This is an Onmyoji and Yokai pairing : A Yura Keikain x Rikuo Nura pairing.
Stolen for the Night
"I'm an Onmyoji." Yura proudly announces, closing her eyelids. There is a tender embrace from behind her standing petite teenage frame that makes her heartstrings start to melt to the warmth of this hug.
"Yura," Night Rikuo whispers, trailing off. He pulls her closer into his warmth. His white-black fringes overshadow his crimson eyes.
"You… You're a Yokai, Nura." Yura reminds Night Rikuo, pushing herself out of the tender embrace. "I'm an Onmyoji, Nura. We're sworn enemies."
"We're sworn allies because of 'you' and 'me'. We – you and I – are the Heads of the Nura and Keikain Clans." Night Rikuo counters, reaching to grasp her left hand in his. He twirls her around in a graceful swirling gesture to collide against the warmth of his chest.
Yura lifts her head up to meet his benevolent gaze with her soft gaze. The warmth of her cheeks becomes more of a visible shade of magenta. Her lips part to speak his name. "Nu…" His pressed fingertips prevent her from speaking as they are on her lips to silence her from speech.
Night Rikuo removes his fingertips from her lips to tenderly brush his backhand to brush her dark fringes from her face. He leans forward to plant his lips on her forehead. "Yura," He trails off, staring off in the shadowy distance. "You look good with long hair."
"Huh?" Yura said, pushing herself from him. Her head lowered from his sight to hide her scarlet face. "W-What… What are you talking about?"
"When you used that 'Shikigami Fusion'."
"I take it all back."
"Huh?"
"You've not matured, after all. Not even one bit."
"Yura," Night Rikuo said, placing his hands on her shoulders. He pulls her closer to him. "I'll always be here to catch you. Whenever you feel weary, Yura."
Yura remains silent to his tender warmth. Her eyelids blink, her brown eyes soften to his show of affections. "And, I'll always have your back, Nura." She said, elbowing him in the ribs. "If I don't. You'll just end up getting yourself killed."
Night Rikuo winces to the elbowing to his ribs. "You're always angry with me, Yura."
"Onmyoji and Yokai are…"
"… Enemies?"
Yura doesn't reply. She adverts her gaze elsewhere.
"I'll prove you wrong, Yura." Night Rikuo said, sniggering. Without warning, Night Rikuo lifts up Yura bridal style in his arms.
"Nura!" Yura screams at the top of her lungs. Night Rikuo leaps up into midair to whistle in victory of capturing a 'real' gemstone prize. An Onmyoji. "What do you thinking you are doing, Nura?"
"I'm 'stealing' you away for the evening, Yura."
"Eh?" Yura said flustered. Her inner thoughts linger in her mind.
Night Rikuo chuckles to himself of his victory. He, a ¼ Yokai that is the 3rd heir to Nura Clan, will lay claim to an Onmyoji that is the 28th heiress to Keikain Clan.
Ekosi.
AN: Okay, I like Yura x Night Rikuo pairing. Even though, their theme is 'friendship'. I used manga volume 23 for this inspiration. Yura saved Night Rikuo from being captured from the 5 element guy. She also uses her 'Shikigami Fusion' that gets her to have extra long hair. Night Rikuo opens up to Yura on what he wants to protect without really saying anything more. Between Night Rikuo x Yura their friendship really does shine more brighter than Yuki-Onna and Kana because their equal rivals.
Happy Valentine's Day.
