Author's note: Yes, you heard me right.

This will be a series of short but sweet oneshots (some are holiday-themed, while others aren't) that happen to take place after the events of 'The Four Maidens', and not only will most of them focus on each of the sisters and their chosen love interests, but there will also be one that focuses on Yui and Ayato, which I'm also starting off with, as well as bonus oneshots that feature two of the sisters and their interactions with each other.

So, with that said, I bring to you:

Love and Vampires

UPDATE (9/17/16): I forgot to do a Rose/Subaru vignette, so I decided to update one of the chapters with one such drabble. Sorry about that! ^_^;

Yui and Ayato: Christmas

The snow cascaded across the streets of Tokyo, and many couples were often seen enjoying a romantic night out together, as it was the Christmas season. Surprisingly, one such couple was Ayato Sakamaki and his wife, Yui Komori-Sakamaki.

"It's so beautiful when it's snowing at night, but I also like the glowing lights around the city." she told him.

"Yeah, it sure is." he replied with a nod.

It had been a few months after the Winchester sisters - Rose, Annabella, Catherine and Notia - visited the Sakamaki and Mukami brothers, and each girl had wedded the husband of her choice. Of course, each of the newly wedded couples had spent tonight either having dinner together, taking walks across the street, or staying in bed to 'enjoy each others' company'.

"Speaking of which, I managed to get something that you might like as an early present." he said.

"Really? What is that?" she asked.

Ayato was able to take out a rectangle-shaped box from one of his pants pockets and presented it to Yui, and she gently took it from his hands, proceeding to unwrap the gift that was meant for her and her only. She gasped as she discovered that inside the box, was a necklace with a red jewel in between a pair of wings.

"Wow...it's pretty!" she exclaimed, before putting the necklace around her neck.

"So do you like it?" he asked with a small grin.

"Of course, I do...I'm glad you got this for me, Ayato." she replied, before leaning in to kiss him sweetly on the lips.

He smiled, and it wasn't long before he wrapped his arms around him, enjoying the warmth of her body against his.

Rose and Shuu: New Year's Day

Back where she and her sisters came from, it was customary that many people in the UK would celebrate New Year's Eve on the 31st of December, until the big countdown. When the clock reached 12:00 AM, it was a new year, and everyone kissed and hugged their loved ones, hoping that the new year would be better than the previous one.

In Japan, however, it seemed a little different, as the New Year went from December 31 to January 4; and at the Sakamaki estate, Rose Winchester-Sakamaki was decked out in a pretty blue kimono, and had her hair done up in an elegant bun. She had never worn kimonos before, but was quite surprised at how beautiful they looked before she decided to try them on, although she also made sure it wasn't dirty.

"What do you think?" she asked.

Shuu Sakamaki, preferring to wear casual clothes, was able to nod his approval, and she couldn't help but smile at him. Unfortunately, vampires weren't supposed to come out during the daytime, as they'd fear they would be destroyed by the sunlight.

Fortunately, the shrine where the festivities were gathered was still going on at night, and thus, the newly married vampires were able to visit. Rose was curious enough to try and take an o-mikuji, which he didn't seem to mind.

Excitedly, she was able to give the people at the shrine some yen as an offering, so that she could get her fortune. When she unrolled the piece of paper, as it was a scroll in appearance, she smiled softly as she noticed that she obtained a kichi blessing.

"Don't you want to get your fortune?" she asked.

Shuu sighed, before removing his earbuds. He did the exact same thing as Rose, giving them yen, so that he would be presented with a fortune of his own.

After unrolling the paper, he discovered that he had a han-kichi blessing. "Not bad." he told her.

"Due to the blessings we got, this could be a good year for us both, and for my sisters and their loved ones." she said.

She held at one of his hands, and smiled up at him, prompting him to smile back, before he kissed her on the forehead. The two would then buy some mochi for themselves, as well as for Annabella and Laito/Kanato, and returned home to eat together.

Annabella and Kanato: Valentine's Day

"Pardon me, but who are those box of chocolates for?" Rose asked.

Annabella Winchester-Sakamaki sighed, and replied with, "They're for Kanato; did you get any for Shuu/Reiji/Subaru?"

"I believe so; I hope he'll be happy to have them." the elder Winchester said.

The second eldest Winchester nodded, and proceeded to wrap the box up in cute purple wrapping paper. After making sure her gift was ready, she stood up and exited the living room.

Meanwhile, Kanato Sakamaki was in his bedroom, which also happened to be Annabella's, sitting on the edge of his bed, hugging Daddy close to him. Since it was Valentine's Day, he was worried that his bride forgot about giving him a box of chocolates.

"Hey, Kanato." he almost flinched upon hearing her voice, and as he stood up, still clutching Daddy in his arms, he swallowed nervously.

"Di-Did you talk to Ayato? Or Laito?" he asked, the hidden need to kill her growing within him if he found out that she had an affair.

"No, I was speaking with Rose about the chocolates that I was gonna give you." she replied.

"Really?" he said, his eyes widening in surprise.

Annabella smiled, before she handed him the box of chocolates that she bought for him. "Catherine was going to make some homemade chocolates, but I guess buying a box ain't a big deal." she replied.

Kanato was able to put Daddy down onto the floor, and as he held the box in his hands, he unwrapped it, and upon opening it, he smiled. He looked up at her with unshed tears in his eyes, before she hugged him and smiled back.

"Happy Valentine's Day, cutie." she said, before kissing him full on the lips.

He sighed happily, and both of them would engage in a light-hearted conversation together while having a few chocolates together.

Catherine and Ruki: Girls' Day

It was a clear spring day, and it also happened to be the day before Girls' Day. Catherine Winchester-Mukami was busy placing each of the dolls in their respective locations, when the third eldest Winchester asked a question.

"Wh-What do dolls have to do with this h-holiday?" she asked.

"I researched the holiday on the internet, and it's said that dolls can ward off bad spirits." the blonde replied.

The blue-haired girl nodded her approval, but suddenly the mebina slipped out of her hands and nearly hit the floor, but her sister was quick enough to catch it, and placed it on the top platform. Once they had completed the placements, they stood back to revel in their accomplishments.

Catherine was able to make some chirashi sushi, as well as ushiojiru for Ruki Mukami, her husband (although the Notia wasn't good at cooking, but did all she could to make sure she didn't make any blunders while helping her older sister). Concerning her relationship with him, the shy young woman had been very obedient towards him, and whenever she tripped, dropped something, or burnt anything while cooking, he had gradually became lenient towards her.

He even thought that her constant stuttering in words was adorable, which often prompted her to blush.

Notia, on the other hand, even made some hishi mochi for herself and her husband, Kou/Azusa. When the two sisters went their separate ways for now, Catherine knocked on the door leading to her bedroom, which she shared with the eldest Mukami.

"Ruki...I-I have some f-f-food for the occasion!" she called out.

As the door opened, Ruki smiled at her, and asked, "How did you fare setting up the dolls with Notia?"

"Th-They're all set, a-although I nearly dropped o-one of them." she replied.

"That's good...by the way, what brought you to making food for us?" he asked.

"I-I wanted to i-i-impress you, th-that's all there is." she said.

"Oh, Cathy...you never cease to amaze me." he replied, before holding her in his arms (after she set down the food, of course) and kissed her deeply.

Bonus: Rose and Annabella

"Bloody hell, I hate sewing!" Annabella snarled.

The brunette had been invited by her older sister, Rose, to sew a new dress that she was going to wear to impress Shuu/Reiji/Subaru. However, the second eldest Winchester would rather practice her archery and even coerce Kanato/Laito to practice as well.

"Annabella, I understand why you don't want to take up sewing, but believe me, it'll be fun." the eldest Winchester replied.

"Are you kidding me? Last time that happened I ruined the fabric!" Annabella retorted.

Rose maintained her composure, and after a few talkdowns, the short-tempered Winchester gave in to her demands. Some time later, they were in the midst of completing the dress.

Annabella's clumsy hands were doing all they could to make sure they wouldn't make another knot or two, and as she got the hang of it as best as she could, she was able to pull it off almost decently. Her older sister was pleased with her progress, and after the dress was finished up, she gave her a hug and smiled.

"Not bad at all, Annie. However, there was a small gap in between where you forgot to sew, but still, you did well." Rose said.

"Yeah, I guess..." the brunette replied, nodding her approval.

Rose would then put on the dress, and as she showed it off to Annabella, the eldest Winchester didn't realize that a few of the buttons on the top popped out. The second eldest Winchester grinned and asked, "I guess you need to make that dress more form-fitting, don't you think?"

With a bright blush, her older sister could only giggle in embarrassment, and thus, they would wait for another day to get back to sewing together.
