The small kiss to his forehead was needed. Charles didn't need to say they both needed time. Caden knew both of them would need to work a little harder to close the wounds that had been open, but he didn't blame Alan or Charles for what was happening. It was just a massive miss understanding and it was up to Caden to make Alan see. But how?<br/><br/>He let go of Charles and wondered back over to the door looking like someone had popped a balloon. His straight posture had sagged like a wintered flower and his feet were heavy from the loss of energy and emotion he felt. But he was glad Charles seemed happy with his request for the morning and gave him a weak smile before heading into his own room to tidy the place.<br/><br/>The toys used went into the bathroom sink to be washed, the collar, lead were hung back on their hooks and the clothes he'd wore were popped into the basket for washing. Tissues were placed into the bin and he wiped down the surfaces around the bedside incase any liquids managed to squirt or magically appear on the woodwork. The process took around an hour before he was happy with his cleaning job and finally flopped on the bed for the night. He hadn't even put the covers over his body, but when he woke they were pulled up to his neck and snug around his frame like a cocoon. He always found comfort in things that hugged his frame.<br/><br/>Morning came and his alarm hadn't sounded, but during his sleep he could feel a pair of eyes on him. Charles? What time was it? and why wasn't his giant waking him up? He let out a quiet whimper and shifting into a seated position with his eyes still closed so he could rub the sleepiness away with his fingers.<br/><br/>"You're not normally creepy... What time is it?" he asked setting his hands down and looking at Alan... Alan! Shit. His normal sleepy tone turned into a whisper and his eyes stared at Alan in shock. "What are you doing? Charles will be waking me up any second. You can't come in here this early" he said shifting from the covers and tying the robe tightly around his frame again. "Breakfast is served in the dinning room. Go eat and We can all talk later okay. Things are still tense and I need to sort a few things out"<br/><br/>He didn't want Charles to see himself and Alan together after the event last night. His giant wasn't stupid and Charles was still loyal to him. If Alan wanted to have another round right now wasn't the time. Surly the lawyer knew his actions could have bad consequences. Right? He couldn't even look at Alan right now. The guy just had an air about him that seemed to shook Caden in. Like a child walking into a candy store for the first time. He didn't know what to do. He felt like he needed both Charles and Alan, but that would never happen...
