Summary: Sleep well, tonight, Kaname onii-sama.
"Please don't apologize, onii-sama..."
Even now, as he sleeps, her fingers buried in his hair, he looks stricken with guilt, his body tense, his sleep restless. The things that happened tonight, the pureblood who lost control and found a way to cut short his life placed so much of a burden on her brother. Kaname-onii-sama has always been so very kind-hearted, so forgiving, so gentle. Tonights events, his worry for her, his apology that isn't his to give... she really has been such a burden on him.
She brings his hand to her face and slowly licks each digit, her attempts to remove the stains of blood that soak them, blood that was shed for her. He went against his very being to give her this world, to become king and she can do nothing for him. The sadness that glistens in his eyes when he thinks she doesn't notice or when he's worried, the strength he exerts, all for her. How many corpses have been left in his wake? How many bloody trails has he left to ensure her safety?
Why... must he feel that he needs to take all the burdens himself? Why does he think the things that happened in the past were his fault? Why does he have to take responsibility for Rido, for Ouri, for Sarah or the rest of Vampire Society? Why does he have to be so old, so powerful and yet so foolish?
When she's finished 'cleaning' his hand, she places little butterfly kisses over each knuckle. That is why she must grow up. That is why she can no longer allow herself to be so blissfully unaware. That is why she must learn all she can because he can't take it all. She won't allow him to carry it all. She will be beside him, holding his hand, helping him to usher in the age of peace that once reigned before the fall of pureblood society. Not because of sad state of purebloods, not because she fears the Hunters Association, but for him.
She only wants Kaname onii-sama to smile, to be happy, to be as she feels whenever she is beside him. Even if it's only a small thing compared to the grand scheme, it'll be enough if he can rest peacefully.
