Black Roses [Tetsuya] (18+ if not don't read kthx<3)

Tetsu stared up at the ceiling still, feeling his heart drop to the floor when Ryuu left. He didn't know what to do, he didn't know what to feel. He felt guilty, and angry. But also upset and hurt. These emotions were playing evenly on his shoulders as he felt tears begin to well up in his eyes. He remembered Ryuu's words this morning. The hurtful things he had said. He turned around, fists clenched as the anger fell on him like a ton of lead. He let out a furious cry as he smashed his fist into the counter before he burst out into more sobs. His body twitched as all that instant anger drained out and was replaced with sorrow.

Ryuu laid in bed, still crying. He stared at the wall, until he heard a noise in the kitchen, and Tetsu's crying. "Tetsu?" he said as he quickly got out of bed. He didn't care that his face was tearstreaked, and that tears kept running down. He moved to the kitchen quickly, seeing Tetsu, crying. Ryuu stood, as he noticed a dent in the counter. He guessed that was what he heard the noise from--Tetsu punching the counter. He ran over to Tetsu, and hugged him behind. He didn't want to let go of Tetsu, and hugged him even tighter.

Tetsu could hear the door open again, and he quickly held back a loud sob. He heard footsteps, then Ryuu enter the kitchen. He didn't say anything, nor did he turn to look at him. He felt Ryuu hug him tightly from behind and he tensed up lightly before he relaxed. He held back a few sobs as he took in a deep, shaky breath. He closed his eyes tight, before he quickly spun around fell to his knees. He grabbed Ryuu in his arms, pulling him into an extremely tight hug. "Oh, Ryuu!" He cried, burying his face into his chest as he gripped the fabric of his shirt. "This is all my fault, I'm so sorry... I never should have left you..." He sobbed, nearly choking as he tried to breath. He hadn't cried this hard for as long as he could remember.

Ryuu was suprised when Tetsu had spun around and hugged Ryuu tightly. "No it's not, don't worry about it." he said soothingly as he ruffled Tetsu's hair with his hand. "It's all right," he assured as he bent down a bit, to kiss Tetsu on his cheek. "No matter what you do, I'll still love you, no matter what." he smiled gently, as he nuzzled Tetsu's neck.

Tetsu fought back more tears, clenching the fabric of Ryuu's shirt in his fists. But I am worrying about it. He thought to himself as he held him. Moments passed, and Tetsu finally calmed down enough to pull away. He looked at Ryuu's shoulder. His shirt was soaked with tears. He frowned immediately. "Sorry," He whispered, then stood up. He didn't know if he should call his friend about Matsura, or if he should just wait until someone else found her...

"Tetsu.. you need to relax." Ryuu said firmly as Tetsu got up. "Here, follow me," he said as he pulled Tetsu's hands, bringing him to his room. As he brought Tetsu inside, he led him too his bed, and casually flipped the pillow over, having noticed one side of it was drenched in his very own tears not too long ago. He helped Tetsu into his bed, and then stood there. He hesitated, then climbed into bed with Tetsu. "Now sleep," he said softly, as he snuggled into Tetsu's chest, trying to sleep as well. He didn't expect things to happen this way. He clutched onto Tetsu's side, as he burrowed his head into Tetsu's chest more, trying to be comfortable.

Tetsu could hardly believe this. As he was laid down, he automatically put on a sour expression. "Sleep? I can't sleep, Ryuu. I just saw you practically eat my friend," He muttered, running his fingers through Ryuu's hair. His heart was pumping quickly and his head was pounding. He had nearly forgotten about his headache, but now he felt as if he was being beaten with a hammer. He closed his eyes tight, hoping he would fall asleep or something.

Ryuu sighed, a bit annoyed. "I know, I know. I'm sorry, I never knew. When I'm really thirsty like I was earlier, I don't care about anything other than getting blood." He rolled over, turning his back to Tetsu now. "You should know this, I am a vampire after all.." The way Tetsu told him that he ate his friend made Ryuu feel even more worse. "I'm suprised you weren't as angry as I thought. I expected you to try to kill me or something.." he said as he played with the longest strands of his hair. "We should go to the funeral also.. if you don't mind me, the murderer, coming along of course."

Tetsu covered his ears, burying his face into the pillow. He hated when Ryuu talked to him like this. His tone was just so cold and hostile. He shrunk underneath the blankets, feeling tears well up in his red eyes as sorrow pulled at him. If Ryuu was going to act like this, he truly did feel alone. He closed his eyes, laying there quietly. The only sounds were coming from him sobbing softly into his hands. He felt pathetic, like him and Ryuu had switched positions. But Ryuu defiantly wasn't being as nice as he had been. Now he was the one crying, the one who was lost in a cold, frozen meadow. Alone, with no one. What did he have now? His only purpose in the world had been to hunt vampires, but after he met Ryuu, things changed. Tetsu changed. Now that his purpose was gone, what did he have left now? Ryuu seemingly didn't seem to caring at the moment, so for the first time since childhood, he felt truly naked, stripped of his identity. Tetsuya the Vampire Hunter. That didn't apply to him anymore, it sounded strange, weird. Unfamiliar.

Ryuu laid there quietly as Tetsu began crying again. Frustration began to fill his mind. Why was Tetsu being so sensitive over everything? Why was Tetsu making it seem like he(Ryuu) was the guilty one? Or was he(Ryuu) the one who was being insensitive? Maybe it was because this lady was very important to him? What was she to him? Ryuu thought feeling a bit of envious rage. Maybe Ryuu just lost emotion when it came to death. He already killed many humans in the past, and had seen his parents killed..by Tetsu. Ryuu felt a jolt of pain in his chest. He was lying next to the one who killed his own parents, in bed. Maybe it would be best if that man died too. Ryuu heard a woman say in a sickly sweet tone of voice. No.. Ryuu thought. He gritted his teeth, trying to calm down, as he noticed he was gripping the pillow he was using harshly, making holes into it. He sighed and kept his back to Tetsu. He's just using you, letting you completely let your guard down, making him seem the innocent one..until he lays his fingers on you.. and kills you. He heard the sickly sweet voice whisper in his mind. Ryuu shook his head, trying to make that woman's voice disappear. What if she was right? Maybe this was all an act of Tetsu's? His mind became paranoid, as he trembled at the thought of lying so close to him. His heart swelled up with rage, and hatred, and his mind was whirling with questions and the woman's sickly sweet voice whispering, Kill him..kill him.. over and over. He was clenching his fists tightly.. and then sighed, allowing himself to breathe. He did not know what to think anymore. He would find out in the end though.

Tetsu didn't say anything after that. He took the time to calm down, realizing he was being ridiculous. After what seemed like hours, he rolled over and faced Ryuu, who was still facing the other way. He frowned, then reached his hand up and touched his shoulder. "Ryuu?" He whispered, his voice hoarse. He didn't want Ryuu to be upset, he didn't want today to come between their relationship. But if Ryuu was really that mad, he would have left already.

Ryuu flinched in reaction as Tetsu touched his shoulder. "Y-yeah?" he said staring at the wall. He breathed quickly, still startled from Tetsu's touch. It was useless to be so paranoid, to think of such things.. But still.. Ryuu rolled over and climbed on top of Tetsu. "What is it?" he said hesitantly.

Tetsu was surprised as Ryuu suddenly climbed on top of him. He hardly even expected Ryuu to do anything, not to mention this. Tetsu looked up at him, blinking stupidly for a moment before he smiled softly. He reached up, then laid his hand on his cheek. "Hi," He whispered softly, stroking his cheek bone with his thumb soothingly.

Ryuu's face turned a deep shade of pink. No one else but Tetsu could make him feel this way. No one.. He smiled back at Tetsu; still blushing. "You're mine." he said blushing even harder, as he suddenlty bent over, giving a quick kiss to Tetsu's lips.

Tetsu looked up at him. He was still surprised by Ryuu's reaction. He smiled however, and returned the tender kiss. It felt so strange, kissing Ryuu's lips after what seemed like so long. He pulled Ryuu so he was laying down, then wrapped his arms around him. He closed his eyes, pressing his face into his black hair, inhaling his gentle scent. He was going to take advantage of his good mood, hoping they would work things out.

Ryuu smiled to himself, as he was pulled into Tetsu's arms. Earlier, there was complete tension and drama between them both. Now he was relieved to be back into Tetsu's comforting arms. He snuggled against Ryuu, feeling elated. He wanted nothing bad to happen between them again. He then remembered what almost happened on the day before Tetsu went out with friends and got drunk. His face turned scarlet red, as he clung onto Tetsu's arms, making sure to hide his face.

Tetsu couldn't believe the relief pumping through his body as Ryuu accepted his embrace. He let out a content sigh, pulling the blankets over them both, then closing his eyes. He didn't care that they were both fully dressed right now, he wanted to sleep. And Ryuu always seemed to be in the mood for sleep, so he was sure Ryuu was up for it as well. He held him tightly, kissing his forehead as he closed his eyes and tried to sleep.

Ryuu smiled softy, as he fell into a deep sleep in Tetsu's arms.

A few days later..

Ryuu woke up to see Tetsu not in bed. He got out of bed, just in boxers and a black shirt. He began making the bed, then suddenly as he breathed, he smelled an aroma coming from the kitchen. The aroma smelled like food, preferably like pancakes and toast. He inhaled it, smiling a bit. He wondered if Tetsu made some for him, even if he never felt hungry for human food. He walked outside of Tetsu's room, and down the hallway, making his way toward the kitchen. As he stepped into the kitchen, he saw Tetsu's familiar bedhead. "Hey Tetsu--" Ryuu was about to say until his face turned scarlet red. He looked down lower, noticing what Tetsu was wearing. Tetsu was in an apron......naked. "T-T-T-Tetsu?! W-wha-whaat are you doing.. in an apron...naked?!" he said shocked, as his face was still red from embarrassment.

Tetsu couldn't believe what he was doing, that he was standing here like this. That he would go to these lengths to cheer Ryuu up. He had been gloomy the last few days, and wanted to see what doing this would make him act. He heard Ryuu, and he automatically smirked. He turned around, putting on the sexiest face he could manage. "Good morning," He whispered seductively, smiling at him.

"T-Tetsu.." Ryuu said still embarrassed. He tried to contain his laughs, as Tetsu said 'Good Morning' with a silly face on. He tried to not let his eyes linger on the naked Tetsu. He then sat down at the table and said boldly, "Tetsu-channn, would you mind making me eggs, sunny side up?" He giggled to himself. Even if Tetsu was naked and in only an apron, it was even more funnier that the apron Tetsu wore was baby pink and with frilly designs, and ruffles on the edges. He wondered what Tetsu's reaction would be if he was the one who was naked and who was wearing the apron? Maybe he'd finally let him cook, he thought, chuckling to himself.

Tetsu could tell that Ryuu was trying to hide his reaction. He sighed to himself, then did as he requested, trying to turn his back to him as little as possible. He cracked the eggs in the pan then walked over to the chair where Ryuu was sitting. He sat on his lap, folding his legs and wrapping his arms around his neck. "How was your sleep?" He asked, batting his lashes at him. He felt ridiculous, but found this amusing.

Ryuu felt Tetsu's heavy weight as he sat on him. Even though it was a bit awkward to have a Tetsu sit on with him with nothing else on but an apron, he was entertained by him. "Lousy, that I couldn't wake up with you," he smiled casually, flipping his hair. "Tetsu-channn," he teased, sniggering. He played with Tetsu's hair, twirling it with his finger. He then took Tetsu's hand and kissed it, whispering, "And how was your night, lovely?" He enjoyed teasing him, it was as if they were switching roles somewhat.

Tetsu tried his best to suppress his flustered expression. He giggled, then kissed Ryuu's lips playfully. "Good," He whispered, "I dreamt of you," His tone was light and suggestive as he trailed his lips over to Ryuu's ear. He played with the lobe lightly between his lips, finding the fuzzy texture odd, but pleasant. He felt ridiculous like this, being teased. But it was enjoyable, and found Ryuu's actions amusing.

Ryuu grinned his he nuzzled Tetsu's neck. He paused, as his chest hurt a bit as he had nuzzled Tetsu's neck. Even though Ryuu wanted to continue to tease Tetsu, he was thirsty. "Tetsu..I need to feed," He said softly, looking at Tetsu. He wondered how Tetsu felt about every time he had drink his blood.

Tetsu blinked, then understood what he meant. He sighed. God damn, why now? He muttered to himself, then nodded. He tilted his head to the side lightly then pulled the tensor bandages from his neck, revealing the sickly puncture wounds. He pulled his hair out of the way and closed his eyes, wrapping his arms around Ryuu's neck.
