Red like Blood

[Kieru]

Kaekeru remained silent a moment before responding. "More... If you'll allow it." He said a bit quietly into her ear.

[Zephel]

Instead of replying what he asked, Syani just closed her eyes, trying to stop her tears streaming down...

"Thank you.... Thank you...for accepting me...as who I am, not what I am....."

Noticing her tears won't stop, she just rubbed her face with her cold hands, turning away from Kaekeru in the process, "I have to tell you something, Kaekeru. .....I think...I think I love you......and that made me so afraid of you... Which made me confused 'cause I really like it when you're near... I don't know--"

She stopped herself from saying anymore. It's rare for her to express her feelings through words, that's why things kept blowing up if she kept it to herself. Now, all is calm. No explosions, no booms...nothing. Just her words from the heart.

[Kieru]

Kaekeru had a small smile still on his lips as he watched her and moved close, moving his arms around her to hold her closely from behind. "I love you too.." He whispered carefully in her ear as he held her.

[Zephel]

Smiling as she heard that, Syani holds his arms softly, "...Dammit, I'm getting mushy if you're near me, dude. Sorry about that."

[Kieru]

Kaekeru gently placed a hand at her cheek, turning her face to the side as he moved around a bit and placed a gentle kiss on her lips for the second time.

[Zephel]

Before she could even blink, she found herself in a kiss....again. Being in a skin contact, she can't help but to shiver as her muscles tightened. Like she expected, the explosions occured, exactly like what happened back near the Night Club...

One particular explosion boomed right near the two, which is the exact moment Syani pulls away and pushes herself backwards, relieved the mushyness is over. Just as the kiss is over, the explosions stopped...

The half-vampire looked around. Almost 80% of the field is now covered with soil, thanks to her telekinesis and explosions. She slowly stood up, dusting her clothes and looking around for her World War II book, trying to forget on what just happened.....though her red face didn't agree with her.

[Kieru]

Kaekeru watched her with a grin as she pulled away and stood up before standing himself after a moment and brushing himself off, though keeping his eyes on Syani.

[Zephel]

Finally spotting her massive book covered in dirt, she bend down and picks it up after dusting the soil away, "You DO realize that people are gonna say something if you keep doing that, right?"[/color]

[Kieru]

Kaekeru just grinned at Syni still. "They can say whatever they want. It doesn't matter to me. It's none of their business anyway." He said almost a bit more casually than his usual completely formal speech, obviously pleased as he watched her.

[Zephel]

Syani stared at him unbelievably, then quickly looked up at the sky, "That's funny, I didn't see any full moons up there," sarcastically said in a joking way, the half-vampire recalled the time when Kaekeru had explained to her back at the Potions and Charms class that he's being mushy only under the light of the full moon.

Hugging that massive stolen book of her against her chest, she sighed, "Oh well. At least now I know that you got all creepy when your eyes turned red. ...But I guess you're truly being yourself now since I didn't see any color change in your eyes when you just-- ...Y'know what, let's just forget that ever happened, alright? Great!"

Answering her own question fast, its clear she's embarassed about it. She tried to shrug that off...though that clearly doesn't work with that crimson blush still present on her cheeks. Clutching her World War II book tight in her arms, the raven-haired turned around, having her back facing Kaekeru, not wanting the male vampire to see her blushing furiously like that...

Blinking at the destroyed strawberry field, Syani had her eyes lowered down after a moment of silence, "...Kae-kun. ...You said before that...when a vampire drinks another vampire's blood and vice versa or whatever.....they'll have this strong affection towards each other or something something...."

Her sentence trailed off as she tried to control her emotions, not wanting things to blow up all over again, as that's a sure sign of her being defeated in the battle once more. Her grasp of the book was tighter now, since she can't believe she brought out that topic...

'Stupid, stupid, stupid!! I'm walking right into an enemy territory with that sort of statement...!! ...Gah... too late to turn back now.....might as well get on with it.....and hope I'll still be alive...'

Squeezing the huge book, Syani can't seem to state her question, still blushing madly while having her eyes locked on the ground. She just stood there, unable to say anything, her face turning very red...

[Kieru]

Kaekeru watched and listened to Syani intently, waiting for the right moment to do or say something. When she turned around, pausing as she was staring at the ground and blushed, Kaekeru slowly walked forward and placed a hand on her head, looking down to her, standing rather close. He then moved his other hand to brush back a bit of her hair before moving it forward to her chin to lift her head slightly.

"What is it you wish to ask of me?" He asked her with a somewhat gentle but serious face as he watched her eyes.

[Zephel]

Trying not to back away by the close distance between them, gulping every so often. Nothing exploded when she blushed though, signalling she must've used a lot of strength to calm down herself...

"I..... well...I was wondering...."

Just as she started stuttered, a loud beeping noise could be heard throughout the field. Reaching inside her cloak and pulling out her Almaz fast, Syani was relieved she was saved by the beep, "Oh lookie! A new student just got approved, Kae-kun~! ,,,A lot of them, actually...!"

Obviously changing the subject, the half-vampire finally noticed two of the students approved are...

"VAMPIRES?!"

[Maki]

A vampire cloaked in pure black walked around, searching for the person carrying a specific scent. He stopped by the Strawberry Fields, noticing a familiar white cloak not far in. He jumped in and began to walk, his anger rising a bit with each step before he broke into a run.

"Meigara!!!" He shouted as he got closer, raising his fist and throwing a rather strong punch right in the direction of Kaekeru's face, enough strenght in his punch to knock anybody back rather far.

[Kieru]

Kaekeru somewhat scowled as he heard more vampires had enrolled. He wondered if they had tracked him from the scent of his bloodstone.

A moment later, Kaekeru heard his name being shouted. He turned to face his old friend, "Kumo?!" He asked back in slight shock, a slightly surprised look on his face as he then brought his hands in front of his face to block Sen's punch, only being pushed back a bit as he dug his feet into the ground to slow himself.

Kaekeru quickly moved forward again, bringing his arm up and swiftly moving it around Sen's neck to catch him in a choke hold. "What the hell are you doing here, Kumo?" He asked in a stern voice with a rather angry face. What should be obvious to Sen was that he wasn't using his full strength at the moment.

[Maki]

Sen could tell instantly that Kaekeru had no intention of using his full strength at the moment. Still, Sen was overpowered by the other vampire, raising his hands to grabs Kaekeru's arm that held his neck.

"I should be asking you the same damn question, Meigara!" Sen shouted back, struggling a bit to get out of Kaekeru's choke hold.

"Why the hell did you leave?! Huh?! Because you're the only Meigara left?! That didn't mean you were alone! What about us Kumo, huh?! We spent many nights burrying all of you thinking you were gone like the rest! I spent the past years searching all over for your damned self, Meigara!" Sen ranted angrily. "Let go of me! bastard!"
