Flashback: I was only half on controlling my senses and the other part had itself doing whatever it likes which was picking up Mimiko. My mouth opened and my fangs was in sight I was about to bite her. It wasn't good it was not what I planned it was not her task unless it was an emergency. My senses were back to normal all of a sudden. And my fangs were back in its place but even though I was about to bite Mimiko I darted my gaze on her lips and I did something utterly new.

I kissed her …..

Let's start!

Blood 8: Something Unusually Interesting.

Normal POV

Zelman had kissed her, for the first time. His lips were on hers for a long while until he had realized what he has done. He suddenly opened his eyes and moved away covering his lips with the back of his palm. His eyes shown shock and almost fear knowing that what his done would violate a rule that he has been putting up for the past two hundred years or more. 'Have I really done that?' He thought to himself. As he let out a sigh of disappointment, he heard a muffling sound from Mimiko and so he backed away panic stricken in his insides. 'Damn it! She's gonna wake up!' He thought but then he only saw her shift to the other side of the bed. Well that was close, for Zelman. He shook his head and went out the balcony. As for our dear Mimiko, what might be her dreams right now?

Mimiko's POV

I know, right now I'm dreaming. What am I dreaming of? Well right now I am in the dining area and the window beside the family table is shining brightly and I can clearly see my mama and papa smiling while eating breakfast. I smile as I see papa kiss mama's cheek and she blushed. Mama and papa looked at me and called for my name and said, "Mimiko-chan your mama and papa loves you very much you should always. Remember that!". My smile grew wider and ate my breakfast. Thought deeper inside me, I felt myself sigh and feel my chest hurt. My inner self knew very well that this kind of dream is a wish I am making. A wish that is impossible to be granted for mama and papa are no longer here in this world.

I felt my tears fall down to my cheeks. My dream becomes blurry and it goes pitch black. What do I do? I can't breath the darkness is suffocating me. Someone, please help. Then I felt someone shake me from the outside. Someone is calling my name, I can hear it but it's very faint. Then I heard it again this time clearer and louder. It's Zelman's voice, he's trying to wake me up and I did. I opened my eyes and the sun shone brightly so I have to squint them and they closed again. I rubbed my eyes and slowly opened them again. There I see Zelman sighing near the edge of the bed. I sat up and tried to take it all in I turned to him and he looked at me with unreadable eyes. He came closer to me and wiped a tear off my face with his thumb.

"You're crying again. Didn't I tell you not to cry? Geez, you really are a handful aren't you?" he said and chuckled. I puffed my face and pouted my lips and looked at him with annoyance. " I am not a handful! I do work for you, you know and it's not like I meant to cry." I retorted back at him. He showed me an amused grin and seem to take up a sort of challenging and so he said, " For all you know Mimiko, I put a lot of effort carrying upstairs to my bed and also, I'd have to babysit you whenever you cry. Who knew a strong willed woman like you could cry like a baby." I was fuming at what he said I knew that my face went all red with rage because he was laughing hysterically at me. I felt more pissed and I decided to throw a pillow at him which I did. He dodged it and he only smirked and as a reply, I stuck out my tongue at him. He paused and looked at my tongue intently causing my tongue to quickly retreat back in my mouth. Zelman suddenly stood up in front of me and cupped my face and set his close to mine. Uwaah, I can feel his breathe. Gah! I might be being hypnotized thin Mimiko think!. Without saying anything, I made something up and said, "You know yesterday, I felt someone kiss me. Was it you?" I grinned at him hoping that he'd get stunned and shove away but instead he,

Zelman's POV

I quirked up a brow and just stared at her beaming face. Did she really know? She mustn't have, she was too fast asleep. I just chuckled and gave her a sly smirk and I said, "Who knows, maybe I did." I sat up and went for the door and looked back at her for the last time and went out the room. I walked downstairs and as I reached the bottom, I heard a shriek from the oh-so charming compromiser and I tried to hold back a laugh. Reina passed me and dashed upstairs to my room presenting herself to Mimiko. I didn't wanna bother anymore so I head out to the rose garden. I sat on the bench and just watched the clouds pass by. I took some new brand of cigarettes and inhaled it slowly.

After I was done with smoking I took a walk deeper in the garden. I entered the garden's maze of roses. I smelled the scent of the roses all around me. They smelled like they have just bloomed. I wandered off deeper in the maze and just pondered why the scents of roses were so sweet and too sweet for my taste yet I can't seem to hate them. I picked up a rose that bloomed rather prettier than the rest. I turned it around looking at its curved edges. The little raindrops on it made the rose look shining. I wonder, really, when did I ever find roses like this beautiful? When I was in my younger days I used to burn such things down despite of what my mother and father telling me not to. Now I make such flowers grow in my own backyard. My mother and father, I haven't seen them since then. They both died and I seem to forget how they did. I don't want to remember such events. Not now at least since I have so many things weighing down my shoulders.

I sighed knowing that life is getting harder day by day and that I must take in responsibility for this place. This place called Special Zone. It's very secluded and only chosen people are able to enter. It's somehow like a big compound. Everyone in this place tries to mingle with each other even though they know that humans and vampires linger here altogether. Honestly, to say it's hard to maintain a day without having the common crimes that includes blood and sharp teeth. I wonder how I will deal with this at the end. It seems tiring and boring at the same time. The only interesting thing that happened was when Silver Blade and that Kotarou appeared. I kept walking further lost in my thoughts. It's a good thing though, I haven't been thinking straight at all for a long time. Usually I'd just go and do things for the heck of it without even thinking about it.

Mimiko's POV

"Uhm Reina, This suit isn't too tight is it?" I asked Reina who was smiling at me shaking her head. "Of course not it suits you perfectly." I sighed to myself. Really, I ought to think this dress is too inappropriate. I looked at myself in the mirror and saw my figure. It wasn't all that bad but my clothes. I mean they're too close to my body like its hugging me. I didn't wanna bother telling Reina that I felt uncomfortable with this so I just smiled at her. I looked out the window and saw that it's a sunny day. It looks so beautiful most especially the view that I have of the garden. It was full of blooming roses and they would probably smell good.

I put on that necklace Zelman had given me a few days ago. I got my bag and rushed down the stairs and went straight for the rose garden. Ah yes, the garden, surely it did smell of sweetness. I could lay here on the grass all day and sleep and dream of hopeful dreams. Rose petals flew everywhere as the wind picked up. It was pretty how it twirled around me and how the soft petals hit my cheeks. I suddenly noticed that there was a maze.

"That's so pretty! How come I just noticed it now?" I said to myself as I walked inside of it.

It was pretty big inside with a lot of paths to go. I really didn't keep track of where I was going since I was to amazed by the beautiful arrangement of the roses and how there was this elegant gazebo in the, what seems to be the center of the maze. It looked like it was made of marbles and it was shiny too. There was a small fenced gate that was wrapped in vines with thorns of roses in front of me. It must've been the way in the gazebo area. So I opened it carefully avoiding contact with the thorns as I open the fence. I made my way to the gazebo and looked at it with awe.

"It's even prettier up close." I said as I put my hand on one of the pillars and stroked it. It was smooth and I could almost see my reflection on it. What makes it more elegant, is that there were writings on it and some were illustrations made from golden ink. I was so impressed that I muttered a sigh. Zelman's place sure is nice and comfy to live in despite of the accusations bestowed upon him by some people. I wondered, if he would've been a vampire would he have been able to live a peaceful life? Like how I imagine myself living peacefully in this place. I continued thinking how normal life would've been if the war didn't happen.

I shook my thoughts away since they were ridiculous. It was impossible, what has happened was done.

(Plus it ruins the images of awesome vampires getting all dramatic and stuff.) So back to the landscape and such, not only did the gazebo look good but the rest of the architecture around it. Paralleled from the gazebo, was a fountain with a beautiful statue of a woman holding a jar that pours water is standing in the middle. It was really breath taking. I could probably stare at it all day long. Besides the fountain, there was also a swing with the rope wrapped in vines and had flowers spurting on them. It smells quite nice in here that I wanted to stay forever. I walked over to the swing and sat on it swaying it with a little force. Felt the wind pas me by and I closed my eyes to the peacefulness of this place. I seemed so lost in my wishful thoughts, that I didn't notice someone was walking towards me and abruptly stopped the swing ride.

I suddenly opened my eyes and jolted right up from my sit. It was a mistake to do so because I ended up very close to Zelman's face. Our eyes met then I suddenly backed away and the back of my knees hit the swing's wood piece and that cause them to tremble and I lost my balance.

Normal POV

Mimiko couldn't support her weight anymore so she lost her balance. Zelman was stunned at the time she bolted right up and how close he was to her face, again. It took Zelman a few more seconds to realize that she's about to fall flat on the floor. He quickly grabbed her hand and pulled her too him with too much force. Mimiko slammed her head against Zelman's chest.

"Sorry." He said, he backed away giving her space to breath. Mimiko looked up at him with wide eyes.

"What?" Zelman looked at her confused. She backed away shaking her head. "It's nothing. Anyways I never knew there was such a place like this." She smiled. Zelman smirked and got out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it with his own fire. "Yeah well, it's been here. I don't really quite remember much about this maze. I stopped going around it since I kept leaving the Special Zone." With that said, Zelman blew smoke from his mouth. Mimiko smelled the scent of cigar so she spun around and slapped the cigarette from Zelman's face. Zelman didn't move but only stared at his now useless cigarette butt on the floor.

Okay, end of story. Anyhow, I wonder what Zelman would be saying or at least doing on the next chapter. What do you think Mimiko? -looks at her-

Mimiko: . . . . Uh I-I think I should uh, go get something to drink! –smiles nervously and runs away-..

Me: -looks at Zelman- O _ O … Chill bro, it's just one stick.
