Holding Unto You.
When Conrad wakes up, there's half a lapful of sleeping king over him, one of Yuuri's legs over his own, his other hand clinging to his shirt. From what little he can see without moving, Yuuri's mouth is half open and he's snoring a little.
Conrad smiles and tries a move that used to work on Wolfram when this happened and he was young, gathering Yuuri closer to him, close enough that Yuuri mutters something in his sleep and cuddles until they're pressed flush against each other, as slow and careful as he knows how, craddling Yuuri's head with a hand, his other arm around his waist and rolling them over.
Yuuri remains sleeping, but his plan doesn't work as Conrad planned, since Yuuri doesn't let go of him, his hand still holding tight to his shirt, his forehead and nose pressed against his neck.
Conrad sighs softly and shakes his head. It's late and he knows he should go, but the bed is so warm and with Yuuri's body cuddling as close as possible, he doesn't wish to move. So instead he moves again, once more careful of not waking up the sleeping king so that they can both be on their sides, one of his arms craddling Yuuri's head, their legs tangled together, before Conrad closes his eyes again.

Summary: The kid is almost nothing like Julia. It's not an insult, that.
Rating: PG.
No Reflection.
The kid is almost nothing like Julia. Adalbert doesn't really mean that as a bad thing. Not now, at least. Perhaps, before, it would've been held in the same way that he always held the women he never bed during twenty years.
It's an insult at first, but as he grows to the idea - or visceversa- it becomes a compliment for the boy to be no-one else but himself, reincarnation or not. Adalbert doesn't cheapen his merits by thinking he learned from Julia, and rather thinks that this king might finally be worthy to serve, sometime, perhaps.
The kid greets him with a smile and he waves his arm to him, eyes merry and voice happy and loud as unpolished as it comes. Adalbert laughs back, harsh and equally loud, and slasp the boy's back harsh enough that the boy wheezes and Adalbert ignores the way the way his court glares.
Yuuri smiles at him and his smile doesn't hold the secrets that Julia decided to keep. Adalbert will never understand that decission, for all that he loved her - and loves her still, but the way Yuuri keeps no secret makes Adalbert think, 'it's okay'.
