Happiness is temporary...
(Cliffer Point of view)
Gin is still constantly softly crying is Cliffer and Alex dorm. Alex was choosing outifte to wear as if the sound of Gin crying didn't bothered him but it did bother Cliffer.
"I'm going to do something about this" Cliffer stood up from the ground but was stopped by Alex.
"Don't rush things yet Cliffer. He still needs time. For now just help me choose an outfit." Alex spoke casually as Cliffer and reluctantly helped.
Cliffer helped Alex chooses his outfit out. Some were too revealing, some were too out of place. Until they found a good fit.
The school uniform.
"Ehhh? Again." Alex Muttered a curse. "Not happening.
Cliffer Sighed and just opened his closet and Alex's fingers brushed the fabric—a thief stealing warmth. When he pulled it on, Cliffer's scent clung to him like a second skin.
It was too big for Alex but he didn't care and walked away. Once Cliffer faced his back to look at Alex he was gone.
He quickly chased after Alex but couldn't find him anywhere. As he breathe heavily his heart starts racing. And he memories when he first met Alex.
Ocean Aqua city. A place in deep underwater it was beautiful. Anyone who lives there has a certain blessing a generational blessings where this blessing is automatically passed down generation's This generational blessing is called Kins of the Sea. As long as one has this blessing they can breath under water.
Making the Ocean Aqua city a personal place for its locals and their only home.
But of course. There are rankings to the blessing of Aqua the brighter the light the higher the rank and Cliffer was black. Pitch black.
He stayed at the lowest of rankings since he was a child could be considered trash the way people treated him.
Everyday was almost filled with violence. Fighting other children his parents neglecting him leaving him on the streets. Back then he had no name.
That all stopped at the age of 10 he was walking through the streets. Noticing a parade happening.
He didn't felt like going but his instinct as a child took over and walked him there. He glanced around at the parade and there he was Alex the Prince.
It was his 10 birthday and the city was celebrating his birthday. All of this parade was because His light was the brightest through history. Could even compete with Aqua's light.
Cliffer scoffed and walked away but was caught in the parade March with all the civilians following into the castle.
As Cliffer was forced to enter the castle he quickly find a way to escape. Throughout the day each escape he found was blocked until he was up and up in the castle.
He entered the first door he saw completely tired. But he didn't noticed that he had entered Alex's room.
"Ah... My fault." Cliffer finally realized. "I didn't mean to... Enter ya room announced."
If Alex screamed at this moment Cliffer could be executed at this moment. But Cliffer didn't try to exit despite very instinct of his to run.
Because he pitied. Alex the Prince was sitting on his bed glancing up at the sky above the water's almost crying.
"If only someone saw me, not the light." Alex spoke softly.
"Then I will notice you." Cliffer responded. "As many times as you want. As long as you want."
"What's your name?" Alex spoke softly as he extended his hand to Cliffer not to shake but to hold.
"Call me Cliffer," he said, the name tasting strange—like a language only they two spoke. as he held his hand tightly but not too tight. Glancing up to the night sky above the water.
He snapped out of the memory hearing Alex voice. He opened his eyes to see Him wearing his shirt.
"Finally come on let's go and eat dinner." Alex Voice out to Cliffer with a smug as he pulls him away.
"The moon is beautiful..." Cliffer responded softly.
"If the moon is beautiful then I'm perfect." Alex smug as they went to dinner.
