"Listen to me Takuma,"
I began, speaking softly to the blonde vampire in my arms,  

"I'll be okay. I know now that I shouldn't meet with Senri or any of the others alone. If they want to speak with me I'll tell you so you can come with me. I'm not going anywhere. I promise." 

My words seemed to have a calming effect on him. As I spoke he wrapped his arms around me and held me closer to him, cherishing the moment we were sharing, 

"Alright, Y/N, I believe you. I just... I don't want to see you in harms way." 

He stroked my hair as he rested his forehead against mine, making me smile softly. After staying like this for a few more minutes, he pulled away, 

"I shouldn't keep you from your rest. I'll jump down and come in though the font so as not to arouse his suspicions. I'll see you tomorrow."

He said as he moved to jump down from the balcony, 

"Goodnight, Takuma."

I said as he was about to leave. He turned towards me, the moonlight illuminating his pale face to give him an almost angelic glow as he responded,  

"Goodnight, Y/N." 

And with that, he jumped down and vanished into the full moon's light. I smiled to myself and closed my balcony doors, locking them with a small 'click'. I changed into my pajamas and got into bed. I tried to sleep but my mind was swirling with thoughts, replaying all the events of the day in my head, 

If Alek really was using Senri then we have to act fast. I don't want anyone else being used or hurt because of my power hungry brother. 

I thought to myself as my eyelids slowly slipped closed.

When I woke up the next morning, I heard a commotion coming from the main hall. Confused, I quickly dressed and headed down to see Akatsuki and Hanabusa arguing, each looking ready to pounce, 

"You need to stop your incessant flirting, Hanabusa. It won't get you anywhere." 

Akatsuki calmly told his cousin, who's anger only rose, 

"I need to stop? Why? Last time I checked, she enjoyed my company. She had a great time on our date--"

"You let her get kidnapped." 

Akatsuki cut the blonde off coldly, that was when I decided enough was enough, 

"Stop it both of you!" 

I snapped, causing both vampires to freeze as I descended the stairs to confront them,

"Hanabusa, what happened was in no way your fault. You have no reason to feel any form of guilt. And Akatsuki I'm a big girl of (your age), I think I can handle a flirt." 

I stated bluntly, irritation and agitation dripping from my words. Both boys looked at the floor in shame. I sighed in annoyance before going outside, Akatsuki following closely after, 

"I'm sorry Y/N, I was only looking out for your well being." 

Akatsuki spoke softly. I sighed, 

"It's alright. I know he can be a flirt. I get that you were just looking out for me, but I am capable of looking out for myself. I'm sorry for snapping." 

My annoyance left me as I explained my reasoning and apologized. Akatsuki smiled, 

"You don't need to apologize. I shouldn't have tried to assume what's best for you."

I nodded in agreement, 

"Nope." 

I said, popping the "p". we both started laughing, causing the mood between the two of us to lighten. As our laughter died down, Akatsuki looked at me seriously, 

"Seriously though, Hanabusa is always up to something. If he tries anything come and tell me, alright?" 

I nodded in confirmation, making the fiery haired vampire smile, 

"Fantastic. Well," 

He leaned down and brought my hand to his lips, kissing he back of it, 

"Until next time." 

He said charmingly as he went back into the Moon Dorm. I smiled to yourself as I made my way down the steps to see Headmaster Cross. It's time to put a stop to all of this.
