Visits

(Leon's P.O.V)

Today, I'm visiting my father. We haven't really seen each other in a while. I told Yao ge that I was going to Father's house, and headed there.
I knocked on his door. This house hasn't changed a bit since I was raised here. Even Alfred, my step brother said so too. I checked my phone, seeing Emil's response to the dress get-together.
The British man opened the door, revealing his messy blonde hair.
"Why hello there, Leon. Come on in."

"Hello, father. I just wanted to come and visit you."

"Would you like some tea?"

"No thanks, father."

I sat in the tea table while Arthur prepared some tea. It smelled like
Orange Pekoe this time.

"How's life so far?" I asked, trying to start a conversation.

"Life's okay. A bit busy but, its okay. How about you?"

"It's great so far."

Arthur sat down with the tea cup in his hand. He took a sip, and we remained silent. Suddenly, someone opened the door, it was Alfred.
"Yo, Arthur! Let's go to MacDonald's together! You said that you'd go!"

Arthur cringed a bit before sighing.
"Would you like to join me there?"

"It's okay, I should take my leave now." I replied heading out the door.
I thought I should pay Emil and his family a small visit. I really needed to get a hobby in life. Other then shopping and texting people online.
I had the key to Emil's house, so I just went in.
"Oh, hi Leon! Are you looking for Emil?" Tino asked.
"Yeah, its nice to see you again, Tino. How have you been doing?"

"I've been doing great! Emil's in the basement with his brother."

I nodded, and headed downstairs to the basement. The basement was very eerie, with the skulls, and containers of strange substances.
"H-Hello?" I asked, looking around a bit.
This place reminded me of father's 'magic room', with all the herbs and cauldron.
I saw another door, and entered it.
Emil was on the bed, with his eyes closed. Probably taking a small nap.
Lukas was reading a book. His eyebrows were furrowed down, like he was concentrating on it.
"Hello." I said once more.
This time, the Norwegian boy looked up at me.
"Hello. Emil's just taking a nap right now."
"Okay."
Something seemed off though.
"How long has he been sleeping?"

"Since this morning."

I shrugged, and attempted to wake Emil up. I poked his hand.
"I've already tried all of that, it won't work. He's a... Heavy sleeper."

"Okay. Is there a reason that he's sleeping? I sense that something is off."

"Yeah, he just didn't get enough sleep last night, that's all. Don't worry about it."

"If you say so."

I looked at Emil's sleeping figure.
He looked so calm, as always. A faint, ghostly smile was on his face. I wonder what he is dreaming about that makes him so happy. I stroked Emil's hair, and decided to get going.
"Bye, Lukas. I should go now."
Lukas didn't respond. Probably concentrated on that book.
