Alex was worried. When they had been trapped at the MI headquarters, it had seemed like a good idea to let Yassen steal him away, but now he was not so sure. He had fallen asleep on the way to wherever it was Yassen was bringing them and by the time he woke up they where there. Now he was sitting in a soft leather chair in front of a fireplace in a quite big room with wooden panels. The room had no windows and the only way out was through a single door, which was locked. A big brown couch was placed in the middle of the room in front of a low table. It was on that couch Alex had woken up.
Alex had no idea of how much time had passed since they escaped, but he did not really care. He did know that he had been awake for a long time and that the room was completely void of anything to do, and because of that, Alex soon became incredibly bored. He had tried to amuse himself but ended up lying on the cough just thinking and soon he was once again met with the problem of his father. In truth Alex did not know what to do, and he was scarred. He really just wanted someone to tell him what to do. He ended up being so caught up in his thoughts that he didn't hear or notice Yassen entering the room.
Yassen stood there for a while just starring. He smiled willfully and walked silently towards him. He was humming again, a song Yassen never had heard before. He heaved a sigh and decided to just get it over with. He had imagined many ways as for how his reunion with Alex would go, but this one had not been one of them.
Alex starred at Yassen and felt his sanity return, in a small part of his brain he wondered how long it was going to stay this time, but he quickly forgot about it when Yassen spoke. "Good morning little Alex, did you sleep well?"
Yassen's voice was low and soothing. Something Alex really did not get and it wasn't fair. Yassen was a terrifying assassin. He was not supposed to have such a soothing voice, a voice that made you feel so safe and wanted. He pouted to himself and looked up at Yassen. He was staring at him with a weird look in his eye, but Alex decided to just ignore it. He would never really get Yassen anyway.
"Yes" was the only thing he answered and Yassen raised his eyebrows. He had expected Alex to say more. Perhaps demand knowing where they where and why he had been looked in, but he asked about none of that. "Why did you decide to come?"
Yassen did a double take. Then he quickly composed himself, he really never could foresee what Alex would react. "I just wanted to come visit my little Alex to see if he was okay" he said smiling. And silently adding `and to make you safe` in his mind. He walked closer before he lifted Alex's head up and slipped under it so that it rested on his lap.
For some weird reason Alex actually believed him, even though he couldn't help but believe there was something he wasn't telling him, but he decided to let it be for now. He sighed and just lay there for a while before the question eating at him just busted out. "Are you going to kill me?" The moment the question left his mouth he regretted ever asking. Did he even really want to know? If a man like Yassen wanted you dead there was nothing you could do with it so what was the point of asking. He bit his lip and worriedly awaited his doom.
Yassen frowned. He thought he had been clear about this on the phone, but apparently Alex needed a bit more reassuring. "No, Alex I am not going to kill or harm you in any way. He patted the boys head and tried to figure out a way to say what he wanted to say. Then he decided to just spit it out.
"I did not intend to come here before I had deleted my record, but when MI6 moved in on you again, I decided that now where the time, so when you slept I completed what had to be done for my record to disappear." Yassen grew silent and Alex just laid there wondering where Yassen was going with this. "I had intended since our last meeting that when my business was settled I would come here to collect you. And to make you safe from all that meant you harm."
Alex was shocked and sad. Yassen was speaking in past tense¸ which Alex interpreted to mean that he no longer intended to do that. He must have changed his mind when he found out that John Rider was not his real father.
Yassen noticed the sad look in Alex's eyes and knew he had to finish. "I still intend to take you away from MI6 Alex." He said quietly and meet the boy's eyes. "Now there is just more I have to help you with so I do not believe we can leave England as soon as I hoped we could, but do not worry. You will do no more missions for MI6, CIA or any other people." Yassen drew his breath and formulated what he had been wondering since the phone call. "is this something you are doing to get MI6 to leave you alone or are you really as insane as you seem?" he asked and meet the boys glittering eyes. Alex smiled mysteriously up at him, but on the inside he felt hysteria press against his mind.
"I… I honestly do not know…" He whispered before he buried his head in Yassen's lap and cried.
