Summary - Nino is an unknown being whereas Sho is an awfully normal one. Fate clashes in between and brings unnecesarry conflict. Nino declared himself as a servant, but could his master, Sho, understand?
Pairings- Sakumiya

“Sho-chan~” Nino would have brought my mirror down if he could as he continued calling me. “Sho-chan~ come on.. Sho-chan~!!”
I glanced over at Nino who was in my mirror from my scattered books. I couldn’t help but glare at the figure. Seriously, who is the world would pop out of a person’s window which is 3 stories high without making any sounds of warning.
“He would??” Nice try Nino.
“Hey~ can we stop this whole mind reading game and talk PROPERLY?” I shifted my glance from Nino to that idiot who’s comfortably sitting on MY bed who also nearly gave me a heart attack which might be my cause of death.
“You’re taking it to far Sho-chan..” too far? I give up.
My life is a complete mess. First I encounter a living spirit who looks like human but not human who is living in my necklace who calls me master but acts the other way round. Then later I encounter some air headed freak name Aiba Masaki who simply barged into my room through the window. Thank goodness my parents aren’t home or else I’m worse than dead.
“So shall we get into business?” He asked, smiling.
“Sure sure why not? Now you’re gonna tell me that I’m gonna die after meeting yours truly who is a vampire who died..err let’s see.. 1 thousand years ago?” I was quite shocked of my own sarcasm but I did not care less.
“Sho-chan~~ mou..” Nino sighed.
“You’re partially correct.” Mr.Vampire smiled.
Partially correct~? Which part? The I’m gonna die part?
“No~ You’re not gonna die Sho-chan.. that I can assure you..” owh~ now how are you gonna assure me when we’re.. no, I’m dealing with supernatural beings here..
“I said you’re…” he couldn’t finish or more like I couldn’t hear him finish as Aiba cut in.
“Enough with mind reading shall we? It’s getting annoying..”
“Hai~” sheesh..
“Like Kazu-chan said, you’re not gonna die.. That is if we can do something about it..” Do something about it~ that means I WILL die..
“SHO-CHAN~!! Don’t make me eat you~!” eat me? So that’s how I’m gonna die??
Through the mirror, I could see Nino palmed his face while Aiba was just staring at us blankly. That was when I noticed my face was pale white. Anger turned me white or scared of death? I have absolutely no idea.
“One thing I can say is..” he vamp spoke, making me shift my glance back at him. “The thing you felt this evening was real.”
What thing? I felt something? I don’t recall. Sakurai Sho~ you’re hopeless.
“The feeling..” Nino seemed to be a little unsure while Aiba was rather calm when the situation was so tense. “Ahh~ so what I predicted was real.”
“Yup..” he nodded. “not just real Kazu-chan.. It’s already starting.”
“What’s starting??” I questioned but they were so busy talking to themselves I ended up falling asleep at my messy desk since I have got no idea what they were talking about.
----
“Rise and shine sleepy head.” I stirred as I stretched out on the bed.
Bed? Since when was I on the bed?? I sat up so fast that I felt a sting of pain run through my brain. I had my eyes closed to endure the pain and soon after when the stinging was gone, I was greeted with a pair of golden eyes.
“AIBA MASAKI~!” what the heck is he doing still here??
I scanned through my room to see if everything was still in place since I don’t want to get myself in trouble while the hyper vampire skipped around the room making me dizzy.
“Where’s Nino?” I questioned, knowing that he’s somewhere around since the sun had risen and he could not show himself… The sun had risen?????
“aww, miss me already?” there was an obvious smirk in his voice. Damn, he’s bratty. “and yes, the sun had risen and you’re late.” I’m LATE?!
“Why didn’t you wake me up like you usually do?” I whined as I literally jumped out of bed to get dressed. My parents are so gonna kill me if they find out that I was late.
“Wake you? I just did.” He pouted. My eyes narrowed while I stared at him. He’s a real baka for someone who’s been living for more than a thousand years. “Late? You mean for school?” he questioned as he flashed his puppy eyes at me.
“Duh~ what do you think..” I answered, filled with sarcasm.
“Owh~ I think you don’t have to rush then.” He smiled. He’s a true idiot. I’ll be at least 15 minutes late even if I were to dash my way to school. “Your lecturer called and said class was canceled.”
I stopped all my rushed dressing with my pants up to my knees and my shirt still not buttoned, messily dressed and stared at Aiba, disbelieve. He could have told me earlier so I didn’t have to go through all that panic of getting in trouble with my parents.
“Sho-chan..” Nino-kun, you knew class was cancel didn’t you? “err.. maybe..” I sighed. Even if I feel like slapping that face of his, I couldn’t. Not because I can’t reach him but I just couldn’t.
“Don’t just pause, Sho-chan.. hurry up and get dressed.” Aiba said, handing me a T-shirt.
“Am I missing anything here?” I raised an eyebrow, suspecting that the two supernatural beings planned something fishy after I fell asleep.
“Maybe~” BRAT~!
“Nope.. We’re just going to the amusement park.” He said happily, jumping up and down, totally excited about the whole thing.
Of all places, why the amusement park? Forget it, there’s no way I’ll be able to argue my way out especially when these 2 beings are concerned.
“We’re ‘nice’ beings.” Owh, very ‘nice’ indeed, I sighed for the nth time this morning. Darn, I’m gonna age fast if I keep sighing like this.
Thus, we ended up at the amusement park early in the morning and to my surprise, it was already packed with kids. What’s the occasion? Damn it’s crowded.
“Sho-chan doesn’t like crowds?” Nino questioned; mind reading again?
I just nodded briefly while Aiba stared at me concerned. I blinked a few times, not knowing what he is concerned of so I tilted my head a little questioning.
“Nothing. Just stick with me kay~” he cheered, answering my silent question.
We purchased our tickets with Nino complaining how expensive the tickets were and just wouldn’t drop the topic and kept on complaining and complaining non-stop by my ear.
“Nino~ I paid for the tickets and I’m not complaining, so you should stop as well.” Ahh~ wrong move, I’m talking to air. Children were looking at me with a weird stare as if I’m some crazy dude.
“Well, what’s Sho-chan’s mine and what’s mine is still mine since you’re my master.” I clicked my tongue.. not knowing what to argue with.
I nearly bumped into Aiba for he suddenly stopped walking without warning at all.
“What’s wrong?” I asked, trying not to be rude.
“They’re here.” Who’s here? Nino?
“I feel it too..” feel what?
What I’m feeling now is lost since I have got absolutely no idea what those 2 were talking about. I was hoping Nino heard my thoughts and does some explaining but he kept quiet. Aiba was too quiet to be the usual jumpy vampire even though I’ve just met him yesterday.
I blinked again. Aiba is a vampire right? Then why isn’t he on fire like the book said vampires will when under the sun. I’m a total idiot to notice it now. I could hear Nino chuckle but he went silent after a while.
“Come here.. follow me..” I hesitated. Do I have a choice?
“No you don’t.. let’s go..” why are you ordering me around?
“I am not ordering you around.” Yes you are.
“am not..” you are.
“Are you guys done arguing?” Aiba asked, that was when I noticed we were in a very narrow alley.
“Where in the world are we? Are we still in the park?” I asked as I looked around, an eerie feeling creeping up my chest.
“You feel it too don’t you..” Aiba smiled at me. Feel what?? I’m lost again.
“Sho-chan feels it? How?” am I not supposed to feel it? What in the world is going on here?
“Sho-chan is somewhat connected to Kazu-chan..” that’s it? And it’s supposed to explain everything?
“So.. what next? A port hole is gonna appear and we’re gonna be sucked into it?” wow, my imagination is good.
“Maybe~” Aiba removed a piece of cloth covering a mirror which I failed to notice earlier.
Without warning as usual, Aiba pushed me towards the mirror, head first. I was crashing straight into the mirror without any control. I closed my eyes shut, waiting for the stinging pain but it never came. I slowly opened my eyes to find Nino staring at me.
“Sho-chan, are you okay?” Nino? I’m seeing Nino.
I reached out and caressed his cheeks. I can touch him. I can feel him.
“Of course you can.” He smiled at me warmly unlike the usual brat.
“So now that we’re here…” I have a bad feeling about this. Nino smiled at me sheepishly which can only mean one thing.. BAD..
Aiba now has his fangs out. So did Nino. Nino has fangs? Nino’s a vamp? What in the world is happening? I’m only human for goodness sake, situation like this is not meant for me~
“Stop whining Sho-chan~ they’re coming.” Who’s coming, I started to freak out.
My usual failing attitude when it comes sports were well known but maybe not to this 2 beings here but they looked like they’re ready to face a battle with me, a useless geek!
“They’re here because of you~!” Nino half shouted, I supposed he read my mind.
Wait. Wait wait wait~! Because of me~? My eyes widen in shock. The next thing I know was Nino hissed dangerously with Aiba by my side and I felt an extremely painful sting by my neck. The pain could bring someone to hell then get pull back to earth.
I could hear Nino’s screams as I felt someone supporting me. Through a misty sight, I saw people. A lot of people, no they’re not people, they’re beings. My guess was they were here to take my life. But Nino and Aiba were the ones who brought me here. Various questions flooded my brain and I was quite amazed that I could still come up with questions in a situation I’m in.
The feeling of blood oozing out of my neck was weird but there was something else. Something wet. A tongue?
“Ni..Nino?” I asked, slowly losing myself to the pain.
“Sho-chan! Don’t sleep~.. Sho-ch….” I lost it.. I couldn’t hear what Nino was saying any longer.
----
“Kazu..” a voice called..
“hmm?” so familiar..
“I love you..” who is it?
“I know..”
“Brat!” Nino??
“Can’t help it.. you fell for a brat like me..”
*laughs*
----
I came back to my senses after god knows how long I slept. I slowly opened my eyes though my eye lids were feeling heavy and my body was quite reluctant as it just wouldn’t act like what my brain is asking it to.
Before I came to be completely conscious, I have a person’s name in mind. Nino~ What the heck happened back there and is Nino okay? Questions once again flood my mind. I sat up from what I was supposed to be lying down on, that was when I noticed the foreign place.
“Sho-chan?” Aiba? “You’re finally awake!” Aiba literally jumped on me.
Nino.. Where’s Nino?? I kept on asking but without speaking. Then I realized that I was so used to talking without actually talking that I naturally thought Aiba could hear me.
“Aiba.. ugh~” pain struck right at my chest making me grab onto the shirt I was wearing.
“Hey, careful..” Aiba said, handing me a glass of water.
“Where’s Nino?” I asked without moving a muscle, ignoring the glass offered.
The vampire kept quiet. Something’s definitely wrong~ Nino would be a total brat and start shooting me with his comments if he knew I woke up. That’s him. Where is he?
“Nino..” I said under my breath before jumping right onto Aiba, strangling him in process. “Where the fuck is Nino?” I shook Aiba hard not knowing where the strength came from.
I stopped for a while to think it through. I looked down to my chest and I could still feel the presence of the necklace. The necklace is here, Nino should be too. I was strangling Aiba once again but he made no move to defend himself which I find it weird. Nino Nino Nino Nino was all I was thinking.
“Aiba Masaki! Nino.. Where’s KAZU~!” Aiba smirked instead of telling me where Nino was. He’s really getting on my nerves.
“Aren’t you gonna ask where we are first?” he asked instead.
“Cut the crap Aiba. I’m not interested. For the last time, where’s Kazu?” anger and frustration were both eating me up alive and I’m reaching my limits.
It was painstaking. I don’t know when I grew so close to that brat that made me react like this when he’s not around. His absence is doubtful since he’s supposed to be in the necklace. Is he dead? No, that wouldn’t happen. He’s not even human.
“But that doesn’t mean I can’t die..” KAZU~!!
Where have you been?
“I was err, chilling out.”
My eyes widen. Chilling out? I was acting like a total idiot, strangling a vampire, not to mention that I just woke up from that horrible pain experience, he was freaking chilling?
“You got me worried..” I whispered my thoughts out.
Nino appeared in the mirror leaning against the wall. His expression worried and gentle as he pouted facing me.
“Speak for yourself.” He stuck his tongue out at me. So now it’s my fault? “Of course it’s your fault~” tsk. “but..” but? “I’m happy that you’re doing well, after strangling Ma-chan like that.” Ma-chan..
“That hurts too..” Aiba got up, rubbing his chest, the place where I was strangling him moments ago.
“Since when did you start calling Kazu-chan, Kazu?” Kazu? He’s always the brat Nino..
“huh?”
“You were yelling ‘where’s Kazu!’ moments ago, choking me and I would really have died if I wasn’t a vampire.” He said waving his hands in the air. “with a face like that.” He turned around making a scary face.
“I don’t look like that~!” I argued, offended.
“Yea you do~!” No I don’t ~! Sheesh.. I don’t wanna talk about it.. My head hurts..
“You okay??” Nino asked concern plastered all over his face. It was my first time seeing him with such a warm expression.
I nodded smiling, thinking what would my parent’s reaction be if they found out that I have 2 vampires.. 2 vampires..
“Nino~”
“hmm?”
“Are you also…” I got cut midsentence by yours truly Aiba Masaki.
“I was the one who turned him..” turned him?
“Ma-chan’s my creator..” Ma-chan.. can’t you stop calling him that.. I sighed. “Jealous?” I could tell there was a smirk plastered on his face without looking at him.
“Who is~ hmph..” Aiba stared at us like he’s seen a ghost. “What?”
“Nothing..” that reminds me..
“Aiba-san~” I said seriously “What in heaven’s name happened there..” I pointed at Nino.
“where?” he’s an idiot.. I’m sure Nino agrees with me since he was laughing.
“Nino’s world, dimension.. whatever you call it..” I shrugged knowing that I wouldn’t get an answer relevant enough to be explained by science.
“Ma-chan.. can I do it?” Nino asked Aiba with his cute pleading eyes that I felt like blind folding Aiba so he wouldn’t see it.
The older vampire was reluctant but nodded after awhile of debating with himself. Aiba went out, leaving us alone.. come to think of it, where are we? I was as clueless as I can be.
“Sho-chan.. there’s something I need to tell you..” his facial expression was so serious that it scares me.
