The boys stared at me as if I had grown two heads, but I held my gaze with Rin's, if I was going to hear the truth it had to be from him.

"Whe-where did that come from?" Yukio asked, hiding his gaze and taking off his jacket. 

"Don't answer my question with a question unless it leads to an answer." I spoke sternly and distantly, feeling less hopeful of the outcome of this confrontation by the minute.

Rin looked away, his jaw clenching, and his eyes distant. 

I stood up and walked over to him, "Tell me the truth, not just for my benefit but for the benefit of everyone in this campus..." I spoke evenly, shutting out emotion as best as I could.

"what do you mean? The benefit of everyone else?" Yukio asked, I didn't know if he was asking out of general concern or if he was just trying to change the subject.

"I don't know if you boys have caught on or not, but I was bred to kill demons, powerful demons. One drop of blood is all it takes and I won't have any control every demonic thing will be dead and anyone who tries to stop me will be dead as well." I spoke evenly, staring at Rin but addressing Yukio.

Rin flinched, his shoulders slumped yet again at that invisible weight that he always appears to be carrying around. He cleared his throat and finally looked up at me, his eyes fierce and pools of emotion, it broke my heart just looking.

"what would that mean for us if its false?" Rin asked in a rough voice, his hands clenching and unclenching with nerves

"I would apologize for doubting you and we would continue dating as we have been..." I answered inside I was hoping that would be the ending, but my voice gave away the fact that I doubted that would be the outcome.

"and if it were true...?" Rin asked quietly, still looking at me as if he saw right through me..and maybe he did..maybe he could read on my face what i was about to say.

"I would either have to kill you or never speak to you again...because I don't think I could kill you...while sane at least." I finally broke his gaze, it was my turn to be nervous. 

"Aoi-" he stood up so quickly his knee banged against the top of his desk, his shorts didn't cover the skin, and the smell of rusty blood, with a hint of sweet. And I knew.  Pain burst behind my eyes, my vision blurred and I hissed, flying backwards away from him. I smacked into the bed, with enough force to move it a inch to the wall. 

Rin's face fell, turning pale, his eyes watered, and he lurched forward, "Aoi, I can explain.." he started his voice ragged

"NO." the word punched out of me, but I felt like the one who was punched. The air was to heavy, my lungs weren't working right. "You...you're demon spawn...unbelievable..." I gritted out, shaking my head, my nails naturally extended like claws, my teeth poked out of my gums like canines. 'This is how its like to feel the curse...I guess I wasn't immune..' "I fell IN LOVE with a monster..." i growled out my voice low and scratchy.

"Don't say that, Aoi...You know us, its not like that..." Rin said brokenly, while Yukio stared at me in shock, his eyes frozen on mine. 

"Stay...stay away from me...away from all of us!!" I growled out, another burst of pain hit my head as my eyes narrowed in on the blood dripping down his knee, and I watched the skin knit back together and the blood clot. His healing rate was elevated because of his demon blood...

"Aoi..." Rin spoke his voice wavering, I pushed my hand out, using air to push him back a few notches.

"Don't text me, don't call me, don't even look at me...you're both monsters and if you try to speak to me again I will kill you both..." I walked toward the doors, and spoke the words over my shoulders, tears falling silently.

"You don't mean that." Yukio finally spoke, his voice calm and collected, like how he always was in a crisis.

"I'm dead serious, stay away from me.." I turned around to look Rin in the eyes, my heart broke for his, but I had to make him hate me..I had to make sure he never came around me again, pain splintered my head jumbling my thoughts and speech, but I kept his gaze, hoping he say the madness in my gaze, and knew that I meant business, "you monster." and with that I shut the door between me and the only person I've ever loved.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx(Rin's POV)

My heart broke, I slumped to the ground staring after her, she was crying...she was crying while she told me she hated me..

"So she can tell the difference between mortals and demons by the smell of their blood...so that means shes not immune to the curse..." Yukio spoke, and I just about lost it.

"HOW COULD YOU BE ANALYZING HER WHEN SHE JUST WALKED OUT ON US!!!" I shouted, my horns poked through and my tail whipped around my legs, my fists clenched as her words bounced around my head. I shot up off the ground and grabbed the front of my brother's jacket, my face in front of his

"You do know what that means for her right?" he spoke calmly, his arms crossed and his face flat, which shook my senses loose a little, I let go of his shirt.

"Oh god...thats  her worse fear...she could lose her mind. Literally." I sat down again, my horns going away and my tail limp on the floor in despair. "She left...she walked out on us again..." I said brokenly, finally letting tears pass over my cheeks, I can't remember the last time I cried, but I didn't realize how much I loved her until she was gone.

"Do you mean us as in you and me or you and her?" Yukio sat down beside me, his eyes level and not at all showing if he was upset which normally would have gotten a rise out of me, but I was too broken to care.

I looked at him, thinking about it before i looked at my hands, "both.." I ran my hands through my hair roughly.

"You...you saw her eyes didn't you...?" Yukio murmured the first signs of showing emotion of how he felt about this.

"Yeah...the whites of her eyes went black and her pupil and iris went white..." I looked at him, "is that the curse's doing? or the angel blood?" I asked, my mind whirring trying to make sense and find a way to get her back

"maybe both..." Yukio sighed, "well what are we going to do?" he asked the million dollar question.

"We find a cure or something, but no matter what we...I have to get her back." I looked at him, my jaw set and my mind made.

"Then lets get down to research, but for now lets play the game and leave her be, when the time comes we'll get her back." he held out his fist, like how we've always made promises

I gave a weak grin and tapped his fist with mine.
