A few minutes earlier.
Toga poutes, "Ael got one, so I get one too~,"
I sigh pinching the bridge of my nose, "Toga."
She leans in closer, her golden eyes glistening mischievously "Come on Aki~ Just one little kiss? I promise I won't bite~,"
I raise a brow , "I highly doubt that."
Toga just grins, flashing her canines,"Okay, maybe just a little nibble."
I shake my head with a chuckle, thinking she's playing, "You're impossible."
She continues negging for a while, throwing in some playfully whines and exaggerated poutes, but eventually.
She got quiet.
Too quiet.
That's when I noticed
Her posture had changed, her earlier energetic bounce was gone. She curled up on the couch opposite mine, arms wrapped around her knees and her head in them.
With my crazy sense of smell and hearing I easily noticed her sniffles and tears that she tries to hide in the fabric of her pajamas.
A sharp pang of guilt stabs through my chest.
Shit.
I just realised, Toga wasn't throwing a tantrum for attention, no she was actually sad and upset.
I feel like a idiot.
I had spent so much time dealing and daydreaming about Ael's flustered retreat and our little kiss, that I had forgotten something crucial, Toga wasn't normal.
She isn't just a hyperactive, clingy girl who loves chaos and always has a grin on her face. No she was vulnerable, lonely and...
Broken.
Someone who had spent her whole life yearning for love and attention, just to get abandoned, rejected and treated like a monster by everyone she once trusted.
And now, she finally found someone , Me, who accepted her for who she is, someone she loves dearly, only to find that she might not be the only one I'd share my heart with.
Yet she accepted it even when she didn't want to. Because she didn't want to be left behind.
Because she loved me that much.
And what did I do?
I brushed her off
Fucking hell, Aki.
I exhale slowly and walk over to sit next to her, she didn't react, didn't even look up at me.
I sigh then easily lift her into my lap, wrapping my arms around her smaller frame and pull her into my chest, hugging her gently.
She hasitantly wraps her arms around my neck and rests her face in my chest letting out small sniffles. I gently stroke her silky blond hair.
"Toga, I'm sorry" I said gently
No response.
I tighten my embrace, resting my chin on her head.
"I should've noticed," I murmur, "I should have noticed how you really felt, instead of teasing back."
She still didn't reply, but she trembled.
I could feel her shake as her fingers tighten in my shirt. Seeing my words didn't work much I did the only other thing I could think of.
I pulled back slightly and gently lifted her chin. Her golden eyes, red rimmed, teary, vulnerable, met mine.
Without a word I closed the distance and kissed her.
Softly.
Gently.
She might be always be cheerful, wild and chaotic but in this moment she was just a girl, one who needed to be gently held and loved.
First she gasped against my lips but after a second, she melted into it.
Her arms wraps around my neck pulling me closer, deepening the kiss as she let out soft moans into my mouth.
I could feel it, she was desperate. Not for lust, but for love.
And that's exactly what I'm planning on giving her. So when she tried to slide her tongue into my mouth, I allowed it. I opened my teeth and met her tongue with mine gently guiding her as our tongues twirls and twisted in a sensual dance.
It's not hurried or frantic, just slow, deep and deliberate. Filled with unspoken. Feeling.
Unlike me, Toga wasn't holding back, she poured everything into this kiss.
Her emotions
Her fears.
Her longing.
Her love
I took it all. Accepting everything no matter how small and promised to cherish it till the end of time.
Minutes pass and we didn't stop, we couldn't and we didn't want to.
We kissed till we couldn't breathe anymore. When we finally separated out lips stayed connected by a bridge of clear saliva.
But we payed no attention to it, we were too lost in each other's eyes. Toga's beautiful yet cute flushed face made my heart race.
While, her looking at me like the most precious thing in the world only added fuel to the already heated moment.
After a few seconds of passionate silence she leaned in, putting her forehead against mine and softly said "I love you, Aki. So much it hurts.
"I'm so scared of losing you, I don't think I'd be able to live if that happens" she sniffles trying to hold back her tears," I don't want to be clingy but it's hard to hold back my feelings... Since you're my everything."
I exhale after hearing her finally tell me how she really feels.
"Then don't hold back" I tighten my hold on her,"just be you."
She smile, not big but that's enough to show her genuine happiness.
And that's enough for me.
--------
After we calmed down I receive a system notification.
[Ding! Mission Completed!]
[New Mission – System Evolution]
Objective
Travel around Konoha and meet the leading figures of this world.
Reward
• System gains a real personality.
• Character Template Lottery unlocked.
• System Shop upgrade.
• Random Bloodline unlocked.]
That's great and all but right now the rewards are the last thing on my mind.
Since.
Toga is still sitting on my lap, her body warm and soft pressed against mine, her golden eyes stared into mine with so much emotion it made my chest ache
I had been a idiot for not noticing how much she loves and needs me, but that's all going to change from now on.
--------
Well, having a loving and wholesome romantic moment is good and all, that is if it stoped at wholesome and romantic.
Cause right now I'm starting to sweat balls.
The reason?
Well Toga's still on my lap and this time she's not just sitting, nah she decides to start slow grinding on my slumbering little brother.
If that was all then I'd be able to manage but she was also sucking my blood in the most sinfully ecstatic way possible.
See, after we calmed down I mad a little cut in my neck. Nothing major, just a tiny cut that drips a little bit of blood at a time.
I thought it'd be just enough to keep her busy till I check my rewards. Well I underestimated my own flavor, since Toga considered it a feast.
Every time she suckes out a drop of blood, she lets out a soft, shuddering moan, her whole body trembling against mine as she laps up the slow trickle with pure bliss written all over her face.
"...So good~," she murmur, voice breathless and dreamy as she tightens her hold on me.
I swallow hard, trying my best not to get a boner.
Don't get hard, you're supposed to be 10 years old...
I repeat that mantra in my head, using all my willpower to keep myself in check.
But Toga?
Man, she wasn't making it easy.
Her soft lips trailed kisses down my neck and jawline.
Her tongue was warm, leaving long wet lines as she licks my neck. Even going so far as to lick my upper chest and lips.
She sighs in pleasure, every time she tastes my blood or kisses me.
Fuck
She wasn't even doing this on purpose, she was just that happy.
And that's what made it even worse.
Because I couldn't even be mad.
Toga had been treated as a freak her whole life for her quirk, that make her crave blood.
But here?
With me?
She could be herself.
And for the first time she could be herself and didn't need to be ashamed. For that I didn't mind letting my little brother suffer, for her my boy had to take one for the team.
So after entering a moment of Zen she finally buries her face into my neck, her body relaxing completely , almost melting against me.
Then I noticed it.
Her body felt warmer.
Stronger.
Her muscles had gotten more firm yet still soft enough not to stay feminine, her breathing more steady.
That's when it hit me.
My blood wasn't just a snack to her.
It was a damn treasure chest.
Since her quirk wasn't the same as the original anime I thought she might just be a normal vampire quirk that makes her more agile and stronger while giving her a crazy thirst for blood.
But I was wrong. She actually absorbs my blood, taking in random amounts of my vitality and strength, strengthening her body over time.
Can't lie, that's pretty badass. I'm happy that my little vampire can get stronger while enjoying her favourite drink.
I rub her back as she nuzzles closer.
"You're enjoying this, huh?" I whisper softly.
She gives a soft, content hum with her eyes closed.
"...Mmmhmm~,"
I smile, as long as she's happy, then everythings gonna be alright.
After a few seconds of silence I recieved a notification.

Oh...ooooh shit
Just as I was about to ask the system to draw a templete, I got interrupted.
Even though I knew it was the upgraded system. But I wasn't prepared for it at all.
Just her voice almost gave me a nosebleed.
Her voice was just too sultry, smooth and dripping with confidence, that I made my goth mommy fantasies run wild.
Her words came out slow, Velvety
Each one drawn out teasingly, like she's purring in my ear.
"Mmm~ it would be better...if you drew a bloodline first dear~."
I freeze.
Toga peeks up from my neck in confusion. "Aki why's your face so red,"
I take 2 seconds to calm down and pat her head gently making her purr like a content cat.
"Nothing little vamp"
'Shit the system's bad for my heart.'
I can't help but sigh, thinking about how I'm a throuble magnet.
Welp I'll leave that to future me to deal with.
