An Obsession with Sex
Chapter 17: troubles and happy endings
Tohru now found herself in a very sticky situation. She had come to save Ako and now was caught as well. Some hero. Tohru would think to herself. She was holding Ako's cold hand while she watched Haseo and Rin with extreme caution. Both of them were probably vampires for much longer than her and were more experienced.
"T-Tohru?" Ako's voice was almost inaudible. But Tohru heard her okay enough.
"Ako? Are you alright?!" Concern pierced through Tohru's body and she tightened her grip on her friend's hand. "Listen, it's only a matter of time before Haru-kun and Kyo-kun get here so don't worry-" Tohru tried to reassure her broken friend.
Ako shook her head lightly. "Haru isn't coming. He loves Rin-san more than me." her voice was dull and held no emotion.
"What are you talking about? Haru-kun adores you!" Ako scoffed lightly. Her throat burning with the sound. "if he doesn't love you why did he stay with you every night while you were at the hospital? Why did he give you that promise ring? And why would he even bother to call and text you every single day? Huh?" Ako shrugged.
"He wasn't there for me when I was attacked. He wasn't there when I was kidnapped and brought here. He probably gave me this stupid ring as if he were my pimp or something." Suddenly Tohru's hand slapped Ako's already sore cheek. Ako's sapphire eyes stared at her friend in shock.
"This isn't Ako Takeshi. Not MY Ako. The blue haired girl that loves anime and likes to have fun. Definitely not the Ako that loved Haru-kun with her whole entire heart. She wouldn't say this stuff. She believes in her friends. And in Haru. Whatever Rin-san has told you is a lie." Tohru glared at Haseo and Rin who were standing on the opposite side of the room. "What have you done to her?"
"Mmm…Tohru-kun you smell so sweet. I remember the taste of your blood. So hot and saccharine." His tongue glided over his teeth as he sniffed the air. "I could drink you both dry right here and now." Tohru's eyes changed to an electric green and her nails grew into claws.
"You've been changed?" Rin asked astonished. "Akito-san…he didn't…"
"I don't really know for sure. But since he's the only who can turn someone." Tohru answered truthfully…Tohru's stomach ached and gurgled suddenly. She clenched her belly and winced at the sharp pain. "Ah…" Her fangs extended down from her gums very painfully and her nose sniffed the sweet scented air. Tohru's hurt gaze met with the source of her body's reaction. Haseo was digging his long nail into Ako's other arm. Dark red blood pooled from the cut.
"Tohru! Make him stop… please! It hurts!" Haseo smirked at Tohru as she hunched to the floor.
'no…I havent eaten in a while…actually I havent really eaten at all sine I turned at least not long enough for my body to be satiated…no Ako is in trouble. Ow my stomach hurts so bad. Tohru thought to herself.
'Smell the hot blood, breathe it in…you know you want it…you need it. Just take a little. Ako wont get hurt. She'll feel as much pleasure from it as you will.' Tohru heard a voice from inside her head. Urging her to drink, to purge herself on the long awaited taste of the blood. Tohru found herself almost hypnotized by the thought. 'go on…drink…drink…'
The electric emeralds of Tohru's eyes turned a frightening crimson color, her fangs grew even longer and more lethal, and her claws sharpened. She snarled and stood up straight and tall. "Mmm…I'm parched."
Haseo backed away from Ako to stand next to Rin. Both watched in shock. "T-Tohru?" Ako called quietly. "Are you okay?" Ako gasped as Tohru's gaze met with her friend's.
"What did you do?" Rin asked Haseo furiously.
"N-nothing! I didn't know she hadn't been feeding!" They watched tentatively as Tohru licked Ako's bleeding arm. Her eyes closed in satisfaction as the red liquid slowly coasted down her throat. "What do we do?"
"I'm leaving. It's better this way, now that I don't have to deal with Ako's body." Rin glanced back and in her dark eyes there was a sign of fear and dread. She then darted off and out of sight. Haseo stood there, mesmerized by Tohru.
Ako tried to struggle against Tohru and the binds but to no avail. "Haseo please! Help me-" she was interrupted by Tohru's soft laugh.
"It's funny how you want his help. Everything he's done to you." Tohru watched Haseo's nervous form intently. Suddenly Haseo grabbed his arm in pain and blood stained his shirt. And then another yowl of pain escaped his lips as yet another cut appeared on his body.
"Stop it Tohru!" Ako squeezed out of her mouth but started to cough and gag. Blood bubbled over her lips and she started to shake ferociously. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head and Tohru stared at her seizing body.
"T-Tohru please…call for help. Ako will die look at her!" Haseo pleaded as Tohru slowly stalked over to him. "No…I'm sorry about all this. But you shouldn't be worrying about me it's Ako…" Tohru licked her lips and placed her hands on Haseo's shoulders.
"I want you- to say sorry." His heart was beating out of his chest. Beads of sewat lined his forehead.
"Im sorry! Im so sorry. I wish I could take it all back I really do! Please don't kill me!" Tears fell from Haseo's eyes. Haseo was abruptly overwhelmed by pleasure and his could hear a familiar sound. His eyes were getting hazy and couldn't remember what he was doing. Haseo glanced down and noticed he was holding Tohru's small frame as she sucked on his neck… "Wait! No I apologized!" he suddenly remembered but he was too weak to pull her off.
Tohru moaned as she continued to drink from his body. It replenished her and tasted so good. She couldn't stop…not that she wanted to. Once the last drop made it to her tongue Tohru bit down on Haseo's sore neck and ripped his throat open. No blood was left to drip from the gaping wound. Tohru wiped her mouth with her sleeve and stood.
Ako was unconscious but breathing. Tohru noticed that the cut Haseo had made in her friend's arm was still trickling blood and Tohru's stomach clenched and growled.
'you want more! More more! Drink more Tohru! Drink until you are completely filled!' The voice in her head came again and she did as her mind wanted. She slowly walked over to Ako's unconscious body. Gently she closed up the slice in her arm and pushed Ako's limp head so that it lolled to the side.
Tohru's heart beat raced as she smelt the blood through Ako's skin. Her fangs pricked the soft skin and blood poled into her mouth. She flinched at the sound of feet running down the basement stairs. Immediately her fierce eyes met with Haru's. Then Kyo and Yuki followed.
"Tohru get away from Ako." Kyo said with cautiousness in his voice. Yuki just stared blankly at Tohru. Her fangs were much longer than normal and her eyes were scary. They seemed to pierce right through the boys.
"Yuki-kun. Back already?" Tohru asked as if she wasn't holding her best friend's lifeless body.
"Uh…yeah. The trip was cut a little short since I heard you all were in a bind." Yuki glanced at Haseo's bloody corpse. "You've been busy."
"I just got a little hungry. And you should've seen what Haseo and Rin-san were doing to Ako!" a small smile splayed on Tohru's red lips.
"Just get off Ako for now and then we'll talk about it." Yuki placed a hand on Haru's trembling shoulder.
"Kyo-kun…" Tohru's voice seduced the orange head. Yuki and Haru glanced at Kyo who now turned into his vampire form and was walking towards Tohru. "Come to me."
"Kyo!" Yuki reached for his cousin. Kyo retaliated by swinging his arm at Yuki and succeeded in scratching his cheek.
"Come to me Kyo-kun." Tohru voice echoed and Kyo was now more intent on getting to her. Yuki proceeded to stop his foolish cousin. Kyo started to attack and soon a brawl formed. Yuki dodged and dodged then was punched and kicked. Another dodge and another kick. Kyo was unbelievably fast and Yuki couldn't get a hit on him.
Haru stood there trying to relax himself as he watched Tohru and his girlfriend intently. Tohru seemed distracted by the fight. Haru started towards the girls and Tohru looked his way she smiled and suddenly Kyo's foot connected with Haru's head.
"Haru she can control him by mind speaking!" Yuki yelled to his cousin as he caught his breath.
"That's new." Haru stated as he let his claws grow. As he fought with Kyo his eyes stared blankly and he focused on maintaining himself.
"Tohru stop this! Someone is going to get hurt!" Yuki started to walk over to Tohru and then Kyo jumped in the way. "Ugh! You idiot! You're just going to let her use you like a doll?!" Yuki went to punch but Kyo dodged it and he stumbled. Kyo grabbed Yuki by the back of his shirt and flung him so that Yuki flew and landed into a wall.
"Yuki you okay?" haru called and Yuki waved his hand slightly and groaned.
"I expected you to be more of a threat Yuki-kun." Tohru smiled and played with Ako's hair. Haru growled and ran for Kyo who just dodged his cousin. "Kyo-kun, if you hurry I'll share her with you."
Kyo smirked as Haru ran for him. "You're weak!" Kyo's foot smashed into Haru's gut, making him spit up blood and fall to the ground clenching his stomach. Kyo smiled to Tohru and she beamed back. Suddenly Kyo was flying through the air and landed into some boxes. Yuki was now hunched by Haru.
"Haru-you okay?" Yuki asked concerned. Haru shoved his worried cousin off of him and he stood up. His jet black wings exploded from his back and a dark smile splayed across his face. "Dammit, you're going to get everyone in here killed Haru!"
"this is the only way we can save Ako and Tohru." Black Haru cracked his knuckles menacingly.
"How?" Yuki asked as he dodged a kick from the retaliating Kyo.
"I don't give a shit if I hurt Tohru." at that Haru flapped his wings and a huge gust of wind flew at Tohru. She covered her eyes and before she could do anything he was in front of her. Haru grabbed her by her collar and pulled her away from Ako.
"Let. Me. Go." Tohru commanded as she scratched Haru in the eye. He dropped her to the ground as he held the bleeding eye.
"Dammit." Haru cursed.
"Haru!" Yuki yelled with concern. Kyo punched Yuki in the cheek and he fell to the ground.
"Pay attention to your own fight." haru demanded as he looked for Tohru. She was suddenly on his back. Her hand gripped his left wing and her feet were firmly pressed to his back.
"You're a nuisance." A horrific ripping sound echoed in the basement along with Haru's scream of agonizing pain. He collapsed to the floor as blood poured from the gaping hole in his back. Tohru threw the black wing aside and crouched in front of Haru. "I'll drink you dry first and then Ako."
"Tohru!" Ako screamed in horror as she looked at her friends. Tohru flinched and turned around.
"You woke up." Tohru stood and started to walk over to Ako but Haru grabbed her by her feet and pulled her. Her hands couldn't catch her fall and she landed on her face. A raging headache panged through her and blood stained her forehead. Yuki finally landed a good hit on Kyo and his orange haired cousin was thrown back into a wall and passed out there.
Haru was leaning over Tohru and he rolled her over to her back. "I'm sorry about that Tohru but-" she clawed at his face and his chest as she laid there paralyzed. Haru met Yuki's gaze and noticed a talisman that was put on Tohru's hand. "You work quickly Yuki."
Yuki smiled softly and pointed to Ako. Haru ran to her and untied her. She fell weakly into his blood soaked body. She cried in relief as he picked her up bridal style. She clung to Haru as best as she could. Ako's eyes widened at Tohru's thrashing body.
"Get this off of me!" Tohru yelled furiously.
"She hasn't woken up from the berserk." Yuki stated with sadness laced in his voice. "Let's get Ako to the hospital and I'll call for Hatori. Maybe he can help Tohru."
"Yuki I cant take her like this. I don't think I can retract my wing. It hurts too bad." Haru winced and Ako kissed his cheek.
"hm. Looks like I'll need more bandages." They all turned to see Hatori standing at the end of the stairs holding his usual suitcase filled with meds. Shigure stood next to him with a horrified look on his face.
"You guys sure know how to make a mess." Shigure stated. "They do the same thing to my poor house, there are tons of cracks and holes in every door! I just don't know what to do anymore." He sighed dejectedly.
"You could stop talking and get Kyo into the van." Hatori sighed and walked over to Tohru who was still thrashing and snarling. Yuki helped Haru and Ako into the big SUV along with Kyo. It had been almost thirty minutes before Tohru had settled down and she was safe enough to also be put in the car.
"Is she going to be okay?" Yuki asked as he looked at Tohru. She was breathing heavily and her green eyes stared out into space angrily. Hatori had wrapped some type of rope around her so she was bound and it seemed to weaken her. "I want the old Tohru back."
"She'll be back to her old goofy self in no time." Hatori answered nonchalantly in his monotone voice. "I'll pump her with blood until her subconscious is finally satisfied and give her a shot so that this wont end up happening again."
"Thank you Hatori." Yuki brushed Tohru's bangs out of her face with his hand and her eyes widened. Yuki bent down and softly kissed her red stained lips. "I'll be waiting for you when you get back." he shut the door to the SUV and they drove off. Kyo was okay enough to walk and Yuki was too.
"I cant believe that happened." Kyo rubbed the back of his neck. It was sore from the impact and his head was killing him from the mind control.
"it was Akito and Rin's plan." Yuki started as they walked down the road.
"what do you mean?" Kyo asked.
"When me and Akito arrived at the bath house he told me all about how he could tell Tohru was inching closer and closer to losing control. And that Rin was jealous of Ako. Their plan was to take me out of reach because I would interfere for sure. They kidnapped Ako to hurt her so Rin might get back at Haru."
"what do you mean get back at Haru. She left him." Kyo interjected.
"yeah I know but she expected Haru to come crawling back to her. Anyway, after he told me I punched him." Yuki stated matter of factly.
"You punched Akito?!" Kyo asked incredulously.
"Yeah and then I left to came here. That's when I got your text message." They arrived at their house twenty minutes later. "I'm really tired. Night Kyo." Yuki went to his room and Kyo did the same.
One week later…
A warm breeze lightly played with Ako's and Tohru's hair as they sat in the grass only a few feet from the shore of the lake's beach, laughing and talking. Ako had fully healed except for the puncture marks in her neck which were covered by a tan band-aid. Tohru had a dark bruise on her forehead and doesn't remember most of that night that happened almost a week ago. But she's been able to drink blood like it was water.
It was summer vacation and they all were staying a few weeks at the Sohma spring break vacation house. Haru was swimming with Kyo and Yuki was reading a book down by the shore.
"Tohru!" Ako beamed a smile and pointed to her friends left hand. "Why didn't you tell me missy?!" Tohru blushed and lifted her left hand so they could admire the little diamond that sat comfortably on Tohru's finger.
"He only just asked me last night…and I wanted to surprise you." Ako hugged her and they laughed. "We should get married on the same day, right here in the field in front of the lake!"
Ako gasped, "yes! That would be so much fun with all the decorations and we could wear matching dresses, and get a piñata, and oh have a bachelor party!"
"Okay I think you're getting a little too carried away." Yuki smiled sweetly and sat next to Tohru. Putting his arm around her and snuggling her close to him. Their eyes met and locked as she smiled that sweet smile at him before their lips met.
"aw…now I want a kiss. HARU!" Ako trotted down to the beach and joined them in the water.
"We're finally alone." Yuki whispered as he lightly nibbled her ear. She laughed and blushed then laid down on the ground. Yuki joined her.
"You should consummate your love for me now that im all better." Tohru smiled shyly and tangled her fingers in Yuki's silver tendrils. He laughed and kissed her forhead.
"im going to make you wait till our wedding night." he teased. Tohru's eyes widened and she shot up.
"No way! That's so far away from now!" Tohru was sincerely shocked. Yuki laughed again and embraced her tiny frame. She smiled and held him back. "If it's you im waiting for…I can wait for forever." They kissed once, twice, and then passionately. Yuki laid her down on the grass before making love to his new life mate.
End.
