We came back from Switzerland 1 week before school started. It's a first week of school. I'm still in summer mood. Always tired, doesn't listen to what teachers say, then I get scolded by Reiji. Usual day for me. I'm a bad example for kids. But there was one thing unusual.
I looked at my right. Next tome was sitting Ayato. His head was slightly turned away from me. Since that night I haven't seen Ayato often. He acted strange. In past two week he drank my blood only two or three times. And when he did that he didn't said anything. Just comes, does his job and leaves me passed out. Not that I missed my blood being sucked. It's actually nice that my cheeks got that soft blush back. But still... Even now I could feel something different about him. I don't want that. Maybe he's in summer mood too and I'm just paranoid...as always.
I looked at my notebook. In the corner of pages there was few bats that I drew/doodled. The teacher was babling about something again. I really didn't heard and didn't cared right now what was the topic of lesson. I'll just ask Yui and then read about it at home.
I took my black pen and started doing little adjustments to one of bats. I drew black glasses on him, chain with dollar sign and next to him I wrote 'thug life'. This might have no sense. But that's the point. To make people think and vampires angry.
One time I was looking for vampire jokes on internet and I found one about how vampires make tea. And let's put it in a nice way: as a tea bag they use 'stained' females hygiene product *cought* pads *cought*. I laughed so hard because at that moment on my mind was only one vampire. For few days every time when I saw him drinking tea I always bursted out of laughter. First time I thought that I will pass out from the lack of air. I was rolling on the ground in the living room. And the look on Reiji's face was priceless. Poor guy didn't understood what was going on. I didn't told him about that. So more fun for me. Oh, and also I rose my psycho level in front of him as well. Cause now he thinks, no, he diagnosed, that I have mental disorder which kicks in when I see people drinking any beverage and that's makes me laugh my ass off. If only he knew the truth...But he didn't need the truth to have a reason why he should lock me in dungeons for night. And it's not like down there was scary or something. Well I saw a couple of rats but back home my brother kept two rats as a pets. And they weren't so scary. They wear white and in some way had soft fur. Anyway, I wasn't scared down there but I was bored. So I did what I do when I'm bored. I sang 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough' ,Locked Away by Adam Levine, Hallelujah by Panic! At The Disco. Oh the last one is current my jam.
I started to sing the song again in my head
'~All you sinners stand up, sing hallelujah, hallelujah! Show praise with your body...~'
My head was nodding to the rhythm of song. Next thing I know my mouth was moving but I didn't made a sound...yet. After few moments I started silently singing to myself.
"~And if you can't stop shaking, lean back let it move right through ya hallelujah! Say your prayers, say yo- ~" I looked around to see teacher and majority of students looking at me. I did 'hallelujah' part with higher voice witch happened to be louder too. And it draw attention.
"Ms. Yagami would you like to share that with the class ?" teacher gave me that jugging look like he was saying 'I'm better then you'. I'm not surprised he was one of those angry teachers who gives tonse of homework and hates most of students guts for no reason. He was new in this academy ,so yeah, he tries to get that you-don't-mess-whit-me reputation.
'Let him have it. Come on do it. Hit those notes like an old jazz singer.'
'But if I do that he might sent me to principal's office...'
'...'
"~All you sinners stand up, sing hallelujah, hallelujah! ~" I did my best to sing it out like a pro. And I even putted my hands in the air.
"Out. NOW !"
'Well that escalated quickly'
Some where clapping, some where laughing. I stood up and walked out of class. There was no one around. The hallway was empty.
"Oh well" Either way the next period was in the same place, only other teacher will be instead of that one. Come to think of it what's the point of kicking me out. Ten minutes and bell will ring.
*Ten. Minutes. Later*
Bell rang. People started coming out of classes. I was sitting on windowsill slightly swinging my legs. As I was watching people passing by the certain blond girl walked up to me.
"Hey, Yui"
She gave me a smile and leaned against the wall next to me.
"Hey. What happened back there ?"
"Apparently you can't sing in class. I just wanted to lighten up atmosphere in there a little bit" my shoe was handing on my toes and I was playing with it.
"Yeah. When everyone was looking at you that must felt awkward."
"No. Not really. But it would be awkward if I would have sang Closer by Nine Inch Nails...But the other question is: why do I even know such song's lyrics ?" I kept swinging my legs. But I played to much with my loosely hanging shoe. So you can guess what happened. I did sudden leg swing which made my shoe fly away. And of course the universe decided to mess up with me. So it just 'happened' that some guy was walking by and it hit his shoulder.
"Ups"
"Oh dear" Yui covered her mouth
"OY !" guy shouted. He was wearing black school blazer with a black sweater that has a slightly unbuttoned, white dress shirt underneath and a blue tie. His hair was brown, tied up in a messy bun.
"I'm so sorry. It was an accident" I apologized while getting down from windowsill. I ran to grab my shoe. I putted it on and when I straighten up I turned to the guy. He was standing in front of me. The first thing that I saw was his chest. I moved my head backwards so I was kinda looking upward now. I slightly opened my mouth because I wasn't expecting him being so tall. For a couple of seconds I was looking at him.
"I call Reiji a Lightning Rod. So how should I call this guy?" I questioned Yui pointing at Mr. Tall-Man next to me. Yui just smiled shyly shrugging a little.
"Could you speak a little louder ? I can barely hear you from down there" he mocked me.
"Are you making fun of my height? For your information I'm still growing. I grew 0.1969 inches since last year. And if you have problem with that then bring it on big guy ! I can take ya dow- What the hell are you doing ?!" he grabbed my waist and lifted me up so our faces would be at the same level.
"Ha ? What do you mean what I'm doing? I told you, I can't hear you from down there."
I gave him angry look but it only amused him more making him smirk. I folded my arms and raised my eyebrows.
"You sir have no idea with who you talking to...And put me down I'm not a Simba !" I tried to break away from his grip.
"Hehehe This is amusing " he laughed .
"Would it be still amusing for you if I rip your hair out !" I tried to grab his pony tail. But he pulled me away and he leaned back a little.
"OY ! You're playing a dangerous game here, .one"
"I'm 5.2! If you wanna mock me at least get your facts straight, chewbacca"
"You little..." he grunted
"Yuma" I heard a voice behind me. I turned my head just to see Ruki standing behind me. The next thing I know I felt my feet touching the floor. I fixed my school blazer and skirt.
"That you for putting me down" I said without looking at him.
"Whatever" he scratched his head. Then he putted his arm on the top of my head as a support and leaned a little bit.
"Is he doing what I think he's doing ?" I looked at Ruki.
"What's the meaning of this?" Reiji was walking towards us. "Seriously. I can hear your voice from the other side of school." Then he stopped and looked at the other two guys in front of him. The Lighthouse-man, yeah. I'll be calling him like this from now, took off his arm from my head. Reiji and others two exchange glares. I slowly backed away starting to feel alarming vibes coming out from them.
"What's going on ?" I whispered to Yui
"I don't know"
We both looked back at boys.
"That stench was coming out from you" Reiji fixed his glasses.
"So you noticed that too?" Sudenlly behind Ruki appeared Ayato. And those alarming vibes became stronger.
"The shit is about to get real" I whispered
Ruki turned around to face Ayato. Red-hair was glaring at the man in front of him. Ruki gave him mocking grin. "It's a pleasure meeting you too"
"Fuck off" Ayato gritted his teeth making fangs show more. "I remember that stench. You were the one who dared to touch my food."
"Is that how it is? You're calling her 'food' "
"Actually" I interrupted keeping my distanced "From starters he was calling me 'crazy'. Then 'Orokana'. So the fact that he calls me 'food' really doesn't bother me that much like first two did" Everyone was looking at me "...Not that anyone asked my opinion and it really doesn't matter to anyone...Oookayyyy. Carry on" 'That was kinda awkward~'
"Hmm" Ruki looked back at Ayato "You should be watching your can be easily taken away from you"
Ayato roughly grabbed Rukis collar "Are you picking up a fight with me you half-breed asshole !"
"How did you called him ?!" Yuma took one step closer.
"Ayato" Reiji grunted "Not in school"
"Shut it four-eye ! Don't tell me what to do ! I will smack the shit out of this half-breed !"
"Ruki, step aside I will crack this royal's skull wide open!" Yuma crack his knuckles.
"You really don't appreciate your life if you dare to say that to Ore-sama !" Ayato pushed Ruki out of the way and faced Yuma.
'Seriously, my life getting more and more similar to one of thoseTelemundo presenta shows...But wait. Ayato keeps calling them half-breeds. Could it be that they are...'
"Vampires do multiply like rabbits" I sighted. I was shocked a little but then I was like 'meh'
"Wait, you mean ?" Yui looked at me
"Yep. Those two are vampires too. And now I'm sick of this drama. We're gonna end this"
"We?" Yui asked
"Well mostly me" I walked a little further down the hallway and found fire alarm switch. Here's a thing. I did my own little research and I found out that our academy's fire alarm switches are connected to fire sprinkles in a ceiling. So...
"Okay ladies, I think you need a cold shower" I placed my hand on a switch which made everyone look at me with a little confusion and fear in their eyes.
"What's she's doing ?" Yuma asked
"Don't tell me..." Ruki said
"Kaya, don't you dare pull that switch down" I heard a little panic in Reiji's voice.
"One switch rules them all" I tried to imitate Morgan Freeman's voice then I giggled. "Hehe don't worry I won't do it. Getting soaked is the last thing I want"
I heard sights in relieve.
"And beside, teacher said that this floor's switch is out of order for today. It doesn't work. Look"
"NO ! IT'S THE FI-"
I pulled it down and the next thing I know I was getting wet from the water coming down on me.
"It's the first floors fire switch that doesn't work" Reiji was glaring at me. Other boys did the same.
*On the way back home. In limo*
Everyone's cloths were wet. Subaru, Reiji, Kanato, Ayato were the only one's sitting with displeased faces. Shu really didn't gave a damn. He takes baths fully clothed. Laito was only happy because now he could see mine and Yui's bras.
"Well at least they let student go earlier home today" I ruffled my side bangs to make them dry faster.
I only received glares as a respond. I shrugged in my seat. Then my nose started to get ticklish and I sneezed covering my mouth. Few time I breath in through my nose realizing that it's a littler harder to breath with one side.
"Is someone sick ?" Laito teased me placing his hand on my forehead.
"I'm not sick" I shock his hand off "I don't catch colds. It's only temporary" I folded my arms.
"Fufu~ Whatever you say"
.
.
.
"Achoo...Oh karma, you heartless bitch" I sighted.
"So, you don't catch colds, huh?" Subaru said "Humans are so weak"
I rolled my eyes "You guys will be able to live for about a week without me running around the mansion and my nonsense. For my understanding, that's a good news"
"Finally, I will have some peace and quiet" Reiji rubbed his temple.
"I feel soo flattered" I said
*Three days after*
Another sneeze. I was laying in my bed wearing full-length sleeping pants and red long sleeve shirt. This sucks. Everything starts with innocent sneeze, then nose starts running, throat is raw, you're always cold because of a fever. You're too lazy to get up cause your body feels so heavy and you feel terrible in general.
But it does remind me of that day somehow.
It was 7 years ago. We just moved from Mexico to Alaska. Our uncle's friend made sure that my brothers and me would get safe to our new home. It was so sudden. He woke us up early in the morning and told us to start packing our things and follow him. We didn't understand what was happening. Well I didn't. I was only ten years old and my oldest brother was sixteen. All I remember that we drove with car , then we reached airport from where our uncle's friend took us. With 3 stops finally we reached Alaska. Then we drove to some city to our, so called, new home. But since it was so quick weather change I caught a cold. My brothers took turns nursing me. I kept saying that I was okay and when no one was around I got out of bed, grabbed my brother's coat. I was about to go outside to build a snowman when suddenly my oldest brother Ichirou grabbed coat's collar and literally dragged me back upstairs to the bed...
I heard a knock on a door which ended my flashback.
"Yes?"
The door was opened by blonde girl. As always, she brings me a tea at least one times a day. And it's one of those medical stuff that taste really, really, really bad.
"I don't wanna" I acted like a child hiding under bed covers.
"You have to. Or you won't get better"
"I'm not trying to get better"
Yui placed teacup on my nightstand.
"What do you mean your not trying?"
I sat up in my bed and looked at confused blonde girl.
"Well yeah, I feel like a shit but the good things is that I don't need to get up early and go to school. And beside all these days I was staying in my room and I think guys deserve some rest from me. Mostly Reiji. He was the one you kept dealing with my craziness the most. Well Subaru too. I could count Shu as well. Ayato too... Laito... Kanato...you...a whole society. Wow I'm really annoy a lot of people."
Yui giggled "You don't bother me"
"Really?" I looked at her suspiciously "You haven't drank something that tasted funny, right?"
"No" She sat on my bed "Sure, first few days I was really questioning your sanity"
"...I like you too" I said sarcastically
"I feel like, that with all those things that you do and no matter how crazy they are, you also bring something pleasant too. When I got here the mansion's aura was dark, scary, devastating. And it still is. But since you got here, you warmed everything up a little bit"
I blinked few time "I didn't knew you were thinking of me like this" I smiled a little.
"It's true."
"Huh" I looked up and tilted my head to the side.
"And there's another thing" now Yui was a little more excited "Don't tell that you heard that from me but guys started to get paranoid."
"What?" I giggled
"They started to think that you're planning on something. Like a prank. And they're trying to find out what it is because it's too quiet."
"That's so stupid. I lay all day in bed. In this condition I could bearly do something for them" I kept giggling
"If you ask me" she stood up taking tray in her hands "they just miss you even tho they don't want to admit it. It's not the same when you're not dinning with us or going to school. So get better soon"
"I'll try "
Yui took her leave. I looked at the teacup that was on my night stand.
"But I ain't drinking you"
I laid on my back. "Ouch" I touched my mouth. My teeth hurt again. I know, I'll be risking asking him to give something from pain. But what the hell.
*knock, knock, knock* "Reiji" *knock, knock, knock* "Reiji"*knock, knock, knock* "Achoo"
Behind the door I heard"Sight...you may come in"
I walked inside. Vampire was standing next to his work desk mixing some ingredients for potion. He turned his head with raised eyebrows.
"How have you been?" I asked
"What do you need?"
'Wow. Someone has his hormone storm'
"Well I guess you have been well then. Anyway, if you have, could you give me something from pain"
He putted test tube in a rack. And opened one of his drawers.
"What hurts?"
"My teeth"
He took a small bottle from his drawer and from a bigger one poured some liquid in small one.
"Drink this. It will only work temporary but you won't feel any pain" he handed me a small bottle.
I took it and looked at him "Thank..you?"
"Now please leave. It's an eyesore looking at you in this condition"
"Aaand thanks for the compliment"
When I left the room I headed straight to my room. On my way I opened and drank half of it.
"It tastes weird" I stooped "Too weird...it's the most delicious medicine I have ever had..I feel...uh-oh~"
No one's P.O.V
When Kayaleft, Reiji got back to what was he doing before. He took test tube from before and putted some powder in it.
"Your manners are deplorable. Entering without other's permission. Only good-for-nothing like you could do that" Reiji sighted.
On the other side of the room, the eldest Sakamki brother was laying on a cough with his legs crossed.
"What did you gave her?" Shu asked lazily.
After a moment of silent Reiji answered "Something from teeth pain"
"Teeth pain, huh?"
Reiji filled the finished product to a small bottle and placed a label on it.
"You're free to go if that's all you wanted from me"
Shu uncrossed his legs and slowly sat up in couch making grunting sound. He leaned towards placing elbows on his legs for support. Vampire looked at his brother with serious look. "I want to talk to you about something."
That got Reiji's attention. He only turned his head to him.
"Remember when that man came to us for dinner. Well he wanted to talk with me privately. And it involved Kaya. You might wanna hear this"
Reiji turned his body and leaned against his work desk with arms fold.
"What is it?"
*In the meantime*
Girl was laying on her bed looking at the ceiling and in one hand holding bottle that Reiji gave it to her.
"Something is wrong. I feel so light headed. But I'm not tired. Hehehe I feel so funny" she started giggle.
