Chapter 1
Yuri exhaled and rolled over on his side. His breath hitched briefly in slight surprise when he noticed a certain blonde laying beside him, sleeping soundly.
{Oh. I wonder why I didn't hear Wolfram come in? Was it after I had fallen asleep the first time?} he thought. {Stupid jerk...then again, I guess I shouldn't blame him TOO much since he doesn't know what goes through my mind...but still! He IS the reason I can't get back to sleep now!}
What Yuri meant by thinking this wasn't that he couldn't go back to sleep knowing Wolfram was yet again sleeping in his bed, but because...
Because something changed about a month prior to this night. For weeks now, Yuri had found himself less and less determined to break the engagement. This surprised him, as he thought for sure he was a hundred percent straight. And he wasn't even sure what changed his mind in the first place. The only thing he knew for sure was...
Wolfram stirred a moment and opened his eyes.
"Yuri? What is it?" he asked tiredly. Yuri smiled reassuringly.
"It's nothing, Wolfram. I was just thinking. Sorry I woke you up." he said, rolling back over on his back. A bit of doubt flickered in Wolfram's emerald eyes, but after a moment, the blonde fell back asleep, leaving his fiance to ponder once again.
Exhaling, Yuri closed his eyes. The only thing he knew for certain...was that he had come to the realization that he was in love with his betrothed. The only question was...what was he going to do about it?

"Mira." At the stern tone in Conrad's voice, the demon girl with seafoam green hair turned and blinked her violet eyes in confusion.
"What is it?" she asked. He crossed his arms.
"So," he said, "Who is it you're after?" This confused the pale skinned girl even more, and she inquired as to what he was going on about. This seemed to irritate the brunette and he said,
"You know what I'm talking about. You've got an air about you that feels like you're tense and up to no good. So who are you after? Are you plotting to steal Yuri from my little brother...or are you going to attempt to steal my brother from Yuri?" Mirette sighed and shook her head.
"You really don't get it, do you? While Wolfram and I have been good friends since childhood, and admittedly the king IS cute...I guess...I am NOT out for either of their hearts. You know who I'm in love with, you dolt! ..." Her expression became troubled then, "...Conrad, the reason I have my doubts about their engagement is...well you said yourself that it was unintentional, and you said yourself that up until a month ago, King Yuri has been wanting to call the betrothal off. As for Wolfram, I didn't need you to tell me that Wolfram wouldn't allow it for the sake of his own pride."
"So basically what you're saying-" Mira interrupted Conrad's statement.
"What I'm saying is that if Wolfram and King Yuri don't love eachother and his majesty only decided to give up on convincing Wolfram to let him break it off because he was sick of trying...then I'll break the engagement myself somehow if I must." Before Conrad could say anything, she added, "But before I do anything rash...I want to find out for myself if they really do love eachother."
Conrad sighed.
"Mira, do you mind if I give you a piece of advice?" he asked.
"What is it?"
"Do NOT meddle in their affairs. Yuri and Wolfram are both perfectly capable of dealing with this their own way. If you meddle, you may go overboard and something bad may happen." With that last remark, Conrad left Mirette to think on it.
(VongolaVampiress: And that concludes the chapter of this fic. Originally it was going to be a Wolfram x OC, but unlike some other characters I like who I started Character X OC fic outlines for, I couldn't see Wolfram paired with anyone but Yuri, and I've been dying to write a shonenai, so I went ahead with it. But I didn't want to discard or recycle Mirette, so I made her Wolfram's childhood friend/ a character for a side pairing. The side pairing will be revealed eventually, but honestly, since this is a Yuri x Wolfram fic, I'm not in any hurry about focusing on the OC's pairing. Well, I hope you enjoyed chapter 1. It was short and didn't have much of Yuri and Wolfram, but I promise chapter 2 will have MUCH more of them in it!
Wolfram: Hey, aren't you going to tell them the other stuff? Like-
VongolaVampiress: H-hey look! Yuri is flirting with a girl! ^^; You better go stop him.
Wolfram: WHAT?! YURI, YOU HEARTLESS FLIRT! *leaves*
VongolaVampires: Phew...^^; sorry people, no fic spoilers for you today! Chapter 2 will be up soon, okay! ^ ^ ...)
