Disclaimer: I own nothing of profit for this story. I am just some weird teenager that loves to write like its crack. Enjoy the random thoughts that I put into story.

Their Love.

It was normal for Shiki to be tired; it was as if that were the only emotion he knew. It seemed to fit him as he was the strong silent type though he was known for his random spurts of participation in Ichijou's little mind games as he was the least likely to interfere. The only time he was not tired was when he was with her. Rima Toya was his only escape from his bored life of existence. She had been around since his childhood and he planned to keep her around a lot longer. The entire night class knew this and was aware of Shiki's intentions to keep Rima as his. The only one not aware of this was the target of Shiki's affection, Rima herself.

Rima was aware she loved Shiki and knew deep down they would always be together, just not as close as Shiki had in mind. She often let him sleep in her bed with her where they would cuddle close or just hold each other, content with the other close by. There were a few times Rima had not allowed him to stay with her and she woke up angry for some reason and often remained antsy till she saw him in class. Shiki felt the same though Rima refused to sleep in his room due to her fear of being caught. Shiki had no such fear, as the entire night class already knew the two were close.

"Shiki." Rima greeted him one morning as she returned from work. She was tired and changed quickly behind the screen Shiki had given to her a few months ago so they could talk as she dressed for bed. "I'm sorry I'm late, they kept me longer for some beach shots." She explained as she shed her skirt and top. "How long have you been here?"

"Not long." He stated quietly. Rima rolled her eyes as Shiki was known to wait hours for her. "How did it go?"

"Boring." Rima replied as she threw her nightdress on and stepped out from behind the screen to plop on her comfy bed. She was suddenly aware of chocolaty goodness being waved in her face as she took the poky offered to her with her mouth. Shiki gave a low chuckle as she chomped down the wonderful treat. "You always take care of me." Rima smiled. She eyed Shiki when he did not answer her. "Are you alright?"

"What do you think of me?" He asked lowly as if hoping she would not hear him. Rima paused to study her close friend and sat up to lean on his arm. He relaxed as she did this and let her loop her arm through his.

"I think you are Shiki." She stated, finishing her poky. "You will always be my Shiki."

This seemed to please him as he turned to kiss her forehead and she allowed him to push her down on the soft mattress. The clean sheets crinkled as he helped her under the covers followed by him joining her. Rima let his hands release her pigtails from their ribbons and stray down her neck and over her shoulders. He traced his fingers down her spine as she leaned close to him and breathed Shiki's scent. It was so close to hers that she no longer could tell him apart from her as she guessed she smelled like him as well. They were so close they were almost one and this thought seemed to scare Rima. What if Shiki engulfed her to the point there was no escape? What if his existence swallowed her up and she would no longer be herself?

These thoughts escaped her as Shiki caught her lips in his own, his tongue lying in wait for her to press into his lips, melding her own to his. He licked at her bottom lip and though she hesitated he was allowed to enter her mouth. Rima lay still and quiet as Shiki molded their mouths together. He had always been a wonderful kisser and each time it sent her spiraling into wonder as to who he had ever kissed before her, but she never thought long on that subject as he would lay his hands on her waist, her cue to lace her arms around his neck and their bodies would melt into one another till they seemed joined together.

This would go on for a little longer and then the two would separate for breath. He would try to continue and she would stop him. Shiki would settle for cuddling into her neck and promising to marry her as well as to cherish her forever. Rima would smile and agree with anything he said. The two would finally fall asleep and wake hours later even more tangled together than before. This was their love. Both fallen so deep for the other that they wouldn't recall solid land if they hit it. They were so wound up in the other there was no room for greed or selfishness as they only though of each other. They cared only that the other was happy, sparing nothing for their partner and wanting nothing in return. This was their love, a selfless and pure love with no rational reason. With no explanation for the past, no plans for the future, nor any justification for the present. Only each other.
