Chapter 2: Sun Set

Days passed and he was beginning to feel weak, not just because he haven`t eaten yet but because he couldn`t escape. all he would do is reject any offer of food, that`s the only small rebellion he could do. Everyday Arthur would visit him and try to feed him but it never helped, Kiku never touched the food and if Arthur forces it in his mouth he would spit it out

"Damn it you`re stubborn...I won`t let you out of here until you eat..." he said, but only silence answered him. "Fine have it your way!" he yelled, he stormed out of the room, closed the door and locked it and again Kiku was alone.

"Kiku...I came to feed you and you better eat it this-Kiku!"

Arthur dropped the tray of food as he rushed to the crumpled figure on the ground, Kiku passed out due to not eating for the past week. Arthur carefully picked him up and carrying him bridal style.

"it was a stupid Idea and you know it!" he spat and he rushed to his quarters "I told you even if you tried I`ll force you to live" he exclaimed as they near to their destination.

Kiku flickered his eyes open, he's in an unfamiliar place, and it was a bed room. he was lying down on a four poster bed and there was a table in the far corner which is cover in maps and compasses, he noticed the dresser at his far left and the sword rack at his right, there`s a door where he doesn`t know where it leads too, he noted the curtains were blood red with gold accents and a large portrait hanging on the wall.

"Well do you like my room?"

Kiku whipped his head to the source; Arthur is standing by the door way with another tray of food on his hands. Kiku only glared at him for a moment before turning his head. Arthur approached him and set the tray on the bedside table.

"You have to eat...you already passed out" he said but Kiku only kept quite. "You're starting to get on my nerves" he grabbed his wrist and forced him to look at him "what is your fucking damn problem?" still silence, Arthur let go of his hands and took a spoon full of the food "Just eat"

he gestured the food to Kiku`s mouth but refuse to open, Arthur`s getting real pissed he forces Kiku`s mouth open and shoved the food in. Kiku almost chocked before accidentally swallowing it, Arthur smiled and took another spoon full.

"see now eat up" he did the same process but this time Kiku was able to slap the hand away and the spoon flew out of Arthur`s hand "Damn it! why won`t you just do as you`re told!" he hissed grabbing Kiku`s wrist again "you`re a very bad boy..."

Kiku only glared at him before he spoke "I do not listen to anybody...if you`re irritated then just kill me" he spat "it`s better to die than lose my honour!" but Arthur`s expression changed, his eyes are now filled with sadness.

"No I can never do that...my heart won`t take it..." he stood up and picked the spoon up "I`ll get another one just wait here..." he left the room leaving Kiku to stared at him.

"What`s wrong with him...first cruel and irritating now gentle and kind?"

Arthur returned with another spoon, Kiku looked up as he slowly made his way to him.

"Now would you please just eat up..." he took another spoon full but Kiku still refuses to eat "please...I don`t want you to die of starvation just eat up..." his eyes are filled with worry and concern.

Feeling sorry, Kiku complied and took the food in, happy Arthur took another spoon full and Kiku would eat it. Arthur fed Kiku until the plate was empty, Kiku only stared at him and Arthur gave him a gentle smile which led to a faint blush appearing.

"Well take a good rest okay..." he picked up the tray and headed for the door.

Kiku`s heart was beating fast, he couldn`t help but blush, he remembered the Captain`s face and his smile, Why `am I thinking about him? He thought as he went to sleep.

Kiku woke up, wishing that everything was just a nightmare but unfortunately his wishes didn`t come true. He noticed clothes laid down neatly on the table there was even shoes set for him, with no choice he wore the clothes, he was now wearing a sky blue dress shirt and black trousers he tucked the trousers in the boots; the clothes are a bit too big.

He decided to go to the deck and look for the captain, he was still feeling weak. upon entering the deck he noticed the sun hasn`t risen yet, also some men would pause from their work and stare at him then back to work again, ignoring it Kiku went to search for the captain till someone called his attention.

"Well did you sleep well?" he turned his head to see the captain smiling at him, a faint blushed appeared on his face but he tried to hide it.

"Well not really" he said looking away from him.

Arthur suddenly grabbed his hand and brought him to the balcony, "you know you`re just in time" he said as he pointed to the horizon.

Kiku`s eyes widen in shock he has never seen a sun set is very beautiful, as the sun sets the ocean sparkles and the sky becomes Orange, surely this is a scene you could never forget.

"I have never seen something like this before" he said as he looked at Arthur, a faint blush has appeared on his face

"What? You`ve never seen the sun set" Arthur raised a brow.

"No...Yao always keeps me locked up in my room, never allowed to leave castle grounds unless he said so" he said with sad eyes as he remembers being locked up in his room all day.

"You know I haven`t seen something this beautiful before until now" Arthur said a faint blush has also appeared on his face.

"I thought you`ve seen this before?" Kiku questioned, surely Arthur would see a scene like this so many times.

Arthur chuckled and cupped Kiku`s cheek, "I didn`t mean the scene I mean you" he said as he leaned down closer to Kiku`s face just Inches away.

Kiku blushed furiously and pushed Arthur away "get away!"

Arthur chuckled and gave him a kiss on the fore head "Why don`t you return to the cabin, I`ll get dinner ready, okay my beautiful princess" he said as he pulled away.
