She'd called him many things, these past 17 years…
'Onii-sama'
'Kaname-sama'
'Kuran-senpai'
'Kaname-senpai'
It was time, long passed the time actually, when she should have stopped referring to him as 'Onii-sama' or adding useless formal honorifics, and started to call him as simply 'Kaname'.
'I thought we agreed that tonight you would call me only 'Kaname', in front of our guests?'
They were older, more mature and the flavor of his affections was anything but brotherly. He was a man besotted… He adored her, he loved her, he lived for her and he'd killed for her… Did he not deserve the title of 'koibito', for once?
He was both a hungry beast who wished to tear her apart and a gentle masochist who wanted her to punish him for the sins of the past.
'I'm a wounded vampire, in a state of starvation…'
'Please, give me more pain…'
Those two roles Kaname had long since reconciled and accepted, but he would no longer stand to be relegated to the familial in her mind. He couldn't stand it!
Their kisses were no longer sweet children's pecks shared for sustenance beneath the sheets; but heated passionate embraces of fang, lips, and dueling tongues.
'When we're older, we'll be just like okaa-sama, and otou-sama. They were siblings too.'
'I want to fall down with you to the very deepest depths!'
He should no longer be 'brother', but 'lover', damn it!
'But that kind of thing is…'
'Something only animals would do? We are not human, Yuuki.'
Still… He couldn't help but smile gently when she whispered 'nii-sama' in her sleep while snuggling into his naked chest; soft lips landing on pale skin and his arms would tighten around her, holding her as he had for many years - and would for many more to come.
Maybe, he'd allow it a bit longer. There was no hurry after all…
'For better or worse, 'time' is not something purebloods will ever have a lack of.'
Perhaps for now, he could comfortably be both?
"Imouto-chan," he whispered, tasting the title for the first time, and finding it oddly bitter.
No, that wouldn't do. Kaname quickly cleansed his pallet with sweeter, more comfortable words, "Yuuki, I love you."
"Love you too, nii" she groggily whispered, throwing one leg over his hips and laying half-over him in post-coitus comfort.
Sighing softly he resigned himself.
It appeared he didn't have a choice in the matter.
