(Recap chapters are from 33-37)

Do you like being in my Nightmares, Tsukasa?

It's loud, the sound of Kou sobbing.

I turned my head, Kou sat in shame; tied up naked in a chair on the other side of the room. His mouth gagged and spirit broken; my head sunk; he must be so tired. Me too.

My mind must be so messed up from all the trauma I took, I can hardly believe I dreamed Tsukasa and I had gotten our happy ending. My head moved forward once more, watching as Tsukasa gave me a 'washcloth' bath; gently holding my arm as he rubbed it up and down with a warm, wet cloth.

What's the last thing I remember? I woke up with Kou on top of me, I guess Tsukasa forced him to do it again. But before that, I had such a wonderful dream. My eyes narrowed as I tried thinking further back.

And… Before that, before that; the last thing I remember was- drowning. That's right, I remember Tsukasa forcing me down into the water after bathing me. I looked down, my eyes gazing at the ripped back seal in between my small breasts.

Awe, so that was real.

My eyes peered at Tsukasa who was focused on cleaning my bruised skin, I exhaled heavily seeing the claw marks on his face. Did I, do that? My eyes narrowed as I tried recalling what happened before he tried drowning me.

"Ah, you're finally awake. You fell back asleep, I wasn't sure if you'd wake back up again," Tsukasa smiled drying my damp arms. Besides my head, I couldn't move; I could barely feel anymore. My body felt cold and my mind was cloudy.

Tsukasa: "Awe, you don't look so good Nene."

Yashiro: "… I, don't feel so good either,"

Tsukasa: "Are you in pain,"

Yashiro: "… No,"

Tsukasa: "Are you hungry?"

Yashiro: "No,"

Tsukasa: "Are you mad at me?"

Yashiro: "… No."

Mad? Maybe I was. But I was too tired to feel it.

Tsukasa smiled, dipping the rag in water before moving to clean my face. For a while, it was quiet. I had been fully washed from head to toe, my hair clean from being washed the night before. Tsukasa brushed it back behind my ears, pausing as I exhaled in awe.

That's right.

"You remember, don't you?" Tsukasa asked. I stared motionless, last night; Tsukasa told me he loved me. I blushed and Tsukasa looked away. What's that expression? "Did… Did you mean it?" I asked with wide eyes.

Keeping his eyes down, Tsukasa thought for a moment. "You're alive, aren't you?" he said plainly, opening a purple box. I couldn't help but blush even harder, feeling my heartbeat pulsing through all of my body. Even in my weakened state, I was able to tilt my head and smile happily.

To be loved, was such a good feeling.

Tsukasa looked up, thrown off by my tears of happiness as I smiled at him; was it weird for him? Feeling that way about someone other than Hanako? "I wasn't sure…" He started to say in a hushed voice as he dressed me.

"But after watching Kou do it with you again… I… Was sure, that I didn't wanna share you. I just needed to make sure," he said before looking up at me. This anger, this hatred I had toward Tsukasa for tormenting Kou and I- how could it melt away so quickly. My eyes softened and I whimpered as Tsukasa placed his hands on my cheeks.

He's looking at me so intensely, I couldn't realize myself crying. Smiling happily as his hands moved down to my neck. "I love you, Nene. So, die for me," he smiled with dark eyes. For love, I've always been weak. Even if I wanted to be strong, even if I wanted to fight back and stop Tsukasa as his hands tightened around my throat.

Even if I didn't want Kou to suffer in horror watching Tsukasa kill me- I was just to tired. I closed my eyes, As I faded away, I imagined an existence of being happy- how nice that would have been. At least I can't feel anything anymore, at least I died loved.

I exhaled, opening my eyes. I could hear the night time wind blowing through the open window, wait- wasn't I dead? I sat up from the ground I laid on, I'm still in my house. I looked around, no Kou? No Tsukasa?

Standing up, I walked around curiously.

Wait- walking? I lifted my arms; I didn't feel any pain! I ran into my room and looked in my mirror, dressed in a black dress and heels; with my hair brushed nicely and face done with makeup, I grabbed my cheeks in confusion. No scars? No bruises? Was I just having a nightmare?!

I noticed black sticking out from my cleavage in the reflection of the mirror. No, it wasn't a nightmare. I was quick to pull down my dress to see the ripped black seal still on my breast. "What's going on!" screamed inspecting my uninjured body.

I ran out of my house, racing to the school without changing clothing.

Ok, let's backtrack. Tsukasa got turned into a human, Mitsuba and Kou jump human Tsukasa and Hanako nurse him back to health, human Tsukasa kidnaps me and Kou, Human Tsukasa assaults and torchers Kou and I for days on end, Tsukasa almost drowns me and I have a crazy dream, I wake up and Tsukasa kills me- but I wake up again and I'm alive?

Everything in between is still a little blurry; but if Tsukasa has Kou- then he might be in danger. Panting, I rushed into school: this, feels familiar. "I just got him back, I won't let you kill my brother!" Hanako yelled. Kill his brother- they're going to kill Tsukasa?! Hanako's voice echoed around the school, but it didn't confuse me.

I knew exactly where to go, "Wait!" I yelled running through the hall. I shoved the auditorium doors open; panting as I walked in. "D-Don't kill him!" I panted nearly falling over. Everyone's here, gathered around; just like in my dream-

Tsukasa smiled as everyone looked at me in shock.

"YASHIRO!" They all cried, I gasped waving my hands awkwardly. "A-Ah, please don't yell," I blushed shyly as my black dress brushed against my upper thighs.

Teru dropped his staff, his eyes opening wide as he saw the black seal peaking in between my breasts.

"You can't kill Tsukasa… Without killing Yashiro as well," Teru said in awe. Tsukasa laughed, I looked in shock at the matching black seal on his chest, he wrapped an arm around Hanako.

My body sank a bit, my eyes opening wide. This wasn't my dream; this was my prophecy; which means. Everything that happened in my dream is going to happen- but why?

I blushed lovingly as my eyes met with Tsukasa, recalling everything he said to me in the bathtub and before he killed me. I realized I wasn't in pain; because I wasn't a human anymore. Yes, like this; we are the same.

"Welcome back, Yashiro," Tsukasa teased cocking a witty eyebrow. I couldn't hear anything else, walking up to Tsukasa; I pulled my hand back and smacked him.

So hard it left a dark red mark, it was silent. Tsukasa, unphased; turned his head back to look at my face as my eyes watered; his lip bleeding as he stood up straight. Is he angry? Irritated? Entertained?

Looking up at the dark-haired demon, who had made me suffer so much; I felt overwhelmed with emotion. Grabbing him by the collar of his open shirt, I stood on my tippy toes and kissed him. "This, is a nightmare," I thought to myself. Because I'm head in heels in love with you-

Creator's Note:
