25 Recollecting the past

"Ai, I won't let you sleep tonight. Tonight, you are mine," Kazu-kun said with his t-shirt off pushing me down on the bed.

I could feel my face heat up due to this change in his actions. I could not move but it was more like I did not want to move. I was wearing my favorite dress which I always wanted to wear for Kazu-kun and after seeing it, he just pushed me down on the bed. His hand went over to my inner thighs and started caressing them.

"Ahh~ Kazu-kun, it feels so good," I said feeling my body jolt and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"I love you Ai," he said and brought his face down.

As he was coming down, the distance between our faces and our lips started to decrease gradually, and as they were finally able to meet...

My eyes opened.

I felt something soft and warm on my body and a very familiar smell entered my nose. I could easily tell whose smell it was. It was the smell of my beloved, Kazu-kun.

"Mhm, good morning Kazu-kun," I said while still getting my eyes used to the light in the room. It was a bit too bright for early morning.

My senses properly come back to me and I felt the thing I was hugging was too soft and fragile to be Kazu-kun but it still had his smell. Properly looking, I see that it was his pillow that I had in my arms and then a mischievous smile crept on my face. Well, he is not around so don't mind if I do.

I buried my face in his pillow and started sniffing it. Ahh, there was that smell that I love too much. Just smelling it makes my heart flutter and my face heat up. No matter how much I smell it I just cannot get enough of this smell. Ahh~ I love it so much.

"Kazu-kun, Kazu-kun, Kazu-kun, Kazu-kun, Kazu-kun, Kazu-kun."

I want to smell Kazu-kun's smell more, I want to feel him more, I want to hug him more, I want to kiss him more, and I want him to stay mine and mine alone.

Now that I think about it, my dream was stopped at the best moment, unfortunately. What to do?

Thinking that, my eyes fell on the pillow I had buried my face in it and a mischievous smile formed on my face yet again. This could do. Yes, it can actually do. I picked up the pillow and lie down on my back raising it above me facing down.

"Kazu-kun, can we continued from where we left off?" I asked being a little shy as always.

"Sure Ai, anything for you," I said mimicking his voice. "Close your eyes and I will show you another different world. A world where only we both reside in."

"Mhm."

I brought the pillow down slowly and was readied my lips.

"Ai," I said in Kazu-kun's voice.

"Kazu-kun."

"Ai."

"Kazu-kun."

"Ai can you stop flirting with my pillows?"

Wait, this was not part of the dialogue I had in my mind and this voice was not...done...by...meeeeeeeeeee! Kazu-kun is here!

I looked at him and he was standing at the doorway leaning next to the door frame with a smirk on his frame. My face heated up and I buried my face in his pillow. Kazu-kun saw me, he saw me doing that with his pillow. Ahh, what do I do? I cannot think anything, I am such an idiot. Don't look at me Kazu-kun, I am so embarrassed right now.

I turned around on my belly and started flapping my legs on the bed. I am so embarrassed right now that I can die but I cannot let that happen. Otherwise, some other girl will have Kazu-kun so I need to calm myself down. No, I cannot calm myself down. Kazu-kun saw me in such an embarrassing position I am sure it will creep him out.

"Just how adorable can you be?" he said completely betraying my expectations in a good way.

"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" I screamed muffling my voice with Kazu-kun's pillow. It still had his smell.

Just when I was trying to calm myself down he has to say something like this. I might just faint if he did another attack like this. Ahh, it is his fault for being like this and I cannot help but love him.

"Itsh Kazhu-khun'sh faut," I said muffling my voice.

"Yes, yes, I know it is always my fault like you have never done anything," he said sarcastically. "The bath is ready for you to use and I am making breakfast so make it quick. You love eating with me don't you?" he said the last part teasingly.

I just nodded my head from there I heard his footsteps getting fainter and fainter but I did not move and just lie down there. Now that I think about it, because of tomorrow's "excursion," I was really exhausted. The amount of blood I drank from Kazu-kun was just enough to heal my wound and nothing more than that. I don't want to drink too much of his blood and cause problems for him.

I finally got out of the bed and with my hair completely messed up, I made my way to the bathroom to brush and freshen up quickly. The clothes in the washing machine were no longer there meaning Kazu-kun already washed them. He just does all this work without even giving it a second thought while I remember how it was all just lying there and I remember to wash them when I go anywhere near Kazu-kun. When I marry him, I will keep him at home all the time and I will work and earn while he can be a house husband. I can only imagine it, me entering the house and Kazu-kun standing there with a smile on his face.

"Welcome back Ai, must have been a long day isn't it?" he said taking my bag.

"It sure has. But it was all fine, the clients were a pain in the ass so I shut them up quickly," I said loosening my shoulder.

"So what would you have first? Would you like a bath? Would like the dinner first or..." he walks forward and raises my chin warping his arm around my waist. "...perhaps me."

Kyaa! Yes, that is how things should be. My Kazu-kun will stay home and will wait for me to get back. Ahh, there I go again in my fantasies but I cannot help it. It is Kazu-kun's fault for being so kind and cool.

With these thoughts swirling around in my mind, I took off my clothes and looked at myself in the mirror. Unconsciously, I hugged myself with a little saddened expression on my face remembering my demon of the past. It was only for a split second before I changed my expression to the usual and went to take wash my body in the shower while I saw the water in the bathtub was already hot.

Once done with that, I dipped myself in the bath. It was the same water that Kazu-kun used and I know that since I was the one who asked for this. At first, he just looked at me weirdly but then agreed to it when I gave him the puppy dog eyes. Submerging myself in the water for some time, I remembered my past. The place I don't like visiting but also want to visit.

Weird right?

Since I was born, I was showered with love from my parents. My father was a 295 years old vampire when I was born and my mother was a well-renowned doctor. The story of both of them meeting was quite an interesting one honestly. A little too interesting that one would not believe that people like this could actually exist but my parents were never normal people. See me as an example, I am the product of that factory.

Like a horror movie, it was the night time and the clouds had left their tap open and forgotten to close it. It had been raining since the afternoon and most of the roads were filled with water. During that time, my mother was with her friends out on a vacation and they were coming back from Kyoto and on the highway, their car broke down. It was really late at night and no other vehicle could be seen on that road. The ones which went by just ignored them.

My mother was with three others of her friends and one of them was her ex-boyfriend with whom she talked again after four months on the trip.

They were looking for a way to find someone's help and even their phones were not working. There, in the shadows of the rain and the clouds stood a person looking at them from afar. His eyes were glowing red and his teeth were sharp as a knife. When one turns into a vampire, all their emotions become more intense being what are the seven deadly sins- envy, wrath, lust, pride, greed, gluttony, and even sloth.

I forgot to tell this to Kazu-kun, didn't I? Hehe.

His eyes fell on mom and you could say it was love at first sight but his reason for that was not really normal love. Just looking at mom his blood lust increased tenfold. He moved swiftly in the shadows and grabbed my mom from the group and ran away with her in one motion. It happened so quickly that no one could normally react.

That was how they met and then fell in love. Quite a weird story since dad told me that he had made mom his hostage for an entire month for no particular reason. He would just watch her do things and not let her go anywhere out of his sight.

When they got together, dad swore that he would never drink the blood of any human except for mom's or the ones from the blood bags that she brings home. We had two fridges, one for normal food and the other for human blood for me and dad. I did not drink much blood but often had that because dad would encourage me since he said it was for a "safer future".

I never understood why he said that but I would listen to him nonetheless. He would stay at home and learned how to cook human food and he was really good at it though he was a vampire. The food that he cooked was like the best food I have ever eaten. I still remembered when mom would come home late and even after dad's advice for me to go and sleep, we both waited for her to come home and have dinner with us. When she does not come home or had night shifts, we would just drink blood instead of having normal food.

I was a lot closer to dad than mom but that was mostly because of the fact that he would be at home the entire time. He had slick back white hair and red eyes with a muscular build. I always remember anyone seeing him and mistaking him for a famous model married to my mom. Mom had long black hair and emerald green eyes. No matter how much time had passed, I had never seen her angry at anyone. She always had that soft smile on her face with a gentle look in her eyes.

Dad used to tell me stories of his life and since he had lived almost three hundred years, he had a tone of them.

"You know Ai when I was a little boy, we lived in extreme poverty in Spain. We did not have enough money to even fill the stomachs of everyone in the family and it consisted of only my mother, father, and me. Then one day I saw this big tree and it was as big as the Tokyo tower," he said showing how big it was with his arms.

"Isn't it too big?" the two-year-old me said to him.

"It was and you know what thought I had at that time?" he asked me.

I pondered on the idea a little but could not come up with an answer.

"I thought if I climb the top of the tree and then fall down..." he said with a grin on his face. "...how many bones will I break?"

Not really knowing how dangerous it was, I giggled at his answer. We were both covered by a cover going across the bed and both our heads were popping out from one side.

"Then did you try it?" I asked curiously.

"I did try but then I remembered I don't know how to climb a tree so that was a failure," he said sighing.

"I bet now you could have easily done that," I said snuggling on his arm as he pats my head.

"Now, I can just get to the top in two jumps and fall down without getting myself hurt. Dad is a 297-year-old novice vampire and I will soon be a noble. Then dad will be even stronger than he already is. I will take you to Spain then and show you that tree if it would still be there," he said.

"What if it is not there?"

"Then you just got a nice vacation to Spain. You know how many people would love to go there?"

I shook my head.

"Neither do I. Hahahaha."

"Hehehehe."

He had a cheerful and charming personality. He hardly ever gets angry and the only time he did was when the other kids would talk about my mismatched eyes. Whenever that happened, dad would go out and then come back after some time. I never saw those kids ever again.
