A/N: Hello guys! I'm wondering whether to make the chapters longer, I really don't know how much to write for each ken, I just stop whenever I feel it...um needs to.

ON ANOTHER NOTE: BLOOD DRIVE WAS RELEASED TODAY! The trailer makes it look amazing, and someone has already uploads the first to parts of chapter 00 but unfortunately it's in Japanese so I can't read it, but the new models for the sprites look great, and Yoshiki seems to have new character designs which is AWESOME! Do you want a English version of blood drive to come out? Leave an opinion and review below! Bye!

Their meal had been pleasant enough, and Ayumi offered to pay since she did go a bit crazy with the paint and brushes. Yoshiki had no objections so she went ahead, leaving a small tip. Yoshiki glanced through the window outside. It was quite dark now, and the silvery moon cast a bright glow on the gentle waves below it, making it look quite appealing indeed. They left the restraunt hand in hand, staring at the dappled sea close to them. It was a fairly humid night, and they both had the same thing in mind.

"Ill race ya!" Challenged Yoshiki, running down the steps onto the soft sands of the near by beach. Ayumi laughed, elated, and carelessly kicked of her sandals, dumping them next to Yoshikis black trainers, which were abandoned next to the stairs. Yoshiki was already approaching the waves, but Ayumi decided to quickly roll her leggings up in order for her not to get wet. She crashed into the icy water, a freezing shock running through her legs as her warm body reacted to the sudden change in temperature. Teeth chattering, she thrashed her way through the waves and joined Yoshiki, who was already knees deep in the water. He pointed at the sky, picking out the pin-pricked stars dotting the midnight blue sky. Distracted, Ayumi let her guard down, and gave Yoshiki the perfect opportunity to splash her, which in deed he did.

"HEY!" she shouted, playfully splashing him back, accidentally hitting his joyful face, soaking his bleach blonde hair. He looked kind of like a dog that had just gone swimming, and she half expected him to thrash his hair about it that like manner, but instead he simply splashed her back. He got his revenge, now her hair was soaking, and her hair ties had actually come undone. Her blue-black hair flew everywhere in the sea breeze, making it difficult to see and annoyed her greatly. Yoshiki took her hand; they were standing directly under the mystical moon.

"Hinoe says, when ever you enter the sea, you should make a wish," Ayumi recalled, clutching his wet hand happily. "Let's make one!"

"Why bother?" he questioned, pushing her damp hair out of her sapphire eyes, "When mine has already come true?"

Ayumi gazed at his adoring eyes as he wrapped himself around her, gently tilting her chin. Suddenly, she found her arms around his sturdy neck, and her face now only inches away from his.

"This is what I want," he whispered, Ayumi feeling his warm breath against her flushed cheeks.

"This is what I want too," mumbled Ayumi, standing on her tiptoes, still holding him tightly. A thousand fireworks went off in her body as their lips met, electric sparks whizzing through her mouth and face. Yoshiki pulled her even closer, the fire in his eyes fading as he closed them, passion burning through his heart. He couldn't believe this was happening, but sure enough Ayumi was returning his affection with just as much genuine passion as he had for her, and it felt perfect. The waves still lapped against their legs, however, they were too wrapped up in the moment to really care. The moon cast their joint silhouette onto the waves, fading away into the cool water...

"Ayumi..." he mumbled, pulling away from her, quite breathless, "I love you."

Ayumi looked up at him, stroking his slated jawline, then slowly tracing his warm features just like he had done to her earlier in the month.

"Yoshiki..." Ayumi said, pulling away from him. "I'm getting really wet. Can we get out of the sea now?"

Yoshiki was taken a back by his sudden request. Stupid him, Ayumi must of thought he was over doing it a bit, no wonder she wanted to get out.

"Uh..Sure!" he replied taking her damp hand awkwardly, wishing he had done it sooner.

Ayumi smiled warmly to herself. She loved their stupid, awkward but cute relationship more then anything in the world. She didn't want to lose him now...

"You don't have to sleep on the couch!" protested Ayumi, as Yoshiki placed a duvet and pillow on it, still blushing from the events on the beach. "I'll sleep here."

Yoshiki squeezed his girlfriends arm, comfortingly, letting her get her way once again.

"Okay, but if you have anymore of those horrific dreams or visions, come straight to me." Ayumi nodded, grabbing her stuffed bag from the side of the room, wondering what on earth Hinoe had packed for her. Yoshiki was about to leave, to go to his room, when he felt a light hand on his shoulder.

"Thanks for today," Ayumi, whispered, genuinely grateful for his company.

"No problem," Yoshiki grinned, wondering whether he should kiss her again. He decided not to push it too far, and disappeared into his newly painted room.

Meanwhile, Ayumi was sat on the couch, emptying the contents of her bag. Various things fell out, like clothes and money, but Ayumi knew Hinoe had packed it for a reason. Much to her surprise, the spirits notebook was nestled right at the bottom of the bag, with a neon pink post it note stuck to the cover. Curious, Ayumi quickly put everything back into the bag, before reading the note with darting eyes. As she read, she could almost hear Hinoes voice, but that was just her imagination, surely.

Hi sis - turn to page 17 please, there's something interesting I'd like you to read.

I hope you have a good time tonight, but don't get ahead of yourself!

*\(^o^)/ Love Hinoe*\(^o^)/ x

Get ahead of herself? Hinoe was soo suggestive! She'd never dream if doing that...well...humph. Her sister knew her really well, better than anyone, even Yoshiki! She would often talk about her worries to her, and Hinoe would always come up with multiple solutions, often working out all Ayumis problems. She was the only one she had spoken to about the heavenly host events, since she was the only one who believed her. Remarkably, Hinoe seemed to remember all of her classmates who had died there, but that wasn't surprising because like Ayumi, she was gifted with the power of sensing spirits. Careful not to damage the pages, she flicked through the white pages of the book, stopping at page 17. It was filled with her sisters neatly written notes, and there were various numbers and names highlighted in red.

'Note one: I seem to sense the same presence every time I enter the hospital to visit Paizu, a sick friend, from that assistant doctor that runs around ...for Dr Katma. There's something about time that makes he unsettled...I think he knows about...close to a victim...remember, but still...says the name, shin..."

She couldn't make sense of the jumbled notes, and was worn out from the busy day. Thinking this could wait, Ayumi put the book down, and tucked herself under the covers, before switching the lamp of which was next to her. Her head started to fill with ideas in what the notes could mean, however, this didn't stop the tired girl from falling into a light slumberI.

It was dark, and Ayumi woke up with a start. She hadn't had another ghostly dream but something strange and eerie was keeping her awake. Suddenly, she felt cold, and realised that the thin duvet must have off the couch whilst she had been sleeping, since it was now lying on the floor, covering the spirit book. Tired, she got up, her bare feet cold on the ofloor boards. She was wearing a neutral vest and warm kimono, but she was shivering in the darkness and didn't want to be alone anymore. That left her only one option. Careful not to make a noise, Ayumi pushed open Yoshikis bedroom door, sliding through the slight gap as efficiently as a snake. She spotted Yoshiki fast asleep, sprawled all over the bed. Sighing, she kicked the door to, and got up quietly onto his bed. She smiled, wrapping herself up in the cotton covers, her slight body close to his. Although asleep, Yoshiki seemed to notice her presence, and pulled her closer to him, one arm around her waist. Ayumi loved it when he did that, even if he was asleep, it made her feel secure and safe, so she snuggled closer to him, curling up into his chest. She knew that she'd never be able to do anything like this with Satoshi, even when she had still had that stupid crush on him. Even if her and Yoshiki were just friends, she also knew he still would let her sleep by him if it made her feel comfortable. She hadn't seen him for who he really was, all those months ago, and Yoshiki had taught he'd never ever to judge someone as soon as you meet them. Because your never know what your going to miss out on...

Review if you love Yoshiki x Ayumi!
