Chapter 8

  "Ehh?! The crazy Yuu already made her move? No way, what a shame!"

  Shun: Tch, so you were in this class too.

  He looked at me.

  Shun: I have no idea what you are talking about. I don't know you.

  Yuu: Don't play dumb. You're a real bloodsucker.

  Shun: What are you talking about? Are you mad?

  Yuu: You're a vampi—

  Shun: Hmph, what a bother. Teacher, where's my sit?

  Mr. Horikita: Let's see.

  The sleazy-looking Mr. Horikita looked around the classroom.

  Yuu: Here! Here! He can sit here!

  I pointed at one of the empty sits beside me. I admit I was excited more than normally. After all even though he was already a transfer student, he also had such traits as vampire and member of some foreign country's royalty. Is he a Ventrue or something?

  Shun: I don't need it. I'm fine with sitting somewhere else.

  Mr. Horikita: Hmm. Then, if you don't mind, I would like for you to sit here.

  Shun: ...

  The place teacher pointed at was exactly the place I recommended.

  Yuu: Yes!

  "Uwaah, at this point Shun is going to be infected by Yuu's craziness!"

  "We need to protect him!"

  I heard some random noises in the classroom again, but ignored them.

  Shun: Tch, fine. Whatever.

  He walked with disinterest and sat next to me.

  This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

  It was hard to believe. I mean, I had seen him before, but I never thought he'd actually be a transfer student.

  I felt a little awkward, but I was relieved to have gotten him to sit beside me.

  Mr. Horikita: Okay. Let's start the lecture.

  With those words, the lecture began.

  ***

  I couldn't focus on teacher's words as I stared at Shun.

  He seemed really calm, but there was a slight tenseness in his body language. He seemed to ignore me.

  He wasn't looking at anyone and was facing the window.

  Yuu: (He's acting strangely.)

  Shun: ...

  He didn't say anything.

  Yuu: (I'm sure he's thinking about something... Like, his next victim for tonight's meal?)

  I was so excited that I started trembling. I had to say something.

  Yuu: So, how is it? To be a vampire? Are you craving for blood, right now?

  I whispered to him.

  Shun: ...

  Yuu: Is it true that you can drink blood from humans?

  Yuu: Can sunlight kill you?

  Yuu: Hmm, but you were walking normally at the morning, so maybe not?

  Shun: ...

  Shun was silent.

  He just continued staring at the window.

  Yuu: Hmm.

  Suddenly, I felt a chill run through my body.

  Shun: ...

  His gaze suddenly shifted to me.

  My heart started to beat loudly.

  I couldn't look away from his red eyes. I was like hypnotized.

  Yuu: Uwaa?! Is it that?! It's 'Presence', right?

  Shun: ...

  Shun's face became expressionless.

  Shun: Hey. You are really annoying. Don't talk to me.

  Shun's voice sounded cold.

  Shun: I don't even want to hear your voice.

  He faced the windows again.

  Before I knew it that strange pressure or something disappeared, like it was never there.

  Yuu: Wha...?

  Was I imagining that?

  No definitely not!

  Yuu: Uwaah, so cool!

  Yuu: Hey, hey. Let me see more of your powers!

  I grabbed Shun's arm.

  Shun: ...

  Shun tried to pull his arm back, but I held on tight. He ignored me.

  Yuu: I can even let you drink some of my blood. I don't mind at all.

  Shun: ...

  Yuu: I wonder how those vampire fangs look like.

  Shun: ...

  Yuu: You know...

  I brought my face closer and lowered my voice.

  Yuu: ...It's a bit of a secret, but I'm actually a virgin. Don't vampires like virgins blood more? Like, it's sweeter or fresher or something. I'm not really sure.

  Oh, there was a reaction. Shun trembled and brought his hand towards his face for some reason.

  Shun: I don't care.

  Shun finally spoke.

  Yuu: What?

  Shun: Tch, I'm leaving.

  Shun stood up. And just like that left the classroom.
