How come music can get your love and I can't?

Chapter 1: Con Fuoco

Cross Academy, the most prestigious of colleges in Japan. It had everything! Music rooms, a huge concert hall, three swimming pools, huge dorm rooms, fantastic teachers, and most importantly, the world famous music students. It only excepted the best and the best they were… the best of vampires. Of course there were humans there as well, but the thing that made this particular school different from all the others, was all the noble vampires that it had. Especially the one pureblood they had, Kaname Kuran.

"Aww, fuck. First day of school has come again…" Zero grimaced. He was cranky, tired, and totally pissed off. "Stupid parents… I hate this school…," he muttered as he sat down in his first period orchestra class. His returning classmates were getting set up, the freshmen were completely lost and freaking out, and the seniors had ditched class. "Another fucking great day at school," he said sarcastically.

"Oomph." Great… which stuttering freshman girl "accidentally" bumped into him this time? Zero growled, "Watch where you're going." To his surprise a boy, roughly his age, was in front of him putting his arms protectively in front of his cello. "I think you're the one who should watch where you're going," the boy suggested in his melodic voice. "How dare he talk to me that way!" Zero fumed. Didn't the boy know who he was? He was Zero Kiryu, violin extraordinaire, best of the best! Zero tried pushing his way through, but the boy pulled him back in a firm grip, which was surprising for a person with that slim a figure.

"Excuse me," he chimed. "But I think you still owe me an apology," the boy pointed out. Zero snapped.

"Who do you think you are!" Zero challenged. The boy thought for a while and answered. "That isn't important, but who do you think you are"

"That isn't important." Zero sneered, mimicking the male in front of him. A slight frown formed on the boy's flawless face, but then he chuckled, looked at Zero with interest, and simply said, "Is that so?"He then let Zero go. Zero sighed in relief and then went off to set his violin up. Holy shit! People here were just so weird…

"Kaname-sama," interrupted a boy that was playing his viola. "Yes, Takuma?" Kaname replied. "Who was that hot tempered guy?" Takuma asked. Kaname shrugged, he had no idea, and the guy just ran off…

Suddenly the intercom went off. "Hello to all my lovely students, Welcome to the first day of school here at Cross Academy," Cross-san's voice announced cheerfully, " I hope you are all enjoying your first day so far. As you know, because of school traditions, we're going to start off the year with our String Showcase. Our judges will choose one winner and that person will get a trophy and play another piece of their choice. The theme for this competition is "the unexpected". So please get busy, sign ups are in the band room and the dates will be released sometime in the near future. Have a happy first day of school everyone!"

Zero smirked. Yes! The very thing he was excited for. He wasn't a violin extraordinaire for nothing. The only reason he had attended this damn school was for the music it offered. None could compete with it. The room suddenly went into a wild frenzy for the sign up sheets. People left and right pushed and shoved to get their name on the "sacred" list. The String Showcase partially contributed to what made Cross Academy so special. It was one of the few colleges that had a music program, so people far and wide that wanted to learn about music came here for their studies.

The rest of the day for Zero was pretty lame. He just wanted to sign up for the String Showcase. So after school, Zero made his way to the band room. During first period, he hadn't been able to sign up because everyone had wanted to sign up first. So people like Zero, who waited patiently for their turn, hadn't been able to get within a 15-foot radius of the list. Zero scowled at the memory. "Seriously," Zero thought, "It wasn't like the list was going anywhere anytime soon. It seemed like the whole school had gone to the band room after the announcements…"

After a while, Kaname walked in to also get signed up. As he walked in, he heard a very intense piece being played on a violin. He peeked in one of the many practice rooms and saw the silver haired boy from this morning. His long slender fingers moved over the strings with skill, grace, and agility. His eyes were closed, but he seemed to know exactly where his fingers should go. Kaname frowned, "This guy is good… but no matter I always love the competition…" Kaname left the practice rooms, signed the sheet, and strolled off to find a piece to play for the String Showcase…

A/N:

And thanks KanameZero4eva for the help I was like stuck for the longest time so yeah… Oh yeah and please review… I get lots of emails from fan saying that this person like added my story to their favorites or something but that person doesn't review .! So please drop in a word or two or if u have suggestions for later chapters or like new stories or whatever just private message me :D I love getting those things hahah a little chit chat is good for me and my stories XD.

The meaning of the word con fuoco means with fire. I thought this word because it was in my piano theory book and Zero and Kaname are getting all fired up for the competition.
