Hello fellow readers and writers! Please read this lol.

So, this story was previously known as Too Young and it was an entire piece of shit lol. So I decided to rewrite it in a much better way but still have it make no sense. So welcome to Rival Lovers and all of it's singing bullshit.

Note: I don't own anything from Diabolik Lovers or any songs used in this story. I only own my OC's and any original plot.

Enjoy!

CHAPTER ONE

Cleo sat up in bed, trying to break her thoughts from the other day but nothing seemed to be working. Cleo had gotten into an intense fight with a classmate that she never really liked. Cleo always thought that the girl, whose name is Lexy, always had a problem with someone. However, it wasn't necessarily the fight that was staying on her mind but rather the two handsome redheads she had met that day. They were the ones who broke up the fight, much to Cleo's dismay. She recognized them from somewhere but she wasn't entirely sure from where.

After sitting in bed, pondering on the mysterious redheads, Cleo sighed and pushed herself off the bed. She headed off to her bathroom to get ready for class. She took a very quick, but boiling, shower and washed her hair. She got out and dried off her body but left her hair damp. She pulled it into a ponytail and headed back into her room to get dressed. She pulled on a pair of black skinny jeans and a black tank top that read "Savage" in bold letters. Though her school had a uniform, she never followed that rule. They tried to crack down on her for it but it never worked. Eventually, the school gave up.

She quickly checked the time to make sure she wasn't running late. She smiled to see she had more than enough time to get to class.

She had a strange feeling she couldn't shake. She didn't know what it was exactly but she didn't like it. She picked up her phone and jacket before headed downstairs. She pulled her keys and headphones off the table by the front door. She placed her keys in her pocket and wrapped her headphones around her neck. She sat down on the floor and pulled on a pair of black combat boots. She quickly tied them before grabbing her bag, standing and heading off to school. She didn't bother saying goodbye to her mother since she knew she wasn't home. Her mother always either worked late or left in the wee hours of the morning.

In the middle of the walk to school, she watched as a black limousine sped past her. She watched as it sped out of sight while she continued walking. She then realized where she recognized the redheads from! They were two of the Sakamaki brothers. They were the super rich guys who went to her school. She wasn't sure exactly why they were going to a night, public school but she didn't dwell on it.

Cleo arrived at school well after the shiny limousine. However the redheads were still outside. They were speaking to a group of ladies. Cleo's eyes caught theirs but she quickly broke the lock and continued on into school. She adjusted the bag on her shoulder as she headed to her first class. If there was one thing that Cleo was good at, it was school. She loved her classes, surprisingly. A few of her teachers weren't the nicest but they were decent to her at least. She thought that today was going to be an interesting day, considering yesterday's events. She took a strange interest in the mysterious redheads. Part of her tried to convince herself that it would probably be better not to involve herself with them but she liked the strange aura that surrounded them. She spent most of the day in her head, her mind clouded with different thoughts and theories.

Cleo let out a soft breath as the sound of the final bell echoed through the classrooms and halls, signalling the end of the day. She put her books away and pulled her bag onto her shoulder, leaving the class. As she made her way through the crowded halls, she suddenly felt an arm drop over her shoulders. She looked up to see one of her friends standing beside her, Ryo Tomi. He was tall compared to her. He stood at 6'1 while she was a mere 5'4. "Hey, me and a couple of the guys are going to be playing football in the field for a bit. Want to join?" Cleo thought for a moment before sighing. Her mother probably wasn't home and there was no food anyway.

"Sure," she said, making Ryo cheer. She chuckled watching as he hurried ahead to gather his friends. Cleo met them on the field, leaving her bag and jacket on the bleachers beside Ryo's stuff. She scanned over the players. She noticed a certain redhead standing amongst them. She walked over to the group, standing beside Ryo. Ryo faced her, holding the football in his hand.

"Hey, you wanna be our kicker?" Cleo smiled and nodded.

"She's playing?" The redhead asked, his eyes looking Cleo up and down. "She's a girl."

"Yeah I am and I'm going to kick your ass," she answered, earning a few instigating 'ooo's. The redhead scoffed as the two teams spread out amongst the field in their team positions. Cleo hadn't played football in a while, she was a bit rusty. But she knew she had to nail her kick, especially after her smart remark to the redhead. She watched as the teams went back and forth with their scores until the buzzer was down to the last few seconds. Ryo and Cleo were losing by 6. The redhead's team had 16 while their team had 10. She watched as Ryo shouted 'hike!' and the teams took off. She watched intently as Ryo chucked the ball to another player, player 7. Player 7 grabbed the ball just as her hit the goal line, scoring a touchdown. Her team cheered, leaving the scoreboard tied.

Cleo felt the cold air hit her as she walked out onto the open field. As she approached Ryo, who held the ball for her, she took a deep breath. Ryo yelled hike and the other team immediately sped for them. She kicked the ball with most of her force and watched as it soared above the entire field, going straight through the goalpost. Her team let out loud yells of cheer and the other team groaned in defeat. The scoreboard buzzer went off, signalling the end of the game. Her team had won. She gave a high five to Ryo and faced the redhead who stood in front of her, his arms crossed. "What's your name?" She asked.

The redhead scoffed in disbelief that she didn't know his name. "Ayato Sakamaki."

She nodded her head. "Well, Ayato Sakamaki, just in case you ever forget, I am always going to be here to remind you that you got your ass handed to you in football by a girl." She gave Ayato a taunting smirk and patted his shoulder, walking past him and headed to the bleachers. It had been a long day and she just wanted to get home. She grabbed her bag and jacket and left the school, beginning the journey home. Today was nice and a tad bit interesting.

Cleo had been sitting alone in her living room, chowing down on some nice pepperoni pizza, watching a random horror movie that she found on Netflix. Her mother still wasn't home and she hadn't contacted Cleo either. That was until now. Cleo's phone began going off, playing the musical tune of the ice-cream truck. She picked it up and paused her movie. "Hey, mama. You coming home soon." Cleo listened to her mother sigh over the phone along with other backgrounds noises, mainly yelling.

"Hey, sweetie. Listen, I've got some bad news." Cleo snickered softly, nodding her head.

"Yeah I can tell by the screaming match going on in the background. Is everything alright?" Cleo asked, taking a big bite of her pizza slice.

"I actually need to go on a trip. I don't know when I'll be home," her mother responded, walking away from the screaming match until she was in an empty and quiet area.

"Oh, that's fine. Just transfer the money I'll need to-"

"No, CC." Her mother interrupted her, causing her to go silent. "I don't know how long this is going to take Cleo. I don't know when I'll be coming home." Cleo scoffed, shaking her head.

"So then what the hell am I supposed to do for food, clothes, any other basic daily life necessities?" Cleo asked, shaking her head.

"I've contacted one of your fathers friends. They have no problem letting you stay with them until I return. You'll be going to the same school, you can still do your after school activities and you'll be safe." Cleo knew she wasn't going to get anywhere arguing so she just groaned as she leaned back on the couch.

"Have I met these friends before?"

"You might've met one of them before at one of our dinners. Reiji, I think his name was?" Cleo thought for a moment before nodding her head.

"Yeah, I think I remember him. He was the super tall one that never broke his perfect posture?"

Her mother laughed on the other end. "Yeah, that's him. So, you'll be living with them until I return. A car will pick you up in a morning." Cleo sat forward.

"Wait, wait, wait a minute. This was already set in stone?" Her mother sighed.

"Yeah, I didn't exactly have a choice. I had to act quickly. Look, I'm sorry CC. I just need you to trust me for now."

"Y'know, I'd trust you a little more if you actually talked to me before making decisions that centered around me!" The line went quiet and Cleo waited a few moments to see if her mother would say anything, but she didn't. Then she heard the dial tone. Cleo scoffed and tossed her phone onto the couch. She pushed herself off the couch and decided to go upstairs to start packing.

Cleo got up in the early morning, knowing that some car was going to be arriving soon. If Reiji was anything like he was last year, he'd send the car early. He liked to be prompt and punctual. She took a nice hot shower, then put on a pair of black sweats and a white tank top. She dragged her suitcase downstairs and left it at the bottom of the steps, keeping her bag on her back. She hopped down into the kitchen and grabbed a can of Dr. Pepper. She waited on the steps in the house for the car to arrive. It didn't take long for long for her to hear the honking outside. She picked herself up off the stairs and grabbed her suitcase and bag. She tossed her soda can into the garbage by the front door and left the house. She was decently surprised to see a limo awaiting her outside the house, along with a tall, handsome fellow.

This man had long, dark red hair that was pulled into a ponytail. It reached halfway down his back. His eyes were black and they stared directly into her eyes. He wore a button up shirt, it's color matching his hairs'. He had a black tie over that, looking almost formal. He wore a black hoodie over his shirt and a pair of gray skinny jeans. He stepped forward, stopping front of her. He held out his hand and Cleo eyed it skeptically. "I'm Katsumi," he said, giving her a trusting smile. "Cleo, right?"

Cleo nodded her head and shook his hand. "You are incredibly tall," she said, letting go of his hand. Katsumi laughed and put his hands in his jacket pockets.

"Oh please. I'm only 5'7. Just wait till you meet your fellow residents," he responded, taking hold of her suitcase. "Shall we go?"

"Of course. How long will the ride take?" She asked as they headed towards the limousine. Cleo did notice the odd stares she was receiving from her neighbors.

"Roughly about 3 hours. We should be arriving there for 1:00." He said as he placed her suitcase in the trunk of the limo. He closed the trunk, making sure it locked and then walked back to Cleo. "You should probably get some rest. You might be up for a while, possibly through the night." Cleo raised an eyebrow at him.

"Yeah, that's not creepy or suspicious at all." Katsumi chuckled.

"Yeah, I can't exactly tell you much more than that." Cleo nodded her head.

"Well then I guess I'll just get to know you," she said as she got into the passenger seat. Katsumi got into the driver's seat, shaking his head.

"You realize that there's candy in the back, right?" Cleo nodded her head as Katsumi took off. Cleo got comfortable for the ride.

Cleo somehow managed to drift off to sleep during the ride after her conversation with Katsumi died down. However, Katsumi awoke her when they arrived at her new, temporary home. Cleo sat up and adjusted her eyes to the light outside. She looked through the front window, taking in the scenery around her and the giant mansion in front of her. "That is where I'm supposed to be living?" She exclaimed, turning to Katsumi. Katsumi chuckled softly.

"It's not that bad of a place. Granted, I've only been inside a few times." Cleo sighed as Katsumi got out the car. Before she could get out the car herself, Katsumi opened her door. She stepped out, taking in the fresh air. She also noticed the very tall gates that had spikes lining the tops. She nodded her head at that and put her hands in her pockets.

"Well, no running away I guess." She muttered as Katsumi got her suitcase for her. She reached into the passenger seat and pulled out her bag. She pulled it onto her back as he handed her her suitcase. She took and took in his features for a minute. "You go to my school, don't you?" Katsumi nodded his head, grinning ear to ear.

"I sit behind you in Algebra," he said, putting his hands in his pockets. Cleo nodded her head.

"I knew I recognized you from somewhere." Katsumi nodded before sighing.

"Well, this is my goodbye. I will see you at school, Cleo. It was an honor to officially meet you."

"Pleasure's all mine," she responded, making him laugh as he got into the driver's seat. He drove off, leaving Cleo there for a moment. She turned around and headed to the giant mansion that awaited her presence. She walked up to the door and knocked, alerting the residents of her arrival. Only moments later did the door open, revealing Reiji Sakamaki. Cleo gave him a small smile. "Reiji, nice to see you again."

"You too, Cleo," he responded. Cleo took in the fact that, as always, his posture was straight as can be. He stepped to the side, holding the door open for her. She stepped inside and took a look around. "I don't recall you meeting my brothers." He said, snapping her out of her observations. She pushed a strand of hair out of her face and faced Reiji. She pushed her hands into her sweatpants pockets.

"I think I met one briefly in school." Reiji pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "Ayato, was it?" Cleo noticed the subtle narrow of his eyes at the mention of Ayato. However, it's disappearance was as quick as it's appearance.

"Well, I suppose you should be formally introduced to everyone. Please, follow me. Tend to her luggage." Cleo watched as Reiji began to walk off and she practically jumped out of her shoes when she realized that an older man had suddenly emerged from the shadows, grabbed her suitcase, and disappeared back into the darkness. Cleo nodded her head.

"Totally not creepy," she muttered and followed after Reiji. Reiji led her to a set of double doors which led to what she assumed was a living room. They both walked in and Cleo's eyes immediately landed on a familiar face. Their eyes met and the redhead scoffed.

"Tch, the hell is she doing here?" The redhead asked, earning a glare from Reiji. However, Cleo just smiled.

"What's wrong, Ayato? Scared I'm going to beat you in football again?" Ayato glared at Cleo, only amusing her a bit more.

"She's the one who beat you?" A new voice sounded, amusement evident in their voice. Cleo looked up to see the other redhead standing at the top of a staircase. He most definitely wasn't there before. "She makes quite the impression, hm? I do wonder how she tastes. Mm, I can smell her from here."

Cleo raised an eyebrow at the redhead. "Again, totally not creepy." She said, looking around the room properly. Her eyes landed on a new man lying across a sofa. He had blonde hair and headphones in his ears. She turned to Reiji. "Who's the sleeping not-so beauty?" Ayato snickered as Reiji answered.

"That is the oldest, Shu." Cleo nodded her head. She had heard of him but never seen nor met him.

"Is he ever really awake?" Cleo asked, turning to Reiji.

"That is the myth," Ayato said, chuckling softly. Cleo couldn't help but laugh a bit too.

"The hell is all this noise?" Cleo turned to the right, her eyes landing on a new man.

"I'm sorry, just how many of there are you?" She asked Reiji.

"Six."

"Who the hell are you?" The new man asked. This one had white hair and burning blood red eyes.

"That depends, I have about 3 different identities," she responded, earning strange looks from those in the room. With the exception of the sleeping not-so beauty. She smiled. "Kidding," she said, looking around the room. "There are only five of you here."

"Kanato will show up eventually," Reiji said. "Shall I introduce everyone?" He asked Cleo. Cleo nodded her head. "Shu is the oldest of us all. He's a good for nothing deadbeat." Cleo nodded her head.

"Duly noted."

"I am the second eldest. Next we have the triplets, Ayato being the oldest. Then Kanato, who will hopefully arrive shortly, and Laito being the youngest." Cleo's eyes trailed up to the top of the staircase to see Laito was gone. That was until she felt something wet trail up her ear. She quickly jumped away and turned around, swinging her fist. She wasn't too surprised when it came into contact with Laito's face. She stepped back, shaking out her fist as Ayato burst into laughter.

"Oh, shit. My bad. Didn't mean to do that." She hissed slightly when she felt a sting in her knuckle. She looked down to her fist and saw she had a gash going across her knuckle. "The hell is your jaw made of? Diamonds?" She looked back to Laito to see blood on his lip. She watched as he licked it up, revealing some very sharp canine teeth. She glanced around the room. Everyone's eyes were glowing a bloodthirsty kind of way. Cleo looked between her fist, Laito's teeth and everyone's eyes. She sighed, shaking her head. "Damn it Katsumi." She turned to Reiji. "You know you could've given him a little note to give to me. 'Hey, just kind of forget to mention that you're going to live with Vampires'. That would've been fucking splendid to know. But no," she ranted, shaking her head and pushing her hair out of his face. "You just had to let me walk in blindly. Did my mother know?" She asked, looking back to Reiji.

"No, otherwise she wouldn't have sent you here. Smart woman, that one." Cleo scoffed, turning back to Laito.

"Why the hell did you think it would be a good idea to lick me? You've seen what I do to people who so much as look at me the wrong way? Wow, I should really stop talking." Cleo sighed, shaking her head.

"You done?" The white haired one asked, leaning against the wall by the door he came in from. Cleo took the end of her shirt and pressed it against the cut on her knuckle, letting it soak up any blood.

"Yes. Now, I am done." She shook her head as she took her finger out of her shirt. The bleeding had stopped but the look remained in their eyes, though it was fading.

"Kanato seems to be busy, you'll meet him at dinner. That's Subaru, the youngest of us all," Reiji said, gesturing to the white haired one. She held in a laugh. As she left the room she took one last glance at each of the brothers that remained in the room before leaving, following after Reiji. "What has your mother informed you of?"

"She told me I'll still be going to the same school. I'll still be able to go to any after school programs I'm in and that 'I'll be safe'." She said, quoting the last part with her fingers. Reiji kept walking, going upstairs. "But that's about it." Reiji spoke quickly but clearly as he walked down the long hall.

"You can not leave the premises without one of us going with you. You are expected to do well in school, which means no more fighting and you have to wear the uniform," he said, eyeing her. Cleo nodded her head, putting her hands in her pockets.

"Great, so that means I can still play my after school sports and any activities?" Reiji gave a nod of his head.

"Yes, unless you're needed back here." Cleo nodded her head as she stopped at a door. He turned and faced her. "I will summon you to dinner in a few hours."

"Alright, thanks again."

"Do not thank me. You are merely here for our well-being." With that being said, Reiji left Cleo alone to think about everything that just happened.

"Oh, this is going to amazing," Cleo muttered sarcastically as she went into her new bedroom. She smiled as she entered the room. It looked very similar to her bedroom at her her mother's house. Her suitcase was waiting for her at the end of her bed along with a laid out uniform. Cleo snickered softly, shaking her head. She found it funny that he actually thought she would wear the uniform. She looked around the room.

There was a black computer desk, a closet, a queen sized bed and another door. Everything was either black or gray. There was an end table beside the bed that was covered in gray and black sheets. The pillows wrapped up in a black pillow case. She went over to her suitcase and pulled it open, pulling things out. She pulled her bag off her back and placed her laptop on the computer desk and pulled out her phone. She tried to call her mom but there was no service. She scoffed, shaking her head. "Un-fucking-believable." She continued to set things up until everything was away and the room was neat. She decided to freshen up and change her clothes. She pulled on a pair of black skinny jeans and a black long sleeved turtle neck. She left her phone under the pillow and kept her mp3 player with her. She pulled on a new pair of shoes, a pair of black combat boots. She laced them up and laid across her bed. Just as she was about to put her headphones in her ears, there was a knock at her door. She groaned as she sat up. "Yeah?"

"Master Reiji has summoned you to the dining hall for dinner." Cleo stood up from the bed and left the room, coming face to face with the elderly man that she took her suitcase when she arrived. He didn't say anything else to her before walking down the hall. She walked in silence, leaving her headphones around her neck. She arrived upon another set of double doors and the man walked away. She sighed and pushed the doors open, walking inside. It was indeed a dining hall and it was beautiful. The table was set and the chandelier hung over it, the only light source in the room. Sitting around the table was Reiji, Shu, Ayato and Subaru. Reiji looked up to Cleo, a disapproving look on his face.

"Where is your uniform, Cleo?" Cleo looked around the table, looking to see where she should sit.

"Exactly where you left it. And it's going to stay there," she replied, walking to the table. She plopped herself down beside Shu and sighed. "I don't suggest you put up the argument of me wearing my uniform." Much to Reiji's dismay, he nodded his head and ended the conversation. Sitting straight across from her was Ayato who kept a glare locked onto Cleo. Cleo tilted her head at Ayato.

"What's wrong Ayato? You look like a squirrel just ran through your food and then some."

"I want a rematch." He said simply, leaning forward in his chair. Reiji looked between the two, about to speak up but Cleo spoke first.

"Why? So I can knock you on your ass?" Cleo replied, leaning forward as well. Ayato let out a low growl, ready to burst but Reiji spoke.

"Ayato." Ayato scoffed and relaxed in his seat. Cleo smirked, leaning back as well. Only moments later, Kanato and Laito showed up. They sat down on Ayato's side of the table, Shu and Subaru on Cleo's side of the table and Reiji at the head. A few butlers arrived with food, serving the table. Everyone dug in, including Cleo.

"Ne, Cleo? Where did you learn to play football?" Laito asked, taking a bite of his food. Cleo looked up to him, leaning back in her seat.

"My big brother taught me actually." Ayato looked to her.

"You have a brother?" He asked. Cleo turned back to Ayato.

"Yeah I do," she answered, taking a sip of the wine that sat in her glass cup. She placed it down on the table. "Reiji, you met him right?" Reiji nodded his head.

"Yes, he was the one who left before the meeting even began right?" Cleo snickered.

"Yeah, said he had a meeting of his own, if you know what I mean." She took another sip of her wine as Laito laughed. The dinner continued in silence but Cleo didn't leave the stares she was getting unnoticed. It was clear to the brothers that she was different from the other brides they had received. Cleo then got a question. "Reiji, what did you mean by I'm only here for your well-being?" She asked, leaning back in her seat.

"Hm, you didn't tell her?" Laito asked, leaning his elbow on the desk and placing his chin on his palm. Cleo faced him. "You're our sacrificial bride." Cleo raised an eyebrow at him. She nodded her head.

"Huh. Good to know," she picked up her glass and guzzled down the rest of her wine.

"Hm, she took it better than the rest," Laito commented.

"Anyone else would've ran and started screaming," Kanato added, turning to Cleo. A sinister smirk grew on his face and he was about to speak but Cleo spoke up first. She picked up her fork, a piece of meat on it and she pointed it at him.

"I swear if you ask me to scream for you, I will shove this fork so far up your-"

"Cleo," Reiji warned. Cleo stopped talking and pulled her fork back, leaning back in her chair. Laito giggled.

"Ne, I like this one." Laito smirked at Cleo and it was not a smirk she trusted. "So, do you play any other sports? Like, volleyball?" Cleo chuckled softly.

"You name it, I play it." She responded, placing her fork down on the plate. Cleo never noticed that the deadbeat took out his headphones to listen to the conversation. "That includes Volleyball."

"Soccer?" Ayato asked. Cleo nodded.

"Basketball?"

"Yup."

"Tennis?" Laito asked. Cleo nodded again.

"Boxing?" Subaru threw out, suddenly interested in the conversation.

"Oh, you bet your ass I'll knock you down before you even get your gloves on." Cleo responded.

"Darts?" Cleo turned to the deadbeat, surprised to finally hear his voice. She nodded her head.

"Not exactly my type of sport but I dabbled in it." Normally, the band of brothers wouldn't bother to get to known their bride since she was just going to die anyway. However, she felt different to them. She hadn't run for the hills when she found out they were vampires and she wasn't afraid to talk back to them. She was brave, but naive.

"What's your favorite sport?" Ayato asked.

"Archery, football and paintball."

"Your brother teach you all of those?" Ayato asked, leaning back in his seat.

"Yeah. Well, not paintball. I decided to teach myself how to shoot when I started waking up to a paintball in my rib."

"I sense a riveting story behind that," Laito said, smirking.

"Yes, one you will not hear." Cleo responded. After the most interesting conversation about Cleo and her sports, the residents began to head to school. Cleo had rushed upstairs to get her bag before heading back to the limousine that awaited them. She immediately recognized the driver. Katsumi smiled at her as she walked past. "Would've been wonderful to know that I'm living with vampires." Was all she said before getting into the limousine.

"Fair enough," he said before closing the limousine door behind her. He got into the driver's seat, taking off beyond the gates. Cleo sat comfortably in between Subaru and Shu. Cleo noticed how Laito and Ayato stared at her, in two different ways. Ayato looked at her with curious yet blood lustful eyes. However, Laito looked at her with lustful eyes. She noticed Kanato talking to the strange, eye-patched teddy bear and she certainly noticed how Shu rarely ever opens his eyes and always has headphones in. She then turned to Subaru who kept his eyes outside the window and didn't exactly talk. She did however notice how his fists always seem to be clenched or his arms crossed. She turned back to Reiji who had his eyes focused in a book. However through the whole ride she noticed that he only turned the page twice. She figured either he was a really slow reader or he was memorizing each page. This band of brothers were interesting and she knew that thought this journey may be painful. It sure as hell would be fun.

The ride came to a halt and Cleo heard the sounds of the chatter and could see the school lights through the window. They had arrived. Subaru got out the Limousine and Cleo got out next. She fixed her bag on her shoulder and kept walking into the school. She went up to her first class: Algebra. She was approached by Ryo. He dropped his arm over her shoulder as they walked towards their classroom. "You ready for the exam?" Ryo asked. Cleo stopped in her tracks, looking to Ryo, eyes wide.

"That's today?!" She exclaimed, catching the attention of several students around her. She groaned as she ran a hand through her hair. "Fuck! I thought that was tomorrow!" She exclaimed, shaking her head.

"No, teacher moved it to today because classes were being a bitch and she got pissed. Moved it up to today just to piss off students." Ryo chuckled, moving his arm off her shoulders.

"Yeah, and fail them!" Cleo sighed as Ryo placed a hand on her shoulder.

"I'd say you're going to do fine but you are probably fucked," Ryo said before walking into the class. Cleo groaned as she followed him into the classroom, taking her seat at the front of the class. He was dreading this exam but she was dreading her next class worse than this one.

Cleo went through the rest of her classes quiet and not arguing with anyone. She had bumped into one of the brothers every now and then but she didn't interact. Even if they did try to. Luckily for her, she got a small break since it was now free period. She went down to the cafeteria and found Ryo and Katsumi sitting together. She plopped down beside Ryo, avoiding eye contact with Katsumi. Ryo sighed as he watched the two in awkward silence. "Come on, why aren't you talking to him?" Ryo asked.

"Because he didn't tell me-"

"I didn't tell her that I had a fling with someone," Katsumi said. Cleo head perked up and looked to him. Katsumi gave her a frown. "Look I'm sorry but it was a one time thing. I don't even know his name!"

"Wait, his?" Ryo asked, turning to Katsumi. Katsumi tilted his head at Ryo.

"Yeah. Is that a problem?" Ryo shook his head. "Let's just change the subject."

"Yeah, how'd you guys do on the Algebra exam?" Ryo asked Cleo.

Cleo groaned and banged her head on the cafeteria table continuously.

"Ne, if you keep doing that you'll give yourself a concussion." She looked up at the voice to find Laito and Ayato sitting beside Katsumi.

"Honestly, I don't even care at this point," she muttered, going back to banging her head. Ryo chuckled and placed his hand under her forehead. "Can we just change the topic?"

"Ugh, fine. I got two periods to kill," Ryo said, shaking his head.

"Two? Next period we have gym together." Ryo turned to her with a raised eyebrow. She nodded her head with pursed lips.

"You coming to the auditorium with me and Kat?" Ryo asked Cleo.

"Hm, what do you do in the auditorium?" Laito asked, placing his chin in his palm. Ryo turned to Laito, a confused look on his face.

"I'm sorry, who are you?" He asked Laito, causing Cleo and Katsumi to snicker. He knew who Ayato was. "You two brothers?"

"No, they just look entirely alike because Ayato was cloned." Cleo said, making Katsumi and Laito laugh.

"Oh, shut up." Ryo said, rolling his eyes. Then, he got an idea. "Let's play a game."

"Hm, I like games," Laito said, his eyes looking over Cleo.

"Oh, I'm sure you do," she responded, turning back to Ryo. "What game?"

"Truth or dare," he said, making Cleo groan again. She banged her head back on the table, staying there.

"Truth or dare never ends well," she murmured.

"Why don't we test that theory?" Laito said, lifting her head off the table. Cleo moved away from his hand, tossing her hair out of her face. "I'll go first-"

"I have a dare for you," Ayato said, turning to Cleo. Cleo sighed and shook her head. "Go against me one on one in football."

"Go against me in Paintball, win and I'll do your bidding for a week." Ryo, Katsumi and Laito watched the conversation unfold.

"Two weeks."

"One."

"Two."

"One."

"Two."

"One." Cleo knew he was getting impatient and would give up soon.

"Two."

"One."

"Two."

"4 Days."

"Fine!" He exclaimed, a bit too quickly. Cleo smirked as he realized his mistake. "Wait, wait, wait. That's not fair."

"That is very fair. I will go against you again in football, one on one. If you win, I will do whatever you want as long as it's within reason." Ayato leaned back in his seat with a huff.

"My turn," Ryo said before Laito could say anything. "I dare you to sing us a song." Cleo turned to Ryo, her hair falling off her shoulder.

"You realize I can't sing right?" Cleo asked in a monotone voice.

"Well that's what you've told me. And if you fail miserably, I want to give our good friend Ayato something to hold over your head." Cleo groaned, turning to Ayato who looked amused.

"Fine," she groaned, pulling her hair out of her ponytail. Ryo chuckled.

"Not here," he said. He stood up from the table and grabbed Cleo's hand. Cleo reluctantly followed after him, along with Laito, Ayato and Katsumi. He led her back upstairs to the auditorium. He pushed her inside and pointed to the stage. "You are going to use that microphone and sing out to your heart's desire." Cleo scoffed shaking her head as she walked up to the stage.

"Go live with the vampires, they said," she muttered. "It'll be fun, they said." She went backstage and found a microphone. She walked back out and turned to Ryo who was sitting comfortable in the chairs with Katsumi, Ayato and Laito.

"Whenever you're ready, Ms. Diaz." Katsumi said, crossing his leg over the other.

"What you expect me to do this acapella?" Cleo asked, blowing her hair out of her face. Ryo groaned, throwing his head back. He stood up and hurried up to the stage. He looked around before finding the speakers. He pulled out his phone and connected it to the speaker.

"For as long as I've known you, you have always loved this song. So, this is what you're going to be singing." He said as he started the song. Cleo groaned as he went back to his seat.

"Just a small town girl. Livin' in a lonely world. She took the midnight train goin' anywhere."

The group of boys fell quiet and their ears perked up at the sound of her voice. Laito found it amazing, mesmerizing. The rest did as well but Ayato was a bit upset that he wouldn't he wouldn't be able to hold this over her head. Ryo was also a bit upset but not for the same reason. She hid this amazing talent of hers from him and he's known her for years.

"A singer in a smoky room. The smell of wine and cheap perfume. For a smile, they can share the night. It goes on and on, and on, and on."

The boys turned away from Cleo when they heard voices by the auditorium door. They realized they hadn't closed the door behind them so the speakers began to draw in students. However, Cleo hadn't seemed to notice. She was lost in the song as students began to pile into the seats. However, she noticed when she opened her eyes to the sound of cheers when there was a pause in the lyrics.

"Workin' hard to get my fill. Everybody wants a thrill. Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time. Some will win, some will lose. Some were born to sing the blues. Oh, the movie never ends. It goes on and on, and on, and on!"

Much to Cleo's dismay, the auditorium was getting fuller by the minute. Some stayed by the door while others took a seat but she noticed that Ryo, Katsumi, Ayato and Laito never moved from their seats.

"Whoa, oha, don't stop believin'! Hold onto that feeling! Streetlights, People, whoa!"

When the song ended, Cleo dropped the microphone from her mouth, letting the auditorium erupt into deafening cheers. She knew that even thought this was fun, she couldn't do it again. She placed the microphone on the floor and quickly hurried off stage. Katsumi and Ryo got up and rushed after Cleo. Ryo stopped Cleo and slapped her arm.

"What the hell happened to 'I can't sing'?" Ryo asked, slapping her arm three more times.

"Stop hitting me, okay?" She grabbed his arm and put it back at his side. "And I do believe I can't sing. I never enjoyed singing."

"Until now," Katsumi said. "You didn't see your face while you were up there. You looked so happy. You did enjoy singing you just never pursued it until now." Cleo scoffed, shaking her head.

"No! That was a one time thing. I am going to gym. I will see you Ryo, on Monday. Katsumi, I will see you at the limousine." She patted Ryo on his back and hurried out the auditorium, squeezing past Shu and Subaru. However, she didn't get far down the hall before someone grabbed her wrist and took her around the corner. Whereas, downstairs to the gym. She looked up to see it was actually Ayato who was dragging her off. She stopped herself in her tracks and pulled her wrist out of his hold. "The hell do you think you're doing? I'm not going to be your personal blood bag."

Ayato scoffed and grabbed her wrist again, this time forcing her against the wall. She winced when her back made impact with the wall, knocking the air out of her for a moment. He took hold of her other wrist as well, holding her against the wall. However, before he could make a move, Cleo lifted her leg and kneed him in his side. He groaned slightly, loosening his tight grip around her wrists. She pulled her fist back and punched him across the face. She stumbled slightly, giving Cleo the time she needed to get back to the staircase. She hurried down the stairs and hurried into the girls locker room. She let out a sigh of relief as she entered. That was close.
