Summary: Cain spends the night in gentle waiting arms.
I know the plot is overused but oh well
Disclaimer: I own nothing at all
(Riff's P.O.V)
As the whip kept cracking down on master Cain's back, I had to fight the urge to go in and help him, least it bring an even more horrible punishment to master Cain. Finally after what seemed like hours which had only been mere minuets. The whip had finally stopped. Before I could offer a word, master Cain was down the hall and out of sight. Searching for him this time took a bit longer than usual but I had finally found him curled up at the end of one of the more deserted hallways. As always I would ask him" if he was alright" and he would always respond that" he was", before allowing me to pick him up and carry him to his room to and rewrap his bandages. I laid him down on the bed as I dressed his wounds. He whimpered a bit but we both knew the pain would fade in a couple of hours. As I was getting up to go Cain asked in an almost whisper "will you stay tonight riff? At least until I fall asleep?" At first I was a little shocked I found I couldn't say no to him. With a small smile I sat back down. "All right, I'll stay, master Cain. But only until you fall asleep." I said. "Thank you "he said, "Also stop calling me master." He turned over a in a few minutes he was asleep. With one last look I left the the room to my own.
(Time skip a few hours later, still Riff's P.O.V)
A piercing scream startled me out of my sleep, it was Cain. I was up and going to his room as fast as I could. When I got there he was trembling on the bed. "Nightmares?" I asked. All he did was node. Then he broke down sobbing into my arms. Where I held him until he fell asleep again. I must've dozed off because next thing I knew it was morning and Cain was waking up. I smiled at him and left to get ready for the day. When I returned to lay out his clothes he smiled and said "thank you for staying with me last night." I smiled back and said "you're welcome if you need anything call me" I said as a left the room. Then we began the day as master and servant.
I know it's short but thank you for reading. Please review. I know Cain is a little off.
