Goodbye my dear King

A mistake or the best decision of my life

Hellooooo💕 Yes I'm back so you don't have to wait so long for another chapter. Hopefully when this comes out it's going to be right before my exams. Like today I had so much stress weighing on me so it's currently midnight when I'm writing the intro since I slept a lot when I usually write. But luckily I feel a bit better now. Still under the weather but better. What I'm trying to say is I'm kind of putting all of my books on hiatus for the fact I will be too busy or tired to write. I'll still try my best but expect a lot less updates for the next few weeks. Thanks for understanding now let's get back to this chapter☺️😘💕

Alfred's POV

Instead I heard a scream and the sickening sound of a sword being pulled out..

I opened my eyes and almost immediately let out my own scream...

Instead of me getting stabbed it was Arthur, who used his body as a shield to save my life. I was surprised of course but soon that surprise turned into sadness as I started crying. I held Arthur close to me trying to stop the bleeding but it wasn't working. "Alfred... Don't worry everything will be alright..." He reassured in a soft but pain filled whisper. He smiled up at me and held my hand softly. The other hand smoothed and cupped my cheeks. I continued to cry as I just try to put pressure on the wound.

"No everything won't be okay if you're not here," I sobbed out holding him closer to me. He looked up at me with glazed over tired eyes as I just peppered his face in soft kisses trying to keep him awake and aware of everything. "Hey shh... I promised you I won't leave you alone here. I'll always be...here," he pressed his hand to my chest where my heart was beating. He smiled a bit pressing his head to it so he can hear my heart beat. I continued to cry and hold onto Arthur not knowing what to do. If I pick him up and carry him to the medical department I might increase the blood loss. But now we're just waiting for death here. I continued to cry and talk to Arthur to keep him awake.

"I love you...Alfred..." He smiled and kept repeating my name seemingly liking the sound of it. I was just at this point crying and holding him close. "I love you too Arthur. I love you so much, please don't leave me," I begged him trying everything I can to make him stay. He smiled at me cupping my cheeks again. "Kiss?" He asks not being able to pull me into a kiss or fully bring himself up to kiss me. I smile and softly kiss his forehead before kissing him fully on the lips. He kissed back almost immediately and played with my hair. But suddenly during the kiss Arthur just...

Went motionless... He wasn't kissing me back anymore, his hand that was once playing with my hair was now just resting on my hand on the wound, his whole body weight was now weighing on me making me need to redo my hold on him. I pull back and realize Arthur is just completely motionless. "No no no no please no please no please no no no no! Don't do this to me please!" I screamed checking for breathing and for pulse only to find nothing. Arthur is just gone. I cry even more and just hug him close screaming to no one in particular before just silently sobbing and talking to Arthur almost like he was still here...

Soon Arthur was forcibly taken from me so they can get him ready for an official sending off. Yao looked at Arthur then at me. "Alfred.... for once... I don't know how to tell you things are going to be alright," Yao mumbles sitting next to me and holding me close like he always did when I was a child. I just held onto him like my life depended on it and cried more and more. I didn't stop crying for days. I just locked myself in my room and never came out. Yao left the food at the door and sometimes I'll take it and eat it but it's very rare that I did such a thing

I only let one person in and that was Ivan. We usually fight a lot yes but he is the most sensible. Yao is still torn about Arthur's death because it was his queen and friend too. Ivan is also upset about his death but he keeps his emotions under control better than Yao or I can. He lets me talk through everything that I feel and just holds me when I need it or just smooth my back to calm me down. That ended up being my breaking point. I went from sobbing all day to just being emotionless. I promised I will still be a good king and do my duties as such
