Chapter 34
Last night was so tiring so I slept late and didn't bother to get up early. Everything was peaceful; my mind was at rest until someone knocked at my door. I didn't bother to answer it but it kept going on so I got up and opened the door.
It was Lavi.
"If you want something, kindly bother me tomorrow."
I then closed the door after saying that. I went back to sleep and resumed my sleep.
.
*Lilia's point of view
This is bad. Lavi saw me or rather he saw Cordelia when she possessed me. We both have to be careful next time. He is already suspicious and I don't want to cause problems for Alyce. She is already has enough as it is.
I talked with Cordelia into getting the books after a week or until Lavi's suspicions lowers. I really can't risk him finding out. I think he already knows about Allen. I can't let him find out about this or Alyce will really get into trouble.
.
*Lavi's point of view
I already finished the work before lunch and slept afterwards continuously until the next day. I went to Alyce's room after eating but it seems she slept late and closed the door on me. I guess I'll ask her tomorrow.
And I'll try confirming things about Allen too. I never really had a chance to ask.
.
*Lenalee's point of view
I knew that Alyce did sleep late but it was already almost time for dinner so I went to her room to wake her up. I knocked at her door but no answer came. The door was opened so I came inside.
I closed the door behind me when I got in.
I looked inside and saw Alyce still in bed with her back facing me.
"It's already time for dinner, Alyce. Please get up."
"I don't feel like getting up."
"What's wrong, Alyce?"
"Nothing is."
"Then get up. You can't skip all the meals."
"I don't want to."
"Stop acting like a child. You're older than me."
"Can I be a child then?"
"Why?"
I said as I came closer to her and sat by her bed.
"What's wrong, Alyce? We are friends. You can tell me if it can help."
"Everything is just so wrong."
She didn't speak and just held onto me. I embraced her tightly as a way of comfort. I didn't tell her to let it all out since Alyce isn't really that way. When something troubles her, she won't cry or ask for advice. She just asks you to accompany her and hold her in an embrace for awhile.
We stayed like that in silence for half an hour until someone knocked. It was Lavi.
"What's taking you so long?"
"We'll be there in a sec. Go first."
"Okay."
"I feel better now. Thanks, Lenalee."
"You really won't tell me?"
"You already know me."
"Yeah, I do."
We then got up then walked out the door then to the cafeteria.
.
*Alyce's point of view
I already finished speaking with the officials the days before. And I was also done with the paperwork. I've only got duties left as an exorcist and general but akuma aren't that active lately for some reason unknown so only a few were sent at a time. Tyki is still unconscious but recovering well.
I haven't got much to do tonight so I went to the room where they placed him.
I sat down on the chair by his bed while talking with the nurse who took care of his wounds. After that, she left me alone with him.
What am I suppose to do here anyway? Why did I come again?
I don't really know. It's not like I can ask him questions since he's still unconscious. I stayed there for awhile and let my hand stroke his hair.
"Get well soon, Tyki. You've got a lot of questions to answer."
"Really?"
I took my hand that stroke his hair away but he held onto it with his calloused hand.
"You're awake?"
I don't even know why I asked such a stupid question. He's obviously awake right now. His voice sounded hoarse so I handed him the glass of water on the table. He drank it then spoke once more with a clearer voice.
"Barely."
"Go back to sleep then and please let go of my hand."
"Let me thank first the lady who has helped me."
"If you wish to thank me then do your best to recover, my lord. You've got a lot of things to do."
"Anything to please you then, my lady."
"Goodnight, my lord."
I said as I tried once more to take my hand away but he held onto it more firmly then let his lips touched it before I stood up.
"Goodnight," said Tyki as I left then closed the door behind me.

(^.^) Kylie: I hope you liked this chapter.
And well, I guess it was a bit confusing but to make things clear, Cordelia is a ghost possessing Lilia but at times, she also possesses the doll. Cordelia is not necessarily the doll but a ghost possessing Lilia and the doll. Sorry if it was confusing. And the next chapters might get more confusing so I'll do my best to make things clearer.
