It was still early when I wake up and do my usual morning routine. When I run downstairs to the kitchen, I met Shiki. "Morning~!" I said. He gretted me back with his usual monotone voice. His emotionless expression never changes as his eyes stared into mine and back to whatever he is doing.

"Are you also looking for something to eat?" I tried to make out a conversation seeing that he looks like he is looking for something. He shrugged still focused on what he is doing.

"You don't know?! Oh come on..! You must be kidding right?" I said and he shakes his head 'No'

I laughed and started gathering ingredients. I can tell that he wanted to eat human food (which is rare for someone like him) but he can't say it to me straight. After all, he's a level B. An aristocrat so human food is not enough to satisfy his cravings. Instead, he can eat blood tablets.

"Don't worry Shiki-san! I'll make you the best sukiyaki you will ever taste!" I said and started cooking. He didn't react and just watched me. When I finished cooking, we ate together in the large Dining room. I'm used to eating human food than drinking blood and it surprised me that for someone like him, he didn't hesitate eating my Sukiyaki.

"It's good" he said almost smiling and continued eating. Why don't I try putting some perfume on it next time and see. Bwuahahahahaha!! Just kidding!! I won't do that to my precious friend Shiki. NEVEEEEEEERRRRR!!

"I have to admit it but he's really gorgeous even the way he eats is really cute and that smile... Kyaaa! XD" I thought to myself as I watched him. I almost blushed and thank God it retreated when an 'Unidentified Mysterious Animal' aka Aidou, my greatest enemy, came followed by Mr. Lover Boy Kain, my Partner Ichijo and the rest of the gang.

"What was that smell?" Aidou said, making me growl in disatisfaction.

"Of course it's food! What else do you think it is? Garbage?" I said sarcastically and Aidou scowl. We had a 'Glaring Daggers Contest' at each other when Kain broke us off. "Did you cook the Sukiyaki? Can I have a taste?"

"Me too! Can I?" said Rima and Ichijo in unison.

"Sure! No problem as long as it's you guys!" I said cheerfully like nothing happened between my fight with Aidou and everyone took a plate of their own and started digging in.

"Really? Then I'm digging too!" Aidou also said cheerfully "Itadakimasu---!"

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLTT!!" I exclaimed and in a flash...

"UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!"

Everyone was startled and their eyes went wide as a saucer when Aidou screamed in agony. I actually stabbed his hand who was reaching out for my Sukiyaki with a fork I was holding on purpose. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" I screamed

"AND WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR?!" Aidou screamed while rubbing his abused hand.

"OOOOOOOHHH..! YOU THINK I WOULD FORGIVE YOU AFTER YOU INSULTED MY WORLD'S MOST DELICIOUS SUKIYAKI?! IN YOUR FACE!!

"I'M NOT INSULTING IT!! I'M ABOUT TO COMPLIMENT IT BECAUSE IT SMELLS SO GOOD!! BUT YOU TOOK IT THE WRONG WAY AND STABBED MY DELICATE HAND!!" he burst out and a sign of annoyance is visible on his forehead.

"Oh I see..." I smiled like an innocent child and waved my hand at him "You should have said it sooner"

"I'LL REALLY KILL YOU!!"
