Masakazu was on his way back from uni. He was walking fast, as he had missed his bus, but he wanted to get home as fast as he could to help out with Ageha. He hoped Ageha had gotten better since this morning. It still shocked him that he and Makoto had bonded, especially since he didn't know that was possible between two vampires.
As he was walking quickly along the path, a red convertible pulled up next to him. Inside was none other than Kanoe Haruka.
"Hey, where are you off to?"
"Home."
"Want a lift?"
"Actually, that would be great." He opened the passenger door and hopped in.
"Why are you in such a hurry to get home? You were practically jogging there." Haruka said as he began to drive.
"Ageha and Makoto bonded last night, and Ageha was sick this morning, so I want to get home to help out." Masakazu replied.
"Bonded? Really?"
"Yeah."
"Wow. I remember you telling me they were a couple now, but bonding, wow."
"Yeah. Even I was shocked when Kiyoi told me this morning."
"Did he know they were going to do it before hand?"
"Yeah, I don't know how he's dealing with it though, because he and Ageha used to be bonded."
"Really?" Masakazu nodded. "That must be tough on him then. Is there anything I can do?"
"No, it's ok." They arrived at the manor, and Haruka pulled up near the front door. "Do you want to come in for a bit?"
"Sure." They both got out of the car and went into the house.
"Hi! I'm back!" Masakazu called out. Kiyoi came out of the kitchen and greeted him.
"Welcome home."
"How is Ageha?"
"Alright. We found out what was happening; he's going through an un-bonding stage before he fully bonds with Makoto." Kiyoi replied.
"Oh, ok."
"Yes. Unfortunately this means that only Makoto or I can go near him, so I think it would be best if you didn't go near him until this is all settled down." Kiyoi told him.
"Oh, sure. We'll just go upstairs to watch some TV then."
"Ok." Kiyoi smiled and left, leaving the two.
"I wonder why that is." Haruka said as he followed Masakazu up the stairs.
"I don't know. I hope it doesn't last too long though." They walked over to the lounge room, and as they entered, they saw Makoto and Ageha sitting on the couch together, watching boring day-time TV shows.
"Oh, hi. I thought you two would be in your room." Masakazu said. The two were snuggled into the couch, Ageha resting on Makoto, Makoto's arm around him. As soon as Masakazu and Haruka entered the room, however, Ageha started to shake and pushed himself further up against Makoto.
"How are you felling, Ageha?" Masakazu asked. Ageha didn't reply, just hiding away under Makoto's arm.
"Ageha? It's alright; it's just Masakazu and Haruka." Makoto said to him, trying to calm him down.
"Sorry, Kiyoi told us we shouldn't meet. We will go." Masakazu said, realising what was going on.
"No, it's ok. We were just about to go to our room anyway. Sorry." Makoto stood up, Ageha clinging onto him. They shuffled past the two and went to their own room.
"Gee, Kiyoi wasn't kidding when he said we shouldn't go near him." Haruka said, watching the two leave.

Back in Makoto and Ageha's room, the two were sitting on the bed, Makoto trying to calm Ageha down.
"Ageha, it's alright. They are gone now, you're ok." Ageha nodded in response, trying to calm down himself.
"I know. I don't know what came over me." He replied, sighing and hiding in Makoto's chest.
"It's ok." Makoto replied, wrapping his arms around Ageha and hugging him tightly. "I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"For this, for causing you pain."
"You could never cause me pain, Makoto. I love you." They shared a kiss, and went back to hugging. They didn't say anything for a while, just basking in each other's warmth.
"Makoto."
"Hmm?"
"I..."
"What is it, Ageha?"
"I.. uh..."
"What is it? You know you can tell me anything."Makoto separated them so that he could look into Ageha's eyes.
"I, um, I'm hungry." Ageha said, looking down. Makoto smiled. He moved around and began to unwrap his wrist that was bandaged up from this morning. He held it up to Ageha.
"Would you like to bite it yourself this time?" He asked.
"Uh, sure." Ageha gently took hold of Makoto's wrist. He brought it up closer to his lips, then firmly pressed down on it. Makoto took a sharp intake of breath as the skin broke and Ageha started to drink.
Meanwhile, downstairs, there was a knock on the door. Kiyoi went to answer it.
"Kiyoi-san!" Standing on the other side was Ami, her hands full of books. She walked in.
"I'm so sorry Kiyoi-san. If I could have told you sooner, I would have."
"Told me what?" Kiyoi was very confused.
"Ageha and Makoto weren't at school today. I know you want them to go to school every day, so I knew they were skipping. I came as soon as I could to tell you."
"Thank you for your concern, Ami, but they weren't skipping. I let them both stay home today."
"Oh, well, I should give them their homework then."
"It's ok; I'll do that." Kiyoi held out his hands for the books, but Ami didn't give them to him.
"No, it's ok. I'll just go and give them to them myself."
"It'd be best if you didn't, Ami. Ageha is very sick at the moment."
"Sick? Is everything ok? I should go see if he's ok." She started to head towards the stairs.
"Really, Ami, it's fine." Kiyoi started, but she didn't stop. Before he could reach her to pull her back, she was already half way up the stairs.
"Ami!" He called out to her, but she ignored him. As she quickly walked past the living room, Masakazu and Haruka noticed her. They realised she was going to see Ageha, so they quickly got up and tried to stop her. She was amazingly fast for a human, and they didn't reach her before she got to their room. She pushed the door open, and gasped.
There, sitting on the bed, was Ageha drinking Makoto's blood.
Instantly Ageha stopped drinking and hissed, his teeth showing towards her. He cowered under Makoto's protective arm, starting to shake again. No one could move, Ami, Masakazu, Haruka and Kiyoi stood frozen in the door way, watching the two; Makoto trying to calm Ageha down again.
"Shh, it's ok, Ageha, it's ok. No one will harm you." He suddenly turned towards the group at the door. "Please go! Don't just stand there, go!" He said, slightly angrily.
Kiyoi sprung into action and closed the door, Ami and the other two still standing frozen with shock.
"Why, why was he drinking his blood?" She asked.
"Leave." Kiyoi said to her.
"Why is he drinking Makoto's blood?" She looked up at Kiyoi.
"Leave!" He shouted this time. "Leave!" Ami shivered. Kiyoi was yelling at her. He hardly ever yelled, but when he did, it was scary. "LEAVE NOW!"
She ran, down the stairs and out the door, the homework forgotten in her arms.
"Kiyoi." Masakazu said, trying to calm him down. Kiyoi didn't answer him, instead walking quickly to his room and slamming the door shut. "Kiyoi..." He whispered this time, worried for the other.
"You alright, Masakazu?" Haruka asked, coming up to stand next to Masakazu.
"Yeah. Sorry about that."
"It's ok. I should get going anyway. Is there anything I can help with before I go?" He asked.
"No, it's alright."
"Ok. I take it you won't come to the gouken tonight then?"
"Yeah, sorry."
"That's ok. I hope everything gets better soon here. I'll see you later." Haruka turned around and began to walk away.
"Thank you." Masakazu said after him. He smiled.
"It's alright." He left, and Masakazu returned to the lounge room.

Back in Ageha and Makoto's room, the two were embraced tightly; Ageha's quick breathing slowly becoming normal. Makoto felt something tickle down his arm and he looked down. His bite was still bleeding heavily.
"Ageha," he said, "do you want to continue drinking?" Ageha shook his head against Makoto's chest, and Makoto nodded back. He reached over for the bandage and wrapped his wrist again.
He was feeling slightly light headed, probably from blood loss he reasoned, so he gently laid him and Ageha down onto the bed. They soon fell asleep wrapped in each other's arms.
