" Seriously, Yu!" I groaned. " He started it!" Yu protests. I had just left for a few minutes to put on clothes. Only when I came back, Yu had a black eye and it wasn't there before. " Mika, did you start a fight?" I asks the blue eyed vampire.
" Yu-chan, tried to attack me." Mika simply replied, while glaring at Yu. " Can't you get rid of him?" Yu asks me. " You're older than me, so you shouldn't be the kid here." I respond. Yu mutter something under his breath. " Mika knows my brother. So, he's staying." I told Yu, as I finish tending to his eye.
" Okay, but don't expect me to instantly become friends with him." Yu finally says. I smiled at his answer, and started on my breakfast. " So, what party are you going to?" Yu questions me. " A regular party being thrown by a elf." I replied.
" An elf?" Mika questions. "She's a friend of Aiden's, I can't say no." I told him. " Funny, you can't say no to people who know Aiden." Yu comments. If I wasn't nice, I would throw something at him. " Aiden has been missing for days. I need all the help I can get." I remind him.
" Listen, today is Saturday. I can go to the police station, and get someone to take notice." Yu tells me. " That sounds great! Take Mika with you." I said, while finishing to pancakes. " NO WAY!" They both yell out. " Yu, I will tell Shinoa your secret. Mika, you said you are my protector." I told them. Mika looked annoyed, while Yu looked horrified.
" Fine, you win!" Yu exclaimed. I watch them leave, before eating. I knew that Mika being here, will get Yu riled up. " But, if Aiden told Mika to watch over me. Doesn't it mean that Aiden is dying?" I ask myself. I shook my head. " Aiden is too stubborn to die." I thought.
But, suddenly I'm feeling that Aiden is becoming a stranger now. " Am I really doing this?" I ask myself. It was finally evening and the party was starting. " You look fine." Mika reassured me. "You only known me for one day!" I complained.
I was wearing a white dress that didn't look like me at all. " I prefer shorts, leggings or skirt with leggings." I commented. Aiden didn't like me wearing skirts, after the wind blew my skirt once. I actually listen, because a boy my age saw my panties.
" Put shorts on under your dress." Mika suggests. I immediately brighten up. " Thank you, Mika!" I exclaimed happily, while pushing him out of my room. I put on my shorts and went down stairs.
" Wish me luck!" I called out, as I went out the door. I manage to walk all the way to the mansion. " Welcome everyone, to my party!" A blond hair elf called out. I approached her, but I hesitated. " What am I doing?" I thought.
I immediately went inside a private room. The room happen to be the library. " Wow!" I whispered in amazement. I looked around in joy, I never felt this happy in a while. " Escaping the crowd?" A girls voice asked.
" No, I just needed a place to think." I replied. That's when I realized, I wasn't alone. I spun around fast, and almost fell. If the other girl didn't catch me. " Whoa, your clumsy!" She giggled, while helping me up.
She was obviously a vampire with her red eyes. I manage to take in her features. She has long dark purple hair and bangs that cover her left eye, a black headband on her head, a sleeveless dress that was black at the chest area and white at the skirt that open to show her legs. I also notice she had black sleeves that wasn't attached to the dress.
" Are you through checking me out!" She teased. " I wasn't checking you out!" I exclaimed in embarrassment. I wish my cheeks didn't burn now. " Liar! I saw you looking me up and down!" She laughs. " Okay, fine I checked you out." I admit.
The female vampire starts laughing harder. " I'm not mad or anything. I'm just happy that a girl was actually taking a notice to me." She told me, after calming down. " Why would you be happy?" I ask. " Because, I'm a boy." She replied with a small giggle.
" Really!?" I thought in surprise. The male vampire picked up a book and looked at the cover. " So, what were you thinking about?" He ask me. "A lot of things. First, my older brother disappears and nobody can help. Then, a sixteen years old guy appears saying my brother sent him." I said, while my chest aches at remembering that Yu and Mika didn't get anywhere at the police station.
" I can help." The vampire tells me. "Really?" I question. " Yeah, I just need to talk it out with my sister first." He replied. " I'm Serenity Valentine." I introduced myself, I was feeling very happy now. " I'm Asuramaru, but just call me Asura." Asura introduced himself.
" Hey, you're crying." Asura says suddenly. I touch my face and realize that I am crying. " Am I really that happy?" I thought. Asura gave me a questioning look. " Sorry, I'm just really happy." I told him. This seems to satisfy him, as he wipes away some tears on my face. I couldn't help, but shudder at how cold his skin was. " Sorry, I forget that vampires only feel cold." He apologizes.
" That must be hard." I comment. Asura just nods and for a little while, everything was quiet. " Hey! What are you two doing in here?" The hostess asks suddenly. I never heard the door open. Asura looked surprise too. " Amber, keep your parties small next time!" Asura complains, while he left the room.
" Amber, I'm Aiden's little sister. Can you tell me about my brother?" I question her. " Aiden? Oh yeah, he was my boyfriend!" She giggles. " That's it?" I asks feeling despair. " Yep!" Amber replied cheerfully.
I ran out of the library. I didn't stop running, until I got home. " Serenity, what's going on?" Mika asks me, the moment I came in. I just hug him, while sobbing. Mika was probably surprise, but I felt him hug me back. After calming down, I told Mika everything. He listen and told me to get some sleep.
I didn't protest. I changed into my pajamas and crawled into bed. " Aiden, just where are you?" I thought sorrowfully, while falling asleep. " Good morning, sweetie." A female voice called out. " Mom?" I ask groggy. I got up to see, a sixteen years old girl with a teasing grin.
" Shinoa? Did Yu bring you over?" I ask. " Yep, he's downstairs glaring at Mika." Shinoa replied. " Are they ever going to get along?" I question. " They met yesterday, so no." She sighed. I mentally agreed. I changed into a pink shirt and grey shorts. I then followed her downstairs. " Yu, stop glaring at Mika!" I chided him.
" Fine! But, he better behave!" Yu announces. " You need to behave!" I thought exasperated. " Serenity, someone called for you." Mika told me. "Who?" I ask. " She said her name was Asura. She mention something about your brother." Mika replied, while giving me a questioning look.
Immediately I redial the number. " I was wondering if you were calling back!" Asura giggles. " Did your sister agreed to help?" I ask. " She's still considering, but maybe we can see each other again?" Asura suggests. " Sure, when do you want to hang out?" I ask feeling my heart race. " I'm free tomorrow." He replied.
" Tomorrow it is!" I exclaimed happily. " Good, you really got my attention late night. And not a lot of people get my interest." Asura told me, before hanging up. I put up the phone and stare at it. " Little Serenity got a date!" Shinoa exclaimed. " What!" Yu shouts.
" Doesn't she have school tomorrow?" Mika asks. " She's Homeschooled." Yu tells him. " I'm right here!" I complained. I got ignored, so I made my breakfast. " Is this really a date?" I thought nervously. Then I remember calling Shinoa mom. " I hope she doesn't tell anyone." I thought. My parents have been dead for years now.
" Serenity, do you need a chaperone for your date?" Yu asks me. " My date is a vampire. I'm sure I will be safe with him." I reassured the black hair teen. " How do you know?" Yu questions with a huff. Mika glares at Yu. " If you have something to say. Just say it!" Mika demands.
" Fine! I hate you bloodsuckers!" Yu shouts looking somehow satisfied. "Mika looked very angry, before anyone knew it. He's sword was pressed against Yu's throat. " I didn't ask to change into a vampire! I was actually human before!" Mika shout angrily.
I stood in my spot stun. I wanted to stop this, but my mind said wait. Eventually, Mika put his sword away. I watched him go upstairs. " I didn't know." Yu whispers. " Wait for him to calm down. Then you can apologize." I told Yu. Yu and Shinoa decided to leave before anything else happens.
I found myself alone again. I sighed as I continued making my breakfast. " At least, Yu might change his mind about Mika." I thought. I wonder how I would feel about tomorrow?
Next up is the date and Yu apologize to Mika. I plan for Mika and Yu to start having romantic feelings for each other soon. The other pairing, is still being decided. But, I'll come up with something. See you guys later!
