[SC] Ten Years Ahead [Genesis + Clovis]

Even if the morrow is barren of promises
Nothing shall forestall my return
To become the dew that quenches the land
To spare the sands, the seas, the skies
I offer thee this silent sacrifice


It had been about a year or so since Genesis disappeared with Vergil. Genesis couldn't tell. He had stopped watching the time since his Meister had gone away from him. With a mission ending in failure, he couldn't bring himself to return to Shibusen, seeing that it was a losing battle.

Yet, he did see Vergil while he roamed. And it was then he decided that it was time to see what he could do in the war once more.

He thought about who to see first there on the other side. He didn't want to see Date again just yet as it wasn't sure if he was really going to contribute to the battle on Shibusen's side once more. Near, to him, was a little more like a business partner than a trusted friend most of the time. Which... perhaps left only one person.

Clovis.

"I don't know why you're surprised." Surely, surely, other people had told you these things. Still, he could not help but copy the same tenderness -- lightly pressing soft kisses against his cheek and lips. Stopping only to smile happily to himself. His hand covering his mouth to hide it just barely with the tips of his fingers.

"Still, I'm happy to be the first to say it. I'm happy to be the first person to love you like this." He leaned forward a little to look at him, observe him a little more. I don't even want to forget. "In all honesty, I feel like I am on my honeymoon. The sort of feelings I think I would have at that time. I wonder if it is selfish of me to be this happy?"

"I wouldn't mind feeding you, actually." Of course, he could not keep the surprise from his face at the request. It was a problem -- how he could not keep his hands away from Genesis. He covered his mouth to hide both smile and laugh. "Though, I wonder if I should feel just a little bit bad for being such a distraction to you."

His hands came to rest on either side of his own face, allowing for an expression of mock sorrow. "While feeding you is fine, I wonder how I will be able to carry on the day after this if I cannot have you holding me. I don't suppose that it will go very well for me, or you."

Clovis did suddenly become shy once more, after the kiss. He did reach out to grab the tray which he had brought before he forgot. It was interesting to go about the motions to feed Genesis. Reminding him briefly of when Bartley would do so when he was a child and too sick to eat on his own.

"And at night." He did ask, almost hesitantly, as he offered the spoonful of soup to Genesis. "Will this now be your room, too?"

With every spoonful offered, he felt the desire to wrap his arms around Genesis. It was followed shortly by silly little thoughts came into his head of rings, and all the other little things that would tie them closer together. An even quieter wish to climb on him to hold him as close as he could. The simple idea that Genesis would be willing to live and stay with him -- that warm feeling, the safety and love that he would be able to feel always.

"Thank you." Clovis was surprised that he said as much aloud and elaborated. "Thank you for loving me back. I know that it seems silly to thank you for such, but I really do not know what to do with the feelings that I have." A brief pause. "At least until I am done."

"Feeding you and allowing you to rest a bit." Clovis turned just a little more red, as he did not wish to explain himself that much further. He did not want to be seen as such a lustful creature, and would have covered his face to hide his shame, had not he still had both hands occupied.

"Saying it aloud." It seemed more than a little troublesome to do so. His head lifted a little as he realized what it was that he could say. "Yes, I do have something in mind, and I would be willing to show you such. Later."

Ah, being able to say such things already, he was surprised. Had he been repressed for that long? All those little thoughts and things that would strangle him for even hitting impropriety, they were silenced and allowed him the chance to breathe a little easier.

Of course, one issue was bothering Clovis. Even as he continued to feed Genesis, he allowed his gaze to slip off. Mixing with thoughts of how he could carry out the desires and feelings that were welling up inside him, as well as a concern that was quietly growing. Chewing on his bottom lip, he finally decided to ask.

"Are you really happy with me?" How funny. For someone like him who had so much confidence. "That is ... I won't be able to carry on your bloodline." His words stumbled over one another, as he lowered his gaze now, embarrassed to having brought something of the sort up. Something, he should have brought up much sooner, really.

Clovis nodded once at the question before setting aside the empty bowl. Folding his hands on his lap, he wondered about where all these questions were coming from. Where all his insecurity and concern. Was this also something that he had repressed so that he would not ever have to be afraid of becoming close to someone?

His head lifted a little, surprised at that comment. "Cursed?" Nothing about you could be cursed.

"A monster?" Clovis actually felt a little spark of anger at that. His head gave a violent shake. "I won't believe something like that, Genesis. You aren't a monster."

"No, I suppose that I was not." Still, he did raise his hand to settle it over the one against his face.

"I have seventeen brothers and sisters." While they were not present, it did not matter. He knew that they would carry on where they were, because they were strong. Because, he could not see the Imperial Family falling any time soon. "The royal bloodline will be carried out regardless.

Furthermore, I had already said that I have given up my title and position, hadn't I?" His grip tightened just a little. "So I can only be yours."

There was little to no resistance before he rested comfortably against Genesis once more. He let out a content sigh, wrapping his arms around him to cling onto the other once more. "You keep saying that you are blessed, but I'm the one that feels that way."

He did pull back to cover his face, then, embarrassed. "Oh, I hadn't been thinking. I can go and get something more for you." A pause, but he was able to keep himself staring at Genesis this time instead of looking away as before. "It's the same for me. I don't want you to stop touching me."

Clovis tilted his neck up in order to give Genesis better access should he wish to continue. His tone of voice became just a little dreamier. "That is ... that was what I was hoping for when I mentioned later." A pause, realizing that he had said just a little too much. "I had said that I wanted to show you as much, but I suppose that telling you is good, too."

"Bur first..." His arms had once more found their way around Genesis's neck, resting his head against the other's as his neck was adored. It took him a few seconds to regain his senses before he lightly pushed himself away. Focus, focus. "First, I need to bring you food. What would you like? I'll get it all this time.

"Ah." Once more his hands came to cover his face in embarrassment. This sounded like something that Bartley would say to him, trying too hard to please. It was the same sort of feeling though, wanting very much to please and ensure Genesis's happiness.
