章節 431: Haunted By Change
-----Yui's POV
After reuniting with mom, she unfortunately had to return back home with the help of Mai. Alice also decided that it was safe enough to return, leaving me with practically no one to talk to for the longest time.
Selene: "Mmm?"
But just then, the first person to wake up was Selene, who's still cuddled up on Kaede's lap. Her scarlet red eyes, the exact same as Kaede's, beams straight towards me as I return her gaze with a smile.
Yui: "Good morning."
Selene: "G-good morning... Ah! Sister! Wake up!"
Kaede: "Mmmm..."
Selene tries to wake up Kaede, only to be met with a groan.
Selene: "Come on~ It's Yui."
Kaede: "Eh?"
But right at the mention of my name, Kaede's eyes quickly opened up as she immediately looked my way. Her eyes filled with worry as Selene made room in order for Kaede to stand up from the floor.
Kaede: "Yui? Are you-"
Yui: "Yes. I'm back. I remember everything."
Kaede: "!"
In a blink of an eye, I felt my body get pulled into yet another hug. She moved so fast, almost as if she teleported, but I don't let that bother me as I gently wrap my arms around her as well.
Kaede: "Thank god..."
Yui: "You did well, Kaede."
Kaede: "I'm sorry it took so long."
Yui: "Hey, don't go saying that as well. It's bad enough having to deal with Mai."
Kaede: "Pfft. Seems like I missed out on a bunch while I was asleep."
Yui: "Mm..."
I'm still thinking back on the topic before. How my relationships in this world being all screwed up. With me now being around the same age as mom and Alice, Luna not even being born yet, I'm already this far in age. Really makes me think whether being human is that great or not. Just makes me all the more envious of Kaede...
Kaede: "Yui?"
Looking over Kaede's shoulder as we hug, I once again look over to Fleur and Faye who's still unconscious. They'll soon wake up as vampires, securing a family for Kaede. The same would go for Mell when she eventually comes into the world... Meanwhile, I'll be leaving this world a lot sooner than if I was originally reborn here...
Kaede: "What's wrong?"
It was then that Kaede pulled back to look into my eyes. Her eyes still filled with worry, but I can't find it in me to lie and say everything's okay... Instead-
Yui: "...I want to be like you."
Kaede: "..."
I wasn't meant to say those words, yet they manage to escape my mouth with a mumble. Maybe if Kaede was human she wouldn't have been able to hear, but looking at her face right now, it's clear that she definitely heard me.
Kaede: "You don't want to be like me, Yui."
Yui: "..."
Yeah... Exactly like I thought. She doesn't want me to live her life. But I can't help but wonder if that's truly what she wants. Wouldn't she be all for the idea of turning me into a vampire if it means that we'll be together for longer? For eternity even?
Kaede: "I don't want to have you feel the pain of losing your loved ones. Your parents, your friends. I've had plenty of time, well over a decade to come to terms with my life. But even so, I'd never wish this upon you."
Yui: "Yet you turned Fleur and Faye into a vampire? And you'll probably do the same for Mell."
Kaede: "You understand that their situations are different. Fleur's life was coming to an end, and Faye didn't want to leave her behind."
Yui: "Even still!"
I grab hold of Kaede's shoulder with as much force as I could. I know it's wrong of me to say all of this, bringing up this topic when she just woke up, but I just can't stand the idea of having to leave Kaede eventually. I know she's right. What I'm asking for is incredibly selfish. The only work around would be if Kaede also turned all of my loved ones into a vampire as well, but then I'd be forcing all of this onto them. But even still.
Yui: "I... I want you to turn me into a vampire."
I finally put it into words, clear and simple.
Kaede: "...I think we need to hurry back for school."
Yui: "..."
Kaede: "I'll be back sis. Keep an eye on those two for me, okay?"
Selene: "Mhmm!"
She didn't say yes, but she also didn't say no... I guess this is good enough. At least now it'll be on Kaede's mind and we could talk about it another time, but she's right, it's morning here, so I can only imagine that it must be morning back in the other world as well.
Selene: "Was nice seeing you, Yui~"
Yui: "Mm. I'll see you soon."
.....
...
When we returned, the sun was just about to rise as Kaede quickly carried me back all the way until we reached my window. It was still open from before, making it easy for Kaede and I to slip inside quietly. We didn't talk once during the entire flight, but now that we're back in my room, I can't seem to let go of Kaede.
Yui: "Are you going back there?"
Kaede: "Yes... I need to make sure that I'm there when Fleur and Faye wake up."
Yui: "...I see."
Kaede: "Don't worry, I'll come back once they wake up."
Yui: "..."
If I was a vampire, I could fly over to the cave and use my mana to activate the crest. Kaede wouldn't need to act as a taxi. I'm sure it'd make her life a lot easier.
Kaede: "We'll... We'll talk about it later, okay?"
Yui: "Mm... Okay."
I guess she figured out what was on my mind. All my life I've been told how easy I am to read, so it doesn't come as too much of a surprise. But it was then that I felt something soft press up against my lips, breaking me out of my thoughts. And not a moment later, Kaede parts her lips from mine as our eyes lock on with one another.
Kaede: "Welcome back, hehe."
Maybe this is my chance... Words might not be enough to convince Kaede, but maybe if I show her how much I care, then maybe when we talk later, she might reconsider. My body already moved on it's own as I return her kiss with another, wrapping my arms around her back, pulling her deep into the kiss.
Kaede: "Yu-i."
Not yet... More. I need her to understand it. With that thought in mind, I gently prod at her lips with my tongue, until she finally opened her mouth, letting me inside. It doesn't take long for our kiss to grow more heated with passion after that as our tongues soon began to dance with one another. It might actually be more accurate to say that I'm in control of it, as Kaede's simply following along with what I'm doing. It's honestly a bit annoying.
Kaede: "!"
I end up pushing her back onto the bed as I refuse to break away from the kiss while I lay on top of her. The wind blowing from the open window, pushing the curtains aside, shining light into the room periodically, illuminating Kaede's face before me.
Kaede: "Pah~"
I end up breaking the kiss for a moment, letting us catch our breaths as Kaede pants under me. The girl that always shined brightly, surpassing everyone's expectations. A girl living in a world unknown to me. We might be this close together, but that's simply not true. One day, I'll leave this world, leaving Kaede behind. Is that really the future she wants?
Kaede: "Yui...!"
I kiss her once more, our hands naturally finding each other as we interlock our fingers as we continue our kiss. I want to see the world she does, I want to shine with her. What's the point of being human when we can live like a vampire? Being able to live longer, experience new heights that humans could only dream of achieving. Maybe I'd even turn my parents and Luna into a vampire if I got the chance. I'm sure they'd be open to the idea. These thoughts spiral in my mind as I greedily feast on Kaede's saliva, desperately wrapping my tongue around hers as our hands squeeze with one another.
