"I fed from you..... When we were younger..... I was hurt...... You let me drink your blood because you suspected what I was at the time." He said, voice hoarse from screaming and head throbbing with blinding agony, "I was 7 at the time. You hid me in your room for almost a year letting me feed from you when I needed to."<br/><br/>He was crying from the amount of pain he was in. However, he remembered Leilah now, and he remembered who Hitoshi was. Now that he remembered some of his past, he remembered that he owed Hitoshi a few dozen lashes for the ones he'd gotten as a kid. With the surfacing of forgotten memories came the recalling of an unspoken vow. Squeezing her arm, he stood up as he looked skyward. His stance was more refined than it was before. It was almost regal in its bearing.<br/><br/>"I remember now." He said, the pain in his head disappearing as he looked back at Leilah with newfound confidence that he hadn't had in a long time, "He enslaved both of us. I don't know when or how, but we are going to make him pay for taking our lives from us."<br/><br/>He walked over to her and lifted her up in a bridal carry. Strangely, he felt done it before. He looked at her with a smile. With his newfound memories of her, he found that he was strongly attracted to her. No wonder he kissed her earlier, he had been acting on forgotten emotions.<br/><br/>"Hope you don't mind, but I'll carry you back to the school." He said, starting to walk back to the school, "Sorry for hurting you like I did. I'll make it up to you somehow."<br/><br/>He walked fairly leisurely, enjoying the time he had carrying her. Maybe he should have moved quicker but he wanted to spend a little time with her. Injuries aside, he felt they both were okay. He kissed her on the forehead as the roof of the school came into view through the canopy. All in all, today had been rather interesting.<br/><br/>"Don't ask how, but I got my hands on the semester schedule early," He said, holding her tighter, "We have Phys. Ed. With the juniors in our class tomorrow."
