By the time I open my eyes, I was already home. When she looked in the mirror, the bite marks weren't visible. I swear he bit me. How come the marks just disappear like that? I remember clearly he didn't have any sharp fangs. Vampires don't exist. It was absurd to think that. He still drank my blood. He's obviously not a normal human.

She froze on the spot, when she saw a familiar figure. He was standing outside the

balcony, he easily opens the glass door. I couldn't tell what he was thinking since he kept a straight face.

"Why are you here?" She asked in a weak voice.

"I'm Senri Shiki, but you can call me Shiki if you want."

"Okay Shiki, how do you know where I live?"

"Your address was on your phone."

"Why did you bite me?"

"Because you're my lover."

He steps closer to her, in the living room. Shiki took a strand of her hair and kissed it.

She found herself blushing. I hope he can't see me blushing; otherwise I'll be embarrassed.

"I have to ask you to leave."

"Why? Don't you enjoy my company?"

He placed his hand on her shoulder. Yuuki tensed up at his touch. She was taken aback when he gently took her hand. There was a band -aid wrapped around her index finger. He carefully unravelled the band-aid. He could tell it was a paper cut. Blood was oozing out. He quickly put her finger in his mouth. He was sucking her blood yet again. What is wrong with me? Why am I not stopping him? I'm not myself when I'm around him. When it was over, he silently left. He escaped through the open window.

All I could do was stare at his retreating figure.


The next morning, Takuma and I were having lunch at the park.

"Thank you for making me bento Yuuki."

"You're welcome," she smiled.

The two were sitting on the bench, next to each other.

"Where did you hide?" He asked.

"I can't tell you, it's a secret."

The two of them was enjoying their bento, as they talked happily. Takuma hugged Yuuki. She played with his blonde hair.

"You're my best friend Yuuki."

"You're my best friend too, Takuma."

By the time I got home, Shiki was sleeping in my bed.
