(Y/N).

The girl stirred in her sleep, dreaming.

(Y/N).

She couldn't see clearly in her dream, it was all a blur to her. The only thing she did was reached out her arm to the blurred figure who was calling out to her.

(Y/N), wake up!

The (H/C)-haired female gasped as she woke up, she panted slightly and she noticed she's back in her room.

I thought I was with Ayato-san last night.

(Y/N) smiled to herself as a thought came to her mind.

Probably he dropped me back here.

She froze for a moment,
But what if he took advantage of me last night, and bit me?

Her hand immediately flew straight to her neck and she sighed in relief, when she didn't feel any wounds or marks.

(Y/N)'s figure reflected the mirror and she recalled that she have to visit the school again at the evening. She sighed to herself.

Why did Hisakawa have to rely on me checking the school on a Sunday?

Hisakawa told her to check the school every Sunday, to make sure everything is prepared for another school-week.

The female looked at the clock which stated it was already 5:30pm, she can't believe she slept for the whole day. Well it didn't surprise her since she's used to wake up at different times.

Looks like I'll have to get ready...

-------------------------------------------

When (Y/N) arrived at school, she noticed the door that leads to the library is open. She grew curious and went to take a look.

"Reiji-san, may I ask what are you doing here on a Sunday?" She asked as she saw the butler-like male siting in one of the provided chairs with a book on his hand.

Reiji looked up at her, with a blank look.

"I'm doing advance studying, Ms. (Y/N) and may I ask what are you doing here as well?"

"Hisakawa-san, asked me to check the school to make sure everything is ready for tomorrow." (Y/N) smiled sheepishly at him.

"I see..."

(Y/N) felt uncomfortable around Reiji, especially they're both alone, like right now. She recalled a memory when he tried to take advantage of her, she gritted her teeth slightly, trying not to throw her anger at him even though he deserves it.

"Well, I'll be taking my leave Reiji-san." The girl shot him a fake smile and she was about to leave when Reiji spoke.

"Do you dislike me that much
Ms.(Y/N)?" He thought for a moment before rephrasing his sentence,
"Perhaps 'despise' is a more suitable word for it."

(Y/N) faced him once more, with a bitter look on her face,
"Of course I don't Reiji-san, even though you tricked me and tried to take advantage of me, I couldn't possibly despise you." She said sarcastically.

Reiji glared at her sarcasm comment,
"I'm asking a serious question
Ms.(Y/N), so you better take my question in a serious manner."

(Y/N) let out a fake laugh for a few seconds, then she glared back at him.
"Since you've asked to talk in a more 'serious-tone', then I'll give you a straight answer." She walked right in front of him, and glared at him.

"I dislike you for what you did. However, I couldn't despise you for it. In this world, people tend to do something with a reason and the same goes for a vampire like you." She stated and started walking away from him.

"Are you comparing with your pathetic race Ms.(Y/N)?"

(Y/N) didn't look back at him,
"I'm just stating on what I observed in this world Reiji-san, comparing two different races are pointless."

She heard him sigh and the sound of a book being closed. Reiji thought the words of what the girl said then he approached her,
"If you were asking an apology for what I did, you could've said it sooner Ms.(Y/N)."

(Y/N) didn't say anything else and the butler-like male shook his head from the lack of answer from her,
"I apologize Ms.(Y/N), I didn't thought my actions would affect you this much. A gentleman like me, should know his limits."

The girl tried not to roll her eyes at his apology, she knew he didn't mean it but he only said this, because a 'gentleman' would apologize for his actions.

Reiji frowned at the girl's lack of answer again,
"Ms.(Y/N) if someone speaks to you, you should reply back. A lady like you, not replying to a gentleman is considered rude."

"I know that Reiji-san, I have learned the proper etiquettes since I was raised in a family of aristocrats. But those kind of rules doesn't apply to me. I only see myself as a woman without any special social status."
(Y/N) said calmly, she didn't care about those etiquettes anymore since she believed it only limited her actions, to put it short, no freedom at all.

The ebony-haired male glared at her again, he couldn't understand this female, all he want is for her to act as a proper lady, just like his mother.

"It's odd though, seeing that you left your brothers all by themselves back at the manor." She changed the topic to a lighter one, although she would've love to leave right now, she was curious on why he left the brothers. Knowing them, they could destroy their mansion with just a fist.

Reiji didn't mind that the girl changed the topic,
"I left Ms.Yui in charge of the manor, that Good-for-Nothing is better off by himself."

(Y/N) sweat-dropped, she could imagine Yui right now helplessly trying to stop the brothers from messing the manor. She took a book and sat down a chair away from Reiji.

"May I ask, what are you still doing here Ms.(Y/N)?" Reiji thought that she would leave at once, since he knew he made her uncomfortable whenever he's around.

(Y/N) hummed,
"Waiting for you to finish, so I could close up the school properly."

Reiji shook his head,
"As a gentleman I-"

"As the Kaichou, I should look out for the students in here. So you can't make me leave Reiji-san." She smiled at him.

Reiji sighed,
"Very well..." He stood up and walked to the door. .

"I'll be taking my leave Ms.(Y/N), I suspect Subaru had created another hole in the manor." He shook his head to himself and bowed in a butler-like manner at the female.

When (Y/N) had exited, Reiji had disappeared. She knew he teleported back at the manor and once more, she could imagine him scolding the brothers.

-------------------------------------------

(Y/N) was walking alone in the sidewalk when someone put their hand on her shoulder. Her instincts quickly kick in and she had managed to pin the figure on the ground.

She realized she pinned a rather huge figure and she looked up to see Yuma groaning in pain. (Y/N) quickly stood up,
"I'm sorry Yuma-san! My instincts kicked in and I didn't realize it was you!" She exclaimed trying to help Yuma up.

Yuma clutched his head,
"I'll have to remind myself not to approach you from behind." He grumbled.

(Y/N) smiled sheepishly at him, apologizing once more. She looked down and she saw the stuffs that had been drop by Yuma.

The girl blinked when she sees farming tools and small packs of seeds.

"What are these for Yuma-san? Are those materials needed for a school project?"

Yuma clicked his tongue and picked up the materials at the ground, the girl helped him to pick up all of them.

"These are for my farm." He confessed, turning away from her with a flustered look.

(Y/N) was surprised at first, she didn't expect a rebellious teen to own a farm.

"May I see your farm Yuma-san?" She smiled at him.

Yuma scoffed,
"Why should I?"

"Because you have no other choice or else I'll follow you home." She smiled once more.

"Tch, Fine."

On their way back to the Mukami Manor, (Y/N) asked the male on why he considered walking back to the manor instead of teleporting back.
He answered with a shrug stating that he wanted to kill time by walking.

When they arrived at the manor, Yuma opened the door and he shouted,
"Ruki, we have a guest here!"

Ruki immediately appeared while holding his book.

"What is it now Yuma?"

Yuma pushed (Y/N) from behind,
"Hakucho is here to check out my farm."

"Good evening Ruki-san, I hope I'm not intruding." She greeted and bowed lightly at him.

Ruki shook his head,
"I don't mind having you here Kaichou."

(Y/N) smiled sheepishly at him,
"Just call me (Y/N), we're not in the school grounds anyway."

The older Mukami nodded, and he disappeared once more.

Yuma grabbed one of (Y/N)'s arm and they teleported to his farm.
"So what do you think Hakucho?" He felt a bit conscious about showing his farm to the female.

(Y/N)'s (E/C) sparked and approached the pumpkins,
"This is awesome Yuma-san! I could tell that they're all healthy."

Yuma grinned at her comment,
"I did these all myself." He bragged, feeling proud of himself on expressing the girl.

"I knew I smelled a familiar scent."

(Y/N) turned to the voice and she saw Kou smiling at her.

"Did you come to visit me, Chesha neko-chan?~"

(Y/N) ignored his question,
"Good evening, Kou-san."

The idol pouted when she ignored his question then he smirked,
"I see that Yuma has shown the farm to you. That's a first, he never showed his farm to anyone except for us of course."

"Oh really?"

Yuma grew flustered,
"W-Well she caught me, and she asked to show her my farm!" He defend himself causing Kou to chuckle,
"Whatever you say Yuma~"

Suddenly, Ruki appeared.

"Are you going to have dinner with us (Y/N)?"

The female shook her head and smiled sheepishly,
"I don't want to intrude you further Ruki-san."

Kou whined,
"Stay here longer, Chesha neko-chan! Ruki won't mind at all if you join us for dinner."

Yuma nodded in agreement,
"Come on Hakucho, join us for dinner."

(Y/N) thought for a moment then she said,
"Well... If you say so. But Ruki-san is the head of the manor, I think the decision lies with him."

The two males faced Ruki, they're hoping he would say yes.

Ruki sighed,
"Very well, since Yuma and Kou wants you to stay longer, I won't have a problem with it."

The two males grinned at each other and did a high-five together. (Y/N) noticed this action and she realized the Mukami brothers are closer to each other than the Sakamaki's.

-------------------------------------------

The four of them have seated in the dining room and (Y/N) wondered where Ruki is. Azusa poked the girl,
"Good evening... (Y/N)-chan."

(Y/N) smiled at him,
"Good evening to you too Azusa-san."

The masochistic male blinked blankly at her,
"I smelled... your scent from here before... What are you doing here...
(Y/N)-chan?"

"Yuma-san showed me his farm and I guess Kou-san and hr wanted me to stay here longer so I'm having dinner here."

Azusa nodded blankly, Yuma grabbed a piece of bread from the table, he ate it in one huge bite. (Y/N) and Kou engaged into a light conversation with Yuma joining in while eating another bread.

Ruki arrived with plates of food then he handed every single plate to them, including (Y/N). The girl got creamy mushroom soup as her dinner.

"Thank you for the food Ruki-san." She smiled at himm

The older Mukami nodded in response and he sat at his place. He was also having creamy soup for dinner. Yuma sipped his soup while making slurping noises. Kou dipped the pieces of bread in his soup and he popped it back in his mouth.

Azusa ate quietly sipping little of his soup. Yuma frowned at Azusa's behavior, he took a bread and hand it to him.

"You should eat more Azusa."

The younger Mukami nodded blankly without saying anything. (Y/N) noticed the difference on having dinners in both of the households. The Sakamaki's had an intense silence between them while the Mukami's held a lighter aura and they all are close towards each other.

(Y/N) smiled to herself then she tasted the soup while Ruki watched her closely, waiting for her comment.

"This is really good Ruki-san!" She complimented.

Ruki showed a small smile which is barely noticeable on his face. Before he could say anything Yuma cut in.

"Ruki is the one who made this (Y/N), he's the one who always cook dinner for us."

The girl was surprised once more,
"You must be a really good cook Ruki-san, and I'm happy to try out one of your foods." She smiled at him.

"I've been interested in cooking, so I tried it out." He stated and resumed to his meal.

-------------------------------------------

After dinner, (Y/N) bid the Mukami's a farewell. At first, Kou and Yuma didn't want her to leave but she managed to persuade them by telling them they could see each other at school tomorrow.

Azusa stayed quiet most of the times and Ruki busied himself reading his book which left Yuma and Kou entertaining her.

(Y/N) smiled to herself on the way back to her mansion. She was happy to see them all getting along unlike the Sakamaki's who would immediately snap back at each other.

The girl stopped walking and faced the bat who has been following her for days,
"I know this is odd speaking to a bat, but you're the same bat who has been following me these days."

The bat, black as the night flew down right at her.

"It seems you caught us." An unfamiliar voice said to the girl and (Y/N) let her guard up glaring at the figure who had appeared before her.

"Who are you?"

The figure didn't say anything and he snapped his fingers making the bat familiar disappear. He revealed himself showing his white hair and sharp golden eyes, beside him is the male (Y/N) recognized.

"My name is Carla Tsukinami, you do recognized my younger brother, Shin."

The younger Tsukinami smirked, he felt proud that his older brother is here with him, he knew the girl wouldn't last a chance with his brother.

(Y/N) still held her guard up,
"What do you want? I have no business with you two."

Shin was about to speak when Carla spoke,
"I knew I recognized that (E/C) eyes, you're the daughter of Terra Koizumi."

The girl widened her eyes at the mention of her mother's name.

"How did you know my mother?"

Carla didn't say anything else and Shin said,
"If you want answers, you have to fight nii-san!"

(Y/N) ignored him then she said bitterly,
"I don't care how did you know my mother or not, but I'm taking my leave. I don't want to be caught up in another mess."

She was about to take a step when Carla spoke again,
"Then you do know what kind of sickness did she die."

(Y/N) stopped and looked back at Carla who have a small smirk on his face.

"You don't know what kind of sickness Terra died with?"

(Y/N) didn't answer and Carla immediately knew that the girl didn't know what kind of sickness her mother died in.

"Like what Shin said, if you want answers, you have to fight me." He stated.

(Y/N) clenched her hands, she really wanted to know the answer. The doctors that tried to treat her didn't know what type of sickness she had.

"Fine, I'll fight you. But I want to change our location, I don't want innocent people to get hurt."

Shin clicked his tongue,
"How pathetic." He tried to imitate (Y/N)'s voice,
"I don't want to get people hurt!" He mocked causing (Y/N) to smile at him,
"Remember you lost, Shin-san."

He was about to snap at her when Carla teleported the three of them in a wide forest.

"We will fight here."

(Y/N) prepared herself, even though Shin is a first-blood, she wouldn't underestimate Carla. She sensed a different aura from him. Also she couldn't help but worry about her abilities, overusing it may endanger her life.
