I'll Stand By You

by Melt1397

"Why you look so sad, Arthur? Tears are in your eyes, it's so unlike you." Arthur smirked sadly. "Wow Alfred. I'm impressed. Way to state the obvious." He joked weakly. Then he silently frowned through his tears and said, "And it's not 'Why you' g-git."

Hey guys!

Here's a new oneshot I thought up of. I was bored, again, and this song popped into my head and I thought of this~! XD

So, ENJOY!

Tears leaked out of the man's eyes as he huddled in the dark alone.
Sobs raked his body, and he trembled with grief and rage.
'Damn you Francis! Why? Why do you have to be such an ass? Why can't you just restrain yourself and stay with one person? Why is that so hard?'
A painful gasp escaped his red and raw lips, and he completely broke apart.
Pieces of him floated around the small room, and he cried harder.
The tears echoed, repeating themselves in his ears, reminding him of his pain, and making it so much worse.
A crack of light entered his field of his vision, but he was broken, and he didn't care.
It didn't matter, nothing mattered.
Another broken sob escaped his lips, and he heard a deep sigh.
Frightened, he started to frantically wipe away the tears and compose what was left of his broken self, when he felt a warm hand grasp his shoulder comfortingly.
"Why. Why you look so sad, Arthur? Tears are in your eyes, it's so unlike you."
Arthur smirked sadly.
"Wow Alfred. I'm very impressed. Way to state the obvious." He joked weakly.

Then he silently frowned through his tears and said, "And it's not ' Why you', it's 'Why do you', g-git."
Alfred chuckled.

A bright smile graced his lips, and it seemed to light up the whole room, but then it disappeared being replaced by a concerned frown.
"Come on."
"W-what?"
"Come on. Come to me and give me a hug. I'll comfort you."
Arthur scoffed, but hesitantly snuggled into the taller's arms desperately needing the comforting human contact.
"Don't be ashamed to cry, Artie. Everybody does. No one will look down on you. Let me help. I can see you through. I care for you Arthur."
Arthur responded with a trembling sob.

Tears trailed down his face, and for once in his life he let them.
His body shook with tears and he gasped with pain.

He was out of breath but still he cried on.

He cried on and on and on in Alfred's arms, until his gasps for breath slowly transformed into the shallow breathes of sleep.
"I have seen the dark side to." Alfred whispered as his worn friend fell slowly into a peaceful sleep.

"When the night falls on you and you don't know what to do. I'll be there, by your side, holding you just like this while you sleep. I'll protect you. And when you need someone to talk to. I'll be there, cuz nothing you confess will make me love you less. God, Arthur, I love you." He whispered in the smaller's tired ear,

"More than anything in the whole world... I'll stand by you Artie, cuz you are the one thing in the world that means anything to me."
And they sat there, the rest of the night, in the dark, wrapped in each other's arms.
