I love spending time with Mana.
Mamoru knocked on Mana's window after her brother left. Mana turned and smiled at him. She jumped out of bed and opened the windows. Mamoru hugged her.
"You're getting taller," Mana said as they pulled away.
"It's getting easier to climb up here," Mamoru grinned. "But you're getting taller too."
He placed a hand on her head and she grinned.
"Father wishes I'd stay this small," she mumbled. "But I would like to be a little taller by my thirteenth birthday."
Mamoru pinched her cheeks.
"You're perfect this size," he said.
Mana huffed and puffed her cheeks out.
Adorable. I never knew vampires could be like this.
Mamoru blushed as Mana's head fell onto his shoulder. He closed the book and put it on the bedside table.
He brought an arm around Mana and cuddled her closer. Mana yawned and snuggled up to him. Mamoru blushed more and smiled. He brushed the hair away from her forehead and placed a kiss.
Mana mumbled something and brought her arms around him. She smiled and Mamoru closed his eyes, head leaning on hers.
My mind is at peace when I'm with her.
Mamoru woke up with a jolt. He glanced outside and saw the sky was turquoise.
He hadn't meant to stay the night.
Mamoru glanced at Mana and smiled upon seeing her nestled up to him, hand clutching his shirt. He looked up and his heart skipped a beat.
Mana's father was leaning on the doorway, arms folded and his heterochromia eyes watching him. Mamoru propped himself up and Mana's hand slipped from his shirt.
Mana's father smirked then nodded towards the open window. Mamoru carefully lowered Mana's head on her pillows and ran out.
Every risk is worth it if I get to see her.
