Finally chapter 2 of this story! I'm pretty sure that was the most reviews I've gotten on the first chapter… Yeah, most of my stories aren't too popular… Well, I own nothing!
How was it possible, to not feel tired and not sleep all night? That's what was up with Rima right now. It was different, since Rima was now a vampire. A vampire… It sounded so strange to Rima. Rima, the vampire girl; Count Rima… That made her giggle slightly. She went downstairs, and saw no one was home. Of course they weren't; her parents still believed she was dead. That creeped Rima out.
"Rima, where should we go?" Kusu-Kusu wondered.
"Um, get blood." Rima muttered. She was thirsty, and drinking water or milk would simply nauseate her. "Geez, I just can't get used to this Kusu-Kusu…" Kusu-Kusu smiled weakly.
"Yeah, it's not every day you're a vampire." Kusu-Kusu said.
"But… vampires shouldn't be real!" Rima exclaimed. "All of this; me believed to be dead, now a vampire… My parents, who really knows where they are… Even the guardians are acting odd! Nagihiko…" Rima suddenly realized he loved her. Even though he had said it, she had thought more of her impulse to bite him. He kissed her! Rima suddenly realized she had her first kiss!
"I'm sure you two will make an adorable couple!" Kusu-Kusu said. Rima glared at her, and strangely didn't feel herself blush.
"My personality hasn't changed Kusu-Kusu! I hate him, he's annoying! I will never, ever, ever, go outwith that idiot!" Rima snapped.
"Um, okay… It was just an idea! You two would be perfect for each other though…" Rima looked at the ground.
"We never would've been perfect, but if we were, it wouldn't be now. I don't know about this vampire stuff, but I'm pretty sure humans and vampires don't go 'falling in love."
"Who says they don't?" Kusu-Kusu asked.
"Well…" Rima was lost for an answer. "He hasn't changed. He's still an idiot! The only way he changed is now he's obsessed with me. Now I'll never escape from the cross-dresser!" Rima decided to go to the Royal Garden. She put on a hat and sunglasses, and put her hair in a ponytail. She looked in a mirror, and she was surprised to find herself looking pretty good.
"Wow Rima! You never wear your hair up!" Kusu-Kusu exclaimed. Rima shrugged, and started walking to the Royal Garden.
"AMIR-TAN!" Rima didn't know who "Amir" was, but she recognized Yaya's voice. She turned, when Yaya hugged her, forcing Rima to fall.
"Y-Yaya!" Rima exclaimed. "Who's Amir?"
"That's your code name that Yaya created." Yaya said. "It's Rima backwards."
"Oh…" Rima said. They stood up, and continued to the Royal Garden. Yaya opened the door, and practically dragged Rima to the Royal Garden. She was extremely thirsty. It was making her uncomfortable, and the other guardians weren't helping. She stepped on her foot to resist.
"Hey Rima!" Amu greeted.
"No, it's Amir!" Yaya said. "That's Rima-Tan's codename! Because we don't want people to notice her…"
"Well, Amir might be slightly obvious…" Tadase said. "If someone figures out that's Rima backwards… Besides, if she's ever forced to take off that hat and sunglasses…"
"By the way, those accessories look nice on you." Nagihiko said. Rima glared at him. "Your hair up also looks pretty."
"Well, you look feminine when your hair is up!" Rima snapped. Nagihiko's face paled, the color of Rima's current face.
"You'd look just like Nadeshiko with your hair up!" Amu said, still unknowing. "Wow, you two really are twins."
"Yeah… heh…" Nagihiko muttered, uncomfortably.
"Tada-Chi, can Yaya skip school?" Yaya asked.
"Well, it's up to your parents, but I'd say no…" Tadase said.
"Aw why not? Wait, we should make a family!" Everyone stared blankly at Yaya. Rima's eyes widened.
"W-What are you implying! I really hope vampires can't mate!" Rima exclaimed.
"Not like that Rima-Tan! I mean, Amu-Chi is the mommy, Tada-Chi is the daddy! Yaya is the baby, Rima-Tan is her sister and Nagi-Tan… he's Rima-Tan's husband!" Nagihiko turned red. Rima glared at Yaya. Amu and Tadase blushed, and avoided eye contact.
"…That won't work…" Amu whispered.
"Why not?" Yaya asked. Tadase looked at the ground, his eyes darkening. Rima was completely puzzled.
"Amu-Chan's going out with Tsukiyomi-San." Nagihiko whispered, so only Rima and Yaya can hear. "She ended her relationship with Hotori-San." Rima's eyes widened.
"W-What?" Rima exclaimed. "W-Why! When did that happen?"
"It happened just last week." Nagihiko said. "I guess she loved Tsukiyomi-San more than Hotori-San…"
"Why didn't Yaya know that?" Yaya exclaimed.
"And me." Rima added.
"Well, you weren't exactly alive… I only found out through Souma-Kun." Nagihiko explained. There was an awkward silence.
"Well, class is going to start." Tadase said. "Mashiro-San, you aren't going to be going to class, so you can meet us back here after school." Rima nodded, a little sad. The others left for class.
"Kusu-Kusu, what should we do?" Rima wondered.
"Well, you were thirsty, so maybe you should find someone or an animal to drink its blood?" Kusu-Kusu suggested. Rima nodded slowly.
"…I guess…" Rima muttered. She stepped out of the Royal Garden. The grounds of Seiyo Academy were empty because classes started. Rima walked by a classroom with opened windows. She peered inside, and recognized Nagihiko inside there. However, as she watched him focus on the lesson, she saw someone else in the class stare at her. Rima recognized him as one of her fan-boys.
"Wait a minute; isn't that Mashiro Rima-Sama?" He exclaimed. Shit… Rima looked away quickly, and continued walking.
"Ricardo-San, she's not…"
"OHMIGOSH THAT IS MASHIRO-SAMA!" Another fan-boy exclaimed. All of them gathered by the window. Rima froze, unsure of what to do.
"It's not her." A voice whispered. Rima would know that voice from anywhere. "That's the daughter of my mom's friend. Her name is Amir Rizicardi." Nagihiko lied. How on earth would Nagihiko know a random name Rizicardi.
"Wait a minute, Fujisaki-Kun's lying!" The kid called Ricardo-San exclaimed. "Amir is Rima backwards."
"The world is full of coincidences." Nagihiko said. "I wish it was her, but it's clearly not… Rima-Chan once told me she would never wear her hair up…" Oh Nagihiko, what a great liar…
"DON'T YOU DARE ACCUSE NAGI-KUN OF LYING!" A fan-girl screamed. Rima jumped, not expecting that. Nagihiko sweat dropped.
"On topic please!" The sensei muttered. However, the class was not about to calm down.
"That has to be Rima-Sama, I know it!" The fan-boy exclaimed. He literally jumped out of the window, and ran to her. Rima looked away, not expecting that.
"D-Daisuke-San!" The sensei exclaimed, rushing to the window. The class was horrified.
"MASHIRO-SAMA! Is that you?" The boy exclaimed. Rima turned to face Daisuke. She knew Daisuke…
"Um, I'm not who you think I am. Uh, sorry. Go back to class, boy." Rima muttered.
"What's your name?" He asked.
"Amir. Amir Rizicardi…" Rima lied, using the name Nagihiko invented.
"But… you're Mashiro-Sama's height!" He exclaimed.
"I don't know who this 'Mashiro-Sama' is, but it isn't me. Sorry, I suppose." Rima walked away. Daisuke looked sad.
"That was close!" Kusu-Kusu exclaimed.
"Honestly, that kid jumped out of the window?" Rima exclaimed. "If Nagihiko's class can get that weird, who knows what would happen if we went to mine?" Now Rima was parched. "Anyway, I need to find something to drink, or I'll explode." Rima looked at Daisuke. She considered it for a minute.
"Rima, don't you dare!" Kusu-Kusu exclaimed.
"W-What am I thinking!" Rima exclaimed. "It's just so tempting…" She looked at Kusu-Kusu. "I have to…"
"Rima, no!" Kusu-Kusu cried, as Rima lunged for Daisuke, and bit him.
"SENSEI LOOK! A girl in the class shrieked.
"Oh my goodness!" The sensei exclaimed. Rima wanted to stop. Resist… Suddenly, makeup appeared on Kusu-Kusu's face, and she performed bala-balance. The hat and sunglasses fell off.
"It's definitely Mashiro-San!" Ricardo exclaimed. Rima was screwed, and she knew it. She changed back, and ran, at a speed that wasn't hers. She was still thirsty, but she was happy she spared Daisuke's life. Or so she hoped… Rima kept running really fast, assuming this was the speed in which vampires ran. She found a dog, not noticing the person walking it, and bit it, sucking its blood. The owner shrieked. Oh no, not an owner!
"S-Sorry!" Rima exclaimed, running away. She completely sucked the dog's blood. She dashed inside the Royal Garden.
"Rima…"
"Oh no, what have I done?" Rima exclaimed. "I'm screwed, I'm completely screwed!"
"It's okay, don't worry…" Kusu-Kusu reassured.
"No it's not! That Daisuke kid might be killed! I killed a dog that was being walked by a dog!" Rima exclaimed. Rima felt like crying, but she couldn't. Why couldn't she cry? Rima figured that she probably couldn't cry or blush… aren't those two things related?
"Rima-Chan…" Rima looked up, and saw Nagihiko enter the Royal Garden. Rima uttered a small smile.
"Nagihiko, what happened? Is he okay?" Rima exclaimed.
"He's okay…" Nagihiko reassured. "Luckily, Kusu-Kusu character changed you in time. He only has a few injuries, but he'll be fine."
"Does the class know about me…?" Rima asked.
"…They don't know anything except that they're pretty sure they saw you…" Nagihiko admitted. "They don't know how or why though. Actually, we were dismissed early, that's why I'm here." Rima nodded, and explained about the dog.
"I really don't know what I'm doing…" Rima admitted. Nagihiko walked beside her, and hugged her. She put her head on his shoulder. Fortunately, Rima wasn't thirsty, so she didn't have too much of an impulse to bite him. "Why did Daisuke jump out of a window?" Nagihiko sweat dropped.
"Well… who really knows? Daisuke isn't exactly the brightest…" Nagihiko said. Rima nodded. "Well, the others should be coming any minute. We only ended a half an hour early." Rima smiled softly.
"…Thanks for trying to cover me up…" Rima whispered.
"Don't worry about it." Nagihiko said, smiling. Rima kissed him suddenly, surprising them both.
"WHAT?" Yaya suddenly exclaimed. Both stopped, and faced Yaya, Nagihiko red-faced.
"Uh, um, hello Yaya-Chan…" Nagihiko greeted slowly.
"Are you two a couple?" Yaya asked.
"No, you idiot!" Rima snapped. "We will never be a couple! He's too annoying!" Nagihiko sweat dropped. Amu and Tadase entered the Royal Garden.
"Hey, what's up?" Amu asked.
"… A lot…" Rima muttered.
"What exactly happened? Hinamori-San and my class heard a lot of commotion coming from Fujisaki-Kun's classroom." Rima was surprised; Tadase's calling Amu Hinamori-San again? Yaya and Nagihiko stared at Tadase in shock. Rima explained what happened.
"So the kids in Nagi's class suspect you're alive?" Amu asked. Rima nodded slowly.
"You forgot to add the part when you two…" Rima covered Yaya's mouth quickly. Amu and Tadase looked confused, when Rima added a quick giggle.
"What happened?" Amu asked.
"It's not relevant…" Nagihiko said quickly. Amu and Tadase shrugged it off.
"Well, I was thinking, just in case Mashiro-San's parents come home, Mashiro-San should stay at someone's house."
"Yaya votes Rima should be at Nagi-Tan's house!" Yaya yelled. Rima glared at Yaya. A thought came to Rima suddenly. Amu did once say Nagihiko's house was large… If he lived in a mansion, Rima decided, that would be awesome…
"Um, well, I don't mind having Rima-Chan, but I'm not so sure she wants my place…" Nagihiko muttered.
"Oh, Rima-Tan does." Yaya said.
"No, I don't want to stay with the idiot!" Rima snapped. "I'll stay at Amu's place, if I get to choose."
"Well, I have hidden people who aren't supposed to be there, but I promised my mom I wouldn't lie…" Amu said.
"Was it Ikuto-Niisan?" Tadase asked. Amu nodded uncomfortably. Tadase looked at the ground, his eyes darkening.
"Yaya knows! Rima-Tan should come over!" Rima looked at her friend, and smiled. "I really want Rima-Tan!"
"Yaya…" Rima smiled. "Fine, I'll go to your house." Yaya beamed. "YAY WE CAN GET CANDY!"
"Well, I can't eat candy…" Rima muttered.
"Well, vampys can make exceptions!" Rima sighed.
"It's not really me, it's my body."
"Still! It's candy!" Yaya moaned. "The only one who hates candy is Tsubasa! Honestly, who does that kid think he is? He's so selfish!"
"Yaya, how is he selfish?" Rima muttered.
"He doesn't eat candy!" Yaya moaned.
"Yeah, but why use the word selfish? He's not necessarily 'selfish…" Rima muttered. "Well, I guess I'm staying at Yaya's place."
"Yay! Yaya's so excited!" Yaya grabbed Rima's arm, and dragged her to Yaya's house.
"YAYA!" Rima moaned. "I need my clothes!"
"Oh yeah…" Yaya admitted. They first to Rima's house, and Rima got her stuff, and they walked to Yaya's house.
"We never said good-bye to the others…" Rima realized.
"Oh, do you want to give Nagi-Tan a good-bye kiss?" Yaya teased. Rima glared at her. Yaya smirked. Yaya snuck Rima to her room. Yaya told her mom that her friend was going to be sleeping over a few nights. Her mom was okay with it, considering that they were going away tomorrow on a trip with everyone but Yaya. Yaya got an extra mattress, and together, Yaya and Rima dragged to Yaya's room.
"They're going on a trip without you?" Rima wondered.
"Yeah…" Yaya admitted. "Oh well, Yaya didn't want to go! However, they're making Unkai-Tan watch over Yaya…"
"Who's Unkai?" Rima wondered.
"Unkai is one of Yaya's family friends. Oh yeah, he's one of Kukai-Tan's older brothers!" Rima looked surprised.
"Oh…" Rima whispered. Yaya got on her bed.
"You don't sleep, right?" Yaya said.
"Yeah…" Rima admitted.
"Ohh… Yaya's going to go to sleep. 'Night Rima-Tan!"
"Good night Yaya…" Rima whispered, watching Yaya drift off to sleep. She saw Pepe disappear into her egg. Rima thought about Nagihiko. Maybe she could try dating him… It's not like she had ever dated before…
Next chapter, some more drama will be coming to Rima. Also, there will be more RimaHiko :D. So, I hope you enjoyed. By the way, I'm going away soon, so I probably won't update for a bit. Please review! I love reviews!
