"I don't think so!" a woman stylist said before pulling him by the shirt towards the building. Gritting his teeth Senri held back the temptation to assault her. He was in no mood to be manhandled and this lady has tested him. Jerking way her glared at her, but remained as silent as ever. The smell of her blood had been slightly masked by the down pour. Fear curdled back up as she stared emptily at the brilliant being. Guiding himself inside, he sat far away from the others. Simply watching them move so clumsily about the rooms.

"They're so…stupid," he thought while propping his head up under his hand.

The water still dripped off his skin, as he made it clear he wanted no one near him. This hunger grew deeper, and just when he was close to soothing the burning desire, the pestering humans found there way to them and interrupted. "I should've just killed them," he thought bitterly. However, he knew well that Kaname and Kaien would be after him- along with the entire Vampire Hunter Association. "No…that's too much work…too much effort…not worth, his thoughts concluded.

At some point Senri drifted into a light sleep; after all, it was rather late for them to be up. Quickly awakened by a soft towel soaking up the water from his heavy head of hair, and her sweet scent. "Rima," he smirked while opening his eyes. She told him they could go, and the manager would give them a ride. Mixed emotions trampled through him, he was pleased they could leave, but evermore he wasn't as thrilled to be in the car with their manager."Control yourself," he mumbled to himself silently before nodding to his dearest friend.

The ride was an extensive one, and Senri soon found his head resting on Rima's lap. "This driver is taking too long," his mind trailed, but it didn't last. His mundane eyes studied Rima's enchanting features which soon enough carried him away into another sleep. He held on to the end of her shirt as if it were a blanket and trembled slightly. Even in his sleep the hunger ate him alive.

The car stopped with a heavy jerk and the manager smiled at the "happy couple".

"He's a lucky man," the broad shouldered man laughed. Senri's eyes rolled open and he sat up. The sun was now out and the rain seemed to have vanished.

"It's late," he said out loud forgetting their human manager was still there. Luckily, the man laughed, "You sure do sleep a lot, Shiki," he proclaimed. Senri shot an unamused glare at the poor guy then crawled out of the car. "Does he ever smile?" the human asked Rima while watching the silent cinnamon haired boy stagger to the dorms.

Senri entered the dorms to be greeted by Takuma, "Why are you awake?" Senri sneered.

Takuma quickly fell silent understanding this was one of Senri's "bad moments". Before giving the tired, hungry, and rather cranky vampire some space, he sat down a glass with some water in it and a box of the tablets. "Thanks," he mumbled as his friend left.

"This isn't filling…nor is it as satisfying," Shiki groaned while watching the liquid turn crimson. Sipping it, the taste was so bland compared to the real thing.

"Whatever."

He drifted to his room while sipping his ruby liquid. Once inside the room he placed his drink down on the red oak wood night stand and wandered to his bathroom. Stripping himself of his shirt he stared at his reflection. He was obviously hungry, and the tablets just weren't enough. His hair was frizzed up, but still damp and dark circles formed under his eyes. He was tired as well.

Turning the shower on he watched the mirror become cloudy. His mind wandered back to the thought of Rima, how he longed for the candied taste of her sultry blood. At the same time he craved her subtle touch, and desired her body close to his. "Shame on you…Senri," he scolded himself. Now sitting on the floor as the water ran, still in his black jeans, with his face in his hands.

He hated the desires, and needs that he wanted to fulfill…but they were noticeably there and could no longer be ingored. "Sometimes…I hate rules."
