To the guest review, my story is written in DOY calendar format. It is confusing but I prefer it that way

I've stopped and finished my other ongoing stories for now so I can finish this. SLS will... WILL be finished before new years. Even if it kills me. :|

Thank you naigi02, GreyWolfen, and guest reviewer for reviewing.

Night Nineteen - 052 / 053

Tuesday / Wednesday

Wednesday-

Kaoru didn't say anything. Neither did Otoya who also sat at the Kurusu's kitchen table. If Kaoru's fierce blue eyes could burn holes into the table he would probably be half way to America by now. He had known that the day before Syo wouldn't be coming home. He knew it, yet... he chose to believe in his brother.

"They've kidnapped him." Kaoru spat bitterly. "We have to get him back."

"Syo..." Otoya mumbled. "I don't... you know..."

Kaoru looked up sharply. His eyes glaring. "What? You think Syo left? That's impossible, they manipulated him."

"Kaoru..." Otoya said quietly. "If I had a chance to leave with them I would. If Toki-"

"You know one?" Kaoru interrupted. Hands slamming on the table as he stood. "Can you find out about Syo?"

"I-I'm not sure..."

"When are you seeing her next?"

"Him." Otoya corrected. "And I don't know. If Reiji's friend comes over tonight I might see him. But maybe you're wrong. He could be over at someone's house just playing with you. And Tokiya and his friends aren't bad people. You should give them a chance."

'People...' Kaoru thought. "Otoya you don't understand." He let himself slid down into the chair. He covered his face with his hands, hoping his friend wouldn't see he was only faking the sadness as he croaked out. "It would be like if Reiji disappeared on you and never came back. You don't know what it's like to not know if he's dead or alive."

Otoya, as gullible as he was instantly felt bad for the younger twin. His stood and placed both hands on Kaoru's shoulders. "I'll ask if Tokiya has seen him, okay? But I can't promise you anything."


Otoya sighed as he walked home. He felt bad for Kaoru but the younger blonde was acting insane, blaming the people who were just passing by for Syo's disappearance. Even if they were to blame, which Otoya didn't think they were, then they wouldn't get far. Eventually Syo would get sick and they wouldn't know what to do.

The redhead kicked up snow as he walked down the road. "Syo-chan where did you go?"

"Otoya?" A pat on his shoulder made him jump. His head whipped around to see the startled, but still smiling, face of his older brother.

"Mou! Don't sneak up on me." The redhead huffed in annoyance. He snuggled in deeper into his coat as his breath came out in steamy puffs.

"Sorry." Reiji smiled. "I just wanted to tell you that Tokiya and Ranmaru are coming over tonight. You don't mind right?"

"Of course not." Otoya closed his eyes, knowing the road well enough that he could pout like this often.

"Good." The brunette gulped. "Cause I can already see then waiting."

Otoya's eyes snapped open. Sure enough, two figures stood outside e door to their home. The youngest of the household sighed again. It was definitely gong to be a long night.


"Nastuki." Kaoru called. He leaned against the side of his house just outside of his open window, which he had climbed out of. There was no way his mother would let him out so late, especially with Syo missing. His eyes closed to the night, relying solely on his hearing to tell him that the vampire was there. "I know you're here."

"Kaoru-kun." He heard the vampire's voice coming from the trees. He could hear the snow crunch under the plain, worn, basketball shoes he wore. The taller blonde walked out into the dim moon light, of the crescent moon. His green eyes looked at the ground and his right hand held his left arm at the elbow, making his seem smaller and more childish than he was.

"I missed you."

Nastuki was taken aback. He was sure that the first words out of the younger teens mouth would be threat to return his brother or questions of his safety. "Did you?"

"Why would I lie?" Kaoru opened his eyes. "What would I gain from that?"

Natsuki didn't let his eyes meet the others. He rubbed his arm, almost as if he was cold. After all, while Kaoru was bundled up in layers of coats and clothes, Natsuki only wore a plain long sleeved shirt.

"Natsuki," Kaoru spoke not waiting for an answer to his previous question. "I'm cold, would you like to come in?"

At the slightest nod of the curly blonde, the youngest Kurusu began to climb in through his window. Natsuki followed suit. He closed the glass as he entered as Kaoru started taking off his coats.

"Are you hungry?" The younger of the two asked with a seductive smile.

Natsuki didn't move. He didn't breath, blink, or even think. "No."

Kaoru didn't say anything after that. He moved across the floor, closing the small distance between them. His arms opened as he embraced the vampire. "It's okay. It doesn't hurt."

Nastuki's eyes widened before closing. He understood what Ai liked about being around Syo. This warmth... It was irreplaceable. He hadn't felt this... this alive in years. It was so perfect.

I caught you.


Tuesday-

Syo didn't walk far from the door of his house, no, of the Kurusu house before he say Ai. The blue haired vampire laying in the snow across the snow covered dirt road. At first he appeared to be watching the sunset but he turned on his right side at the blonde's approach. His hair on the left curled up framing his face. Snow lightly trickled down as he reached a hand out for Syo to help him up.

"Are you sure this is what you want."

"Yeah..." Syo stuck out a gloved hand, squatting down next to him.

Ai took it and sighed. "But.."

"Kaoru will move on. It's probably for the best."

"How can you know that?"

"I don't."

"The why would you-"

Syo interrupted forming Ai up. "Because I know my brother. He may not be okay today or tomorrow or even in a week. But one day, he'll be fine."

Ai looked up at those amazing blue eyes. They burned with a certain optimism. "Okay."
