Shuu was not impressed, the music room, his precious music room was being used by other students for once and the disturbance was too great for him to nap. Disgruntled and rather grumpy he tromped around the school trying to find some place he could nap before settling for the library which was always silent because of the strict Librarian.
He opened the door to find it was dead silent like he had anticipated, he slunk in the only other student there was Momo. The only reason he knew her name was because they shared the same last name and she sat in front of him in class, and the only reason he knew this was that he had actually bothered to attend classes the first day. They had also sent Momo for the first few days to find him and deliver homework packages. She was a rather plain human girl, nothing really peculiar or remarkable except perhaps her endurance and perseverance when it came to studying. Talk of the school was that the reason Momo attended night classes were so she could work a day job to provide money for her family, the fourth child in seven the eldest two having moved out she had to help support the younger three, her grandparents and single mother. And the only reason she was in the academy was a scholarship she maintained, between her job, school and homework it was rumored she got at best three hours of sleep a day.
She always wore large bulky black rimmed glasses that looked like they were hand-me-downs, the frames scuffed and scratched. Her long black hair was twisted to the side of her head haphazardly as if done in a rush. She was diligently looking back and forth between two of her textbooks while writing otherwise silent. Shuu shrugged it off and trotted to the back of the library to find one of the plush chairs to sink into and collapsed for a nap. He fell asleep quickly and easily, his ear buds still quietly playing music while he slept. He awoke to a clattering sound and glanced around before seeing Momo in the aisle head of him and a rather heavy volume at her feet. He shrugged assuming she had just dropped it but noticed she made no move to recover the book and simply stood still as if turned to stone. Curious he got up and trotted over to find she had fallen asleep standing, her right arm clutching her other books tightly to her chest and her cheek resting on the shelf next to her. Her glasses were slipping down her nose and he could see the dark circles around her eyes from the lack of sleep.
He glanced down at the volume at her feet and saw that her left hand was still hanging in the air to put the book back in its place. He been down and picked up the book, slipping it back into place before glancing back at the sleeping human. He usually avoided humans but he slightly liked this one because it never went out of its way to pester him; sure it tried giving him homework packages for a while but it realised quickly the endeavor was pointless and left him alone-it even told him that the last day it visited the music room. It was quiet and tolerable, somewhat preferable in that matter to Yui.
Without meaning to his eyes glanced down at the exposed neck where he could see the network of veins and arteries under the skin. Then suddenly her heart beat pounded in his ear drums and it was all he could hear as he stared down. Shuu found himself overwhelmed suddenly with thirst staring down at the vulnerable neck. It's be so easy, if he was careful he might not even wake her- if he did he had a few options it's not like the little thing had a chance of out running him or over powering him it was just human after all.
He opened his mouth revealing his fangs and leaned in slowly until, "Shuu… why don't you do homework?" the sleeping human mumbled quietly under her breathe in her sleep, "You know for the first few weeks I did it for you… I was hoping it'd make you come to class…" she mumbled again and shifted her position her hair falling over her neck, "I have to remember eggs are on sale on Thursday... first time in weeks we'll have eggs… but that means no milk either…" she continued on. Shuu blinked and backed away managing to reign in his appetite, he stepped away and jabbed at the human harshly in the arm. Momo squeaked and jumped thwacking her head rather violently on the shelf in front of her, she made a noise of pain and began rubbing at her head.
She then glanced around confused, "Huh?" she said seeing no one in sight though she could've sworn that someone had just jabbed her roughly in the arm. She also could have sworn that the last thing she was doing was accidentally dropping the chemistry book she had taken out of the library. She glanced down to see it safely tucked into its place and furrowed her browns concerned but shook her head out.
I can't fall asleep like that again. Study break is the only time you have to do work anyways, she thought to herself turning on her heel and heading back to her desk. Just as she reached them the bell rang declaring her study period had ended and she had to get to class. She sighed and trotted off throwing one cautious glance behind her into the library.
Once the bell rang Shuu returned to the music room to find that finally the annoying students had exited, he slipped in and found a comfortable perch next to one of the windows and fell asleep until class was over. After school ended he walked out to the front of the school waiting for his lift home, he found himself standing a short distance away from the crosswalk.
He watched people milling about apathetically, the cross light turned red and cars slowly crawled out when someone stepped past him to cross. It was Momo who didn't look entirely focused, a vacant look in her eyes as she stepped off of the curb and onto the street. Without really thinking about it Shuu snatched the back of the collar of her uniform giving a harsh tug which yanked the girl off her feet and back onto the pavement of the sidewalk rather than the road. A car passed by laying on its horn as an angry warning. He still had her collar clutched in his hand when she turned to look at him.
Her eyes blinked confused and then grew wide as fear crept up on her, "E-excuse me I am so sorry." She blurted out and although his face didn't register as confused his mind certainly did, "Thank you Sakamaki senpai." She said as he released her shirt and she gave him a polite bow, "Thank you very much, if there is anything I can do for you please ask." She said and straightened up.
"Just leave me alone." He answered her sighing heavily, she nodded her head and checked her watch and suddenly jumped up sprinting down the street while withdrawing her wallet and pulling out what looked like several coupons. Shuu watched her silent dash away and shook his head, it was too troublesome looking after humans even if they meant well. He wondered what would've happened if he hadn't pulled her out of traffic though the answer was quite obvious. His lift home arrived, Shuu climbed in and went home his thoughts all turned to a nice long nap in Yui's bathtub.
