Lore Week Day 3!

Chapter 3- 13 years old

I stepped into the dark alleyway, checking my surroundings before letting out a breath. I walked further into it, letting out a breath as I dropped my backpack to the ground and sat against a wall. I unzipped my backpack, grabbing out an apple I’d stolen earlier today. I grabbed my trusty pocket knife that I’d taken from some old creep in a casino ages ago and quickly started slicing it. I might be homeless but I still had some manners. 

I kept a tight grip on the blade as I grabbed a slice with my other hand. I was about to take a bite before I heard steps coming. I straightened, immediately holding my knife up higher as I looked around. There- to my right I could see someone walking over to me, but it was too dark to see anything but a faint outline. I stepped up, my small meal forgotten. “What do you want?” I snapped, refusing to let my voice tremble. 

The silhouette came closer, showing me just enough to reveal it was a man. I stepped back. Oh shit- out of all the types of people to see in a dark alley, this was not my first pick. “Go away, seriously.” I said, holding the knife up higher. “Woah, chill- I’m not going to hurt you.” I blinked in confusion. His voice was different than I expected, smoother than the ruff voices I was used to, and I could practically hear the fear in his voice. 

I hesitantly stepped closer, still ready to hurt him if I needed to. I squinted my eyes, trying to see him better. He looked about my age, and was a few inches taller than me. “I’m really sorry girl, I just wanted to ask for some food.” He walked closer, pointing to where my backpack and untouched apple were sitting. I crossed my arms. “In case you haven’t noticed, I’m sort of low on supplies.” I lied. 

I had enough food to share with this guy, but I didn’t trust him not to kidnap me and sell me on the black market. “Are you sure? It looked like you had plenty of food 3 minutes ago.” He said, and I could see him cross his arms. “It’s a no, buddy. Get out of here.” I said, using my irritation to hide the tremor in my voice. “I swear I’m not going to kidnap you or whatever you’re thinking.” He said, and I could hear the pleading in his voice. 

Damn this dude was persistent. “Fine.” I sighed, sitting back down by my backpack, but I kept a death grip on my blade. “One wrong move-“ I started. “Yeah, I’ve got it.” The boy said, sitting down across from me so that I could actually see him. Woah.

His light brown hair was a little greasy, but I had a feeling it looked better once it was washed. His brown eyes were gorgeous, a sweet chocolate brown. He immediately looked more trust worthy. I blinked a few times, trying to make sure he actually looked like that and not the dirty creep I was expecting. Once I confirmed he was in fact real, I noticed his expression. He was looking at me in shock, or maybe disbelief. 

“Uh- I have some ritz crackers too.” I said, quickly rummaging through my backpack and handing him a sleeve of the crackers. “Thank you.” He said, quickly eating them all. I watched him for a moment before I remembered the growing hunger in my stomach and I awkwardly started to eat my apple. “So have you been on the streets for a while?” He asked after swallowing. I shrugged. “Not really. Just like, four months.” He whistled. “Damn. I’ve only been here for like- two weeks.” 

He told me. I was curious to why he was homeless, but I didn’t wonder to ask him and then have him want me to explain my backstory. So I nodded and took another bite. “You’re the only person I’ve met that’s around my age so far.” He pointed out. “And the only one who’s been willing to help me. I shrugged. “I’ll help anyone who isn’t trying to kill me.”

 He chuckled, before smiling as if he got an idea. “You know, we’re two homeless teenagers who don’t want to kill each other, that’s pretty rare. Maybe we could work together?” He gave me a grin and all logic went out the window. “Yeah, that would be.. smart.” I said, quickly nodded. His grin widened and I swear my heart was going to explode. “Well then, new partner in crime,” He held out his hand. “The names Lucas. And you are?” A smile tugged at my lips as I shook my hand. “Robin.”

Do you ever think about how important and significant Alex's action to give his key to Henry was?

Alex had brought the key with him everywhere throughout his life since he got it.

Then, the first moment he's quietly alone with Henry, Alex gets to explain what it means to him: it's the key to his family's house in Austin.

But it means much more to him: it's from the times when his family was still all together (book), it's his childhood, his time growing up in Texas, it's his mixed blood, and the quiet life he left behind to follow his mother in something bigger than him.

That key is his comfort and reminder of what he was and the memories he will treasure forever.

Alex doesn't tell all of this to Henry, but Mr. HRH Prince Dickhead knows there's more about it underneath, just like how he had always known Alex wasn't just a peasant boy.

Alex brings his keychain everywhere and Henry is always there to admire it.

The key to Henry means something completely different: it's the reminder of his unusual life, the fact that he can't have such normal things as possessing a simple key, it represents all the things he can only admire from afar but he'll never be able to posses.

And then Alex breaks the wall that Henry thought would suffocate him forever, that seemed impossible to destroy.

Alex starts to remove the key when he's in the most intimate moments with Henry. He decides to leave the thoughts and worries related to his family for another time. He decides to be fully Henry's, even during just brief rendezvous.

And Henry takes everything he can, as far as he can. Till the moment, he's sure will come, when the magic breaks and the key will return to be something to admire and desire from afar, but never possess.

But Alex isn't just a peasant boy.

He hands over his childhood, his memories and his whole being to Henry, with just a simple gesture. Alex says "Henry, I'm yours." by giving him the object of his desires, by breaking the illusion that Henry can't be a normal boy, simply owning the key of someone's heart.

And Henry is reluctant to accept it, cause he knows (just like he had always known that Alex wasn't just a peasant boy) that the key means so much to him. But Henry accepts, cause he wants to believe that the wall between them can break, Alex made him believe it. And he grips and holds onto that hope like his life depends on it, cause it does.

Alex is the only key to his freedom.
