She then entered Ciel's office and told him how it had gone. "You're sure they're dead?" he asked.
"Yes, the Shinigamis killed two with their scythes and I ripped out the leader's heart," Fangurl informed.
"Do you suppose you're reaper friend was the only one they attacked in the Shinigami Realm?" Ciel wondered.
"I doubt it highly; I think that many beings were attacked by these bastards and killed when the fun was over for them. Alan would've been dead if had it not been for his friends," Fangurl said.
"But you also helped Fangurl. William informed me that if you hadn't taken care of him especially that first night, then he probably wouldn't have woken up," Ciel reminded.
"I just look after my friends and make sure no one hurts them," the girl replied. "I'm just glad Alan has the feeling that he's safe now."
"How much longer do you plan on helping him heal?" Ciel questioned.
"As long as he needs," Fangurl stated.
"Fangurl, you do realize Alan has to leave sometime and return to the Shinigami Realm," Ciel assumed.
"Yes, I understand that, but until I feel like he can stay by himself without needing anyone, then I'll let him return, but he's still very clingy and needing of me," Fangurl explained.
"Very well, but once he heals, he needs to leave. He belongs in the Shinigami Realm just like we belong in the Human Realm," Ciel proclaimed.
"Ciel, I also need to add that Alan, kind of has fallen in love with me," she notified slowly.
The boy looked at her for a few moments. "Fangurl, you know that I already have a strict rule about there being Shinigamis in this Manor. Now under no circumstances are you two allowed to have a private life together under this roof," he declared. "If you want to live with him in the Shinigami Realm then by all means go, but until then, you two are not to have a relationship."
Fangurl nodded before turning and leaving his office and returning to her room. Alan was still asleep under the blanket, but Fangurl noticed he was trembling in his sleep and could see his eyes dart under his lids. She quickly guessed Alan was having a nightmare, and her hypothesis was proven correct when she heard him call out "No, don't hurt her, please . . . no don't take Fangurl . . . no please . . ."
The girl rushed over to the sleeping brunette and shook him gently. Alan awoke and wrapped his arms around the girl as she lay down beside him. As he began to weep, Fangurl stroked his hair and shushed him quietly before whispering "It's okay Alan, I'm here. They won't hurt either of us."
Fangurl leaned back as she sat up a little. Alan looked at her and began to gently kiss her lips again. "Don't ever leave me Fangurl, please. I couldn't bear the thought of any demons hurting you," Alan pleaded.
She hugged him tightly to her before whispering "I will never leave you Alan." As he tucked his face in her neck, Fangurl muttered to herself "No matter how much Ciel wants to, he won't take you away from me."
"You promise?" Alan whispered. Fangurl kissed his head before nodding.
"He can try, but I will do everything I can to keep you safe and here the longest," she replied.
