"Rima, when we grow up, let's get married." Senri said.

"R-really? But Senri, I-I'm not pretty." Rima fidgeted.

Senri took Rima's hands in his. "You are the prettiest, Rima! Even prettier than my mom!" he exclaimed, determination shining through his blue eyes.

"Senri…thank you!" Rima threw her arms around Senri's neck, a happy smile on her face.

Senri smiled, hugging her back.

Shiki laid on Rima's bed, staring at the ceiling and idly twirling Rima's hair.

"Hey Rima, I'm hungry."

"Already?" Rima didn't move,, lying on her side and reading a manga, facing the door.

"Yeah."

Rima put down the manga she was reading and rolled onto her back. She moved her hair, revealing her neck. "Here." She said in a monotone, looking up boredly.

Shiki got on top of her and put on leg on either side of hers. "Itadakimasu." His hands on either side of her head, he leaned in slowly.

"Hey Rima," Ruka opened the door and walked in. "Have you seen my-"

Shiki and Rima turned to the intruder, staring with a clear lack of interest. Ruka's mouth formed the shape of her next word, but she didn't say it, gaping at the situation in front of her.

"Eh…sorry for interrupting," she laughed nervously, "I'll…be going now." Ruka slowly shut the door, before peeking in again, but realised the two were still stasring at her, and shut the door completely.

Shiki and Rima faced eachother again. Shiki leaned in.

"Hey Shiki! What are you doing to Ri-"

Ichijou suddenly bursted in, abruptly freezing too.

Shiki was going for Rima's neck when Ichijou appeared. Rima had turned her head to the direction of the noise, but Shiki did not. His lips were close to her neck and when she turned, Shiki's lips collided with hers.

They stared at each other, shock evident in their wide eyes.

But no one was more shocked than Ichijou, whose body turned into ice. He stuttered an apology before closing the door and nearly tripping, followed by a few crashes outside and a cry of 'Takuma-sama!'

Shiki and Rima did not feel any of those. Their lips were still connected, unmoving and still.

Shiki pulled away and sat up, turning away from Rima. "Sorry." He muttered.

Rima also sat up, letting her legs off the bed and looking at a corner of the room. "Don't worry." She said quietly, her voice barely audible.

Shiki turned around hesitantly, looking at Rima's back.

"Hey…can I drink your blood?" he asked.

Rima wordlessly pushed her hair off her neck. Shiki moved closer, his hand by her side and his body behind her. His fangs met her flesh.

Better keep it safe for now.
