(Risu pic)

risu: giotto!!!

*hugs*

giotto: look at you . You're bruised all over.

risu: its always like that.It will go away.Never mind.

giotto: don't be so rough. *pats head*

risu: hehe.I got used to it...so...

giotto: than try to change.I don't want to always see you in bruises.

alaude: you guys knew each other ?

giotto: alaude...its not like that.

alaude: its only a few weeks I didn't see you and her and this happens.

G: well...lets just say this girl is really cute.

Risu: hehe.Thank you.

G: aren't you the same? Dragging a girl on your back . She's in a really bad shape. What did you do to her. Seriously. Abuse her?

alaude: its not like that...she protected me.

risu: just leave her on the couch. She'll be fine.

alaude: no hospitalization?

risu: no need.Won't work anyway. Normally she would be able to regenerate by herself but this time...its too serious. She's going to die before her regeneration can save her.

giotto: there must be something we can do.

risu: cursed children...did you know we're also being called vampires? Thirst for blood...it makes us crazy. But we're able to hold it back in.

alaude: you want me to give her blood?

risu: it will quicken the regeneration speed.

G: can't she just drink her own blood.

risu: it doesn't work that way. Baka!!(idiot) But...if you do give her your blood I must remind you . She'll be craving for your blood and hence somehow be attached to you.

alaude: than... G...you do it.

G: what?!!! Don't throw me your mess.

risu: she smiled when she was your human shield isn't it?

giotto: alaude...she saved you. Shouldn't you save her too?

alaude pov:

why....why did you smile while you were being killed. Were you that willing to sacrifice for me?

I slit my wrist and rested it on her mouth as she sucked on it slowly and aggressively.

Suddenly she grabbed onto my shoulder and wanted to go for neck.

*bam!!!*

She pushed me to the wall.

nina:why did you that for!!!Risu !!!

Her tears stream down . What's going on?

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

alaude: what just happened?

risu: as I thought.*smirk* That silly girl has been holding back her thirst all along.

alaude: don't just smirk at me.

risu: Blood thirst is a natural the moment we were recreated as cursed children. But to want a certain blood...that would mean something else.

alaude: what have you done bitch.You just gave her a taste of the forbidden fruit didn't you.

risu: hehe.Kinda. The one of the reasons why nina wouldn't get close to you . She's afraid of hurting you. She's been stalking you, you know.

alaude: I realize that.

risu: nina....I think she likes you . Not just because your blood smells so good. But because she really likes you.

alaude: hmph.Did you get close to giotto because of his blood too?

risu: *shakes head* giotto...he's really nice.I never wanted his blood. He accepted me as who I am... I guess than the blood thing comes naturally.
