Hey, guys. I'm sorry, I know I didn't follow the updating schedule I set for myself. DX

I was pretty tired when I wrote a lot of this, so I apologize ahead of time if my writing is below par. The first 1/4 to 1/3 of this is going to be my zombie writing. If I'm correct, this chapter will be up Sunday afternoon to night (Central Time).

This one's probably one of my favorite chapters yet. Warning: there will a a LOT of fluff in this.

Thank you guys for leaving such sweet reviews. :) They really drive me to update and make me smile.

Love you guys. :]


I will break into your thoughts with what's written on my heart.
I will break!
I'm so sick, infected with where I live.
Let me live without this empty bliss, selfishness.

...

Hear it; I'm screaming it.
You tremble at this sound.

I'm So Sick-Flyleaf


I couldn't sleep. The storm from the night before hadn't improved.

I sat on the ledge next to the window, curled up into a ball. The chill hung in the frigid air, causing me to shiver.

I lent my head against the cool glass, closing my eyes.

What is with that skeleton? Was it in any way related to Corey and Grace? Where are Corey and Grace? I haven't talked to them in a few days, which is very unlike them. Why did the skeleton laugh like that? It was... strange. Weird.

Arms snaked around my waist from behind.

"...Hey, Beyond..." I was used to this by now.

"Hello." He rested his chin on my shoulder. "You couldn't sleep?"

I shook my head.

What he did then caught me by surprise.

He spun me around to face him, and planted his lips firmly on mine.

My eyes widened.

What was he doing? Why is he doing this? Why do I like it?

I stood frozen, as stiff as a board.

I didn't kiss back.

His chapped lips melded against mine, moving to suck on my bottom lip.

What the hell was he doing?

After a minute, when I still wasn't kissing back, he bit my lip in anger.

I could taste the blood from the minor wound.

I started moving my lips with his, joining him.

I moved my head away to breathe heavily. As soon as I pulled away and took a breath, he took the chance to pull me back to him and put his tongue in my mouth.

My eyes were still plastered open.

He explored my mouth, leaving no area untouched.

I finally closed my eyes and enjoyed the sensation of the kiss. I moved my tongue to explore his mouth, tasting the slight hint of...Was it blood? It was metallic, yet slightly sweet. I wasn't sure what it was.

He placed his hand on my hips, pulling me closer to him. My skin tingled softly everywhere that his hands touched. I knotted my fingers in his hair, pulling his head close to mine. Our foreheads brushed against each other's.

I could tell that he didn't want to pull away, but he did, leaving his forehead pressing on mine.

While I caught my breath, Beyond started chuckling.

"What?" My voice was hoarse.

"That...Was fun." He was still in the process of catching his breath as he spoke.

"Um, yea. I guess." More like awkward. I could feel the heat rushing to my face.

His hands were still resting on my hips.

Julie knocked on the door. "Time to wake up!" She opened the door to see us standing there, our foreheads touching and our arms wrapped around each other. I didn't notice that my hands were still knotted in his hair. "Oh, my...I'm am so sorry to interrupt!" She squealed, her face turning tomato red.

She turned around to wait outside of the door. "You have ten minutes until breakfast." She called out from behind the door, her voice still shaky.

Beyond laughed again, tightening his hands around me.

He went in for another peck on the lips before letting me go.


It was after breakfast, and everyone was sitting around on the chairs. Their various body parts were flung over the edges of the seats.

I sat on a love seat with my feet stretched out, covering the available seat.

It was the weekend, so we had barely any groups. If you have been here a certain amount of time, you get to watch a movie. I found it strange, since this is supposed to be an asylum, where you don't do anything "fun". It was more like a mental hospital than an asylum.

I closed my eyes, trying to fall asleep for the next thirty minutes...

I woke up from my nap to someone behind me. They were squished between me and the back of the chair, their arms wrapped around me.

I immediately knew that it was Beyond, of course.

I was tempted to flip over and face him. What the heck? Why not? I turned to face him and wrapped my arms around him, tucking my head under his chin.

This shocked even me. Why would I want to do this? Do I really like him? Or is it just that I'm too scared of him to reject his behavior? I don't know, he's cute, sweet, I could even say he's adorable. But he's a killer. He's creepy, sadistic, and scary. I think I like him...right?

Hyuk! Hyuk! Hyuk! I looked up in the corner where the sound was coming from, seeing that same skeleton from before.

What? What are you?

Haha, humans are so stupid. What do you think? I have wings, red eyes, and I am a skeleton.

A-A demon?

Close. A shinigami.

I froze. I know what a shinigami is. I've read enough books on various cultures to know. He's a God of Death.

I looked up to speak to him again, ask him what his name was, since it obviously wasn't Corey. Where was Grace's shinigami? He was gone.

I shifted my focus to Beyond, seeing his eyes closed and his face in a peaceful expression.

I mentally sighed.


Okay. This chapter is cut a little short, but at least it's longer than the ones I've had for the past few days.

The next chapter will have a bit more shinigami, movies, and one more group. After that, the day will be over and we shall go on.

If you guys start getting bored with this, or it's going too short or fast, let me know. I'll do my best to fix it. I only did the fluff since I knew that a few of you wanted them to become a couple. I really enjoyed writing it, though. :)

Love you guys! R&R,
