Hey it me again and welcome to the next chapter of Yuki and Zero's quest for love! ...how cheesy was that? I really wanna hit myself for that. Well here it is. *SOILER ALERT!* I actualy put Kaname (EW!) in this story so please tell me how i did with portraying his character.
On patrol again. Winter break just ended but there are still traces of snow on the ground. I wrapped my arms around myself as an icy breeze pushed passed my cloths and forces my hair in front of my face. The cold made me think of Zero. Where is he? What is he doing now?
Once again the kiss ran through my mind. I've been thinking about it a lot lately. I'd kissed a man. I kissed him long and good. And it seems like he doesn't even care. If he wanted to talk about it he would have mentioned something by now. Sometimes I wonder if it even happened. Maybe it was a dream.
No. It couldn't have been. It was all too real. It definitely happened. Why hasn't he said anything? What if it was the moon making us feel those feelings? Or a heat of the moment sort of thing? Is he waiting for me to bring it up? What if we are both thinking the same thing? Is it even worth mentioning? All these questions are giving me a head ace. I ran a hand through my hair and let out a frustrated sigh.
"Yuki?"
I whipped around to see Kaname standing a few feet away. I threw on a smile, "Oh Kaname. You scared me."
"My apologies," He took a few steps closer, "Are you alright? You look distracted."
I set my hands on the edge of the balcony behind me trying to look casual, "I'm fine."
"You don't look it." He ran his fingers down a strand of my hair, "What were you thinking about…just now?"
I could feel a blush coming on as I looked up to his dark red eyes, "N-nothing really. Just stupid stuff, school and my duties, stuff like that.
He didn't look convinced. Of course he can tell I'm lying. He always knows. It's getting frustrating. I look away from his gaze.
"Kaname…Do you know anything about full moons…?"
"Some. Why?"
"What effect do they have on vampires?" I looked up at him hoping he would answer with no questions.
"None. The moon really has no effect on anything related on someone actions. Even a vampire's…Why the sudden curiosity?"
I didn't answer. What was I suppose to tell him? I can't tell him the truth. I pulled away from him. Now talk to Zero isn't a want or a need, it's a requirement. And it needs to be done…tonight!
"I'm sorry Kaname I have to check something." I ran off before he could say anything.
Zero where are you! I need to find you!
He wasn't anywhere. Not in the stables or anywhere around the school. What a night to vanish, Zero… Leaning against a wall in the mathematics wing, I let out a sigh of defeat. I should have known I wouldn't find him. Might as well got take a shower.
I walked down the hall in the headmaster's quarters and found my way to the bath. Opening the door I looked down at Zero sitting on the floor. He was dripping wet in nothing but sweat pants. Of course, why didn't I think to look here before?
"Oh sorry…" I sighed
He looked up at me but didn't answer. Great, he's in one of those moods… I let out a sigh and walked in.
"I couldn't find you during patrol tonight…" still no answer. I turned away from him, watching his expression in the mirror. I untied the red ribbon on the chest on my uniform and started taking off my black jacket, "Were you here the whole time…?"
He glanced up at me. I continued, "I'm not bugging you about being a guardian and all that. I just needed to talk to you and I couldn't find you."
I pulled off my jacket-leaving on my white, button up dress shirt on. Then he spoke, "Well here I am. What do you want?"
Ouch. That was cold. I looked back at him. His eyes locked my gaze. I walked over and knelt beside him.
"…Zero, we kissed…"
His eyes widened and he sat up straight now paying attention. I continued when he didn't answer, "…We haven't…talked about anything and I…You don't seem like you care…"
I folded my hands in my lap. His lips curled up in a little smile as a soft chuckle escaped his throat.
He's…laughing…? Why?
"To tell you the truth," He began, "…I thought it was a dream."
My face fell. I just stared at him. Well I can understand why he would think that. He fell asleep before I kissed him. After thinking about it, I found myself starting to smile, "A…a dream?"
"Yeah." His smile faded slowly followed by mine. Ice is broken…sort of.
Zero asked, "What do you expect to talk about?"
I swallowed hard and broke away from his gaze, "Well…I thought of a lot of questions…?"
"Like what?"
"Uh…" I played with my fingers, "…W-What are we going to do now…Was it a onetime thing…did it mean anything?" I felt my face flush, "Are we a…couple now? Was it just the moon-"
"The Moon? What does that have to do with anything?"
Damn! That one wasn't supposed to come out! I knew he wasn't going to be happy. He's gonna think I'm crazy or something. Still I found myself babbling.
"Well-Uh-I heard that the full moon can make people act weird sometimes. And for some reason that crosses my mind every time I thought about the kiss. But then Kaname told me that the moon has little effect on the earth."
Damn I said Kaname. Now what is he going to think? I glanced up at him. He was glaring at me.
He asked crudely, "You told Kuran?"
I shook my hands at him, "Uh. No! No! I just-uh-asked him about the moon that's all! I-I didn't tell him anything!"
"You think we kissed because of the moon?"
"N-no I-"
"You kissed me first, Yuki. So you think you kissed me because the full moon made you?"
"Well-"
"I kissed you back because of some superstition?"
"I didn't-"
"Didn't what…? Mean it that way? Think about how that sounds? Cause that's definitely what it sounds like to me."
Oh my god he's right. And I didn't even think of that. I'm such an idiot.
I took a minute to answer, dropping my hands back in my lap, "…I'm sorry Zero. Forget I said that. It was just one of my stupid thoughts that come to me when I'm confused," I scooted closer to him, "Aren't you wondering about anything? Don't you have any questions?"
He stared at me and didn't answer. I threw on a nervous little smile, "I'm over thinking it aren't I…Never mind. Forget I said any-"
He stood and started for the door. I jumped up, "Zero wait. I'm sor-"
In one slick motion he whipped around, grabbed my forearms, and slammed my back against the wall. My head dropped as I hit the wall with an 'oof.'
I pulled up my head to looking him in the eye. My eyes scanned over his long, lean body before meeting with his stardust eyes. What's he thinking? His eyes definitely weren't going to tell me. They kept their icy composure, but something about his face was softer than usual. I could feel a blush building under my cheeks. Thoughts ran rapidly through my mind as he remained like that for a moment. Is he going to:
Bite?
Kiss?
Yell?
Walk away?
Say something sexy?
Finally I just said, "Do it…" not sure what to expect. His lips almost immediately met with mine. I swear my heart stopped. I couldn't do anything but let him kiss me. Zero's lips were warm and damp. His grip softened on my arms as his lips moved on mine. Gentle, sweet, soft, perfect. My hands creeped up his bare chest. He slipped his tongue through the small space in my lips, with no hesitation, spiking a jolt of electricity through me. He pressed harder, his kisses growing hungrier.
Zero's hands slowly traced down my forearm and rested on my hips. I was melting as our tongue fought for control. A low rumble escaped his throat making his chest vibrate in all the right places. I slid my hands up a little more and gripped his shoulders. His hands played with the hem of my shirt pulling it up. They smoothed over my skin leaving a hot trail behind them.
His pulled me closer moving one hand to my back but leaving the other where it was. I could feel my legs shaking. They were going to give out any minute as Zero's hands caressed my burning skin. It's hard to say who broke away first. We both needed air badly. The moment our lips broke apart I gasped for air letting out a noise of my own that I didn't mean to make.
I kept my eyes closed for a moment. Zero was still holding me close but I could feel him ever so slowly slipping away. I opened my dark brown eyes and met with his glowing lilac ones that no longer had a cold demeanor. Well maybe a little but not as much as they normally do. My lips were tingling and I was growing limp in his arms. He gently pulled away forcing me to lean against the wall for support.
I couldn't catch my breath. Neither of us could. Nor could we break away from each other's gaze. After a short moment of quiet Zero spoke his voice coming out a little shaken but most of his normal tone still stood.
"…It wasn't the moon…"
And with that he turned and walked out. I watched him go finding myself wanting him to come back and give it another go. It felt like such a short kiss. I let my legs give out sliding down to the floor. My breathing was still raged. I remained on the bathroom floor for about an hour. Zero had answered almost all my questions with one action.
The moon didn't make us act this way.
Zero had feelings for me.
I had feelings for Zero.
We are probably going to kiss again sometimes.
I hope we do.
To tell you the truth...I Hate This! I think i did horrable! Tell me what i did wrong!
