Akatsuki Kain sighed as he entered the moon dorm. He was thoroughly exhausted. He shut the door firmly behind him and leaned against it. Why did Kaname insist on dealing with the council? Traveling so far was completely tiring. The noises from the humans on the train ride had prevented him from getting any sleep. Not to mention having to sit next to Ruka while she constantly looked at Kaname with puppy dog eyes. At least he was home now and he could look forward to a good 8 hours of decent sleep.

He took a deep breath and stilled. What was that smell?

He sniffed the air again...alcohol and...blood. Not again!

Kain headed up the steps skipping two at a time as he hurried towards the scent. Walking down the hallway to his room he could definitely tell the smell was getting stronger. Upon reaching his room, he stood outside the door and sighed. The scent was definitely coming from inside and it was coupled with muffled voices and female giggles.

He opened the door to a disturbing yet all too familiar scene. On one of the beds laid the oh so famous Idol-sempai. He was sprawled out and shirtless. There were two girls with him. Not one, but two! One was laying along side him kissing his naked chest while the other was on the other side of him with his fangs buried deeply in her pale neck. Well that would explain the scent of blood.

The girls were in various states of undress. Pieces of their day class school uniforms strewn about the floor along with two empty bottles of champaign, tipped over and completely forgotten. And that would explain the scent of alcohol.

"Hanabusa...."

The young half-naked vampire startled. Pulling away reluctantly from the girl's neck. He looked up to notice Kain in the doorway glaring at him.

"Oh Akatsuki your back!" he had a goofy grin plastered on his face. He was obviously drunk, and hadn't thought anything of the implications of his cousin's early return. "Why the sour face?" He frowned giving his best boyish pout with widened blue eyes. His speech was also noticeably slurred. "Relax, I brought you one." He said and motioned to the girl who's neck was still intact.

"What do you think your doing?" Kain insisted, ignoring the fact that Aidou had just referred to the girl as an object.

At this Aidou simply rolled his eyes. "Research...obviously."

As to what kind of research Aidou thought he was participating in, Kain didn't care to find out.

"C'mon cuz, why don't you relax and hang out with us?"

"Yeah" One of the girls chimed in. "I think your soooooo cute.....hic" the ridiculous fangirl confessed.

"Awe Akatsuki, I think she likes you," Aidou goaded still trying to persuade his stubborn cousin to join in the fun.

"Kaname-sama will be home any minute now you idiot."

Aidou jumped out of the bed unceremoniously tossing one of the girls onto the floor. She fell on her ass with a thud. So ungraceful.

"Owww!" she squealed. Kain grimaced at the painful affect of the high-pitched noise on his overly sensitive vampire ears.

"What?! He's on his his way home now?!" Aidou's blue eyes were wide with a mixture of fear and surprise.

Well that seemed to sober him up. "Yes he just stopped by to report to the chairman. He's probably walking here as we speak."

"Shit" Aidou was obviously distressed. "shit, shit, shit, shit, SHIT!" He was franticly running around the room looking through the clothes on the floor trying to find his shirt. If the situation hadn't been quite so dire, Kain would have found it comical.

Giving up on the shirt Aidou turned to the more immediate problem. He picked up the girl who was still lying on the bed by the arm. "I'm so sorry girls but you have to leave. I promise we can continue this later" ever the playboy, he just couldn't have them hating him. He needed to keep his fan base in order after all.

The girls whined at him. "awwwww Idol-sempai c'mon let us stay"

"We promise to be good" the other one joined in sounding pathetically hopeful.

Honestly, Kain thought. What is wrong with these fangirls? He couldn't believe they put up with the idiot playboy. Although he had to admit getting two girls naked, in bed, and giving away their blood willingly was pretty impressive even for the oh so famous Idol-sempai.

Aidou started leading them towards the door. "Now girls I can't have your reputations ruined when the dorm president returns." Like he cared. "We can meet tomorrow night, I swear." He lied.

Aidou was now practically pushing them out the door. Ignoring their squeals and moans of protest.

"I need to get dressed first!" One of them exclaimed. After all she was only in a bra and her short school uniform skirt.

Hastily Aidou looked around the room for her clothes. He grabbed a pair of shoes, some socks, and one Cross Academy school uniform shirt and shoved them towards the girls as he pushed them out the door.

"Idol-sempai!" The girl was still half naked as he started shutting the door on them.

"So sorry ladies, I'll see you tomorrow." he said as he shut the door in their faces.

He leaned against the door and closed his eyes as if he had just completed the most difficult task ever known to man. Glancing around the room he seemed to notice for the first time that it was a complete disaster. "Jesus Christ, how much time do I have?"

"I already told you." Kain was so obviously annoyed with him. "Minutes...maybe seconds."

At Kain's words Aidou looked like he was going to have a panic attack.

"Just get some clothes on that don't reek and I'll clean the room." Kain didn't know why he was always saving his ass. Really, the boy would never learn.

"Thanks Akatsuki, I really owe you one."

"If I had a dollar for every time you said that." But Aidou didn't seem to hear him as he was quickly changing into a clean button down shirt and black slacks.

As Aidou changed clothes Kain picked up the various things strewn about the room. A forgotten sock, the two empty bottles of champaign, more than a few empty glasses, a pink lacy thong.

What? A thong?!!! Aidou's fangirls really do go to extremes to get his attention.

Kain picked up the thong with two fingers disgustedly and threw it along with the other things into the trash can then tightly closed the lid. Hopefully that would at least keep the smell of alcohol from traveling all the way down the stairs to the entry way, where the dreaded Kaname was sure to enter at any moment.

Kain turned to his cousin who looked at least half way sober with fresh clothes on and his thick blond hair no longer a bed ridden mess. "Ready yet? We should go down to greet him." Kain said.

Aidou nodded and followed him out the door and down the stairs.

They had only reached the entryway a few seconds before the door opened and Kaname entered. His authoritative presence was like a thick smoke that filled the room. The cousins bowed in greeting as their beloved pureblood leader stepped inside. Tall and ever so calm he eyed them suspiciously.

"Tuck your shirt in Aidou" he commanded.

Aidou startled at his words and quickly tucked in his shirt. Were his hands shaking?

Goddammit! why didn't Akatsuki tell me! he thought as he avoided Kaname's stare. He was so dead.

"I trust nothing unusual happened while I was gone?" Kaname spoke again to Aido. Was he toying with him?

"Of course not Kaname-sama" He said respectfully, still avoiding eye contact. "Everything is in order as usual." He was holding his breath. Mentally praying that Kaname wouldn't notice his nervousness.

Kaname eyed him silently for a moment, and Aidou felt like he was about to collapse from the stress. He should probably prepare himself for a slap because it was sure to come.

The silence continued for what seemed like eternity but there was no resulting slap. Finally, Kaname spoke again.

"Good well I'm going to retire. I'm sure Kain would like some rest as well. I'll see you two tomorrow."

Aidou let out his breath and inwardly sighed with relief. He was so damn lucky tonight. He felt like he could kiss Akatsuki for getting him out of this. Ewwww, well maybe not kiss him but at least buy him an expensive present or bring him a cute day class girl to devour. Oh wait, Kain probably wouldn't want that.

Kaname, who had turned for the stairs, suddenly stopped and turned back to look at him. Aidou held his breath again. Maybe he had allowed himself to feel relieved too soon.

"Oh, and Aidou," He said as the blue eyed blond tensed. "You should at least make sure those girls get home to their dorms safely."

Thanks for reading! In case your wondering where Yori is, don't worry. The next two chapters are almost entirely devoted to her. They're already ready to go on my computer I'll post them when I wake up in the morning.

Oh and Kain really isn't in it all that much, I just felt it would be fun to introduce Aidou from his perspective. =p
