You Will Only Be Mine-Chapter 350: Concept
Hello everyone, my name is Shiba Kazuki, I am sixteen years old and I am in a predicament right now. What is it you might ask? Well, I am right now stuck inside the wall. No, this is not a version of the tag, or is anything supernatural…Maybe a bit of the latter.
Now the question arises, how do I even get out? Unlike last time, when I say I am stuck in the wall, I really mean it. It is really hard to get out myself without damaging property. I know Natsumi-san will kill me for sure.
"K-Kazu-kun?" I heard a worried voice behind me and as much as I would love to see who it was, in this state, it was physically impossible for me.
"Ghed meh auth, phes" I somehow said something in a muffled tone and luckily it was interpreted perfectly. I found myself falling on my back only to land on something cold and soft. My eyes were met with a ruby and emerald. I could see the marks of tears under them and though they shined beautifully right before me, I could see the pain that was hidden underneath. Before I knew it, those jewels were now filled with water yet again.
"You idiot!" she said gently hitting my chest. "Idiot, idiot, idiot, idiot, idiot!"
"Ouch, ouch, can you please go easy on me? I think I cracked some ribs," I said and she immediately stopped hitting me, though tears still fell down her eyes. I sat up and leaned against the wall I left my imprint on.
Aah…Ai is sad. I wouldn’t say I like seeing her like this. Furthermore, she was hurt because of something I said. Will I be able to forgive myself for it? I don’t think I will but I want to change this mood of hers as soon as I can. It’s selfish, right? Wanting to do something like that when I am the one who caused the damage. Maybe it is but when have I not been selfish?
I raised my hand and pulled her close to me. She showed a little resistance at first but soon gave in. Her arms wrapped around me and my nose was assaulted by her sweet smell. I could hear her heartbeat clearly. It was getting calmer by the second and her breath was now long and slow as if she was taking in my scent like I was doing with her. This may just be our first big fight and it left a horrible taste in my mouth. My heart felt like it was being clenched and squeezed hard by something foreign stopping it from beating how it does normally. The blood rushed to my head making me make rash decisions and those weren’t something I was proud of.
I looked at the person holding me and while she was a crying angry mess before, she was nothing different from a baby clinging to her favorite soft toy. Just how big the difference between the two sides of her is something I couldn’t wait to find out more about.
She held me tighter and I wince in pain because my bones hadn’t fully healed yet. Immediately she tried pulling away but I tanked through the pain and held her tighter than before. "B-but the pain."
"Hurting you pains me more than this," I said and closed my eyes as I felt her getting closer to me. Maybe it has been some time since we couldn’t get to be like this I was a little agitated too. We did just find each other just yesterday. If I remember correctly, today is Thursday right? "Maybe waiting until Sunday won’t be that bad of an idea."

"Bad idea for what?" Ai innocently asked and I held her tighter. Good thing my bones have healed up.
"How about we skip school and go on a date?" I suggested to her and I didn’t need to open my eyes to know that hearing this made her face light up. She is nothing less of a cat sometimes when it comes to this stuff. Adopting her won’t be that bad of an idea.
Okay, I need to calm down my train of thought.
I opened my eyes to look in front of me only to find Akira standing there looking annoyed. I didn’t expect her to be so expressive recently but is a nice change of pace.
"Ai, let’s go home," I said and she nodded her head. My eyes locked with Akira and she understood what to do.
Before we knew it, the scenery around us changed and we were all in our living room. I fell on my back because I was not leaning against the wall anymore and Ai fell on top of me. Though, it Is not something I really dislike. The cold feeling enveloping me was very comforting.
"Sorry for the trouble Akira," I said looking at her only to see a little pout on her face.
"After telling me to rest for the day, I ordered around out of nowhere. You really have quite the life," she said and my eyes widened hearing this tone coming from her. Wait, so this means. "This the best I can do right now. I need time to get used to this."
"Ahaha, that’s fine, thank you so much for today Akira. Now I owe you another," I said and she gave me a little smile.
"Please don’t thank me Kazuki-sama. It was my duty," she said in her usual tone.
"And we are back," I throw my hands up defeated. Well, I can see that she is trying her best. "Okay, rest up now. For real this time."
"As you wish Kazuki-sama," she said and bowed one more time before disappearing in thin air. Now that it is taken care of, how do I broach the topic with Ai again? Leaving this untouched after all this will be a fatal mistake after all.
I looked down seeing Ai still completely immersed in her own world. She was snuggling to me like a cat and I am pretty sure if I pat her, she will start purring too. Though it is a theory I want to test afterward. No, I cannot let myself get swayed like this. Focus on what is most important right now Kazuki.
"Ai," I called out her name making her face me. Oh my god, when she looks at me like this I want to spoil her so much. "I…I’m sorry…for what I said before. You are not a headache to deal with."
"N-No, I should be the one to apologize. I promised myself that I would keep you safe and not make you worried but here I am making trouble again…" she said sounding down. Stay strong Kazuki, don’t just dote on her but have a proper conversation.
"Firstly, you will always make me worried, you dummy. As long as you are breathing and alive, I will worry about you no matter what," I said and tried looking into her eyes, she looked like she was going to cry again. Ugh…just a little more, please. "But that is only because I care about you too much. You mean a lot to me so I will worry about your wellbeing no matter what. Even if we were just a normal couple out of this entire vampire thing, I would still worry about every little thing. That is just how it is."
"But- "
"No buts, that is not something negotiable," I cut her off and she nodded her head agreeing with me.
"At least let me say sorry for losing my cool," she continued. "I don’t know what took me over but I am not able to think of anything but you. I tried my best to keep my cool but when Natsumi-san did that, I lost it and leaped. I will be honest when I say that I don’t know when this behavior is fixed but I will try my best."
"Okay," I said and kissed her. "So, we are back to normal?"
"Yes we are," she said and rested her head on my chest. I guess we are going to lay on the floor for longer. Not that is much of a problem to me. The floor is cold and so is Ai so in this brutal summer, there is no better opportunity to keep cool than this. May as well savor it as much as I physically can.
One thing this made me understand is that I have proceeded with things with a lot more care with Ai than I originally thought I had to do. She is far from recovering from what happened in the church which isn’t a surprise but the effect of it on her may have been bigger than I anticipated. Looking at her again, she looked as innocent as a harmless rabbit but I knew if needed she could be as fierce as a tiger. Having to take care of such a person won’t be an easy thing but I will not give up.
Don’t worry Ai, you have me. I will do anything to keep you happy. This is my promise to you.
