VAMPIRE KNIGHT:

SHIKI AND RIMA

The UNTOLD STORY

"Hey Rima! Where's Shiki?" Ichijo called out in his, as usual, cheerful voice.

"How should I know?" she asked in a blank uninterested tone.

"Well you two are always with each other."

"Sure." She answered with a 'yeah right' look directed at Ichijo. He took that as a sign to leave her alone. He gave her another big grin and then fled up the stairs bumping into Kaname.

"Sorry Kaname." He said while bowing down immediately. Kaname smiled and patted him on the head.

"Stop treating me like that all the time. I'm not a god."

"But, you're a pureblood!" Kaname just shook his head slightly and continued his way down the stairs. Ichijo smirked, That's one thing I will always love about Kaname, he doesn't think he's that important. I sure think he is, he is my idol! He hurried the rest of the way up the stairs and rushed to Shiki's room. He opened the door to find him on his bed reading manga. "Shiki, do you know what time it is?"

"Yes, my alone time." he answered.

"No, it's Ruka's birthday party in ten. Come on!"

"Uh, why now?" he asked gloomily. He put down the "Bleach #6" and dragged his feet to Ichijo. They walked down the stairs and found the rest of the night class gathered in the lobby. Aido and Kain came rushing up to them with big boxes in their hands.

"Hey, where's your present?" Aido said questionably.

"Right here." Shiki replied as he pulled out a little wrapped scarlet box out of his pocket.

"What is it?" Kain whispered to him.

"Secret." Shiki replied. Rima rushed up to them and looked at Shiki.

Shiki winked at her. Rima showed a quick grin. The boys around them looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

"We'll leave you guys alone." Aido said as he pulled the other two away with him. Rima slightly blushed and Shiki too.

"So, what did you get for Ruka?" he asked her breaking the silence.

"Some candy. You?"

"A locket with Kaname's picture in it."

"Seriously? Ruka is gonna freak!"

"I know."

"So like you." She said grinning. He leaned over quickly and pecked her on the cheek. Rima blushed embarrassed. "Shiki…, people are watching!"

"Sorry, couldn't help myself." He replied. She took his arm and linked it with hers. They walked towards the table which the humongous birthday cake sat on. They looked at the mountains of red icing as it covered every little surface of the cake. A picture lay in the middle stuck to the icing. They rolled their eyes to see the photograph was of Kaname. Shiki took his finger and covered it all in icing. He slowly placed it in his mouth and nodded his head. "Blood flavored, cool."

Rima was just about to take a finger full of icing as well when suddenly; Ruka came walking in through the front door. She looked around shocked to see what they had done for her.

"Happy Birthday!" everyone called out. She just stood their frozen and speechless.

"Yes, we remembered." Kain told her in a relaxing tone.

"Seriously, all this is for me?" she asked.

"Yep. So let's celebrate!" Ichijo replied while he lifted up his arms. The room then again burst into conversation.

Ruka walked towards Shiki, Rima, Ichijo and Kaname. "Hello Kaname! Thank you so much for coming!" she said excitedly.

"My pleasure." He replied. Her cheeks turned a bright red. Rima took a handful of candy out of the pocket of her dress and held it out to her.

"This is for you."

"Thank you Rima, very appreciated!" she exclaimed. Rima slightly grinned and then elbowed Shiki.

"Oh right." He responded to her motion. He again took out the little scarlet box out of his pocket and gave it to her. Ruka carefully took the top of the box off and gasped.

"Thank you Shiki, it's lovely." She opened he locket to find the picture of Kaname in it. She blushed furiously and looked up at Kaname to see his reaction. Kaname just walked away from the awkward situation and headed towards some other people. "Shiki…!"

"What?" Shiki asked.

"Why? Why in front of Kaname?"

"Who cares, everybody already knows."

"Oh, whatever!"

"Oh, so you don't like it?"

"I…, I never said that."

"Exactly." Ruka rolled her eyes and punched him playfully in the arm. The birthday party passed by very slowly. They cut the cake, opened the presents and just every ordinary thing you would do at a birthday party! After the party Shiki and Rima went upstairs into Shiki's room.

Shiki closed the door behind them." Well that was…"

"Boring."

"Yeah, exactly." Shiki replied with a smile.

"So what are we going to do now?"

"How bout we read some manga?"

"You're obsessed, seriously!"

He smiled. His smiled disappeared and once again turned to his serious expression always worn on his face. "Rima.."

"What?"

"We're leaving the school soon right?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Well, I want to…"

"Want to…?"

"I want to be with you." He stammered quickly.

"Ok."

"But Rima I…, wait, did you just say yes?"

"Yeah."

"So you actually want to be with me?" he asked with one eyebrow raised.

"Is that a problem?"

"No, of course not." Shiki replied shaking his head.

"Where are we gonna go?"

"Where I've always wanted to go, Paris."

"Paris? Why?"

"Well there are tons of vampires there and I think my sister lives there too."

"You have a sister? Since when?"

"Her names Shika. Me and her aren't really close."

"Are we gonna live with her?"

"Uh, no. Visit, yes."

"Where are we gonna live then?"

"Well in an apartment or something."

"We're living together?"

"Yeah…" Shiki answered turning away from her as he got comfy in his bed."

"Well better start packing then." She randomly said breaking the awkward silence. Shiki got up from the bed and walked up to her. He held her for a minute and then gently embraced her.

"Thanks." He let go of her and took her hands in his. "Are you sure you want to do this? You don't have to…"

"No…., I want to. I will always want to be with you, got that?"

He looked into her deep blue eyes and cupped her face in his hands. She slowly moved forward and kissed him on his lips. They joined in multiple more kisses and held each other in their arms. Later they went to their own rooms and went to sleep. Well at least Rima did, Shiki was just finishing the 'Bleach' manga he had started earlier. Just when he finished the book he placed it down beside his bed and looked up at the ceiling. So Rima is coming with me. Wow, I totally thought she'd say no. Especially with me and her living together! She likes me more than I thought! His thoughts got interrupted when Ichijo walked in.

"Where've you been?" Shiki asked him curiously.

"Helping Kaname pack some stuff. I can't believe our last day at this school is tomorrow!" he exclaimed. Ichijo plopped himself on the bed beside Shiki. "So did you ask her?"

"Yeah."

"Well, how'd it go?"

"She said yes."

"I knew she would, she really loves you Shiki!"

Shiki nodded his head. "I guess she does."

"So you're going to paris with her right? Where are you gonna live?"

"In an apartment or something."

"Alone and together?"

"Yep."

"Holy! Score man." Ichijo replied holding his fist out to him. Shiki pounded it and turned the other way in his bed getting more comfterable.

Ichijo let out a huge yawn and said to Shiki, "I'm so tired. Good night." He also turned the other way and fell asleep instantly.

Shiki shook his head still amazed how fast that guy could go to sleep. He liked having his friend as his room mate. That was one thing he was going to miss about this school! But lay ahead his and Rima's future would surely be better!
