Not Now

Not Now

After Rima was done reanimating last night in her head, she felt as if the world had just lost its gravity causing her to spin out of control.

Did that really happen?

Did that really happen with Shiki?

I am so confused . . . wait!

Is Shiki still here?

She slowly turned herself over praying she didn't wake him up if he was still there.

As she turned she started to feel all the sore spots on her body.

I really need a hot bath.

She jumped when she saw him, thank god he's still sleeping.

As far as she could tell he was completely naked too, but she didn't want to confirm that.

While she was contemplating on what to do there was a sudden pound at the door.

"Its Ruka, I'm coming in."

Rima quickly threw the sheets over Shiki's head pleading to god Ruka didn't notice him when she stepped in the room.

"You need to get ready, class will start soon." Ruka chimed.

"Have you seen Shiki? Takuma said he never came back to the room after classes."

"Um . . . no, I ha-haven't. He probably went for a . . . a walk!"

She chided herself on how lame the excuse was.

Shiki would never trade sleeping for walking around in the sun.

That's when she felt something move under the covers.

I can't believe this is happening.

Now everyone's going to know!

What the hell am I supposed to do?!
