Made for Each Other

Chapter Four: Middle of the Night

Tonight I'm staring at the moonlight
Tonight I'm wondering how this could've felt so right
And I could say it was a good time
But I can hardly say a thing
He's got you right where he wants you
Right where he wants you

"Did I just imagine that?" Ranmaru asked, turning towards Yuki and Takenaga who were sitting with him in the living room.

"Imagine what?" Takenaga looked up from the book he had been immersed in.

"I could have sworn I just saw Sunako…" Ranmaru trailed off as he began to doubt himself.

"No…I saw it too." Yuki confirmed. "Sunako was practically skipping towards the kitchen." Takenaga's mouth dropped. Sunako did not skip.

"Skulls and bones, bones and skulls…" Sunako happily sang a made up tune as she prepared dinner. Takenaga, Ranmaru, and Yuki peeked into the kitchen, curious about her behavior since she had arrived home. "Ghosts and zombies rising from their graves…" She gave a small menacing giggle as she gave off a dark purple aura as she continued chopping. Whatever she was so happy about, they probably didn't want to know. The three boys snuck away before they she noticed them or her song became too graphic.

"Seems like ordinary Sunako to me." Yuki stated once they were out of earshot. The other two nodded in agreement.

"Though she does seem to be in an exceptionally good mood." Takenaga observed.

"That's it!" Ranmaru declared, still making sure he wasn't loud enough for Sunako to hear. "It must be love!"

"Love?" The two other boys said in unison, hearts forming in their eyes.

"But of course!" The ladies' man stood up and sparkled as he took one of his many elegant, storytelling stances . "Our words earlier must have reached Sunako. As she walked through the quiet streets she began to think of Kyohei; his handsome face, his golden hair, his…" Ranmaru paused for a moment. "Well his personality isn't that great…but oh how she worried about him being so depressed-"

"Oi, I ain't depressed!" Kyohei interrupted. He had come downstairs in hopes of finding out who the person with Sunako had been. "How many times do I have to tell you?"

Ranmaru rolled his eyes and continued as though nothing had happened. "and talk to her once again."

"I'm still here!"

"But feelings such as these began to confuse our darling Sunako. Why would she have such thoughts about such a dazzling creature? As she bought her groceries she must have seen numerous happy couples walking down the street and it hit her…it must be love!" Ranamaru's final declaration fell on deaf ears.

"I don't think that's it." Takenaga frowned.

Ranmaru went to Kyohei and took his hands. "It's all up to you now! I bet she's in there making a feast so she can confess her love!" Kyohei pushed him away.

"I'm not in the mood for this." He growled before stomping back upstairs.

"He's starting to sound like Noi." Yuki added, making Takenaga blush slightly before going back to his book.

oOoOOoOOOoOOoOo

A while later Sunako began bringing out dinner, and the three helped set the table. "Sunako, why don't you go get Kyohei? We can finish this." Takenaga said calmly.

"Eh?" The dark girl looked horrified. "I'll melt if I go into that creature's room! You do it."

"Unfortunately," Ranmaru draped an arm around her. "He's mad at us about some things we mention earlier." At this Sunako rolled her eyes. Wasn't he always mad about something? Ranmaru leaned in closer and whispered in her ear, "You should do it."

Sunako shuttered and shoved him away. Which would be more bearable: Ranmaru harassing her, or Kyohei harassing her? Ranmaru wasn't as dazzling, but she could punch Kyohei guilt free since he could fight back….decisions, decisions. She sighed in defeat. She'd rather punch Kyohei. "Fine." Sunako trudged upstairs to the bright creature's room.

She paused outside the door. It was just a room right? Yes. It was just a room. Sunako knocked on the door as quietly as she could. No one's home. She thought triumphantly before turning around and heading for the stairs.

"You have to at least try!" She heard the boys shout from downstairs when they heard her coming. Damn. Caught. She turned back around knocked on the door. Much to the goth girl's disappointment, this time it worked.

"What do you want?" She heard the familiar voice call out and Sunako opened the door, but didn't step inside. She saw Kyohei standing at the far side of the room looking out the window, he leaned back and turned his head over his shoulder to look at her as she opened the door. "You can come in yaknow."

"It's time fo-AH!" Sunako stopped short when she saw something very important sitting on Kyohei's nightstand. "MY ICE CREAM!" She rushed into the room, not even thinking about the brightness of it anymore. The room in fact was not very 'bright' at all, but rather contained a mess that would rival her own. "I was saving that! It was mine!" She pointed to her name, clearly marked.

"Must have missed that." He turned around to face her completely now that she was going to make a scene, and indeed she was. Sunako picked up the container, thick with condensation, and felt something swish inside. She took off the lid and her eyes took on reddish demonic glow. "Oi! Calm down!"

"You didn't…even…eat…it?" She growled the words out slowly, one by one.

"I'll buy you a new one." The boy put up his hands in defeat, but his words went unnoticed by the girl whose hair was now blowing up in a dark whirlwind of her own creation.

"Not only do you steal my ice cream, but you have the NERVE to waste it!" Sunako marched towards him.

"I said I would buy you a new one!" He shouted this time.

"Oh." Sunako magically transformed back into her ordinary, scary self. That was easy. Usually he put up more of a fight.

"Geez." Kyohei huffed in annoyance. "Is that all you wanted?"

"Oh, I came to get you for dinner." She explained, and was about to turn around when she heard his response.

"I'm not hungry." Sunako's jaw dropped. Kyohei was always hungry. Mention of Kyohei being depressed popped into her head. Was he? No…maybe sick? Without really thinking about it, she walked the short distance left between them and put a hand on his forehead, making sure not to look directly at him of course.

"No fever…" She thought aloud to herself as she started to pull her hand away. However, before she could, Kyohei grabbed her wrist and turned her so she actually faced him. Their eyes met and she froze; a deer in the headlights. Despite her best efforts she couldn't seem to move, and she could feel her heartbeat rise. This reminded her of something…but she wasn't sure what. The dazzling creature stared down at her in an attempt to figure out was she was thinking. She really was kind of pretty…in her own way. Even now, without make-up and in sweats, she wasn't ugly. But, what was it he had intended to do just now? He didn't even know.

Sunako snapped out of it and shoved him away with all of her strength. She held her hand to her face to catch as much of her nosebleed as she could as Kyohei fell back into the bed. "Stop being dumb and come eat." She muttered as she headed out the door.

"Who's being dumb!" Kyohei shouted back as he followed her down the stairs. "You the one who just got all possessed over ice cream!"

Takenaga, Yuki, and Ranmaru had already started eating and turned just in time to see the fighting match that ensued down the staircase. Things looked like they were back to normal between the two.

oOoOOoOOOoOOoOo

"Class D, may I have your attention." The teacher at the front of the room announced. "We have a new student joining us."

Yuki looked towards the front of the class. New students were always exciting! The teacher motioned as said student stepped into the room. "Please welcome Oshiro Haru."

A chill ran through everyone in the class as they laid eyes on him, including Yuki. This boy frightened him as much as Sunako, and he was used to her…though she was still really scary most of the time.

oOoOOoOOOoOOoOo

"Shiori, isn't that new student your cousin?" A group of girls in class B were talking between classes.

"Y-yeah." The girl who was now the center of attention answered hesitantly. "Why?"

Noi's ears perked up at the sound of fresh gossip and immediately joined the group. As the most popular girl in school, it was her job to keep track of these types of things you know. "We have a new student?"

oOoOOoOOOoOOoOo

Meanwhile, in his class Kyohei was fast asleep. He was never one to care about the newest buzz going around school anyway. "Takano Kyohei!" The professor shouted causing him lift his head up groggily and all the girls in the class to shoot daggers. "Class is not the time to take a nap. Do you want to take make up exams again?"

"Maybe he had a rough night!" One of the girls butted in. Kyohei took advantage and nodded his head causing several concerned coos from the girls.

"Wake me up for lunch…" He mumbled, laying his head back down. In reality his 'rough night' had consisted of gorging himself on fried shrimp and battling zombies with Sunako until four in the morning. Takenaga had suggested it as an alternative to fighting after they had started to break things, and both had agreed without argument. Usually Takenaga was trying to take away their videogame.

Of course it only felt like seconds before Kyohei woke to a tapping sensation on his arm. "Eh?" He looked up to see two blushing girls from his class. He blinked a few times and sat up straight.

"L-lunch" One managed to stutter out.

"Yessss!" Kyohei jumped up from his seat and went to meet up with the others. He didn't get more than a few steps down the hall when he saw a dark figure approach…only this time it wasn't Sunako. He must be the one that walked home with her last night! . He was scary as ever….but it was different from Sunako's scary. Kyohei looked the boy up and down and noticed the guy was staring right at him. No…more like shooting daggers at him as they passed. But why? He'd never done anything to the kid. Did he imagine it?

oOoOOoOOOoOOoOo

"Sunako, what happened to your hat?" Takenaga asked on their way home. She hadn't gone to school a day without it since she cut her bangs, and he could have swore she had it on when she left that morning.

"I lent it to my friend. He's not as used to bright creatures as I am." She explained. "I've built up some immunity." The last part was her bragging.

Sunako walked towards to science closet with her bento. Though she had made friends with some of the girls in her class, she decided that lunch was best eaten alone. She gave a quick look over her shoulder to make sure no one was following her before opening the door. She was about to slip inside when a voice called out from behind.

"Can I join you?" Sunako jumped a little and spun around. She was fully prepared for a snappy comment when she saw who it was. It was the boy from yesterday.

"Haru?" She looked at him closer, just to be sure it was really him. "I've never seen you here before."

"Today is my first day." He explained and offered a twisted smile. "Remember, I said I moved to the area just a few days ago." Sunako nodded. She had forgotten that. "So….can I eat lunch with you? I don't really know anyone else….plus no one wants to talk to me."

Again, Sunako nodded, this time more enthusiastically. "I know the feeling." She then stepped aside to let Haru into the room.

He stepped into the middle of the room and looked around, a chill ran down his spine. It was creepy in here. He turned around and saw Sunako already on the floor opening her lunch. She had lit a small candle. "Don't the lights in here work?" He questioned as he sat down beside her.

"I like the dark better." She explained as she took a bit. "Didn't you say you also hated the light?"

"Uh, yeah I did." He agreed. "This school is much brighter than my old one."

"It's because of my roommates." Sunako continued. "They bring the light with them. It's pretty annoying." She paused for a moment in thought, then took off her hat and handed it to Haru. "Here, you can borrow this. It helps."

"But don't you need it?"

"I have to live with them so I'm used to it….a little." The horror girl offered.

"Immunity huh?" Kyohei placed a hand on top of her head and turned her to face him. "Wanna test that theory?"

"Ahhh! Don't touch me!" Sunako shouted as she waved her arms in the air and ran ahead. Kyohei chased after her, annoyed at her reaction to him touching her. Did it really bother her that much?

"Don't run away! What happened to being used to me?" He continued to laugh as he picked up the pace.

"Stop harassing me!"

"So Sunako has a male friend?" Ranmaru mused once the two were out of earshot.

"She did say he." Takenaga agreed. "That would mean she's talking to her male classmates. She is one step closer to becoming a lady!"

Takenaga and Ranmaru both had tears of joy streaming down their cheeks. Free rent! Yuki however, didn't seem to match their joyous expression.

"Yuki, aren't you happy too?" Takenaga turned to the boy who was clearly thinking about something.

"Ano…" Yuki remembered seeing the scary new student coming back from lunch wearing a hat that looked just like one he used to have….and now the hat Sunako had taken from him was missing. It couldn't just be a coincidence. His expression paled.

"What is it?"

"She gave my hat to the scary guy!" He wailed.

"Scary…guy?" The two spoke in unison.

"Y-yeah! He's a new student in my class." The childish bishounen explained. He was getting scared again just remembering. "He's even scarier than Sunkao is."

"Do you think she'll still be more lady like if she gets a scary boyfriend?" Ranmaru asked to no one in particular.

All three sighed as they came to the same conclusion. "No way."

oOoOOoOOOoOOoOo

A few days later….

Haru paced around the room talking on the phone. "I told you it was fine."

"I thought you'd be back."

"You know me, I always find a way."

"You're with your cousin now right? Isn't she in some high schooler's fan club? That's so weird."

"Yeah, she's the craziest out of all those girls. The guy just looks like some pretty-boy rich kid with a bad attitude."

"So how long are you gonna be there?"

"Just till things blow over and I can cash in." He smirked and tossed Sunako's hat carelessly on his bed as he glanced at the clock…11:30pm. "I've got a pretty good thing going on here."

"Yeah?"

"I'll have to tell you later, I'm supposed to go meet this chick at the cemetery." Before the person on the other end could say another word Haru hung up the phone. He threw on his jacket and headed out the door.

oOoOOoOOOoOOoOo

Sunako yawned as she finished everyone's bento for school and stacked them up neatly. She had dark bags under her eyes and her hair was messier than usual, clearly it hadn't been brushed. However, she was dressed in her uniform, so clearly she planned on going to school that way.

"Late night?" Kyohei snuck up behind her and stole a piece of sushi out of one of the boxes. She hissed at him and he backed away. "It was only one piece! And look, you made and extra!" He pointed at the boxed accusingly.

"Is Sunako so tired that she made an extra?" Takenaga asked. He and the others had come down no too since it was time to leave.

"No. It's for my friend Haru." She said taking two of the boxes and putting them in her bag and all the boys jaws dropped.

"Sunako made lunch…for a boy!" Ranmaru exclaimed. "How romantic! Is he your boyfriend?" He turned to Kyohei before she could answer. "Are you jealous?"

"I-it's not like that." Sunako scurried out of the kitchen towards the door.

"But didn't you sneak out to see him last night?" Yuki spoke up, but then quickly wished he hadn't when she turned to glare at him, eyes glowing red.

"Well, why are you making him lunch?" Kyohei demanded, following her towards the door. He ignored the others muttering to themselves about him being jealous.

"None of your business." She said coldly as she walked out the door, keeping a quick pace all the way to school so that no one questioned her further.

And will you say it was a good time?
And you will you tell him anything?
He's got you right where he wants you
Right where he wants you

He's going outside in the middle of the night with you
Tell me what I'm supposed to do
