Kaname's body shuddered slightly as the cold air nicked at his face that wasn't covered by any warm clothing. Each step he took was sounded by the crunch of the snow under him. It was nearly knee height which worried the pureblood slightly. Slowly Kaname tilted his head up and looked at the grey sky with white snow falling from it. The news stated that there was going to be a horrible snow storm for the next week. What worried him more was he got a call from Cross saying that Yuki and he were trapped in town due to roads being blocked so he had to stay with Zero and make sure he was okay.

Kaname stopped outside the barn, his attention turned towards the closed barn door. It rattled as something slammed against it on the other side. 'Perhaps it's the horse?' Kaname thought in his head and went to leave until there was a husky human breath from the other side. Kaname's eyebrows furrowed as he wondered closer to the door, his vampire ears picking up a humans breath.

"Is someone there? Help me!" Zero's voice called out from the other side of the door making Kaname's crimson eyes widen.

"Zero? Are you in there?" Kaname asked as he looked at the closed door curiously.

"Kaname! Help me out I got stuck in here!" Zero said as he pushed against the frozen door.

"How long have you been in there?" Kaname asked as he tried prying the door open.

"All night. I was worried about white Lilly and came to sleep with her. I didn't think it'd get so cold. The door froze over so I can't open it." Zero cried out as his body shivered violently.

Kaname used his pureblood strength and pulled the frozen door off its hinges. He threw the door to the side and in a matter of seconds Zero was trying to get under his shirt. "Whoa calm down," Kaname said and tried pushing the hunter away but as soon as he looked down at the hunter he seen Zero's blue lips and shuddering body. "Come on get under," Kaname sighed and pulled his shirt up allowing Zero to get under. Once Zero was under his shirt he pulled it down and watched as the hunter pressed his cold face against his chest. Kaname shuddered at the coldness.

"Thanks," Zero shakily said and heard Kaname sigh in reply.

"Let's just get you inside somewhere warm. Your body is like ice." Kaname said and both he and Zero awkwardly shuffled to Cross's house.

~20 minutes later~

Zero sat in front of the fireplace with a blanket around him, Kaname walked into the room quietly and stood beside Zero making the hunter tilt his head up to look at the pureblood. "Here," Kaname said and gave Zero a white cup filled with hot chocolate.

Zero slowly reached up and grabbed the cup gently before bringing his arm down to rest the cup on his right knee. "Thanks." Zero said and brought the cup to his lips and drank from it slowly.

"You're an idiot for staying out there all night," Kaname said and sat on the ground beside Zero. He put his cup on the ground in front of him so he was able to pull his own blanket over his shoulders to keep him warm.

"I didn't mean to stay out there for so long." Zero hissed angrily, his hand tightening the grip on the cup.

"How are you not dead?" Kaname asked and grabbed his cup and took a sip from it.

"Because white Lilly is warm so all I did was snuggle close to her." Zero stated making Kaname sigh heavily.

"You're lucky I came along when I did," Kaname started making Zero glare at him from the corner of his eye. "Or you'd be dead." Kaname finished and took another sip of his hot chocolate.

"Whatever." Zero huffed and turned his head completely away from the pureblood. Kaname looked at the hunter before bringing his cup up to his mouth to finish it off.
