"Listen, Zero…"
"You should drink my blood now."
Zero looks up, glares and tries to say something. Kaname lowers his head amd tightens his grips and Zero can smell his blood, oh he's so hungry, and he is saying words that are incoherent and not important—Zero is hungy.
He opens his mouth.
His blood is bitter—he is his enemy—but it tastes so very nice and oh how he wants more.
He drinks and drinks and drinks, and Kaname let him.

"What are you doing?" he gasps, claws at Kaname, and trying to push him away. The smell of blood is overpowering, intoxicating.
Kaname pushes his head into his neck.
"Drink."
He tries to shout, scowl and stop himself, but he drinks his blood anyway.

He is panting, his throat hurts his eyes hurts his chest hurts everything hurts. His head is pounding, and why is the smell of blood everywhere, he is so very hungry.
He curls himself and gnaws at his wrist and chokes, because his blood is disgusting.
Awhile later Kaname comes in and he wants to kill himself for wanting to drink his blood, but ignorance is bliss.

"Go away," he says coldly, distancing himself from Kaname. He smiles.
"But you're hungry."
"I don't care," he snaps, curling himself into a corner. "You don't care. Go away."
Kaname is walking closer.
"Why must you keep making me angry?" Zero says when Kaname kneels in front of him and pulls him close, angry and so furious he bites Kaname just to spite him.

Zero wakes up when he smells blood so near and close and overpowering. Kaname is there—so incredibly close to him and Zero can feel his breath on his face.
"Drink," Kaname orders. Zero blinks.
"But I'm not hungry," he says.
Kaname looks at him. "Do you need a reason to?"

"I'm hungry," Zero says.
Kaname kneels in front of him and Zero drinks his blood.

They'd been fighting, and now Zero and Kaname lie on the floor, gasping and panting and sweating.
Kaname finds his feet first, and offers a hand to Zero. Zero takes it.
When Kaname dusts dirt off his shirt Zero licks his cheek. He raises his eyebrows.
"You have blood on your cheek," he explains.

"I'm not hungry," Zero looks away.
Kaname sighs and takes back his wrist,
Then he tugs Zero and shoves his face into his neck.
He bites down.

"You are annoying," Zero scowls, glares at Kaname. "You make me angry and steal my gun and always touch me. I'm going to suck you dry."
Kaname smirks. "Be my guest."
It is only the next morning when Zero leaves Kaname's room, disheveled and extremely messy.

It has become something in their lives, a routine that's been there for so long he couldn't remember when it had started.
"Are you hungry?"
"Yes."
They're dancing in a music box, like always and never ending.

Really really rushed. Haven't been re-read, so I apologize for any stupid mistakes. And Duckie, I hope Kaname x Zero is just as good as Zero x Kaname-
