Hours pass, the guys from Earth had gone to sleep in the rooms that the count gave them. As was obvious, Nobita and Doraemon slept in the same room in a double bed, both were asleep until Nobita hears a voice in his head, which wakes him up.
("Could you invite me in? You know that a vampire can't enter a room without being invited.") Yes, it was Selene's voice.
Nobita sits up with bright charcoal-colored eyes surprised to hear her, but then smiles in a half-mocking tone ("It's your house. You can do it without problems.")
("I know.") Selene opens the door of the room a little, smiling at her friend who notices her ("And I know that you weren't that asleep. Do you fancy a walk?")
The silly boy takes the glasses from the nightstand and nods. He still had the takecopter with him, so he slowly leaves the room, closing the door quietly. The two guys take advantage of one of the large windows in the hallway, Selene opens it, unfolds her bat wings to go out there, Nobita also flies out using the takecopter.
Selene is now the one guiding her friend through the intense night sky, the stars and both moons illuminated the environment, the platinum girl took him to tour the sky and the outskirts of Kyuketsu that he didn't know, the dark night was only for the two of them on that walk.
They flew, laughed, even doing pirouettes that the vampire taught the human, they passed by a nearby mountain with a large waterfall, they saw the furry animals in the surroundings, native species of Amarant
As he showed her his nocturnal world, now she had the chance to do it. They wanted to do it now because tomorrow they were going to be busy with the rest, but that dark night was for both of them.
With a good walk, they return to the outside of the castle, where they sit on the part of the roof that was above Selene's room near her balcony. "Your planet is very different from mine, but it's impressive, it's always night here and it's more modern"
"You have the same impression that I felt with your world, Nobita. I'm very happy, I think I needed a walk, but I didn't want to do it alone. Thank you for accompanying me" The vampiress looks at the stars as does the clumsy boy "I don't know why we have this link, but it was thanks to that that we met, maybe we should have met because maybe we needed each other, who knows. But I was very happy that it happened."
The boy just smiles at his vampire friend "Me too, you really are a good friend, I liked spending time together living in the same house. We may say goodbye again, but there will be no limits if we want to see each other again, it wouldn't be so often but I can wait"
"I know. It excites me greatly" Selene smiles in a cute and mocking way as she used to do when she lived on Earth, so she decides to kneel near him as she did when she told the story of her planet
"Or maybe you want a change of life and I'll turn you into a vampire and live here in Amarant? I think a pair of fangs would suit you well and we wouldn't have to say goodbye. Like I said before, I could help you with that if you want."
As expected, the boy turns red in embarrassment, he hadn't done that for a while now. "B-b-but Selene, I...!"
The vampiress laughs, moving away from him a little. "Hehe! Don't worry, I was just joking, I just missed making you react like that."
"Uh... Oh... Okay, uh..." The boy shakes his head to calm down and remembers something. "By the way, what were you talking about with your father when we left you two alone on the balcony?"
Nobita's question makes the platinum girl smile as she puts a finger on her lips while winking at him "It's a family matter, you don't have to know"
The boy with glasses understands that, it seems that it was a very personal matter, so he preferred not to ask again, giving way to a slight yawn, the vampire gets up.
"Well, we should go in now, tomorrow we have to explore your city, we should take advantage of the fact that we will stay another day."
Selene nods "Of course, I'll gladly guide you. But first, we have one more thing to do"
The vampire goes down to the balcony, opens the glass doors of it and enters her room, to quickly bring something from there: A music player. Seeing it, Nobita just scratches his cheek somewhat embarrassed "I figured that. Still, I'm still a clumsy dancer"
But she didn't care about that, she wanted to spend time with her human friend, she missed him since they were forced apart. She placed the player on the roof, turned it on, playing slow music that she liked.
She took his friend by the hand and led him to the night sky, the boy couldn't help but be guided by those violet eyes that had caught his attention since that dream he had.
When Nobita realized they were already floating over the castle garden, the guards noticed the presence of both but preferred not to do anything, they didn't want to ruin the moment for them.
A gentle wind blew, making the girl's platinum hair flutter and the boy's black hair move a little. "That night on my birthday, after dancing, the memory of her hurting you comes back. I want to repeat it, but this time, let everything end well."
The young boy was startled with his eyes lit up. He didn't know if it was because of the effect of the two moons in the background. He was still surprised at how much she wanted to spend time with him, but it was because she really valued his friendship.
They met in a dream.
He sought her out because he wanted to find out why he was dreaming about her.
They met again in real life.
They became friends.
They shared everyday life on Earth, getting closer and strengthening their friendship.
They parted ways and that had left them feeling sad, even though one of them did not remember the other.
They met again at the most crucial moment.
They protected each other in danger.
And once again they were about to say goodbye, but this time it would be with a smile and a promise that despite everything remained present and will remain.
Nobita nods at the dance request, nodding without saying anything, while the music took over the scene, both of them began to make the same movements as at the vampire's birthday in the night sky.
"I'm sorry if I'm in pajamas, I'm not as presentable as that night" The clumsy boy smiles with embarrassment.
The vampire shakes her head smiling "Don't be ashamed, I'm also in pajamas, we're both not presentable, the important thing is the occasion. I see that you're already getting used to it."
"It's just that I have a good teacher" They both laugh as they continued dancing. Time seemed to act slower between two friends having a good time.
That dark night was just for the two of them
When the music stopped, they both stopped as well, another memory had been harvested that night, now on the planet Amarant. They both look at each other for a moment to return to the castle inside the castle through the same window they left through, she closed the window.
"Thank you for accompanying me and for granting me one more dance, I enjoyed it" The vampiress gives her friend a warm smile, ironic for a vampire.
"You're welcome Selene, I had fun too. See you tomorrow"
They both say goodbye after a busy day going to their rooms, it was a day that started sadly but ended in a peaceful way, it was a new beginning for Amarant and Selene.
The next clear night, the group from Earth took the day to go sightseeing in Kyuketsu, they were all fascinated by the Gothic-Victorian design of the houses even though they had very good magentun-based technology.
They spent the day having fun, even Zurie joined in to cheer him up, he needed it after the previous day was one of the most painful for him. Since there were blood-free menus, eating wasn't a problem for the earthlings, especially for Gian who wanted to try the Amaranthian seasoning.
Even Doraemon suggested the idea of implementing dorayakis in the planet's menus, which Zurie and Selene accepted and with the recipe, they would make it a reality, there was no doubt that the robot cat was happy.
Selene had paid Shizuka and Suneo so much for Amaranthian clothes to take them, since the cute dresses of colors beyond black and the elegant Amaranthian clothes caught the attention of both.
Nobita was stunned and surprised by everything he saw, there were even toys made with magentun that caught his attention.
So another day passed in Amarant, everyone happy and calm with a respite from everything that happened in the failed promotion ceremony, returning to the castle in the prelude to the dark night, spending time together and even having a sleepover which everyone enjoyed.
But, with the end of the day comes the beginning of another, the day that meant a farewell.
