Note: Hey there! I'm writing this silly story to heal myself from the very angsty Death and the Maiden! So, if you want a serious fic, read that one. This one is silly. Also, this story will be attempting to complete the the 30 day OTP challenge, so chapters will be shorter than normal. Hope you like it anyway!


"Sorry, but... Don't hurt my girlfriend without my permission..." Azusa snatched Yui from the brink of death with a hand on her arm.

Yui gasped. G-girlfriend!? Since when? No, no-priorities! Yui refocused: Kanato-kun tried to kill her by pushing her out a window for being a dirty traitor. She had to escape!

"Shut up! I don't care!" Kanato screamed. "This time I'm going to-"

Azusa sighed. "No, you're not..."

This murder attempt was not Kanato's first; it had become a bizarre routine for Yui to be saved by Azusa, who once again grabbed Teddy and made Kanato howl. Azusa tossed the toy bear down the hallway stairs, scooped Yui up, and jumped out of the window holding her in his arms.

Yui smothered a scream of her own, but the full moon peeked out from behind it's cloud blanket; Azusa could fly tonight.


When Azusa landed in the park, Yui clung to the grass on her knees. She didn't vomit, thankfully. Flying was not fun.

Full moons are always so scary, Yui thought, peeking at Azusa.

Her vampire guard looked more lively than usual with a grin on his face. Other than that, though, he hadn't demanded payment through her blood or anything else. Instead, Azusa waited for her to stand up before he caught her hand. "Let's go home together… by ourselves, okay?"

Yui stuttered out an okay, now remembering that Azusa said she was his girlfriend.

Azusa didn't let go as he led her across the grass. His hand was cool and scarred, and his fingers gripped her tight enough to hurt, but…

Yui's heart couldn't take it. Holding hands with a boy who announced he was your boyfriend-even without your permission-was a lot of excitement! Especially because it was Azusa-kun, who had been sort of nice to her. He was the only vampire she'd met who didn't say nasty things about her or treat her like a pest. But Azusa acted strange and frightening, too...

Yui decided to broach the subject delicately, swinging her free arm. "Holding hands… We almost look like a couple, don't we?"

"Almost?" Azusa stopped, and tugged on her hand so she stopped, too. "Are we... not a couple?"

"U-um..." Yui's trapped hand felt sweaty and hot.

Yui should correct him. They were not dating, goodness, no, they were... well, captor and captive! He and his brothers abducted her from the Sakamaki mansion and wouldn't let her leave-how on earth had he got it in his head that there was anything romantic between them?

After all, Yui never even answered the outrageous question he poised when they first met: "Do you...like me?"

"I thought… you accepted my confession?" Azusa's pale eyes filled with sorrow.

When? Did that time even count as a confession? Yui pursed her lips.

This was… weird, but… Even if she didn't understand, maybe she should go along with this? Everyone got more emotional during the full moon, and Yui didn't know Azusa well enough to say he wouldn't get angry about being corrected. Or rejected.

Besides, this wasn't nearly as scary as Azusa's delusions about pain and the "friends" he introduced to her, so maybe it'd be okay?

Yui looked away and lied, "O-of course... I misspoke…"

Azusa giggled. It was a very cute sound, but it still made Yui's stomach clench. "That's right... I'm your boyfriend…" He pressed his free hand to his mouth. "Oh, but… what do boyfriends do? I've never had a girlfriend before."

Yui blinked. "I've never had a boyfriend, either."

"Ah. We're the same…" Azusa smiled.

So they were… One side of Yui's mouth lifted.
