Blood Covered Angel

"Step back! They have class! Can't you understand that?!"

I yelled at the umpteen hundred girls gathered outside the Moon Dorm. It was like this every evening. Night Class comes out of their dorm, girls going nuts, and me getting caught up in the middle of it.

"Please? All I want to do is ask Wild a simple question."
A longhaired brunette asked, giving me puppy dog eyes.

"For the last time no. The Night Class has to get to school on time too. They don't need annoying little girls like you popping up all over the place asking for petty little things, now just turn around and go back to your dorm. Now."

I snarled, this was just a number of the things that I could do without when on my guardian duties. The girl looked at me, shocked by what I had said. I didn't blame her. Zero was normally the one to get huffy, but I was getting worked down to my last nerve.

And I wonder why I have such a high stress level? It'll be a miracle if I don't get an ulcer by next year.

I thought angrily. Why couldn't there just be two separate school buildings? One for the Day Class, and the other for the Night Class? It would make things a lot easier. Just then I felt a hand on my shoulder. I whipped around, luckily the girl had taken off, so it was just me and this other person. I immediately found my self looking directly into Kaname Kuran's mahogany eyes.

"Hello Yuki. Thank you for keeping those girls at bay. We'd all be lost without you."

He said smiling, his voice sounding so much like velvet that I could if I wanted to touch it.

"Oh! Thank you! But it's nothing really. You don't have to thank me. It's what I do every evening!"

Dammit. Why couldn't I just have a normal conversation with him? I'm such a dork!

"Either way, I just wanted to make sure you're okay. You seem stressed."

I SEEM stressed? Let me tell you a little bit about why my brain goes to mush every single god damned evening.

I thought bitterly. It wasn't that I hate those girls, I just hate the way they fall over every boy in the Night Class. That's what pisses me off. I was about to tell him everything was fine when I was snatched out of Kaname's grip. I turned my head, only to see Zero's cold silver eyes looking at Kaname with flat hatred.

"Don't you think you should be getting to class Kuran?"

I winced mentally at the way he spat Kaname's last name out. It was dripping with venom. Kaname just gave Zero a cold smile.

"You're mean Kiryu."

Then he disappeared into the crowd of vampires. I sighed. My heart going at a thousand miles an hour. Zero turned to me.

Here it comes. I though, stiffened, preparing myself for the verbal beating I was about to receive. Instead Zero just looked at me and said simply.

"Why do you yearn for him?"

"Huh?" I said confused. I had thought that Zero would have given me some hate ridden comment about vampires and why I should steer clear of them. This was totally unexpected.

"Um well, he saved my life ten years ago, and he's always been very kind to me. So, yeah I guess that's why."

Zero just shook his head, and sauntered off. I sighed, even if Zero was a vampire now (decent mind you) he still carried a deeply ingrained loathing of those "beasts in human form" that no matter how much time passed could not be gotten rid of. I turned in the other direction. The moon was beginning to rise. A ghostly white eye that seemed to see all and know all, silent and watching. I sighed and began to walk over to the Sun Dorm. Would life always be this dark? Little did I know I was about to get my answer much sooner than I expected.
