   Summary

   Alfred is devastated, after realizing that he got turned into a vampire. Resignated and full of painful emotions he spends his time in the following two weeks laying face down in a bed back at Krolock's castle, hiding from the world and from himself. Will he lose himself during that, or will Herbert find a way to stabilize and eventually, comfort him?

   No smut, but near the end it get's a bit kinky (in a non-sexual way).
   (Because it includes the prompt from Kinktober Day 15: Massaging and back scratching - but this isn't the biggest part of this fic)
