This is going to be my second story about my favorite yaoi pairing: Kaname x Zero! XD I hope that you'll enjoy this story just as much as my first one. :3
In this story, Zero and Kaname are models who never really worked with each other but are going to. LOL. Anyway, Zero models for a reason while Kaname models because his family is very well-known in showbiz but that doesn't mean he didn't want to model.
Now... let my story: "A Space in Your Heart for Me" guide you to relaxation and not to mention... fan-girling! XD Maybe...
Click.
The sound of snapshots can be heard in the room. Several props, backdrops, and equipment for lighting can be seen if a random person would just walk in. But, maybe the person's eyes wouldn't linger on those things for more than a second. This is because there is something more alluring to them that can be seen at the center of the room.
"Kiryu-san, can you tilt your head a little higher?" The source of the snapshot sounds, the photographer, asked the person of whom his pictures are being taken.
"Like this?" The male asked, tilting his head up in a certain angle that might even make everyone in the room fawn over him.
"Perfect Kiryu-san." Taking another shot, the photographer stood up. "That's about a wrap for today. You did well as usual Kiryu-san." He smiled at the silver-headed model sitting on a crimson sofa prop.
"I'm glad that I did well Jin-san." The silverette smiled and waved good-bye to his photographer before heaving a sigh. He leaned back onto the soft, crimson-colored couch. "I'm beat..."
"Zero-san!" The said silverette turned his head to the familiar voice of his 'four-eyed' manager. "Thanks for your hard work." He smiled.
"Heh. Hearing that from you isn't really giving me that fulfilling feeling Kenji." Zero crossed his arms across his chest. He never really was in good terms with his manager and yet, why did he even end up with this four-eyed Kenji guy?
"That's no way to speak to your manager Kiryu-san." The tone in Kenji's voice was rather ironic. Just because he was 'managing' Zero as a model doesn't mean he should abuse that power, AND Kenji only calls Zero 'Kiryu-san' when he has something that would piss the silverette off.
"What's the news Megane-san?" Zero asked with a hiss. This isn't good.
"You need to pack every one of your things here and immediately go to Studio 1." Kenji said, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose.
"What?" Studio 1. Isn't that studio used by the famous model Kaname Kuran of the well-known Kuran family? Not that I care about the guy but...why?
"You'll be having a photo shoot with Kuran-sama." To this, the silverette's eyes widened.
"WHAT?!" He shouted in disbelief. He was shocked because not only is he going to meet the rich bastard but he's even going to have a photo shoot with him!
In Studio 1...
Two people where standing in the room, one was a burgundy-eyed brunette and the other was a blonde with emerald eyes.
"Takuma, what's next on my schedule?" The famous model, Kaname Kuran asked his manager who also happened to be his best friend. Kaname just finished his 4th photo shoot of the day and he wanted to get home as soon as possible. He was dead tired.
"You're having another photo shoot of course." Takuma just smiled, holding a clip board which contained the brunette's schedule and several other things. The blonde caught the sigh of frustration his friend heaved. He guessed that the word 'photo shoot' kind of drained Kaname's energy a little too much. "Don't worry about it Kaname. You're not doing the photo shoot alone." Kaname's ears were drawn to that sudden declaration.
"What do you mean Takuma?" Kaname narrowed his eyes at his manager/best friend. It's happened several times before but Kaname had clearly showed his displeasure to working with others that are aiming at his fame. "If that vampire tries to take advantage of me-" Kaname's sentence was cut off by the blonde.
"Oh but it isn't a vampire." The blonde smiled, causing Kaname's eyes to widen a fraction. "The human model from Studio 5, Zero Kiryu, will be your photo shoot groupie." Takuma had flowers around him as he flipped over some papers on his clip board.
"A human?" Kaname was caught off guard because of that. A human huh? I've never heard of a human able to get to work into the top 5 Studios. He must be exceptionally beautiful. As if reading Kaname's mind, Takuma faced his clip board to his friend.
"Here's a photo of him Kaname." Staring into the picture the blonde had made him view, Kaname's eyes were wide from surprise.
"Indeed, he is quite a beautiful person." He admitted and Takuma couldn't help but chuckle as he saw a small dust of pink ghost over his friend's cheeks. Has my dear friend fallen for a beautiful human? Oh dear... I think he's going to aim for him already.
Hearing a series of knocks, the two vampires turned their heads to the door of the studio.
"Oh? Pardon the intrusion." Kenji popped his head out and both Kaname and Takuma sweat-dropped at the human's weirdness.
"You are... Kenji Nozuka-san, right?" Takuma asked. No random person would just waltz in Studio 1, so maybe this was the model, Zero Kiryuu's, manager.
"Yes I am!" He smiled widely before stepping inside the room and opening the door a further bit wider for his model to come in.
Zero came in with a simple dark lavender shirt perfectly clinging to his torso and white jeans. He didn't like dressing up fancy at all so he stayed to simplicity. At first, the silverette's eyes were mostly focused on the dark pavement of the studio, which was very opposite to his light colored one, before hesitantly looking up to see the face of the so cold 'famous-model' Kaname Kuran.
"Eh?" Takuma and Kaname let out a small surprised sound but still remained well-composed. Actually, they were really letting their emotions out on the inside.
He even looks better in person... Kaname thought, trying to remember not to let his jaw hit the floor due to the silverette's gorgeousness. This is Zero Kiryu huh? I still can't believe that he's actually this gorgeous AND a human at that. Wait... what? He might just be another person trying to take advantage of my fame. I need to make sure...
"I'm Takuma Ichijou. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance Zero-kun." Takuma smiled, not even hesitating to shake the male's hand. This has got to be a bishounen that came to life from one of my mangas!
"O-oh...yeah... I'm Zero Kiryu." Zero-kun? No one has ever called me that before. Being called by his name and adding '-kun' to it was rather unusual for him. But, it wasn't really a huge matter for the silverette.
"I'm the manager, and this is Kaname Kuran, my model and my best friend." Introductions were a first. Sure, they were really common but having it with such a 'famous' person just felt a little awkward for Zero.
Staring up at the introduced brunette, Zero's eyes were locked to Kaname's. Burgundy was staring into lavender for who-knows-how-long almost making their gaze at each other serious and intimate. Silence was in the room and tension had risen up after 5 seconds before Kaname showed the silverette a small but true smile from the heart, making Zero feel a small amount of heat rise to his cheeks.
"I'm Kaname Kuran. I'm looking forward to working with you, Zero." He said this as he walked towards the lavender-eyed male. Getting into a 2 ft. range in between them, Kaname took Zero's hand and raised it up to his lips before giving it a small peck. This action right after how Zero heard his given name being uttered in that kind of tone was too much and he couldn't help but blush a deep scarlet before retracting his hand quickly from the brunette model, something the Kuran had not expect at all.
"Sorry to disappoint you, Kuran. I am a man and I'm afraid I don't fall for the same sex. Plus, I am not looking forward to working with you." It was scary for a moment there. Zero had actually said something like that to the model whom everyone would die for just to even get a small glance from him. But, this intrigued the vampire to no end and Takuma was fidgeting so much in worry that Kaname might kill the human on-the-spot.
"You're a feisty one aren't you, Zero." There it goes again, the intimate calling of the silverette's name. However, Kaname couldn't have been more pleased that the silverette wasn't like the other models at all. He treated him as if they were just merely co-models and are at the same level unlike previous times (that didn't really work out) where in models would address him with high authority and would also fawn over him even if they were just in the same room.
"Likewise to you, Kuran." It was very strange for one person to call the other by his/her given name while the other person calls the other by his/her surname. Way too strange to understand but not for these two. Kaname was smirking inwardly at the very first person who defied him and amused him much more than anything could.
"Well then..." Everyone's eyes turned to Takuma who sighed in relief then smiled. "Introductions are done so... you two will start your photo shoot early tomorrow morning."
"What?" Kenji finally had something to say. He was feeling a little left out from the 'extravagant looking' group in the studio that he had to remain silent for a while. "I thought that the photo shoot will start now, Ichijou-san?" The 'megane' was confused. Just a little earlier id he receive information from the blonde that the 'president' wanted studio 1 and studio 5's models to have a photo shoot for a 'BIG-HIT' magazine and see how it'll turn out, but now the Ichijou was saying that the photo shoot will start early tomorrow morning? What the heck!
"Now, now, I know that I told you that the photo shoot was to take place now but the truth is, I just wanted us to get together and be acquainted." In came Takuma's charming smile but Zero remained unaffected by the blonde's flowery atmosphere. Kenji, however, was moved and smiled in return.
"Indeed, this wasn't really a bad idea." The megane said, raising a fist in the air. Takuma just chuckled at his silly action.
"I agree." Kaname intervened. "If it wasn't for Takuma, I would't be able to meet Zero."
Zero just shot a glare at the vampire who was leaning against the wall now.
"Flirtatious bastard."
"Waah! Isn't this nice?" Takuma said, stretching his arms up as he was seated on a soft, cream-colored sofa in studio 1's 'waiting area/room'. With him were his newly acquainted workmates and of course his best friend. They were all sitting for a cup of tea.
"Mmn... this is Darjeeling isn't it?" Kenji hummed as he too whiff at the scent of the tea.
"Indeed it is Kenji-san." Smiled the blonde as he took a small sip from his tea cup.
The two managers were busy in their own world of talking while the two models where in their own world of staring. Both the silverette and the brunette had their cups of tea in one hand and both their eyes locked on each other's. Often times, they would even take a sip of their tea in synchronization. None of the two dared to look away from the gaze they believed held them down on their seats.
Kaname for one was staring at the silverette because he was admiring his beauty. Carefully did he carve every gorgeous detail that Zero's form had to offer him through the windows of the soul. For the latter however was a different notion. The Kiryu had his eyes fixed on the male who was sitting right across from him, admiring his beauty being one of the reasons but there was one other thing that he had not really thought he would be doing.
His gaze is so powerful. Just looking at his eyes makes me falter under its intensity... wait... what? Zero slapped himself on the inside. Had he just been thinking about the model in front of him in that way?! He was the freaking person who said that he doesn't fall for the same sex yet... why is this happening to him? They just met and it already felt like...what? What's this odd beating of my heart?
"Dousureba ii oshiete kure yo...
Nakuseru tsumori nante nakattanda... (Uso tsuke!)
Maru de sekai o teki ni mawashita you...
Boku wa kare-" Beep.
"Excuse me. I need to take this." Kenji said, taking a short leave to the outside of the room to take his call.
"That was a rather... unexpected kind of ring tone." Takuma chuckled lightly.
"I suppose..." Zero nodded, finally closing his eyes to cut off the stare that he had been holding on for a while now.
So continues the day as Takuma continued to let his big mouth talk and talk and talk to the model and manager form studio 5. Kenji having to take a liking to the happy-go-lucky Takuma and vice versa since they were the ones mostly interacting and talking. However, the two models bore each other's presence and are very aware of each other's beauty. Kaname felt the urge to make this beautiful human named Zero Kiryu as his while the said silverette had no idea at all what was the cause of the odd rhythm of his heart beats. He kept convincing himself that he was suffering tachycardia. Oh my... do we have a tsundere?
First impressions were never really a matter for them, but meeting on the first day and experiencing such feelings are just... unbelievable.
That is the end of this chapter! *sighs* L'Amour... Haha, Kaname's love at first sight with a human? Oh yes. It happens.
