Caged
He had a free spirit, no one could deny that. As a Bookman apprentice, he traveled around the world, and nothing could stop him. He belonged to the world, and the world belonged to him. He didn't have a home to come back to. It wouldn't be reasonable to be inside a cage. It wouldn't be sane to willingly enter a cage and lock himself in it, throwing the keys away. And that's exactly what he did.
At the beginning, he wandered around the cage like a curious animal, a little rabbit, scared to approach but wanting to get closer. There was something about that cage, it was so… shiny. After some time, the caged seemed... friendly, and he thought that maybe he could take a closer look, and so he did.
After getting close, he knew: one step forward meant no coming back. The bunny merrily entered the cage, comfortably settling inside it.
"Lavi, dear. Wake up."
He opened his eyes. His face was surrounded by silver locks, his eyes hypnotized by shiny grey eyes. Arms and legs pressed him to the bed, the "cage" and himself covered by a white blanket. He yawned.
"Good morning, Allen"
The other started to get up, but Lavi pulled him down again and hid under the other's body.
"Lavi?"
"Let me stay here for a little while."
They smiled and snuggled closer. The previously free rabbit ironically found shelter, found his home inside a silvery cage, and threw away the keys.
