Chapter 11

The Vampire And I

Monday came and everyone was eating their lunch in the cafeteria because it was raining outside. At least, everyone except Shuichi who had a whole pile of spellbooks in front of him. Hiro and Fujisaki watched as their witch friend reading the spellbooks page by page.

"Why is Shuichi reading all of those books?" Fujisaki asked Hiro.

"I don't know." said Hiro "Maybe for some kind of test?"

"You know even though I'm reading, I can still hear you, right?" said Shuichi, his eyes not leaving the book "And to answer your question, yes. I'm trying to study for an important witch test next week."

"I thought the flying test was the important test?" asked Fujisaki.

Shuichi lifted his head and looked over at his two confused friends. "The flying test is one of three before a witch is no longer a Girl of the Night and they become complete Mistresses of Darkness. I've barely passed the flying test because of Taki's sabotage, I'm currently studying for the magic test, and then there's the beauty test which I know I'm gonna fail. All the rules are the same. One screw up on one test and you are executed. I want to make it to the beauty test before I'm executed."

"Who says you're going to fail and get executed?" said Hiro "You're amazing at magic and don't get me started on your looks. You will ace those tests no problem."

Suddenly, they heard lots of people screaming. The trio stood up to find out what it was. They saw a frankenstein monster running around. They thought maybe he might know what's wrong.

"Hey, Frankie. What's going on?" asked Hiro.

"He... He's at school!" said the monster.

"Who?" asked Shuichi.

"Ei... Eiri Uesugi."

The trio were shocked. The popular bad boy who always skips school actually came for once? Why? What did he want? They ran around the school until they found a group of girls squealing. No doubt he was in there.

"Omigod, Eiri Uesugi. You're so hot." said one girl.

"Thank you. And please, I prefer to be called Yuki." said Yuki.

"So what brings you here to school?" asked another.

"I happen to be looking for a special someone who has captured my heart with love. Unfortunately, none of you are who I'm looking for. But you all are very wonderful."

The girls were upset, but they didn't show it on their faces. They knew he at least thought they were wonderful so it was enough. Yuki looked around until he saw Shuichi. Shuichi noticed that Yuki was looking right at him and blushed. Hiro was not impressed.

"I really hate vampires." he said "Some of us actually have to work hard to get a girl to like us."

"Well, what can you do?" asked Fujisaki "After all, in everyone's eyes, Eiri Uesugi is perfection."

Suddenly, Yuki was walking in their direction. Shuichi was terrified. What if they end up close again? He was afraid what would happen if they talked to each other. After all, he didn't want to have his heart broken.

"We meet again." said Yuki when he reached them.

Hiro looked over at Shuichi. "Shuichi? Do you know him?" he asked.

"Well, remember the vampire that saved me at the flying test?"

"It was him?"

"Yeah, it was me." said Yuki "Got a problem with it?"

"Yeah, I've got a problem with it. Why did Mr. Popular want to save a witch like Shuichi?"

"Hiro! Calm down!" said Shuichi "He said he just wanted to."

"Just wanted to? There had to be a better reason than that."

"Actually..." said Yuki, pulling a shy act "I... The reason why I saved you was because... well... when I first saw you, it was like I was in a trance. And to see you in danger, I knew I had to do something. I wanted to get you to notice me, Shuichi Shindo."

"You wanted me to notice you?" asked Shuichi.

"Yes."

"Are you trying to pull something on me? Because I'm not going to be like other witches and have my heart broken. No one can ever love a witch. Especially not a witch like me." He ran off. He was happy to get a confession like that but it was like he said; he didn't want to have his heart broken like other witches. He ran into the washroom and went into one of the stalls. He sat down and started crying. Why did he have to be a witch? A male witch? When he felt it was time to come out, he did only to be met up by a certain vampire. Shuichi was about to walk out until Yuki blocked his path.

"Let me through!" said Shuichi.

"Not until you listen to what I have to say." said Yuki.

"What kind of game are you trying to pull?"

"None. I really do like you, Shuichi."

"But why me? I'm not beautiful."

"That's not how I see it." He took Shuichi's hand and led him in front of one of the mirrors. "Look at yourself!"

Shuichi hesitated at first, but then he looked at himself. He looked at the things that he did look beautiful for. There was... there was... there was nothing. He saw nothing. Yuki noticed how Shuichi looked at himself and knew he had to show his beauty to him.

"Do you know what I see?" he asked "I see a witch with the loveliest pair of legs I've ever seen, nice slender arms anyone would want to have wrapped around them, a tiny waist they want to wrap their arms around, soft hair that smells like strawberries, a cute little nose that makes you look happy, lovely amethyst colored eyes with perfectly curved long lashes framing them, and your lips... your lips..."

Before he would say another word, he leaned close to Shuichi and pressed their lips together. Shuichi was shocked at first, but finally gave in. When they stopped, they looked into each other's eyes.

"Will you let me prove to you this isn't a joke?" Yuki continued "I have two tickets to go to the Yami Amusement Park. I was hoping maybe you'd like to go with me."

"And this really isn't prank or plot or anything?" asked Shuichi.

"Why would I want to lie to you? Especially not someone as beautiful as you. No witch can ever compare to you."

"Are you alright with being with a male witch?"

"I'm a bisexual. It doesn't matter what gender I date."

"Well... alright. But my mother is one that doesn't believe love can happen to a witch."

"I guess I'll have to show her wrong, won't I?

The bell rang. "I better get to class." said Shuichi "When do you want to go?"

"Talk it over with your mother tonight and we'll figure it out from there. I'll see you later."

The two went their separate ways. Shuichi couldn't believe it. The vampire he had been getting dreams about wanted to be with him and not any other girl. This had to be the best day of his life.

Meanwhile in the Fire Cave, Kitazawa was watching his plan going perfectly. Yuki was able to hook onto Shuichi. All he has to do now is show more love and the witch boy will be his slave. He knew it wouldn't be long now.
