Leo x Lucky (LeoLuck)
Hell Ember x Lucky Guy
“Losing everything and having nothing to lose , which one is worse ?”
“Mr.Beck , fancy meeting you . What are you doing here this late ?”, Lucky ran into someone he did not expect to meet here when he had gone out for a walk . A hunter is hiding in the survivor’s garden .
“I. . .umm i . . .i am just here to. . .to . . .you know. . . “, the hunter , Hell Ember or Leo , for short , is stuttering . He didnt expect anyone to go out this late either .
“No matter what you said , Mr.Beck . Its against the rule to come out of your place this late “ , Lucky said .
“I guess i also broke the rule going out here . Let keep it a secret from Miss.Nightingale then “ , Lucky fixed his glasses position .
“. . .thank you” , Leo said softly .
“Can i join you to stay here ? I dont want to come back in yet “ , Lucky pointed at the bush next to Leo .
“Sure , i dont own this place . You can do whatever you want “ , Leo moved slightly .
“Mr.Beck , can i ask you a question ?” , Lucky started .
“What is it , kid ?”, Leo patted Lucky’s head .
“What does family mean to you ?”, Lucky looked at the hunter .
Leo stopped for a moment , “. . .everything . It means everything to me”
“Well , should i be happy because its just your answer “ , Lucky smiled sadly ,”If everyone answers the same as you , then does it mean im the only one who has nothing “
“Kid , what’s wrong ?” , Leo can feel it , the broken in his sound , the darkness in his eyes . He used to be like that before .
“We had a few drinks , everyone got drunk and started to talk about their past and dream “, Lucky sighed ,” Only then , i realized how much i am different from them “
“ Kid , head up and smile . You are still too young to think about that , just get up and keep living “ , Leo encouraged .
“But. . .”, Lucky wanted to say something .
“No , dont say anything . Listen to me , im talking right now “ , Leo made the silent sign .
Lucky stayed silent .
“You know about my incident ?”, Leo asked .
Lucky nodded .
“I regret it , i regret every single pieces of it “ , Leo shook his head ,” and dont tell me its not my fault . Its neither about him nor her , i just hate that i gave up too soon at that time “
“When i set that factory in fire , i wanted everything to end . I was being too. . .stupid . Too stupid to realize that there was still a little hope for me , she was still waiting for me to come “, Leo told his story . Sound more like his feeling about that time .
“And then. . .you know the rest . I get surrected here , and become a . . . “, Leo coughed , “. . .fate is sure to be both kind and cruel at the same time , but at least im being thankful about this chance . I cant be more happy to meet her again , this time i will not give up “
“And neither should you , kid “ , Leo patted Lucky again , “Dont give up . If you think that you dont have anything back then , you can start to make something now “
“Lucky ! Where are you ?”, some is shouting in the manor .
“See , they are looking for you . Who can say that someone worrys for you is not your family . Kid , losing everything or having nothing to lose is not that bad . If you refuse to give up , you will find something to live for “, Leo said the wise words .
“Now , go back there with them or both of us will get caught out here “, Leo shoved .
“. . .thanks . Mr.Leo “ , Lucky felt something bloom inside him . He stood up .
Lucky walked back to the opened window and climbed in .
“Guys ! Im here ! Sorry for taking so long , i just dozed off “ , Lucky called out . Getting attention from 2 people , William and Eli .
“Doze off on the lobby ?”, William is confused .
“Yes , yes i did “, Lucky avoided those eyes looking at him .
“Its okay , please be more carefull next time . Its easy to get caught “ , Eli looked over the opened window ,”by a cold in this weather “
“Yeah , yeah , i will “, Lucky is sweating instead . The seer might know something , he is unexpectable .
“Let go and tell the others ! Dont make them worry too much “ , William dragged both of them away .
This moment might be something he should treasure , Lucky thought and smiled , maybe he will be nicer to Mr.Leo in match more .

Bonus scene :
“I heard you are trying to hit on my papa”, Emma grabbed Lucky clothes and picked him up like how cat picks up their kitten .
“ Ha ha”, Lucky made out 2 humourless sound and begged, “ Please have mercy “
“Oh , i will “, the gardener smiled .
