My Diabolik Lover [Sakamaki/Mukami love stories]

3-A bookworms heart [Reiji Sakamaki ]

'Why is it always him? Why does he always get her attention? Why can't she focus on me like she does on him?' Reiji thought as he looked down as his book

Once again his mother was scolding his elder brother, he didn't like the whole idea of being second best when it came down to the intellectual things, unlike his elder brother he was more into books and studying. He hated how his elder brother just thought that his life could go by like nothing ever mattered when it wasn't close to the truth, he was the eldest of all of the children who lived within the manor, he was supposed to be trained to be the head of the family. Not Reiji, no reiji was supposed to just watch his brother become the successor of the Sakamaki household.

It wasn't until it came close to winter when his mother introduced his brother and himself to a young girl who was shivering, he couldn't tell if it was in fear or because she was cold. The female said nothing as she looked to both of them, she was shorter than both of them as he looked her up and down. She only wore a simple black dress with her hair in pig tails, which speaking of her hair. Her hair was two different colors; Purple and black. He didn't understand how it was possible but she had pulled it off as her bangs had covered her left eye, from her right eye he could tell that she had red eyes.

"Shu, Reiji I want the two of you to meet a young girl that I am taking care of from here on out. Her name is May Niya, her parents were going to place her up for adoption. So be nice to her both of you." Beatrix said seriously

Shu instantly went up to her and placed out his hand. "I'm Shu its nice to meet you May!"

She coward closer to Beatrix as she whimpered in fear. Beatrix looked down to her sadly. "Its alright, they're my sons, they won't hurt you."

May looked up to Beatrix and nodded her head "H-Hello." She said softly

Reiji noted that she was a vampire which made him a bit more curious about the female, but said nothing about it. May looked to both males before she stared at Reiji. Reiji noticed it and crossed his arms as she slowly walked up to him.

"Y-You don't seem to like me...o-or is there something else troubling you?" May asked shyly

"Why would I dislike someone I barely know? Don't assume something like that so soon." He said seriously

She nodded her head. "Then let me get to know you Reiji, I....I'd like to know you a bit more since I'm going to be here for awhile."

He nodded his head slightly as he took her to the library, he looked to her only to see her eyes go wide. "W-Wow! So many books!"

He rose an eyebrow at her. "You enjoy reading?"

"Yes! I've always loved reading Reiji...its the only thing I do to past time since my mother always spent time with my sister instead of me. Apparently she wants the lazy butt to become head of the family I was just kicked out of...so I would always close myself off from everyone in the house I lived in just so I didn't have to hear the complaining of my sister." May said as she looked at all of the books around the library

Reiji looked to the girl intrigued. He wouldn't have ever guessed she had dealt with the same thing he has, maybe she wasn't as bad as he thought she was. 

Years went by and Reiji got closer to May, mainly because she was the only one who took notice of his intelligence. She would constantly come to him if she didn't know a word or ask what did a word mean. It got to the point that he figured out that she was only using it as an excuse to talk to him. When they became teenagers he took his glasses off before he closed the book she was reading as he looked to her seriously which made her step back a few steps, she knew never to mess with him when he didn't have his glasses on.

"R-Reiji?"

"Stop playing stupid, I know you're smart enough to read these books on your own, tell me the real reason you came into this room." Reiji said seriously

She looked away from him embarrassed that she was caught. "W-Well...i-its just that..." She said as she looked down at her black shoes

"Speak up May you know that I hate it when you mumble like that." Reiji said sternly

She sighed and looked back up to him. "You never spend time with me anymore, I don't like it that you just pushed me to the side." She said sadly

"I have no time to deal with you right now May, anyways you seem to be doing fine on your own."

She instantly changed and glared at him. "No I'm not! And soon you'll see that yourself!"

She took her book to the library before she met up with the others by the car. She said nothing to any of them as she went into the car, she was fine until she got to the school. She had the same classes as Reiji which pissed her off, she didn't want anything to do with him, but said nothing about it. Days went by until it was a full moon, that's when Reiji saw what May meant when she said she wasn't fine on her own. she had tackled down two males and almost drained the life out of both of them if he didn't pull her away from them. He took her home only to get her to slap him on the face as he saw her red eyes were black as if she had no soul.

"LET GO OF ME!" She growled as he continued to hold her until they reached her room.

He threw her on to her bed before he wiped the blood off of her chin. "Calm yourself, you aren't in school anymore. I don't know why you did what you did but you need to control yourself."

"I CAN'T , its always been a problem of mine. That no good mother of yours always gave me this medication that calmed me, but since she's dead all of the stupid emotions and hormones that went along with the blood lust is coming back to bite my ass." May growled at Reiji

He stood up and patted the top of her head. "You'll be fine once the full moon cycle is over, for the next three days you are to stay here out of site of everyone. If I see you out of here you are going to be punished do you understand me?"

"Yeah...Fine." She said as she crossed her arms

He then left her alone as she started to bite her arms making herself bleed, which when Reiji came back from school to see her arms bloody and her passed out on her bed he pushed his glasses up before he took care of her. He didn't think that it'd be that difficult for her to control herself but knowing that she was dealing with more problems than he was aware of he knew he had to baby sit her.
