Shuu was lying on his bed, lost in the classical music that filled his senses. His eyes remained closed, oblivious to everything around him. You watched him silently, disappointment etched on your face.

You knew the truth, you couldn't ignore it anymore. Shuu clearly didn't love you, he didn't even seem to make the slightest effort to try to fall in love with you. His apathetic and disinterested attitude was evident. He was very damaged, you knew it well, but you couldn't intervene and try to save him, he didn't ask you to do it.

No, he didn't love you, but he liked having you around. Your afternoons were based on that: you, sitting, looking at him like a fool. He just lay there, with his headphones on, not even looking at you.

Shuu Sakamaki, the mysterious and distant vampire, would never open up to you.

"What are you thinking about?" his voice brought you back to reality. Did he really care? He didn't even open his eyes when he asked you.
