Hey my friends! I have returned to torture or enlighten your minds with my new chapter! Mwahahaha! Evil laughs are fun.

Anyway, I have returned for this story that I love. Seriously, Yuudai is the best thing my mind ever created. Nothing else could beat him. Let's get a review in, shall we?

Guest: Thank you! I can't explain in words here how much pride I feel every time I hear a compliment like yours.

Chapter 27: Love Potion Effects

One eye opens slowly looking around the room. The one in question is Yuudai. He has been moved from his window sill. The teen boy is now in the same bed as Louise whom is sleeping next to him. Seeing this, Yuudai opens his other eye. Her arm is on him so he lays there unmoving. Thinking of the events of the previous night.

Before arriving back to their room, Yuudai had been aggravated. Though he knows most guys would kill for this kind of thing, he doesn't like this kind of attention. First Siesta kisses him then Louise is announcing her undying love for him. A night most guys kill for and guys like Yuudai would rather avoid.

"So you don't like this either. I can sense it." Yuudai states quietly not looking at Wales beside him.

The soul entwined with him nods confirming what Yuudai said. "Why would I? The best friend of my should-have-been-girlfriend is in love with the one guy that my soul is fused with." He says. "Honestly, I don't know if I should be proud or depressed."

Yuudai just sighs. "I don't know. I just feel like sleeping for a few thousand years would be a better use of my time." Yuudai says feeling like he isn't exactly exaggerating.

"Trust me, it's relaxing, but so very boring." Derflinger comments from his sheath.

"I'll take your word for it then." Yuudai replies to the sword. He then lays his eyes on his new scarf that is still around his neck with his and Sietsa's name on it. "I'm surprised she hasn't tried to burn it yet.'

"Give it time." Derflinger and Wales say at the same time.

A cute noise sounds from Louise letting Yuudai know to brace himself for a ton of unwanted love. "Yuudai." She says opening her eyes as if she is the most innocent girl in the entire world.

"Blanc." He replies noticing that Wales bailed since he is no longer there. "I hope you still don't hate me, but don't like me either."

"Smooth." Derflinger comments again.

"Shut up rusty." He retorts earning an unhappy grunt from the talking sword.

"Please forgive me! Forgive me!" She exclaims burying her head in his chest.

Yuudai raises an eyebrow. "Why would you say that?" He asks getting her to look at his face with confusion evident on her own. "You never felt the need to apologize on most occasions like last night."

"I know, but please just forgive me!" She says returning her face to his chest.

"Fine. You are forgiven." He relents.

She jumps up happily getting off the bed. The short girl reaches in a small space between her bed and the wall. Yuudai narrows his eyes already having sped next to the door. He knew she was faking. She tricked him and now wanted to chain him up!

She pulls a mess of an attempt at some knitting. His mind racks through the many possibilities of what it could be. "Not going to lie Blanc, I have no idea what that is." Yuudai tells her bluntly. Some tears start to form where she already had red puffy eyes from crying last night.

"I-it's a sweater I made for you." She informs him. He deadpans at her. "I was hoping that if I could make you something that you would only talk to me rather than all the other girls. And Guiche." She explains.

"What's wrong with Guiche?" Yuudai asks sounding vaguely amused.

For a moment the regular Louise shows herself with a knowing look. "What isn't wrong with that cheating liar?"

Guiche's Room

A sneeze from Guiche immediately wakes him up from his sleep. He looks around seeing no reason for it. "I wonder who is talking about me." He says to himself. A look of satisfaction forms on his face. "Must be a girl talking about my dashing good looks and charm."

Louise's Room

She tosses it to him having him catch it without a thought. "So...you want me to wear this?" He asks receiving a nod. "Well I will think about it while I go to the bathroom...that I still have a hard time finding...don't wait up for me." He is the gone like the wind out the door and down the hall.

"Yuudai!" She calls out.

After finishing with the bathroom, Yuudai heads to the dining area. A mess of blond hair catches Yuudai's eyes letting him know he had found what he is looking for. The teen walks over to her sitting next to Guiche seeing her tense at his presence.

He grabs a piece of toast from her plate without her doing a thing and takes a bite. "Hey! Who do you think you are?!" Guiche exclaims. "That isn't-" Yuudai shuts him up with one glare.

"Quiet Guiche. Monty here just needs to come to her room, find something to fix this then you two can go back to your relationship issues." Yuudai tells him not in the mood for playing around.

"Oh yeah, that's right. The love potion thing." Guiche mutters still unable to believe Montmorency would try such a thing on him.

Yuudai turns his attention back to her. "I don't care why you did it, but I do care on how you fix it." He tells her. "If I have to deal with a lovey dovey Blanc for much longer I'm just going to sleep outside and avoid her altogether."

She turns to him looking like she wants to snap at him. To just start yelling at him. Nothing else would make her happier, but she knows that it would end badly. After all, last time she only ended up falling on her face. Actually, if not for Louise, she would have likely been beaten senseless.

"I'm ready Monty. Let's go." He states having her get up and have him follow her followed by Guiche himself. They end up in her room a few minutes later searching her room.

"So I understand that you wanted to drug Guiche with the stuff to stop him from cheating, but you gave me the glass on purpose. You could have just told me that you didn't." Yuudai says to the blond searching still.

"I thought it'd be a good payback for tripping me the other day, but I haven't been able to feel free of guilt, or safe, since you left the room last night." She replies sitting on her bed.

"Tell me, what kind of cures are there?" Yuudai requests deciding that the hostility act is not getting him anywhere.

She places a hand on her chin. "Well there is, but the item was all used up for the love potion."

"Then it sounds like you need to buy another one." Yuudai tells her.

She sighs looking at the teen holding a hand towards her boyfriend. "As Guiche can confirm, money doesn't come easily for some nobles." She admits surprising Yuudai to an extent. "I hate to admit it, but it will be hard to come by that kind of money for a while."

Yuudai smirks seeing Guiche laugh himself. "I see you have me figured out Guiche. Go ahead, tell her."

Guiche turns to Montmorency. "Sorry my love, but money is nothing to this guy thanks to a certain Viscount Wardes." He explains.

Yuudai pulls out the bag and dumps out some gold coins on a table earning a very shocked look from her. He then looks in the little bag. "There doesn't seem to be an end to it all." He shakes his head returning his sight to Montmorency. "Will all of this work?"

"Yes!" She exclaims not admitting there is more than enough.

"Good. Have it bought by tomorrow or I'll escort you there myself by dragging you." Yuudai says walking out of the room satisfied that he doesn't have to deal with a love struck Louise much longer. A shudder runs down his spine out of nowhere once he is halfway to Louise's room. "I feel like something unexpected is going to happen and it isn't going to end well for me."

"Does it ever?" Wales asks appearing beside him.

"I hate how accurate you are about that." Yuudai replies. "Want to place a bet?"

"A noble such as myself should never bet on such bad feelings!" Wales exclaims. His eyes dart back and forth. "What are we betting?"

Yuudai laughs at this. "I'll bet fifty gold coins to anyone you tell me to them to that Blanc is near naked and waiting for me."

"Well this isn't going to be much of a bet since I actually agree with you." Wales states making the two laugh again walking down the hall. By the time he arrived to the door Wales had already disappeared.

He stops in front of the door smelling some incense. Yuudai braces himself opening the door. Sadly, he could not have predicted what is in front of him now. He was right about the near naked part. However, the only thing wrong is that she is only wearing a shirt that is barely covering lower privates.

"What the hell?!" Yuudai exclaims taking a step back.

She looks him in his eyes. "Where have you been?" She asks in a teary voice kneeling on the ground.

"Looking for a cure so that you will stop coming onto me!" He answers feeling his cheeks redden. The teen is not used to this. "This is not you at all!"

"There is no need for a cure since these are simply my feelings!" Louise tells him.

"Your feelings are as real as the skirt and panties that are on you right now." Yuudai retorts somehow feeling as though he had just sucker punched her heart at that point. He then sighs at her downcast look. "Look, the cure will be here tomorrow. So get some sleep."

"I'll only go to sleep if you let me hug you tightly all night." She compromises.

Yuudai touches the scarf Siesta gave him that is still wrapped around his neck. "That's all? Nothing weird or funny?" She shakes her head. Yuudai lets out a sight. "Fine." He folds the scarf and places it on a desk so that she doesn't rip it to shreds while he is asleep.

She embraces the teen before he could even get onto the bed. "I'm ready." She states happily.

Yuudai forces himself to not pry her off himself. He absolutely hates this kind of attention from someone that is supposed to tolerate him at best. The teen boy gets on the bed thinking up something that brings a grin to his face. He knows Louise will try something and he plans on scaring her before that.

"Before bed, would you like to hear a story Blanc?" Yuudai asks getting his voice in a very eerie tone.

"If it's from you then of course!" She answers.

"Back in my world we had a little story. The story of The Ghost Ship (Just watched it. Didn't freak me out, but it was really good)." He starts.

A While Later

Louise is shaking beside Yuudai with fright in her eyes. "After they put her back in the ambulance, she was finally safe from him. Until she saw some workers carry the gold onto the ship with Jack Ferriman right behind her glaring at her as the doors close." Yuudai finishes letting the air of fear simmer inside her mind.

Louise looks to Yuudai after a few minutes still shaking. "T-that's it? It's finally over?" She asks with a shaky voice.

"Yes it is Blanc. Now how does sleep sound?" He asks feeling proud of himself.

Her eyes dart around the dark room. "It sounds terrifying." She admits.

Yuudai pats her head smiling nicely this time. "As long as you fall asleep right away, nothing will harm you. I'll even stay awake until you fall asleep."

"Please do that!" She requests having him nod. "Thank you." She thanks closing her eyes.

Yuudai chuckles a little bit laying down for some time hearing her snore. "You are so cruel sometimes." Derflinger states.

"Agreed." Wales adds.

Yuudai looks at both individually. "Sorry, but that was hilarious. That and the fact she would have made some type of move on me." He tells them. "Anyway, I'm tired. Goodnight you two." Yuudai then closes his eyes.

End

There we are! The first chapter of the new year! Yae! Heads up, we have some new family! I humbly welcome you all.

So as you could all tell, I totally had Yuudai bail on the erotic scene part since I know he wouldn't do it for any reason. Therefore, scare the girl. But I finished the chapter and hope you all liked it.

Without anything else in mind, thanks for reading, favoriting, following, reviewing and have a great day/night/morning!
