Chapter two
He next morning woke Hanabusa with a beam of unwanted sunlight since the window was uncovered. Groaning he stood with some difficulty and still hurting limbs and closed the shawls hanging around the window to keep the sunlight out. Turning he noticed that Yori was up. The boy was still deeply snuggled into the covers and her side.
Hanabusa shortly envied the Pure Blood boy but then showed it ruthlessly aside to concentrate on Yori.
"How do you feel?"
She shrugged slightly and carful not to wake the boy up.
"Better as I should, that much I do know. Since I seem to have grown fangs over night and remember some strange events like the three of us running through a Forrest by night, I guess it is safe to presume that I am not human anymore?" He nodded at her softly asked question. Walking stiffly over to the bed Hanabusa sat down next to the slightly propped up girl.
There he buried his head in his hands for a moment, taking a deep calming breath, he faced the opposite wall with the window.
A hand found its way to his back and began to rub calming cycles on it. Hanabusa simply closed his eyes and enjoyed the comfort that Yori silently offered to him. His mind was too weary to refuse it and to be honest, he didn't even want to. He had began to like Yori since that night when Rido had attacked the school.
She had been the first to accept simply what he was as well as she had shown kindness to Yuuki and him too that night.
A short while after it, Yori had suddenly stood in front of the Aido estate and had begged him to tell her that her friend was alright. That moment had Kaname exited the house and seeing her state of distress and knowing that Yuuki missed her equally badly too, Kaname had given in and let the girls exchange letters at least.
Sometimes they even phoned now each other over a mobile phone set that only those two had. Yori was the only of Yuuki's old friends left that she had to talk to and the Kuran princes clung to her like mad. Over nearly the entire last year, he had been the messenger boy for their letter exchanges once a week. At first he didn't want to, later he had actually looked forward to each letter.
After two months the two had began to meet in cafes or the ice pallor.
Wherever she was currently when he found the time to deliver the letters. Naturally, both had began to talk at one point and Yori had found herself back after a while to have to listen at his rants, or his complains about this or that. she never complained though. Always, the petite girl knew instinctually what would calm the complicated Noble down to a point of seeing reason again that not even his cousin Akasuki had managed to do.
This wasn't kept a secret for long.
The latter was just as confused as the rest of Hanabusa's family, about the strange repeated phenomenon of a troubled or steaming mad Hanabusa leave a place, to then come back some hours later, fully calmed down and in an better state of mind as they normally knew him to be in. Naturally everyone had been baffled but he managed it all the time to loose pursuers smartly, even if it was Kain himself who had tried it several times to follow him.
So, the mystery why this did occur was still unsolved, much to the others constant growing annoyance.
Not that anyone complained much about it. A happy and relaxed Hanabusa was almost eerie but a better choice to have around as a unhappy one all the time. They all just wanted to know the cause of Hanabusa's sudden good moods. Maybe it would be usable to keep him in this high spirits for longer and that was why his father still tried to grill his son about it. No use thought, Hanabusa kept his little maddening secret stubbornly to himself.
He didn't want them all to spoil his little time with Yori Chan alone.
Right now, her silent support was balm for his frayed nerves and worn out body equally alike. Sure, there was still the case of her sudden Vampirism to get used to, for her more as for Hanabusa, but at least he knew now that she was ok and that was all what he could think about in the moment.
If Touma Sama had not…
Hanabusa shook his head to keep from thinking that over.
Looking up and turning around, he shortly lost it and simply leaned his head against that of a stunned Yori to simply gaze into her brown eyes for seconds before he leaned back and stood again. "You better wake that little slug up, or else we will never get him cleaned up again or away from you. Most likely he will attached himself to you like, like a third leg or so."
With that he walked out of the room.
Yori blinked at the door then she shook her head softly at his silly quip.
Looking down at the softly snoring and into her warm body snuggling boy, Yori had to smile softly. She remembered every detail of the nasty accident last evening. Well, the most of it, some memories were muddled up. Due her injuries, she was sure. This boy had bitten her, she was also in no doubt about and if she remembered correctly, he had even given her his blood to make certain that she now lived. Hanabusa Kun had given her blood too, as far she could recall.
Although, the thought of being now a Vampire did disturb her on a level, Yori understood perfectly well that they had saved her live.
Also, she remembered the boy cry because of her. Hugging Ryutaka softly she remembered the name Hanabusa had called him by and stroke his head while waking him up softly.
Ryutaka awoke from the unknown sensation of someone stroking his head comfortingly with a warm hand and holding him lovingly.
Since his parents had perished shortly after his birth, he had been raised from nurse maids and teachers. He had rarely known the touch of a real meant concern or such a lovely waking up in his young past. Sure, everyone served him with reverence and also sure, they feared him because of his powerful inheritance and him being a Pure Blood. But true affection? He hardly ever to never got that in his short life before. Many had sought to use him, yes, but no one as far as he recalled had ever truly worried or cared about him.
Looking up, he saw that Yori girl look down at him with a kind and true smile filled with honest fondness and care.
"Awake now, sleepy head?" He nodded shyly. Even her voice was filled with true emotion and not a single lye he could detect in it. She really meant it, it baffled the boy greatly. Made him shy and blush even, something that almost never happened to Ryutaka since he normally had grown into a somewhat pretty nasty little brat duo his life conditions in the past.
Rubbing his eyes he reluctantly sat up too, unwilling somehow to leave this lovely cocoon of warmth and love.
"We both truly are in for a good scrub, don't we, Ryutaka Kun?" He looked down at himself and Yori shortly to blush furiously and nod. Looking back up at the young woman he noted her soft smile at him. another true smile and not one of the many fake ones that he was used to. "We both look like mud trolls! My mother would pop a coronary if seeing us now." Yori told the cute boy with mirth in her eyes.
Soon his laughter filled the room out and was joined from her bell like one shortly later.
Outside, Hanabusa who just walked across the door on his way downstairs heard them laugh and smiled at the carefree sounds. Shaking his head the Noble noted amused that the two seem to get along fine, what wasn't so easy if you took the Touma Pure Blood inconsideration here. But then again, this was Yori Chan. She virtually seem to get along with everyone, even with the brat from hell as it looked, he snorted.
Downstairs he started the computer and read through the mails he got. After that he stared off into nothing for a while. Shocked and furious beyond reason from what his father had found out about their attackers. He soo did not want to be the one who told Yori that it had been her so called fiancée that had accidentally nearly killed her, because he had been in a hurry to get home from an crime scene!
As it turned out, the man her parents had wanted to entrust their daughter too was a secret member of the Yakuza.
He had been at a party of one of their leaders when a gunfight had broken out between rivaling gangs of them. Fearful to be seen or included since he too worked in the politic department, he had left in full speed and this was why he had seen them all too late on the nearly dark road. The driver must have lost the control over the large car due the aquaplaning on the highway and so had headed straight at Touma Sama who was rescued from Aido and Yori by a hairs wide from certain dead.
Not even the Pure Blood boy would have survived such an accident that easily. The chance for him to get a permanent damage or to even die, had been great.
Her father, Hanabusa was told, currently tormented himself for having trusted the other man.
He had the suspicion that his father was right and that this man was a lower ranking Vampire who most likely had charmed Wakaba Dono into trusting him. From what the Lord of the Aido house had told his son, this was quite possible. The other mans reputation was pointing into that direction. Currently his father checked that data.
If he was right, then that guy had to be a level C Vampire but never a Noble like Hanabusa himself.
He suspected also that he had staid under radar of the council to avoid attention so far. Most likely they had targeted Wakaba Dono and his family due the humans influence in the politic and powerful rulers of this land. Her father was known for his wise counsel and for his genius in solving many a problem in the financial sector of the entire land.
He was quite renowned and grudgingly respected for his skill and knowledge, even under Vampires.
He was also handled as a direct candidate for the next seat in the senate or even further up in the future… with such a man in their hands those tugs would have had an advantage in their hands that was immense! Shaking his head Hanabusa looked sternly at the last message again before he called Yori over who just was coming down the stairs together with Touma Sama on her hand.
Seeing his look she let go and sat in his former seat to read through the correspondences herself.
