A/N: This will be about 5 chapters. 1 chapter=1 day and this is over the course of 5 days. So yeah.

"Guten Morgen Gilbert. Guten Morgen Hasan. How is the new prisoner doing?"

"Guten Morgen Herr Kaiser. Hasan and I were just going to check on him actually."

"I see. Well I think I shall join the two of you today. Just as an observation."

"Of course Herr Kaiser. Come Hasan."

The three of us walk down the row. It was quiet and all you could hear was the sound of our boots hitting the concrete floor. When we got to the cell door Matthew was in the same position I had left him in except for he was now right in front of us.

"Prisoner J-17. Stand up and move away from the door."

I could see him tense up at the harsh sound of Hasan's voice. Mein Gott, Hasan. I slowly crouch down in front of him and wrap my hands around the bars.

"Matthew. Please move over to the bed. We could like to enter your cell."

He looks up at me with those young, violet eyes of a small child. I could slightly see his head nod. Both Matthew and I stand up at the exact same pace and then he goes over and sits down on his bed. Hasan takes out his keys and unlocks the cell door, giving me a harsh glare while he was at it.

"If you make any move J-17, I will not hesitate to sedate you by any means necessary."

"I'd like to see you try!"

Hasan quickly goes for his baton but I catch ahold of his hand and stop him. I slowly push myself in front of him and open the cell door.

"Don't you dare touch Matthew! We will kill you all!"

I slide into the cell and close the door behind myself, leaving Hasan and Herr Kaiser outside. The look Matthew gives me sends chills down my spine. I take a deep breath and sit down on the floor in front of the bed and remove my hat.

"Hello Matthew. That is your name correct?"

"Y-Yes. I am Matthew. Shut up you fool!"

I slowly reach my hand towards the cowering boy on the bed.

"What the fuck do you want?"

"I only wish to speak with the two of you. I believe your name is Madeline? Matthew had mentioned you last night."

I could see his body relax when I spoke to him.

"He talked about me? Huh. Stupid fool."

His/her voice was very high-pitched and raspy compared to Matthew's natural voice, which was soft and very calm.

"May I speak to Matthew please?"

"Gilbert! Get out of there now!"

Matthew slowly gets off of the bed and sits down in front of me. His legs were crossed and his arms were relaxed at his sides.

"Madeline likes you better than the others. But she wants the harsh one to go away or else she will beat him to death with his own baton. That's right you fools."

"Listen to them Hasan, Herr Kaiser."

Before Hasan could protest, Herr Kaiser grabs ahold of his arm and drags him out of sight.

"Th-thank you sir."

"Call me Gilbert, Matthew."

"Don't talk to him that way you imbecile! You're just going to kill him! That's why this is called death row!"

"I am just a guard. I do not perform the executions. Hasan, Christian, and Wolfi do all of this."

"I think he is telling the truth Maddie. Fine. G-Gilbert, why are you being so nice to me?"

His question had caught me off guard. Why? I don't even know myself.

"Because not everybody chooses to be bad Matthew. I think that Madeline was just trying to protect you from those people."

He was silent for who knows how long after this. The look in his eyes showed that he had a sudden realization about everything that happened. I sigh and look down at my hands.

"It's getting late. I will be back tomorrow. Is that alright with Maddie?"

"Don't call me that! And like I fucking care! I-I think she's alright with it."

"Gut."

Before I could stop myself I lean forwards and place a kiss on his forehead. Quickly, before he or she had time to respond, I ran out of the cell quickly locking it before I went to my office. And there I sat, thinking about what I did. Wait. I put my hand on my head. My hat. I slowly get out of my chair and quietly go down to Matthew's cell. He was sleeping on the floor, using my hat as a pillow. I guess I could get it tomorrow.

"Good night Matthew, Madeline."

A/N: that was a quick response. I expected most of anything to start popping up tomorrow. That's what usually happens when I put up a fic.
