I didn't mean to
~...X…~
*Scrub* *Scrub* *Scrub*
"Yeah, you're doing well. Keep it up." Black clapped his hands lazily, his body leaning on the cold stone wall of the jail, his single red wine eye lock on a certain "foreigner." "Oh, you miss a spot." He grinned amusingly at the sight of Lucian on the ground scrubbing the bloody floor with a yellow sponge in her hand that he had just caused moments ago. Killing faceless prisoners is just something this jerk loves to do in his past time and now he's enjoying it more than before. The sight of his (beloved) maid on the ground, scrubbing the pool of blood was a beautiful sight. It truly was, in fact he wanted to kill another faceless prisoners just for the heck of seeing Lucian's annoyed face. "Hey, idiot you missed a spot!" How could he tell Lucian that she missed a spot when the floor was covered in a pool of blood, he might be talking about that big spot of blood.
"..." Lucian gritted her teeth, trying to control herself from wanting to hit Black standing behind her with that smug on his annoying yet handsome perfect face. This jerk. Why did I agreed to live in this territory…...I kind of regret it, she heavily sighed as she continue to scrub the floor with more force than she had intended to put. God, why I would so love to smack his face just once, a small smile creep up on her face just from thinking the feeling of her knuckles on Black's beautiful face.
"..." Black's eye narrow thinking that Lucian was ignoring him on purpose. Well he couldn't blame the poor young lady who has been working her butt off since she started living with him and his counterpart. All he did was make her work and work, clean that, clean over there, wash the clothes, make food, fix his bed, and clean his toilet. Okay that last one was not necessary, Okay, she's ignoring me. Maybe I over did it, the red headed thought before stepping over to Lucian.
"Hey." Again no respond came from Lucian, "Tch," clicking his tongue he grabbed Lucian by the wrist, "Stop ignoring me, damn it!" Black spun Lucian around so he could take a good look on her face. Sure he enjoys annoying her, but he doesn't like being ignored, especially by Lucian.
"Huh! What?!" Lucian exclaimed, that without thinking, she swings her arm back the one that Black was holding.
*Smack*
"Haa!" Lucian gasped her eyes wide open. It took her few seconds before finally grasping what she had just done. Well at least she now knows the feeling of smacking Black's face. "Black, sorry I didn't meant to-!"
"What the hell woman?!" Black angrily shouted, cutting Lucian off. "Why the hell did you smack my face?!"
"It was accident!" Lucian shouted back as she tried to pull her arm back from Black's iron grip, "And what were you doing standing behind me?!"
"You were ignoring me so I walked over to you!" Black forcefully pulled Lucian towards him knowing that she was going to run away once her arm is free but he wasn't going to let that happen. "And then you suddenly fucking smacked my face!"
"Ow!" Lucian winced in pain. "You're hurting my wrist! Let go!" She dropped the yellow sponge that she was holding in her other hand to the ground. She shot her head up to Black, "You're gonna break my wrist!"
Of course Black didn't care in fact he gripped Lucian's wrist even tighter. "So what?" he said dangerously, he looks like he was about to kill her. "This is your punishment for hitting me."
Tears began to cloud Lucian's eyes but she will not cry not in front of this jerk, "..." Biting her lower lip she waited for Black to release her. Really this pain is nothing. Okay she was lying. She just doesn't want Black to think that she's weak. She has to be strong, or else she'll die in this world. She was frustrated with everything, and she was beginning to question why she was even here in Wonderland. Thinking all these at that moment Lucian did not even notice the tears roll down her cheeks as she continued to stare at Black.
"...damn it." Black whispered before letting go of Lucian's wrist. He really didn't meant to take it this far, to make Lucian cry is not something he wanted to do. The last thing Black needs to see is Lucian to cry in front of him. He also promised her parents that he won't make Lucian cry in the future but now that promise was now broken. "Don't cry in front of me, I hate it." Black said and he heavily sighed. "Crying won't get you anything." He turned around not wanting to see anymore of Lucian's crying face. If she was crying because she is happy then he would not mind looking at her for a very long time however not this kind of crying face especially if he was the one that cause it.
Lucian clutcheed her now shaking hand with her other hand, "….." she lowered her head down ashamed that Black saw her being weak. I hate this.
"Hurry up and clean the floor," Black said his tone somewhat cold, "And when you're done clean the cells that I assigned you to clean." Without looking back he walks away. Did he not really care about what he is saying to Lucian? Of course he would not care, he is Black after all. He has no reason to show his concern to the young lady because that is White's job; he is the good one out of the two of them. Or so at least that is what Black is thinking.
"!" Lucian could only look at Black as he walks away, really how could he. He almost broke her wrist and he still wants her to work? No, Lucian will not have this; she has endured all of his abusiveness towards her since she began living here but not this time. "That's it!" She shouted angrily and pulled out her right black and white shoe. "I have had enough!" Pulling her hand back she threw her shoe straight towards Black.
"!" The shoe hits the back of Black's right shoulder. The anger inside him just grew like oil being spilled in a fire as he turned his body around to Lucian. "You…." His red wine eye narrow dangerously as he gritted his teeth and his hands clenched into a fist. "You seriously threw your-".
"You jerk!" Lucian shouted as she wiped her tears. She looks back at Black once her sight was clear as a glass, "You're going too far on this! You're giving me too much work to do in your territory and you don't even care what you're doing to me! Can you at least stop and think before you say your words?! I'm not a slave Black so stop treating me like one!"
"You're the one that decided to live here remember. So why are you complaining?" Black frowned; he did not like Lucian getting mad like this at him. He feels like she is lecturing him, and he does not like being lectured by anyone.
"Because I had nowhere else to go and White forced me!" Lucian shouted back. "I thought that living with you and White might be okay but I was wrong. I regret living here. You don't appreciate the things I do for you and you even say bad things about my cooking when White says that they're delicious! It's like you don't even care at all, you're just keeping me here so you could have some entertainment!"
"…." Entertainment…? Well sure that was before and maybe it still is now a little but Black never thought about keeping Lucian here for that reason. Black cannot show his true feelings to her yet, it will only make her suspicious of him and White. For now it is fine like this, it does not matter to him if he has to lie to her. "So what are you trying to say?" He ask and crossed his arms over his chest, the angry within him now gone. "Huh? You want to be treated special, is that it?"
"No!"
"Then what?" Black took a step forward to Lucian, his eye fixed at her like looking at a prey ready to launch and make a kill. "I told you already, didn't I? That I won't treat you special just because you're a foreigner." He was standing so close to Lucian.
"I'm not asking for you to treat me special!"
"Shut up." Black voice was cold as ice, however, this did not made Lucian cower; she continued to stay on her feet. "I will treat you like a slave if I want to. You live here in my territory so you follow whatever I say got that, slave. You can always leave if you don't want to stay here." Though he does not want that to happen actually, lying to her sucks but he has no choice. He just really hopes that Lucian does not take what he just said seriously.
*SLAP*
Lucian's left hand stings from the slap that she just gave to Black. The sound of her slap on his face was so loud that it echoed through the jail. "Don't call me a slave." She said and could not contain her anger anymore.
"….." Black was unfazed from the slap. Slowly his eye moves back to Lucian, he said nothing as he turned his head back to her, "….."
*SLAP*
Another slap echoes through the jail however this time it was Lucian who was slapped hard by Black that her left cheek had a line of blood dripping down.
"!..." Lucian's mouth was slightly open from the shock; she looked back at Black, slowly raising her hand on her bleeding cheek. She felt her chest tighten inside as she took a step back. "….." Without saying a word she took off her other shoe, throws it to the floor, turns her body around and sprinted off down the hallway of the jail.
"….." Black watched Lucian slowly disappear from his sigh,t and when he could no longer see her he heavily sighed. "What the hell have I done?" To slap Lucian like that, he regrets it. He lowered his head down and his eye landed on the shoe that Lucian had just thrown on the floor.
"Yeah, what have you done?" A familiar voice said from the back.
Black turned his head over his shoulder to see White, leaning on the cold stone wall looking at him with a disappointed look. "She made me angry."
"Hm," White smiled, "But was slapping Lucian necessary?" He tilted his head to the side, the little tiny bells hanging on his hat jingled. "She was just trying to ask if you could appreciate the things that she has been doing for you and I. Clearly you know that, right?"
"I know." Black frowned.
"Then why did you continue the argument with Lucian?"
"I don't know okay!" Black shouted. He does not have time for this idle chit chat with his counterpart. He bends down and picked the shoe from the floor and did the same for the other shoe that was a few feet away from him and White.
"It's okay to be truthful to Lucian; you don't have to always lie. You're just hurting her and yourself as well." White walked towards Black and lightly patted him on the shoulder. "I'll go look for Lucian outside," he smiled before walking away, leaving his counterpart alone in the hallway of the jail.
~…X…~
Running and running was all that Lucian did until she ran out of breath. She has ended up in the Joker forest, and this was the forest that both Black and White had warned her about. Since this was her first time in the forest, she does not know how to get back. But then again she does not want to go back, seeing Black's face is not something she wants right now. "…." She looked around and all she can see are doors, and many more doors of different sizes and colors. She remembers what White told her before about the doors speaking to whoever is lost in the forest, tempting anyone to open the door, however, she hears none. She is lost but she hears no voice. Strange is it not?
"…I guess I'll just rest here for a bit." She said quietly as she made her way to one of the trees. Once she has sat down on the ground, she buries her face on her knees. "….I don't want to stay here anymore…..I want to go home…." Just then did Lucian realize something, "Right….I don't have a home to return to…." When her parents died she was put to an orphanage, she does not call that home, nor was her apartment close to the Academy that she attends to. She has lost her home long ago. Or did she?
Everything was quiet until the sound of the bushes moving was heard.
*Rustle* *Rustle* *Rustle*
"Huh?" Slowly Lucian raises her head up towards the bushes not too far from her. "…" She blinked and tilted her head to the side.
"Ah! I think I'm almost there!" A young man's voice cheerfully said and then his head pop out of the bushes. His short brown hair was covered in leaves. "Ah." When he's crimson eyes landed on Lucian, the smile on his face faded, "Eh?"
"…um, hi…" Lucian said.
"Wait a second this isn't the Clock Tower." The young man pouted as he pulled himself out of the bushes. "Darn, oh well." He shrugged his shoulders before dusting his clothes off.
"Uh, are you perhaps lost?"
"Huh?" The young man looks back at Lucian. "Oh, who are you miss? Are you a foreigner?" His cheerful smile made its way back to his face as he skipped his way over to Lucian. "What is a beautiful lady like you doing out here in the forest?"
Lucian stared at the young man in front of her, she feels that there is something more in that smile of his, and she knows that she has to be cautious with this man. She does not know why but she just had the feeling, "Yeah, I'm Lucian Caelum, I got lost while I was running." She replied her voice soft and calm. "And you are?"
"Ace! Knave of Hearts!" Ace elegantly bowed down. "You have a very beautiful name." He smiled kindly as he stared at Lucian straight in the eyes. "Your name means a 'person of light' right?"
"Yeah and thanks for saying that my name is beautiful."
"Hm," Ace softly chuckled under his breath before sitting down in front of Lucian. "So how did you get that cut on your face, Miss Lucian?" He smiled once more before reaching his index finger out to Lucian and poked her cheek.
"Ow." Lucian pulled her head back from the sudden touch, "I got this cut while I was running…." She has no reason to lie but then again she has no reason to tell Ace anything after all she just met him less than three minutes ago.
"Oh," Ace nodded his head. "Well we can't have that cut not treated right," and he began to search something inside his red coat, "Oh! Here it is!" Ace pulled out a small first aid kit, "Ta-da! It's a good thing that I bring this with me all the time even though I don't need it!" He feels so proud for bringing a tiny first aid kit that he cannot help but shove the small box right in front of Lucian's face.
"Um….that's cool." Lucian smiled a little from the sight of Ace smiling cheerfully like a little child.
"Okay, let's get that cut treated!" Ace winked at Lucian before opening the first aid kit and rummaging what was inside. "Hmm, let's see." He grabbed a piece of cotton ball, a tiny bottle of alcohol, and a band aid.
Ace began to gently wipe the blood off from Lucian's left cheek, "Does it hurt?"
Lucian shakes her head slightly, "No."
"Good." Ace smiled again as he unwraps the band aid from its wrapper, "Hey can I ask you a question?" he said without moving his crimson eyes away from the band aid he was holding in his hands.
"Sure."
"Were you crying before I got here?" Ace raises his eyes back to Lucian. "Were you?"
"What? No."
Suddenly Ace began to laugh, "Hahaha! You don't have to lie. Your eyes are red and puffy. It's obvious that you cried," saying this he carefully he places the band aid on Lucian's cheek, "There all good now."
He's pretty sharp, Lucian thought. "Okay I did cry and thanks."
"You're welcome so why'd you cry?"
"…..it's not something that big for you to know and besides you'll lose interest."
Ace stares at Lucian for quite a while before opening his mouth, "No, I don't think I'll lose interest. You can tell me."
"….okay." And so Lucian told what happened back the prison but of course she made sure not to tell everything, she left the part where Black slap her and she did tell Ace that she got the cut when she was running. "That's why I'm here."
"Sooo that explains why you aren't wearing any shoes, but oh well just don't mind what Mr. Joker told you. He's always like that." Ace said and he raised his head up towards the blue sky with a soft smile.
"You know both the Jokers?" Lucian asked.
Ace lowers his head back down and looks at Lucian, "Yep, I work for them sometimes."
"You do, huh."
"Miss Lucian." Ace said.
"Please just call me Lucian." Lucian said gazing at Ace.
"Okay then, Lucian," Ace smiled. "You say that you want to go back home but you can't, and you're running away as well just because Mr. Joker said all those mean things to you. If you're a strong person, you should endure it. A weak person would simply give up and cry." And those types of people are boring. "You don't know much about Mr. Joker yet so I suggest that you stay with him. You're only scraping the surface and if you were to stay with Mr. Joker, you have the chance of being alive longer here in Wonderland. Mr. Joker can protect you and they are the first one that you met here, right?" Ace tilted his head to the side.
"Yeah..." Lucian slightly nodded her head
"Then you should stay with them, but if you don't really want to you can always come with me to the Heart Castle. I mean there's no rules about a foreigner not allowed to move to other territories."
"I…..it's okay," Lucian said. "I think I'll stay here but thanks for the offer though."
"Hm," the smile on Ace's face grew; he looks happy, however, his eyes show something else. He narrowed his eyes, "That's good." This did not go unnoticed by Lucian.
"Oh, there you are, my dear." White appears before them, "I was worried about you."
Lucian looked at White walking over to her and Ace, "White," for some reason she was glad that he came.
White stopped right in between Ace and Lucian. "Oh, hello Ace." He kindly smiled at the Knight who was smiling back at him.
"Hi, Mr. Joker!"
"I thank you for treating my dear's cut." White slightly bowed his head down before turning his body to Lucian. "Come my dear, we're going back."
"Well, I guess it's time for me to go!" Ace got up and fixes his clothes, "Bye Lucian! I hope that we get to see each other again soon, and bye too, Mr. Joker!" He waved the two of them goodbyes as he made his way to the trees. When he was a few yards away from White and Lucian, his crimson eyes narrowed, his lips curled up into an evil smirk. Strong type like her is my favorite type of girl… it makes me want to break her in the future.
"Bye, Ace." Lucian said waving goodbye to the knight. What a strange guy.
"What were you two talking about?" White asked as he helps Lucian up her feet.
"Nothing much," Lucian replied.
"How's your wound?" White reaches his hand out and softly touches Lucian's cheek. "Does it still hurt?" He began to caress her cheeks with his thumb.
"Not really."
"I apologize for what Black did to you; he didn't mean to hurt you." White sadly smiled as he looks at Lucian.
"Did Black tell you to look for me?" Lucian asked looking down on the ground. Maybe I should just really lea-
"No," White said cutting Lucian off from her thought, "I came here on my own, my dear." He lowers his head down so he could take a better look at her. "Come now, smile," he softly smiled and lightly pinches Lucian's cheek. "You look better when you smile, Lucian."
Lucian shook her head side to side before pulling her body back away from White. "Sorry but I can't force myself to smile right now." After what she has just been through with Black it is definitely not possible for her to smile.
"Well then," White pulled his hand back to his side. "Shall we go back now or do you want to stay out here a little longer?"
"Let's go back I still need to finish my work…"
"Okay, come." White offered his right hand out to Lucian, gesturing her to take his hand.
"..." Lucian reaches her hand out and carefully grabs White's hand, "..."
"Oh," White's red wine eye slightly grew as he stared down at Lucian's wrist. "There's already a bruise forming," he sadly said as he lifted Lucian's hand up to his lips and softly kisses her bruised wrist. I'm going to have to talk to Black about this.
"!" That moment Lucian felt her heart skip a beat from the sudden kiss, "Uh…" knowing that her face was blushing, she looks away hoping that White would not notice her flushed red face.
White looks back at Lucian and smiles when he saw her blushing face. "You don't mind me asking you to piggy back on my back do you?"
Lucian looks back at White, "Huh? I can walk on my own."
"I can't allow that. You're not wearing any shoes and you'll hurt your feet."
"O-oh…." Lucian looks down on her feet causing her to blush even more, she was too occupied with her thoughts that she has forgotten that she was not wearing any shoes at all. Well this is embarrassing.
With that the two made their way back, Lucian said nothing as she was being carried on White's back, she was embarrassed that he had to carry her but then again it was White who insisted to carry her. I'm so stupid for throwing my shoes in the prison, she thought. "I'm sorry if I'm heavy, White."
"Aha," White softly laughed, his red orb looking straight ahead. "You're not heavy at all, my dear so you don't have to apologize."
~...X…~
White and Lucian return to the prison and the only thing that they saw was Lucian's pair of black and white shoes placed neatly on the floor next to the blood of pool, "It seems that Black left your shoes." White said as he places Lucian down on her feet.
"Thank you." Lucian said before walking over to her shoes. She picked her shoes up and placed her feet inside them. Better finish this, she eyed the blood of pool in front of her.
"Here, my dear." White said. Lucian turned her head back to see White holding up a mop in his hand. "Use this instead of the sponge."
"Thanks," Lucian gladly took the mop from White's hand.
"Hm," White nodded his head. "Do you need help with anything? I can stay if you want."
"Nah, it's okay," Lucian smiled as she shook her head slightly. "I don't want you to waste your time here I know you're busy with work as well."
White's lip slowly curls up into a warm, sweet smile, "Okay." He walked over to Lucian, and gently pat her head. "Don't force yourself to smile okay."
Lucian looked up at White, the fake smile that she forced on herself now gone, "...sorry," she slightly grip the mop in her hands. "I just thought that if I were to show you my smile you wouldn't have to worry about me once you leave."
"That's okay, you don't have to apologize." White tilted his head to the side. "If you need any help just call me, okay." He leaned down and kissed Lucian on the forehead before walking away.
"…." Lucian watched White disappear down the hall, her hand touching the place where White had just kissed her on her forehead. "White….your so kind…." She softly whispered before slowly turning her body back to the pool of blood behind her.
White decided to look for Black, and he found him in one of the hallway of the jail, staring at an empty jail cell. "What are you doing standing there, Black?" He asked.
"…." Black maneuvered his eye to the side towards White. "You found her?" He asked ignoring Whites question.
"Yes, she was with Ace when I found her in the forest," White replied. "Lucian went back to cleaning the mess you made."
"That idiot knight was in the forest again, sheesh why does he always get lost?" Black annoyingly said and crossing his arms on his chest. "Somebody needs to put a leash on that guy."
"Are you going to talk to Lucian?"
"…."
"By the way you might want to heal Lucian's wrist, there's already a bruise on her skin."
"Why didn't you do it then?" Black looked away, "And what if I don't want to?"
"I'm not the one that hurt Lucian's wrist," a small smile formed on White's face, "Why don't you just go, okay."
Black heavily sighed, "Fine," he started to walk away but soon turned his head back. "Do you have any candy?"
"Candy?" White blinked, confused and surprised at the same that Black is asking him for some candies. "I do. Do you want to eat some?"
"No, just give me some." Black put his right hand out to White, "Come on, hurry up."
"Okay." White walked over to Black, places his hands inside his pockets and grabs a handful of candies. "Here." He handed the candies to Black.
"Hm," Black scanned the candies in his hands. "This should be enough." Shoving the candies inside his pockets he made his way to where Lucian is.
~…X…~
Black stop a few feet away from Lucian, and seeing that she was almost with the cleaning he decided to wait.
When Lucian finished mopping the floor she let out a sigh, "There, I'm done." She wiped the sweat off from her forehead. Now I just need to clean the cells that Black assigned me.
"Hey." Black said.
"…." Slowly Lucian turns her head over her shoulder, "….I'm done cleaning the floor." She said quietly. "Excuse me." Lowering her head down, she walked over to Black and passed him.
*Grab*
Black had suddenly grabbed Lucian's hand and pulled her back to him, "Don't try to walk away from me when I'm talking to you." He did not sound angry instead he was calm which was unusual since Black usually cusses in his sentence.
"….." Lucian could feel Black's warmth on her back, "I'm not going to complain to you anymore. You were right and I was wrong. I shouldn't have opened my mouth. It was rude of me."
"Don't be an idiot," Black said and he lets go of her hand. "You weren't wrong. I'm only gonna say this once so you better listen."
Lucian finally decided to turn her body around so she could face Black. "…." She waited for Black to speak again.
"I'm…..s…..sorry." Black said quietly that Lucian could barely make out what he had just said.
"What?"
"I told you that I'm not won't repeat myself!" Black shouted, embarrassed that he had to apologize. "Sheesh why won't you listen?!"
"I did but you were mumbling." Lucian replied. "I couldn't hear what you were saying."
"Damn it! I hate repeating myself! Fine I'll say it again but this is the last time you got that!"
"Okay." Lucian nodded her head, determined to listen to Black as best as she can.
Black took a deep breath. "I'm sorry, okay." He said in between his teeth. "I never meant to slap you. My emotion got the best of me. You weren't wrong either about me treating you like a slave. I'm sorry."
"…." Lucian could only stare at Black; she does not know whether she should be happy or feel something else. She is surprised that Black would apologize to her.
"And here," Black pulled out a lollipop from his pocket and handed it to Lucian. "Eat this."
"Huh?" Lucian looks confused, but she took the lollipop anyway. "Thanks but why give me a lollipop?"
"It's supposed to make you happy." Black said his face tinted red. "Isn't that what every girl is like? You give them something sweet and they smile at you."
"Not really but thanks for the lollipop." Lucian said before placing the lollipop in her right side pocket of her black jeans. "Now if you'll excuse me I need to finish my job."
"I wasn't done talking to you." Black grabbed Lucian by the hand again. "You don't have to clean any of the cells that I assigned you to clean. I already made my workers clean them for you."
"Oh, thanks then," Lucian said looking back at Black. What am I going to do now then?
"…." Black stared at Lucian for a few seconds before lifting her hand up, "Clown was right." He said while staring at the bruised wrist. "Hm." What Black did next, shocked Lucian that she almost smacked his face again, but if it were not from his quick reflex, Black would have gotten a black eye.
"W-what are you doing?" Flustered Lucian tried to pull her hand away from Black's grip. "Why did you just kissed my wrist?!"
"I'm trying to heal your wrist," Black replied, unfazed. "You almost smack my face again. Try not to move too much, okay." He then placed his other hand on top of Lucian's wrist and his hand glows into a bright dark pink color. Once Black pulled his hand away the bruise on Lucian's wrist was gone.
"Ah." Lucian blinks as she stares at her wrist. "How did you do that?" She asked.
"Healing ability or whatever you wanna call it." Black replied as his eye moves up towards her cheek. "Come here a little closer will ya."
"Okay." Lucian took another step closer to Black. "Ow!" Black suddenly ripped the band aid off her cheek. "Hey!" she glared at him as she rubs her cheek only to feel her blood on her finger. "You could have said something first before ripping the band aid."
"I might as well heal your cheek too." Black said and grabbing Lucian's hand he placed his other hand on her cheek and the same thing happen, his hand glowed, and when he pulled his hand back the cut on Lucian's face was gone as if it was never there. "There."
"T-thanks..." Lucian said.
"Yeah, whatever," Black said. "I only did this because I don't want you to hate me. Now come with me." He pulled Lucian by his side as they walked down the hallway.
"Where?" Lucian asked not bothered by Black holding her hand.
"To the kitchen, I'm hungry." Black said looking at Lucian from the corner of his eye. "You're gonna make me some food and besides it's almost lunch time."
Lucian sighed, I can't believe this guy, she thought. "Okay, what do you want to eat?" she looked at Black.
"Anything is fine." Black said as he pulled out another piece of candy inside his pocket. "Here." This time it was a small piece of chocolate shape in a ball. Unwrapping the piece of chocolate from its wrapper he quickly shoves the chocolate inside Lucian's mouth before she could even say a word.
"Hm…." Lucian blinked several times as she chewed the chocolate, "Why do you keep giving me sweets?"
To make you happy. "I asked White to give me some candies," Black replied. "Don't complain, and be glad that I'm giving you something."
"But I didn't ask you to give me something."
"Oh just shut up and continue eating your chocolate will ya." Black pinched Lucian's cheek.
"Ow."Lucian pouted and rubbed her cheek, "….you're so mean, but thanks for the chocolate." She said before looking straight ahead, her face tinted red.
"Just ask me if you want another candy and I'll give you one," Black said and he tightened his hold on Lucian, thinking that if he were to let her go, she would run but of course Lucian would not do that to him. To prove it to him she moved closer to his side as they walk and even links her fingers in between his.
