Alright...to our ONE faithful reader....sorry this took so long to post, my home computer blew up, so I have to go to my parents to type up chapters...and it's an hour drive. Also, my friend and I have started on a new fic...the link will be in my profile. If you like fast cars, Japanese girls and vampires, you should check this story out.
Stretching her back a bit, Yuki rolled over and cuddled up to a pillow, refusing to believe it was morning. The warmth seeping from her pillow only added to her desire to fall back asleep. 'Mmm...warm pillow...and it's....breathing?'Her thoughts suddenly derailed as she cracked open her eyes, meeting nothing but pale skin. Her face was effectively buried in Vincent's neck. Panic filled her and the only reaction she could come up with was:
"AAAAHHHH!!!!" Her high pitched scream woke Vincent rather roughly from his sleep. He jumped up from the bed, stumbling back a bit, bot hands pressed over his left ear. He rubbed it slowly with a finger as he glared at Yuki, who was wrapped in a sheet.
"Ow." He said as if it was the most obvious statement in the world, still massaging his damaged ear.
"You deserved it! Why were you on my side of the bed?!" Yuki asked, clutching her sheet tightly.
"You're side of the bed? You were the one who decided to scream in my-"
"Wait...What were you doing in bed with me?!" The girl suddenly shouted, drowing out his words. He recoiled in slight fear. "And put some clothes on!" She grumbled, averting her gaze.
"I do have clothes on..." He retorted, wanting nothing more for her to quiet yelling and let him get some asprin for the headache she was doing nothing to help.
"Oh really..." She asked, her red eyes boring into his own. "Then what's that?" She asked bluntly, pointing to his crotch, a frown firmly set. Vincent scoffed and looked down, waiting to see his pants in place as usual, or at least his boxers, but instead saw nothing but pale skin and dark hair. He fought down the rather girly 'eek' that had attempted to escape and instead, grabbed a pillow and covered himself.
"We...didn't...sex...no-sex..." He stuttered, falling backwards into the recliner, pillow still firmly in place.
Yuki began stalking around the room, picking up her various bits of clothing. "I don't know. I can't even remember last night." She stated, growling in frustration as her usually well kept hair fell into her face. She tucked it roughly behind her ear before sitting on the bed. Vincent noticed her wince as sent her a questioning glance. "I'm sore...alright?"
Suddenly the truth behind her words sunk in.
"WHAT IF I'M PREGNANT?!"
Valena was leaning agaisnt the wall, a glass acting as an amplifier between the wall and her ear. She was giggling at what was happening in the next room over.
"You know...you prolly don't need that to hear them. These walls are paper thin, daze to." Reno stated, who was lying on his back on the bed, rubbing his temples, a pillow resting across his face.
Valena looked over her shoulder at the red head. "Yeah, I know...but I've always wanted to do this." She joked. Just then, she heard the bit about Yuki being sore. She laughed and turned a bit to Reno. "She thinks the soreness from the fight yesterday is from sleepin' with Vincent!" Her laughs were quickly cut off by a yell.
"WHAT IF I'M PREGNANT?!"
Valena quickly dropped the glass and stumbled backwards before turning and jumping into the bed next to Reno. "What exactly did happen last night?" She asked, getting nothing more than a shrug from her counterpart. After a few moments he replied.
"Who knows. Our luck? After we put them in bed together, they were able to string together enough coherent thought to shag like little bunnies and she will get pregnant, and then we'll be to blame." Reno scratched his chest idly, causing Valena to glance over at him. She knew she'd made a mistake, for now, she couldn't bare to pull her gaze from his face, his hands, his hair... He caught her stare, but she only blushed and smiled shyly before finally looking away. And before she knew it, she felt embarrassed.
She'd slept in her clothes of course, Rude had all of their bags in his room. And after the day's journey yesterday along with sitting in the smoke filled bar for hours, she knew she couldn't smell that appealing. Eyeing the bathroom door critically, she began debating on if she wanted to risk taking a shower with Reno in the same room. She chewed on her lip absentmindedly before chancing one more look at Reno. Only this time, he was staring back.
Suddenly the air around them felt thick as the tension dropped down on them like a heavy snow. By the look in his eyes, she could tell what he was thinking. 'Yee! This is it...the kiss...THE kiss! All shiny and...stuff!' She wasn't exactly sure what her brain had just conjured and disguised as coherent thought, as it made no sense to her, but she really didn't care. They were so close!
"VALENA!" And their moment was gone.
"Hurry! Cover up!" Valena whispered as she frantically pulled the blankets back over Reno and herself, both snuggling in. As soon as they stilled, Yuki burst into the room in nothing but her white button-up shirt, the door splintering a bit from her kick. She ran over to the smaller lump and smacked it.
"Get up! Now" She shouted, ripping the covers from the bed and exposing the 'sleeping' pair. Valena grumbled while Reno curled up rather realistically. "I know you're not asleep."
"Oh come on, Yuki. Must you yell?" Valena asked, sitting up and rubbing her eyes. When she noticed the door, she added. "You'll have to pay for that..."
Yuki growled and grabbed onto the girl's shoulders. "I don't care about the door. What did you and Reno do to us last night?"
Reno sat up and looked between Yuki and Vincent (who'd just walked in,) cheeky smile in place. "We didn't do anything you wouldn't want to happen. With the way you two were going on in the bar last night, we thought we were doin' you a favor."
Yuki glared at him, anger rolling off of her in waves. Her eyes suddenly filled with tears and she slumped onto the edge of the bed, looking over at Valena as if she'd just been told she was going to die...or worse, be fired. "I think Vincent and I...I think we slept together..." Valena shot Reno a look.
"You know," Reno began, "I did hear some weird noises last night...I was so out of it, I didn't really think about what could have been banging..." Reno started walking around the room, beating on various objects, each of which Valena shook her head to. When he was coming back to sit down, he 'stumbled' and 'fell' onto the foot board, causing the bed to hit the wall.
"That's it!" Valena exclaimed.
"There was also this weird chanting and grunting and moaning...'yes yes, that's it, OOOH VINNIEEEE!" His voice an octave or two higher than his normal tone. He grabbed Valena and threw her on the bed. "OOH VINNIE!!" He squealed again, thumping the bed against the wall.
"OOHH YUUKII!" Valena joined in, making her voice deep. Both of the pranksters dissolved into laughter, rolling about on the bed, congratulating each other on their superb acting skills.
Yuki on the other hand looked as if she was about to shatter. She started thinking over the previous night and her over-active imagination along with the rather vivid re-enactment started creating scenes that her mind started using as memories. She panicked, her breath coming shorter and shorter.
"Crap..." Vincent mumbled. "She's hyperventilating." He pointed out as he rushed to her side, pulling her shaking hands form her throat and chest. Reno and Valena untied themselves from the sheets that had entwined around their bodies during their twisted version of last night's events.
"Calm down..." Valena said lowly, fanning the girl with her hands. "Come on, now...breathe." Yuki took a few deep, calming breaths and placed the back of her hand and wrist over her eyes.
"Yeah, chill. It was just a joke." Reno added, patting her back. Yuki stilled completely and lifted her hand to glare at her lazy counterpart, eyes blazing with insanity.
"It. Was. A. WHAT?!"
Valena laughed nervously and tried to scoot back behind Reno for protection, but in a flash Yuki was on top of her. Yuki's hands had found Valena's neck and she was now choking and violently shaking the poor girl. "HOW COULD YOU PLACE SUCH AN AWFUL JOKE ON ME?!" Yuki shouted in time with her shakes.
Vincent quickly ran over and grabbed Yuki around the waist with one arm, his other hand rushing to pull her fingers from the, now blue, girl's neck. Reno grabbed Valena in hearly the same fashion, but one arm around her upper chest, the other slung low around her hips. Both men pulled and stumbled back as Yuki's grip broke. Reno instantly began nursing Valena's neck while Vincent was still trying to restrain Yuki, who was kicking and growling, trying to get back to Valena.
"Don't worry." Vincent whispered lowly in her ear, causing her to fall still, a small shiver running down her spine. "We'll get them back..."
They both smirked.
Soon after the incident, Vincent and Yuki returned to their room to finish getting dressed. Vincent sat in the recliner while Yuki grabbed a quick shower. He was thinking over the previous night and morning. He'd never been a really deep sleeper, waking at any possible noise, so he'd been awake long before Yuki announced her presence to shrilly this morning. He'd woken to find her small body draped across his own, light breaths on his neck, and yet he had no urge to move her. Of course it had entered his mind that they could have slept together, but he was pretty sure they hadn't. It wasn't until she admitted that she was sore. It wasn't her words that made him worry, but the fear that was so clearly written on her face.
And then he had promised her revenge.
It wasn't often that well-laid plans drifted into his head. He usually left that for people who actually had the time. But this one hit him hard as he looked around the exact replica of Valena and Reno's room.
As soon as Yuki emerged from the bathroom running a hand through her chin length hair, he told her of his plan.
With an evil smirk as approval, then began working.
