Sairen wakes up slowly in the middle of the night.
His eyes adjust quickly to the darkness. He turns his head to look at Yuki still asleep next to him. She looks peaceful lying there.
A smile spreads across Sairen's face. This is the most relaxed he has ever seen her in her entire life.
He lays there silently for about five minutes thinking about what the future holds for him.
There isn't any sign that he should be worried or scared in fact that he does know what may happen. In fact he doesn't even have any reason to worry at all.
He reaches out and runs his fingers through her hair.
Kisses her forehead and moves her close to him and goes back to sleep till morning.
When he wakes up he notices he's alone in the bed. There's a note on the nightstand.
"Went to finish telling the other maids that I'm going to be staying with you, meet you downstairs." The note reads.
He smiles happily as he reads the note. He puts it back on the stand before getting ready for the day.
When he exits the bathroom he goes downstairs and see the dining table empty.
Sairen's confused as to where everyone is.
He sees a plate of food at the table with a note saying its for him.
Sairen sits at the chair and begins to eat the food that was left for him.
After finishing his plate he goes to the living room and turns on the television. The news is playing and Sairen watches the broadcast.
"A new villain group has just been spotted attacking multiple cities throughout the country. We' re not sure of the identity nor the purpose of this attack but we do know that they appear human in shape with bright red skin and white hair. Their goal is to take over every city in Japan and eliminate all those who fight against them."
Sairen pauses the news and sets the remote down.
"Who could they be? What makes them different from monsters." He ponders out loud.
Sairen stands from his seat and walks up the stairs to his room.
He opens up his closet and starts searching for something he wants to wear.
His eyes scan the clothes and finds a pair of white shorts and a blue long sleeved shirt.
After changing into his outfit he walks back downstairs and heads towards the kitchen. He grabs an apple and eats it before going outside.
After finishing his apple Sairen starts walking back to his home only to run into someone.
"Ouch!" Sairen exclaims loudly as he falls to the ground on his bottom.
"Shoot!" the stranger says kneeling down next to Sairen.
"Are you ok? I didn't mean to bump into you like that!" the stranger says concerned.
Sairen looks up and realizes it is Yuki.
"It's ok Yuki. Are you alright?" Sairen asks.
"Yep I'm fine, sorry for running into you." Yuki answers politely.
"No worries, it's ok... Did you need something?" Sairen asks curiously.
Yuki looks away shyly.
"Nope!" She squeaks quietly before standing up and rushing away from him.
Sairen stares after her for a moment before following her. When he catches up to her she jumps and hides behind a pillar of one building.

"Were you hiding from me?" Sairen asks amused.
"Yes.." Yuki mumbles softly.
"Why?" He asks.
"Because... I wanted some time alone to think... But you interrupted my thoughts...." Yuki answers nervously.
"What were you thinking about before I interrupted your thoughts?" Sairen asks with a smirk on his face.
"Nothing... Just random things..." Yuki says.
Her cheeks start to turn pink.
Sairen raises an eyebrow but drops the subject.
"What are you doing?" She asks him.
"Nothing, It's just I was wondering why nobody was in the dining room." He says.
"Did I sleep late." He adds.
"Yes, everyone else ate breakfast so i left you a plate." She says.
"Oh ok." He says.
The two remain in silence.
Sairen says "I think we can go see my new house today."
"Ok, sure. Lets go." She replies and the two begin walking side by side.
Soon they arrive at the location of Sairen's house new house.
Sairen opens the door and enters inside.
"This place is huge." Yuki comments.
"Yeah it is." Sairen agrees.
"It must be quite expensive too right." She says looking around.
"Father went all out for my first house." He says surprised.
Sairen looks around his home for a bit before walking towards the living room.
Yuki stays where she is for a while as he continues to examine his new home.
"Yuki? Are you coming?" Sairen calls from the front hallway.
He can hear footsteps approaching him.
They stop and she appears at the entrance.
"I told father to also get us a big bed for the bedroom." Sairen says.
Yuki nods her head and they go into the bedroom. They both walk inside and look around.
"This is amazing." Yuki says awestruck.
Sairen nods and smiles slightly.
He looks around and smiles at how big the bed is and how many pillows are laying on it.
Yuki smiles a bit and walks over to the bed.
She kneels down on the floor and touches the soft sheets.
Sairen smirks and walks towards her.
"Wanna test it out?" Sairen asks slyly.
Yuki's cheeks become tinted pink and she shakes her head.
"Too early in the day?" Sairen asks.
Yuki nods her head slightly.
Sairen lets out a sigh.
"I guess we should unpack." He says.
"I'll help." Yuki says getting off the floor.
"Thanks." Sairen responds as he helps her pick up the boxes.
The two continue to unpack everything as they talk and laugh together.
They unpack their belongings till its dark outside.
"Well I guess I better go take a shower then." Sairen says.
Sairen heads into the bathroom and gets in the shower.
After taking his shower Sairen dries himself off and gets dressed in some pajamas. He goes over to the sink to brush his teeth before heading into to the bedroom.
As soon as Sairen comes into the bedroom, Yuki is already asleep.
She had fallen asleep with her arms wrapped tightly around one of his pillows.
Sairen chuckles at how adorable she looked.
He walks over to the bed and lays down next to her.
Then gently takes her arm from the pillow and wraps his arm around her waist. He closes his eyes and soon falls asleep.
