I Dare You

Claimed

I really didn't want any trouble at the time.

Normally I'm with Ayato all throughout the day and he sleeps in my room too.

He says it's cause he doesn't want the others to get any bright ideas.

I didn't really get it.

I was alone for maybe ten minutes tops. Within those ten minutes, I was just cooking. Reiji said I could so I figured I would make Ayato something just cause I think he's cool.

Yeah, I know that's cheesy as fuck. Shut up.

I ended up running into Shu. He seemed pretty indifferent but I didn't exactly feel comfortable being alone with him.

"What was your name again?" He asked.

"Kei" I answered. I was busy washing up. I just had to wait on the oven.

"You're the one Ayato's always with..." he muttered something else but I didn't catch it. He approached me and I wasn't totally sure how to react. I didn't like how close he was. He moved my blonde hair to reveal the several marks Ayato had left around my neck and shoulders. "Possessive freak," Shu said.

"Why are you so close," I said raising up my hands to push him away.

"Let me taste" was all he said and my dumbass thought he meant what I was cooking. Then it clicked as he leaned in and I reacted without thinking. I felt endangered rather suddenly. I shoved hard enough to put some distance between us then brought my leg up rather quickly nailing him in the lower jaw.

I hurried out of the kitchen eager to find Ayato quickly. I was relying on him quite a bit but he was the one I trusted the most.

There had to be something wrong with me...

I ended up returning to the kitchen.

I didn't want to burn the place down so I returned to the kitchen to check on things. Luckily Shu wasn't around anymore which was a relief.

I took care of the food in the oven and stuck a note in it telling the others they were welcome to eat it at their own discretion. I heard footsteps and turned to brandish the knife at whoever had just walked through the door.

"Whoa, Muffin, why the hostility" I immediately lowered the blade.

"Gosh, sorry..." I muttered and turned back to what I was doing.

"Something up?" He never was this caring. 

I wondered why he was being like this.

He turned me around and used the knife I just had to move my face.

"You know... you don't have to be 'nice' if you want to suck my blood. Just go for it" I said. Ayato smirked and did just that.

He recoiled rather suddenly.

"What?" I asked.

"Your blood tastes a little different," He said.

"How the hell does work?" I retorted.

"Dunno, mind telling me why you were pointing a knife at Yours Truly anyway?" He asked. I sighed debating in my head whether or not to lie.

"Shu wanted to drink my blood but I shoved him off and kicked him in the jaw and I've been a little jumpy since then," I said.

"Why didn't you come to me?" He asked.

"I tried, but it's a big house" I reasoned Ayato was a little rougher this time sinking his teeth into my shoulder and draining the blood from my body.

I gripped onto the back of his shirt a little tighter. Oddly, even though he could kill me like this, I felt safe when he held me. 

Something was definitely wrong with me...

I wondered if it was a bad trait, the fact that I let Ayato do whatever he wants with me.

It probably is, but I don't really mind.

I like him and I think he likes me. Or at least he likes using me...
