Chapter 10: Back to in Shin Makoku
He looked at him as the moon lights up his facial features. It was beautiful. The way he reacts when the moonlight touches his face, his blond hair shining like golden threads, his pale skin color blends well with the hue around them. As the night passes by, he found himself caressing Wolfram's hair.
It's weird, he never really thought of marrying Wolfram, but here he is now, lying with him in the same bed. And come to think of it, he always hated Wolfram bulging into his room, but now here he is caressing Wolfram's hair while lying with him in the same bed.
Wolfram was never the type of guy to lower himself to other people. He's too prideful to be humble. It's just that pride is all he had; because of that pride people respected him. Without his pride, there is nothing left to him; he would be nothing less but the ex-maou's third son. Gwendal is known for his leadership, while Conrad is known for his swordsmanship, but Wolfram, what is he known for? His resemblance to his mother? And that is why Yuuri married him, because of pity. He didn't have the heart to hurt the blond. It was too hard for him to do that. But now, Wolfram is getting a little space in his heart, day by day that space becomes bigger and bigger until it devours all of it.
Then night passes and a new day a rises…
"Hey Wolfram, Wolfram, wake up." Were the words that woke up the blond.
"What?" Was his only answer to him.
"Come on! It's almost noon and I'm hungry. Let's go have breakfast, then we will go back home." Yuuri said as he removes Wolfram's blanket.
"Fine, fine,"
After that, they went down to the hotel cafeteria and ate breakfast, while eating,
"Hey Wolfram, how do you think does this last?" Yuuri asked.
"What?" The blond asked back.
"This sickness I mean,"
"Oh, the girl thing; I have no idea. To be honest, I've never heard of this sickness before." He answered then continued eating.
"Oh, then how did you get it at the first place?"
"I don't know. I mean, Gisela never really explained it properly."
After eating, they packed their things and went home. When they arrived, as expected, a big hug welcomed them. Jennifer came running out the door and gave them a hug.
"Mom, were both dying here!" Yuuri said as Jennifer stops her suffocating hugs and kisses.
Oh I'm sorry Yuuri; I just missed you too much." She replied.
Then Wolfram went closer to Yuuri and whispered to the double black,
"What is she talking about, Yuuri? We've only been gone for one night."
Then Yuuri whispered back,
"I know she' quite-, that's just how she is. Aren't you supposed to be use to that? I mean, your mother never fails to give you a suffocating hug whenever she sees you doesn't she?"
"Yeah, you're right."
Instead of going to the living room, they went straight to Yuuri's room; I mean there room to rest from the long journey. Wolfram went straight to bed but Yuuri thought he should freshen up and take a shower. While Yuuri was taking a shower, he saw a whirlpool on his bathtub, and then he said to himself,
"I guess that's our Q." Then called out the blond, "Hey Wolfram!"
Then the blond entered the bathroom, seeing the whirlpool,
"What the" Was the only thing he could say.
Then the double black pulled the blond into the tub and both got sucked in it.
Back to Shin Makoku…
"So I guess we're back," The blond exclaimed.
The only thing that Yuuri could give is a sigh.
Then the voice of the royal aide was heard all over the hall way.
"Your majesty!"
"Gunter?" He asked sarcastically, he kind of figured out that this would happen.
"Here we go again…" The blond said with a disappointed tone.
Yuuri and Wolfram never really had any bonding with each other. I mean, alone, with no one bothering them. They never had time to talk and get to know each other more. They are married but barely knew anything about their spouse. So that's why, when Gunter tries to welcome Yuuri with a hug, Yuuri pushed him away and said,
"Not now Gunter, we're tired." While crossing his arms around his chest.
The royal aide almost burst into tears when he heard what his maou said. And as usual, in situations like this, Gunter would turn dramatic.
"Oh your majesty, does your servant Gunter bother you that much that you're pushing me away now?" He said, over-reacting.
"Gunter I never said that…" The young maou said with a I don't care tone.
"What's with the two of you?" The blond asked referring to the two, crossing his arms and twitching his eye brow.
The young king sighed, then he went closer to Wolfram and grabbed his hands, he placed Wolfram's hand and placed it on his chest. And then he said,
"We never had any time for each other since we got married."
"What's with you? We always go on picnics these past few months." The blond asked confusedly.
"That's not it. I mean, time for the two of us. Alone." He said irritably at first, and then he blushed, a little. It's not that noticeable.
"The two of us?" He asked with confusion drawn all over his face, and then he said, forcing his hands out of Yuuri's,
"And why are you asking now?" he said with a sarcastic tone.
Again, Yuuri emitted a sigh; he grabbed the blonde's collar and pulled him away.
"Hey stop it! You can't treat me like this! I demand an explanation! Where are we going?" He said angrily.
The double black didn't answer. He just grabs a hold of Wolfram's collar and pulled him away while Gunter cried himself.
Yuuri released Wolfram's collar and faced him.
"So where do you want to go? It's a long day. We can go anywhere you want," The maou said excitedly.
"Well, let's see…" He said as he thinks of a place to go, after all, this is a special because Yuuri is the one who gave the invitation.
"Aha! We could go to the…" He stopped; he went closer to Yuuri's ear and whispered…
"- to my secret place…" He whispered, and then he grinned.
"Secret place?" Yuuri was interrupted by Wolfram's,
"SSSSSHHHHHHHH…… Nobody knows about it so zip it!" He said with a much louder tone.
"Well then, it's settled, we'll go there. But first, I think we should change our clothes first, we're soaking wet." The young maou said.
After changing there clothes, Wolfram and Yuuri sneaked out of the palace and grabbed a horse. They only used one horse because it would make people suspicious if there were two horses missing. Gwendal might send out a search party for the horses….hehehe…
While they were traveling,
"Hey Wolfram, I'm bored. Aren't we there yet?" The young maou asked.
"We've only been traveling for about an hour and you're already bored?" The blond prince asked.
"That's the thing; we've already been traveling for an hour and yet were not yet there. And besides, my back hurts." The young maou said, quite annoyed.
"Hey I'm the woman here and my back doesn't even hurt a bit. You're such a wimp!" The blond replied with an even annoyed tone.
Oh yeah, I forgot you're a girl today?"
"What? You forgot?" The blond said, he's angry now.
"Wolfram, calm down a little." The maou said, sweat-dropping with that goofy smile on his face. The blond sighed.
"Well I guess there's really no reason for me to get mad." The blond's spirits was lifted up, his eyes widened, and then he said,
"Look Yuuri, were here…"
Yuuri jumped out of the horse first, and then Wolfram followed. As he looked around, His eyes widened. The place was garden-like, although it was more wonderful, beautiful, and extravagant; it was perfect, just like the blond beside him. Perfect. Yes, perfect is the word to describe the place and his husband. There were more of grasses than trees, but although the trees are out numbered, it bears mouth-watering fruits that you can't bear not to taste.
"Wow!" was the only thing the maou could say.
"See, I'm right aren't I." The blond said with a proud tone.
"This place is…perfect. No wonder you like it."
"I've never shown this place to anyone, just you. Lady Suzannah Julia brought me here along time ago. This was her secret place too. I'm not sure if she ever told Conrad about this place, but I'm pretty sure she hasn't. She told me to keep it a secret."
Oh, then why did you bring me here?"
The blond just sighed, he thought,
'There are two reasons why I brought you here, Yuuri. One, is because you have Julia's soul. I kind of miss going with her here, that's why I showed you this place, to show you your life before you were even born. Two, is because I love you, and I want to make you happy. I want to feel that you love me too even though you don't. And by bringing you here, it feels like we are going to a date.'
Then he said to the double-black,
"It's a secret too." Then he crossed his arms.
"Hey, that's not fair!"
"Nope, it's fair." He said with a smile on his face, he was almost laughing.
After that Wolfram started running through the lush grass.
"Hey wimp, catch me if you can!' The blond said with a smile on his face.
"Hey, don't call me that! I'm not a wimp! And besides, I'm going to catch you" Then he started chasing after the blond which was quite romantic.
