Blood Contract

Chapter 10

Ruka and Hotaru special chapter


RUKA`S POV

It's the usual morning in the classroom. was having a meeting with the other teachers so it's free time today. I was busy tapping my fingers on the table. It was completely boring. Natsume and Mikan left the classroom awhile ago spending the time of their lives. I started tapping my fingers on the table creating a soft thud.

I looked at my seat mate. Her eyes held no expression, it was cold. It was just like Natsume`s eyes. She was scribbling something on her notebook. It looks like a list of expenses or something.

My thoughts wander around the classroom. It was weary. All you could hear are chatters, murmurs and other unnecessary sounds. I looked at Imai again she doesn`t seem to mind anyone she just kept on looking at her notebook.

The wind blew in a swift motion I could smell the sweet scent of Imai and I realized that I was thirsty.

It`s been long since I had drank human blood. Her scent is making me weaker. We, vampires have our own brand of taste in blood. When we make a blood contract with a certain person and then we seal it, the taste of their blood becomes are addiction. In the case of Natsume, I knew all along that he is addicted on Mikan not only for her blood but because also love her.

Every seconds passing by, I couldn`t hold this lingering feeling anymore. This could be really dangerous if I couldn`t control my thirst I could even uncover my secret. I grabbed Imai`s hands without further due.

All of them looked at me with wonder as I grabbed Imai`s hands and dragged her along with me out of the classroom.

As soon as we were at a secluded place, she grabbed her baka gun and shot it at me. I dodged the attacks I have no time to be arguing with her for I was thirsty. I pinned her on the wall then hastily sank my fangs in her neck. I was yearning for her blood, it was delicious. I covetously sipped her blood with all my might not caring if I might hurt her or not. A vampire, when thirsty doesn`t have control. All he thinks about is his prey and nothing else. The blood flows through my throat; I love how it warms my throat as it passes deep down.

After I had enough of the blood I pushed her away gently. I`m back in my usual self again.

She stared at me with those cold eyes. After what I`ve done to her she still has this expression? This girl really is something.

She sat down at the ground and motioned me to sit beside her. I sat down leaving a short distance of space between us. I thought she wouldn`t be angry of what I did to her but I was wrong. She pulled out her baka gun then began to shot me. I just let her hit me with it but it didn`t hurt I just wanted to wake up from delusion.

"That hurts, pay me money" She muttered. After all that happened all she thinks about is her oh so beloved money.

"I already paid you" I said.

"Whatever reasons I have my ways, guess I have to sell a lot of photos of you and Hyuuga than usual"

Geez, this girl is really different. She wasn`t even afraid of a vampire nor was she freaked out that a vampire bit her. I`m so lucky to find a girl like her though sometimes she`s not easy to deal with.

"Why do you love money that much? Money isn`t the most important thing in the world"

"Money isn`t the most important thing in the world love is" She muttered. Whoah, this girl knows things beyond money especially a thing called Love. That caught me by surprised not until she added "Fortunately I love money" I sweat dropped. Surely, this girl is beyond different. She`s interesting in some ways.

"There are many things that can`t be brought by money like happiness"

"Whoever said money can`t buy happiness simply they didn`t know where to shop" She muttered nonchalantly. I sighed. This girl really is unusual. That`s one thing I like about her.

"Why are you so obsessed with money?" I asked.

"You`re rich, you don`t understand a thing" She muttered in a monotone voice I could feel sorrow in her face.

"Have you ever been in love before?" I muttered, changing the topic. She just looked at me, seemingly uninterested.

"No" She muttered.

"Be honest" I muttered, not convinced.

"Honesty is the best policy—when there is money in it" She said. I sighed. She doesn`t look like she had been in love before so probably not.

"Money again" I mumbled. She looked at me.

"What`s wrong with loving money?" She muttered. I just looked at her I was just about to say something when she cut me off.

"My parents died when I was just 10 years old, our house was taken by one of my relatives so I don`t consider them as my family anymore. I completely lost trust to anyone at that time because even my own blood related relatives betrayed my family and didn`t even cared for me. I don`t want to go to orphanage so I decided to work by myself. Young kid that time I`ve been through so much that not even teenagers had been. So I greatly treasure the value of money" She muttered wrapping her arms on her knees.

Her eyes were now soft. It was filled with sadness, sorrow and grief. I regret judging her. It must have been really tough on her part. I feel sorry for her. I wanted to hug her, wrap her in my arms and tell her that she`s safe in me.

I moved closer to her then wrapped my arms around her.

"I`m sorry" I muttered.

"Its okay" Never thought that this girl, cold hearted as I know her can be this soft and vulnerable.

She didn`t pushed me back. She didn`t hesitate. She just let me hug her.

It was an indescribable feeling. There something tingling in my heart. I could feel the loud thudding in my heart.

HOTARU`S POV

As he hug me, I feel really safe in his arms. I don`t know why but somehow I like the feeling. I feel really safe like there`s a huge barrier around us keeping us from harm and the other harsh realities in this world.

I could hear the loud beating of his heart as well as the strident thud of my heart. All of the sound of our hearts beat in harmony composing a lovely melody.

Somehow there`s a part in me that is slowly starting to heal, the warmth closely bringing itself back in me like it belongs there in the first place.

I don`t know how long this will last but somehow I might as well treasure this moment.

NORMAL POV

As the two sat there in each other`s arms, love yet to be unleashed in both sides. Time stood still for both of them, savoring the moment of each other`s presence.
