Day 181

Time flew by as I spent more and more time with Keitaro. It all seemed too good to be true. Everything was going as planned. Other than a banshee and a werewolf attack, nothing happened. It was his first day at school after the winter break. After his class, there was a dance rehearsal. I dressed up more elegantly and made my way into his school. That was the day I learned something new about my Keitaro. Just like Hannah said, he wasn't the most popular in school...

When I arrived, I saw some of his classmates bully him.

???: Hey! Keitaro. I heard you want to dance at prom.

K: Yes. What of it?

???: Don't you need a girl to do it?

???: No one would ever want to dance with you. Who would want a loser like you?

K: I-. I do have a girlfriend. And she will come.

???: You mean Alex? Ha. Don't make me laugh. You are so ugly, even your mother went to the hospital.

C: Hey! Assholes!

The two bullies turned around and looked at me.

???: Hello there, good looking. Want to have some fun?

These guys make me sick. I approached two boys and grabbed one of the bully's arms, twisting it behind his back.

???: UGGHH.

He was screaming in pain. I could hear his bone crack.

C: Got a problem with my boyfriend?

???: No. I don't have UGH.

I twisted his arm even harder.

K: Please. Stop. It's not worth it.

Keitaro is right. They are not even worth my time. I let go of the bully's arm.

C: Now, get lost.

They were probably running away, telling a teacher what happened. Pathetic.

K: For a nice girl, you have a ruthless side.

C: I'm still part demon. Aren't I?

K: But they are right... What do you see in me...?

I pulled up his chin, making him look into my eyes.

C: I never cared about looks. You are the most honest, kind, patient, and loving person I have ever known. Your soul is pure. White and beautiful. Like the moonlight on fresh snow. And those eyes. I could get lost in them forever.

K: But. I'm shy and ...

C: I don't care. I love you just the way you are. You said those words to me as well. And I will never forget it.

I kissed him on the lips before realizing we had an audience.

???: Ughm.

K: Miss. Dorothy!

Miss. Dorothy: Care to explain what happened, Keitaro?

I have a bad feeling about this.

Miss.Dorothy: Two students came up to me saying that your friend attacked them.

K: Miss Do-

C: Allow me.

I went to her face-to-face. My eyes started to shine.

C: Arikaahdla Nadquf Rabuhg.

I blew green dust that appeared in my palm, and I blew it on Miss. Dorothy's face.

C: Forget everything that happened just now. And tell those two students that they are in huge trouble.

Miss.Dorothy walked away, not questioning anything that just happened.

K: Ok. What was that?

C: Amnesia dust. Verry short-term memory loss. And a minor mind control. Now shall we go? We have a dance to practice. We don't want to be late.

K: Sure, let's go. Can you use that dust on my math teacher to get a better grade on my test?

C: No. Be a good boy and study. And maybe I can reward you later.

K: What kind?

C: Any kind.

K: I like your eyes too. Especially when it glows like that. The most beautiful silver color I have ever seen.

C: Thank you.

Holding hands, we arrived at an empty, spacious room. There were about 30-40 students inside, and the dance teacher.

???: Good. Now that everyone is here, we can start.

We practiced the dance for a couple of hours. The teacher was very pleased with our progress.

???: Verry good. I must say, I'm impressed. I've never seen anyone dance with this passion.

K: Thank you, Missis Kanna.

Missis Kanna: I have never seen your face around here. Are you a new student or...?

C: No. I'm an outsider. Keitaro asked me to dance with him at prom.

Missis Kanna: Are you his sister? You look very close.

C: No. I'm his girlfriend.

Hearing that, a lot of the students started whispering. They spread the rumors around like wildfire.

???: Keitaro has a girlfriend?

???: How did he get a girlfriend this hot?

???: I wish I could have a partner like them.

???: Maybe he isn't such a geek.

Missis Kanna: Enough talking. Let's get back to practice.

While on the dance floor, Keitaro and I had a little chat.

K: Are you sure that was wise?

C: What?

K: You know...

C: Yes, I'm sure. I don't care what they say. I would plunge the world into World War 3 if I had to. I love you. And I'm not afraid of anything as long as you hold me.

As Keitaro heard my words, he smiled and relaxed. He trusted and loved me without question. He accepted me for what I am, and he was ready to live his life with me... Forever. Now, it's all up to find a solution quickly. The last thing I want is for that demon to meddle in my affairs.
