"Don't you ever forget where this blood comes from," Kaname said.

Zero slumped against the wall, breathing heavily. Kaname licked his fingers as he moved toward where Zero sat and knelt before him, legs on either side of Zero's and close to his face. Kaname took Zero's chin in his hand and forced Zero's head up to meet his eyes. Zero tried to turn away, but Kaname's hand was firm and his grip stronger than Zero – the blood-loss did not seem to have any weakening affect on Kaname.

Kaname kissed him suddenly, hard, on the mouth, forcing Zero to taste his blood on Kaname's lips. Kaname bit Zero's lip lightly, drawing blood, and he sucked on it as they shared the taste of one another's blood. Zero was trying in earnest now to turn away but Kaname held him fast with two hands.

Zero didn't want this, but he did. Kaname had opened a strange level of intimacy between then when he let Zero drink his blood, but what had he wanted? He knew that Zero hated him, but also that Zero must serve him, and what more could he want or intend? Was Kaname simply enjoying tormenting him or was he testing Zero's love for Yuuki. But this kissing was arousing in Zero feelings that he'd never experienced before, and perhaps Kaname had never experienced them before and wanted to experiment.

"No," Kaname said, "I have experienced this with Aido," and let Zero imagine what had happened in detail. Zero was startled that Kaname had read his mind, and disturbed that he had done it – Were none of his thoughts safe?"

Kaname did not answer that one, but continued to kiss Zero, letting out a "mmm" in his pleasure. He shifted position, settling upon Zero's lap as he lifted Zero's un-tucked shirt and slid his hand underneath. Zero felt Kaname's fingers on his belly and then as they moved up to tweak his nipples. The other hand had left his head and was roaming downward from Zero's neck. Kaname's hands were cool, raising goose bumps on Zero's skin.

Zero could now turn away from Kaname and he did, breaking the kiss with some difficulty. Kaname did not cease his attack and continued kissing Zero's neck, and Zero attempted to push him away. But then Kaname's teeth were in his neck, and Zero felt the blood being drained out of him, weakening him. Kaname swallowed his blood in greedy gulps and Zero clutched his head, half in pleasure and half to push Kaname away, thinking, 'Enough!'

Kaname reached a hand down Zero's pants and Zero froze. Kaname had stopped draining Zero of blood and was not sucking his neck with his questing lips and the sharp pinprick of his fangs. But all of Zero's attention was concentrated on the cool hand now clutching his throbbing member. Kaname's eyes flicked down along Zero's body and then he leaned back, meeting Zero's eyes with blood-red ones as he licked the last traces of blood off of his lips.

"That certainly stilled and quieted you," Kaname said. Zero swallowed, still painfully aware of the hand down his pants and his rapidly growing boner. Kaname's grip shifted and Zero gritted his teeth. He had begun to leak somewhat and would make a stain in his pants if Kaname continued to hold his penis pointed upward. Seeming to know this, although Zero hadn't voiced the thought, Kaname slowly ran his cool thumb over the head, further stimulating Zero and tormenting his most sensitive spot.

"Ah, but this is part of the price you pay, Zero," Kaname said, "You must give a little something of yourself in return for my blood.

"Perhaps I should take some blood from here as well?" he said, squeezing gently.

"I can't stop you." Zero bit off, "Kuran Kaname."

"You only use my full name when it's an insult, Kiryuu," Kaname said, "I think you ought to have more respect. After all, it should be Kuransama to you."

"I'll never –" Zero began, but Kaname swiftly yanked Zero's head to the right, baring his neck.

"This is how you should approach me," he said, "in deference and servility." Kaname's grip had also shifted lower to cup Zero and squeeze gently, causing Zero not a small amount of discomfort and an even more disturbing thrill of excitement. He seemed to like being dominated by Kaname, although he'd never really had any other relationship with the boy before. Kaname was wakening several new desires in Zero and they all centred on Kaname himself, 'Damn him,' thought Zero, 'I'll never be free.'

"No," Kaname said, and kissed Zero again, pushing him back against the wall. Zero took some initiative, grinding his crotch against Kaname, and Kaname tore gouges in the wall with his fingernails. Zero was glad that Kaname wasn't gripping his shoulders or chest.

"But you like to do this sometimes," Kaname said, "Ehh, Zero?"

Zero did not answer, but blushed crimson.

"Ah," Kaname said, and used a fingernail to open a gash in his neck. He pressed Zero's head against his neck, letting him taste the blood there – awakening his vampire instinct to feed. Kaname sighed as he felt Zero's teeth puncture his skin and slide in. Kaname was busy at Zero's waist, undoing his belt and unbuttoning his trousers, reaching into his pants to free Zero. Zero was lost in his lust, gulping Kaname's blood and holding his hips in now strong hands. Kaname pulled Zero's hands under his now un-tucked shirt and along his ribs. Zero pushed Kaname onto his back, and continued sucking as his hands moved up Kaname's chest, caressing here, tweaking there, and running his fingers loosely along the surface. Kaname seemed to be everywhere beneath him, his body grinding against Zero, and he seemed to want something.

Zero pulled away from Kaname's neck and looked down at the vampire beneath him.

"Bite there," Kaname said, his breath coming in pants, and his hands pushing at his belt at his hips. Zero unfastened Kaname's belt, pushed his shirt up high, and unfastened Kaname's trousers. He quickly pulled them down and then the waistband of Kaname's pants. Kaname pointed to the place where his hip met his lower abdomen on the left side, the v of muscle and flesh that is ever-so-sensitive on the male body. When Zero bit there, Kaname let out a very erotic moan, which had Zero instantly hard again. As Zero began to drink, Kaname ran his fingers through Zero's hair. Miraculously, Kaname was also hard, and Zero wanted to suck on that too, but he was servicing Kaname's desires, and daren't stop what he was doing.

"Too much," Kaname said, weakly pushing Zero's head away.

Zero sat back on his haunches and looked down. Kaname now seemed as weak as he had made Zero only shortly before, his closed eyelids were fluttering, a faint sheen of sweat covered his chest, and he was gently fingering the spot Zero had just bitten, and most inflaming of all, Kaname licked his lips with a quick flick of his tongue. Zero was lost, and bent over Kaname once more, but this time he pressed his need and thrust into Kaname as their mouths met. Kaname's eyes flew open at this unexpected turn, but he groaned and bit Zero's lip when Zero pushed past that sensitive spot inside of him.

"Zero, you –" Kaname began, but Zero was far gone and could not hold himself back any longer, despite what consequences he might face later. Who knows? He may enjoy the punishment Kaname would devise.

"No," Kaname said, and bit down, hard, on Zero's shoulder.

Zero stopped at the sudden pain, at once derailed from his pleasure. He pulled out of Kaname and sat back. Kaname rose and went to a chair by the window.

"Leave me," Kaname said imperiously, and when Zero did not immediately go, a piercing look from Kaname intimidating even Zero was given him. He straightened his uniform hastily, re-buttoning the trousers and tucking the shirt in loosely and tossing the jacket over his shoulder. Without a word, Zero left, his head a whirl of thought.

What had Kaname wanted then? Clearly he had no intention of being Zero's uke, but he must have been attracted to Zero in some way. Or perhaps all vampires became physically intimate when they shared blood and this was not special, had not meant anything. After all, drinking another's blood was much more intimate; and Zero had had difficulty facing Yuuki several times after he fed on her. They had never shared erotic physical contact. Zero blushed to think of it – although he would like it. Zero shook his head to clear it. No good to let those thoughts confuse him, Kaname was his present concern. Kaname had mentioned Aido, although that might have been to intimidate him or make him feel inferior. After all, Aido was the 'Idol' of the Day Class girls and had been born with a vampire's natural beauty – he especially gifted – or so the girls seemed to think – Zero didn't think that way. He shook his head again. Kaname was such a mystery and enigma. Zero was so close to him in their sharing of blood, and now physical intimacy, but Kaname was still so far from him emotionally. But did he want to get closer, and if so, why? Zero banged his head against the wall in the effort to drive Kaname out.

"Zerokun?" Yuuki said, appearing at his side.

"Yu- Yu-" Zero said, startled by her sudden appearance.

"Mou, Zerokun, what are you doing? You've rattled your brains from all the banging. How am I supposed to leave you alone when you get up to this when I do?"

Zero glowered at Yuuki, but allowed himself to be led away from the school building he was about to enter.

"Day Class is over, and you've been missing for the last half of the day. I won't allow you to slip out on your duties as guardian too."

Yuuki's mouth formed a perfect small o, her lips thrust out. Zero walked past her with his hands in his pockets.

"Well, come on then," he said, "Night is falling."

A sweat-droplet appeared beside Yuuki's head and then she ran past Zero toward the Moon Dorm.

"We have to hurry," she called back, and Zero slunk after her at a more rapid pace.
