Finally! A new story for Subtle Inspirations! I have recently discovered Clay Aiken's music and had a fantastic realization that many of his songs remind me of our two favorite characters! This particular one reminded me of Wolfram, so I decided to take on his point of view. I hope that it works out well. I see him as a very formal individual with deep thoughts and ideas masked by a childish personality. I hope you like it!

I do not own Kyou Kara Maou, or the song Invisible by Clay Aiken. Please read and review!

Imperceptible

I leaned my head back against the cold hard cement wall of my bedroom. My eyes close as I sighed. A chill moves through the large room and I involuntarily shiver. No matter how much I try to resist my thoughts always drift in the same direction; towards Yuuri.

I never quite know what the boy is doing in that room all night until I barge in and force my way next to him on the bed. I want to believe that he just dreams quietly, but my overactive mind tends to wander.

Surely since Yuuri does not care for me…he has some other love interest? I just keep waiting to catch him in the act. One night I will enter that room and my most dreaded nightmares will have become reality. He will be cheating on me…

Oh how I wish that I could be an insect on his wall, waiting and watching over him. Why can I not just breathe him into my life? Why do I sit here and torment myself? I stand up and walk over to my door again. I turn the golden knob and walk out into the hallway down a very familiar path.

I stop outside his bedroom and face the large wooden doorframe. My hand rests softly on the intricate designs etched into the ingress. When I enter this room every night, the same thing happens.

I walk into the room, Yuuri rustles a little as I enter the bed. When I wake the next morning and leave the room he is still asleep.

Whether or not he even knows I am ever in the room is a mystery to me. After that the routine ensues. He goes off to signing papers and I go to train soldiers and do whatever else Gwendal has planned for me.

We rarely even see each other during the day anymore unless there is a problem, in which case he is too busy to talk to me. I can not help wondering what I can do to make him see that I exist.

I look at the pale hand in front of me. It is almost translucent in the dim lighting that the moon provides. For it to be true it would be a miracle. If I were invisible I could just watch him in his room. I roll my eyes at the foolish thought. I am such a child, though I hate to admit it.

Turning the doorknob silently is one of my newly acquired talents. I walk over to his bedside and sit on the edge ever so lightly so as not to disturb the sleeping form. If only I were invincible, I would make him mine.

This young king has a power over me that he himself does not understand. He has always had the power to break me with only a few simple words. I simply hope I never have to hear that I am no longer needed.

But alas my heart is not unbreakable, therefore I dare not tell him where I stand. Always looking over him in a desperate love that will never be returned.

The night passes like any other. So do the next few weeks, the same routine every night. When daylight comes however, the streets of Shin Makoku are alive and bustling. The king has brought with him a new era to my world. An era of peace and prosperity for both demon and human kind. He has changed my world in so many ways. Ways that I will never be able to thank him enough for.

We walk together through the town for a festival. Lady Annisuna clings to my brother's arm as she smiles and dances down the street. I laugh inwardly at the sight and wonder if they will ever realize that they are in love.

Conrad walks dangerously close to my fiancé, and Gunter may as well be on Yuuri's shoulder. I debate breaking them apart and yelling at Yuuri for cheating, but I hold back.

Instead I call out his name in a uncharacteristic whining tone I detest using, but it normally gets Yuuri to notice me. He either does not hear me, or is ignoring me thinking that I will complain about him being near those two. He is right…but that is a mute point. Either way…it pisses me off.

I call out to him again, and this time he pointedly flouts me. I can tell because his ears perk when he hears his name, and he still does not answer. I decide to give up for the moment and just wallow in self pity. I have been doing this too frequently as of late.

I follow him through the city as he enjoys himself at the festival. Tracing his steps and all the while wondering what he is thinking…if he ever thinks about me.

Suddenly he looks over at me. My heart skips a few beats when that goofy smile appears on his face and he waves me over to look at some meaningless object that he has decided he must have. I purchase it for him and he goes ridiculously happy.

This makes my heart flutter faster than it has in a long while. He takes such pleasure in ridiculous things, and it elates me beyond my own comprehension to make him smile this way. How I wish that the exuberant colors of his life would somehow touch mine.

I smile in a sarcastic manner and tell him he should be grateful that I love him so much as to buy him whatever he wants, and throw in something about how he is lucky to have a fiancé like me. I know he hates this, but I just can not resist. He gets all panicky whenever I speak to him like this and I find it absolutely adorable. When I look over my shoulder to see his expression he is no longer beside me.

Instead he is standing over with Conrad, detestable man, and showing him the toy I purchased for him. Lord Weller is talking animatedly with him about it and I swear I see what is left of my decent mood crash to the ground. Not that anyone notices.

I could probably be screaming and they would all keep walking, ignoring me like a child throwing a tantrum. I guess I can no longer blame them since until just a few weeks ago…I did throw such hysterics on a regular basis.

I am nothing without him, just a shadow passing through this life. I thought it was childish to wish I were invisible but…

I already am…
