"Do you like bed-time, Tsukasa?"

It was weird at first, but it seems like everything is almost back to normal.

I closed my eyes, feeling warm lips against mine. Being with Hanako again was like a dream.

A good dream, a dream I never wanted to end. I was so scared he'd hate me for Kou trying to kill Tsukasa but: Hanako didn't blame me at all.

He said we'd never fight again.

And he meant it.

The next day at school, before I could even try to apologize for what Kou and Mitsuba did; he embraced me and we kissed like nothing had ever happened.

Being with Hanako was better than a good dream, it was like being in a lullaby before bed.

Hanako let out a surprised gasp as I bit his lower lip, tasting the iron-taste of his blood as my teeth pierced his skin. Was I being too rough?

Humming hungry as I leaned into him, pushing my breast against his chest while quickly unbuttoning his pants. "Y-Yashiro," He muttered in a muffled voice as I licked his smooth lips. "Y-Yashiro," He muttered again, grabbing hold of my shoulders.

Like a lullaby before bed, which made all of my worries melt away and allowed me to fall into a sweet, cotton candy dream. The sound of his voice was music to my ears.

"Y-Yashiro," he smiled giving in as my hand slid down his shorts; stroking the smooth, hard skin of his cock as it pulsed through my fingers. The thought of it going into me turned me on, making me let out a cute moan as I kissed him.

Being with Hanako was like a lullaby I could feel within my own skin and taste with my mouth and crave terribly like a greedy child. "I love you," I whispered hungrily.

It felt like a lullaby before a perfect dream, but I'm happy it wasn't one. Hanako held my shoulders tighter as my grip on his cock tightened.

It felt too good, the sensation of his fingers against my skin, it made me purr with excitement. Hanako gasped as I pulled off my shirt before pulling him into a deep kiss. Pinning him up against the wall as I unbuttoned his uniform shirt.

"Yashiro!" Hanako blushed pushing me away. But was it the same for him?

I gasped turning red, "S-Sorry," we both said at the same time. "D-Did I do something wrong?" I asked as he took a deep breath, trying to recover from the intensity between us and his instincts telling him to take me right there.

"Is this about what happened yesterday, with Tsukasa?" I asked. Hanako looked away and I could tell the topic frustrated him even though he didn't want to show it. "My head is just everywhere right now," he said awkwardly.

This is embarrassing.

My face shot red as he picked up my shirt off the floor, "Let's just, hang out; ok?" he smiled. I nodded my head shyly feeling the sting of rejection. Then again trying after your sibling is almost killed might be difficult now that I think about it.

"Yashiro," Kou called from the hallway. I nearly jumped out of my skin, shoving Hanako into the closet. "Why did you put me in here?" Hanako asked curiously as I panicked. "I don't know, j-just be quiet for a sec!" I gasped before Kou walked in.

His bright blue eyes were big with curiosity, "Oh, you're in here. I was looking for you, you shouldn't run off if I'm not around," He said worried as Mitsuba followed behind him.

"S-Sorry, I was just; you know… Reflecting on life," I smiled swaying my arms gracefully. "I'd reflect on life too if I wore my shirt inside out, is that a fashion statement or something?" Mitsuba sassed folding his arms.

"Ladies, we can be catty after we've saved her," Teru sighed walking into the room. Save her, what's he talking about?

"Tadaaa, look what we've got for you," Teru smiled showing me a black seal with writing.

Yashiro: "That's… Tsukasa's seal,"

Teru: "Well, it's Amane's seal that Tsukasa had on his face."

Kou: "Teru can use it to make you Hanako's Yorishiro! That way you won't die!"

Yashiro: *Gasp*

Kou: "We did it, Yashiro; we found a way to save you!"

Yashiro covered her mouth as they flooded with tears. "I'm so, I'm so happy," I cried closing my eyes.

Kou wrapped his arms around me in a comforting hug, "We did it, Yashiro," he cried tearfully as he squeezed my hand.

"It was a bit difficult but this seal is the only thing we need to turn you into a Yorishiro," Teru smiled. "Does that mean, it could also be used to turn Tsukasa back as well?" Hanako asked appearing before us.

I had almost forgotten he was hiding, so he heard everything.

I guess we couldn't keep this from him, this school is his playground- his territory. The air became tense. I looked over as Hanako glared at Kou who had a face of stone. "Does it matter? Kou asked.

"This seal is to save Yashiro, Tsukasa's already alive." Kou growled. "It's fine, just… Everyone, stop," I said coming in between them.

"It's obvious your boyfriend is on his brothers' side on this one," Kou growled.

"Mitsuba, why don't you put this somewhere until we need it," Teru commanded, "Yeah, whatever," the pink haired boy yawned snatching the seal and walking off.

Hanako shrugged his head, "I wasn't… I wasn't going to steal it," he objected. "But you thought about it, didn't you?" Kou asked with dark eyes.

For a moment, it was quiet, "Well, the seal won't work until a full moon so there's no use fighting about it now," Teru sighed.

"I'm assuming that has something to do with your obsession with the moon, Hanako-san?" Teru smirked. The dark-haired boy looked irritated but unphased, "I just… I wanted to spend time with Yashiro," Hanako blushed grabbing my hand.

Teru and Kou seemed surprised but I was overwhelmed with happiness as he held my hand. "So if you don't mind," Hanako insisted, looking at the door as he pulled me into his arms. Yes, this was the lullaby before a perfect dream.

"Very well, then; let's go baby brother," Teru smiled falsely as he grabbed Kou's shoulder.

Kou pouted and motioned to say something but Teru patted the top of his head, "Let the love birds have their fun," Teru sighed taking Kou away.

Hanako looked down at me as the door closed and gave me a sad smile. Did this mean he had chosen me over Tsukasa? I blushed in his arms as he kissed me. Surely. This was the lullaby before a perfect, endless dream.

Tsukasa's Point of View-

No one got much sleep that night, it seemed as if everyone had been too focused on Yashiro.

Yes, at our very darkest hour.

Before the daylight came to rise, the king of death was at his strongest. Even as a mortal, my ideas of revenge were endless.

"Haaaaa, I wonder what kind of expressions I'll see; I'm so excited," I smiled stroking my fingers against the red words on the seal. It's pitch-black, yet I could see everything.

My eyes were so well adjusted to the darkness, I could see through it as if it were just another bright day.

"It's so sad. Everyone focusing on Yashiro? It's like they forgot about me, and Sakura too. Haaa, but you," I smiled sorely standing up. My fingers stroked back soft pink hair behind the silent boy's ear, "You've been forgotten since the start, even when you're right in front of everyone." I teased.

My hidden treasure plain in sight, who would have thought?

"Does it hurt? Being ignored, only to be pushed around like a fat first wife, Mitsuba?" I asked feeling his skin shudder at my touch.

For a moment, standing still.

It seemed as if the heroes had won, the dragon slayed. But they were all wrong, they thought they could pretend to ignore their secrets and lies. What they don't understand, they'll fear. They'll hide.

But I know everything.

Sakura's murder. Kou's feelings for Yashiro. Even what Yashiro had forgotten the first night she slept over Kou's. And The secret that Amane didn't want Yashiro to know- the one that would tear him apart.

I ran my fingers across the new school uniform.

They don't know what's coming to them. All of their regrets, their mistakes and sins and fears and everything scary and horrible they've fought so hard to bury. They can't hide us.

"All of the chips are in place," I smiled turning back. "Isn't that right, Sakura?"
