Disclaimer: If I owned moon child , Hyde, or Gackt I wouldn't be writing this story. I do own Meika though!
Author's Notes: This is my first moon child fanfic! I'm addicted to it and this idea had been in my for a while. As much as I like Kei/Sho stories I also like Oc pairings so if don't like don't read it. Otherwise read and hopefully like it enough to leave a review!
It was a calm and cool night out as she walked down the street. In fact it was a little to cold for her as the young girl of 20 rubbed her bare arms. She was dressed in long black jeans and a tight maroon colored tank that exposed her stomach. Her ebony hair that extended half past her back blew in the breeze. Meika knew better, she should have brought her leather jacket with her but had instead decided to leave it behind thinking she wouldn't need it. Turns out she was wrong.
Meika finally realized she had found her way to the park. She saw families playing the dim lights of the street lamps lit her vision. She never had parents of her own she never had anyone. She kept walking until she walking down an alleyway that was kind of a short cut to where she was living as of now.
A chill ran down her spine and she wrapped her hands tighter around her arms. She wasn't sure if it was because of the temperature dropping or the fact that she had become increasingly anxious of every shadow around her. Alleys were not a friendly place to be in Mallepa especially at night. The uneasy feeling of being followed was growing more and more with each step she took through the darkness.
Stopping where she stood, Meika thought she heard footsteps behind her. When nothing else sounded she kept walking though upping her pace a bit. Her rare lavender colored eyes searched every which way.
Meika stopped again when she heard the footsteps again this time taking off in a sprint the rest of the way back. Quickly running inside the door and leaning against it to catch her breath.
A hand rested on her shoulder making her jump until she saw who it was and began to relax. Meika began to blush in embarrassment as she realized she was being stared at. She had interrupted a card game between Kei, Sho, Son, and Toshi, Yi-Che was just watching them.
"Are you okay?" she hadn't realized Kei had been questioning her but Meika managed to nod her head shakily and apologized to them for interrupting their game as she retreated to her room.
She didn't realize how freezing it really was until she felt the warmness of the house. Wanting nothing more then a warm shower to get rid of her goose bumps.
'Knock, knock'
"May I come in?" Kei's voice resounded through the door.
"Hai…" came the simple reply.
He opened the door and walked in to see she had taken a seat on her bed.
"Did something happen when you went out" he asked taking a seat beside her.
She shook her head and tried to give him a reassuring smile "it was probably just my imagination" she replied.
Standing up Meika walked towards the bathroom.
"So…if you don't mind, I was freezing my ass off so I would like to get a shower" she said with a smirk towards him.
Kei chuckled and stood up to walk towards the others.
"You're cheating aren't you?' Toshi's loud voice could've been heard a mile away.
Meika couldn't help but chuckle at the loudest mouth of the group.
"It seems Sho is beating them again" she stated leaning against the door to the bathroom with her arms crossed across her chest.
They always played cards and most of the time Sho or Kei would be kicking ass but she got a few good hands once in a while, as did Son and Toshi. Maybe she was wrong earlier; she had three brothers and a sister and growing relationship with Kei. Although the circumstances were exactly normal but she wanted to try. Even is she was only a mere human and he was a vampire. Meira wasn't exactly the type to open up easily to anyone. She was still working on her unresolved abandonment issues since being abandoned by her father after her mother died when she was four. Then she met Sho, Shinji, Toshi, and Kei when she was 6 and they took Meira in willingly.
She mostly stayed with Sho and Kei. At first, she thought of them both as her best friends but then she began to develop a crush on Kei when she was about 13. She already known he was a vampire the same time Sho found out and that fact didn't make her like him any less. Afraid of rejection she shied away from Kei a lot and didn't share her feelings with anyone.
It wasn't until a couple years ago when Kei decided to take it upon himself to find out why she distanced herself. Sho had also wondered the same thing before but she refused to tell him.
He had asked her to take a walk with him one night and she reluctantly said agreed to it. They had been silent for most of their walk until Kei grabbed her hand suddenly and Meika had given him a confused look.
"Kei wha-" she began to ask when he led her to a park bench and they sat down.
"Why do you try to avoid me?" he asked looking at her.
Meika turned her head away and looked down at her lap instead.
"Is it because I'm a monster?" he added.
Meika shook her head "you're not a monster…it's just that I…" she couldn't finish. How could she say she was in love with him and that she knew he didn't feel the same way?
He gave her hand a firm squeeze "what is it? You can tell me" he stated.
"What do you want me to say? That's I've had a crush on you since I was 13 and I know my love is an unrequited one! And that I'm stupid for having these feelings…" she was about to rant and it reminded him a lot when he and Sho would argue about Sho needing to get out more and not spend his life in the dark like Kei had. He could help but let a smile show as he watched her.
Truth was he deeply cared for this girl more then he wanted to admit for fear it probably wouldn't be right. To know she felt the same way kind of relieved him but at the same time scared him. He was a vampire, a monster, how could she be in love with someone like him? Even if he did say he feels the same way how could they even make it work?
He lost himself in thought that he almost didn't realize that she had gotten up to leave.
"Mei, chotto mata" he said coolly
Meika stopped and turned around to see he was already behind or rather now in front of her.
"Kei…" she breathed
Without thinking he dipped his head down towards her kissing her softly on the lips. The kiss surprised Meika but she kissed back closing her eyes. She felt his arms wrap around her waist and she wrapped her arms around his neck. She was the one to break the kiss and looked up at him. If he was willing to try then she was too.
Author's Notes: Not much going on but it will get more interesting! I'm gonna start working on the second chapter and hopefully reviews ask for the same thing!
