So... Here I am, with another pointless fanfiction, born from my brain after watching Alexander and Dallas Buyers Club one after another. (Note to self: STOP WATCHING SO MANY MOVIES!)
This was ready some weeks ago, but now that I can finally work in peace, here it is :D
Well, so I hope you enjoy (and understand this, because, once again: english is not my native language) the story.
Please, forgive my silly mind. This is going to be awkward, well... Here I go.
Hephaestion looked at the city of Babylon from the balcony.
It looked so beautiful at night.
The kingdom was growing, and with that growth, the threats against Alexander were growing too.
They were not only gaining territory, but also treasures and valuable things that men always coveted.
He didn't want to think about it, but there were high possibilities of a conspiracy against Alexander.
-And if he dies, the kingdom, all that we've achieved, it would fall apart without a leader.
Hephaestion knew it
Alexander needed an heir.
-And of course I cannot do that. - The blue eyed man touched his belly. –Useless body. - He growled.
He kept looking at the city until Alexander's voice distracted him.
-Hephaestion, aren't you coming to sleep?
-Yes, I'll be there in a second.
He gave Babylon a last glance and walked into the bedroom, where Alexander was waiting for him, already in bed.
-Come here, I need your heat; this weird city can be cold at night.
Hephaestion sat by his side, silently.
-Can I help you with your braids?
-If you want to…
Alexander sat behind the brunette and started undoing the two little braids that were at both sides of his head.
After finishing that and combing his hair, Hephaestion lay in bed and sighed.
-Is there anything bothering you, love? - asked Alexander, hugging him.
"The fact that, no matter what I do, I'll never be able to give you an heir and you'll have to find a wife"
-Meaningless things, Alexander, don't worry. We should sleep, now, don't you think?
-Yes… I'm really tired…
They covered themselves with the blankets and fell asleep easily.
