wakes up, confused. "Wha... wha?" he looks around, confused. The familiar scent of pasta... "Feli?"

nods and cuddles close to him. "Yeah, it's me," he whispers back. "I'm s-scared!!"

sings praises silently, carefully holding him. o///o "Scared of what?" he whispers back.

buries his face in Ludwig's neck. "Of ghosts! I was out late, and didn't notice the time, and Alfred and I had to get back, and we were_

scared of the ghosts that were gunna get us, and Luddy, I was so scared!!" ;___;

pats the back of his head, hoping to calm him down. "We're in a castle with portraits that talk. The ghosts are nice."

shakes his head. "Not all of them! Haven't you heard of the Bloody Baron? Or Peeves? They seem scary!"

pats his head again. "I... I'll protect you!"

relieved to hear that. "T-thank you Luddy.. That's why I came to you, I hoped you would!"

smiles to himself, secretly giddy. He hoped Gilbert was still asleep across the room.

knew he should be quiet, but he couldn't help himself.

shifts a bit in the bed, wondering what he should do now. He didn't know if this was the right moment to...

lifts his head to look at Luddy. "C-can I sleep with you t-tonight? I'm scared to go to my bed.."

nods (a bit too quickly). "O-Of course!"

doesn't realize that it was "too quick" as he sigh relieved. "T-thank you.." He pulls away from Luddy to pull the covers back to climb_

under the blankets with him.

sends up his prayers to whoever made this happen and scoots over a little. "I-i only have one pillow."

doesn't mind. "If you want we could s-share. Or I could use your chest..?"

nearly kisses him right there, but resists. "E-Either is fine," he whispers.

for now he just snuggles up to Ludwig, his head rest close to Ludwig's on his pillow.

stares at him, quickly squeezing his eyes shut and holding his breath.

opens his eyes when he notices that Luddy's not breathing anymore. He pokes his stomach. "Luddy, what's the matter? Do you not really want_

me here??" He'd leave if that's the case! Though he really didn't want to..

breathes out quickly, covering his mouth. He didn't know if he had bad breath or not. >A<

doesn't smell anything bad. "Luddy, you're acting weird. Should I go?" He felt as he should.. He starts getting up to run to his bed.

grabs his arm. "Don't!" he says a bit too loud. "I mean, don't, you're fine," he whispers.

looks at him then slowly nods, he lies down just as slowly. "O-okay.. If you s-say so.."
