Frisson (Diabolik lovers)

XVII. Hell nah!

A few weeks have gone by after the dinner with Subaru and I still didn't know what in the world happened there. Why didn't I feel pain when he bit me? Why did Subaru want to have a dinner with me? How pissed off was Reiji after he saw his dead chicken coming back to life just to escape from him? So many questions that no one answered.

Well... There was an answer to the last question but I'd rather not think about it anymore.

To compensate for his missing dinner, Reiji prepared the monthly party once again. And it was really awkward... We were having dinner - all seven of us. Six eaters and one main course meal - me. But we were having normal food, so death caused by the blood loss wasn't my main worry yet. No. It was their behavior that got my alarm bells ringing inside my head. They were trying to treat me nicely.

"Lauren-san, if you you don't eat this cookie I gave you, Teddy will make sure to make your life living hell." As I said, trying to.

"Don't listen to that hystery. Here. Eat this." Subaru placed a few strawberries on my plate.
"Aren't you gonna eat these yourself? Don't you like strawberries?" I asked surprised.

"Everything tastes the same to me anyways, so you can have my share."
"Thanks," I smiled. Even though Subaru was also twisted in his own way, sometimes he seemed to be really kind towards me. I wonder why?

"Hah?! How dare you?!"
"Ayato, what do you mean?" I asked. What did I do this time?
"Ayato-kun~ it's not the time to be asking this," Laito's smirk was not its usual relaxed one. It was really tensed up. Subaru knowingly chuckled under his breath. Were they planning something bad? My appetite disappeared, but I couldn't skip my meal - it would be really unhealthy.

"Shizuka-san, do you like strawberries?"
"Bitch-chan adores them. Do you remember how I fed you some in a shower, hm? Want to repeat?"
"No!" My appetite disappeared entirety.

"You look like a strawberry yourself. All red and tasty," Kanato licked his lips.

Attention! The creep detector has picked up enormous amount of creep. If this amount won't be reduced - all systems will start the operation 'Panic! At the mansion'! I repeat, all systems will start to PANIC!

"I am not going to say thank you."
"You're welcome." Kanato said with a smile. I slightly shifted away from Kanato. Unfortunately, to my left was Laito.

"Ah, I see. You want to be fed by me. Maybe this time we should bring it even further?" What in the world was he talking about?! Nothing had happened in that shower! I looked at Reiji, fearing he would understand things the way Laito was putting them. That would be really bad. Really bad!

"I don't want these mashed potatoes! I want the sweet ones! Where are my sweet potatoes?" asked Kanato just to be ignored. Seeing that, purple haired vampire smashed his plate into the wall, but no one even flinched... Except for me...

"Laito, if you confined yourself from spouting nonsense like that we all would appreciate it." Reiji shot Laito an irritated look that angry mothers might give you.

"Reiji, where are sweet potatoes?" asked Kanato, but everyone ignored him once again.

"Heh, wannabe," Shu chuckled. Laito crushed the strawberry he was holding. Even though this shower pervert was trying to smile, twitching of his right eye was hard not to notice.

"Shuu-kun, you shouldn't interfere."
"Why?"
"You know why." Atmosphere was getting so tense it was hard to breathe.
