The Promise
The sky was full of diamonds resting on a black satin sheet, while he looked up seeing a couple of shooting stars fall. Just what was he doing before he fell asleep? A man was coming near him, and he wanted to scream out in shock, he had blood-red eyes and his fangs were inside a girl's neck, he was so fascinated that he couldn't move. He watched her long strands of light-blonde hair caked with blood, and Zero wondered who she was, her screams were slowly dying and he just couldn't move. But something that was stuck on the woman's back was what had caught his attention. It was a pair of wings that were once a pure white color now turning into the color of her sacred blood. Did the woman knew who he is, but why is the man drinking her blood?
The thing dropped the now dried shell of a human and smirked seeing him standing by the swings. He wasn't sure how he had gotten there, but that dead woman had told him someone will be picking him up, but when? He watched the man walk slowly towards him, his bloodied fangs shined under the amber of the park's lights, and Zero looked at him with frighten eyes. He was only four, and he didn't know anything.
It let out an ugly screech and Zero was on the ground with the man close to him. He felt the fangs pierced his soft skin drinking him, and to his shock someone had shoved his attacker off him. Zero's neck was bloodied by the man's sharp fangs, and his blood was oozing out of the wound, he covered his neck with his slightly dirtier hand trying to see if it would stop. His wide lavender eyes landed on a man with a black button up shirt and black pants. The wind ruffled his short brunette hair, Zero looked at him with tears in his eyes. His white robe was slowly regenerating back to its normal state that was before.
"You, you're an─" the thing laughed then launched at his savior who dodged him before he could inflict a wound. It laughed out loud making Zero wince, the laugh sounded dry and dead, no humor in it. But the thing escaped into the woods, his savior was about to go after it, but then looked at him with a worried expression. He sighed and stayed with the child who looked like he was in shock.
He watched the man walk up to him and smiled, he knelt in front of him and stretched his hand out. His reddish-brown eyes held so much warmth that it belonged to a father who loved his child so much. Zero watched the eyes turn slightly red, but he didn't care. The man save him, so he deserved to be trusted. Right? The wind rustled the trees, dust, leaves and flower petals came from the floor making it give a mystic flow around them. Both their hair and clothes (robes for Zero) flowed around them.
Zero still stared at the offered hand and slowly brought it towards the larger one. The older man smiled bringing the child towards him and both walked out of the now windy park. After they walked for a while the stranger held Zero close to his chest. Zero was held by the man and he snuggled feeling safe, so he closed his eyes drifting off to sleep.
"─ don't know where he came from. His clothes are robes made of the finest silk and satin, and there was an angel protecting him. But sadly she died turning into glittery dust after I scared the Level E off."
Zero woke up to see a man with sandy-colored hair tied in a low ponytail. His lavender eyes landed on the other man who saved him from the vampire. Then his eyes landed to another boy who was looking at him with a blank gaze. He had chocolate-brown hair with reddish-brown eyes, he looked a couple of years older than him, give or take. He watched the other boy look deep into his eyes, then a knock came and the sandy haired-man went to get the door. No later than two minutes passed when he entered the room with a beautiful woman and a girl around his age walking on her side clutching her hand. Zero stared at them with curious eyes, he looked back at the boy who took his hand on his clutching it slowly without a care in the world.
"Kaname take him to his room and show him around," his savior told the little boy who was next to him, still holding his hand.
Kaname nodded, he stood from the couch still holding Zero's hand and they left. Zero winced from the pain on his neck, he put his hand over the patched up skin, and wondered if the stranger did it or the girly man? He wasn't sure. They walked up the stairs passing two─ three doors and made it to the fourth door. The other boy opened it revealing a big room with a double bed in the middle of the room, a window with a nook was facing the bed. A closet was more on the other side of the room with a mirror as the door, a nightstand, nothing much.
"I'm Kaname and you will live in this house along with that insane father-obsessed man." the chocolate-brown haired boy said with a monotone voice making Zero look at him.
"..."
"What did you say?" he asked seeing Zero blush and fiddled with his fingers.
"Thank you." Zero smiled beautifully at Kaname making him blush and look away.
"No problem. Come on, let's go find Cross." Kaname took hold of Zero's small hand in his and led him back to the dinning room, with that same blush.
Zero smiled and followed him contentedly, he didn't know where he was, and they all seem to be a nice family. He will like it here. They made it into the kitchen seeing the three adults sitting on the table and the small girl looking bored on her mother's lap. Zero shyly peaked at the adults of the children and found them silently talking to each other with serious faces.
"Hi~ My name is Kaien Cross, but you can call me daddy." Kaien said seeing Zero and Kaname holding hands.
"Hello Zero, I'm Haruka, my wife Juri and I see you met our oldest son, Kaname. This is our daughter Yuki." his savior said motioning to each of them.
"Hi, my name is Zero," he gave them the beautiful smile he gave Kaname and they all had awed expressions.
"That's my son! He inherited that smile from me!" Cross threw his arms around the small figure, bringing Zero to himself, he nuzzled his hair.
"Daddy─ can't breath..." Zero felt the hug get tighter and tears of joy sprang free from the older man.
"He called me daddy!" Kaien sobbed.
"Let him go now," Kaname gave him a blank─ yet hints of a glare look.
Zero felt the arms around his small frame disappear and he looked at the others, he saw the girl─ Yuki blush his way and looked away seeing his gaze on her. His eyes landed on Kaname who was staring at him with a fascinated look. Zero blushed taking back his hand and looked down fiddling with the string on his slightly baggy shirt.
"Kids, why don't you go play in the living room," Juri smiled ushering them out of the kitchen.
"So you're planning to have Noir train him to become a hunter?" Haruka asked putting both his hands on the table. His voice sounded uncertain about that idea.
"It's the only way to have his secret hidden. No one will suspect him to be..." Kaien sighed not finishing.
"All right, but once he reaches a certain age, he might get his wings." Juri said with a worried tone. They already gathered that Zero was an angel and will try to hide him, the deceased angel who was with him must have been his caretaker, but failed and took upon themselves to care for the silverette.
"We'll have Kaname to watch over him, after all, he his smart for his age." Haruka explained.
"Yes, and Noir─"
"He's a hunter! If he found out then he might tell!" Juri said with widening eyes.
"I think he might not like the kid." Haruka grimaced hearing the children's laughter.
"Kaname will secretly watch over him, so have him come over and I could send Zero over for a couple of days. Then when the new school opens, they would be together 24/7. Until then Kaname and Zero will be spending time with each other for a long time." Kaien smiled picturing his son and Kaname playing together.
"Yes," both King and Queen agreed with a smile.
"Hi," a small shy voice said making Zero look at the girl with long brown hair.
"Hi... Yuki!" Zero said proud of himself for remembering her name.
"Where do you come from?" the girl asked sitting down where her big brother and Zero sat in front of the small fireplace.
Zero tried hard to remember where he came from, but nothing came to mind. It was all blank, he tried harder until he felt his head hurt from all the thinking. "I'm not sure..." he finally answered truthfully.
"It's OK. Mr. Cross will take very good care of you." Yuki smiled while looking at the boy, he wore one of Kaname's shirts with shorts that were too big for him to wear.
"He told me to call him daddy..." Zero didn't feel right saying that name.
"Don't listen to him, he just wants attention." Kaname spoke for the first time making both kids look at him.
"Big brother don't be mean." Yuki scolded her big brother halfheartedly.
Zero smiled seeing Kaname look away from her, but he caught the small smile decorating his cute face. They talked, played and laughed getting to know each other more and more. Yuki had yawned and left them to go to her mother. Kaname and Zero were laying on their stomachs seeing the fire, both resting from their activities. Kaname glanced at Zero seeing that pretty smile decorating his pale features, until Zero looked at him. Both held eye contact and Zero smiled making Kaname freeze then he gave him his own smile. Zero felt his heart flutter inside, he really liked Kaname, which he didn't realize he had spoken it out loud.
"I like you too Zero," Kaname said in a very soft voice.
"Then we should get married when we get older!" Zero stood on his socked-covered feet and made him to stand too. Yuki had told him about human getting together with the ones they like since Zero wasn't familiar with anything─yet. Zero had to really look up at him, Kaname was a bit taller than him by a lot. Being only four years old can make you feel so not tall.
"All right," Kaname found it cute that Zero had propose Kaname. He knew about marriages and you had to marry the one you love, but Kaname might make an exception with the unique child.
Both giggled not knowing three adults had heard their conversation. Said three adults all began to smile at Zero's innocence. Zero felt sleepy and was on the ground with his back closing his eyes drifting off to dreamland.
Months have passed, Kaname and Zero had grown to be closer. They were playing outside the twilight sky showed them that it was slightly late for the silverette. Zero was looking up at the sky, he felt his heart ache every time his eyes landed on the sky. He didn't know why, but he wanted to know who he really is and what had happened to him not to remember his past. A shooting star was shown and excitement suddenly showed inside his whole being, he ran after it ignoring Kaname's shouts for him to return.
He ran feeling something inside his chest beat, and it was not his heart. Zero couldn't seem to catch the falling star. He didn't know what was going on, but he needed to find the star. Something in his heart screamed to go where the star will land, he heard shouts of Kaien and Kaname was right next to him in no later than a few seconds.
"Where are we going?" he asked without a trace of tiredness in his voice.
"I wanna catch the star!" Zero said out of breath with his eyes wide and innocent.
Kaname's wide eyes looked up to see a falling star, he didn't know why Zero wanted to catch it. But if it brought him happiness, then Kaname will catch it. If it really was falling their way. His eyes landed on the pure happiness on his silverette's eyes, he smiled feeling warm and ticklish inside his stomach. Zero lost the star and both stopped, it wasn't falling anymore, so it probably landed already? Zero wanted to cry, he hiccupped a few times trying hard not to sob in front of his dear beloved.
"It's all right Zero. We may not catch them tonight, but there will be other nights to catch them." Kaname pulled him to a hug feeling the smaller body tremble.
"Can it only be us two," Zero peeked up seeing a warm smile directed only at him.
"Promise," Kaname smiled rubbing his forehead towards Zero's giving him a smile, he closed his eyes feeling his heart thump hard inside his undeveloped chest. Zero smiled snuggling closer to the pureblood and sighed contentedly.
Both had went back to the silverette's home to go to sleep, it was passed his bedtime and Zero really wanted to sleep. Kaien hugged Zero to his chest squealing like a little girl who had bought her first Barbie doll all on her own─ and hugged the little boy who was too sleepy to react. Kaien put both children to sleep, he was glad to have someone else play with Zero instead of the boy growing up all sour.
Kaname felt Zero snuggle closer and he smiled, he was on his side facing Zero's tired face. Zero smiled looking at Kaname in the eyes, he rested his head on the older boy's shoulder comfortably. Zero glanced at the dark sky filled with beautiful diamonds and he looked back at Kaname with another cheesy smile before closing his eyes.
"I promise to always be by your side, in these months you became important to me." Kaname said putting a small hand around the smaller boy's back and brought him closer.
"I always want to be by your side promise..." Zero spoke in a very sleepy voice.
The years slowly began to move in and the boys have come and go to each other's house. Now that Zero is twelve years old he has been extremely happy. He wanted to hug Kaname every time he see's the older boy. Zero has been too innocent to realize the gazes Kaname has been sending him, of course he being sixteen─ hormones have hit him hard. And Zero still being young and innocent, he didn't want to scare the younger teen.
Both were now inside the house, Kaname sat on a stool watching the silverette cook something for them to eat while Kaien had gone out to do some work. Zero was cooking some BBQ chicken with vegetables and rice. He wore his plain white apron, he was glad that he had gone with his stepfather to the store. If he didn't then he would have gotten a frilly pink one just like the one the older man had. He shivered in a bad way.
"I have to tell you something." Kaname sighed looking down the floor.
Zero looked at him. Something in his voice didn't sound right and Zero didn't know if he will like what the pureblood had to say. "What happened?" Zero made sure the stove was off before he walked up to the vampire and sat right in front of him.
"I have to go away for a while, it's going to take two years. I don't want to go, but I have to..." Kaname sighed looking into the silverette's lavender eyes with so much pain.
"Why? What's going on? Kaname, please before you leave... I want to know what you really are. Whenever Cross or I get injured and blood is spilled your eyes turn red. I want to know if you're human or..." Zero didn't know what else to say, he was scared of the truth.
"Zero, if I tell you what I am, promise you will still be by my side." Kaname said holding the boy's gaze.
"I will not run away. We made a promise to always be by each other's side no matter what." Zero walked towards him and hugged him in an innocent manner. Kaname froze, he was frozen for a couple of seconds before he closed his arms around the slim waist.
"That we did," Kaname smiled smelling the beautiful fresh clean scent coming from the human.
"Will you tell me!" Zero said in excitement still hugging the older teen.
"I'm a vampire," Kaname said and held on tight when he felt the boy tense.
Zero looked up and he looked down, no one made a move. Both held their gazes and Zero wanted to laugh for the joke, but he didn't see anything amusing in Kaname's eyes. Zero slowly closed his eyes gulping lightly and got out of the older teen's hold. He walked backwards feeling his heart beat faster and harder─ it felt that it was going to jump out of his rib cage! He wondered why?
"Please don't leave me," Kaname got up and didn't waste a precious heartbeat to hold the small boy who was still in shock.
"I'm not going to leave you! I'm just shock, that's all..." Kaname smiled after he heard Zero. "But I want to see your teeth!" Zero looked up at the taller teen with an excitement
Kaname smiled feeling his heart flutter and slowly opened his mouth to show the slightly sharp canines. Zero saw them and had his wide innocence written all over his child-like face. He had never noticed Kaname's teeth before, maybe because he shies away from the older teen's mouth. For the first time ever, Zero felt his heart jump and his tummy go crazy with butterflies. He didn't know what it was, but Zero liked the feeling.
"Cool!" Zero leaned forward taking a closer look, before this he had never believed of supernatural beings. But now that he is seeing Kaname, he will start to find more of his kind.
"But Zero, today is my last day, I have to go to Europe and see what we need to do. My kind is being slaughtered over there and as prince, it is also my duty. But I will be back for when the new school opens. I was told that the max will be two years, but I don't know?" Kaname sighed seeing Zero's face fall completely.
"Don't leave me, I don't know what to do without you!" Zero hugged Kaname.
"I'll be back for good and I will never leave you alone. We promise, we can even make a blood promise." Kaname smiled, a blood promise is a very sacred. If two vampires use such a thing then they will have to finish the promise no matter what events are thrown their way. A small scar will appear at the palm of their hands until they finished their blood promise, then it will disappear. Kaname sliced his palm and Zero watched the beautiful liquid flow out of the small wound.
"Blood promise..." Zero watched as Kaname sliced his own palm and he saw the crimson eyes looking at the wound hungrily.
Then, Kaname put both palms and they began to beat. "With this I, Kaname Kuran make a blood promise to come back to your side. No matter what obstacle appears, I will always be by your side now and forever." he nodded for Zero to say what he had just said.
"With this I, Zero make a blood promise to wait for you. No matter what obstacle appears, I will always wait for you now and forever." it felt as if his mouth was moving all on its own. And his palm began to feel very warm, then hot. Zero winced at the heat, and it began to cool down feeling like ants were crawling over his wound until he felt the wound cool off.
Both palms glowed and it faded, Zero looked down to his left palm, he saw a small scar. And if he looked closer the scar was a rose with vines around it. He looked at Kaname who also had a small scar like his own, he smiled. He didn't know why, but that promise might turn out to be more. Kaname hugged Zero one last time and kissed his cheek.
"I'll see you in two years," Kaname was walking outside and Zero accompanied him.
"All right," he smiled watching the handsome brunette walk away.
The wind blew and Zero watched the older teen go inside the limo and it took off to god knows where. Zero sighed closing the door, his heart broke seeing the person he cares about so much leave. It felt like his colors went to gray, Zero had tears run down his face and he sighed closing the door behind him making sure it was locked. He walked the house and saw it all big and empty, he didn't want to be there anymore. He wished Kaien would hurry up and come home.
First chapter up! Next one soon!~
