"I'm sorry, Daiuske. I almost got you killed. I was going to shoot that assassin in the heart. If I did you would have no heart transplant and you will die." Claire lowers his head.

"But you didn't shoot him and I'm still alive, so everything is fine." Daisuke says with a bright smile. Claire still looks guilt-riddenly depressed.

"The doctor just came check on me and he told me that I should have been long gone before I reached the operation room. I was amazing to keep myself alive the way I did. But the truth is you were the one who kept me alive. I was so cold and so tied at that time I wanted to give up, but I heard your screaming and decided to hold on."

"You heard what I said?" Claire asks embarrassed. The vampire was very emotional last night and he said all those mushy stuff about how he loves Daisuke and he needs Daisuke O.o!

Daisuke nods, "I knew you were crying too. I could feel your tears dripping down my cheeks and lips; I could taste your tears in my mouth…I heard you wanted to have ice cream with me…and I was like…if I go to sleep I won't be able to go eat ice cream at the ice cream parlor! I must stay alive…"

"Ice Cream? Your Stay Alive For ICE CREAM?" Claire yells.

The blonde chuckles, "Hey, give me a break! I'm dying! My brain is oxygen deprived and I can't think straight…"

"You know, I was gonna say I'm sorry and it was wrong for me to call you a dumb blonde last night; but I see there is no need to do that cause I was right after all! You really are a dumb blonde!" Claire grunts.

Daisuke laughs, "Nice to see you all firing up again. Depression just doesn't fit well with the great Crime Lord Vampire."

Claire hits Daisuke in the head. Daisuke shouts, "Ouch! Assaulting a police officer is a serious crime, you know!"

Claire yells, "Don't you dare to die in front of me again, you hear?"

"I can't watch you die…" Daisuke says and throws a set of keys to Claire.

"What is this?" Claire asks.

"My apartment keys. They're for you. Go to my apartment and take all those hidden cameras out,. From now on just come visit me at my apartment when you want to see me. Don't peek at me with hidden cameras like some pervert." Daisuke says.

"You mean I can go to your apartment any time I want?" The vampire asks.

"That's what I said, right?"

"I can go to your bathroom and take baths with you too?"

"What! NO!"

"I guess going to your bedroom and get next to you on your bed is out of the question then."

"You want me to take the keys back?"

Claire laughs, "I just love it when you play hard to get…Why do you want me to have your apartment keys anyway?"

Daisuke answers, "cause I want to be with you, cause I love you. When I remember the way you screamed when I die, the way you cried for me. I felt so lucky. You made my heart jumps."

Claire smirks, "I can make the other parts of your body jump too." The vampire climbs up onto Daisuke bed.

The blond screams, "Hey! Watch the heart! If you are gonna jump me at least wait til I'm better! I'm still in recovery." Daisuke pushes Claire off the bed. The crime boss falls to the ground with a loud thud.

"Ouch! My leg!" Claire cries in pain. Daisuke remembers Claire's wounded leg and gasps, "oh, no! Claire!"

Daisuke sticks his head out to the side of the bed to look for Claire; the vampire reaches up and kisses Daisuke on the lips. Daisuke yells, "hey!"

Claire laughs, "I better go. I have business to take care of. You better get well soon so I can take you to the ice cream parlor."

Daisuke watches as Claire leaves. Claire turns around at the door and says, "Daisuke, I love you."

Daisuke smiles, "I love you too, Claire."
