Ghost of You

Yuki Kuran POV

SPOILERS FOR THE VAMPIRE KNIGHT 8 ONWARDS SO DON'T READ IT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW =).

AN- I couldn't resists doing a Zero and Yuki fanfic... This is a few months after the stuff in the 10th manga took place, probably before the 11th or something. I'm not really keeping to one fixed time period, I write better when I'm able to write more freely, so I apologise if there are inaccuracies.

Anyway, it's basically about Yuki having trouble letting go of Zero despite the fact they can never be together, and because she loves Kaname as well. I wanted to keep it somewhat accurate because I didn't want it to become one of those fanfics where the characters act in a way you know they wouldn't... It was inspired by Selena Gomez's AMAZING song, Ghost of you I think it suits Yuki and Zero so well; I just had to use the lyrics (which have been put in italics for convenience!) Please check it out, this song is beautiful. Enjoy I'll update as soon as I can.

A small sound escapes from my lips, a sound so small that it doesn't even make a sound really, and the only reason I noticed it at all was because I felt my mouth open in slight surprise. Regardless, my body tenses a little feeling the blood being drawn from my neck, despite the fact he's taken it so many times before. Some how I know as well as he that…this time is different, it's the last time. He's so gentle it's cruel considering all the pain I've caused him, still he embraces me tenderly as a lover might…it's the way vampires are.

I feel his warmth leaving my neck as he slowly pulls away, being careful not to let his fangs graze me any further. He looks down at me as he always does, glaring at me as if I don't understand his pain. I stare into his eyes my expression neutral, because I know if I were to say or do anything reflecting my true emotions I'd fall to bits before him.

I suddenly feel his arms holding me tightly, and his face closes in on mine. I already know what's coming yet I still can't stop my heart from pounding madly in my chest. And now he's kissing me tenderly, letting his feelings be known in this way, because…. A thousand words could not express to me how much he cares as much as this one amazing kiss. And I kiss him back, I love him too! Every inch of my body loves him! It's like I'm screaming it! It's like I'm begging him to never stop! And now as my brief moment of bliss comes to an end, and his soft lips cease, slowly pulling back, I feel myself leaning forward as if to say, 'No don't leave me.'

I'd been floating and as he pulls my body against his and holds me in his arms I feel myself falling back down, reawakening to the grim realisation that we are now enemies…and we are not see one another again. If we meet again….one of us will die. I vow to run, and to never allow him to catch up, if it gives him a reason to exist.

We part and the aching in my chest almost burns, almost makes me want to shut myself away and never come out. Why does it have to be this way? Why must I choose between the ones I love why…It's snowing. I crouch on the floor and sob…why?...WHY does it have to be this way…Zero!

Turn my back to the door, feel so much better now, don't even try anymore, nothing left to lose, there's a force that's in the air saying don't look back nowhere, there's a force that's always there…
