Riku Do I like you? How can I like someone I do not even know?

It was study hall and I found myself drawing the vampire in my sketchbook again. It was the fourth one I drew of him today. The first one was him leaning against the tree in the court like he does every morning, staring lifeless at the sky.

The second was him glaring at Axel, I had draw Axel with his smug smirk. I wondered what he said to make Riku mad? The third was when I saw him sleeping on his desk in an empty classroom, and the forth was when I saw him smirk at me when he caught me looking at me.

Lunch. The worst part of the day, mostly because it was Seifer beat Sora hour. I silently counted down from 5 and when I hit zero he was dragging me out towards the bathroom. Before he could even drag me in I was ripped away from him and dragged back into the lunch room and dropped onto Rikus lap.

"Thank you Axel." Riku said and wrapped his arms around me possessively.

"No problem, cant have Seifer damaging your mate ,can we?"

I Stared at Riku in shock. "Mate?"

All I could was blush and bury my face in his neck.

"I take this as yes"

Nothing else happened till I was at my locker getting my books to take home. I turned around to see a text book flying at my face and Seifer yelling at me.

"Faggot!"

Before I could react I found Riku was in front me catching the book and throwing into the back of Seifers head. It hit him so hard he feel face first into the floor. Riku then grabbed my hand and lead me out the school and toward his black sports motorcycle.

I took one look at the bike and backed up into Rikus chest. He laughed. A sound I knew no one had ever heard.

"Dont worry, you wont fall off."

The whole way home was terrifying. It was as if he was trying to go as fast he could. He ran every stop light and stop sign. My arms were wrapped so tight around him they went numb by the time he pulled into my mile long drive way.

I was what one would say a rich kid. I lived in a three story old Victorian house with parents who were never home. When they were my mom was cheating on dad, and he was beating till I was near death.

Waithow did he know were I lived?

"I used to live here, years ago..."

"Anyway, about my proposal..."
