Vampire Kisses

26: Shuichi

"Why...would you?...am I not good enough...for you?" Kokichi sobbed making me feel even more guilty about all of this. He was shaking and crying and I didn't even know what to say to him. I wanted to be able to show him that he means a lot to me...

"Oh baby, you are more than enough for me! I didn't mean to leave you I just wanted to get you some water and some snacks so you can recover!" I gasped because I wasn't sure what I was doing. Am I comforting him right? Does he even like being this close to me? An I even a good boyfriend to him?

I felt more panicked by the second. I should have been there for him...this is the same as when I bit him the first time...did he react this way last time I bit him? He must have...I mean the way Kyoko texted me I'm sure he did. Did they give him something to get over it? Or did I take too much blood from him? Oh god! What if I hurt him.

"W-why couldn't I go with you...?" He asked in a hoarse voice. I snapped out of my thoughts and tried my best to keep my tears at bay. Kokichi needs me right now...so crying can wait. I pulled him closer to his chest making sure to hold onto his upper back. I know he loves affection so I rubbed his back. I could feel him slump slightly against me and I assumed this meant that he was relaxing a bit.

"I'm sorry I was just so worried that I hurt you I didn't think about that..." I tried my best to not cry. I made the worst mistake I could have made! I hurt Kokichi by worrying to much...he let my selfish need for blood bite him and I just ended up hurting him again.

He kept shaking against me and all I wanted to do was hold him close and kiss him all over. He deserves all the love in the world...not some selfish vampire who can't control his urges...

"I love you!" He said suddenly making me jump. He held out the words making my eyes widen. I couldn't even process that he said anything until he moved to kiss me. I kissed back immediately letting my worry and fear take over. I kissed him softly making sure I wasn't being too rough...because he is in a vulnerable state right now and I should never take advantage of that...I would never, because I love him.

"I love you too Kichi...I'm sorry I left you alone I didn't mean to make you feel this way..." I let the words come from my heart. Because the truth is I love Kokichi and he deserves to be treated better than I just treated him...I should have stayed by his side...I looked to the side not wanting Kokichi to see tears forming in my eyes. I couldn't forgive myself...and I don't understand how Kokichi forgave me.

After a couple of moments Kokichi seemed to get his energy back so he kissed my forehead and my cheeks before facing me. I looked at him with curiosity coursing through my being. What is he thinking? And has he fully recovered? Probably not...

"It's alright, sorry I just get really clingy and emotional after that," He whispered as he pulled me close to him. He held my head to his shoulder. I winced when I saw him neck and smelled some blood but it didn't feel as overwhelming as it was before. I smiled to myself...I'm glad he wants to be this close to me.

Even after all the blood drinking and the weird bond we have. I was sure he would have been uncomfortable with the bond...but he seems to be taking it very well. I don't mind this at all because I love Kokichi and he loves me.

"I won't leave you alone when we do this again." I apologized again feeling more guilt come to my shoulders. I wanted him to know I won't make the same mistake again...although I need blood now to lead this new life I was forced to live...Kokichi's safety will always be my main priority.

Kokichi slumped against me and sighed. "Thank you, for everything," He whispered leaning on my shoulder as he fell asleep. I knew he was going to feel groggy after that...and if I'm being honest I feel a bit groggy as well.

Yes I feel rejuvenated to have blood from my lover...but the calming feeling of having him in my arms as well as the emotional episode we had together moments prior...I feel pretty exhausted.

I let my body slowly fall back onto the bed so Kokichi was laying on my chest while my arms were still secure around him. I looked to the side and saw the pillow that Kokichi was holding onto and it was covered in tear stains.

Kokichi I don't want you to cry. I love seeing you laugh and smile...I'm not saying crying isn't good for anyone...but I don't like seeing my Kichi and my baby hurting like that.

My hands fell down to hold onto his hips. His legs were tangled with mine as well as the sheets that were halfway over us. I gently rubbed his hips before wrapping my arms around his torso to hold him closer to me. I tried to be as gentle as possible, not because I see him as a weak person or anything...he is so strong! But after having that kind of emotional episode I want him to be able to get all the sleep he can get.

I let my eyes fall closed as Kokichi's small breaths are hitting against my clothed chest. It was calming and he felt so warm...so I was out.

.   .   .

I woke up first and I was kind of surprised that Kokichi wasn't already awake yet...but I took this opportunity to look at his sleeping figure.

He was calm and peaceful. So beautiful that it made me want to just hold onto him and never let go...but alas he needs his rest...

"Rest well, my love," I whispered before laying back down and pulling him closer to me. We have all day today and tonight before we have to go back to school...I can get the assignments done so Kokichi can have more time to rest. This shouldn't be to bad. Most of them are online anyway.
