Summer, the warmest season of the year, in the northern hemisphere from June to August and in the southern hemisphere from December to February.
Being a person who lived in the northern hemisphere, just the idea of having summer from December to February just sounds absurd to me. I mean, Christmas in summer?! With no snow and lots of ice cream because ice cream is a staple of summer which reminds me that right now, I was licking a Popsicle that we bought from the convenience store while enjoying the best part of summer.
Summer vacation.
It is a holiday that, wait, everyone knows about summer vacation don’t they? Kids beg for the summer vacation to come sooner and parents detest this part of the year because of the kids at home all the time. The only peaceful at home time one might have at home gets snatched away from them by a holiday. Though schools don’t really like us because they give us the most dreadful thing of summer.
Holiday homework.
Who even came up with such a stupid idea? Who was sitting in the board room saying, let’s just not let the kids enjoy their puny little life and remind them that they are still under the control of our organization?
"Kazu-kun, do you like the flavor I got you?" Ai asked me and I looked up seeing her face looking down at me with an affectionate smile on her face.
Right now, I was sitting in front of the couch. It was like, I was sitting with my back against the lower part of the couch and where my back was, right there, Ai was sitting behind me with her legs spread. It was not a situation I wanted to be in but it happened and when it did, Ai did not let go.
She was also licking her Popsicle while playing with my hair with her other hand. Her soft thighs were right next to my neck and if she wanted, she could wrap them around my neck. In short, I was in heaven.
"Well blueberry was not my first choice but it is not bad," I said and changed the channel on the television. "Even in the Popsicles, you wanted to pair us? Strawberry and blueberry?"
"Everyone knows that a couple always pairs up everything and I wanted to do the same," Ai said nodding her head in a matter-of-fact tone. "On top of that, it is so hot right now so I think Kazu-kun is enjoying my cold body. Isn’t he?"
"I sure am."
That is true, Ai’s legs were touching my arms and were brushing them every now and then. It felt really nice in this harsh summer and even though the air conditioning was blasting at its fullest capacity, I felt like we were being boiled in a pan full of water.
"But why are Japanese summers this painful? Does the world hates us this much?" I said finishing my Popsicle and seeing my tongue being completely purple. "Wow, purple tongue looks really weird."
"How about this one?" Ai said and I looked at her with her tongue out which was entirely red.
"Looks like you drank a lot of blood," I said putting my hand on my neck rubbing it.

For some reason, after the battle with Kasuwagi, Ai started to want to drink blood every now and then even though it was a little amount. She said that it was to keep her body in the best position if something might happen and also that she liked how my blood tasted. I, who felt nice when Ai would suck my blood did not really mind it.
The fangs of the vampires have something similar to an aphrodisiac on them but not exactly that. It is just used to calm the prey down and not struggle much by keeping them under that little feeling of pleasure but it does not really work well with just anyone. As I said, it is not quite exactly aphrodisiac because the person whose blood is been drunk should also be willing to let the blood being sucked. Only then it would work properly so I find pleasure in this.
When I first heard that, I did not quite get it but the time when I remembered when Kasuwagi drank my blood, I did not feel any pleasure. It just felt like my blood was draining about of my body with some initial pain.
There was a little drawback to this occasional bloodsucking which Ai did not notice but I sure did. She started getting bolder about more body contact with me. While normally she would be too shy to try things unless she is overcome with lust, now she starts feeling "weird" every now and then. Her face turns red and it is neither due to embarrassment nor cold.
She would then just get really close to me and start rubbing her body against mine breathing heavily. Ai is not this used to drinking blood since she can sustain her strength with human food so this was probably due to that but it is just my hypothesis.
I looked at Ai and decided to sit up on the couch much to her disappointment. She puffed her cheeks like a pufferfish and crossed her arms. Looks like she was really enjoying that position. Little did she knew, I had other plans for her.
I held her hand pulling her towards me and lifting her, made her sit down on my lap in one smooth movement. Being surprised by this sudden action of mine, she was cutely shaking her head from side to side with her face turned red. She looked like a lost kitten who had no idea what to do.
"Huh? Eh? EHH?"
"Ai loves sitting on my lap, doesn’t she?" I whispered in her ear teasingly.
"K-Kazu-kun," she said turning her face to look at me and I smiled at her. "Ahh, you should at least tell me before doing this."
I wrapped my arms around her waist and rested my head on her back feeling her smooth hair against my cheek. "But what is the fun in that? A flustered Ai looks much cuter to me."
"Kazu-kun has become even more of a tease after he confessed," Ai said pouting. "But I don’t hate it."
"And there is no way I will hate it."
She slid down a little and placed the back of her head against my chest since she was smaller than me in height. Even for a boy, I can say that my height is a little on the taller side while Ai had an average height for a girl her age making it easier for her to do things like these.
We continued to watch the television and then put some action movies on all the while Ai kept cuddling me. Say that it was nice was an understatement.
After the attack of Kasuwagi, Ai and I got a lot more on guard when we step outside of the house. Inside the house was the only time we could let our guard down and do whatever we wanted. Ai finally explained that this house was specially built under his father’s special order and it would hide any sign of who is inside completely for a vampire. He originally made it to keep Ai safe since she was a half-vampire and he knew things could get out of hand.
She started telling me more about her parents and I had this feeling that I definitely knew people like them but could not really remember which totally sucked. Ai looked so enthusiastic whenever she would talk about them and the look on her face told how much she loved and missed them. The big smile with a hint of sadness hidden behind it would always be plastered on Ai’s face while talking about them.
"Kazu-kun, how were your parents like?" Ai asked me and the mood in the entire room took a one-eighty turn.
I did not really like talking about my parents much since it revokes memories I am not fond of remembering. I know that I am a coward in this matter and I want to run away, run away from the sadness of the past but there I can’t just run forever…
"Well, my mother’s name was Shiba Masumi and my father was Shiba Kazuto…" I started and Ai’s ear perked up. "They were not the best at parenting but both of them were very loving. My father used to work for a company that would often call him for night shifts and my mother was a housewife. Dad was a cheerful person and my mother had a very bubbly personality. Looking at them at any time, they always looked like a newlywed couple flirting with each other even in front of me."
"Then they loved each other a lot, didn’t they?" Ai said leaning ever further back on my chest.
"Yes, they loved each other a lot but there was one thing they loved more than each other," I said and a small smile formed on my face. I hugged Ai closer to myself and her nice smell attack my nose. "It was me. They pampered me a lot but never let me get spoiled. They would worry even if I would be out of their vision for more than five minutes which happened often when I used to play in the park. My mother was well…an airhead and would realize it pretty late that I had gone somewhere and just start panicking and dad was a lot more worried about me. I remember that one time I was playing hide and seek with dad and fell asleep in my spot and by the time I woke up, I saw the entire house was a mess. Almost every single place had stuff thrown out of it. It was because they couldn’t find me anywhere."
"Hehe, I can imagine how they would look like. The look of worry on their face."
"They were really worried and when they looked at me rubbing my sleepy eyes while coming out of the closet, I saw real tears falling out of their eyes when they ran and hugged me. That was the day I found out how it felt like breaking my back," I said and Ai giggled. "I miss them, a lot. The only other person I used to talk about my parents was Natsumi-san who messaged today actually."
"Huh? What did she say in that message?"
"She is coming to visit her tonight," I said casually but Ai on the other hand almost jumped out of my lap.
She looked like she was panicking and she also looked really nervous. After the fight with Kasuwagi, we still had school for a week and Ai used to stay back with me but more as I made her. I cannot let my eyes off her for a moment so Natsumi-san would always see her with me and while talking, I blurted out indirectly that I live with Ai now.
Natsumi-san looked really surprised hearing this but did not look displeased on other hand she looked happy.
"At least now this kid does not have to die in solitude," she commented at that time.
"I think we need to worry about you more on that matter," I retorted and it was a big mistake.
An adult woman is much scarier than a teenage girl.
After knowing that, Natsumi-san would talk more with Ai and they got a little close and it looked like Ai also took a liking for Natsumi-san which was good.
"S-sensei is coming here?! Oh, we need to clean the house, make dinner and decorate it. And what if she decided to stay? We don’t even have an extra bed," Ai started muttering out loud.
"Don’t worry Ai. Natsumi-san is like family to me so we won’t really need to worry much but I will take care of the food and you can take care of cleaning the house," I said patting her head and calming her down. "And if she will stay the night, we have my futon, don’t we? I will sleep in that while you both can share the bed."
"Eh? But I want to sleep with Kazu-kun. I cannot have a nice sleep if he is not holding me," she said childishly changing her entire personality in a single second.
Cute.
"It will be just a night and please don’t sneak in my futon in the night. I don’t want Natsumi-san to think we do anything which we don’t do," I said though already having just one bed and two pillows on it is enough to give that idea.
"If Kazu-kun says so," Ai said lowering her head down and then turned her body around climbing on me. Her face was now right in front of mine and it looked red. "Then if Kazu-kun doesn’t mind, can I enjoy his warmth now? We won’t be able to if sensei decides to stay."
I thought a little on the idea and looked back at Ai’s face which was cutely pleading to me to agree to her request. There is no way in hell can I say no to her. This is so unfair to be this cute. I am not complaining though.
"Sure, if Ai wants to, I don’t mind," I said smiling and her face lit up.
"Then, um, can I have some of your blood?" Ai meekly asked with her face completely flushed. "I mean, Kazu-kun doesn’t have to do it if h-"
Before she could complete her sentence, I held the back of her head and pulled it bringing it closer to my neck. I felt her cold lips touch my skin and her breath tickled my skin.
"Don’t be so nervous Ai. If you want blood, you just need to say that," I said patting her head.
Ai opened her mouth and started slowly licking my neck and pulling the collar of my t-shirt. I held her body close to mine and her heartbeat was increasing with each second. Then, she slowly dug her teeth in my neck and I felt a little pain due to this but it soon vanished as she started sucking my blood.
My face started heating up and I bit my lip to stop my voice from escaping. Ai was drinking my blood and the soft sucking sound that she was making along with her expression that I could from the corner of my eye just worsened it. My hands started hugging her closer as I felt the blood slowly being sucked out of me not worrying about it at all.
She stopped sucking my blood and took her teeth out and started licking the spot where she bit me lightly.
"Ahh~ Kazu-kun’s blood tastes so good. I love you so much," she said while licking my neck and then I felt her blood falling on my neck closing the bite wounds.
Ai pulled her face away from my neck and I looked at her and her face was completely red. Her eyes were looking at me with lust and her hands were holding my face in them. She brought her lips closer to mine and started kissing me. Our tongues battled for dominance and I let her win this time.
her tongue danced around in my mouth and I also kept kissing her back. I felt a push on my body and I was pinned down on the couch with Ai on top of me not letting go of my lips for even a second.
This has become something common for both of us now.
