Seraph of the End

A/N

Quick author’s note. This story will be taking place after episode 7 of the anime and will continue into what happens in the manga. I truly apologize if I spoil anything for the non-manga readers and truly hope you still can enjoy this story.

 

1.

 

The water feels nice. Surrounding me with a feeling of emptiness that has a taste of softness. The way the translucent substance traces my body with it’s slender fingertips calms my heartbeat and slows my usual panting breath. My eyes don’t burn when I open them, so I look up into the water to see the sky. Perfect black sky dotted with glowing spots. I lift a naked hand to the stars and smile in spite of myself. It feels so good to relax for once. The feeling of the cool liquid swimming in and out of my pours, lifting all the heavy dirt and revenge off of it, leaving me with this utter blissful feeling of cleanliness.

 

I’m startled to see the fire. At first, I don’t understand it’s orange thorns or the heat radiating off of them. I’m hit with confusion, then terror. The water is being purged by this heat and taking my body with it. No! I try and swim away from it’s grasp but it’s right behind me, the flames licking my heals waiting for me to give up and fall back into it’s grasp. I struggle for a bit and my breathing is to a low pant now as I try and swim away. All I can feel is my body being dragged down towards the flames. I need to get up to the surface! I find myself struggling for oxygen, my lungs burning in the fire’s sensation. I can’t. . .I’m slipping. . .

 

Yu!

 

I hear echo through the water. It’s a call. My name. And a silvery hand reaches into view. The glowing hand is attached to an arm, which connects to a shoulder, which reveals my savior. The one person who could ever save me and the only person in hell I will ever allow to save me.

 

Mika.

 

I see him. I call his name. I start to work harder to reach him. Not working, not working! Damn it! Harder! Harder! I pump my legs farther, tears of exhaustion leaking from my eyes.

 

Mika!

 

Mika!

 

Mika!

 

I can’t stop calling his name. I don’t know why, but I can’t leave him. I must get to him. He’s calling my name too and I can barely hear him now. I start to actually cry now. Frustration takes over and I can’t reach him. I start to drown. Water forces it’s way into my lungs and blackness etches at the edges of my vision and I give up, and fall into the flames, Mika screaming my name, his eyes frightened and wide like they were that day. Tears leaked out of them as he tried pushing against the invisible force holding him back, reaching his pale arm as far as it could go. I extended my arm, feeling the heat growl against my resistance and called his name one last time.

 

MIKA!

 

I woke up in a pool of my own sweat, panting, wet hot tears falling over my cheeks, Yoichi was standing by my bedside, gripping the metal with white knuckles.

 

“Yu-kun. . .?” quizzed the brunette and my shaking hands found their way to my face, brushing the tears. My throat was raw, and my whole body was shaking. Ew, ew, ew, I’m gonna –

 

“Yoichi, move!” I shouted and vomited over the side of my bed. Shinoa was standing against the doorframe of my bedroom and winced at me as I tried to recover. Gasping for breath, I sat up and wiped my mouth. I grip my pillow to my chest and breath heavily into it, forcing myself not the cry. Why this scared me so much was a mystery. I had, had dreams about leaving Mika before but this was different. It felt like he was being separated from me, being pulled forever out of reach by the vampires.

 

“Yu-kun. . .” started Yoichi. “Who’s Mika?”

 

I stopped breathing for about two seconds. Had I. . . had I been calling out for him. . . .in my sleep!? All the blood went rushing into my cheeks and my eyes leaked more water. I wish they’d stop. There was nothing I could do to make them stop though. I sniffled and squeezed the pillow so tight in my hand that I was afraid it might explode.

 

“. . .he’s. . . Mika’s. . .” I said and couldn’t finish. Shinoa had come over to me and wrapped her arms around me. My body fell into her and I started to cry loudly. God shut up, idiot! You aren’t supposed to cry like a child when you’re sixteen! And a boy!

 

“Yu, it’s okay to cry. I can see you holding back. I think that’s the problem. You’ve pushed this issue down way too long. You need to let it all out. Scream if you like. I’m right here for you.” She whispered, holding me tighter. Was it. . . was it really okay for me to cry? Was it? She could sense my hesitation.

 

“It’s only us. We aren’t going to tell anyone. It happens to all of us – there you go. Let it all out.” She said and I decided to push the protective barrier off my chest and I sobbed into her shoulder.

 

“I miss him so much!” I cried. Oh how I’ve longed to say that out loud. I did miss him. I missed him with every fiber in my body. My only family member, gone. Maybe dead. Maybe a puppet. I don’t know. I want to see him again. To burry his little blonde head in my chest and feel his body heat. I wanted my brother back. I wanted to apologize. To make sure he was okay. But I had a feeling he wasn’t.

 

“I know, I know.” She whispered, rubbing my back. Yoichi was too frightened to move. He’d never seen me broken like this. Hell, no one had ever seen me broken like this before.

 

“He. . .i can’t. . .oh god!” I screamed as my heart felt like it was turning in on itself and knotting around. I gripped my skin over my heart and cried.

 

“What’s wrong? Yu?” asked Shinoa.

 

“M-my heart. . . it hurts. . .” I choked out. She sighed and continued to rub my back.

 

“I know it hurts. It’s gonna be okay.” She whispered. I finally collapsed on her lap as she moved to sit on my bed and I curled into a ball. I wanted to disappear. I wanted to be gone from this earth. There was no reason to be alive without Mika.

 

“M-mika. . .” I sobbed. Her eyes were full of such pity that it disgusted me.

 

“Can you tell me who Mika is?” she asked. I gulped and let out a shaky breath.

 

“He’s my brother. Not my real brother. More my best friend. But we. . .me. . .him. . .Akane-san. . .we were all a family. . . “ I said crying.

 

“What happened? What happened to Mika?” asked Yoichi softly.

 

“We tried to escape, the vampire city. God, I think back to; what if we never left that night?  But we did. We walked all the way to the exit, until we got caught. I saw everyone murdered.. . .and what did I do? I watched. I stood and fucking watched. Then it was only Akane Mika and I. he killed Akane with a swipe of his hand and I watched her beautiful fragile body crumple towards the tile, blood splattering the porcelain. Mika lost it then. He snatched the anti-vampire gun out of my hand and went for him. Mika put up a good fight. His arm was torn off. He fell to the ground, his blue eyes loosing their light. I took the gun then and shot the noble in the head. I then tried to drag Mika towards the exit but. . .it was too late. I couldn’t do it! I abandoned him because I couldn’t do it!” I said pounding my fists into the mattress and sobbing my poor eyes out.

 

“You were twelve. You were far braver than any other twelve-year-old was. A normal twelve-year-old would fall to a worthless heap on the ground and give up then and there. But you didn’t. You found the way out. Did Mika tell you to go? Is that why you did it?” she asked. I nodded. My eyes were started to turn from a downpour to a slight drizzle and Shinoa patted my head softly. Yoichi sighed and reached out a hand.

 

“Huh?”

 

“Come on. You sorta wet the bed. You can come sleep at my place tonight.” Smiled Yoichi. Shit, what!? I then went cold. I felt the coldness in between my legs and my face turned red. I nodded and stumbled to my feet where a blanket was wrapped around my shoulders.

 

“Why were you guys here anyway?” I asked.

 

“The neighbors said they heard screaming. When the Guren probably noticed you were having a nightmare, he sent us up here. We found you gripping the bedposts, screaming at the top of your lungs. You were crying too. We waiting respectfully until you woke up.” Said Shinoa as I got dressed in different pajamas. When I got out of my closet, I walked down the stairs to find a group of four standing at the foot of the stairs. There was a man, a woman, a little boy and teenage girl.

 

“What was the screaming about? Is everything okay?” asked the man, hugging the child. I gripped the banister.

 

“Yu had a nightmare. He’s sick. Some demon poisoning. We’re taking him to the infirmary now. If you hadn’t called the Imperial Demon Army, Yu could’ve died.” Said Yoichi, while Shinoa and I stared at him.

 

“Oh, that’s awful! I hope he gets well.” Cried the woman. Tch. I didn’t need her sympathy. Yoichi scratched the back of his neck. Wait did he just say something? My hearing was dipping in and out and the room suddenly started to spin. I gripped the staircase railing and started to fall.

 

“Yu!” cried Shinoa and caught me, as the family gasped.

 

“Call an ambulance!” was the last thing I heard the woman scream and I blacked out.

 

 

2.

 

Yu.

 

I heard it as clear as he said it to me.

 

“Mika.” I said and reached out to touch him but I blinked and realized it wasn’t Mika, but Guren.

 

“HUUUUH!? GUREN!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY BEDROOM!?” I cried. I had to be still asleep. Wake up! No more nightmares.

 

“You’re not in your bedroom, baka.” Snapped Guren. I looked around and noticed that indeed I wasn’t. I was in a hospital room, an IV in my arm.

 

“Why am I in a hospital?” I asked.

 

“Last night you collapsed and your annoying neighbors called paramedics. Of course, you were just physically exhausted. The doctor said you body was in the condition of a post marathon runner’s. You didn’t run any marathons yesterday, did you?” asked Guren.

 

“No.” I snapped. He sighed.

 

“Well, you’re fine other than the fact that you had a slight fever from the nightmare. I’m giving you pills that will help with that.” Said Guren. I shoved his hand away.

 

“Baaaka. I don’t need your fucking pills. This won’t happen again.” I said and ripped the IV out with a grunt. I threw the blankets off me and stormed from the room.

 

“Look who’s awake.” Smiled Shinoa and Mitsuba was standing against the wall, her arms crossed. Yoichi ran up to me and tackled me.

 

“YU! We were so worried!” cried Yoichi. Kimizuki rolled his eyes.

 

“No, you were worried about him. All we’ve been doing was waiting for him to wake up so we could go out on the front lines again.” Snapped the pinkette. I sighed.

 

“Well no need to worry! The best fighter is back on his fe – GAH!” I cried as Guren’s familiar hand found it’s way to my arm and threw me against the wall.

 

“Baka. Shut up and put your uniform on.” He snapped and dragged Mitsuba off to talk to her. I gritted my teeth and dressed. When I walked out, Shinoa, Kimizuki, and Yoichi stood waiting.

 

“Ready?” asked Shinoa.

 

“Mm.” I nodded my answer.

 

We took the B train all the way to where we were positioned. Shinjuku. (now moving on to the manga part. But it will only contain the fight at Shinjuku then will continue as my own story) we proceeded into battle like normal. I activated my demon power. The usual. (and now it’s my story) We were fighting vampire nobles and I thought I saw a glimpse of purple hair . . .it can’t be.

 

No.

 

But it was.

 

Ferid.

 

My breath caught in my throat as I watched the vampire noble run around, sword in hand. I watched him while he went up and talked to the other nobles.

 

There was only one.

 

A blonde.

 

With blue eyes.

 

No.

 

It can’t be. . .

 

“Yu!” cried a voice and suddenly I was standing in front of Mika.

 

“You . . .are you. . .”I said. I couldn’t breath. The whole world had stopped moving and I stood in front of a tall blonde vampire with blue eyes. He was crying, streams of water but smiling.

 

“Yuichiro.” Breathed the vampire.

 

“Mikaela?” I whispered. He nodded frantically. But he was, my comrades, I couldn’t. . .

 

“Yu-chan!” he cried and suddenly a pair of arms were wrapped around me. My eyes had large tears dumping out them, much like the night before and I gripped him tightly.

 

“Let’s go somewhere more private.” He whispered and I did remember we were in the middle of the battlefield. I didn’t care about fighting anymore. Mika was with me now. He wasn’t dead. But he was a vampire. I pushed myself away from him.

 

“V-vampire.” I stuttered. His eyes grew wide with shock as I backed away from him. A beast. A monster.

 

“Yu-chan, wait! I was forced to. I didn’t want to be a vampire! I’ve never drank a drop of human blood! Only animal! And all I’ve thought about since that day was finding you, so come here damn it!” he cried and snatched my arm. He swung me up and into his arms like a bride and flew away, leaving Shinjuku in the dust. He landed inside the fifth floor of an abandoned building and set me on my feet. We stared at each other for seconds, which seemed like hours and Mika bowed his head.

 

“I am a monster. You deserve to hate me. I hate me.” he said, tears running down his cheeks. For some reason it hurt to see him in pain. God it hurt so much to see those blue eyes sad. I gathered up some nerve and walked towards him touching his arm softly.

 

“I don’t hate you.” I whispered. I needed to tell him he wasn’t a monster but I had no way to do so. He looked up.

 

“You don’t?”

 

“No. I’m so happy to see you. . .Mika. . . I’ve missed you so much. . .and I should be the one being hated on. I was the one who abandoned you. I’m so sorry.” I said and looked at my shoes, my hand gripping the fabric of his cloak. I felt fingertips on my chin and I was now looking into his eyes.

 

“Don’t be sorry. That’s in the past. We’re both alive. We’re both safe. But you. . .those humans are using you. I would ask you if you’d run away with me again but now I realize how childish a dream that is. So can I at least protect you?” he asked.

 

“Huh?”

 

“Let me be by your side.” He said, his voice was a low whisper now and we were way too close together. But I didn’t move. I just kept drowning in those blue orbs. Wait. . .what. . .no.. He’s a guy. I’m a guy. So why do I want to kiss him? Why do I want my body pressed up against his? I gasped as we leaned closer. This wasn’t happening. This wasn’t happening. I was so nervous. How do you even kiss someone? Has he ever done it before? Will he guide me? Does he actually want to kiss me? Or am I just seeing this as him wanting to kiss me? He may just want to talk to me. But when he closed his eyes, I knew his intentions. The anxious feeling in my chest rose. I whimpered slightly as his hand pressed into the small of my back and pushed me up towards him. I could feel his breath on my lips and his blue eyes were slits, wilting out of bliss. His hand caressed the side of my face and he tilted his own and touched our lips. I took in one of the biggest breaths I’ve ever taken at the sudden explosion inside me. My nerves were tingling. My knees shaking and fingertips wobbling.

 

My eyes wandered closed as he. . .wait is he trying to put his tongue in my mouth? Is that how people kiss? I nervously opened my locked lips and he placed his tongue inside, wandering his new territory. The kiss was getting quite passionate. My hands were clutching and pulling at his hair at an attempt to pull him closer to me, even though his body was pressing up against me. I backed up to the wall and he pressed me up against it, his tongue licking around my lips and back in again. My arms were done with his hair and rested around his neck. He lifted me up slightly and spun me around laughing slightly in between kisses.

 

“You don’t understand how long I’ve waited to do that.” He whispered, our foreheads touching. We were still so close that I leaned down and left butterfly kisses up his collarbone. He gasped slightly and lifted my face back up to his and kissed me again, this time my tongue got to go into his mouth.

 

“Ah, Yu . . .” he reacted to my sudden demand for dominance. A crazy thought entered my head but I dismissed it. He was my best friend. I couldn’t ask him. . .but my heart got the best of my brain and with a dirty finger sliding up his torso, I asked him.

 

“You know, I have an apartment a little ways from here if you wanna, you know. . .” I said in between kisses. He looked at me, kissing me hard once more and sighed.

 

“No.” he said and I looked down embarrassed and disappointed. “No, no that’s not what I meant. I only meant that maybe we shouldn’t. the vampires and the demon army will wonder where we are.” Muttered Mika as we continued to kiss slowly.

 

“I don’t really care. I also don’t want to push anything. We literally just met for the first time in four years.” I chuckled. He smiled.

 

“I want to though.” He whined. “I want to feel every inch of my precious angel.” He whispered to himself.

 

“Next time, I promise. I’ll see you another time?” I asked, he nodded.

 

“Tomorrow.” He promised.

 

“Tomorrow.” I confirmed. “Hold on. Punch me. we need to look like we’ve been fighting or something.”

 

He nodded and punched me square in the face, breaking my nose and giving me a black eye. I laughed and he reached up and kissed me again.

 

“I’ll miss you.” He whispered.

 

“I’ll miss you too.” I answered back and walked out of the building.

 

3.

(WARNING! This is rated ‘Y’ for Yaoi! Mika-sama wants to get his freak on.)

 

I lied in bed that night, the nose Band-Aid pressing against my skin. I clicked the TV channels everywhere until I finally found a decent anime to watch. I must have dosed off then because when I woke up, it was to my alarm. I woke up feeling warm and fuzzy. Mika was alive. And he kissed me. better yet, we almost went. . .there. . .

 

I honestly don’t even know how that even works. I know the birds and bees obviously but not for guys. Maybe I should do my research. I fumbled around the living room for my phone and looked up Yaoi. After finding a couple fanfictions, I had a pretty good idea about what happens when two guys have sex. I felt nervous now. Did I really want to go that far with him? my childhood friend I’d only reunited with the day before? I didn’t know how he was going to find me and when but today was the day I lost the cherry boy title.

 

I slipped into my uniform, yawned, and walked down to the station where I met Shinoa.

 

“No battle today?” I asked her. She nodded.

 

“So, Yu, I have a question for you.” She asked.

 

“Eh?”

 

“Where did you disappear to yesterday?” she said, wriggling her eyebrows.

 

“N-no where. I went to try and find someone.” I said. I wanted to be at least a tiny bit honest with her.

 

“A girl?”

 

“No.” I said gulping. “Mika.”

 

“You went off to find your dead brother?” quizzed the purple-head.

 

“He isn’t dead. He’s a vampire now.” I said biting my lip.

 

“Oh. Well, that’s. . .good.” she said trying to lighten the mood.

 

“YU! GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!” shouted Mitsuba and I sighed.

 

“Yeah?”

 

“WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING, RUNNING OFF LIKE THAT!?” she cried. She had gotten the attention of Yoichi and Kimizuki.

 

“I found Mika.”

 

Yoichi stared and smiled.

 

“I’m so happy for you, Yu-kun!” Yoichi exclaimed throwing his arms around me.

 

Mitsuba gave me a confused look.

 

“What’s a ‘Mika?’”

 

“His brother he thought was dead, but isn’t. Now he’s a vampire.” Explained Shinoa. Mitsuba nodded.

 

“Oh. I guess that’s alright NO IT FUCKING ISN’T. YOU DON’T ABANDON THE TEAM UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE!” cried the blonde. I sighed.

 

Play the emotional card.

 

I bowed my head and gripped my cloak. I thought about Mika dying and tears slipping into my eyes.

 

“I missed him so much. I-I’m sorry Mitsuba.” I said pretending to be hurt. She sighed as Shinoa patted me on the shoulder.

 

“The nightmare the other night was about Mika.” Mumbled Shinoa and I pretended more to let that ‘hurt’ me more.

 

“S-Shinoa. . .don’t talk about that. . .” I whispered.

 

“Jeez, Yu, pull yourself together! Fine I forgive you!” she snapped and strutted off somewhere. I wiped my eyes and Shinoa and I burst out laughing.

 

X

 

I walked into my apartment late that night after dinner with the squad and went to flick the light on when a familiar pair of lips found mine. I hummed happily against them as our lips slipped sloppily together, Mika’s tongue searching for dominance.

 

“I was wondering when you’d show up. At least let me get you something first.” I whispered. He smiled and let me turn on the light. He stood in front of me, wearing black pants and a soft light blue top. He looked utterly gorgeous in the small light of my entryway and I walked past him.

 

“Have a seat.” I said, gesturing towards the couch. He sat down and I went off to change. I changed into a soft gray top and jeans and walked back into the living room. He stood up and walked over to me, placing his arms around me.

 

“Mm, I wanna fuuuuck.” He whined. I smiled and slipped underneath his embrace.

 

“Give me a minute.” I said and slipped into my small kitchen and opened the fridge, producing a bottle of human blood I’d gotten at the hospital. I put in the microwave and heated it up while Mika licked his lips.

 

“I don’t want you getting hungry while I’m trying to enjoy myself.” I laughed and he took the bottle and gulped it down.

 

“Thanks, babe.”

 

“What the fuck did you just call me!?” I exclaimed and he kissed me limply.

 

“Nothing.” He chuckled and threw the bottle away. “Gotta toothbrush?” he asked and I nodded.

 

“Why. . .?” I asked as he went into my bathroom.

 

“Gotta get the taste of blood out of my teeth.” He called from the bathroom and I waited patiently for him to return. He came back two minutes later.

 

“Your toothpaste is nice.” He said. “Minty.”

 

“Shut up.” I snapped and kissed him hard and passionately. He smiled against my lips and pushed me down on the couch. Feeling Mika on top of me was overwhelming and I moaned slightly.

 

“I have a feeling you’re going to be noisy.” Mused Mika as I took a gasp of air. I hooked my fingers in his belt loops and pulled him down on me, wanting more friction.

 

He took his pale hands and went exploring underneath my t-shirt. I winced slightly at how cold his hands were but soon recovered when it was replaced by warmth. I bit down on his neck, hoping to leave what the fanfiction called ‘a love mark’ and sucked slightly.

 

“Ah-hah. Someone’s been doing his studying.” Whispered Mika. I laughed and reached my hands up his shirt.

 

“For goodness sake, Yu, take if off.” He whined and I slipped it off over his head. There I was able to look at his flawless muscles. So perfect and beautiful. I traced my finger along them and felt his nipples harden. He rolled us over in a swirl of kisses and touches and we ended up on the floor. Someone’s hand was either on their belt buckle or under the other’s shirt and I was started to get nervous which only caused for a tightening in my lower section. I read up on it and it was a boner. Apparently it’s what happens to your cherry boy spot when you’re turned on.

 

He sensed this and reached down to stroke it.

 

“Damn it. . .huh” I moaned as it pressed against my tight jeans.

 

“Control yourself, dear.” Mika whispered in my ear. He was also excited.

 

“J-just unzip it a little, don’t take them off yet.” I whispered, trying to get used to the idea of being naked and exposed to Mika, now that we were almost fully developed. Mika nodded and unzipped the zipper on my jeans, releasing some of the pressure.

 

He leaned down and entangled himself in me again, and straddled my hips, rubbing them together causing me to give an embarrassing whimper.

 

“Yu, can I tell you something that’ll probably surprise you?” he asked.

 

“What?”

 

“I’ve actually done this before.” He said, his cheeks flaming. I stared at him. He hooked up with another person while we were away!? I felt a weird pressure on my chest as I stared up at him.

 

“When?”

 

“I should’ve told you. You were right all those years ago. I didn’t just give the noble blood.” He whispered. I gaped at him.

 

“M-Mika. . .”

 

“But that means I can guide you.  I know how to be gentle too. He was never gentle with me so I know when something is gonna hurt.” He smiled. I nodded remembering the ‘pain’ the fanfiction characters experienced. It made me scared.

 

“How big are you?” I asked timidly. He looked confused then got the hint.

 

“Don’t worry, honey, I’m not big at all.” He said, his cheeks heating. I chuckled out of relief. I wasn’t big either.

 

“Are you really ready to do this?” he asked. I thought about it. Was I really ready to have sex with a guy? I’m only like, seventeen. Plus, it’s kinda like we just met yesterday. I could feel the nervousness radiating off of Mika’s body and it mixed with mine; he wasn’t so sure either.

 

“I want to. . .” I started.

 

“But it’s a little quick. . .” he finished. I nodded.

 

“Maybe we should wait.” I said. Then I was hit with utter regret. My body wanted it, but my mind didn’t.

 

“But I don’t want to. . .” muttered Mika.

 

“Neither do I. fuck it. Let’s do it.” I said and pulled him down and we kissed passionately. He sighed against my lips and took his pinky finger and tugged down my jeans. I squeaked a little at the action but he smiled and kissed down my torso. He licked around my nipples with his cold tongue making me cry out.

 

“Did I hurt you?” he asked frantically. I shook my head ‘no.’ he nodded again and continued until he reached the top of my underwear. I squeezed my eyes shut as he pulled them down, revealing me to him. He flicked the tip with his finger and took it in his hand.

 

“Gah, huh!” I moaned. He continued until I felt something building up.

 

“M-Mika. . .I feel like I’m gonna explode!” I warned. He chuckled.

 

“That’s natural. Try and keep it in as long as you can though.” He said and I groaned as it hurt to hold it in.

 

“I can’t hold it. . .!” I said and he sighed, wiping some of it off his stomach.

 

“Messy.” He snarled but focused back on my lips which felt nice. And I also knew this was just the beginning.

 

He took both my thighs and spread them wide. He unzipped his pants and took his underwear down and I saw him. he was right, to my relief. It wasn’t big. That didn’t bother me though. Sweat rolled down my face and my face felt sunburnt.

 

“Ready?” he asked. I nodded, bracing myself as he went for it. He missed.

 

“S-sorry. God this is embarrassing. I’ve never been top before. . .” he said and tried again. He didn’t miss again. I felt the impact and screamed a mixture of his name, a moan, a groan, a cry, and a sort of muffled ‘ow.’

 

“Ow, you’re so tight. It feels like you’re squeezing me on purpose. You need to relax.” He said and I was the one hurting him.

 

“S-sorry.” I muttered and tried to calm myself somewhat. It worked. He went in and out of me, the pain turning into pleasure. It did hurt, of course it hurt, but it also felt wonderful.

 

“Y-Yu, I’m gonna. . .” and by the pained, hoarse sound of his voice, I knew what he was going through.

 

“Do you want to take it or me gahh!” he whimpered as hot liquid filled me. he fell on top of me out of exhaustion and kissed me again, cupping my face and me feeling his shoulder blades. I bit his lip playfully and a drop of blood erupted on the surface.

 

“Oh, god, I’m so sorry!” I said and wiped it off with my finger. He then took my finger and licked it.

 

“Thank, Yu-chan. That was amazing.” He said and fell asleep on my chest.

 

4.

 

I woke to the soft feeling of early morning. That little feeling of wanting to stay wrapped in your warm burrito but knowing you have to get up. I sighed, opening my eyes full to the dim morning light. The sun wasn’t up yet and I yawned loudly, stretching my arms. I hit the spot next to me and almost apologized to Mika when I realized he wasn’t with me. Ah well. I guess that’s just how it is. I yawned again and looked around at the destroyed living room. Shit. The couch was a mess with the pillows strewn all over the room and my coffee table was on it’s side, magazines and coasters littering the floor. I sat up and groaned when my hips retorted angrily but I ignored it and stood up horribly, wrapping a blanket around my naked body. I walked into the bathroom and noticed dark rings under my eyes.  I sighed and got dressed, wandering to the kitchen my stomach growling. There was a beagle on the counter with a small glass of orange juice and a note.

 

Thought you might be hungry

 

-Mika

XOXOXOXOXO

 

I smiled at the note and all the little ‘X’s’ and ‘O’s’ and chewed a piece off the beagle. Then I heard a large knock on my door and Shinoa, Kimizuki, Mitsuba, and Yoichi came through my door excusing themselves for their interruption.

 

I choked lightly on the beagle and shoved the note in my back pocket.

 

“What the hell happened in here?” questioned Mitsuba. She picked up my disregarded shirt from last night and gave me a look.

 

“Yu-san, did you meet up with Mika again last night?” quizzed Shinoa, her hands behind her back and inching towards me.

 

“Y-yeah . . .why. . . ?” I asked, pulling my coffee table into a proper position.

 

“Are you and Mika. . .together?” gasped Shinoa. Many things happened at that moment. Yoichi who had been sipping coffee spewing all over my wall, Mitsuba tripped and fell on Kimizuki who was pulling eggs out of my fridge, Kimizuki fell, spilling the eggs all over my floor and I dropped the coffee table creating a large crash.

 

“Are you crazy!? That’s his brother! That’s incest!” cried Mitsuba.

 

“Not blood related.” Noted Shinoa and I stacked up the magazines, my face heating to it’s full level of blush.

 

“We aren’t together!” I shouted and everyone was silent.

 

“We were teasing you, Yu. Chill.” Frowned Kimizuki, whisking eggs.

 

“Anyway, why are you all here so early?” I snapped and Shinoa sighed, sitting down on my couch.

 

“Can’t we just come see how you’re doing? None of us had a nightmare that nearly broke our sanity.” Snapped Mitsuba and I sighed.

 

“I guess you’re right.”

 

“Actually, Guren told us to keep an eye on you.” Explained Kimizuki, serving everyone a bit of egg he’d made.

 

“Well that’s. . . nice of him.” I pointed out, munching on the egg.

 

“So when do we get to meet this mysterious Mika?” asked Shinoa, as I sat next to her on the couch.

 

“Hm? Oh, um, I guess I could call him to come up here for lunch –“

 

“Perfect!” she said clapping her hands and I went and retrieved my phone. I put a finger to my lips to silence everyone and waiting. Three rings went by until a sleepy sounding Mika answered the phone.

 

“Morning, my angel. How was sleep? When I left, you were passed out.” He slurred obviously trying to recover from sleep.

 

“I slept fine. I hope you got back alright. No trouble with Ferid?” I asked.

 

“Nope. I told him I partied with some woman at a bar and killed them all afterwards.” He said. “So what’s up? I know you didn’t just call me to hear my voice.”

 

“Hah, as much as I’d like that to be true, I did call you for a reason. The squad wants to meet you. Wanna meet up for lunch? Today, noon, my place?” I asked, suddenly nervous.

 

“Oooo! Did you just ask me out on an indirect date, Yu-chan!?” cried Mika.

 

“I guess . . “

 

“And do they know we’re dating?” he asked.

 

“Uh. . .no.”

 

“YUUUUUUUUUUU! WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL THEM!?” cried Mika and I had to hold the phone a little bit away from my ear while he yelled.

 

“S-sorry! I guess if. . .well. . .I could tell them at lunch –“

 

“Perfect! I’ll be there! see you soon!” he said. “Oh and by the way. . .I miss you.” He muttered, intimately.

 

“You too. See you there.” I said and hung up.

 

X

 

I walked around my apartment, officially cleaning everything up from last night. The squad had gone back to their houses to bring something to add to our small lunch and it was nearing noon. Personally, I was sweating and nervous cause. . .well. . .what if something happened with Mika? What if the squad didn’t except him or. . .me being gay? It’s obvious, too obvious, both Mitsuba and Shinoa have a crush on me and maybe even Kimizuki and Yoichi for all I know. I just hope it doesn’t come as too much of a shock.

 

I sighed, wiping sweat from my forehead and looked at myself in the mirror. I had gotten my hair as under control as possible, I wore my nicest little sweater vest I owned which was a light blue one that brought out the green in my eyes with tight dark jeans and sneakers. My expression wasn’t tired nor gloomy anymore but happy and nervous slightly and my eyes glowed with passion. I was lost in thought so much that I almost didn’t hear the doorbell. I walked to the door and opened it up to see a grinning Mika.

 

“Yay! I wanted to the first one here!” he cried, handing me a tin.

 

“What’s this?”

 

“Brownies! I made them myself!” he said blushing, his finger scratching his blushing cheek nervously. Goddamn he was cute.

 

“Come on inside. Everyone else should be here soon so get comfortable.” I said carrying the brownie tin over to the counter and undid the lid. A beautiful smell invaded my senses and I smiled.

 

“These brownies smell amazing!” I said and he giggled.

 

“I’m glad you like them.” He said and spun me around to kiss me. I smiled against his lips and my fingers raked through his soft blonde curls. He broke away at the sound of a doorbell and he smiled.

 

“I think that’s for you.” He whispered and I stepped away to answer it, revealing a smiling Yoichi.

 

“Hey, Yu-kun! I brought strawberries! I grow them fresh actually on my windowsill.” He said and handed me to the box of strawberries.

 

“Cool. Come on in.” I said and he took off his shoes, bowed and came in.

 

“It looks a lot nicer than it did this morn – huh. . .’ he said noticing Mika, sitting on the couch, flipping through one of my manga books.

 

“Oh, hey. I’m Mikaela.” He said and Yoichi smiled.

 

“H-hi. I’m Yoichi, nice to meet you.” Smiled the brunette and Mika smiled back. The next doorbell belonged to Shinoa and Mitsuba who were both arguing on who’s dishes were better.

 

“Why would you bring a salad!? Salads are boring!” cried Mitsuba, already furious.

 

“I don’t think pasta is any better.” Argued Shinoa and that’s when I cleared my throat and let them in.

 

“Oh are you Mikaela?” asked Shinoa and Mika nodded and they shook hands. A little bit later, Kimizuki entered carrying a lovely box of sandwiches and about a couple minutes later, we all had tea and were talking softly.

 

“So, Mika-kun, you’re Yu-san’s brother?” asked Shinoa and Mika nodded.

 

“We grew up together since we were six when he came to the orphanage. Then when we got taken to the vampire city, we remained friends until we got separated. I’m a vampire now, but no need to be afraid. I’ve only had animal blood, that’s why I still age.”

 

“What? I thought I gave you human blood yesterday.” I said confused.

 

“Nah, that was rat blood. You got it from the hospital right? It was probably close to the labs.” He inclined and I nodded.

 

“Anyone up for sandwiches?” I asked and I served them. Twenty minutes later of good food, small talk, and soft K-pop playing the background, I nudged Mika and he nodded.

 

“Hey guys? Can I talk about something serious for a minute?” I asked. That silenced everyone and suddenly everyone’s eyes were on me. I gulped down the large lump in my throat and grabbed Mika’s hand for comfort.

 

“I know you may think it’s wrong, you may think it’s not right, but Mika and I are together.” I blurted. Everyone stared until Shinoa stood up screamed ‘YES!’ we all looked at her.

 

“I knew it! I totally called it!” she cried and we all laughed at her.

 

“I-I’m happy for you two.” Muttered Mitsuba, blushing. “I-I gotta go. see you tomorrow.” She muttered and left. Wow.

 

“Yay! I’m so happy!” cried Yoichi and I smiled as he hugged me and Mika. After talking to Shinoa, I made her follow Mitsuba and Kimizuki and Yoichi decided to leave after that.

 

“They’re a nice group.” Mika said smiling, helping me with dishes.

 

“Yeah, they’re pretty cool.” I responded. I turned on the faucet and I didn’t notice Mika’s arm and the water sprayed over it. Istead of gasping from getting sprayed with water though, he cried out in. . .pain!? I watching him fall to the ground, gripping his arm and I knelt beside him.

 

“Mika. . .”

 

“Don’t look!” he shouted but I had already started to lift his sleeve. Under it, was a series of long red marks, burning from the water. whip marks.

 

“What . . .did you lie to me!? Did Ferid hurt you!?” I shouted at him and he looked at the floor.

 

“I’m sorry –“

 

“Sorry doesn’t cut it! Why would you lie to me!?” I cried and he shoved his sleeve back down.

 

“I didn’t want you to worry like always.” He muttered and I clicked my tongue.

 

“Cut the crap, Mika! That’s so retarded! I don’t worry –“

 

“The way you’re raising your voice now!? You’re worried about me!” he shouted, tears pouring out of his eyes. I was? Was I worried? Maybe I was.

 

“I just don’t like you being hurt.” I muttered. “It makes me hurt to see you hurt. And I want to punish anyone who touches you like that. Anyone who touches you that isn’t me.”

 

“Ferid did do this. He asked why I was so late and when he knew I was lying, he started whip me. Yelling at me how I’m a failure at a vampire and how I’ll never be able to save you cause I’m weak. . .” he said and he clenched his fists.  I placed my hand on his fist and he looked up at me. the sun was setting now, setting the perfect light in my little kitchen.

 

Sitting on the floor of an apartment in the middle of Japan was a vampire and a human. The vampire was gorgeous with blonde locks and the human was equally as beautiful with raven hair and emerald eyes. And they sat wrapped in each other’s tear covered kiss, hands intertwined, reassuring each other that they were safe and they were both okay. The vampire with little cuts on his arms and the human with a black heart were able to share so much love in that little kitchen in Japan that even the cold floor was heated. The setting sun that came flooding in from the large window set the perfect background for the two forbidden lovers.

 

A vampire with scars and tears.

 

A human with a black heart and fierce eyes.

 

A forbidden love.

 

We broke the barrier.

 

And out spewed darkness.

 

A/N

 

I was literally working on this for like a week –

Mika: hey, Writer-sama!?

Me: * pocky falls from mouth * hm? Me?

Mika: yes you. What the hell was all that forbidden love bullshit!?

Me: oh my god, not another character yelling at me. . .look, I already have Ciel and Eren complaining at me, just go back to your fanfiction universe or something

Mika: whatever. I’ll be back

Well that was. . .creepy

 

Anyway, so yeah. The bottom line is, don’t listen to K-Pop while working! You get distracted if you’re into K-Pop. Ugh. I never get anything done.

 

Hope you’re satisfied.

omg that moment when you finally finish a story and you feel so happy and that means you can update your other ten thousand stories more!? And when you realize that another SeraPH OF TH END EPISODE IS GONNA COME OUT THE NEXT DAY!? Yeah. So those are my reasons for updating. And I’m kinda obsessed with this ship.

 

We broke apart only for us to come back together again in another tasteful kiss of wanting fire. Our passion never failed to amaze me. it was always there and I had a feeling it wasn’t leaving.

 

“Y-Yu, what are we going to do?” asked Mika, his eyes pouring out salty tears. He placed his head down on my shoulder and I placed my hand on top of his head.

 

“We’re going to do what we do best. We’re gonna stay together, as a family, and protect each other. I’m not going to let that noble bastard place another filthy hand on you again or so help me –“

 

“I’ll be fine, Yu-chan. Don’t worry about Ferid I’ll handle it myself.” Mika said softly against my shoulder. I shook my head.

 

“No. you aren’t going back to that retched place. You’re staying with me. where I can protect you. I-I don’t want you getting hurt again.” Oh god. Here come the waterworks. Damn it, and here I was thinking I’d be able to hold it together. I held him as we both broke down. This wasn’t how I wanted it to be. I wanted him to be safe. I wanted to live in a world where we could be together in peace. But I knew that just wasn’t possible.

 

“C-can I? I mean, stay here, with you?” asked Mika, lifting his tear streaked face to look at me. I nodded, and ran my fingers down his jawbone. I leaned forwards and locked out lips. It was slow. Slow and beautiful. Our eyes sliding shut, the rays of the setting sun coming in through the spaces between us, the light making our tears look like star dust. My fingertips grazing his cheek, cupping his perfect face in my hands and his own hands tracing my shoulders and back bones. He wrapped his arms around my little body and scooped me up onto his lap and pressed out bodies together. I wanted to say I loved him. But did I?

 

Did I want to stay like this forever?  Yes.

Did he make me feel like I was floating? Yes.

 

Did I want him to be mine? Yes.

 

Then it’s official.

 

I love him.

 

I love Mika.

 

“Mika. . .” I whispered. I needed to tell him. I wanted to. I wanted to tell him I loved him. he opened his eyes and smiled.

 

“Yes?”

 

“I-I love you!” I blurted and slapped my hands over my mouth. He stared at me and smiled, little blushes appearing on his cheeks. He leaned forward and hugged me, burying his face in my chest.

 

“I love you, too, Yu.” Smiled Mika. He lifted his face as I removed my hands from my face and they rested on his shoulders. He touched my face with his hand and gave me the stunning smile of his and I smiled back. Utterly worn out from our day, we decided to go to bed. I walked us into my room where the lights were still off and he kissed me softly and I fell back onto my bed, forcing him to limply sprawl on top of me and he slid his hands under my shirt. He threw it aside and I took my hands and removed his, undoing the cute buttons on his shirt and twirling it around playfully before throwing it into the corner.

 

I undid his pants next. I wasn’t afraid this time. I wasn’t even nervous. I was with someone I loved. Someone I could trust and was comfortable with. I scooted myself back on the bed, spreading my naked legs apart and was met with sweet pleasure. Of course, my eyes shot closed and I whimpered but that was only because it was my second time. My hands gripped the bed sheets and my mouth curved into another cheek burning whimper.

 

“If it’s too much, and you’re too tired –“ but I was gasping for breath as he pumped faster. He was building up. It was tighter in my hole and with a cringe, I felt it squirt up inside me.

 

“Please . . .take care of my boner, I cried as little tears of distress appeared at the corners of my eyes. He smiled and gladly took me in his hands and pumped. I moaned and groaned. How could I experience so much pleasure out of one person. This shouldn’t be possible. But it was. My moans instensified as I built up.

 

“M-Mika, ngah!” I whimpered as I cumed into his hands.

 

“I’m s-sorry.” I panted but he shook his head and pinned our entertwined hands above my head and moved his lips on mine with a sort of throbbing desire. A desire of my heart. I moved my tongue in and out of his mouth and hummed contently against them, as he collapsed against my bare chest. I was the first to shower, he was the second and after we’d cleaned ourselves up, we sat in my bed, listening to the soft sounds of Clare De Lune. I laid down on my pillow and he followed suit, spooning me. I sighed. This was nice. Warm. Fluffy. Amazing. That’s how I felt. I was also tired.

 

“Goodnight.” I muttered to Mika. “I love you.”

 

“Nmm, love you too.” And he fell asleep.

 

A/N

 

Fluffy chapter.

 

Hehe, I was bored and wanted to update this story. I love this ship too much too. And I was legit crying when I wrote that really sweet make out scene at the beginning.

 

 

A/N

So if you’re a hard core Seraph of the End fan like myself then you’ve probably seen the new episode that came out today. It you haven’t, skip this authors note. Anyway, so when Yu was calling out to Mika from across the battlefield, he was crying and BLUSHING. They were both BLUSHING. Literally, if it doesn’t go cannon, I will throw myself into oblivion and you won’t see me for thousands of years.

 

Derp.

 

Sooooo on to the chapter.

“Yu . . .” mumbled a sleepy voice over the loud sound of something annoying. But frankly, I wasn’t feeling like getting up so I just let it pass. I listened while I heard Mika get up and out the door.

 

“Hello?” I heard him slur sleepily and another voice, sweeter than any of my friends, answered him.

 

“Oh. I didn’t know Yuichiro had a roommate.” Said the voice.

 

“Oh I’m his boyfriend.” Said Mika.

 

“O-oh. Boyfriend. Right. Um, I was coming up here to give him these. You know, hoping he feels better.” Said the voice.

 

“Um, hold on. Yu-chan!? Some lady’s here to give you something!” called Mika and I groaned and slid out of bed. Scratching my head annoyingly, I entered the living room and found Mika standing with my downstairs neighbor. Great.

 

“Oh, morning Ms. Yuki.” I answered sleepily and stood next to Mika at the door.

 

“Morning, Yuichiro. We made you these, hoping you were better from the night before.” She smiled.

 

“The night before –?“ started Mika.

 

“Oh thank you. I’m actually a lot better.” I smiled.

 

“Oh that’s wonderful to hear! I hope you like them!” she said handing me a tin of cupcakes. Mika closed the door then and shot me a confused look.

 

“When were you sick?” asked Mika.

 

“I . . .it’s no big deal. Let it go.” I answered and put the cupcakes in the fridge. I didn’t feel like telling him about the nightmare.

 

“Yu . . .” mumbled Mika, coming up from behind me and wrapping his arms around me.

 

“I’m not telling you.”

 

“Why not?”

 

“Cause you’re gonna freak out.”

 

“I won’t.”

 

“Yes you will.”

 

“No, I won’t.”

 

I sighed. There was no way I was getting out of this argument alive.

 

“I had a nightmare awhile back about you. I was in an ocean, drowning and you were trying to save me but I kept sinking. I was calling out for you but you couldn’t reach me and then I woke up to see Shinoa and Yoichi standing over my bed. And that’s the first time I broke down over you. I cried for maybe an hour after passing out again in front of the neighbors and having to go to the hospital. It’s fine. I’m fine. Don’t work it up anymore than it needs to be.” I answered shortly and he was staring at me.

 

“I wish I could’ve saved you then. I’m sorry.” He whispered, pressing his face into my shoulder blades.

 

“There’s nothing you could’ve done.” I muttered and he nodded.

 

“Can we make out now?” he asked and I laughed as he spun me around. He crashed our lips together and slid his hands through my hair, pressing me up against the counter. When he was done, he pecked me on the lips and stepped away.

 

“Go get dressed. I’m guessing you have to report somewhere.” Smiled Mika, starting the coffee machine. I nodded and slipped off towards my bedroom. I started dressing and was nearly done brushing my teeth when I heard my front door break open and Mika shouting.

 

“Grab him!” screamed an angry voice.

 

“Yu-cha –“ it was cut off and I turned around and raced back to the kitchen just in time for two strong arms to capture me.

 

“Let me go!” I shouted but nothing happened. I saw Mika struggling heavily against the masked man holding him, one hand over his mouth as he screamed my name, muffled by his hand. Then he sniffed and his eyes rolled back into his head, his body going limp.

 

“MIKA –“ and that’s when I got the drug as well and the world tipped, and fell into darkness.

 

X

 

I woke up, my whole body feeling like it had been thrown down a flight of stairs and hit by a truck. My mouth was gagged and my hands tied behind my back attaching me to a large cement pole. My eyes blinked in the dark area and I got a look at my surroundings. A prison cell. What? I blinked and could see Mika, on his side, a large metal chain wrapped around his neck. Along where the chain was or had touched his neck were long red burn marks, darkening into a sinister purple as he moaned against his gag.

 

“Mmkwa.” I managed to get out around the cloth in my mouth. He looked up then, his eyes bloodshot. He mumbled something that sounded like my name and the large metal door came crashing open. A large man in a black mask entered laughing.

 

“Haha. Look who’s awake. Come on, you two. They want to see ya.” Said the man and suddenly my chains were being moved around my burning wrists. I cried out slightly as Mika was yanked angrily by the chain around his neck and brought to his feet. After that, we were walked, Mika dragged, to another room that was similar to a court room. In front stood Guren, and a small woman with long pink hair. Ferid stood there too, smirking at us, and so was my entire squad. Then, we were sat, Mika thrown, onto the floor. Mika couldn’t move. He just laid there on his face, moaning against the gag. I was sat on my knees, the metal handcuffs digging into my skin.

 

“Yuichiro and Mikaela Hyakuya. You have been brought to us, the Moon Demon Company of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army and Queen Krul, of Seraph of the End vampire program on information on your . . .relationship.” started Guren and I gritted my teeth as they removed the gag from my mouth. I gasped for breath and licked around my dry mouth.

 

“We were told by an anonymous source that the two of you shared a more . . . intimate relationship. Is that true?” asked Krul, the woman with pink hair.

 

“Yes.” I choked out. How could anyone else know? We only told my squad and Ferid knew. My neighbor didn’t know Mika was a vampire or she would’ve freaked. Someone told. But who?

 

“You are aware that a vampire like Mikaela and a human like yourself can never share more than an enemy feud –“

 

“I love Mika. I don’t really care about stupid vampire human hatred or whatever. I’m in love with Mika and there’s nothing you can say that’ll break us apart.” I shouted at her. she sighed.

 

“Teenagers and their first loves. It’s quite gross to think about it, really.” growled Guren. I clicked my tongue in annoyance.

 

“My request, Yuichiro, is for you two to put aside your petty feelings for each other and go your separate ways. It’ll never work out, dear. It just isn’t meant to be.” Shrugged Krul and Mika started squirming.

 

“Take the gag off poor Mikaela.” Suggested Krul and the piece of cloth was removed from Mika’s mouth.

 

“How can you possibly understand what we’re going through!?” shouted Mika.

 

“I’ve been in love before, dear Mika-kun. I know what it feels like. And I don’t believe you and Yuichiro can hold a healthy relationship considering your races.”

 

“So what? How can you stop me from seeing him? how can you possibly monitor me when I’m supposed to be on the front lines fighting his squad?” asked Mika. Krul smirked.

 

“We’ll lock you up. Yuichiro too. Simple as that. We’ll change your ideas of love.” Smiled Krul and I saw Shinoa gripping the wooden railing.

 

“Don’t touch Yu!” shouted Shinoa and immediately slapped a hand over her mouth.

 

“Take them out of my sight. Their love disgusts me.” snapped Krul and I felt the two men start moving me.

 

“Oh! Let them have one minute to say goodbye.” Shouted Krul, sitting back down. The two men threw me towards him and my handcuffs were removed to my ankles. With my hands free I grabbed for Mika who grabbed for me and our lips collided in utter bliss. Our last kiss. I could feel my own tears dripping down my face and Mika’s tears landing in my lap.

 

“Hold still. I’m gonna save you, no matter what.” Whispered Mika and suddenly, everything moved in slow motion. I felt Mika turn his head to the side, I save Krul and Guren along with the rest of my squad jump slowly from their seats, screaming. The next thing I felt was my eyes widening as I felt two, sharp pins in the side of my neck.

 

Mika bit me.

 

TO BE CONTINUED.

 

I love cliffhangers. Don’t you? Wow that was a fun chapter. My Chemical Romance, my computer, some crisps, and my pajamas. It was the perfect atmosphere for writing a tragic chapter.

_________

pain.

 

That was the first thing that hit me. It hurt so bad. It felt like a thousand knives were piercing my skin at the same time. Mika held on tight to me as he got his first taste of human blood. My throat, since it was the target of injury, was making no noise except little sounds that came from the internal screaming. Now everyone was trying to pry Mika from me but he wasn’t letting go. The next thing I felt was shock. I felt my heart breaking in half at the betrayal. Of course, I didn’t know at that time what he was doing. All I was thinking was ‘OMG MIKA’S BITING ME!’ so I didn’t really think about his intentions.

 

The blackness was starting to form around the edges of my vision and the world was tipping left to right making me feel sick. I felt my own hot sticky blood sliding down my neck and pooling in the folds of my uniform. I felt Mika hum and moan against my neck as he kept sucking. His moans turned into whimpers as he clutched me tighter and tighter.

 

“ . . .We’re loosing him! He’s draining him!” cried a voice from the darkness and then, the world was gone.

 

I was now face to face with Asuramaru. She stood there, her hair all around her grinning.

 

“Well this is a predicament. Mikaela bit you. He’s killing you. What shall we do now?” asked Asuramaru. I blinked. He wasn’t trying to kill me, was he? She snapped her fingers and suddenly I was standing over myself. I was really pale and limp in Mika’s arms as he continued to drink the life out of me. Shinoa was screaming and shaking me while Yoichi stood with Kimizuki in complete awe. Guren was working with Ferid to try and get Mika to stop and Krul was standing shocked and shouting arguments with Mitsuba.

 

“You’re still in control of your body. Time to decide what to do.” She said smiling and she snapped her fingers again, showing me to a pair of doors. One had the words OPEN EYES AND FEEL PAIN and the other had CONTINUE. Well, I didn’t really want to feel any pain so I opened the continue door.

 

“Good. If you had chosen the other door, the pain would’ve killed you almost instantly.” Snarled Asuramaru in my ear. Then I was met with two stair cases. One said REACH PAST MEMORIES OF FAMILY TO CALM THE SHOCK and the other said REACH PAST MEMORIES OF MIKAELA HYAKUYA TO CALM THE SHOCK. I immediately chose Mika and ran up the stairs.

 

“Again, amazing choice. The memories of your family would’ve caused even more trauma and you again would’ve died almost immediately. Now use the memories of Mika to try and calm yourself.” She said and I was suddenly in our old house. Mika was sitting against the wall, with his sketch pad and smiled up at me.

 

“Yu-chan. Come over here and help me with this drawing.” He asked and I nodded and sat next to him. Mika always had a sort of talent for art. Dancing, drawing, playing music, singing. He loved everything about it. I watched as his slender fingers as they held tightly to the pencil as he drew delicate stands of hair.

 

He was drawing me.

 

“Why do you need my help? It’s perfect the way it is.” I said. He smiled.

 

“Because I need to get it exactly right. And I need your face to do that, of course.” He said and studied my features before drawing my eyes. When he was finishing he yawned and rubbed his eyes.

 

“All this drawing makes you tired . . .” he started and softly laid his head on my shoulder, drifting to sleep mumbling ‘Yu-chan . . .’ and he was out. I was snapped out of my ten year old body then to stare at me lay my own head on top of his and intertwine our hands.  

 

“Don’t worry, Mika. I’ll watch over you while you sleep and kill any vampire that tries to hurt you.” I whispered to him and then I fell asleep as well.

 

I was yanked softly from the memory as it faded into a white mist and I saw Asuramaru again. She smiled at me and wiped the small tears cascading down my cheeks and then frowned.

 

“Time to keep moving. I won’t let you die this easily, Yuichiro.” She said and she guided me along.

 

I ran along the corridors and was finally faced with two ladders. One said GO INTO SMALL COMA FOR 8 DAYS AND NEVER SEE MIKA AGAIN and the other said WAKE UP NOW, ENDURING HORRIBLE PAIN BUT SURVIING ENOUGH FOR MIKA TO GRAB YOU AND ESCAPE. I nervously took the second ladder and looked back at Asuramaru who was staring at me.

 

“Go.” she answered and I grinned, and dashed up the ladder.

 

I opened my eyes then and it seemed like no time had passed. Mika was still moaning and gripping me but this time my throat was open and I let out a blood curling scream that echoed through the hall.

 

Scream more! He needs to know you’re dying!

 

Whispered a tiny voice in my ear and I screamed more and more as the squad tried even harder to release me from his grip. When I thought my voice was going to give out, Mika’s eyes burst open and they widened with shock. He then released me and with a snarl picked me up in his arms and we dashed away. I wasn’t screamed as bad anymore just groans of pain and the usual dying noises. It wasn’t long before I could feel the cool wind of the outside world on my face and I heard it again;

 

You can sleep now. You’ve survived. Good luck, Yu-san.

 

I closed my eyes then and I slipped off.

 

(oh wait. There’s even more :)

 

when I reopened them again, I was lying in a soft bed, blankets piled on top of me. I could hear someone in the room and I blinked to see Mika searching through a closet.

 

“Mika . . .” I said and he turned around and rushed over to me.

 

“Oh thank god. I thought . . .well, I’m glad you’re better. We’re at Mitsuba’s place. Your squad agreed to hide us here until they could clear it up with Krul and Guren. We have you hooked up to a blood sack so don’t move too much. You’re still so pale –“

 

“It’s your fault. If you hadn’t nearly killed me, then I wouldn’t be so fucking pale!” I shouted at him.

 

“He didn’t for you, baka. If he hadn’t done anything, you two would’ve been dead. You honestly don’t know what Guren and Krul do with traitors, do you?” growled Mitsuba. I blinked and looked back at Mika who nodded.

 

“You did it, for me?” I asked him. he nodded and leaned forward to kiss me.

 

“Ewe. If I had known this would turn into a make out session I wouldn’t have come to see if you were awake.” Snapped Mitsuba blushed and ran from the room. I then let that kiss swallow me up and drag me under, letting my mouth loose and hands wonder through his hair.

 

“I love you so much.” He whimpered against my mouth and I licked his mouth as it opened in a gasp.

 

“I love you too. I will never stop loving you. Don’t you ever think that for one minute I would leave you.” I whispered into his cheek as he kissed down my jawbone. He then proceeded to lay me down when we heard a pop.

 

“Fuck the IV!” he screeched as he struggled to sit back up and stick it back in me (innuendo much?) I shook my head and grabbed the back of his neck, pulling him back down on me.

 

“Who gives a damn about some dumb IV?” I moaned into his mouth as we met again in a blur of passion.

 

“I do.” He whimpered, clutching at my night shirt. “But I guess I could not care for a little bit.” He then straddled my hips and pressed my down against the bed. I grabbed at his hair and licked around his lips, gathering the sweat beads running down his face.

 

“Your entire squad is in the living room. Not right now, love.” Muttered Mika as I tried to take his shirt off. I whined as he stopped kissing me and pouted.

 

“I will only kiss you if you promise two things; one, I can put the IV back in, and two, if you can control yourself.” He said and I promised as he stuck the IV back in. I grunted at the contact as he grabbed me again and clashed our lips together.

 

“Hey lovebirds! Shinoa made tea. Be nice and come out to drink some.” Called Mitsuba and we both sighed. Mika got off me and handed me my cloths as he took out the IV.

 

“I don’t really think you need it anymore.” Smiled Mika as I got dressed. I walked out to the living room and had tea with everyone.

 

Overall it was a pretty good day.

 

A/N

Omg so I was writing this and was at the ‘I walked out to the living room and –‘ and then my friend Jess was like ‘here, watch this video it’ll make you cry’ so me being a fucking robot and thinking ‘I’m not gonna cry’, I go and click on the link and it takes me to a fucking Dan x Phil video and then I’m sobbing for ten minutes afterwards so I couldn’t really think of anything more to write. So sorry for the lack of ending but ye. If you want to go watch the video it’s the one at the beginning or if it doesn’t work it’s called ‘Phan / arms’ by uncharacteristically-Average-xo.

 

Hello friends! So after my depression from Your Lie in April and my three day vacation without wifi ( never again ) I’m back! I hope all you Americans had a wonderful Fourth of July – I know I did! – and if you aren’t American then well, I hope you had a nice weekend. Anyway, so yes I will continue with the update.

 

I woke up feeling like shit, my neck aching like a bitch. I rolled over to see Mika asleep beside me, laying on his stomach with his face squished into the pillow. I sighed and got up, swinging my legs over the side. I went to stand up but my knees buckled and I face planted.

 

“Nm, Yu-chan?” yawned Mika, sitting up. I rolled over on my side, rubbing my pounding head and soar neck.

 

“My head hurts . . . “I mumble as the room spins. Mika jumps out of bed and runs over to me, putting his hand on my shoulder.

 

“Let’s get you back in bed.” he starts but I put a hand up and try and stand on my own. Black spots erupt over my vision and my stomach bounces angrily in me so I decide to stumble back on the bed where my vision starts to fade again.

 

“Just go back to sleep . . .” he says and I doze off.

 

I open my eyes to see Asuramaru smiling.

 

“Hey. I wanted to show you something. Stay quiet.” She says and I’m suddenly in a dark room with a long meeting table in the middle. Guren sits at one end with Shinoa and Krul sits at the other with Ferid.

 

“Explain to me one more time about Hyakuya-kun’s . . .condition.” sighed Guren. Krul growled angrily, clearly annoyed.

 

“He’s dangerous to be around humans. It’ll only enrage the demon inside of him. lend him to us and we’ll protect him –“

 

“Not in a million years. Yuichiro-san is our property.” Snaps Guren. I hated being refered to as ‘properly’ but was okay with Guren sticking up for me.

 

“Feeling fatherly, aren’t we Guren?” snarled Ferid and Krul put up a warning hand.

 

“Do you care more about his insanity than his safety?” gasped Krul.

 

“Of course. We can protect him far better than you bloodsuckers could. You had control of him once but you let him slip through your fingertips. What makes you think you could control him again?” he asks.

 

“Go Guren!” I shout and Krul laughs.

 

“He was only a naïve child then. What makes you think we haven’t considered his desire to escape? We’ve set up advanced traps and cells just for him.”

 

“If you plan on protecting him, how will locking him up like a prisoner be any better?” asks Guren, folding his arms. Krul frowns.

 

“If he’s locked up, he’ll be safe!” shouted Krul, pounding her hands on the table causing it to shake.

 

“If he’s locked up, no, he’d die before that!” yelled Guren, standing up as well.

 

“He wouldn’t –“

 

“And besides! He’d never go anywhere without his precious boyfriend! If you want Yuichiro then get Mikaela!” argued Guren. Krul was silent and got the most evil grin on her face.

 

“That can be arranged.” She snarled and Asuramaru pulled me out of it.

 

“What are we going to do!? Mika’s in trouble –“

 

“Yu-san, calm down. All you have to do is stay with him. now wake up.” She urged and I closed my eyes. When I opened them again, I nearly wanted to fall back asleep.

 

The room was torn to shreds and there was blood all over the pillows where someone’s head had been bashed in. I sat up and noticed Mitsuba and Shinoa there.

 

“But you were just with Guren –“ I started at Shinoa and Mitsuba ran forward and embraced me.

 

“I’m so sorry, Yu. They took him. They took Mikaela.” She whispered in my ear, before my own sobbing replaced it.

 

I found out a little bit later that meeting was five hours ago.

 

And Mika was already with Ferid again.

 

 

HEY, HEY, HEY!

 

So yeah I forgot to update yesterday because we had a cook out and I was stuck cleaning all day so, yup. And OMG! 600+ followers on vine! Thanks guys! Wow that feels cool. Anyway, I almost have 500 reads on this story! Yay! Go MikaxYu!

 

Onto the story!

 

I sat in the cold room, my lips bleeding and cracked where I had bitten them. I couldn’t feel my eyes because of their swollen sockets, red and puffy. My fingers are clenched into a fist in front of me and my hair is falling in my eyes. Guren sat across from me, and glanced down at my scared fingers from where I had bitten the nails.

 

“You shouldn’t bite your fingernails.” He said softly and I numbly nodded. I didn’t need this.  Not now.

 

I focused my attention instead on Shinoa as she sat rather uncomfortably next to a tall red haired vampire who looked extremely boring. (this is a little bit OC but not too bad) the vampire glanced at me with menacing green eyes and smirked slightly.

 

I moved my eyes away from his and he looked grumpily away too. That’s when Krul entered the room, followed by Ferid.

 

“Krul. Great. Now I’m really worried.” Muttered the red haired vampire and I heard Shinoa snort. Krul cleared her throat and sat at the head of the table next to Ferid.

 

“We’re all here to discuss the disappearance of Mikaela Hyakuya. Yuichiro being his mate, and Ren being connected to a group who could be responsible.” Started Krul and I stared.

 

“You didn’t do it?” I asked, astonished.

 

“No. We did not take Mikaela.” Sighed Krul and Shinoa gasped.

 

“Then who did?” she asked.

 

“That is why we’ve called Ren here.” She said her eyes flickering to the red haired vampire who clicked his tongue.

 

“I have an idea.” He said, playing with a small scratch on the table. I raised an eyebrow.

 

“Vampires or humans?” I asked and he smiled.

 

“Vampires of course.” He said and sighed. “A while back when Mika and I were in the same division of ranks, and both being humans turned into vampires, I noticed a certain individual acting a bit suspicious. She then started a small group of followers. Not big, but not small and un-noticeable.” Started Ren.

 

“This was a woman? In your division?” asked Ferid.

 

“Yes. I don’t remember her name but she didn’t understand the relationship between Humans and Vampires. She thought that vampires had a right to kill humans because, well, that’s just how the food chain works.” Explained Ren. I nodded.

 

“So obviously she’d target Mika. Having a taboo, intimate relationship with a human.” I said, connecting things.

 

“Exactly. And don’t start to think it’s because of the Homosexuality. That is somewhat normal among vampires.” Ren said folding his arms. I nodded.

 

“Do you have any idea where she might be hiding?” asked Guren.

 

“Of course not. If I had known that I would’ve taken her down already. I want to find Mika as much as you do, Yuichiro.” Snapped Ren and I narrowed my eyes.

 

“Do you have any theories?” asked Shinoa and he shook his head.

 

“Well, I have some links to some clues but nothing more. Maybe someone helpful to talk to?” he said shrugging.

 

“Names. Is there anyone you could name in the group?” asked Guren and Ren’s eyes lite up and he started to laugh.

 

“Of course.” He said.

 

I leaned forward, hoping to hear a name that I might recognize or maybe someone I might have heard of. I needed to find Mika. Even if it cost me my life. And to think for even a second that it was someone else targeting him rather than someone I could easily take down or reason with, it scared me.

 

“Who is it? A noble?” asked Krul.

 

“You don’t get it yet do you.” Ren said, shaking with laughter. “Think about the reason of the group; Understanding the strange relationships between Vampires and Humans. Think.” He said looking directly at me.

 

“You know, Yu. I know you know.” He said softly.

 

But the truth was, I had no idea.

 

“Think. Someone who questions both societies. Someone who discourages relationships between them, yet breaks all the rules for it. Someone who hates vampires and humans. Someone . . . someone caught in the middle. Now who would that be?” asked Ren, his voice urging.

 

I struggled to think of someone. A vampire who hates vampires and humans? Someone who isn’t on either side? Someone who defies the rules between humans and vampires?

 

I froze.

 

“Spit it out, Yu. I can see you figured it out, haven’t you?” he asked, his eyes glowing. All eyes were on me now. Each one waiting for me to give the final answer to the mystery that could connect this whole thing.

 

I knew who it was.

 

I just didn’t want to believe it.

 

I swallowed against the growing knot in my throat and closed my eyes.

 

“The person . . .caught in the middle, you said? Well, that’d have to be a turned human. They’d hate vampires for taking away his freedom and he’d hate humans for what they did to him.” I took a breath in.

 

“It’s Mika.”

 

Bum, bum, bum!

 

Who knew our Mika was in some elite cult? Literally I just watched some Sherlock so I was all for the guessing game. And yeah, sorry about Ren being a little bit of OC there. Anyways, hoped you enjoyed the suspense.

 

Midnight

 

I’M SO SORRY I DIDN’T UPDATE SATURDAY LIKE I SAID I WOULD! My friend @ got me into Fairy Tail and I’ve literally watched 30 episodes in the past two days. I’ve been a little obsessed. So I was totally pushing this aside. But anyways, I’m back! Alright, chapter time.

 

“Mika!? How could it be Mika?” exclaimed Shinoa. “And you said that the person we guessed would help us find Mika!”

 

“I don’t know anyone else in the group. And plus, there’s a way we can get information from him even if we can’t talk to him in person.” Explained Ren but my head was still swimming.

 

“I’m still confused.” Snapped Shinoa.

 

“Mika is the person connected to this group. He was a member. After he learned Yu made it to the humans and what they intended to do with him, Mika turned his back on everything, humans and vampires alike. He met with the leader of the group and joined to try and get more information on Yu’s whereabouts. But she could offer him nothing more than he already knew himself. So he left. But he did stay long enough that the leader could have wanted to keep tabs on him, finding out his little secret with Yu. She probably blackmailed him for a while, urging him to join the group again, promising to keep his secret. He refused obviously and she took him.” Ren said.

 

 (I’m totally just making this up, so please don’t pull up something from the anime/manga and say something like ‘THAT’S WRONG!’ okay!?)

 

I could hear the soft breathing in the room of us humans as the silence took over our minds and left us to try and figure this out.

 

“You said we could get information about the group from Mika without talking to him in person. How do you intend on doing that?” asked Guren.

 

“The mail system.” Answered Krul. We stared at her.

 

“What –?“

 

“We have a mail system throughout the vampire city. It states each members contact numbers along with email addresses, house addresses, and stuff like that. It could easily tell us where the group had been meeting if it had a file, which is likely. If we find that, we may have a chance at finding Mika’s location.” Explained Ferid.

 

“That’s a very risky option.” Sighed Guren. “We don’t even know the group’s name, plus the fact that they may not even have a file available.”

 

“It was Apollo Eight (I don’t even know). I have no idea why they’re called that but I’m sure we can find it. No group like that wouldn’t have a mail line.” Sighed Ren.

 

“I’ll check tonight. Even if the information is classified, I can obviously get through.” Smiled Krul.

 

“Just so we’re clear, Krul. When all is said and done, we go back to deciding who gets Yu. Got it?” snapped Guren.

 

“Fine.” Growled Krul.

 

____

 

I sat on my bed, letting the IV cord flip over and under my fingers as new blood entered my body. One more night was all. And then my heart would be ready to pump full blood. I stared at the digital clock on my nightstand.

 

11:34 pm

 

I sighed and took the IV out and pushed it over to the corner of the room. I thought about going to sleep but my mind was racing. Krul would collect the file tonight and we would go into the city tomorrow to try and find their hiding place. I just needed Mika back. A slow aching pain was starting to rise in my chest and it felt as though someone was squeezing my heart. I couldn’t help but miss him. I could hear the girls had gone to bed and I wondered if I should turn on some lights if I intended to stay awake but I rather enjoyed the sense the darkness gave me.

 

No one could see me cry.

 

It was nearing midnight when I heard it. A tap on my window. I had the blinds closed and was sitting on my bed, tears streaming silently out so I couldn’t see what was causing it. It happened again and by then I was curious. So I opened my curtains.

 

My breath caught in my throat as my numb fingers unlocked the window and flung it open. He can tumbling on top of me, him arms gripped me to his chest while I stood, stunned, feeling hot tears roll down my cheeks as I felt that familiar shape press against my body.

 

“M-Mika?” I breathed.

 

“Yu.” He whimpered into my ear. His voice was full of sadness and worry and loneliness.

 

“W-why are you back? Where did you go? W –?”

 

“HOW COULD SHE!?” he screamed, holding me tighter.

 

“I don’t understand. Who –“

 

“SHE TOLD ME YOU WERE DEAD! She told me, she told . . .” his voice trailed into the moonlight and I pushed him a little off me and kissed him. It felt so amazing, having familiar lips on mine. I tangled my fingers in his hair and breathed in every one of his gasps. When we were finally out of breath, I placed my head on his chest and took in his scent.

 

“I went back because I thought you were dead. There was blood . . .and you weren’t moving . . .the girls were gone so I didn’t know what to do until she came and got me.” whispered Mika.

 

I remembered.

 

When I had woken up from the dream, there was blood on the pillows and Mika was gone. I had been sleeping.

 

“Mika, you were tricked. The woman? Did she make you go back to Apollo Eight?” I asked.

 

“She . . .she lied to me. All because she needs me for her stupid group –“

 

“Well, I’m obviously not dead you can relax. I’m here. I’m alive. I’m right here.” I whispered to him, holding the strain in my voice. He brought me back into another kiss, this one pushing me with all the passion in the world down on my bed. Soon he was topless in front of me, the open window projecting a beautiful star filled background behind him, causing the moonlight to seep through the spaces between his hair. He looked like an angel.

 

“I love you. I love you. I love you.” He kept repeating as he clutched me with all his might. “But I have to go again.” He said with such sadness it made me worry.

 

“You, what?” I asked. He was already buttoning his jacket.

 

“She’ll wonder where I’ve gone off to. I had to make sure you were alive, that’s all. I have a plan, Yu-chan. To take down her cult. She plans on using it’s political power to overcome Krul and take over. Their morals are that Humans are food to us. If they gain the power they need, every human will be slaughtered.” Sighed Mika.

 

“But –“

 

“I need you here. Protect my secret for me. I’ll handle this myself.” He said and kissed my forehead.

 

“I love you.” He whispered into my forehead, kissing it once more and disappeared through the light of the stars.

 

I hope that explained things. I’M ACTUALLY MAKING A PLOT! This is so exciting! Anyway, I also love little fluff scenes. Anyway, goodbye for now!

 

Hey hey!

 

Another update. I’m sorry for not updating yesterday – I bet you don’t even want the excuse anymore – but I was literally sick. We went to some antique mall and I was allergic to the dust. So yup. Here’s the update cause TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY. YAS! Anyway, time for the story.

 

I sat in front of Shinoa’s vanity mirror and flinched as I felt the pin come in contact with my scalp once again.

 

“Hold still!” she complained. I was currently under a serious makeover since we’d be entering the vampire city today. I hadn’t told them of my encounter with Mika. I couldn’t. So now I was getting a deep blue wig pinned to my head. I also had to wear fake fangs that would go over my teeth like a sort of cover. I was dressed in the vampire army uniform with it’s really gay thigh-high boots that hugged my legs so tight I wondered if they would ever come back off.

 

Once I was all dressed, I was escorted to the vampire city along with Shinoa, Guren, Ren, Krul, and Ferid. Mitsuba, Yoichi, and Kimizuki were mad about missing the action but we thought it better to not have too big of a party going. I stepped out of the jeep, fixing my burning contacts and walked along the corridor leading to the city.

 

“Alright. I’ve researched their file and our first guess would be the basement of the book store a couple streets over.” Said Krul as other vampires and human children walked around us. The children, I watched, seemed to stare at me as if I was wearing a rainbow scarf. The vampires as well looked at me like an albino (like me), but once seeing Krul with me, quickly dismissed their suspicions.

 

We followed Krul down a couple of streets while Guren and Ren chatted. Ferid tried to flirt with Shinoa but she struck him down so hard, I thought Ferid might crawl under the bench. We walked up to a large store with a sign on it saying it was the bookstore. We walked in and I immediately knew this was the place.

 

I could smell him.

 

“He’s here.” I whispered to Shinoa and she nodded, passing on the message softly to the others. We approached the woman at the front desk.

 

“Excuse me miss but we’re going to have to inspect this store’s basement. Military business, I hope you don’t mind.” Smiled Ferid and the girl suddenly looked alarmed.

 

“I-I’m sorry, Lord Ferid, Queen Krul, but we had a-a recent gas leak and the clean up crew isn’t finished –“

 

“Hand over the key or we take your business.” Growled Krul and the woman shoved us a key. Krul took it, smiling, and proceeded to a basement door. She opened it and started walking down the steps.

 

“We may encounter an ambush. It’s possible that a person of her standards could’ve heard what we were planning.” Explained Ren and a knot appeared in my throat. “Be ready for anything.”

 

I nodded once we reached the bottom of the steps and another door. We opened it and the air was filled with light. We walked in to see vampires of all ages lurking in the shadows of the room as a small woman sat at a table in the center.

 

“Ren! I should’ve known.” She hissed. Ren clicked his tongue and glanced at Krul.

 

“We know about your little club.” She snapped and the woman rolled her eyes.

 

“You’re looking for Hyakuya.” She said, grinning, and sat back in her chair.

 

“How –?” started Ferid.

 

“Because his boyfriend is standing right there. I’m not dumb, you know.” She said, eying me.

 

“And the truth is, I don’t have Mikaela. He left about a day ago. I don’t suppose you have seen him, Yuichiro?” she said, her eyes slitting to make her expression more sinister.

 

“Me?” I asked.

 

“Yes. He saw you last night, didn’t he?” she asked. My cheeks heated and I averted my eyes away from my group.

 

“You-You saw Mika last night!?” exclaimed Guren. I closed my eyes, wanting to disappear.

 

“No –“

 

“DO NOT LIE TO ME YUICHIRO.” Shouted Guren.

 

“Why didn’t you tell us!? WE SNUCK YOU IN BECAUSE WE THOUGHT WE COULD FIND HIM, BUT REALLY HE WASN’T HERE AT ALL!” exclaimed Krul.

 

“I’m sorry! I wanted to protect –“

 

“By keeping this from us!?” growled Guren. I shook my head.

 

“ANSWER ME!”

 

“I WANTED TO KEEP MIKA AWAY FROM YOU MONSTERS!” I shouted at them and turned and ran out of the door. I ran all the way up the stairs and out of the store. I found a good wall to lean up against as I tried to catch my breath. I put my face in my hands and sighed.

 

Not only did I just shout a military officer higher than me, even if it is Guren, I lied to a military officer higher than me. I was only trying to protect Mika. He needed time to think, I get it. He knew we’d be split apart or hunted if he came back and he couldn’t go back to Apollo Eight because of what they might do to me. I slid down the wall, my head wanting to explode. We’d escaped narrowly throughout our whole lives. Being under thirteen when the virus hit, getting past Ferid, Mika getting bitten instead of dying, almost getting split apart at the hearing, and now this.

 

“Yu-san?” whispered a voice. Shinoa appeared in the alley with me and sighed.

 

“I know why you did what you did. And I’m sorry.” She whispered. I shrugged.

 

“I should’ve told. It’s my fault.”

 

She thought about this.

 

“Guren isn’t punishing you, by the way. Apparently he overreacted. He also said,” she came and sat down next to me, “that he knows the feeling.”

 

“Of keeping someone a secret?”

 

She nodded. She then started to rub my back as I stared at my shoes. I knew what I did was wrong. But it was looking as though I may be safe.

 

For now.

 

Sorry for such a short and rushed chapter. >.< I promise I’ll give you a whole chapter of poetic sorrow in the next chapter.

 

See you then!
