Twin star exorcists Fantasy

Part 34

All I could see was darkness. No light...

No Rokuro...

Wait, who was Rokuro? Why do I remember that name? And why do I feel so light whenever I think of this person.

I could hear someone comforting me. Someone holding me while some others worked.

"Benio..." That one word slipped into my mind, and I jolted awake. I looked around me, and saw a sleeping body next to me. Suddenly everything came back to me.

I was attacked and Rokuro, the sleeping body, had protected me again. It was our wedding day and I met Nii-sama's true evil form, and Rokuro's other side. The violent one who had killed all of his friends who had turned into monsters, something even more dangerous than Impurities.

I felt a sharp slice of pain through my left arm and winced. Rokuro's grip around my waist tightened. He was still sleeping with a little drool running down his lips. I smiled at the idiot who was supposed to be a prince snuggle closer as he snored slightly.

I lay back down again feeling Rokuro's hands relax again. The area around his face was wet. He was crying... I realized. 

I stroked his soft brown hair calming him down and whatever nightmare he was having. A small smile decorated his face while I chuckled at his childishness. It had started to snow outside again and I could hear the angry wind hitting the glass windows. But at least the wind and snow were blocked out. I got out of bed letting the blanket slide over Rokuro. That would keep him warm.

I reached into the closet and got out a warm sweater. I slipped it over my head and laid down on the bed.

"B-benio?" Rokuro had woken up from his beauty sleep and was now groggily rubbing his eyes. "BENIO!!!" he started firing all sorts of concerned questions at me. I chuckled a little.

Realizing what he was doing he stopped and blushed a little. He held out a hand and I took it.

"May I have this dance? M'lady?" I laughed and stepped closer to him. His strong hand went protectively around my waist, and I placed my hand on his shoulder. We gripped each other's hand as if it were the most precious thing in the world, and waltzed around the room. Rokuro was going slowly so I could pick up the steps and not trip on my dress.

After we were done dancing. Well more like I got tired because of the poison and Rokuro was being lazy. We changed into our nightwear and kissed once before hugging each other and going to sleep peacefully.

ROKURO P.O.V.

As soon as I made sure that Benio was asleep and safe I got onto Chestnut. Remember? His horse's name is Chestnut? 

I rode to the main palace. I was totally covered in snow. The guards immediately opened the gates and let me through Servants coming out to hold umbrellas over my head and guide me into the palace with lanterns. But I brushed them off, even then they followed me and I started to get annoyed.

"DAD!!!" I yelled while banging at his office door. The servants jumped and scurried away .
