ground, but his face was no longer contorted in pain. He took a few calming breaths before he rose to his feet and turned to Feliciano. "He's crying." Feliciano realized as he saw tears escape and roll down Arthur's pale cheek. "What did I do to him?" Feliciano wondered even more apprehensive now than he had been before. Arthur used the sleeves of his cloak to wipe away the tears and after a soft sniffle he gave the ghost of a smile. "Right then. Shall we begin?" He asked composing himself, than raising one fuzzy eyebrow. He turned away and walked farther into the cave and it's darkness. Feliciano let out a shaky breath and looked back at the faint light coming from the front of the cave before he ran after Arthur. Praying that everything would be alright.
