Vampire Blood

Chapter 2

The next day in math, Miranda was pretending to do work when a note was placed on her desk. She looked at the girl who sat in front of her to find her pointing at a blushing Ryou. She opened the note and smiled. She simply looked at Ryou and nodded, then watched as he relaxed.

"No one's asked me," Yoko sighed, walking home with Miyu.

"Seto tried... and failed miserably. Hey, Yoko, why don't you go with me." Yoko sweatdropped and gave her a look. "Oh, come on! I'm not going to be your 'date'. I'm just a friend who wants to hang out with a friend." Yoko sighed.

"I dunno. I'm not sure I really want to go anymore."

"How come? Because I asked you?"

"Iie!"

"You don't love me," Miyu teased. They both giggled unaware of the being in the tree above them. "So you'll come?"

"Okay, but only because I know you wouldn't let it go if I didn't." Miyu nodded. "Well, ja ne."

"Ja ne," Miyu chirped, walking in a different direction.

"Taidame!"

"Hey, Miyu, How was school?"

"Boring as usual," she said, giving her foster father a peck on the cheek. "Are you working tonight?"

"'Fraid so. I might even be working late."

"Oh. Okay. Well, I'm going to a dance at school tonight."

"Really? Says who?" he asked, giving her a grin.

"Hey!"

"I'm kidding. I'm just kidding. So what do you want for dinner?"

"Whatever you don't burn," she called.

"Hey, watch it." Miyu giggled. Outside in a tree next to the window, the dark figure watched his destiny. As he watched her, he felt as though he had met her already long ago. It began to nag at him but his memories wouldn't tell him. Though, he was determined to remember. Pushing all other thoughts aside, he decided to meet her at the dance. He jumped down gracefully from the tree and headed to the school to wait.

To Be Continued....

A/N: Again... gomen nasai! It's short, I know. It'll get better, don't worry and don't hurt me. Onegai! *Hotaru covers her head with her arms hoping that something isn't thrown at her. Looks around and sighs*

Yami: What are you doing?

Hotaru: What's it look like? I'm trying not to get killed.

Yami: Aren't you a demon goddess?

Hotaru: Hai.

Yami: Then you won't die.

Hotaru: True, but that won't stop the pain. *Looks at readers* There will be more. I promise. *Hangs arm around Yami's neck and gives V-sign*
