My Dear Duke(BL)
Chapter 157: The Future

Chapter 157: The Future

Felix and Asher fell asleep after some more little talk, then woke up very late the next day.

Felix was quite troubled that he couldn’t get up like he always did. He believed this had something to do with what happened. But...at least it is better than not waking up, isn’t it?

Felix was the first to wake up actually. It kind of assured him that he would be fine as long as he tried to get up at the same time he did before. He was doing just fine since Asher was still asleep. If Asher was to wake up before him, then, it would be quite disappointing to know.

So...

After waking up, Felix didn’t get off the bed or got up. He just laid there, staring at sleeping Asher who was very close to him.

If their clothes didn’t exist, Felix wondered if their skins would mend together. They were that close. Or...Asher was that close.

’Asher always finds a way to snuggle in.’

Felix gently caressed the back of the head of Asher, then smiling as he saw Asher trying to snuggle closer.

"Asher..."

Felix called and Asher mumbled as he then kissed Felix’s chest.

"Good morning."

Asher said, smiling, yet his eyes closed as he was sleepy.

"Good morning. Are you awake?"

Felix asked.

"Yeah."

"Then, move a little."

"Where?"

"To the other side."

"Why?"

"I want to get up."

"...No. Just stay here."

"...Why? I have to go to work."

Felix said and Asher immediately got up, then suddenly jumped at him.

"You are not going anywhere today. Today we will meet Sir Lucas, apologise for the stress and your stubbornness, then rest and then, you can work tomorrow. Got it?"

Asher asked, seemingly fully awake now.

"...Okay."

Felix nodded and agreed but still Asher stayed on top of him. After some staring at each other, Asher placed his head on Felix’s chest, closing his eyes.

"Duke...I want to sleep again."

"...Then...sleep."

"Okay."

Asher said and Felix confusingly stared at Asher who now didn’t move and was completely motionless.

’He didn’t fall asleep this fast, did he?"

Felix couldn’t help but laugh at Asher.

’Sigh...It feels so lively here.’

Felix also closed his eyes but failed to fall asleep like Asher did. So gradually, he held Asher, then placed him on the bed. After that, Felix slowly got up, stepping out of the bed.

"Haa...Past days...I stayed in bed too much."

Felix thought as he stared at the bed and stretched out.

Those days, he literally did nothing. He just laid on the bed, thinking. But now, he can’t remember what he thought about either.

He wasted everyone’s time including his own.

’Ha...So useless.’

Felix walked to the window and looked outside where he had not looked out of for days. He now really wants to step out of the room. But...he didn’t want to go against Asher’s wishes either. He would go outside, with Asher, when he is awake.

"I will have to talk to Anne too."

Even the thought of explaining and answering her made him feel dizzy. She would definitely have a lot of questions for him, right?

Felix suddenly felt not so good again and decided he would stay in bed for some more time. But just as he sat and was about to lay down, a pair of hands hugged his waist.

"You are going to sleep again?"

Asher asked as he got up and leaned on the duke’s back. Felix chuckled and went on to say how he was just going to lay down.

"Duke..."

"Mmm?"

"Felix."

"...Mmm?"

Asher observed as the duke’s expression shifted from normal to suddenly shocked and embarrassed. Haa...the faces he makes never fails to make Asher excited.

"Felix?"

"...Mm?"

"Duke?"

"Mm?"

"Felix?"

"...Just say it Asher. You’re teasing me again, aren’t you?"

Felix complained and Asher hugged him, kissing him on the cheeks.

"Sigh...You are looking good in the morning and I want to tease you. You can’t blame me."

Asher pouted and said, making Felix also sigh and hold Asher’s arms that were around his neck.

"Duke?"

"Mm?"

"Felix?"

"...not again."

"Felix, I love you."

Asher said, now sitting next to the duke, looking at him intently.

"I love you too."

Felix said, now really really shy. Asher couldn’t help but stare more which seemed to have made the duke even more embarrassed.

"Stop staring."

"I can’t."

"...You can. You just don’t want to."

Felix mumbled.

"Hehe...If you want me to stop staring, you need to stop looking this good."

Asher said and Felix, seemingly flustered once again, looked away.

"What do you mean?"

"You really want to hear it?"

"What?"

"You look handsome."

"...Oh."

Felix said again and Asher couldn’t help but laugh as he finally stopped staring at him.

"Sigh...I want to stare at you forever so you won’t ever be out of my sight."

Asher said, looking serious and his tone filled with worry.

"I...said sorry. And, I promised to be careful."

"But...honestly I don’t trust you. You look like you can fly away from me anytime you want."

Aaher said, the atmosphere somewhat tense as this...was a very serious talk happening.

"...So, what can I do to convince you it won’t happen again or I won’t fly away from you?"

"You don’t have to convince me. You will see how I’m going to stop if...you create such a situation again."

Asher said, or...threatened.

"You are threatening me?"

"Yeah. Remember this."

"...Understood."

Felix nodded and then Asher, seemingly suddenly joyful again, kissed Felix, then walked to the bathroom.

Felix watched as his back disappeared into the room, then looked down.

’Asher...is quite scary...’

Felix thought and looked at the bed they slept together, the mattress clumped.

’But who cares? He...is the one I love.’

Felix threw himself back onto the bed and closed his eyes as he smiled as the image of Asher talking just now popped in his mind.

’I just love him so much, so I also want him to stick with me...but I wouldn’t say that to him. Because no one will ever know what will happen in the future..."
