"Yuu-chan…"

"What is it, Mika?"
Drip…

"…It hurts…"

OooOooOooOooO
Soft fingers traced the tips of delicate pointed ears, tickled by fluffy strands of sunlight. Pale skin, cool to his warmed fingers, but soothingly, pressed against him.
"Yuu-chan…"
A soft, breathy whisper that made his heart clench.
Beneath him, red eyes burned hot with love and lust and something that could almost be called purity.
"Mika…"
Soft moans and gentle caresses. Warmth cascading into cold, over and over again and ice rising up to melt against fire, in perfect harmony.
They even climaxed in unison.
OooOooOooOooO
Drip…
Drip…
Drip…
A whimper.
A pulse that was barely there.
Half-blood
OooOooOooOooO
Crimson blood-Mika's blood- dripped into his mouth from a cut on his lover's wrist.
Fire, consuming him. Screams- were they his?
Firm hands, holding him close, pinning him down.
Red eyes, staring into green pools as they, too, became red.
A moment of silence.
Pained, labored breathing.
"It's…it's…it's rea…really exhausting…"
"Yes. I know it is. But…but do you think it's worth it?"
A cheery grin, enough to make his heart seize up.
"Duh! Of course…! Of course it is!"
He returned the smile and adjusted his arms, so they were hugging and not restraining.
OooOooOooOooO
Drip…
Drip…
Drip…
…drip…
…drip…
Silence.
Light, inaudible breathing.
"Yuu-chan…I…I can see…I see them.."
OooOooOooOooO
At the altar, dressed in white, they beheld each other in identical red gazes.
Between them, the ceremonial goblet sparkled in the artificial light.
Krul Tepes presiding.
The knife was double edged.
They each used one side, letting their blood mix into the goblet even as their self-inflicted wounds healed.
They drank, and the blood was delicious.
The crowd was small, but it was enough, as everyone looked at everyone else with happiness shining in their eyes.
They kissed, lightly but effectively stealing the blood from the other's lips.
It was a happy day.
OooOooOooOooO
