'It has been almost a week since Mikan stopped coming' Natsume sighed and crossed his arms behind his head
"I wonder if I should go and see how she is doing" he sighed and continued to watch the stars. He missed his fair maiden.
After the incident, Natsume kept waiting for Mikan every night but she never showed up
The next day
"Mikan please come out, it's Anna. I have your favorite biscuits" but the brunette locked herself up in her room and refused to come out. Her neighbours kept on knocking on her door and calling out for her but she still refused to see anyone
"We haven't seen Mikan since days" Nonoko, one of Mikan's friends and neighbours said. That afternoon some of her friends gathered in front of her room, and tried to talk with her but she wouldn't let them in. They were seriously worried about the brunette
"It isn't that easy for her" Yuu sighed "Rei's gone now" Yuu and the rest knew Rei and they liked him a lot. They were aware of Rei and Mikan's feelings for each other and how his parents refused to let him marry Mikan
"His death caused a huge impact on her. Since Marika-san and Akito-san have told her, she fell in depression" Misaki gripped the basket that she was carrying harder "I want our Mikan-chan back"
"So do we, but we did all we could" Koko shrugged and ruffled his hair
"I think that we should leave her alone for now. Eventually she will realise that what she's doing is wrong" the rest nodded dully and left but not before leaving some biscuits and fruits and flowers, hoping that their friend would come out and find the presents
The room from the inside was dim. All the curtains were closed and only thin rays of sun peeked through the windows
Mikan was sitting on her bed, curled into a ball. Her arms were wrapped around her knees and her face was buried in between. She climbed down from her bed and walked over to the drawer, where a white rose was kept in a blue vase
"Rei" Mikan reached for its petals and caressed them gently "Why did it end up like this?"
"After all that we went through" she smiled sadly "After your parents finally agreed to let us be together"
"Why did you have to leave me alone Rei?" she shrieked and hit the mirror making it break to small pieces. Mikan didn't mind her injured hand and stared at the blood that fell on the white rose making it seem as if was crying bloody tears
She continued to stare at it for a while, then she shook her head and held her hand tighter "No I can't" she said under her breath and went to wash the blood away
Sun began to set and Mikan was still in her room. The rose in her hands with some blood droplets on its petals
"Chi (Blood)...Rei...What if I join him?" she walked over to her closet and rummaged through some old boxes, searching for a black one with special designs on the outside
"This is the one" she took the box and opened it "It has been a long time since I last saw this" she took the dagger that belonged to her father. After he died he gave it to Mikan so that she could remember him and Mikan kept it for all those years
"I lost all of my precious ones" she played with the dagger and examinated it. Mikan looked at her wrist and used the weapon to slash it. Blood oozed out, she let out a small smile
"The blood... moves slowly... I wish that life moved slowly too. But it doesn't, you never know what is going to happen next. You don't know when you will loose all of your loved ones and be left alone" suddenly, her tears fell from her eyes "Why don't I feel any pain? Why does it seem as if I am numb? This is insane! I don't understand anything ! "
She brought the dagger to her chest "Mou I have lost my grandfather then mother and father. And now I lost the only person whom truly I loved" she chuckled humorlessly "If I kill myself I won't see the people I care for leave me alone right?"
Just when she was about to stab herself, her window burst open and a figure came through it
"Nani?" the dagger was thrown away and hit the wall. Then Mikan felt a power pinning her to the cold wall too
She looked at the person before her eyes. He had raven hair and crimson eyes that shone in the dark room and he wore a long trench coat
"Who are you?" she panicked as he moved forward and neared her. Mikan tried to struggle but she couldn't move at all "How do you know my name?"
"My fair maiden" she was freed from whatever was tiying her but she found herself in the arms of that stranger
"Please, let go of me" she pushed him away but he only held her tighter
"Mikan come with me and be my bride" Natsume whispered in her ear
"Who are you?" she asked him. He let go of her and gazed at her lovely face
"Natsume"
"Natsume-san! how do you know me?" he looked away
"I watched you for a while, near that stream. Each night, you'd come in your cloak and cry "
"I thought I was alone when I went there, why didn't you show yourself?" she replied calmly. Mikan was surprised at how much calm and composed she was, maybe because she doesn't care if her life was in danger she thought
"No it's just that..." he swallowed the lump that was in his throat
"what?" she crossed her arms over her chest
"I...I thought that if I showed myself to you, and if you knew the real me...you might push me away from you" she was confused
He closed his eyes and when he opened them, she gasped and covered her mouth with her hands
"Becase I am a vampire and you are human, and even though we are different .." Mikan backed with every step he took forward "..I fell in love with you Mikan" he lifted her chin with his fingers
'Iee don't touch me...stay away'
"I want you to stay by my side, as mine Mikan...as My fair maiden" Mikan breathed in and calmed herself
'I'm going to die anyway'
"I can't Natsume-san.." she took his fingers and pushed his hand down "This is not going to work"
"Why?"
"Because I have to join my fiancee. I realised, I can't live without him" she smiled at him
Upon hearing her words, Natsume got furious and grabbed her shoulders. He shook her none so gently "You are still thinking about that bastard even thought he's dead? why can't you see how much I love you Mikan?"
The brunette didn't reply, she just studied his face and then she blurted out "You killed Rei?" he let go of her and didn't utter a word. His silence confirmed it
She cried "You were the one who killed him? Why?" she punched his chest "Doushite?"
Natsume felt bad for making her cry "He was going to take you away from me" Mikan glared at him
"I wasn't yours in the first place" she pushed him back "You killed the one I loved the most"
"I couldn't stand the thought of him holding you in his arms" Natsume growled. He was very angry that she couldn't get over Rei
"Mou, I don't want to hear anything from. I suffered because of you!"
"I hate you!" he wanted to protest but her words hurt him so much that Natsume was speechless. When he had the idea of getting rid of Rei, he didn't think that it will end up with Mikan hating him
He cursed himself for acting so irrashional "What are you doing ?" he saw her take the dagger and point it at her heart. He tried to stop her but everything seemed to happen fast
And the next thing he knew was him kneeling on the floor as he caught Mikan's fragile body. Mikan was panting and sweating hard
Natsume held her in his arms and stroked her hair "Mikan don't leave me please. Why did you do that?" even though he saw and smelled her blood, he fought his instinct and concentrated on the brunette who was about to die
She winced as she felt pain "...I..want to...be with Rei" she closed her eyes "Sayonara" and lost conscious
'No! after all that I have done to make her mine...I can't afford to let her slip away from me...Please be alive' he felt her still breath but hardly "I guess it can't be helped" he bit his arm and sucked some blood
Then he lifted her body and brought her neck close to his mouth. He bit her, after a while she gained conscious again and let out an ear piercing scream
"Mikan, Mikan!" she opened her eyes and found a pair of gentle crimson orbs looking at her. He chuckled then smiled "Were you having a nightmare sweetheart?" he helped her stand up and kissed her forehead
"I had that dream again, Natsume" she hugged him and rested her head on his chest and closed her eyes, enjoying the moment
"It's just a dream sweetheart" Natsume stroked her hair "Don't mind it" he sighed. And they fell in silence
"I'm glad that you are here Natsume" she looked up at him and kissed him on the lips. Natsume wrapped his arms around her and deepened the kiss
"I'm hungry, I need some blood to drink..." she pecked him again and stood up " I'll wait for you outside, alright?" he nodded and watched her as she left. Natsume smiled to himself
"No I'm happy to have you Mikan" his expression became cold as he felt someone nearing their bedroom
"Natsume! is everything alright?" Ruka asked. The blond vampire entered Natsume and Mikan's bedroom, followed by Hotaru
The raven just nodded "Yes, everything is fine. You don't have to worry"
But they didn't move and just kept looking at him. Ruka was worried about his friend while Hotaru was studying him with keen eyes
"What?" he asked impatiently
"Did she recall some of her past ?" Hotaru raised her eyebrow
Natsume adverted his gaze to the window and found Mikan playing with her familiar. He taught her how to create one last month
"I can't say that she did but.." he sighed " recently she had been seeing some memories in her dreams"
"It will be troublesome if she remembered everything" Ruka frowned " Natsume, what are you going to do if that happens?"
Natsume balled his hands into fists until his knuckles turned white "To tell the truth I don't know" he walked past Ruka and Hotaru "I just have to make sure she doesn't or I'll lose her forever" and left to join Mikan
The two vampires watched through the window, Natsume and Mikan as they hugged each other and went for their usual night walk in the mansion's garden "I guess this is what we can call an unrequited love?" Ruka asked
"Yes, you are right Ruka. I still can't understand why did Mikan forget about her past when Natsume changed her into one of us?"
"Me too, but I'm kind of grateful. If she didn't lose her memory then she wouldn't accept to live here nor accept Natsume's proposal to become his wife"
"Ruka what do you think of this?" he shook his head
"I'm not sure but this is the first time that I saw Natsume this happy" he beamed at his friend that was now chasing Mikan "that's why I'll do anything so that Mikan will remain here with us"
"Even if it might hurt him to continue to love her, knowing that her feelings aren't totally pure?"
"Yes, that too. Besides, Natsume doesn't seem to mind though" she nodded
"Hmm. Then we shall do the same, he's our Leader but more importantly he is our friend" Ruka took her hand in his and kissed it
"How about we spend some time together near the fire place hmm?" she smiled
"Of course, it's a little bit cold right?" she let him drag her
