Only in Your Arms

Silhouetted by the Moon

     As the moon rose higher and higher into the star filled night sky, the dimly lit room, filled with a mix of a faint yellow glow from the bedside lamp, as well as the silver light of the moon. The night air felt especially cold tonight, a sign that the cooling season of Autumn was soon upon them. 

     Yuma was standing alone next to one of the large windows, his broad back to the nearly darkened room. His sharp, brown eyes keep looking up at the nearly full moon. As he did, a small smile appears on his lips. He was feeling happy and confident, for tonight was the night. His brothers had left for the weekend, leaving him to have the whole mansion to himself...well...almost all to himself.

     As he gave a small sigh, a small knock suddenly comes from the door.

     "Yuma...? It's me...can I come in?"

    A soft voice calls from behind the closed door. Only turning his head, Yuma calls over his left shoulder.

     "It's open..."

     As the door slowly opens, he turns to see Yui enter the bedroom. When she closed the door with a snap, a small smile appears on her own face as she sees her lover, Yuma, standing in front of the window, the moonlight falling upon his large silhouette, like a silver frame around his shoulders and head. His face was half hidden in shadow, making his features seem more sharp and mysterious.

     "Yui...I was actually starting to get a little impatient...you should know by now what happens when you keep me waiting."

     When Yui approached and stood before him, looking up into Yuma's face, she just smiled and then she turned her head away a little bit in embarrassment.

     "I wanted to keep you waiting..."  She says in a low voice, a light blush coming to her cheeks.  "You always seem to become more passionate when kept waiting. Plus...I could not decide if I should do something extra special for tonight..."  Yui turns her eyes back onto Yuma's face, then lays her hands on his wide, firm chest.  "Tonight is extra special and I want to make you happy."

     Yuma looks down at her with warmth and respect in his eyes. Ever since they had confessed their love and feelings for each other, both he and Yui's lives just seemed to become more bright. Not only did Yuma learn to love, but he also came to respect and love Yui as a woman. As a vampire, he still drank and desired her blood, but he now did so in very passionate ways. He was still dominant and pushy in some ways, but as his love for Yui grew, he became more courteous towards her own feelings as well.  Simply put, love had changed him, and made him more protective, caring, and more happy, and expressive with his feelings.

     Smiling down at her in a gentle way, Yuma raised his right hand and caressed Yui's left cheek.  His large hand was warm, his touch gentle.

     "Tonight is the perfect night for it...just having you by my side makes me happy. But we have the whole night to just be together...no brothers, no distractions, no reasons to feel embarrassed..." His arms then slowly wrap around her waist, as he leans in towards her face.  "And you will have no excuse in trying to hold your voice back..."

     Yui closed her eyes as she feels Yuma's lips press against hers. When she slowly wraps her own arms around his broad back, the kiss soon becomes more passionate. As Yuma starts to become more demanding with his lips, opening his mouth a little wider, slightly changing angles, his hands then start to feel over Yui's body, first caressing her sides, and then work up to her shoulders and jawline, their lips sweetly smacking against each other. The more they kissed, the more the mood for the special night to come was building and becoming right.

     After a few moments, Yuma is the one who breaks the kiss. Feeling the need to use all this night to spent every moment expressing his love and desire to Yui, and embrace her in his arms, he was going to go all the way tonight.

     "Yui..."  His deep voice whispers her name in the near darkness.  

     Yui's flushed face looks up into Yuma's face once more.

     "Yes...?"  She asks in a heated whisper, feeling her heart slightly racing in her chest.

     "Lets start it off right..." He says as he takes her hands in his.  "I want to see and explore every part of you, tonight...I want to hold you in my arms and never let go...how about...we start off with something a little hot and steamy?"

     Yui flushed even more, but she understood his words perfectly. As a matter of fact, from earlier today, she did feel a little dirty, and she thought he felt a little bit as well. Maybe that is why he was suggesting his proposal in such a coding way.  She smiles and takes his hand, then starts to lead him to the door that lead to his large private bathroom.

     "I think that is a wonderful idea, Yuma...we can also take another one later."
