Ellis was quiet as they walked.

"Alright, here we are… do you want anything in particular?"
He shook his head. "Not really."
Lloyd nodded and headed into the kitchen. He had a conversation with the cooks and soon got some food, which he had Ellis hold since his own hands were occupied.
Ellis willingly held the food, a faint smile on his face.
"Alright… now we can head back up to my room to eat if you want."
He nodded a little. "Alright."
Lloyd headed back up the stairs, careful not to fall.
Ellis carried the food as they walked.
Lloyd sat down on his bed when they got to his room.
Ellis sat down beside him, holding out a plate towards him.
"Thanks…" Lloyd sighed and started eating his food.
"Mhm." he replied, eating as well.
Lloyd leaned against Ellis, eating quietly.
(Happy birthday!)
Ellis leaned his head on Lloyd's shoulder as he ate.
(Ty <3)
Lloyd soon finished his food and huddled up against Ellis.
(Np!)
Ellis smiled a little, still eating.
"Mmmm… I wish I didn't have responsibilities today…" Lloyd sighed.
"Oh. What do you have to do?"
"I'll have to talk to my father. I'm sure he's going to want to talk about the whole marriage situation…"
"Oh." he replied, quiet as he looked down at his plate.
"I still don't wanna get married…" Lloyd sighed, burying his face in Ellis's chest.
"I know." he replied quietly.
"Why does he want me to get married so soon?"
"I don't know." He replied.
Lloyd huddled closer to Ellis. "I just wanna stay here with you… I don't wanna get married…"
Ellis looked at him, smiling slightly. "Oh. Well."
"I feel safer with you…" Lloyd sighed. "I dunno why."
He shrugged. "I don't know. You're the one that's six foot, after all. I'm the tiny one."
"Yeah, yeah… not quite that tall, but I guess I'm close. I feel more safe… um… emotionally, I guess. I feel like I can be myself around you without worrying."
