Chapter 12
Kyohei woke up with Sunako sleeping peacefully in his arms, curled up against his chest and breathing softly against his neck. He had woken up early because of a dream he had that night. He dreamt of the happiness he had with Sunako and how much he loved her. His sweet dream soon turned into a terrible nightmare. Kirashi appeared and took her away, somehow managing to make Sunako love him instead. The only thing that kept him asleep during this was the fact that she didn't immediately turn to Kirashi. She kept loving him, and only after an immeasurable amount of time did she turn to Kirashi's open arms. Eventually, she forgot all about him and lived a happy life with Kirashi. This was when Kyohei woke with a start, suppressing his reaction as not to awaken Sunako.
"She's supposed to live like that with me, not him! How could she forget me? How did he make her love him?" Kyohei thought jealously as he remembered something important, "It was just a dream. It doesn't have to come true. Hell, it won't come true, if I have anything to do about it!"
Kyohei managed to calm himself down with this piece of information, but couldn't help feeling a sense of foreboding. He thought of why he could possibly feel this way, but couldn't come upon any conclusions not relating to his dream. He slowly became worried for their happiness; something bad was going to happen.
"No, I'm not psychic. I can't know when something bad will happen. Today will be just like any other day; safe, happy, and eventful. Not that 'eventful' always results in something great, but whatever. Sunako's going to be okay. We'll both be okay. We'll be as safe as we always are," Kyohei thought, trying to calm himself down, "But something still feels off."
He pulled Sunako closer to his chest and tightened his arms around her, willing the weird feeling to disappear. He didn't know that he kept hugging her more and more tightly out of fear of losing her.
Sunako woke up because she felt something squeezing the air out of her chest. She realized it was Kyohei, desperately holding her close to him, as if he could protect her from something.
"Kyohei?" Sunako whispered into his neck, afraid of moving and cutting off her air supply, "Are you okay? You're suffocating me."
She decided to risk turning her head to face his and smile comfortingly. She hoped it was just a dream. That way, she could easily comfort him and have her carefree, smiling boyfriend back.
Kyohei was jerked from his thoughts by Sunako's voice and saw her smiling at him. A few seconds later, he realized how tightly he was hugging her and abruptly loosened his arms so he was merely holding her.
"Uh, yeah, I think I'm okay. I just can't shake this weird feeling that something bad is going to happen. Maybe it was just because of that dream I had." Kyohei admitted, still reasoning with himself.
"What was your dream about? If you want to tell me, that is." Sunako asked carefully.
"It started out nice; it was just like what we we're doing now. But then Kirashi came and stole you away. You still loved me, but eventually you forgot me and loved him. I don't know how he managed to do that. But then I felt like something was going to happen today." Kyohei slowly explained, still trying to figure out how he could get rid of this ominous feeling.
"Well, it was just a dream. It can't hurt you, and there's no way I could ever fall for Kirashi, much less forget you. I mean, he tricked me. And you're just too brilliant for anyone to forget. Don't worry about it; everything's going to be fine." Sunako said lovingly as she comforted her troubled boyfriend; her hands now gently rubbing his arms.
"Are you sure?" Kyohei asked, still not entirely convinced.
"Yes. I'm sure. Now shouldn't you be asking for breakfast right about now?" Sunako said, trying to cheer him up by teasing him.
"Oh yeah! Let's get breakfast, I'm hungry." Kyohei replied with a smile on his face.
"You're going to have to let me get dressed first." Sunako said with a laugh as she stood up to go to her closet.
"Fine, but I'll come back if you take too long!" Kyohei agreed as he left for the kitchen.
Sunako came to make breakfast a few minutes later, where she was greeted in the usual fashion by Kyohei. She loved how warm he was, and how she could melt into his arms while she was watching the food cook. She brought out the meal to her friends and ate happily, but Kyohei's words to her this morning troubled her slightly as well. As she was cleaning up, she realized it was grocery shopping day and left the mansion with Kyohei at her side.
As they were doing their weekly shopping, Kyohei was distracted by crabs and shrimp while Sunako shopped for the rest of the groceries. She was going to meet up with him to get the shrimp when Kirashi appeared and attracted her attention.
"Hey, Sunako!" Kirashi said as he approached Sunako.
"Why is he here? Oh yeah, he lives nearby. He told Kyohei and I that once. Maybe I'll just ignore him." Sunako thought as she walked through the shopping arcade.
"Hey! Sunako!" Kirashi persisted, close enough now to put a hand on her arm to stop her.
"He just won't go away. He's like some kind of pest." Sunako thought; irritated at his perseverance.
"Hey, I know you pretty much hate me right now, but I found this amazing shop that sells movie props from all the greatest horror movies. There's fake blood, chainsaws, axes, skeletons, zombies, you name it! I knew you would love it, and I just had to show it to you! I'm not trying to go anywhere with you, I just wanted you to see this amazing store." Kirashi said hurriedly as he removed his hand from Sunako's arm.
"You really expect me to believe that you don't want to spend time with me?" Sunako asked doubtfully, looking at the fish vendor across the street.
"Yes, and I know you can't resist something like this. I won't do anything to upset you, I promise. It'll be like I'm not even there." Kirashi persuaded as he looked Sunako in the eyes.
"Hmmm… Okay. But only for the bloody weapons. I'm going to text Kyohei so he won't think I just randomly disappeared." Sunako agreed warily as she pulled out her phone.
"Okay. Then, let's go!" Kirashi said eagerly as he headed in the direction of the horror shop, "Wow, I'm good. I didn't know I could do it that well. She's actually coming with me!"
Kyohei got the message just as Sunako went out of sight. The bad feeling he had that morning resurfaced with a vengeance as he read Sunako's message.
Going to see a horror store full of bloody movie props! But it's with Kirashi…Why him? Oh well, I can ignore him. See you at home!
"Why did he have to come and take her away? What if it's a trap, and there's actually no store? What if he does something to her? I have to find her!" Kyohei panicked as he stared at the message on his phone, "Wait, what is he even doing here? He pops up at the worst moments. Oh, yeah. He lives nearby. He told Sunako and me once."
After remembering this useful bit of information, Kyohei ran to edge of the shopping arcade before he realized that he didn't know where Kirashi lived. He decided to go back home and tell Takenaga, Ranmaru, and Yuki what happened so he could find out more information.
"Besides, she might just come home perfectly unharmed. I would look really weird if I barged into an actual horror shop." Kyohei thought as he jogged back home.
After telling his friends of Sunako's situation, he got several possible outcomes. Takenaga said that he was overreacting, but he could ask the vendors in the shopping arcade if they had heard of any horror shops nearby if he wanted. Ranmaru suggested renting a helicopter and searching for her from the sky, then parachuting to her rescue. Yuki just said to wait for a call from Sunako, because she was okay and he had nothing to worry about. Kyohei disregarded Ranmaru's solution since it was too dramatic and he didn't have any money. He doubted that Sunako could be okay with that piece of scum, so he took Takenaga's advice and left to interrogate the vendors.
After asking everyone in the shopping arcade, vendor or customer, he got the unanimous answer of 'no'. There was no horror store nearby that sold movie props. This brought truth to Kyohei's worries, and he frantically ran around the shopping arcade, looking for some way to find Sunako.
"Wait. This is getting me nowhere. I'll ask everyone if they have seen a dark haired guy leaving with the scary girl they know so well. Maybe I'll get a hint as to where he's taking her." Kyohei thought as he stopped in the middle of the shopping arcade.
He asked everyone in the shopping arcade if they had seen a dark haired guy and girl leave together, but got no new information. He didn't know what else to do, so he walked to the trailhead that he and Sunako used to talk at in the park. It helped him think out his problems before, so there was a possibility it could help him now. After a few hours of desperately thinking of ways to find his beloved girlfriend, he decided to return to the mansion and hope to find a message from her there. Unfortunately, no such messages came.
As Sunako was walking to the "horror store" with Kirashi, he couldn't help but think how great he was at improvising stories. He walked Sunako to his house, and when she saw that the store they were supposed to be going to looked a lot more like a house, she stopped and told him her thoughts.
"Uh, Kirashi, this doesn't look like a horror movie store. It looks like something someone would live in." Sunako said unsurely as she took a step backward.
"That's because it isn't, Sunako." Kirashi said as he put his hand on her shoulder.
"Where are we? What are you doing?" Sunako asked as she felt the stickiness of a sedative patch on her shoulder and her eyes went wide with fear at the unexpected action. She tried to say something else, but the patch had already begun to work, slowly sending her into a medicated sleep.
"It's alright, my love. You'll be okay." Kirashi said gently as he lifted Sunako into his arms.
Sunako couldn't fight back, but the last thing she thought before the sedative took over was, "Did he just call me 'my love'?"
Mwahahahahaha! Cliffhanger! What do you think will happen to Sunako? Will Kyohei find her in time? Please tell me your thoughts! I love to hear what you think about the story! :D

Coooolll99: I won't keep you waiting for too long!
