Neji Hyuga-My Rose And Your Blood-003
-Rose Three-
The next night. The same thing again. But for some reason I can't get that boy, sir Hyuga out of my head. He is just a boy, much too young for my old lasting soul.
No. My soul has long left me. I am just an empty shell taking up space in this pitiful universe. To be struck on this planet for hundred and twenty-two years is like repeating something unexplainably horrid. My wish was to die with my husband at an old age, knowing my many children were still alive and happy. But I died the night I was married by poison. I was vexed ever since.
And even now, as I walk this dense forest in search of blood, I am crossed with myself and the person who killed me. I am crossed with the fact that, that old vampire had to turn my dead body into a vampire just to have a female by his side. And I am cross at the fact that I cannot find a single male around here for blood, not even sir Hyuga.
But I suppose, since no human male is here tonight, I shall go to my garden and watch the moon slowly die out into the sun. But by then, I shall be gone from the garden and inside my small cave. My visit with my roses will be very short, but I will enjoy it anyways.
And to my surprise when I walk into the garden of roses, is sir Hyuga sitting alone, admiring my roses and moon above them. He doesn't notice me, in fact, it seems that he is sleeping and not looking at my roses. I could be here admiring my roses and he wouldn't bother me. Or I suck his blood without even a whimper from him and then leave. He would be out of my mind forever.
Though I just don't have the urge for sucking his blood. Even thinking about it makes me have this unreal feeling.
"Roesia." Sir Hyuga, when did he awake? Or was I wrong about the fact that he was asleep? But that voice. Why did I gasp when I heard it? And why is it that I find it so delightful? That unexplainable feeling in my stomach coming back when I see his face or when he speaks. What does it mean?
"Sir Hyuga. I didn't see you here in the garden. I apologize if I am bothering your alone time. It's just that I love red roses. May I sit down?" With a nod from him, I take my spot next to him. His heated body and pulsing blood radiates off of him. Soon I find myself having this strong urge to glide my hand across his cheek and down his arm. But I restrain myself, knowing if I dont, he would feel very much appalled and leave. I could not bear it if he were to do that.
And so we sit there, quietly admiring our surroundings. My hand wonders over to the rose next to me and fingers its delicate petals. I sense his white eyes watching me intently. His gaze is heavy and burns on my back.
"Sir Hyuga, I am reluctant to say that my time here has ended. I must take my leave. Shall I see you again sometime?" My finger still lingers on a petal as I await the words I so much wish to hear. Though I know to wish is something only little children do and ends only in tears, I shall still try this once.
"Roesia Pansy McCuen. I shall see you again sometime." How lovely he said my name. If I were that kind of lady, I would kiss him right here and now. But sadly I am not and I must be off. I sun will be up soon and I have a long distance to go before arriving inside my small cave.
"How splendid. Well then sir Hyuga, I shall take my leave. Goodnight." And with a curtsy, I sweep away toward my cave where I shall dream pleasant dreams of ill-suitable events. And maybe tomorrow will be different from all the others I have had. Maybe.
Neji's Pov:
Roesia Pansy McCuen. A very strange girl. She only appears at night, drinks blood from a human's neck, talks very differently from me and everybody else I know, loves red roses, and is very attractive.
"Did I just think attractive? I can't possibly be... No. That's unreal. I mean, I'm not even sure she's real. She drinks blood. I can't... Can I? It's impossible. All I know is that she is a mystery I am going to solve. I need information about her. Tsunade has files about everyone. I'll ask her."
I sit in the garden for the rest of the night, slowly watching and waiting for the sun to appear. Its nearly 5:30am, and soon I'll have to go the training. My third night without sleep. This could cause a problem with my training, but I'll worry about that some other time. Right now I'm to busy learning about Roesia.
Whoever that girl -- thing -- is, I'm going to figure it out. No matter what.
