I do not own Rosario + Vampire.

Moka's whole life had gone in overdrive. Her mother wanted to spend more and more time with her. It wasn't that bad and Moka understood why her mother wanted to, but her mother still hadn't answered any of her questions. It annoyed Moka to no extent. Kokoa had taken up her old hobby and was practically stocking Moka.

Moka could have sworn Kokoa had gotten over her sister complex. Kahlua's fiancé was a complete ass and Kahlua didn't want to break up with him. Ruby had to go out of town because of family problems and Moka had to her job. She didn't really care but she never realized how complicated Ruby's job was. Mizore was called back to her village for some strange reason.

Her clients were getting more and more annoying. They didn't actually love just lusted. They wanted a fantasy they just simply couldn't have. Moka didn't know when she really started to care about that. She just knew that right now, she felt completely and utterly alone.

She needed one good thing in her life. She was reaching her limits and if she failed her father would be right and that meant going to work for him and his company. He had told her she wouldn't be able to do anything on her own. Geez, could the universe please send her a savior, a knight, someone who could lift her spirit? No? Great.

"Hello?" Tsukune said walking into the office, "Is anyone here?"

Ugh. Just her luck, it was just a client. Moka walked out of her office to greet him. She sighed and looked up at him. Oh, it was him.

He looked different. What was it about him? He was wearing the clothes she had chosen so it wasn't that. His hair was still as messy as ever.

"I came to say that," Tsukune sighed and rubbed his eyes, "that blah blah blah blah blah blah."

Moka was so busy trying to figure out why he seemed different that she wasn't really listening to him. She sadly did that a lot with him. He was such a love sap and all she ever got from him was 'Kurumu and I'…"Kurumu this'…'Kurumu that'. There that was it! He seemed tired and his usually cheerful eyes seemed sad. He looked like an old man whose grandchildren never came to visit him.

"Let's go!" Moka said grabbing his hand.

"What?" Tsukune asked confused.

Moka's super strength didn't give him a chance to try and stop her, not even when she locked the door. He was being pulled along like a rag doll. He was occasionally tripping because he couldn't keep up. He sighed and gave in. She walked as Tsukune jogged side by side.

"Here we are!" Moka declared with a grin.

Tsukune looked at the building and then at Moka. He did this for about thirty seconds.

"The gym?" He asked confused, "What are we doing here?"

"You are going to continue to teach me how to swim in the herbal water!" Moka declared, "I'm stressed and so are you. Let's forget it all even if it's just for a couple of hours."

Tsukune was silent for a moment. She was right. This was exactly what he needed and she needed it too. He looked over at her. She looked at him with a genuine eager smile. His eyes widen and his heart skipped a beat.

She looked different. He usually saw her grin or her smirk. He had to admit she was always beautiful, but at that moment she seemed drop dead gorgeous. He didn't feel when he did it, but he smiled. His smile was the gentlest smile she had ever seen.

His eyes made his smile and facial features all the more better. She had to admit he had always been a cute guy but at that moment he seemed so handsome.

"Let's go." He said softly.

Moka felt warm. Why? Was it his gaze? No, she'd seen that look before. Was it the heat of the moment? No, she didn't feel like kissing him just warm.

Was it because she always felt cared for and worried about with him? Yes. Was it because he seemed to want to do whatever she wanted? Yes. Was it because she herself wanted to fall in love with a guy like that? …Maybe, it was.

XXXXX

Did she want to fall in love? Yes. But wait, love doesn't exist! Then what did her clients fawn about all the time? An emotion that they wanted to feel.

If it didn't exist, then why did they want to feel it? How did they know it was there if it never existed?

"I don't know." Moka said.

Tsukune tiled his head confused at her. They were both in the pool taking a small break from practice. She was a quick learner and good at concentration on the task in front of her, but even then it was fun for him. They would still both joke and he would still get a little beaten up.

"That's okay." Tsukune responded.

She looked at him confused.

"You don't have to know." Tsukune smiled at her, "Sometimes you just have to feel and you'll know later along the way."

She would have to feel? How could she feel an emotion that didn't exist? No, it might exist. She looked up at Tsukune and bit her lip. Tsukune let out a light chuckle.

He reached over and gently touched her lip where she was biting it. She quit biting her lip.

"You'll make yourself bleed if you keep doing that." Tsukune said.

Moka shrugged, "I'm a vampire, and I like blood."

"Have you ever drunken someone's blood from their neck?" Tsukune asked.

"Not yet." Moka replied.

"Is that normal?" Tsukune asked.

"Not really." Moka answered honestly, "I live off of tomato juice. You could say I'm a vegetarian."

XXXX

This love was too soon wasn't it? Yes it was too soon, so maybe she just really liked him. Of course, that was it! No, that was too deep too. How about attraction?

…She could live with that. He wasn't the most handsome guy she had seen though. Wait, attraction could be more than just looks, it could be his personality. Yup, his personality was definitely beautiful. What else could it be?

She knew it was more than attraction so what else?

"What did you want to be before you became a love guru?" Tsukune looked at her with a gentle, interested, happy smile.

She could be her. She could dream. That was defiantly why. She was accepted and didn't feel alone.

"I wanted to work at a restaurant." Moka said, "I can't cook though."

Had she been oblivious the whole time? She wanted to be with him. She lov-was attracted to him. When had she started feeling that way and why hadn't she realized it before.

"Those aren't the only jobs a restaurant has you know." Tsukune said.

"I know, but it's already too late to follow that career." Moka said nonchalantly as she carefully watched him.

"Why?" Tsukune stopped what he was doing and looked her dead in the eye, "I don't think it's too late. When you have a desire you should follow it."

Moka didn't respond. What was this? She had never felt like this before. Her heart was racing and she wanted him to hug her, caress her cheek, or anything that involved him being close.
