~A Special Gift~

(Disclaimer! I don't own any of the characters!)


Yui was walking through the empty halls with her head dropped down. Yui felt really depressed, even though it was Christmas Eve. She had asked Shu what he wanted most for Christmas, but he wouldn't tell her.

"Earlier"

"I wonder where he could be hiding." Yui walked towards the door that led to the living room but stopped right in front of it. She slowly opened the door and carefully peaked in. she looked around until her eyes had stopped on the couch that was furthers away from the door. There he was lying, as usual. Yui stepped inside and closed the door behind her. She started walking slowly towards the couch, not to wake him up. When she was just a few inches away she stopped and looked down at him. Yui had always liked Shu's face when he was sleeping. It looked so… peaceful.

"Ano… Shu-san?" Yui reaches for Shu's shoulder and pokes it gently a few times. Shu groans sleepily and turns over.

"… Are you, awake?" Yui poked him softly on his shoulder again. This time he was quiet and didn't move.

"…" Yui sighted and was just about to turn around and leave when she got pulled back. She stumbled and fell on top of something… or rather someone.

"You're such a bother…" Yui looked up and met Shu's cold gaze. She realized how close they were so she immediately started blushing and broke their eye contact.

"So what did you want?" Shu asked flatly. Yui opened her mouth to answer his question but nothing came out. She cleared her throat and tried again.

"Well… I…" Yui mover her gaze to his eyes and continued.

"What… do you… I was just wondering… what you want for…Christmas…" Yui starred into his eyes and waited patiently for an answer.

"I don't care about your human traditions and celebrations, so leave me out of it." When Yui blinked she realized that she was now sitting by herself on the sofa. She dropped her head in disappointment and left the room.

"Present time"

Yui sighted and decided to head back to her room.

"It's no use forcing him to tell me what he wants. Maybe he just wants to be alone?"
When she was almost at her room, she passed a window and quickly glanced out. Yui stopped when she saw someone walking through the rose garden.

"Is that...?" She ran to her room and grabbed her boots, her pink warm jacket and her white earmuffs and quickly headed out the door and ran towards the rose garden.
When she made it to the snow covered rose garden there were no sign of a single soul. Yui walked through the garden and looked all around her.

"S-Shu –san!?" Yui called out to the vampire that she had seen for just a while ago but she received no answer. She continued walking and calling out to the blonde vampire.

"Shu –san! Where are you!?"

"So noisy…" Yui yelped when she heard the voice coming from behind. When she turned around she was looking at Shu. He was wearing a light blue jacket and a white scarf that was carelessly wrapped around his neck.
He was looking her straight in the eyes and they ended up gazing at each other for a good while before Shu spoke up.

"Am I that attractive that you can't even take your eyes of me?" he smirked and Yui hurried to break their eye contact by looking down at her feet.

"S-Sorry! I didn't mean to…" Yui was blushing like crazy and she could feel her cheeks get redder and redder by the second.

"W-well I'll be on my way. Excuse me!" Yui turned around and was just about to walk away when she felt a hand grabbing her and pulling her back into a warm embrace.

"S-Shu –san?"

"You were searching for me." Shu looked down at her and tilted his head slightly. He already knew why Yui was searching for him but he wanted her to say it.

"W-Well… I-I…" Shu sighted. She always stuttered when she was uncertain of something or if she was nervous.

"Just say it." He said, cutting her of from her stuttering.

"I-I just wanted to ask you what y-you want for C -Christmas." She was looking at him with an unsteady gaze. Shu started chuckling, which made Yui's cheeks grown redder that a tomato. Yui avoided his gaze by looking down on her feet again.
("I'm so stupid! Why would he care to answer?") Yui felt as her heart was going to fall apart when she was suddenly grabbed by her shoulders.
When she looked up, Shu's lips crashed onto hers and Yui's eyes flew wide open in surprise. Soon she melted into the kiss and kissed him back. After a while they had to stop, so that both of them could catch their breaths. Yui looked deep into Shu's deep blue eyes. He put his hand against Yui's cheek. Shu leaned to her ear and whispered.

"I don't wish for anything else than you, Yui." When Yui herd that she could feel tears of joy starting to well from her eyes.

"Shu!" Yui jumped into his arms and hugged him tightly.

"You really are a noisy one…" He chuckled and hugged her back.
