(Later That Same Night; Streets of the Capital)

"P-Please don't kill me!" A young woman pleaded, as the hand around her throat tightened. On the ground next to the woman, was the decapitated body of her boyfriend; his blood staining the road.

"Such a naughty, naughty girl. It's all your fault for walking around at such a late hour." A malevolent voice said, its owner's fingers digging into the young woman's neck. "Didn't your parents ever warn you of the monsters that come out at night?"

"I-I'll do anything you want! Please...Please just let me live..." The woman begged, as tears freely flowed down her cheeks.

"Oho, you'll really do anything?" The mysterious man asked, causing the young woman to rapidly nod her head. "Well, I oh so love to talk, why don't you entertain me?"

"W-We can talk! I'll talk with you as long as you want!" The woman exclaimed, as she felt the man's grip on her neck loosen ever so slightly. The woman thought she might finally be in the clear...that was until the man asked his first question.

"What's it feel like to have your head chopped off?" The man asked, earning a confused look from the young woman. "Does it hurt? Or do you feel absolutely nothing?" In the blink of an eye, a large blade extended from the man's arm and sliced clean through the woman's neck. The woman didn't even feel the blade hit her skin, before her lifeless body fell to the ground. "I guess you really don't feel anything." With a twisted smile the man dropped the woman's decapitated head. "Mmmm, how utterly delightful! I just can't seem to help myself!"

(The Next Morning; Night Raid's Hidden Base)

Tatsumi groaned as he slowly awoke from his slumber. But when the young man went to rub his eyes, he found an odd weight on his arm. Cracking a single eye open, Tatsumi nearly screamed when he saw Akame lying in the bed with him. Tatsumi then noticed that, while Akame was lying on top of one of his arms, his other arm was wrapped around her waist; hugging her close to his body. The young man's entire face burned bright red when Akame suddenly snuggled closer to him.

"What the hell?! What the hell?! What the hell?!" Tatsumi frantically chanted in his head, as he tried to remember what happened last night. "Okay Tatsumi, calm down now. She's still in her clothes so we didn't do any too bad. Let's see...what happened last night? Oh yeah that's right, Akame kissed me and admitted that she has feelings for me...But when I tried to tell her about my vision of Mine, she stopped me and kissed me again...After that she said that she wanted to spend the night with me...God what am I going to do? I really like Akame, and I know her feelings are genuine...But I have to tell her about Mine as well...Gah! But I don't want to break her heart either! Why is this happening to me?!"

"Good morning, Tatsumi." Akame's tired voice snapped Tatsumi out of his thoughts. Her blood red eyes quickly locked with his emerald green ones. A small smile spread across Akame's face, and she leaned in to give Tatsumi a good morning kiss. The young man didn't deny the kiss, and actually returned it with just as much love and passion. "Thank you for letting me sleep with you last night. I just didn't feel like sleeping alone."

"You...You can sleep with me anytime you want, Akame." Tatsumi said, as a slight blush dusted across his face. "It was kind of nice to sleep with someone close like that."

"I'm glad you feel that way, because I plan on doing it a lot from now on." Akame said with a teasing smile, kissing Tatsumi on the cheek. "Now come on, we have to get up and start your morning train-" Akame was cut off when the door to Tatsumi's room suddenly swung open. Both assassin's blushed bright red when Leone waltzed into the room.
