The IV lay limply on the side of his bed. He had removed it? That couldn't be good. The monitors beeped calmly, telling anyone who entered that he was stable. They were alone though and she was glad for that. Kaneko shook her head slowly, sniffling. "T-this was my fault Allen. I am so sorry for what my father did. I wish there was something I could do to make it all better." She did save his life though, even if at the moment she didn't think she did. "I put your life in danger the moment my father saw you..But...we won't speak of him. He's gone, you're safe now. H-he isn't going to hurt you anymore." She promised, kissing the back of his hand lightly. A weak smile on her face. Weak, and tired.

"I'm j-just glad you're alive." She sniffled again and sat down on the chair next to his bed provided there for visitors. "How are you feeling?" She asked, looking at the IV on his bed. "Not a fan of needles e-either?" She asked, trying to lighten the mood. The air felt so tense, but maybe it was just her. He seemed fine. Looking at his eyes, she loved the color. They looked almost milky, they were really pretty; she was glad she had been able to see them even though they'd probably be covered up again soon. "I-is there anything I can get you? Are you feeling any pain? W-would you like something to eat?" Maybe she could get a nurse to bring him some food even though hospital food wasn't the best.

Kaneko was exhausted and dozing off on the chair in which she sat. The tranquilizer given to her only added to her drowsiness. However, her head kept jerking up once it got too low. No, she couldn't sleep even though she wanted nothing more than to curl up on the chair and sleep. Allen was still under though, no news of him had reached her ears. Maybe they didn't want to tell her flat out he was dead. Maybe they wanted to figure out a nice way to break the news to her. A way that wouldn't be cruel. Maybe he was fine, maybe he had magically survived. Just thinking back to how fast it had all happened, Kaneko started to cry silently in her seat. Her face buried in her hands, her body trembling as she cried.

Passerbys just stared in sympathy. They assumed she had just been given some heart breaking news but they didn't know anything. They didn't know how tired she was, how emotionally drained she was; how guilty she felt. This was all her fault. Who's else could it have been? Her father's? No. She shouldn't have brought Allen home that night, her father never liked her bringing anyone home and she had to go and break the rule and look at what happened because of it. She felt like an idiot.

A hand rested on her shoulder and a puffy red rimmed eyed, red nosed face with slight bags under her eyes looked up at the visitor. Her crying halted momentarily. The nurse explained how the procedure had gone and invited Kaneko to Allen's room so she could see him. He was fine? "H-he's alive?" Kaneko asked, her voice sounded strained. After the nurse nodded, she started to lead Kaneko to Allen's room. The halls were populated by doctors and nurses passing by quickly. Gurneys were being wheeled back and forth. Elevators were being called. People stood impatiently while they waited, shifting from one foot to the other.

Finally, they arrived and the nurse opened the door for Kaneko to walk inside. Kaneko did and when she saw that Allen was indeed alive, she wasted no time in going to his side and taking his hand in both of hers. Fresh tears threatened to fall but she held them back. She noticed that his bandages had been removed and she wondered if that bothered him. Maybe she could find new bandages here and put them on him to replace the old ones. "A-allen..thank goodness you're alright. I..I was so worried." Her voice squeaked at the end there but she had to hold herself together.

It wasn't like he could really run. They would clearly see him. But looking at Allen, he was happy, the monster had died. He had finally killed him. Finally. Kaneko broke down in tears, she was hysterical when the police and ambulance arrived. Her hands held both of Allen's and she cried even more when they pulled her away from him. The paramedics quickly got to work on trying to stabilize him and moved him into the back of the ambulance. She was truly alone right now. Her father was going to be behind bars for who knew how long. Allen...he was probably dead. She would continue to work hard though in order not to lose her house. The bills needed to be payed after all. He had said he loved her, the back of her hand wiped away her tears from her face. The officers handed her some tissues and the paramedic had to stabilize her as well. "I...want to g-go with him." She spoke, a tired look on her face as she pointed at the ambulance.

"H-he's my friend!" She explained, hoping they would allow her to join Allen. The paramedics said it would be no trouble but when they asked her questions about what happened and for information on Allen, she only answered what she could but she told them nothing about who he was. She didn't think Allen would want people to know the truth. Was he really a vampire? Those didn't exist. Her father had told her that they didn't. Had he been lying to her all that time? Allen's pulse was faint, but it was there. They removed the napkins, tossing them in a plastic bag and got to work on stopping the blood. The napkins had helped...a bit.

Kaneko did her best to keep her eyes open, her hand reaching out and holding on to Allen's hand gently. "You're not going...to die." She whispered. Mostly as self reassurance. He would be fine, she had to believe it. They had said he wasn't dead so that had made her only a tiny bit hopeful that he would make it to the hospital.

When they arrived, Allen was taken to have the bullet in his chest extracted. The wound in his arm was small since the bullet had only grazed it thankfully. While she waited, she was seen as well. Doctors wondering if she truly was stable after what had happened. If she would need therapy of sorts, is she had a safe place to stay. Of course she did, she still had her house. She was old enough to stay there and she did have a job so it wasn't like she was totally at a loss. After analyzing her, she was told to wait in the waiting room until Allen was brought to his room; then she would be able to see him again. He would be fine.

Kaneko busied herself placing the napkins on his wounds until she ran out then she fumbled around for her cellphone, she needed an ambulance. "Dad, I suggest you leave now or else I will have you arrested." She hissed. Her hands were trembling, she was shaking from the fear. Her ears were ringing from the sound of the gun going off and she was sure she would never forget what had just happened in front of her. Allen was dying and her father was just standing there, watching. He had done his part. The man smirked, the vampire would die and he would drag his daughter back to their house. He would tell her the truth, and he would make sure she quit her job.

Kaneko's free hand gently squeezed Allen's in reassurance. It would be okay. He would be fine. He had to be. She couldn't believe her father was just standing there, he was going to watch Allen die. Why did he hate him so much? What had Allen done to him to deserve this anyway? Kaneko looked down at Allen, her cellphone in her other hand just ready to dial the number for help. Her father attacked him, but why? There had to be a reason why he would do such a thing. "Afraid? Afraid of what?" She asked, her voice just barely above a whisper. She didn't trust her actual regular voice right now. The more Allen said, the more confused she grew. "But...y-you're a human too." She let out a weak chuckle. Kaneko couldn't even bring herself to chuckle properly. His last comment made her heart skip a few beats in her chest. He...fell in love?

"Oh please, he's incapable of loving anyone Kaneko. He's a killer. He will only hurt you. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but one day the killer in him will take over and before you know it he'll kill you for no other reason than to feed himself." Her father interjected, finding what Allen was saying repulsive. "He is right though, he doesn't deserve you. You deserve much better. Someone that I know you will be safe around. Allen here, is a vampire. I'm sure he must have told you right?" He asked, knowing already full well the answer.

His daughter looked at him, her eyes wide, tears on the verge of spilling over her cheeks. A vampire? "I...they don't exist." She whispered, shaking her head and shutting her eyes tightly. "They do Kaneko, and Allen is one of them. You mean, he didn't tell you this?" Kaneko didn't say anything. How was she supposed to respond to this? The only thing she could do now was going to be difficult to do, but she had to. She called the ambulance first, explaining the situation and then, while trying not to cry and scream, she reported her own father as the shooter. Even if he did go into hiding, they would know it was him. She was the sole witness. When she had hung up, her father gave her a disappointed look. "Really Kaneko? You're going to throw your own father in prison? After all I've done for you?" Kaneko couldn't speak. She hadn't wanted to, but it was the only way she could protect herself and Allen. "You wanted to k-kill him." She said after a while, her throat burned now and after a moment, sirens were heard in the distance. "Run, I know you will." She whispered, dropping her phone in her purse and looking at the gun as the sirens got louder making her head hurt. "I'm sorry, but you gave me no choice dad."

The beating never came, slowly she opened her eyes to see that her father was now on the ground, Allen looming over him. It scared her because even though she was mad at her father, he was till her father. The only family she had left and she didn't want to hurt him either. He was never able to hit her as he had planned to, the stupid vampire had intervened. It brought an interesting idea to the man's mind. The vampire fancied his daughter. How idiotic. his daughter would never be allowed to see him even if he had to lock her up himself. She didn't need a job either so if she was fired, he wouldn't care. The man's gun fell out of his hand when he hit the ground and he frantically reached for it. "D-dad! D-dad don't!" She screamed but it was too late. Her father took hold of the gun tightly in his hand and aimed it once again at the vampire's chest before pulling the trigger, quickly readying the gun again and aiming again. "Dad no!" She cried now. Rushing over to Allen's side and looking around for something to stop the bleeding. She couldn't find anything but her purse! Quickly, with trembling hands Kaneko reached into her purse and pulled out some napkins. nothing fancy but hopefully it would help with the bleeding on both his arm and chest.

"Allen! Allen l-look at me. D-don't worry you are going to be f- H--hey!" Her father was on his feet now and had cute her off by grabbing her arm and pulling her up with him. "We are going home now." He hissed seriously, pulling her along even though she resisted. "L-let me go! You're hurting me!" She exclaimed, looking at her father who only waved the gun in her face. "You should know better than to raise your voice at me." He hinted. Kaneko instinctively shrunk back and looked at Allen with a hurt expression on her face. She couldn't just leave him there, so she fought and yelled until she managed to pull herself free and ran towards Allen then pulled out her cellphone and glared at her father. "You get close and I will call the police." She warned, taking the napkins and pressing them to Allen's wounds. Her father laughed, "You would actually turn in your own father? Are you not loyal to your own family?" He asked. "I'm not loyal to people who hurt others for no reason." She spat back at him, angry.

"Oh, so you don't know? He didn't tell you?" Her father started. "Just a moment ago Allen was begging me to kill him. Weren't you Allen?" The man said with a sick smile on his face. It was pitch dark outside, everyone was probably asleep and if not, someone was bound to have called the police if they heard the gunshots. Kaneko looked scared at this answer and she looked down at Allen. "Y-you were?" She asked. "I...b-but why? Why do you want to hurt him so much? W-what are you talking about?" She asked her father. "D-didn't tell me what?" This wasn't the right time to ask such questions though, she needed to make sure that Allen would be okay. She needed to get the bleeding to stop.
