Let me start out this chapter with a warning. If you don't know what I'm warning you about, then someone hasn't been paying attention to the AN/s. I had to call in for back-up on this one, meaning that I seriously needed help when writing this. My co-author didn't actually write, but fuck me was he helpful. Thanks asshole who I know is reading this.

You're really insulting the guy who helped you?

He trolled me for over an hour once... He'll forever be an asshole in my eyes.

blahblahblech: I... Don't know where the vampire and werewolf thing came into— Wait, did you just compared this to fucking Twilight?!

Bwahahahahaha!

Eh, I'd still do him.

Stop saying that!

Pissing you off is so much fun~

DarkRai99: Damn right you're rooting for me! And if you're not... Go fuck yourselves!

... How do I do that?

*slams face into wall*

clevernameeh: Oh, I'll go after him... he he. Wait, who's Ryoji?

He he, wouldn't want to ruin the surprise.

Nightlyy: He was so~ hot!

... Are you becoming a fan girl or something?

You made a rape scene once, you lost your right to judge me.

Okay, yeah, that's fair.

Zia Jordan: Nope. I don't know where anyone matching that description would be.

My hair is white, so...

You're not even tall! You're like... 5'7 which is below average in america and extremely average in Japan.

... Fuck!

Ooh, what am?!

5'3. Still below America's average and pretty average in Japan.

Yay! He was meant for me!

... You need a doctor.

Raze Olympus: Finally! Someone is on my side!

Guest: And someone is on MY side!

Grr...


I am Grimmy from the future! I have come to tell you that this scene has been rewritten and posted on AO3! I will not be changing this chapter, but if you want to see an alternate way this could have gone (and in my opinion, better) then feel free to come on and read that.


School

"Yup, thought so..." Makoto thought out loud as he looked out his class room window. From above came several large, dark clouds looming over Iwatodai. Because of this, several students were now running home as fast as they could since school had closed earlier than usual.

Of course, things like rain meant nothing to Makoto. He could stand out there for hours and (aside from being soaked) nothing would really happen to him.

It was odd to still be in the building when almost no one else was in there. While they were annoying most of the time, the students that normally occupied this building always gave it a certain amount of life to it which was now completely gone.

The only sound that could be heard was breathing as the bluenette continued to look out the window, both his... "You shouldn't be here." ... and hers.

"Right back at ya." Kotone— who was standing by the door— shot back as she continued to gaze at the boy who had his back turned to her.

"I can't get sick when it starts to pour." Makoto retorted as he turned his head so that he could get a slight glimpse of her out of the corner of his eye. Pharos had told him to avoid contact with her, especially after yesterday, but something told him that Kotone cared little for what Pharos thought.

"Wait, you serious?" Kotone asked as she looked him up and down, but there wasn't even a single hint that he was joking. "Wow... Can we trade powers?"

"Don't see that happening..." The air suddenly began to feel colder, a clear indication that someone wasn't liking how this was going "... I know, I know." he whispered. He knew what he had to do, but she didn't deserve to have it given to her so harshly.

"You know why I'm here, right?" Kotone asked knowing full well that both of them knew her exact reason for approaching him after yesterday.

"Not here." Makoto said as he turned around, his body noticeably giving off a much less hostile aura than it usually did with everyone else. "It's going to start raining soon. You shouldn't be here when it does."

Kotone look disappointed that he was trying to put the conversation off, but then an idea came to her. "Alright, your place is closer than my dorm."

Damn... Makoto thought to himself at the suggestion. He was hoping to be able to put this off for a more suitable time, but he didn't have anything that'd give him an excuse to not bring her with him. If there is a god, he was certainly laughing.

Letting out a long, exasperated sigh, Makoto walked past her and was halfway through the door before suddenly pausing "... Don't fall behind."

Kotone gave a small smile before nodding and following him out of the empty class room and then the building. There was no better private place than home, so it was probably a better idea if she tried to settle everything with him there.


Home

The entire walk there was filled with an uncomfortable silence between the two. It seemed that when Makoto said that they'd talk about everything there, he meant it quite literally.

They had barely managed to make it to the apartment in time when it began to rain heavily as if all of nature's wrath was now coming down upon the city. It was a good thing that Kotone had chosen to follow Makoto, otherwise she probably would've gotten sick during the run home.

After she had walked in, Makoto shut the door behind him as he started taking quick, but deep breaths as he thought about what to do. He didn't have a choice, he had to end this now... Even if she ends up despising him, it was better to deal with extreme pain now than agony later.

"Looks like we'll be here for a while..." Kotone noted as she looked out the window which was almost impossible to see anything through "... You don't mind if I take off my shoes and everything, do you?"

"Whatever." Makoto continued to act dismissively as he tried to think of what to say. He knew the consequences that would occur if he did nothing, but... Everything in him told him to stop, the least of which being Minato.

True to her word, Kotone kicked off her loafers and discarded her blazer before leaving it on a seldom used coat hangar on the wall. After doing so, all she could do was continue to look at the bluenette who— even by his standards— was unusually quiet. More than that, he seemed like he actually wanted to say something.

"You never should've done that..." Makoto mumbled just barely loud enough for Kotone to hear and understand. There wasn't a need to ask, it was obvious what he was talking about "Of all the things, you never should've done that."

"You say that, but you're the one that kissed me back." Kotone replied as she took a small step forward, but that only seemed to irritate him more.

"Fucking quit it! I've had enough mind games!" Makoto yelled loud enough that he was certain that even people outside in the storm might even have been able to hear him.

Whatever it was that was driving Kotone, it didn't back down even then "Why are you even fighting this much?" she asked, even now she maintained a kind and gentle voice in contrast to his currently loud and harsh one.

"Kotone... Stop!" He demanded as the cold look in his eyes began to resurface and his body became much more tense and hostile as it suddenly felt several degrees lower. "If you don't... I will hurt you."

Kotone's eyes quickly changed from soft and warm to extremely sharp with a look of what could only be described as both a mixture of determination and stubbornness. "Prove it." she demanded.

Huh?! Makoto thought, but he didn't dare show it through his body language or any other means. What was she trying to do now?

Suddenly, Kotone slowly outstretched both of her arms as she took a step forward "If you're as horrible as you say you are, then hit me." She demanded as she took another step forward "Hit me and I'll leave you alone. I'll even run home through that typhoon if you want, but I'm not stopping otherwise."

True to her word, Kotone continued taking slow step forward towards the bluenette who could only sit still as he considered what to do.

Do it... A voice demanded easily sounding more demonic than anything even closely resembling a human. Despite the unfamiliarity with the voice, Makoto didn't have to think twice about who that voice belonged to.

Don't you dare! Minato warned as he prepared himself to take over. It was obvious that Kotone was dead-serious about this so Makoto doing the wrong thing could easily irreversibly screw things up.

"And this is for you, not him." Kotone said as she took another step forward, this was something for Makoto and Makoto alone, not Minato.

Fuck! Minato cursed as Makoto remained still. By now she'd recognized the signs that control was transitioning, so now he was completely reliant on Makoto to make the right decision.

I said: Do it! Pharos whispered at the back of Makoto's mind again. His voice was sounding more and more inhuman with every step she took and the coldness in the air was even beginning to affect Makoto now... No, it was focused on Makoto right now.

Don't!

DO IT!

Makoto, you know what you want!

Stop wasting time! A small slap is all it'll take! Now, HIT HER!

Eventually, Kotone finally stopped when she was finally face-to-face with Makoto who hadn't moved a muscle. Even though his body was still completely tense, he still couldn't forced himself to do anything to her.

Kotone gave another small, sweet smile directed at the boy in front of her. "See?" She asked "You're not as bad of a person as you think you are."

Before he could utter another word, Kotone suddenly latched onto his frame and held him tightly. Now that she had him in her grasp, she could feel him trembling within her arms.

Do I need to remind you why we're doing this?! Pharos continued to scream as Makoto's world began to warp around him again.

Kotone continued to hold him in her arms as his breathing and trembling suddenly quickened in pace as he squeezed his eyes shut. It looked like he had just been forced into a nightmare; the same nightmare he'd been forced to endure over and over.

But when you suffer from a nightmare, sometimes it is better to have someone wake you up.

With this in mind, Kotone tightened her grip on the boy as she began to whisper "I know you told me to never say it, but I don't care, I'm gonna say it. Minato..." Kotone stood on her toes as she placed her head besides his and whispered "... I love you."

Like smashing a mirror, the nightmare that Makoto had been forced to endure shattered as he heard those words even when forced to live through his worst memory all over again. He quickly blinked for a few seconds as if he was in complete disbelief what had just happened.

Slowly, Makoto raised his arms and returned the redhead's tight embrace, though the room suddenly felt much colder to both of them as Pharos' agitation grew.

Kotone shuddered for a moment in response to the suddenly cold air, but only for a moment as she continued to keep her arms around the bluenette. "Do you want me to go?"

Makoto slowly shook his head, though his head was positioned in such a way that Kotone could only feel his head shaking on her shoulder rather than actually seeing him.

"... I don't want to go either." She said before slightly pulling back so they were eye to eye with each other again. "Can I stay?"

Still unable to say a word, Makoto nodded again as he felt his skin beginning to sting from the cold air around him.

Fighting the urge to shiver, Kotone stood on her toes again and the two closed their eyes as they kissed each other again.

Much like the day before, Makoto wrapped his arms around her waist as she interlocked her fingers behind his head. When the two began to separate again, Kotone decided to try something new and gently nipped his lip.

"Get out!" This time, it was Kotone who heard the scream as she nearly jolted in surprise the moment it happened. If Pharos couldn't reach Makoto, then maybe it would work if he tried to scare her off. He didn't know how,, why, or when he became strong enough to speak to anyone other than Minato/Makoto, but he didn't care at this point.

Suddenly, the freezing room seemingly began to get darker and darker by the second as the evening progressed. Either the clouds outside where beginning to block the sun, they'd been here a lot longer than they had originally had thought. If they still weren't holding onto each others' frames, they might have had difficulty finding one another.

Kotone was about to say something, but she then began to to feel what could only be described as dull pressure beginning to settle on her body. She couldn't tell what it was nor where it was coming from, but she continued to get more and more unease by every passing moment.

"GET OUT!"

Almost as if sensing her stress, Makoto placed a hand on her face and began to gently caress her cheek "You okay?" he asked, genuine concern prevalent in his voice.

"Y-Yeah..." Kotone stuttered before easing up slightly and nuzzling against his warm hand that contrasted with the cold room "This is our night, right?"

"Mm-hmm..." Makoto agreed before leaning in before stopping just before their lips could touch "... Nothing's going to ruin it, got it?"

"Mm-hmm..." Kotone agreed as their lips met and she wrapped her arms around his neck again. As their tongues began to clash again, Kotone slowly began to walk backwards with Makoto following to avoid breaking the kiss as she put her trust in the boy in front of her to safely guide her through the darkness behind her.

They continued moving together with Kotone tossing her barrettes and letting her hair fall past her shoulders until she felt the back of her legs hit the edge of the exact thing that she was trying to reach.

Suddenly, she felt Makoto's hands move from her waist to her chest before she was pushed onto the soft surface of his bed which caused her to giggle.

Stop! Pharos continued to scream into Makoto's head in a voice that resembled a human's in words only as his voice had completely changed now.

Come on, this is what both of us want, ain't it? Minato whispered into his other self's ear.

Hurt her! Kill her! I don't care which, just stop! Pharos screamed again as the boy closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

For the first time in ten long and painful years, the bluenette felt relief wash over him and felt almost as if a large weight had been lifted of his shoulder, all happening after he formed a small and gentle smile.

Even through the almost unnatural darkness, Kotone could still make out the appearance of the boy's face whose featured looked... off. He looked both familiar, yet different. He didn't fit neither Makoto nor Minato exactly, but rather look like some sort of mixture of the two. It was both foreign and familiar at the same time.

Despite this, Kotone undid the buttons on her blouse which exposed some of her skin and the red bra she'd been wearing today "Well? Gonna join me?" She teased. Just like she had said, this was their night and she wasn't going to let anything ruin it.

A small chuckled escaped the boy's lips as he shrugged off his school jacket and began to make his way onto the bed.

The second he crawled onto the bed, she wrapped her arms around his neck and he wrapped his around her waist as their lips met again and they resumed their tongues clashed much like they did during the night that almost led to this very thing.

Cold air continued to fill the room which caused the lovers to cling onto each other's frames as a means to receive warmth from one another. The boy could hear Pharos' protest for him to stop, but he was far beyond caring at this point.

Kotone kept her eyes closed as she made it a personal goal to do nothing but enjoy this moment with him. She fought hard in their duel as her tongue slid in and out, thus continuing the stalemate from last time. Wanting this moment to be even more special, she pulled him closer in an effort to deepen the kiss as much as she could.

In response, the bluenette brought one of his hands from her waist to the back of her head. Also wanting this to be an even more special moment, he brought the hand that was still around her waist and brought it to her chest, and all he had to do was give it a soft squeeze to make her gasp in surprise.

Taking full advantage of the opportunity, the boy forced her tongue back into her mouth and allowing his own to explore unabated. She tried to fight back at first, but eventually the redhead gave in and gave him as much access as he wanted.

Both of the lovers felt as if they had finally reached eternal bliss. The room was freezing and dark, but that only made is so that the only warmth they had and the only thing they could see was nothing but each other.

Kotone was about to complain when he pulled back from the kiss, but these complaints were quickly replaced by moans as he began to kiss her cheek, her neck, and working his way down until he reached her sweet spot where he placed his lips and began sucking on it.

Rather than fight it, Kotone simply allowed herself to enjoy it as she shrugged off her school shirt and laced her fingers behind the boy's head. Like she had done the previous night, he made sure to remember to occasionally lick the spot which caused her shiver on contact; she was almost certain that this was done more to get back at her rather than to please her, but it succeeded either way. Before long, the boy pulled back and there was a prominent red mark just like before.

"Hehe, my turn~!" She sang as she rewarded her lover's efforts. The redhead reached out and began to undo the buttons of his shirt as she began to devour his mouth again. Before he had time to react, she moved from his lips to his jawline, and then targeted the spot where she knew that he was sensitive.

"G-Goddammit, Kotone..." He breathed as she continued to suck on and even gently nip his skin while her hands explored his abdomen; despite appearing thin in clothing, he still had enough lean muscle for her feel. As he shivered from her licking her love bite, she dragged her hands from his abdomen to his shoulders before forcing him to discard his own school shirt.

After a few more minutes, she pulled back and displayed another love mark that was even more pronounced than the one from before. The boy let out a chuckle, "Good, now the whole world can know you own my ass."

Kotone giggled some more as she leaned back and supported herself with her hands as the bluenette loomed above her and left another peck on her lips before snaking his arms under hers.

"May I?" He asked, trying to avoid this ending like last time.

Finding his sudden courtesy somewhat adorable, Kotone nodded, "Nothing's stopping us... Not this time."

Now having permission, he undid the clasp behind her and let the straps fall from her shoulders before she tossed the garment somewhere on the floor.

"Leave him be!" Pharos whispered into Kotone's ear as the temperature took another dive. It was clear that he was doing whatever he thought it'd take to stop them however he can.

Feeling her heart begin to sink as she tried looking around, but everything was shrouded in darkness and the only thing she could hear were what could only be described as demonic whispers.

At that moment, the dull pressure she had felt moments ago began to set back in and cause her to nearly begin to completely panic.

She then felt someone cup her shoulders. She was about to completely lose it then and there, but then through the darkness she was able to see that it was no one other than him. Even through the darkness, there was concern in his eyes, but there was also a burning desire. Not just one of lust, but a desire to keep her happy and ensure that this night remained as special to her as it was to him.

Hoping to help ease her unsettled nerves, he leaned in and pecked her on the lips again before gently caresses her cheeks, shoulders, chest, and progressively making his way downward before stopping at her waist.

Unwilling to let anything stop them again, she nodded "I-It's okay..." she gave her permission, but when he began to move she screamed "Wait!"

Just had he'd been asked, the bluenette stopped and looked at her through the darkness again "I wanna know... Who are you?"

Another chuckled escaped the boy's lips "Me? Just one big mess."

"One big mess?" Kotone asked, dragging out the first word "Sure? Nothing else?" she asked suspiciously

"Nope..." He leaned in again "Just one big mess this time."

"Can I still call you Minato, though?"

"You can only call me Minato." Minato answered with a smile on his face and he pecked her lips one more time before the redhead returned his smile and gave him another nod in confirmation.

Undoing the buttons of both her skirt and the shorts beneath it before slowly taking both of them and the undergarments beneath off and exposing her bare sex.

Kotone's cheeks flared a bright pink in embarrassment as she lied in the in bed with nothing on "H-Hurry up... It's freezing in here!" she demanded, wanting both something warm near her and to get to the main event.

Minato snickered, but seeing how serious she was he wasted no time shedding what little clothing remained.

Minato leaned in and kissed her again, but this time gently settling her down on the bed as he once again loomed over her.

Stop! STOP! STOP! WHY WON'T YOU LISTEN TO ME?! Pharos screamed loudly into the boy's ear as the boy's world began to shift around him again.

Minato bit his lips and clutched the sheets next to him as he did whatever it took to block the memories from his tragic past and only focus on the person in front of him.

Kotone began to feel the pressure return as the cold had reached the point where any colder would likely begin to feel like torture.

She reached up and began to caress his cheek both as a means of comfort and as a way to hopefully give him some form of heat. This seemed to work as Minato stopped biting his lip and began to do the same with her.

"GET OUT!" Pharos screamed as loud as possible which actually made Kotone shake in shock as she quickly turned her head to look around, but she only saw more blackness and heard the demonic whispers.

"Hey, hey..." Minato called out to her and gently locked fingers with her hand hoping to snap her out of whatever mind games Pharos was trying to play with her. Kotone blinked rapidly for a few moments before looking back at him, but there was still visible unease on her face.

"Our night?" Minato asked as he gave her hand a soft squeeze

Upon hearing those words, Kotone gave a weak smile in return "Our night.." she said with a nod.

Minato slowly began to push inside her which caused her to jerk against him while tightly squeezing both his hand and her eyes shut as she felt the pain of her inner muscles beginning to adjust to him.

Kotone bit her lip and used her free hand to wrap it around his frame before pulling him towards her like he was going to be suddenly taken away. She could feel his body shivering in response to the sudden cold air just like she was.

Arching her back and still cringing in pain, Kotone slowly opened her eyes to meet his "I-I'm fine..." she said as she tried desperately to stop her shaking legs, because there was no way they were going to stop now that they'd come this far "You can start now."

"..." Minato said nothing, but eyed her suspiciously as he noticed the pain still evident on both her face and in her posture.

"Whatever you do, do not stop." She ordered

"Get out!"

Stop doing this! Listen to me, damn you!

"No matter what, okay?" She asked, smiling despite the pain as a tear began to escape her eye.

Minato wiped the tear away with his thumb as he pushed all the curses and orders to harm and kill her from Pharos to the back of his mind.

"I won't..." he promised her. They'd come this far, it was time to finish it.

Minato left another long kiss on her lips, but then began to move slowly move which caused her to let out a hiss in pain as she continued to adjust. Keeping his movements as slow as he could in the meantime, Minato continued to leave several kisses on on her neck and lips.

Kotone moved her head to the side as she focused on the pleasant sensations on her skin and pushed whatever whispers she was hearing to the back of her mind. This was what she wanted; A moment to share with the boy she had fallen for and A moment where he finally didn't seem to be at war with himself. Kotone couldn't help but moan as he began to kiss her sweet spot and the pain was finally beginning to fade away.

AAAAAHHHHHHH! A loud scream could be heard, sounding like a mix between a demon and child throwing a tantrum after not getting what he wanted. Still, even this was ignored by the two lovers as they focused on the only thing that currently matter to either of them— each other.

Kotone began to moan and scream in bliss as the pain she felt had finally been replaced with what could only be described as burning pleasure now that she had finally adjusted to him. Minato let out a groan as he felt her inner muscles tightening which was a sign that she was enjoying the experience as well.

"K-Keep going..." Kotone bit her lip as she struggled to utter a single sentence. She dug her nails into his back as she pulled him closer so that their bodies were pressing against each other and sharing any heat that the other may have. "M-More..."

"Fuck..." Minato cursed as he tightened the grip of their still joined hands.

Minato began to turn it up a notch as he increased his pace just enough that it caused Kotone to gasp loudly in surprise only to immediately be replace with high pitch screams of pleasure as she felt an intense sensation beginning to build in the pit of her stomach seemingly waiting to burst. With every scream that escaped her vocal cords, he increased his pace more and more as he went deeper.

Kotone felt like she was in heaven. Now only because of what she felt physically, but also because after weeks of waiting and thinking to herself it was all clear. This was the boy she loved, and this was their moment. She loved him, and now, she knew for certain that he loved her. Feeling the knot continue to form, Kotone cried out louder than she even thought she could as she continued to kiss him, push her tongue in, and whisper encouragements about how good it all felt.

When he first saw her on the train months ago, he would have never thought that he would be sharing a moment like this with her. He wanted to make her happy, he wanted to see her smile, he wanted to please in a way that only he was allowed to. Every time she cried out in bliss, he desperately wanted her feel more. All he wanted was for her to experience nothing but pleasure tonight.

Minato kept moving, but was now beginning to lose control of his breathing as he felt the pressure that had been building inside beginning to reach its breaking point. "K-Kotone... I'm..." Kotone had dug her nails even deeper, but his perception of pain had long since been blocked out by now. The room was freezing cold, but their bodies had built up and wanted— No, needed release.

"I-It's okay..." Kotone dug her nails to the point that it almost drew blood as she used her arms and legs to draw him even deeper. The spasms of her inner muscles had Minato just a step away, and she was ready too. This was all she wanted... An unforgettable night with the one she loved. It didn't matter that the room was freezing or that the room was dark; All that matter was that all she could see and feel was him. "Just... let go."

Straining his now exhausted body, Minato forced himself to move as fast as he could and Kotone grabbed his head an pulled it closer to her and placed her lips on his until it all finally came to an end.

One last thrust and both called out each other names in pleasure as both reached their climax. Both of their bodies felt like they had been set ablaze despite the the chill still remaining in the air. For the first time in both of their lives, they had finally gotten something that their hearts desired. Kotone continued to kiss him, this time slowly, moaning into his mouth one last time as she felt his warmth settle inside. Minato tried to regain control of his breathing as he kissed her back and their tongues slowly clashed with one another.

Still panting in exhaustion, Minato broke the kiss and rolled onto his back before Kotone rested her head on his shoulder (after covering themselves in blanket of course). Both of them were panting heavily with their mouths wide open as they struggled to regain their breath. They weren't even sure what time it was right now, but both of them were left completely exhausted.

The redhead smiled as the numbness she felt throughout most of her body began to subside. She had spent countless days being conflicted about what she felt for this boy, and it finally led to this. Part of her was unable to believe she had just done this when not to long ago, she had stopped the both of them from doing this very thing out of fear that she was simply using him. Now, her she was, cuddling against the same boy after both of them had made love for the first time in their lives.

Kotone laughed as she wrapped her arms around him again, "That settles it. You're all mine! No one else is allowed to have you!"

"Pft..." Minato couldn't help but snicker. "Whatever you say, Kotone... Whatever you say..." Completely exhausted, Minato closed his eyes and began to drift off into a deep sleep.

Kotone couldn't help but smile at the sight of boy she loved finally sleeping without showing any signs of having any nightmares. But what she felt and heard though...

Kotone looked around, but the room had gone back to normal and one could still hear the storm raging outside. Come to think of it, didn't Makoto mention having a friend before? Was that... thing actually his friend?

She may not have known what, but she knew with certainty that there was something very bad bound to Minato/Makoto.

Still, for now that can wait. Kotone rested her head on her sleeping lover before quickly joining him as she drifted off to sleep.


Done... Hope you're happy.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Mmm... So happy.

About what I expected.

Well... This was the event. Yes, the event. It is now time for me to decide this fic's fate... And now, I will tell you...

...

...

Ah, fuck it! I'll keep goin' for you guys. I'm in a much less shittier mood than I was before, and I just love y'all. Sorry to those who don't like lemons, but... Rated M for a reason. Not to mention, told ya this would happen. The rest of you, I hope you enjoyed it. Do give your opinions since lemons... are not my forte, though I know some really shitty ones.
