Fiction
Aidou stifled a sob, his eyes widening in sadness.
"It's unfair," he choked out, "it's unfair. It's unfair! This shouldn't have happened!"
Yori stuck her head through the blonde's bedroom door, facing him with an annoyed gaze.
"Aidou, you've been whining all day and it's becoming increasingly bothersome. What's the problem?"
The said boy turned to face her, pouting like a puppy which just lost its favorite toy. "I was reading a manga about this human girl and vampire who fell in love. They were so strong, not minding what everyone said about their relationship. But do you know what happened in the end? The girl refused to be turned into a vampire! And she freaking died of old age! While the boy was still super young! Do you know how frustrating that is?"
"Ah." Yori nodded in understanding. "That sounds familiar."
"Yeah, almost like us," Aidou admitted while closing the manga, his frustration subsiding while realization dawned on him. "Almost."
An advantage to having a genius vampire mind was the ability to recall memories easily. Using this, Aidou thought back to his moments with Yori, from the time he confessed, to her acceptance, and even to day when she allowed herself to be bitten by Yuuki, all so that she could turn into a vampire and live out her life with him.
"I'm thankful you agreed to be bitten, Yori, even if you have to deal with your thirst all the time. In exchange, I promise to find the cure as soon as I can!"
Yori's eyes lightened as she teased, "That's the millionth time you said that, Aidou. Also, deal with your thirst before you think of mine."
Aidou lifted an eyebrow, joining the banter with sarcasm, "So what you're saying behind those highly cryptic words, is that you're offering your blood to me?"
Yori merely chucked a container of blood tablets at his head. "Don't push your luck," she said, though a playful smile tugged at the corners of her lips.
He grinned and stood up to hug her, his long arms wrapping itself around her thin body. From humorous to affectionate, their relationship had so many sides, capable of switching at any time. And they loved it.
"This is probably the billionth time I'm saying this, but -"
"I love you," Yori finished, as if she could read his mind. From knowing so much about him, she probably could.
"Yes." He closed his eyes, breathing her scent in. "That, and I'll always be here for you, especially when you're thirsty."
Yo! So I was super annoyed at the ending of VK, more particularly how Aidori came true but was never expounded on. Most of all, how YORI FREAKING DIED AT THE END.
I mean, couldn't she have been turned into a vampire first, then live her life with Aidou until he found the medicine to turn vampires into humans? It's the perfect solution, and yet we didn't get any of it!
So I wrote this drabble to vent out my frustrations :)
