This woman, she really did make me do and say the most embarrassing things. My heart sunk a bit when she turned to stone at those word, though I guess that wasn't unexpected. I knocked on her head and got no response. "Look, now you've heard my feelings. You think about things and I'll come back later okay?" I left her in her doorway with another kiss. This one lasted a bit longer than the first, but her stoney lips did not respond.

I closed the door behind me and grabbed a hoodie. I needed to go for a walk. Hopefully I'd find someone to beat up.

"eh...EEEHHHHH!!!!" When I finally came to he had already left. I was again alone in the darkness. My memories took me back to that fateful day so many years ago…the day of the awakening of the current me. "I hate ugly girls" began to echo through my brain. But there was something else there, mixing in with that phrase. I… Sunako … hate… l … ugly…. love … girls…. you. I … Sunako … hate … l … ugly…. love …girls….you. Sunako, I love you."

"YAAAAA!" I screamed and covered my ears. Did he really say that? This makes no sense. What's going on? I looked towards Hiroshi, Akira and Josephine for help, for an answer; but was met with silence. "No, nooo don't ignore me! Help me! Don't leave my side!" I pleaded as the room began to spin. "Aaah the light!"

Takenaga-kun, Yuki and I were reading in the living room when we heard Sunako scream. Yuki immediately dropped his book, screamed in reply and glanced up with tears in his eyes. I turned towards Takenaga-kun but found that he was already making his way upstairs. Yuki and I followed suit and at the top of the stairs the three of us met a shirtless Ranmaru reaching for the doorknob.

Sunako lay there near thedoor, her hands covering her ears with tears flowing. "I can't hear them. They're ignoring me because I've betrayed them." She cried.

"Let's get her on the bed." Takenaga ordered as he and Ranmaru lifter her and tucked her in placing the covers over her head to maximize the darkness. Yuki disappeared, then reappeared a few minutes later with some green tea ice cream and a warm moist towelette. She continued to sob, but her cries had gotten much quieter. I sat next to her on the bed and placed the towelette over her eyes. Stroking her hair, I softly whispered her name then looked up and glared at the boys.

They took the cue and left us alone, closing the door behind him. I stayed with her, just stroking her hair. The tears stopped shortly after they had left, but it was another fifteen minutes or so before she spoke.

"I've betrayed them. Akira, Josephine, and Hiroshi. " She whispered. "I let myself think about a life with that creature…and for a moment … there was light around the both of us. But, it's a trap. It has to be. I am a being of darkness and a creature of the light could never be with a being of darkness. "

Ah, so that's what this was. Sunako had finally realized her feelings for Kyohei. I smiled to myself and in that moment made a resolution to help this go all the way. "Who says that a creature of light and a being of darkness couldn't be together? If you reject him because he's dazzling, how are you different than that bastard that rejected you? Wouldn't you be doing the exact same thing to him that was done to you?"

Sunako lay there in silence and I could tell she was processing. "I…I…don't want to go back to the me before. I like who I am now" She stuttered.

"You don't have to change. You are already really great! I tell you that all the time. Plus he likes who you are now too. I mean why else would he bug you so much, and spend so much time with you. You know you are really very special to him. He doesn't treat anyone else like he treats you. He only does kind and sweet things for you." I encouraged.

"I know." She whispered. Huh, I hadn't expected her to be that cognizant Her voice hesitated when she continued. "but, I don't deserve him."

That type of talk set me off on a tirade "HE DOES NOT DESERVE YOU! I admit he has a good face, but underneath it he is mean, and rude, and rough, and selfish, and loud. He has a horrible personality and is intolerable to spend even a minute with." Sunako surprised me with an eerie giggle.

"That's what he said too." She admitted as she continued to laugh.

"Eehh. What he said? Sunako-chan, did Kyohei confess?" At my inquiry Sunako did something amazing…she blushed! "Eeeh! You better tell me about it. Spill!" I enthusiastically stated. "Let Noi give you love advice!"
