Authors Note: This fanfiction is written in response to the request of a friend. She wished for a Conrad/Yozak fiction where Conrad realizes his feelings after some sort of accident occurs. She wanted to see the story mostly from the POV of the other characters besides these two however. The result of my efforts is this fiction, which, honestly, I'm not too sure what to think of myself.I figured what the heck however, and decided to post it since it was already written anyways.

This fic is un-beta-ed, so be gentle. Constructive criticism is appreciated, Flames are not.


~ Yozak POV ~

"I love you'.

The words echoed in Yozak's head like a cacophony and left him speechless.

All he could do was stare at Conrad like an idiot, like he was a back to being a teenager who had never been confessed to before.

Yozak had had an endless number of admirers, getting people to like him was just a part of his job, but this...

Conrad was his best friend, his captain, the person he cared for more than anyone in the world, the person he would do anything for.

Conrad was the person he thought would never look at him twice beyond friendship.

But here he was, lying next to him after confessing and looking like whatever Yozak said to him next could shatter him to pieces, which, honestly, made no sense whatsoever.

It was only when Conrad reached up and wiped away the tears that Yozak hadn't even realized he was shedding that it became obvious that this wasn't some sort of crazy coma dream.

Grabbing the hand by his face, Yozak searched Conrad's eyes for the answers he needed. He may not know why Conrad had seemingly changed his mind about Yozak overnight, but he could tell that he wasn't being lied to about it, (Conrad never could lie to Yozak).

Faced with the truth of Conrad's feelings Yozak gave the only answer possible for him while struck speechless like he was.

He leaned forward and kissed him.

Conrad didn't respond at first but soon got with the program and was responding eagerly. Whatever happened next, whether this turned out to be a long-lasting thing or just a short one, he knew he would always have Conrad's back, and was convinced now that the Captain would always have his as well.

Heck, if this was the outcome Yozak should have gotten himself into trouble years ago.


~ Yuuri POV ~

The floor was cold, his shoulder was cramped, he was fairly sure Cheryl-sama had been using his head as an armrest and he thought it was Gunter that he himself was draped across in an effort to keep his balance.

Despite the discomfort staying positioned at the crack in the door to Conrad's room all night had caused, the inhabitants of Blood Pledge Castle wouldn't have given up the chance to watch Conrad and Yozak's reunion for anything.

This was most especially true after the kiss, and even Yuuri was forced to agree with Gwendal's huffed 'Well it's about time'.

Slowly but surely, everyone moved away from the door and eventually Raven was able to remove even Cheryl-sama from her place above Yuuri in the doorway.

Taking one last look back as he walked away with Gunter down the hallway, Yuuri couldn't help but smile at the thought that his guardian and his bodyguard/spy were finally getting their chance to be happy.

Now if he can only convince Gwendal to come up with a safer way for Yozak to do his job, (or at least stick around the castle more often), Yuuri knew that things would be perfect, because a happy Conrad was far more effective than an unhappy Conrad, which could only mean good things for Yuuri's kingdom.

Maybe it would be best to call in Murata on this one, (the Great Sage always was the most devious out of all of them).
