"Open the door!" Theseus heard Allias'' familiar voice as he screamed behind the locked door of their bedroom.

    Just a few hours ago a servant had run to him in utter shock, unaware of what he should do and informed him that Allias was roaming around the castle, drunk screaming about where the general was. At first he was shocked too, he couldn''t hide that. He gave an order for the floor Allias was to be cleared out of to prevent further humiliation and began looking for him.

    You see, Theseus'' nature was the true embodiment of mischief, something that the last few years he had had to suppress since he was a king. Things though had changed and he realized that in between his brooding, depressive episodes he could have some fun once in a while.

    So he spotted the drunk elf, walking like he would fall at any moment, his face a very vibrant red color as he looked for him and stood right in front of him just a few meters away. Allias blinked a few times, trying to focus his vision and once he realized who he was facing he pointed at him with an agape lip.

    "You!" he shouted and tried to run towards him. The general was standing there with a vicious grin his hands resting behind his back as he observed the dizzy king trying to reach him. Just when he was a mere leap away from him Theseus would wave at him and then disappear into black smoke, leaving the drunk Allias dumbfounded and then annoyed.

    He kept repeating the same silly game again and again and Allias would not stop looking for him. He even got to hear a few swears, or more like mumbled words. He could recognize the word fuck you and when I get you I will kill you though. It was unexpectedly entertaining but he knew that at some point he would need to stop his game. So the last time he simply ran inside their room and in a hurry he locked the door. Allias followed him and once he realized that he hadn''t been granted the access he so much wanted he started banging at the door and commanding Theseus to let him in. It was quite the spectacle.

    "Theseus…do you know who I am?"

    "I''m sorry I do not know you please leave my room" Theseus joked and he could almost see Allias fuming behind that door.

    "What do you mean you don''t know me you, dickhead. Open the door. This is my room too!"

    "No I am sorry you must be mistaken. If you don''t leave I will alarm the guards that a lunatic has been after me." Theseus said and the smirk on his face grew bigger and bigger. He didn''t really want to admit it but this was also a very mild revenge for what he had done to him. He wouldn''t let it go so easily even though he wanted the confrontation to be over he did need to find some kind of justice. He didn''t offer a helping hand just to anyone and for certain he didn''t care about many people.

    "Fine then" Allias said. "Fuck you!" He shouted and then for a while everything turned quiet. Had he left? Theseus wondered when he suddenly felt someone pushing him on the door. Allias had grabbed his right arm bringing it behind his back and he had shoved his face on the cold wood. Theseus chuckled.

    "I see you figured out the teleporting thing. Teaching you that now seems a really, really bad idea."

    "What are you doing?" Allias asked him and he threw him messily on the bed. He was still very strong even if his powers weren''t fully back. "Do you want to see me angry?" he asked him but the way he was trying to walk straight and how his eyes were half closed and red from the liquor made this scene funny the least. Theseus didn''t answer he just tried not to laugh by biting his bottom lip. "You sent Clelia to tell me how ungrateful I was and when I look around for you to apologize you…" he said and pointed at him. "Avoid me. What is this?"

    "I just don''t want to see you. Or talk to you. That''s all" Theseus said faking a serious expression.

    Allias'' eyes widened and he sat on his lap. He grabbed him from his collar and raised him up, bringing their faces closer. His breath smelled of wine, his hair was messed up and his eyes had a haziness that made him look incredibly irresistible. Theseus had to avert his eyes, so he wouldn''t give in to the temptation of his beauty.

    "Aren''t you supposed to love me?" Allias asked him with a furious expression. "You should want to see me all the time. Or is it that I am gone for a few years and now that you don''t need me. Is that it? Is it?"

    "I am not talking to you" Theseus said and turned his face. "leave me alone"

    "Why?" Allias asked his anger slowly subsiding and tried to kiss him but Theseus pushed him away. He freed himself from his grip being equally strong and maybe even stronger physically and most importantly sober and Allias looked at him astonished. "You don''t want me to kiss you?" he asked him and pouted.

    As it seemed Theseus'' constant rejections had made his anger subside and now he felt threatened. He tried to move closer to him on the bed but Theseus extended his hand and made a stop signal. The drunk king stopped immediately and looked at his thighs, depressed.

    "Don''t come closer."

    "Why?" Allias asked his voice nothing more than a whisper.

    "Because you made me sad. I wanted to help you but you left me. You were mean to me and most importantly you put yourself down with your dark thoughts. That hurts me." Theseus said.

    "I am sorry." Allias mumbled. "I…I was wrong."

    "What did you say? Please say it louder."

    "No"

    "Sorry then I didn''t hear you."

    "You did"

    "Nope, I did not." Theseus repeated with a faint smile. He couldn''t be mad. It was simply impossible. He knew that even if Allias decided to burn the whole world down he would follow him in an instant and he wouldn''t even ask why. He was that in love with him and that love only grew in these years. He couldn''t do anything about it because every time he looked at his face, the picture of true perfection he knew he had been imprisoned. Not by a physical prison. Shackles or cuffs were easy to remove. It was so much more. A lock had been placed on his heart from the first moment they had met eyes and there was no key to open it. Allias had full control of it and it was too late for him to retaliate. He didn''t even want to if he could be fully honest.

    "I hate you" Allias said and hit his fist on the sheets.

    "I hate you too" Theseus returned the phrase and the king looked at him shocked.

    "No you don''t"

    "Of course I do. You hate me so why can''t I hate you?"

    "No."

    "Yes."

    "No" Allias repeated and tears started to swell up in his eyes. Theseus for a second felt a pinch on his chest. He wondered if he was taking this a bit too far before suddenly Allias began wailing loudly. "I love you!" he shouted while crying. "So you have to love me too. Please. I am sorry I have been weird. I am trying. I really am but it''s so confusing. I really love you though, I am sorry for not taking your hand. I will take it now. Give it to me." He said and extended his arms. Theseus on the contrary crossed his arms on top of his chest with a frown.

    "No, now it''s too late" he said.

    "Noooo. Give me your hand" Allias cried and jumped on him trying to undo his arms and take at least one hand into his. "Give…me" he grunted as he tried hard but Theseus muscles were tenser that rocks and his arms wouldn''t even budge. "Please?" he pleated and started at him, his palms resting on his stomach. He started tracing his cold fingers downwards leaving his shirt and getting to the smooth fabric of his pants.

    Theseus gasped and slowly felt his whole body turning hot. Actually they hadn''t been intimate ever since Allias returned so now that he felt his fingertips, scout areas that they shouldn''t his heart beat speed up and every place that Allias touched burned.

    "Please" he repeated with a naughty smile and Theseus scoffed.

    "Do you really want my hand that badly?" He asked him and Allias nodded cutely. "Well then you better be ready to try hard for it" Theseus said with a smirk and he pushed the drunk boy on the bed pinning him down.

    "Oh don''t worry I will" Allias said with the same grin before he raised his head and actually head bumped him. Theseus let out a shout, not expecting his move and look at him. "How dare you bitch to do this to me" Allias shouted suddenly getting his whole fighting spirit back and pushed him off the bed and threw him on the floor.

    Theseus closed his eyes regretting every decision that had let up to this moment. Allias was a very bad drunk. And he had just made it worse. A lot worse. He thought as he stood up. The general took a fighting stance.

    "Come on then. Let''s see what you can do. Have you gotten rusty after all this time?" he made fun of him and Allias jumped off the bed suddenly a lot more agile and woke than before.

    "Oh, it''s on" Allias said

    Unfortunately, Ea would have to clean up again.
