Fear the cuteness!

So he's a bit of a Fixer Upper [Silver Fox]

Smiling as Micah seems to lean closer to the touch, Alver's slender fingers gingerly brushing the blonde hair as he patted the head like a caring parent. The older boy would do something like this whenever Alver did it, even in the middle of a spell. There were points even Alver couldn't snap out Micah out of it, that the albino would just sit beside him and pat his head while watching the others play. He wasn't the healthiest of kids so he couldn't run as much, but it was nice to sit next to Miky.

"Mhm is that so? What are you gonna do when he's a teenager I wonder?" Alver chuckled but gave a teasing smile. "I guess I just have a talent when it comes to kids. He's a good boy trying to be a grownup for his papa. Reminds me of myself a little since I felt I had to be the mature one when we were kids. But hey, I quite like Little Red and Goldilocks. Good morals." the tall man hummed thoughtfully.

Standing up, Alver gently squeezed the blonde's hand and gave a reassuring smile. "It really is quite alright. You need the rest and I'm not using it." he said before releasing the blonde's hand before heading upstairs to lead his childhood friend to the Master Bedroom. His steps quiet and ghostly, to make little sound as to not to wake Luke. Opening the door for Micah, Alver turned his lavender gaze to the blonde and gave a teasing grin.

"Do you want a bedtime story too?" The tall alibno asked.

Alver was a both a little relieved and disappointed that the blonde had decided not to hard anything. Although Alver wouldn't know what bothered Miky, he at least didn't have to tell the mismatched eye boy how pathetic the albino was. For now, until Luke and Miky were in a better position, Alver would let his door open a little before shutting himself in again. Should be okay if it's just for a little bit.

Chuckling a little, Alver gently ruffled the blonde hair with his free hand. "I suppose I'm just good with kids. He tries to act like a mature adult. But I did get him to let me feed him and spoil him a bit. He's a good kid, you really lucked out to have a adorable son like him. I also let him pick out a present then read him Little Red Riding Hood until he fell fast asleep." the tall pale man said, smiling at the thought of the cute child before turning his lavender gaze to Miky and teasingly poked his nose.

"Which by the way you should get some sleep too. I'll be awake and handle things while your resting." he hummed.

Alver flushed a little as for a change Miky was acting a bit his age. Jumping at the contact with his hand but didn't pull away from the touch. The tall pale man listened and gave a soft smile in response, turning his hand to gently return the hand holding. Thinking over the words for a moment, Alver chuckled a bit.

"It's alright, you're rambling is endearing." he hummed before turning his lavender gaze to look into the mismatched eyes. "How about this then? I'll share something if you share something." he mused before giving another sing song like laugh.

"Oh Luke quite adores you. He was worried I might steal you away from him. Promised him I wouldn't." he grinned.

The albino had been too busy thinking back through memories, including the ones that left him terrified that had his hands shaking ever so slightly, to notice Micah in time. Alver's eyes blinked in surprise as he found himself trapped by the blonde and by instinct Alver tensed and wanted to try and flee, but he just ended up freezing up instead. His slender frame ever so shaking a little as his pale lavender eyes watched the blonde.

Listening to the words, Alver gave a slight sad smile. He did appreciate the words, it had seemed... Miky had forgiven him to some extent to the little event in middle school. But Alver truly believed that none of what Miky said was true. Alver was a problem, a problem that just needed to disappear. His parents didn't do it, but they should have. They payed the price for it. So he took initiative and left his friends before the same happened. He knew Miky understood to some extent... But not like this. He cared too much to let the same happen to Miky. It was fine to be alone. He was fine. It be fine.

"...I can't.... Dad..." Alver murmured mostly to himself but stopped himself before he said too much and shook his head and gave a smile. Giving a chuckle and running his fingers through the blonde hair, giving the shorter boy a pat on the head.

"Thought you didn't want me to baby you?" he teased.

Alver gave a slight frown at Mikaela's annoyed words, closing his eyes as his fingers tightened together. "Haha you just make it so easy! It's your own fault, pretty bird." words echoed in his mind. Perhaps he was right, he had a bad habit to just baby anyone. It made him happy and at ease to take care of someone he supposed, to try and make them happy. He just.. wanted everyone else to be safe and happy.

Opening his eyes to look at Mikaela once more at the response to the dreams, Alver chuckled a little. "Just different places that I tried to draw when we were kids. He likes the forest with the fireflies." he said, thoughtfully thinking back to those days. He wouldn't exactly admit to Mikaela that he had tried so hard to learn to paint in order to just recreate Miky's dreams. In order to try and make Miky smile. OF course they didn't start out as good, but the little albino had tried and retried until he was somewhat satisfied enough to be worthy of the dream. When he thought back to then, he really was a lovestruck pup. It surprised him it took till middle school to figure that whole thing out.

Listening to the words about stress, Alver looked to the blonde thoughtfully, frowning at the light grimace he saw. It could be just stress, and there were a few things he could say but he left it at that. "Maybe. I just want you to be okay is all." he said before turning his gaze away, unclasping his hands and gingerly picking up his cup of tea.

"...I'm sorry, if I make you uncomfortable or anything. I know I'm not exactly the person you want to be around, but if you ever need to talk or anything, I'll be here." Alver said, no longer looking at the blonde as he took another sip of his tea. Staring at nothing as his thoughts ran silent within his mind. Why was he doing this? He disappeared from everyone for a reason and now he was butting in on his former crush's business. Maybe he was just lonely. Or just overly worried like the mother hen in him usually got.

Alver flicked his lavender gaze to his childhood friend as he started to ramble his words a bit and the albino set his tea cup down. "It's alright Miky. I don't use it at night anyway. I'll just be working while your sleeping. Don't worry. It's been awhile since I've gotten to baby you a little after all." he said with a soft amused smile before taking another sip from his tea as he watched the blonde eat before asking about Luke. The tall man gave a warm smile in response.

"Very well, Luke was well behaved. He has some of you in him for sure, but a bit more control. Quite mature for his age." Alver chuckled a little, though his gaze softened in thought, placing the cup down and intertwined his elegant fingers together. Resting his chin upon the back of the fingers, the albino thought over the words the child had spoke of. Debating if he should bring it up. Alver probably shouldn't go digging, it wasn't really his business right? But he was worried. For both Mikaela and Luke. Maybe just talking about it would help a little?

"Have you been alright? Luke seems to be a bit worried about you." Alver asked, his voice gentle instead of stern. "He told me about your spells. Wondering the little tricks I picked up when we were together." He said, closing his eyes.

"It made me sad to hear he was starting to hate them. He seemed scared." Alver mused before opening his eyes to look at Luke. "I cheered him up a little when I showed him my experience. But, I wanted to ask if you were okay?" the albino asked, his lavender gaze watching the blonde with a gentle concerned gaze.
