I felt my whole body slump as the world went black for a moment before I was back in my own body. I moved by hands a bit as I opened my eyes. "Hess must have," I whispered before I noticed Kokichi moving from under me.

He squirmed on the bed and moved his hand to hold my own. "Kokichi?" I asked, moving my head closer to his neck. My cravings were driving me crazy...but I knew I just had to hold on to make sure he was alright. He moved his arms around my neck and brought my lips to his own. I let myself melt against him. His touch caused euphoric feelings and calm sensations run through my lips and throughout my whole body.

"Shuichi...god I missed you..." He whispered against my lips before brushing his hand over his own collarbone. I blushed a bit at this before he moved his fingers to my own hand. His fingers met mine and slowly wrapped around them. Moving my hand over his chest up to his collarbone before going to his neck. My face felt very hot as he looked up at me with half lidded eyes. I wanted him, all of him, right here and right now.

"Shuichi, you can take some, I know you have been waiting," He said plainly as he rubbed the back of my hand. I blushed more and looked to the side trying to calm down my embarrassment. But he just chuckled a bit letting his breath cushion his words. Making it seem like a breathy whisper as the laughter came into my ears, mind, body, and soul.

I smiled to myself before he moved his other hand to guide my head down. He moved my head towards his neck which was slightly above where our hands were laced together. Together. The word made me shudder at the feeling of being able to have him back. My happiness was able to consume the feeling of my own cravings.

"I missed you so much," I said feeling some tears come down my cheeks. He breathed out and gently moved his other hand to wipe away my tears. This made my hand feel empty, and it made me want to cry even harder. I was so tired from staying up countless nights just to make sure that he was going to be okay. I was so exhausted because of the worry that was on my shoulders, trying to break me down to the bone, cutting through my skin, trying to strike down my every soul.

"I missed you too, baby," He whispered back before moving my face down to meet his own. He moved his lips to my cheeks, then to my eyes, before planting a final kiss on my lips. "But I'm here now, and we are safe now." He paused for a moment letting his lips speak against my cheek.

"So, it's okay for you to let your walls down, it's okay for you to bite me," He said again with a little more seriousness decorating his tone. I felt my body flinch a bit at the idea of biting him.

"It's okay to be scared, but I'm okay, and I'm giving you permission." He said again in the same tone. I felt my urges start to take over my mind. My hands moved over his hands slowly bringing them up over his head. Leaving his whole upper body vulnerable. I felt a little nervous but at this point my body was moving on its own. I think Kokichi knew this fact as well.

"Okay," I said in a more breathy whisper. The tone made Kokichi blush, but I didn't see much of it as my head moved down to meet his skin. His hands moved over my sides before they moved over my chest. I felt my heartbeat in my chest in a slow beat. Kokichi's breath was at the same pace making the whole situation more real to the both of us. Like nothing else in this moment mattered other than Kokichi and I.

"I love you..." He whispered as my teeth met his skin. Biting into his neck as I have done some times before. The sensation was the same as the other times, but this time it was still so consuming. Filling my head and senses like an overflowing cup of water. The passion I felt as well as the strength I felt from having him by my side again was like a waterfall of water flowing over the edge. Tumbling and falling to the bottom where another lake of water was.

I moved my lips against his skin as if to tell him all the words I wanted to say to him. As if his skin was the paper and my movements were as a pen touching the page. Dancing against his skin to form the words of what I wanted to say. What I was feeling in the moment, and what I was living in this moment.

His breaths hitting against my head as his hands moved to tangle into my hair were like a summer's breeze. It was there reminding me of the wind and the life of the boy under me. Reminding me how special his life is to me, and how important the air blown is the wind is to continuing life. He was my wind, and I was his fire. Stronger together, nonexistent apart. Fire without air is as if there was no fire at all. Air can exist without fire, but fire can not exist without air.

Fueling my life and my being. He is my everything, my air, my lover, my world. "Hmm, Shu..." He moaned against my head, making me close my eyes as I moved my hand to rub the back of his neck as the other one moved to hold his lower back. I know how this small action is able to make him feel safe, because when he is in weaker moments, I am here to support him...and I will always be here no matter what.

"Kokichi, I love you," I whispered as I moved away from him to catch my breath. He was breathless as well and his face was completely consumed in red. I smiled a bit and planted a kiss on his cheek. "Thank you," I whispered, making him laugh a bit.

"Of course Shumai~," He said in a breathy tone as he was still catching his breath. I moved my head back down to his neck noticing blood was coming out of the wound and almost dripping onto the bed. I moved my tongue across his skin to heal the wound and this made his whole body shudder.

I felt worried at this and shrugged my jacket off my shoulder and moved the jacket around the back of him before moving into the bed next to him. "I'm here, I'm here," I said as I noticed some tears coming to his eyes. I know that the bite makes him feel emotional and clingy...so this time I will be here and be here to hold him. Because that's what he needs.

"T-thanks..." He whispered moving closer to my chest. I sighed a bit and let my hands move around his shoulders. "You're safe now," I said before he let his eyes close. I know he has been sleeping for days...but that doesn't mean he isn't exhausted because of it. So it's best to let him get some much needed sleep.

-Small moments make us who we are. Small memories of what we could be. Loving you was all I need. So let us just be. Be together. happy here forever.-
