Chapter 12

"Yui-chan, it's been so long since you've seen me." Kanato whined, tears forming in his eyes as he spotted Yui coming down the hallway. She was just about to head off to school but, with a face like that she couldn't possibly tell him she couldn't see him. "Do you hate me? You must hate me, don't you?"

"K-Kanato-kun, it's nothing like that. I don't hate you." The blonde reassured, giving him a small hug. She supposed she had spent a lot of time with his brother lately. The last time she remembered spending a significant amount of time with Kanato was... Well, she'd rather not remember that night at the fair.

"Stop putting your chest in Teddy's face. You're so improper." The small vampire growled, instantly backing off of her.

"A-ah, I'm sorry. I just wanted to give you a hug, but it's difficult when you're always holding Teddy."

Kanato looked down at the bear and then up to the girl, setting Teddy down before throwing himself at Yui, wrapping his arms around her tightly. The blonde hugged him back, not thinking anything of it until she felt him smell her neck. "K-Kanato?" She asked unsurely, feeling a bit scared. He was holding her so tightly she wouldn't be able to get away if needed.

"Yui-chan's blood smells a little different." He stated, snuggling against her, almost like a kitten. Kanato was really cute sometimes, Yui thought. "It almost reminds me of Teddy..." The boy said softly, causing her head to spin. That had to be the best compliment coming from him, considering he loved Teddy so much. She sure hoped he didn't have the wrong idea about her. Was it not obvious she loved his brother?

Yui clutched on to the back of his blazer, feeling uncomfortable at how long this embrace was lasting. Was he ever going to let her go? "Kanato-kun, I should really get going now..." The blonde said quietly, trying to pull away but he just ended up pulling her closer.

"You're mine now. Teddy saw it too when I claimed you the other night." Kanato declared, his voice shaky and sounding like he was going insane. Maybe he was insane, because none of that stuff was true!

Yui tried to struggle to get away, pushing her hands against his chest but he wouldn't budge. "N-no, you've got it all wrong!" She shrieked.

"You kissed me back, Yui-chan! Now admit it to me! I'll break your fingers one by one until you can tell me you're mine!" The boy shouted. He grabbed her hand tightly, planning to start with her index finger.

Fresh tears streamed down her face, unable to say anything. If she called for help, he'd probably get mad and break her fingers anyway. If she said yes, he'd probably call her out on her lie.

"You can't speak? Well, I'll give you 3 seconds to decide. I hate waiting." The vampire laughed maniacally before beginning the count down "3... 2..."

The girl closed her eyes tightly, getting ready for the pain that would come. Why was he so horrible...? She wished with all of her heart one of the other vampires would save her, but who would come if she couldn't even shout out?

"Kanato, Bitch-chan isn't in the mood for your games." Her loves voice lectured. When Yui looked again she could see Laito had grabbed Kanato's hand and pulled it off of her. He... saved her? That was different. Good thing for his ability to appear out of nowhere, surprisingly this time it actually worked out for her.

Her heart started picking up pace, love distributing through her body. "Laito-kun..." The girl said in shock, her tears coming to a halt.

Kanato pulled his hand away from his triplet brother, biting his lip in frustration. His eyes welled up with tears again, upset as he had no control over the situation anymore. Grabbing Teddy, the shorter boy ran down the hallway shouting to her on the way. "I hate you!" His voice echoed, his words hitting her again and again.

Yui held her hand up to her chest, his statement stinging her heart. He probably didn't mean that though. She really wished she could be friends with Kanato-kun, but he was just so difficult to get along with. "Thank you so much, Laito-kun." The blonde admitted with happiness.

Laito giggled to himself, holding his hand up over his mouth. "Wow, it seems I've even surprised myself." He said with amusement, thinking over his actions and how out of character it was for him. Walking towards Yui, his arms found their away around her waist, pushing her small frame against his own. "It seems like tonight, I'm not too much in the mood for other men touching you. Can I be greedy for one night, Bitch-chan?~" The red head asked longingly, as if he even had to- he always got his own way with her.

"You can be greedy every night, Laito-kun." The blonde reassured, resting her face against his chest. Being close to him calmed her down, especially after Kanato had scared her so badly.

"Nfufu, I'll become spoiled that way. I thought you liked it when I was a good boy, ne?" The red head leaned down, looking at her eye to eye, their gazes hanging. His lips quickly met her own, kissing her gently before pulling away again. "Did that turn you on, heh? Since Bitch-chan has become my perfect little slut, maybe I want to become your perfect prince charming tonight." A grin spread across his face.

"You could start by not calling me a slut." Yui admitted with a pout. However, she did feel like she'd changed herself a lot to please him. Things she'd never done before, she would now do just to make Laito-kun happy. It wasn't like she could blame anyone, it was all her decision to become like -this-. Just hopefully she wouldn't lose herself in the process.

"What's the hold up here?" The dark haired vampire appeared, fixing his glasses as he looked at Yui and Laito skeptically. "Don't think I've forgotten about your punishments for disturbing my dinner party. It could happen anytime and I can kick it up a few notches if you decide to be late for school too." Reiji warned sadistically, making the blonde wonder what kinds of things he had in mind.

"N-no, we were just about to head off, right Laito-kun?" Yui peered to her boyfriend innocently who just shrugged.

"Hmm?~ I was just heading to school when Bitch-chan started coming on to me." He faked innocence.

The girls face heated up by how wrong he was. She hadn't come onto him. "That's not true at all."

Reiji let out a small laugh, putting his gloved hand up to his mouth. "I'll see you two at school then."

Yui couldn't help but think he was plotting something.

-x-

When they made it to the night school, the two went to their first class and took their seats. Taking the spot by the window, Laito ended up beside her and Kanato beside him. This turn out gave Yui much relief, having someone there to prevent the lilac haired boy from bullying her any further. Would Kanato ever get over her not returning his feelings... or whatever it was?

"Laito-kun, I'm curious about something." Yui said, putting her finger up to her lip.

The boy turned towards her, his chin resting on his palm in boredom. His expression soon changed to his signature smirk, happy to answer any question she had. "Hmm, what might that be?~"

"Uhm, well when Reiji said punishment, I was wondering if you had any idea what that could be. I-It just kinda worries me is all." She admitted, looking down at her school books and avoiding his gaze.

Laito hesitated before answering, as if he actually had to think about it. "Reiji specializes in making potions. Maybe he slipped one into your breakfast this morning and you could be getting punished now?~"

W-what? What could he have possibly done to her? "If that's true, the same thing would have happened to you." Yui pouted. She was mostly glad there wouldn't be any physical harm done to her- thinking back at Kanato's attempted punishment from earlier.

"Nfufu, I didn't say it wouldn't. You know, Reiji-san seems like a serious guy, but he can have a sense of humor too. I'm kinda excited to see what he came up with.~" The vampire giggled. Of course, he would be excited...

Yui concentrated on class then as the teacher entered the room. She was able to do so for a while until her mind started wandering other places- naughty places. Her glance turned to Laito-kun who just grinned at her, looking even more attractive with the state she was in now. Cheeks tinted pink, and her legs squirmed together, wanting nothing more than to get out of here and let him have his way with her. Surely the vampire would want it too, he was always wanting such things?

Yui had never felt this intensely before, and it felt like it was getting worse. Was this... Reiji's punishment? It had to be. She'd never act like this normally. How come nothing was happening to Laito?

Picking up her pencil in hand, she ripped out a piece of paper and began writing him a note. 'I'm so turned on right now. Want to ditch class?' the note read, a blushy cartoon bunny at the end to make it seem less vulgar. Yui put it in front of Laito-kun gingerly, waiting for his reaction.

The boy's grin got larger and he was trying his hardest to stop from laughing out loud. 'Well?' Yui urged in her head. What was that supposed to mean?

He then passed the note over to the other triplet, pointing over at her as a look of confusion spread across the others face. No, no, no! That note wasn't for Kanato-kun. Yui hid her face in her hands with embarrassment. This was... bad. She couldn't help but peek however, and see the other boys reaction. A look of shock spread across his face, a small blush tinting his cheeks before he turned to look at her. He was frowning too- it was probably too vulgar for Kanato-kun...

Meanwhile Laito just giggled, the small sound making her want him even more. It was taking all of her self restraint not to throw herself at him now. The blonde raised her hand suddenly, hoping this would work out. Her face was still flushed so hopefully she could fake sick.

"Yes, Komori-san?" The teacher stopped, everyone in the class looking at her and Laito's giggling becoming worse.

"Uhm... I'm feeling really dizzy suddenly... Would it be okay if I go to the nurses office?" She asked, hoping Laito-kun would catch on to her plan.

"I guess that's fine. Anybody want to escort her?"

The fedora wearing vampire raised his hand quickly, the other triplet giving him a glare in return. "I suppose I could!" He said, grinning cheerfully. Things couldn't get any better for him right now. He didn't really know what had gotten into Bitch-chan tonight- but he liked it.

As the two made their way out into the hall, Laito chuckled once more. "Do we get to fuck in the nurses office, Bitch-chan? Oh, that would be so hot.~"

"I-I don't know if I want to wait that long, Laito-kun. Let's find somewhere private quickly." Yui admitted, putting her hand up to her chest shyly.

"Nfufu, I like the way you think."

They found their way into a janitors closest, Laito quickly pushing the girl up to the wall. He pressed his body hard against her own, leaning down to kiss her passionately. Yui returned the kiss at full intensity, leaving the boys efforts to look half hearted compared to her own. She slipped her tongue into his mouth, rubbing it eagerly against his as she tugged at his blazer. "Oh Laito, please touch me!" After giving her command, she quickly returned to their make out session.

The boy couldn't help but find himself feeling strange. He wasn't against this, and she definitely wasn't taking advantage of him but- he didn't seem to be enjoying himself that much. In fact, he was still soft right now. Maybe he would get more into it as things progressed? "With pleasure.~" Laito giggled, his hands feeling up her waist and groping her chest soon after.

Yui clutched onto him tighter, enjoying this more than she ever had. She didn't really understand how this was a punishment but that didn't matter too much to her now. Her hands went to his belt, unbuckling it and going to undo his pants. The vampire ended up pushing her hands away, his cheeks tinted pink with embarrassment? "We don't have to go that far yet, Bitch-chan. Wont you let me fondle you a bit more?~"

Laito was... rejecting her? But why? Had he grown bored of her? Was she unattractive? The blonde nodded none the less, letting him continue to squeeze her chest. He didn't seem as passionate about things as he usually were, like he was forcing himself. "L-Laito-kun, if you're not feeling it today, t-then we don't have to." Yui mentioned.

The boy sighed and backed off of her, stroking a hand through his rust colored hair, tipping back his hat slightly. "I know what's going on here."

"W-what?" The blonde asked, watching him curiously. He was so hot right now and she couldn't even have him... Wait, was that...?

"It would seem Reiji's punishment for me has made me impotent." Laito admitted, more amused by it than upset as he started giggling. "And here I'd thought I lost my mojo, nfufufu."

"I-I see." Yui said quietly, wondering what that meant for her 'problem'. Well, apparently she wasn't going to get anything from him. But- she would never think to cheat on Laito-kun, it was against her morals. "What do we do now then?" Her voice was quiet as clutched the arm of her blazer.

His hand met her hair as he ruffled it, grinning at her despite the discomfort she were in right now. "You'll just have to wait until I get my mojo back and once that happens- we can do it as hot and dirty as you'd like, kay?~" Laito winked as he grabbed the door knob, Yui grabbing his arm as he were about to leave.

"W-where are you going, Laito-kun? I mean, just because we can't do -that- doesn't mean I want you to go." The girl begged, unsure what she'd do if she were left alone. At least his company kept her mind off these urges a bit. As strong as they were, she could still tell she loved him and wanted to be around him more than any currently 'potent' man.

Laito put his free hand to his chin, thinking the situation over. "Hmm, if Bitch-chan wants it -that- badly then I guess I could do something about it. I can't stir the ladle but it doesn't mean I can't lick the spoon, nfufufu.~"

The blondes face heated up, not catching the reference but she had a few ideas of what he could mean.

-x-

After school was out for the night, Yui started walking back to the mansion with Laito-kun. His help earlier had held her over for a while, but the urges were beginning to come back again. She couldn't possibly ask him for help again when he wasn't even feeling himself... could she? It was probably hard on Laito-kun knowing he couldn't y'know... He still seemed rather happy though, a slight skip to his walk as he walked in front of her.

"U-uhm, how long do Reiji-san's potions usually last?" The blonde asked out of the blue, causing the boy to peer at her with amusement.

"Why? Are you that eager to fuck me? You're so noble, Bitch-chan. You know, I wouldn't hold it against you if you seeked out another man tonight, nfufu."

"I-I'd never do that, Laito-kun!" Yui shouted, her tone serious. He was the only man for her and even Reiji's strongest potion wouldn't result in her cheating on him, or so the girl believed anyway. Maybe she put too much faith in her own self restraint. "You may not understand this but..." She looked down at the ground before her, blushing slightly.

"But?~ Did Bitch-chan lose her train of thought? You're really an airhead sometimes, hehe." Laito giggled.

"No, it's not that just... I wish you'd understand me for once." Her voice got softer and a bit upset at how misunderstood she felt. She'd told him she loved him countless times, was she saying it wrong or something?

"I understand you very well, Bitch-chan. I know -everything- about you, heh."

"You say that, but you keep assuming all these untrue things about me." The girl admitted sadly. "I really do love you, Laito-kun. Even under the influence of Reiji-san's potion, there's no man I'd rather be with more than you." Her eyes glimmered passionately, hoping the vampire would accept her feelings. He didn't necessarily have to return them, she just wished to be understood.

A smile tugged at Laito's lips, intrigued by her statement. "I didn't say you -had- to have sex with someone else, it was an offer. Go to your room and touch yourself if you please. But maybe be quiet on that one or one of the others might get nosy and want to join. I saved you earlier but I don't know if I'm feeling nice enough for a second time."

Yui's face flushed. He'd totally ignored her feelings for him and just made things into a sick joke. She'd never do such a thing! "W-whatever..."

"Nfufu, you're a strange girl, Bitch-chan." Laito admitted with a small smile. His look made her wonder, did Laito-kun like that she was strange? If so, she could definitely take pride in being so.

When they made it back to the Sakamaki mansion, the two went their separate ways, Yui going back to her room and going under the covers. She clutched her father's rosary he gave her, hoping it would give her strength to stay pure. Of course she'd already went and had sex before marriage but, it felt justified because she loved Laito. Maybe if she stuck by him long enough he'd actually marry her someday? The thought made her face heat up as she drifted off into fantasy land. Maybe they could have babies together too, the blonde thought excitedly.

"You're making me sick. Someone as childish as you would never get my blessing to marry one of my sons."

Yui gulped, her heart picking up pace in fear. There was -her- voice again. She could read her thoughts too? Maybe she knew how much she hated her then. Wait no, she'd just thought it again. Cordelia had definitely heard it that time. "I-It's none of your business what I do. You're dead, right? So you have no say over who Laito-kun marrys." It felt a bit crazy to be speaking out loud to a voice but... crazy had happened long ago.

"Well, that's not exactly true. I'm still alive through you."

Her pink eyes widened. Was that... true? But how? Maybe Cordelia was just messing with her- it seemed like something she'd do. How was she even speaking to her in the first place? Was Yui the only one? "I-I don't understand."

"I never expected you to. Anyways, I don't feel like explaining it to you. What I was going to ask you was, why are you laying here horny when there are other men in this house? Laito already told you it was okay so your loyalty is unnecessary. Maybe I want some more entertainment, nfufu."

The blonde gripped the rosary tighter, hoping it would ward the evil voice away. "I-I'd never do such a thing to Laito-kun. I don't care if he told me to or not. I love him so I'd always stay loyal to him- unlike you." Yui felt satisfaction by her last statement, a small grin appearing on her face.

"Ouch. You know, when you throw out insults be prepared to take some hit back, nfufu. You think you're so much better than me, little girl? How far has your innocence gotten you? Laito hasn't even said he loves you, let alone any other guy. I can't even count the amount of men who have fallen for me, nfufu."

Yui frowned, but she knew Cordelia was right. Other men didn't matter but Laito had never said he loved her... "I-It doesn't matter... I'm sure he will eventually. At least I can say I love him the way he deserves to be loved."

"Ohhh, so selfless you are. You don't care if you're loved back as long as you love him the most? Well, I guess you can have that title, I was just using him anyway."

Her eyes stung with tears, wondering how her Laito could ever fall for such a person. Maybe one could say the same about Yui's own love choices. But he wasn't 'all bad', right? There was definitely something different about Laito-kun.

"Aww, are you going to cry now? Nfufu, I'll let you in on something that may help you out. I guess you could say this is me being nice. You see, Laito loves promiscuous women. Maybe if you become more like me he might say those three words you desire to hear."

Was Cordelia's twisted advice meant to be sincere? If so, did that mean she wasn't so horrible after all, to actually try to help Yui out? On the other hand, she could've just enjoyed seeing the young girl struggle. Either way, the idea was absurd. Yui would never fall so low. She hated herself for even considering such a thing, but part of her couldn't help but wonder if it would work, if Laito would really love her if she acted like this woman. 'Yui, I love you.' The thought of him saying those three words was starting to make her excited, her body heating up as the influence of Reiji's potion took effect again.

Cordelia hadn't spoken again, so maybe she was alone? It didn't really matter much at this point, the urges getting worse and worse. Yui knew she needed release and surely this idea would be better than receiving it from another man? Her slender hand went between her legs, trailing up her school skirt and up her thigh. A tint of red flushed her cheeks as she felt guilty but she could stop herself now, not until- there was a knock on the door.

But who could be visiting her at this hour? They really had bad timing. Could it be... Laito-kun? The thought of him made her face brighten up with happiness, getting up out of bed to answer the door. If it were him, wouldn't he just come right in? Laito had never cared for her privacy any other time. So, that would mean it was someone else. There were a few more knocks as the person on the other side got impatient, Yui quickly opening the wooden door to see- Kanato-kun?

He seemed a bit different than usual, or maybe something was missing. Oh, that was it. He didn't have Teddy with him. Maybe it were the potion but the triplet just seemed more attractive than usual- which he already was quite a bit. She didn't feel the same way about him as Laito, but she really did like Kanato when he wasn't doing cruel things to her. "K-Kanato-kun? What brings you here this late? And where's Teddy?" Yui asked nervously, putting her hand up to her chest.

"I left Teddy back in my room. I wanted it to be just me and you tonight, Yui-chan." The vampire admitted, his cheeks tinting slightly pink. Just him and her? How sweet, but why?! He shifted his feet uncomfortably, seeming almost embarrassed. "Your note from earlier really caught me off guard but..."

The note... The note... Of course the note. She'd forgotten all about that. Did that mean Kanato was here to have sex with her? He really thought she wanted to? The blonde backed up a few steps in fear, the vampire quickly filling the space and grabbing her wrist tightly. She shut her eyes, gasping in pain. This was all Laito's fault for tricking him.

"S-stop it." Yui begged.

His big eyes stared at her blankly, but something still felt sadist about them. "Did you change your mind so quickly? You still want to, right?" He gripped her wrist tighter, as if threatening her to say no. "Right?" The blonde knew if she didn't answer quickly things would definitely get more painful.

To be continued...

(AN: Ugh, I had to write that last bit twice because my computer screwed up. I liked it better the first time around but I guess it's okay now. So, who wants Kanato to get some love? I kinda do but I don't want to reck Yui's character. ;B I mean, she was so determined to stay true to Laito, but if she does she may lose a few fingers, jk. Also, the potion. She's not completely a saint. But who knows!~ Maybe someone will save her? Please review. :3 )
