Rebekah Finds Out

Yoko had made it to the house just in time to put on his other disguise and tell Kuronue all of what had happened. When the team had arrived the demons were in there human disguies. Before supper he showed Rebekah where her room was and showed her where the extra clothes were.

At first he protested against her staying but when he saw Rebekah again he just couldn't resist he also remembered that Kelsey had said he could tell a Rebekah about the curse. So he decided that when she had found out about him being a demon he would tell her. After supper they all sat in the living room and Nakada sat on the couch away from Yoko. Rebekah sat with him though and talked to him a bit and sometimes joining in other conversations with the other girls.

When it was ten o'clock they all went to bed. Before Jennah and Nakada went to sleep they went to check on Rebekah. She was sleeping soundly with her head on the pillow and her arms wrapped around it. They both smiled and went to their rooms when they had made sure that she was safe.

Around eleven o'clock, Rebekah woke up from a nightmare and looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings. Then she remembered that she was staying at the team's house. She sat back into the covers trying to go back to sleep but she couldn't. Discouraged she got out of bed and went to Nakada's room to see if she could help.

Yoko was in Nakada's room again that night sitting on her bedside and he was gently stroking her face trying to hold back tears, "I know you hate me Nakada but can't you see that you are also hurting me as well?" he leaned in closer to her face and laid his forehead on hers. A single tear fell from his eye and it landed on her cheek. She stirred a bit and he froze as he sat up. He wiped the tear away and she snuggled close to him. It's then that he remembered what he had hear her think at school today,"But if you hate me then why would you want to talk to me? Probably to tell me that you want nothing to do with me. You would probably be better off with that MATHEW anyway." He leaned over to her face and laid his head on top of hers again but this time he moved his head to the side of her face so they were cheek to cheek, "But I just can't wait around dying and know that there is another man out there that can make you laugh and is perfect for you...and isn't a demon," he lifted his head and gently placed his index finger under her chin and tilted her head up, "I might not know how to treat you right but I would love you more in a day then he would in million years," and he gently kissed her on the lips.

Yoko was so busy talking to the sleeping Nakada that he hadn't noticed that Rebekah was standing by the door and she had heard and seen everything. She gave a little sound by accident and quickly covered hr mouth. Yoko's ear twitched in her direction as he broke the kiss and looked at her. She almost screamed when she saw his ear move but she was frozen with fear as he looked at her wide-eyed.

With his demon speed he quickly ran up to her and covered her mouth with his hand, "Don't make a sound Rebekah and don't even think of using your psychic powers," she nodded nervously and he led her to the balcony. Then he lifted her up and jumped over to his balcony.

He landed gracefully and walked into his room while still carrying her. He set her down on the bed and sat down beside her looking down at the ground while Rebekah just stared at him. Is this why he didn't want me here? Is he a…a…a demon? And if he is does that mean Kuronue is a demon as well? But they don't act anything like demons. Wait…there was something on the news about a demon sighting not far from here. And the demon was supposed to look somewhat like a fox. Does that mean Nakada is a demon to? It wouldn't surprise me the way she sings.

"Nakada is not a demon," Yoko was still looking at the floor but he had heard all of Rebekah's thoughts. She looked at him surprised and then she backed away remembering that Nakada said he was a psychic as well. He felt her back away and sighed as he closed his eyes. He then turned to her and she froze, "Rebekah I'm not going to hurt you and only Kuronue and I are demons. The rest of the team are humans with extraordinary powers," he reached a hand out to her asking her silently to sit by him. She looked at the clawed hand mostly looking at the claws but she hesitantly took it anyway. He gently clasped her hand and pulled her close to his side and wrapped an arm around her.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed her face into his chest. Then after a while she turned her head and spoke, "Why do you talk to Nakada and kiss her when she is asleep?"

Yoko closed his eyes and a tear fell from his eyes as his heart began to hurt. He pressed her head to his chest and laid his cheek on her head, "What I'm going to tell you must not be repeated to anyone but Jennah and Kuronue all right?" he could feel her nod and he took a deep breath, "I'm cursed to not love Nakada and after what happened the other night I don't think she could ever love me again. Because I do love her Rebekah in less then six months if she doesn't kiss me I'm going to die. But she is the one who has to kiss me on the lips and really truly love me," he stopped and he heard someone sobbing. He looked down and saw that Rebekah was crying into his shirt.

He lifted her head and gently wiped her tears away, "Now, now why all the tears? It's not the end of the world so why do you cry?" he placed a finger under her chin and lifted her head up so their eyes were meeting and he gave a little smile.

Rebekah stopped crying for a bit and gently placed a hand on his cheek her thumb stroking just under one of his eyes, "She does care about you Yoko she told me that after she had hidden herself from the mob of boys that were after us. She is just sad because she doesn't know what to do and she is scared that you might not love her."

He took her hand and slid it away from his face, "But she didn't say that today and things like that can change easily," he looked at the floor again and then he felt someone rub his ears and he went still. He looked at Rebekah and she stopped rubbing his ears.

"I'm sorry Yoko I was just curious and well…" he smiled and leaned her head closer to her. She smiled and started rubbing his ears again the fur on his ears was soft to her touch. She was as gentle as Nakada was and it felt so good.

Nakada woke up and it was in the middle eleven o'clock. She tried going back to sleep but she couldn't. She finally sat up and looked at the wall. On the other side of the wall was Yoko's room. That's it I can't take it anymore! I want to know what happened last night and I want to know if he loves me! Though I doubt it but you never know.She went out of her room and walked into the hallway and went to Yoko's door. She figured he would be sleeping so she quietly opened the door and peeked a look inside.

Nakada's Pov

My eyes widened when I saw Yoko smiling and Rebekah rubbing his ears. My heart felt like it had shattered into a million pieces as I watched them. Yoko opened his eyes and looked at Rebekah and wagged his tail on the side of the bed. It was then that I realized that he was in his demon form and she was smiling! He took her hand and gently took it away from his ears and cupped her cheek. I couldn't watch anymore as I closed the door quietly behind me and walked down the hallway to the stairs and into the living room. I pressed my hand over my heart to try and stopped the aching feeling but it was all useless.

I laid on the couch and closed my eyes as tears fell from my face and I started crying. I guess you really don't love me Yoko. But at least you're happy with Rebekah and I am happy for you.

Yoko's Pov

I cupped Rebekah's cheek and smiled, "Why don't you go to bed now all right?" Rebekah smiled and nodded as she left my room. As soon as she left my fake smile was gone and I felt as empty as before. I laid in my bed and went to sleep thinking that I wouldn't give Nakada a chance to talk tomorrow so at least then I wouldn't have to hear her say she didn't want to have anything to do with me.

Next day Normal Pov

At school the next day Nakada didn't say that much and her eyes seemed to be faded as if there was no life in them. Yoko noticed this so while they were working on their project he started to talk to her, "Nakada why are you so sad?"

She looked at him and there was a faded look in her eyes as if she didn't know what he was asking. She stared at him for a while and put on a fake smile, "I fine Sean don't worry about me," It's not like it matters.

"But Nakada you look so sad please tell me what's going on," she looked at him and it looked like she was going to cry, "Mrs. Hanson? Nakada doesn't look to well, can I take her outside for some air?" Mrs. Hanson their science teacher looked at her and nodded.

He took her hand and went outside with her. When they were outside she still hadn't cried yet but when he had sat her down on the bench and wrapped his arms around her shoulders she wrapped her arms around his waist and cried into his chest. He was surprised by this action but he soon recovered and held her close to him and started to stoke her hair and hush her, "Hush Nakada what happened for you to be this upset?"

She stopped crying as they sat on the bench and Yoko still held her trying to comfort her. Nakada wouldn't let go of him and she started to calm down. She pressed her head to his chest and she listened to his heartbeat and she calmed down all the way, "I have been seeing this guy lately Sean and I fell in love with him. One night he hurt me, he said he didn't mean to but I didn't listen. Yesterday I knew I couldn't stay angry at him forever and since we live in the same house last night I went into his room to ask what had happened and I saw him with Rebekah. She is living in the same house now for the time being. He seemed to be so happy with her and I just felt my heart shatter. I went into his room because I was going to ask him if he loved me because once I woke up and he was kissing me so I thought maybe he cared about me the same way. I had felt so wonderful that I wished that I had kissed him back but I was scared he would get angry with me and go away. I guess he doesn't love me after all."

Yoko looked at her as she laid her head against his chest. She saw that? Oh Nakada I don't love anyone but you. He held her close, "You know maybe you misunderstood what he was doing. Rebekah was pretty beaten up yesterday. Maybe she sot his companionship."

She looked into his new emerald green eyes, "I don't think so Sean. This isn't the first time he has hurt me or pushed me away. I wasn't even the first girl he met. He didn't even have any intention on telling me and he read my diary. So I don't think he does love me and every time I think that it just hurts."

"Then don't think that Nakada!" forgetting about what he looked like he kissed her gently on the lips. She was surprised at first but she embraced the kiss and placed her hands on his chest. While he put his hands at her sides. She didn't resist in the least. She felt like he had the right to hold her like that.

Then he began to deepen the kiss as he licked the bottom of her lip. She gasped and pulled away with her hands at her side holding the bench looking at the ground and it looked like she was going to start crying again.

"I…I'm sorry Nakada. I didn't…" she put a finger to his lips.

"It isn't your Sean. It's me. I'm still in love with Yoko and I don't feel right if I give my heart away to someone else because he still has it."

"Nakada…I know I'm asking a lot but you are right. And before we get to far into this you only saw him with Rebekah. You didn't see him kiss her did you?"

She shook her head no, "No but they might have when I just couldn't watch them anymore," she wrapped her arms around herself and leaned forward.

He looked at her and then wrapped his arms around her. His body was smaller and less built but she still fit into his embrace perfectly. He pressed her head to his chest and laid his head on hers closing his eyes.

She didn't resist at all as she listened to his heartbeat. It seemed like she had heard it before but she didn't know where. She pushed that thought aside as she wrapped her arms around his waist feeling safe and protected in them.

Before either of them knew it, it was lunchtime. Nakada was so peaceful and with her eyes closed he thought she was asleep. Then the bell for lunch rang and all the students left their classes and went out the door.

Yoko saw Mathew come out of and when he saw him with his arms around Nakada he glared at him and he just smiled at his pathetic attempt. Then he felt Nakada start to let go of him. He sighed and held her by the shoulders so he could see her face.

She looked at him and smiled, "Thank you Sean, you make a great friend," and with that she kissed him gently on the cheek and walked away when she saw the gang with a slight blush on her face.

He smiled as he watched Nakada leave and join her friends. Please let her forgive me. He thought as he got up to leave only to be mobbed by his new fan girls.
