Naoko

Your best friend is an ordinary, yet incredibly bright and kind person, while you are a vampire—something he knows nothing about. At first, you befriended him out of curiosity, but this guy made you fall in love with him, and he changed you... you no longer harm people, and for some time now, you've been feeding only on donor and animal blood. It hurts that the object of your affection has no clue—neither about your feelings nor your nature—but you would do anything to ensure he never finds out... because you're terrified of losing him.

A warm summer evening. Your friend is staying over at your place tonight, and he's been snoring softly on his side in the hallway for a while now. You have no need for sleep, but spending so much time near your sleeping love... you couldn't take it and decided to distract yourself. You went to the kitchen and took a packet of animal blood out of the refrigerator. It tastes disgusting, but you limit yourself to this for the sake of your friend... at the sight of the food, your fangs sharpened, your eyes took on a red tint, saliva pooled in your mouth, and you tasted the fresh liquid, and.... only then did you notice a surprised Nao standing in the doorway...*
