Kira's POV:
While sitting outside from the porch in the backyard, I pull out a small pack of cigarettes from my pocket and took a cigarette to my mouth. Then I light it up with a lighter and inhale it without a single care. I know that smoking isn't healthy for you, but in my perspective, I just couldn't help it. I been like this I was a kid, and it sucks...

Before I met Jamie and the others, my life was nothing, but hell. My dad would always beating me up, telling me that I was nothing, blaming me for "killing my mom" or "taking her away from him". I don't even remember what she looks like nor what kind of person was she before she died from giving birth to me. I never knew what love was like. All I knew was pain and suffering. It was like hell, I distanced myself from other kids, I screamed at teachers, and I beat up the principal once. But soon my life gets even worst by the time I entered sixth grade, I hang out with the wrong crowd where I smoke weed everyday, ditching classes, and I cause a lot of fights in school. It lend to a point where two classmates of mine, Jamie and Natalie started to get worried about me, but I just pretend to not care and act like everything's fine. And that's when my life changes when I slowly became friends with them. Then years later, I stop taking drugs and stay out of trouble because of Jamie and Natalie. My dad lost custody of me, but I'm happily living with her along with Natalie and Chloe. However, I still smoke but this time it's cigarettes cuz I need it to ease my anxiety and my low self esteem. Hell, I'm still getting fucking nightmares of my dad beating me, yelling at me, cussing at me. Stupid asshole of a dad.

As I relax in the porch, I took out the cigarette and blew out a hint of smoke from my mouth. Soon I sighed and lean my head to my right palm with a bored expression on my face.

Jesus, can this night get any worst?

I thought while gazing at the night sky until I caught the attention of three rose bushes in different colors underneath the porch. One are yellow, two are blue, and three are light pink. I giggled softly at the sight of the roses with a small grin.

"Well aren't you the romantic type." I remarked while grinning at the fact that Ayesha has been gardening for a long time with her grandmother. But damn I never knew that Ayesha loves planting flowers as I do; particularly when it comes to my favorite flower. I know that sounds corny, but I love looking at roses and I find them pretty cool. Soon I heard a loud groan nearby.

"Ugh why does it smells bad all of the sudden?" He grumbled as I spun my head to see that white haired vampire laying on top of the roof. I blink twice before I let out a sigh and fold my arms.

"What do you want Subaru?" I asked calmly.

"That was suppose to be my question mortal. Why are you smoking out here?" He bluntly asked.

"Why do you care?" I bluntly retorted with a blank look as I drop the cigarette and stomped it on the ground.

"Tch." He clicks his tongue and turns his back on me which I'm not that surprised at all. However there's one question that I didn't get. How did the Sakamakis get to our world? Why are they here? I better ask him right now.

"Hey."

"What?"

"Why are you guys here?" I asked curiously.

"Why should I tell you that?" He retorts

"Cuz I'm curious." I retorted back.

"Then forget it and get lost." He coldly spat which I groan in response but soon an idea popped into my mind and I crept a smirk.

" *sighs* Oh well then, I guess I'll be going back inside the house. Enjoy your nap TSUNBARU." I remarked with a smirk while pretending to walk back to the house and that quickly triggered him as he gets up and jumps from the rooftop where he lands in front of the door and stand up with a glare.

"Fine I'll tell you, but only if you stop calling me that." He advised me which I made a salute with two fingers to him.

"Gotcha."

But I make no promises.

I thought sneakily as Subaru sighed and stuffed his hands underneath his pockets.

"The reason why we're here...is because of Reiji. He was working on an experiment in his room and that's when everything happened. The explosion causes us to be transported to this strange world and that's when we met you guys." He explained as I put my hand in my chin while thinking.

"That makes sense, but why attend our school?" I asked curiously as Subaru sighed once again.

"Reiji wanted us to blend in human society while he works on a portal that will takes us back to our world. So Reiji put us into a barrier ability so no one in our school will detect our vampiric species, but that went backfired when you and your friends figured out our vampire identities." He explains once more as he turns his head away.

"Huh that's why you and the guys went to our world..." I muttered as I turn around feeling that my questions are answered for now.

"Well thanks for telling me all this, I'm heading out now. See ya." I told him as I waved at him, but just as I was about to go back inside, I heard Subaru lightly gasped for some reason.

"Those roses..."

"Hm?" I stopped and turns around when he mentions the rose bushes.

"What about them?" I asked curiously as I could see him gripping his fists so tightly and that's when I immediately recognized something that I watched from Diabolik Lovers. Subaru has a strained relationship with his mom, I remembered that in the show he use to grow roses for his mom while she's sick. It sounded really sweet, but at the same time it's quite heartbreaking. His backstory actually reminded me when I was a kid, both of us were abused by our parents but with different reasons. My dad took his anger out of me because of my mom died from birth, and his mom took her anger out of him because she's mentally sick and the fact that his father did some messed up things to her. It's quite fucked up, but really sad. No wonder why he's so angry and alone all the time.

Feeling sorry for him, I turn around and slowly approach him.

"Umm...Subaru...." I attempt to reach out to him, but that didn't go too well when I smack my hand away and turn to me with an harsh glare.

"Stay the hell away from me! If you step one step closer, I'm going to destroy you!" He yelled at me which had me shivering a bit as I took a few steps back from him, but I remain calm.

"Subaru ch-"

"Shut up!" He cuts me off as he kept on glaring at me.

"Not only that I'm going to break your body, but your mind as well!" He snarled as he grab my shirt and slam me against the porch so loud that Beth,  Natalie, and Ayato heard the loud thump from outside when Natalie quickly opens the door.

"What are do-" Just before Natalie says anything, I put a hand to her to indicate her and the others to let me do the talking while staring intently at Subaru.

"Subaru...what are you so afraid of? You think this is going to help you?" I asked sternly.

"What do you know?! Why are you asking me this?!" He snapped at me.

"Oi Subaru, that's enough!" Ayato shouted at him.

"You shut up!" He retorted as he turns back to me where he stares at me intently for a minute.

"...Why?...Just why?..." He muttered which had me confused by what he said.

What does mean why?

I thought confusingly while being pinned down against the porch by Subaru. As I remained quiet, Subaru loses his patience and gently lets go of me. He turns his back on me and walks away without saying a word. Feeling unanswered, I lean off the porch and tried to call him out.

"Wait Subaru-" Just before I tried to ask him again, he opens the door and slams it without giving me a chance to say anything. Ayato then clicked his tongue in annoyance.

"Asshole." He grumbled with his arms crossed not really giving a damn about his brother cuz he's very irritated right now. As soon as he left, I was left confused yet dumbfounded by what just happened.

What the hell is with him? What was he trying to say a minute ago?

I thought curiously while thoughts are starting to run through my mind. Beth and Natalie then came over and comfort me.

"Are you okay Kira?" Natalie asked with a worried look while stroking my back gently.

"Yeah..." I replied while looking down at the floor with a conflicted look.

"Did he hurt you?" Beth asked as I lightly shook my head to her.

"Nah he didn't, I'm fine." I reassured them as Beth lets out a groan and cross her arms.

"Geez that guy needs to cool down." She grumbled with a scowl.

"Heh he doesn't, he's always been like this since forever." Ayato bluntly retorts as Natalie sighs.

"Well what can you do? I mean he is Subaru Sakamaki after all, he'll do anything to take his anger out of things that are out of proportion..." She stated.

"I really hate saying this, but I have to agree with you two-face." He bluntly agreed.

"Yup." Beth chimed in, but for me, I'm still confused on what he was trying to say. So what was that all about? What was Subaru thinking? What was he so afraid of?

And I thought this night was going to be a pain in the ass, but...damn, this night is gonna get even more complicated...

I thought to myself while thinking about what's going to happen with my friends tonight.
