    "And what is it that you want...?" the collected silver haired man questions as he nears the pipe to his lips again to take a puff.

I blink at the question and cross my arms. I wasn't too familiar with the area he had me in today. It was dark but everything was clearly visible. He was a being of dreams...I suppose even he can defy logic. I sigh heavily then look to the side, "...I don't know..." I mutter truthfully. I didn't quite understand the question. It's not exactly one you can answer on the spot.

"Do you wish to go home...?" I swallow at this question but refused to give the obvious answer, "Or do you desire love...?" he continues, finally looks over toward me. His piercing dark eye boring into mine. Love... The word repeated mentally for a moment before I look away and sigh.

"Not like I can really find 'love' anywhere. Especially not here. The only girl that has shown the slightest bit of interest is Vivaldi and she..." I shudder at the thought of us actually being together.

"You're limiting your mind too much, (f/n)..." Nightmare said as he smiles and nears me. His eye staring right through my (e/c) ones...I feel my breathing catch as I could feel his breath on my lips. Was he going to... my heart stopped and I closed my eyes tightly, waiting for what's to come next but the sound of coughing had me reopen my eyes and look toward the man. My eyes widened at the sight. Blood stained through the man's fingers and he was lowered to his knees, his face shadowed over.

"N-Nightmare...?" I question, still jittery from what had happened moments ago, "...m...maybe you should at least go see Julius...? He's got some sort of medical-"

"I don't like doctors." he quickly cuts me off as he pulls out a handkerchief and wipes the blood from his bottom lip. I scowl and sigh heavily, shaking my head.

"Which is exactly why I said Julius..." I mutter as I gaze down at the silver haired man, "...he's not exactly a doctor, but I'm sure he can get you a shot or some-"

    "I don't like injections." he cuts me off again. I release an exasperated sigh and pinch the bridge of my nose with a low grumble. How stubborn could a guy be when he's hacking out blood... "You're becoming much like him..." I look back to see a smirk playing on his lips and I blink blankly, "Like the Watchmaker." Nightmare clarified as he staggers slightly to finally stand again, "Perhaps I should steal you away from him lest he steals your heart..."

I felt my cheeks flush slightly as he brushes my cheek and I look away, biting my bottom lip, "I don't like the guy in the sense you make it seem..." I mutter as I then brush away his hand.

    "Stubborn little (f/n)...can't even see this is all manifested from his own desire."

I jolted awake and shot up out of bed, breathing heavy for a moment before I squinted, the light shining in through my window. I blink a few times before I then sigh, hanging my head a bit as a stretch my arms behind my back. I guess I might have slept wrong or something...I was stiff. I groan a bit as I then roll my shoulder but my hand then brushes against something… fuzzy... I blink before I trail my hand over the material, looking over a few seconds later to see what it turned out to be... "...Boris..." I spoke lowly, frowning slightly, "...what are you doing in my bed...?" he groans and nuzzles more into my pillow, his arm moving to lace around my waist but I didn't receive a verbal response, "...Boris..." I muttered more firmly now.

"Julius left you unattended so I wanted to make sure you were safe..." Boris mutters, weariness clear in his voice. His ears gave a bit of a twitch as he then hid his face into my side, "And you looked so peaceful...so I couldn't just walk away, you know...you just looked so...inviting." even though I couldn't see it, I knew that the cat was smirking. I sigh and shake my head before I lower my hand, making it seem like I was going to brush his hair and I smirked when I saw him tense.


-Boris' PoV

His hand trailed over my head, stroking a bit of my hair. My eyes go wide though my vision is black because I am still hidden in (f/n)'s waist. I felt my cheeks flush. What...was he doing...?


-Reader's PoV

    I give his ear a strong pinch and hear him hiss, his body quickly retreating but my bed was small...so with that movement, I saw the pink pile of fluff tumble off the bed and onto the floor. I bite my bottom lip to silence my chuckling before I peek over the edge. Boris held his ear and his cheeks were scarlet, his gaze diverted with a bit of a scowl, "Oh, come on," I chuckle lightly, "I didn't pinch that hard." I smile down at the man before I shake my head and go to stand. I allow my muscles to stretch once more before I head over toward the wardrobe that Julius has provided. I sigh as I pick out a (f/c) shirt and black pants. I set them onto my bed and look over to see Boris watching me intently but when I catch his gaze, he quickly looks away. I blink a few times. Curious of why he seems so flustered but I then shake my head and sigh a bit, "You aren't mad at me, are you?" I ask as I close my eyes, beginning to slip off my shirt from yesterday. I heard Boris grumble something incoherent as I place my (f/c) shirt off to the side, sighing lightly. I shake my head and chuckle before I replace them with the clothes for today. I glance back over toward Boris and see him sitting cross legged with his head hung. I blink again and perk a brow before I then cross my arms, "Boris..." I spoke lowly and finally the other man looks up toward me. He had a bit of pink on his cheeks as he then looks to the side again. I shake my head then walk over toward him, kneeling down to him and patting his head, "Come on, Boris..." I smile toward him but I tense when he suddenly moves his arms around my waist. It came to such a surprise that I fell back with the cat male's head falling onto my chest. I cough out a bit as the wind is knocked out of my and I flatten on the floor, blinking a few times as I stare up at the ceiling. I blush a bit when I feel the cat nuzzling into my chest and I swallow a bit, "B-Boris..." I stutter as I look down to his pink hair. His ears flattened against his head as he moves his arms around tighter around me. It felt weird...but I didn't hate the feeling. In fact... I felt my heart race as I hesitantly raise my hand and brush a bit through his hair. I then felt something vibrating against my chest and I blink again but I then hear the low sound coming from Boris. He was a cat after all...it was probably typical for a cat to purr. I felt a weird sensation surfacing in my chest. My heart was pounding against my chest as I took one of Boris' ears between my fingers and rubbed the soft flesh softly.

"(f/n), lunch is-" Crow opens my door and goes to step in but with the scene going on now, his features fall blank as he stares down at us. I look back toward the reddish-gold eyed male and fidget a bit, trying to give Boris sign to get off now but the neko didn't budge. I bite my bottom lip and Crow finally gives an emotion...but it wasn't too pleasant. His eyes flicker for a moment before he steps closer, suddenly lifting the pink haired male from the collar, leering down toward the other man. Boris flinches and leers toward Crow, his eyes gaining slits.

"Hey, Let Go, Birdbrain!" Boris hisses as Crow simply drops him. The cat lands in a crouched position and leers up toward the bird.

"You said to let you go, fish breath..." Crow mutters but he then looks over toward me again, crossing his arms, "Come on, (f/n)~." his grin returns to his features as he offers me a hand before a shot is heard and a bullet suddenly rushes past Crow's eyes. The black haired male's smile slowly falls and his eyes narrow before he then glares over toward the cat, his eyes unusually cold, "You're going to regret that, feline..." his voice is low before he turns toward Boris.

I flinch and look between the two as the hostile looks are exchanged between the two, "G-Guys!" I quickly get up to go between the two. Both look toward me and their eyes narrow before they phase past me and lock back onto each other's harsh gaze, "Hey! No killing each other!"

"Don't worry, I'll just knock him down a few lives is all..." Crow mutters as he smirks as he pulls out a necklace from around his neck. It is shaped as a raven claw but it begins to glow before it shifts into a black pistol.

"I'll just ruffle his feathers a bit, (f/n)." Boris smirks as he holds up his gun.

"Damn It!" I shout as I stubbornly stand between the two, "Would you two stop?!" I grit my teeth and both of their eyes fall back onto me, "Now put the guns away." I mutter through grit teeth.

"...he started it..." Boris mutters as he looks to the side and he then sighs as he finally allows his gun to disappear. Crow gazes over toward Boris for a short second before he then looks away with a sigh, allowing his gun to revert back to the raven claw and he then slips it back around his neck.

"Yeah right, hairball..." Crow closes his eyes before he then shakes his head, placing his hands onto his hips, "Whatever though..." Crow suddenly takes my arm and begins to drag me out of the room but I then feel something grip on my other wrist and I'm pulled back in the direction of my room. I glance back to see Boris holding onto my other side and I blink, "Let go, cat..." Crow mutters as he looks back over toward Boris.

"Not a chance, birdbrain." Boris' ears perked up a bit as his eyes flicker angrily. Both of them exchanged another angry glare toward each other before Crow smirks. I then feel his arm snake around my neck and bring me toward his chest. My eyes go wide as I can feel his breath on my neck.

"C-Crow!" I squirm as I try to move away from him but I then felt his arm tighten a bit.

"Come on, (f/n)..." he was speaking lower as he brushes his head against mine, "Julius is out...we can have some time to talk after lunch..." I blushed again as I felt his breath tickling against my ear.

"T-Too close, Crow..." I close my eyes tightly but I then feel another set of arms wrap around my hips and pull me in the opposite direction. I look down and my eyes go wide when I see Boris holding to me. Crow adjusted his arm to move over my chest to hold me under my arm so he doesn't strangle me. I felt chills riding down my spine as I felt his fingers trail across my chest, "G-Guys..." I could feel the heat rising to my chest as both hold me tighter, neither wanting to release me.

"Let go, birdy..." Boris hisses as his hair almost stands on end, leering up toward the black haired male.

"Not a chance, pussycat. The kid needs to eat and he doesn't need a fleabag bothering him..." Crow shoots back. I frown as both send back their insults and I suddenly push them both away.

"That's enough, guys!" I frown as I cross my arms, gazing toward them with a slight leer. These guys acted like children sometimes. Both looked to me with similar gazes. Both being surprised and looking to me with a slight pained expression, "Don't give me those looks..." I mutter and shake my head before I then walk past Crow with a heavy sigh.


I walk downstairs to the kitchen and see that Crow had prepared a meal for lunch. I walk over to get a plate of (favorite food) and smile faintly to myself. 'I guess he remembered when I told him a while back...' I shake my head before I go to sit down. I then get the odd feeling that something was watching me...I look back and set my jaw, gazing out the window. Nothing. I then lower my gaze slightly then shake my head with a sigh, "It is nothing, (f/n)...don't let it get to you..." I mutter to myself but I feel my body growing colder for some reason. I gaze back outside and swallow thickly.

"Is everything alright?" I jolt at the voice and look back toward the doorway, seeing a familiar face.

I exhale and nod silently, "...yeah..." I smile toward him, "Thanks, Julius..." I mutter lowly before I then look back down to the food before me, silently beginning to eat. I could feel Julius' gaze still on me but he then hums and looks to the side before he heads down the hall, walking back toward his study for what I'm guessing.

"How odd for a heartless man to care for a mortal like yourself..." I flinch at the chill the voice sends down my back and look in the direction quickly, my eyes widening a bit when I see an unfamiliar man this time. His hair was black but it had a white streak that parted down the middle and his eyes were a bright greenish-yellow color, piercing daggers right through my own. I felt another shiver down my spine before I close my eyes tightly. This feeling...it was overwhelming... I then feel my breath catch in my throat as something tightens around it. His nails digging into the flesh as well, making me hiss in pain, "...I don't see what makes you so special..." I hear the smirk in his voice and I grit my teeth, not daring to move in his hold lest I get his sharp nails dug further into my skin. I can already feel warm liquid trailing down from some of the points his claws make connection with my neck. I finally reopen my eyes and gaze up toward the figure that towered over me, holding me still in his hold.

"W-What...do you want..." I choke out as I glare back at the man. I don't get a response but instead, I receive a smirk. He then gives a low chuckle before he lifts me from my seated position and brings me off my feet effortlessly. I cringe, feeling his nails sink in deeper before I feel myself slammed against the wall behind him. My back and head both getting the blunt hit and sending the sensation of pain throughout my body. I gasp sharply and close my eyes tightly.

"...you make beautiful faces..." the man smirks sadistically and I can see his tongue form to appear like a snake's, going past his lips for a short second before it retreats back into his mouth, "...I'll be sure to cease that beating heart slowly...painfully..." he moves his mouth near my ear, "...and I'll be sure to do it in front of all of them..." he chuckles lowly and I could feel his tongue flicker against the inside of my ear and my body involuntarily shudders, "...tell anyone of this...and I'll be sure to bury them along with you on your big day..." I grit my teeth and clutch my eyes shut tightly before I feel myself drop, taking a sharp gasp of air when I hit the floor, my body trembling harshly. I open my eyes and fearfully gaze forward but my eyes then falter, seeing that the figure had already disappeared. I swallow before I shakily reach up to touch my neck, wincing as my fingertips brush against the holes punctured through the flesh. I then lower my head, biting my bottom lip. One thought coming to mind, making my chest tighten, joining the throbbing, dulled pain that ran through my body.


                       'I'm screwed...'
Sorry that this chapter is a bit short > _ o; But I needed to post something at least xD So I hope that this chapter isn't too crappy. I know nothing really happens in it, after all. But I'll be sure to put in a bit more in the next chapter :3 And the next chapter will also be one of the chapters that end with branch chapters, of course. So I hope you liked this chapter at least a little.
