"What was this place called again, babe? A 'drive-in' movie?" Ayato asked, genuine curiosity laced within his tone. It was Halloween night and his first time around other humans except for myself, which already was kind of nerve wracking. He was so damn cute when he wanted to know something, often tugging at my sleeve and getting excited when he saw something anew.

Ayato Sakamaki was a vampire from a family that hadn't shown him any sort of love before, and he barely visited the human realm due to the lies he was fed as he grew by that very same family. I guess he was also afraid to be shunned, but what he didn't know that was we humans adored vampires and other mythical creatures. Especially me.

"Yes. I wanted to show you something new, something you told me you've been wanting to experiment for a while." The movie was "Halloween 3", one of my favorites of all time. I didn't know if Ayato liked horror movies as well, as it's not right for me to assume that just because he's a vampire he automatically likes creepy things. Surprisingly, I was the more goth and creepy looking/acting one in this entire relationship.

I think when the movie started, something clicked in his head.

"Oh! So is that why other people are here too? To watch the movie?"

"Yup," I took his hand in mine just then, intertwining our fingers and looked over at him with a slight smile. He held onto my hand with a slightly tight grip, staring back at me with those crescent emerald hues.

There wasn't any aspect of him I didn't like, and I always like to feel that it's the same for myself with him. The movie started a few minutes later, taking his eyes off of mine and onto the radio because the sound came in through it, his face was more surprised than it was when I drove into this place.

"WhaT THE HELL- WAIT!" He was so concerned that he aggressively rolled down the window, stuck his head out of it, and pulled it back in when he didn't hear anything from outside. Ayato did this a few times before asking me what happened, well, and he was so shocked that I laughed. I couldn't even help myself because he was absolutely the cutest thing, he fueled me with joy. "Just sit in the car and watch. Listen to the radio and relax a little, alright? I know this is your first time but you need to chill out, everything's okay. You're such a dork. I love you so much."

I leaned over from the driver's seat, planting a kiss on his cheek which in turn earned me a faint blush. How cute. He felt embarrassed, that much I could see, but he sat quietly and watched the movie until yet another question popped up in his head.

"Hey, Raina, I was wondering…What's so interesting about me? I don't understand how you can be so drawn to me, it's always shocking to think someone as yourself could possibly love someone like me. I'm a vampire and you're just a goth girl, which I guess can work well if you're into creepy kind of stuff.. right?"

Insecurity built up inside him so quickly almost all the time we were together, it made me almost feel the same, but I know my worth to him even if he has weird ways of showing it. "Give me your hand." He did as I told him to, but hesitantly.

Ayato was worried he was in for it now, possibly thinking I'm going to yell at him for asking such an idiotic question. But, to say the least, I wasn't angry at him for feeling the way he did. No malice of any sort formed inside my chest this time because I knew he needed reassurance, and that was exactly what I was going to give him.

I squeezed his hand gently and looked into those sad, emerald hued orbs.

"Ayato, don't ask such silly things like that. Why am I drawn to you? I could ask the same thing, and get more than one answer because that's just how we are. There are so many lovely aspects of the both of us that we can't name so abruptly, because I am just as serene and breathtaking to you as you are to me. I adore you, I love you, and I cherish you. We are a perfect fit in my eyes; you seem to completely me no matter what. You are correct, I am just a goth kid who enjoys the company of creepy persons or things since they spark my interest, but also because I feel as if I fit in more. You know? You are my soulmate! We have been together for so long now, and I can finally say I don't want anyone else in my life except you. Can't you feel that bond, too? I know I'm just a human that will perish soon. But I like to think I'd be by your side until I grow old and die, you know?" He began tearing up then, and for the most part, I was surprised. My face turned from calm to worried in just a matter of seconds, grabbing his arm and pulling him close to me. "Did I say something wro-" Before I could even finish, he bursted into tears.

"No! I just love you so much, I don't deserve you! You're such a perfect person, I am just still so shocked that you love me?! It's weird! And shut up about the dying thing! You know I won't let that happen to you! Ever!" We weren't even acknowledging the movie now, so I shut the radio off and held him close to me. I've never seen Ayato show such negative emotion before during the time we have been together, and now that it was my fault, I felt awful. "Baby, I'm sorry.. I shouldn't have said that, I didn't mean it. I love you."

"You really shouldn't have! You know I hate that kind of shit, Raina!" He cried for a couple more minutes before getting up and kissing my face, tear soaked cheeks brushing against mine as he just full on climbed into my seat with me, hanging onto me like a baby bat with its mother. We sat like this until he went back into his seat and held my hand with a tight grip, eyes gazed back to the movie. I didn't know what to feel except guilt, but he started to laugh. "What? What's so funny?" Ayato's thumb rubbed against the back of my hand. He turned his gaze back to me, smiling and I had to say I was kind of scared. I just made this man cry, but now he's laughing? "You really know how to make someone like me feel things, you know? I think it's funny!"

"You do?"

"Yes. I'm sorry I cried, I am! I just… I don't like to have a mindset that's so morbid, you know? I'm going to keep you alive until the day I die, too." His eyes flashed, he leaned in and licked the nape of my neck.

"A-Ayato- what are you doing?"

My entire body tensed as I felt his tongue glide up my skin, my eyes widening in fear and his smirk grinning into my neck. "I love you," he whispered before I let out a scream.
