The Ball...Chapter 1

*******************~FlashBack~**********************************

Yayoi walked in to Shido's office as usual, with Riho making coffee, and Guni bugging Shido. "Shido were having a ball tomorrow night from the NOS and I was wondering if you and Riho would like to go" said Yayoi. Riho walked in to the room with her usual smile, but not the same one she had before she turned in to a vampire. "Wow that would be great, why don't we go Mr. Shido," said Riho. Shido turned towards Riho for the first time in days she was smiling like her old self again. "If it will make both of you happy, then why not" said Shido sitting at his usual place. Yayoi smiled "Great, that's all I came to talk to you about. See you three later," said Yayoi walking gracefully out. Riho smiled up at Shido. "Mr. Shido do you think I can go out tonight to pick up a dress?" asked Riho. Shido didn't like the idea about letting her go on her own. "I'll come along with you, it's not safe even for you" said Shido. Riho smiled at him, even though he knew that she was slightly disappointed.

****************~End Of FlashBack~********************************

Shido walked along with Riho the sun had set but there still was many stores left open. "How about this store?" asked Riho walking in front of a beautiful Victorian gown store. "Sure" said Shido as he and Riho walked in. "Oh how can I help you?" asked an elderly sales woman, who seemed quite pleased that they came in. "What do you think will look nice on me?" asked Riho as she pulled out a orange color dress. Either his opinion mattered to her very much or she was just trying to prove to him why letting her shop on her own would be easier. "I don't think that is your color" said Shido. The sales woman stood next to Shido. "She is with you?" she asked. "Yes, she is" said Shido. Riho seemed too busy to care who was hitting on him or talking to him. "Excuse me where is your dressing rooms?" asked Riho. The sales woman smiled at her pointed towards the back. "I'll be right back," said Riho as she disappeared in to the line of gowns. "Why don't you sit, just follow me I'm sure you want to see how your little friend looks" said the sales woman. Shido nodded and followed after the woman.

They came to a small sitting area in front of the fitting room. Shido sat down and waited for Riho to come out. "Would like a cup of tea?" asked the woman. "No thank you" said Shido as he stared at the entrance of the fitting room. "Well what you think?" asked Riho as she walked out in a blood red georgette A-line gown, halter V neckline that show off her blooming breast, the gown had a natural waist with a beaded trim over nude lining. Shido stared at her for a moment; she looked good enough to eat with the color an all. "You look beautiful," said the sales woman. "I don't know maybe blood red isn't my color," said Riho. *Yeah I see it a little too much* thought Riho. Shido couldn't believe how much she was growing, her body had bloomed so much. Next she came out in a blush satin A-line gown with side pleating. "What about this one?" she asked. "That one is nice," said Shido. "Really?" asked Riho. The Sales woman nodded. Riho still looked unsure of herself. After about an hour of Riho trying on gowns she finally picked one but didn't tell Shido which one. "I'll leave you to wonder," said Riho with a wink. *Yes drive me crazy is more the word* thought Shido as Riho bought some other materials with the gown.

"I hope to see you again soon Mr. Shido" said the Sales woman. Shido smiled and walked out with Riho. "Why don't we take a walk?" said Shido. "Sure Mr. Shido" said Riho as she walked side along him. "Do you regret it?" asked Shido suddenly. "Huh? asked Riho. *God please not the 'do I regret becoming a vampire' thing again* thought Riho. "I mean being with me, not able to go out with your old friends" asked Shido. Rin stopped walking and Shido turned to look at her. "Mr. Shido I have already told you so many times that I don't regret one bit being with you. I like it with you. I can't lie and say I don't miss my old life, but you make up for that, you, Guni, and Yayoi," said Riho looking up at him. Shido smiled "I still feel one day you will hate me, but for now I will stop asking you that question" said Shido. Riho sighed "Thank you," she said. Riho spotted a ice cream shop and smiled. "I'll tell what I do miss, the taste of ice cream" said Riho. "Would you like one?" asked Shido. "No I...it wouldn't be the same" said Riho. Shido smiled at her and put one of his arms around her to comfort her. Riho smiled up at him with a smile.

"Riho..." said a familiar voice. Riho and Shido turned to see Shunichi standing in front of them, obviously going home from film club. "Shunichi, nice to see you again" said Riho with a smile. "Yea...how have you been?" asked Shunichi. "Good, what about you" said Riho. Shunichi looked up to see Shido was playing with Riho's hair. "Riho why don't you two talk I'll be right back" said Shido walking away. Riho nodded as she and Shunichi sat down on one of the benches of the park. "So I see your still with him" said Shunichi feeling jealous at the way Shido was holding Riho. "Yeah, Mr. Shido is my creator and a really cool guy to be with," said Riho. Shunichi took Riho's free hand and held in his. "Riho you know I wouldn't care if your a..." he trailed off. "Shunichi that's real sweet of you, but you can't even say what I am...but I don't hold it against you" said Riho. Shido was in a close enough distance to hear their conversation. *Riho is hurting, but I can't help but feel jealous of this boy, he shared a life with her that I never can. And the fact that Riho is hurt by this boy makes me feel even stranger* thought Shido. "Riho you don't have to stay with him...I already told you that I'm in love with you," said Shunichi. Shido felt pained that he would even tell her to leave him. "Mr. Shido is my family, I care for him very much, and I won't ever leave his side, I became a vampire to be with him" said Riho. "Riho...are you in love with him?" asked Shunichi. Riho stood up "I have to go now Shunichi, Mr. Shido is waiting for me" said Riho as she walked up to where Shido was waiting. "Riho..." said Shunichi watched them walk away.

They walked back to the office to find Yayoi was sitting there talking to Guni. "So where did you two go?" asked Yayoi. "I brought a dress for the ball" said Riho with a smile. "What about you Shido did you buy anything to wear for tomorrow night?" asked Yayoi. "No, I already have something to wear, anyway is there a new case?" he asked. "No I just stopped by to see all of you, I'm off duty for now" said Yayoi getting ready to leave. "Why don't you stay a bit longer?" said Riho. "No it's going to be dawn in a hour or two so I think I'll go home and sleep for a while, I got to look my best for the ball" said Yayoi with a wink. Riho smiled and waved good-bye. "Well I'm tired so I'll see you two tonight" said Guni as she went to her favorite spot to sleep. Riho sat down on the couch. "Aren't you tired?" asked Shido sitting next to her. "I...I have been having dreams that scares me a little" said Riho. "Huh? Dreams?" asked Shido. "Yeah...there is a smooth voice that talks to me, and touches me in a intimate way and it feels so real...and what is even more scary is that the voice sound like..." Riho stopped there. "Who does it sound like?" asked Shido. "It nothing really just a silly dream, I'm acting like a baby" said Riho waving it off. "No tell me," said Shido. "Well it sounds like Cain...but I'm sure I'm imagining it" said Riho with a smile to tell it was ok.

*Cain! What does he want with her? * Thought Shido. "Mr. Shido?" asked Riho. Shido smiled "Go to sleep if you want to look your best for the ball" said Shido. Riho was about to walk to her room, which was generously provided by him, when Shido grabbed her hand and pulled her down next to him. "Sleep here and when you fall asleep I'll put you to bed" he said. "No you don't have to do that," said Riho. "It's alright Riho, I was going to go to sleep later anyway" said Shido. "Yeah, ok," said Riho. Shido sat on the couch with Riho's head on his lap. "Thanks a lot Mr. Shido," said Riho as sleep over took her. Shido smiled at Riho's sleeping form. *I feel so sorry for this one, she has lost her family, now her friends, and she can't even die now thanks to me* thought Shido as he gently stroked Riho's soft hair. "Mr. Shido thanks for being here," whispered Riho in her sleep. "No problem Riho" said Shido with a smile. *What do you want with her Cain? Why her, don't you think you had done enough already? * Thought Shido also feeling sleepy.

Shido woke to find that now he was lying on the couch with Riho on top of him. Shido pulled her closer, he felt safe some how knowing that she was with him. Riho gave off a little sound. Shido looked down to her face, and the sound came again only louder this time. *She's moaning...is she in heat? * Thought Shido as he watched her face.

***Riho was lying naked on her bed feeling the cool sheets under her bare skin, she felt someone grab one of her breast and massage it gently. She let out a pleasurable moan. "Who are you, why can't I see your face?" asked Riho breathless. Her hunter was laughing as she felt something moist on her breast. Riho let out another moan. The mysterious person laughed as she held the sheets tighter. Riho could feel his lips moving down her body, leaving a small wet trail. *I'm not imaging Mr. Shido am I? * Thought Riho***

Shido saw the blush that was now coming over her face, as her moans got louder. "Riho..." he said to her gently, but she held on to his arms as she moaned more. "What the hell is she dreaming of?" asked Shido out loud. ~*He touches me in a intimate way, and it feels real*~ Riho's words drifted through his head. *That bastard! * Thought Shido as he started to shake Riho awake. "Riho wake up! Riho!" said Shido. Riho's eyes fluttered open and close before she slowly drifted back to sleep. "Damn! Riho wake up" said Shido. Riho was already asleep again.

***Riho let out a small gasp when she felt herself being flipped over so she was lying on her stomached, but the real surprise came when she felt a soft finger trace down her spine, and soon replacing his finger was his lips, trailing small wet kisses down her back. "Who are you, tell me please" said Riho. "You will find out soon," said that smooth voice with the accent. "Is...are you Cain?" asked Riho. As soon as she asked she felt a small bite on her neck, causing her to let out a small gasp, and laughter filled the room, and soon all the feelings were gone and a white light flooded her vision. ***

"Riho?" asked Shido when he saw her open her eyes completely. "Mr. Shido...did you bite me or was I imagining that?" asked Riho. "I had to do it to wake you, you were dreaming again," said Shido. Riho's face turned different shades of red. "Oh my god..." said Riho recalling the dream. Shido smiled at her "Don't worry" he said as he stroked her head. "I asked him who he was...I asked him if he was Cain, but I didn't get answer just felt a bite and heard laughter" said Riho still beet red her face buried in his chest. Shido smiled as he felt her small breath on his chest. "Don't worry, we'll find out what's going on" said Shido. "Alright" said Riho. Shido smiled down at her, Riho turned and smiled back, but he could she the slight worry in her eyes. "Do you want to go back to sleep?" asked Shido. "No...I'm not sure," said Riho. "Why don't you try?" said Shido. "I was wondering Mr. Shido did you have any friends before Yayoi, and Guni?" asked Riho. "I really don't remember, but now I have you, Yayoi and Guni," said Shido. "So do you still want to know about your past?" asked Riho. "I guess some part of me wants to, but the other doesn't really care any more I have a good life now, or as good as it gets for vampire" said Shido. "I'm glad that I'm here with you, at least now I'll never be alone" said Riho. "I feel the same way," said Shido closing his eyes. They fell asleep in each other's arms like that.

It was about sunset when Shido woke up to find that Riho was up already. "Riho?" he asked getting up. Riho walked out with a mug filled with blood, which she had warmed up for him. "Here you go Mr. Shido, I'm going back to my apartment so I can get ready for tonight. "Why don't get ready here?" asked Shido. "I have all my stuff back at my apartment so I want to get ready, can you and Yayoi pick me up on your way?" asked Riho. Handing him the mug. Shido took few sips and looked up at Riho "Ok, be careful" he said. "Mr. Shido you sound like my father" said Riho walking out with smile. *Is that what I am to her? * Thought Shido staring at the door. "Shido I wanted to ask you something" said Guni flying over to where he was sitting. "What is it Guni?" asked Shido. "Well it's about Riho," said Guni sitting on the coffee table. "What about her?" asked Shido. "Well what you feel about her? Is she just a friend, a daughter, or a lover?" asked Guni. "What's with the sudden question?" asked Shido. "You're probably to thick headed to notice the girl is in love with you," said Guni. "Riho in love with me?" asked Shido. "We all knew even before she became a vampire that she had a crush on you, but now what do you think she feels? I say you ask her and tonight will be good time to do it," said Guni.

"Why is that?" asked Shido. "I don't know even if you say the wrong thing she'll think you're handsome and forgive you," said Guni. Shido chuckled at Guni but soon his features became darkened. "I don't want to drive her away Guni," he said softly. "Why would telling her that you care about her drive her away?" asked Guni. "It's complicated," said Shido. "Why is it complicated? Don't think just cause it didn't work out between you and that freaky voice guy doesn't mean that it's not gonna work out between you and Riho" said Guni. Shido stared at Guni for a moment "But what if it is like that, what if she doesn't want to be with me, and I scare her off, and I'm not saying that she is my lover" said Shido. Guni yawned "What ever you say Shido" said Guni. "I'm serious Guni what if she gets scared and runs off, she is still so young and who knows what she might do," said Shido. "Gees Shido you're all ready over thinking the idea" said Guni who was floating with her hands behind her head. "I...never mind I have to change for tonight," said Shido as he walked in to his room. Guni smiled *that only proves that you do* she thought.

*What the hell is up with Guni, asking me something like that? Riho as my lover? * Thought Shido as he stripped off his shirt. *Well, she is beautiful, and very tempting...very cute to* thought Shido with a smile. "No! I won't bring her in to another commitment" said Shido. Guni flew over to where he was "If I knew you were going to beat yourself up so much for this, then I would have never brought it up" she said. "No it's not that...it's just I already took away her smile, what else will happen to her" said Shido. "If your worried about her dreams, then maybe you shouldn't from what I heard she was probably in heat and was dreaming of you" said Guni. "No it wasn't me that was dreaming of...it was him" said Shido *Even if I wished it was me she wouldn't think of me that way, she probably loves that boy her age Shunichi* thought Shido. "So how do I look?" asked Shido. Guni looked around him. Shido was dressed in a black tuxedo, and his hair was tied in with a black ribbon, a long black trench coat and white gloves completed the look. "You look great," said Guni. Shido smiled. "I'll say," said Yayoi's voice. Shido turned to find Yayoi in a wild cherry satin faced taffeta sheath with corset bodice and a V neckline that dipped down to show her womanly curves she had on a gray color coat she had a light make up and her hair was left as usual.

"My don't you look beautiful" said Shido. "Shido you flatter me," said Yayoi. Shido smiled at Yayoi. "Where is Riho isn't she coming?" asked Yayoi. "She left to her apartment so she can get dressed, she asked if we can pick her up on the way" said Shido. "Alright then let's go" said Yayoi. "We'll be ok on your own?" asked Shido looking at Guni. "What do I look like a kid to you?" asked Guni. Shido smiled "alright then let's go" said Shido. "Shido remember what I said" called Guni before the door closed. "What was that about?" asked Yayoi. "Nothing, we were just talking about some things," said Shido. "I see and you don't want to share?" asked Yayoi. "Not really" said Shido. The ride to Riho's apartment was a quite one, and seems to take longer then it really was.

Riho was ready waiting for Shido and Yayoi to arrive. "I wonder what taking them so long," said Riho and as if in answer there was a knock on her door. Riho smiled and walked to the door. "Mr. Shido-" Riho was cut off when their stood Shunichi with flowers. "Shunichi" asked Riho. "I saw you coming back to your place and thought I come and see you" said Shunichi handing her the flowers. "Thank you" said Riho. Shunichi took a sweep of Riho. "Are you going some where?" he asked. Riho smiled "Yes, Mr. Shido and another friend is taking me to a ball" said Riho. "Ball?" asked Shunichi. "Yeah, so how do you think I look?" asked Riho. "You look great...beautiful" said Shunichi with a small smile; Riho giggled like her old self. Shido got out of the car "I'll get her" he said as he walked to wards her apartment. Yayoi nodded and waited. Riho and Shunichi sat and talked for a while about school, and other things. "So Shunichi how is Mikako?" asked Riho. "She's good, she still misses you, just like most people" said Shunichi. Riho smiled and was about to say something when that there was another knock at her door.

"That must be Mr. Shido," said Riho getting up from her sitting position. "Can you get that for me so I can grab my coat and stuff?" asked Riho. "Um...sure" said Shunichi. "Riho are you ok?" asked Shido. The door opened and instead of Riho there stood the boy Shunichi. "Is Riho there?" asked Shido confused about what he was doing there. "Yeah she said she had to grab some of her stuff," said Shunichi. "Mr. Shido wow look at how handsome you look!" said Riho with a big smile. "Thank you Riho, come on or we'll be late," said Shido. "See you Shunichi," said Riho waving as she and Shido disappeared. "So are you going to let me see which dress you bought?" asked Shido. "No not just yet, it's a surprise," said Riho. Shunichi watched them get in to the car with Yayoi. "Riho..." he said as he watched the car disappear. "Wow, Yayoi you look beautiful," said Riho. "Well I wish I could say the same for you, but I'll just have to wait for that right" said Yayoi. Riho giggled. Shido smiled she sounded so much like the Riho he use to know and it made him happy. *What was that kid doing at her apartment? * Thought Shido. "We are here," said Yayoi pulling in front of the beautiful hotel where the ball was taking place. "Wow this place is so beautiful," said Riho as Shido opened the door for her to get out. "Well leave it to NOS" said Yayoi. "Alright here is your invitations," said Yayoi. "Thanks" said Riho while Shido nodded.

The group walked in to find that that hotel was even more beautiful then the outside. Riho giggled in excitement. "Riho follow me I'll show you where to put your coat" said Yayoi. Riho nodded as she followed after her. Shido waited for them at the bottom of the stairs after he check in his coat. "Mr. Shido?" asked Riho as she came down the stairs. Shido almost lost his balance when he saw her coming down the stairs, she was in a beautiful cream strapless satin A-line gown, dropped waist and banded mock wrap skirt at back, the gown hugged all her curves, her hair was done in a elegant bun with few curled shards and small Rhine stones on her hair she had on matching cream gloves and shoes, her lips were a summer pink, her eyes where lined with black eye liner and mascara making her beautiful blue eyes stand out even more. "So how do I look?" she asked closing Shido's mouth. "Beautiful" he said as he took her hand. Riho smiled up at him. *Beautiful isn't the word to describe you* thought Shido.

"Where is Yayoi?" asked Shido. "She met with one of her co-workers and they started to chat, he seemed like a nice man" said Riho. Shido chuckled. "So Mr. Shido what do you think we should do?" asked Riho. "How about a dance?" asked Shido. Riho giggled and nodded "I would love to" she said. Shido pulled her in to the crowd of dancers. Shido and Riho moved gracefully as one, and other were small chatters of how cute they looked together. "Mr. Shido I wanted to apologize about this morning" said Riho. "Apologize for what?" asked Shido. Riho blushed again "About my dream, and I must have woken you up" said Riho. Shido chuckled "Don't worry about it" he said pulling her closer. The music changed to something slower. Riho warped her arms around Shido's neck, as he did the same with her waist and pulled her closer. The music seemed on going, slow and soft made just for couples. Riho placed her head on his shoulder and sighed. "You know Mr. Shido I wish this moment could just freeze" she whispered. "So do I Riho" Shido whispered back. Riho held on to him a little tighter, and Shido placed a small kiss on her neck. "Riho...do you love that boy?" asked Shido suddenly. "You mean Shunichi?" asked Riho. "Yes" said Shido. "I care for him as a friend, nothing more" said Riho. Shido sighed and Riho smiled at that *He does care* she thought.

The music ended a little fast for the both of them, as they walked out of the dance floor. Yayoi sat on one of the tables drinking a golden colored liquid. "So how was the dance?" asked Yayoi. "Great" said Riho as she sat down. "Very good music" said Shido. "Mr. Shido why don't you and Yayoi dance?" asked Riho. "Sure, would you like to dance?" asked Shido. "Love to" said Yayoi. Riho watched as they walked slowly towards the dance floor. Riho sighed *Tonight I feel alive* she thought. "Is this sit taken?" asked a all to familiar voice. Riho turned to find a handsome man with long blond hair standing behind her. "Umm...No" said Riho. The man smiled and sat down next to her. "May I say that you look beautiful" said the man. Riho had a faint blush "Thank you, Sir you look very handsome yourself" said Riho. The man gave a smooth silky laugh, sending chills down Riho's spine.

Shido watched as the man approached Riho and sat down next to her, as they talked he could see the surprise on Riho's face. "Shido is something wrong?" asked Yayoi. "Huh? Nothing" said Shido. "If I wasn't mistaken you were looking towards you secretary in more then a brotherly way" said Yayoi. Shido blushed "It's not like that" said Shido. "Shido are you falling in love with her?" asked Yayoi. "No of course not, she is..." Shido started. "Yes, Shido?" asked Yayoi. Shido didn't have an answer for himself how can he answer her. "Shido if you care for her then just tell her, hell the girl is in love with you" said Yayoi. "How do you know?" asked Shido. "Or why else do you think she became what she is, she wants to be with and she's been giving you so many hints, but your too hard headed to see it" said Yayoi. Shido stared at Yayoi "That's what Guni said" he said. "Well she is right, you might as well just tell, before someone takes her away from you" said Yayoi. *Takes her away?...* thought Shido. "Come on you can tell her" said Yayoi taking him away from the dance floor.

"Hey where is Riho?" asked Yayoi. Shido looked around but she was nowhere in sight and neither was that guy that was talking to her. "I'll go and check it out over there" said Shido as he walked towards the balcony, only to find that the guy and Riho was sitting and talking. "Riho?" asked Shido. Riho turned and smiled at him "Mr. Shido" she said. "What are you doing out here?" asked Shido. "Miss Riho won't you introduce me to your friend" said the man as he came in to view. Shido gasped. Riho had a daze look over her. "Mr. Shido meet Mr.-" Riho was cut off by Shido's sudden out burst. "Cain!" said Shido. The vampire smiled. "Hello again Shido..."
