A Forbidden Love

Prologue: It's Forbidden

It was a terrible morning for Yuuki Cross. She had woken up with a terrible fever and the Chairman had made her stay in bed instead of intending classes and her prefect jobs. She sighed as the cold, wet towel on her head had become warm. She sat up, the cloth falling onto her lap. She picked it up, and stood from her bed. The Chairman had told Yuuki to call him whenever she needed something. However, Yuuki being her normal un-selfish self, although feeling dizzy and sick, walked over to the bathroom herself to get another cold towel. She turned on the sink, cold water pouring out and onto Yuuki's warm hands. She sighed. The cold liquid felt so good as it surrounded her hands. She took another small towel and dunked it into the cold water. She let it soak for a couple of seconds, then taking it out and squeezing the water out. She folded it neatly and held it back to her hot forehead. She walked back to her bed and laid down tiredly.

"Nnn…" Yuuki murmured, closing her eyes, "Wonder what's Zero doing…"

"What do you mean, you idiot?"

Yuuki's eyes snapped open as she heard the familiar cool, low voice of Zero Kiryu. She tilted her head and to see Zero by her doorway. He was glaring. She watched as he approached her bed, sitting on top of it. His back was facing her and Yuuki heard him sigh. She smiled faintly.

"It's not nice to call me an idiot, Ze-" Yuuki stopped, sitting up and putting her hand over her mouth. She coughed roughly, removing her hand, then staring at the red liquid that spread over her palm, "Hm…blood."

Zero's eyes widened, quickly turning his head and body around to face Yuuki. He parted his lips slightly, as if to say something. But he said nothing and kept quiet. He simply stared into her eyes, searching, and she could see the sadness and pain in his amethyst eyes. She could also see hunger. She quickly took the wet towel and wiped the blood off, tossing the dirty cloth onto the floor. She would pick it up later.

"I'm fine." Yuuki smiled, more brighter this time, and she tangled her fingers into the other's silky, silver hair, "No need to… worry…"

Yuuki's voice faded as Zero suddenly rested his head on her shoulder. He buried his face into the crook of her neck. Was he hungry?

"…What's wrong?" Yuuki asked, wrapping her arms around the other, "Do you…need…"

Yuuki paused as Zero shook his head no.

"I'm sorry, Yuuki."

Yuuki patted Zero's head.

"Don't."

Zero pulled back and Yuuki let go. He stared deeply into Yuuki's eyes, making shivers go down her spine.

"What is it, really." Yuuki asked again, "Is something bothering you?"

"Yuuki, you…you're sick. I'm the one who did this to y-"

"No." Yuuki stated, "I'm the one who offered to help you, Zero. You were helpless. You couldn't have backed away from the offer even if you should've."

"But-" Zero pressed. He was being stubborn again.

"I'm not anemic. I'll be fine. You know that I'm just dizzy for a few days and then turn back to my normal self. Today's just one of those days where a fever accompanies it."

"…I'm sorry, Yuuki." Zero whispered as Yuuki cupped his pale cheeks.

"Don't be, Zero." Yuuki said as she tilted her head, starting to close in on Zero's face, "Don't be."

She gently pressed her lips against his, feeling the other tense under her tender touch. Although they weren't blood siblings, they were still legally adopted brother and sister. It was a forbidden love, between siblings; moreover, between human and vampire.

It was only a few days ago when Zero and Yuuki had done the unforgivable. They had both agreed that it would be the best way. Well, at least Yuuki did. Zero opposed at first, but gave up because of Yuuki's persuasive words. (He couldn't help it either)

They also agreed that they loved each other more than just family.

They would become lovers.

"Kiryu." A voice echoed through the breeze.

Zero turned around to the direction from where the voice had come from. He already knew who it was.

"Kuran." Zero growled, clutching at his Bloody Rose gun.

Kaname appeared from the shadows of the trees. The moon was out, and it shone brightly on Zero and Kaname. The courtyard was empty except the two and it was cold out; Zero could see his breath. Kaname walked closer to Zero, shoes clicking as his feet hit the cement ground. The water fountain stood in the middle of the courtyard and it was strangely not running.

Soon they were only four feet apart. Zero glared at Kaname, pointing his gun at the other's forehead. Kaname's expression was collected and calm.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you Kiryu-kun." Kaname said, staring into Zero's eyes, "I just wanted to talk."

Zero put his arms down, dropping back to his side.

"What is it?" Zero yelled, grinding his teeth. He felt so angry at just seeing the pure-blood.

"No need to be so hasty, Mr. Prefect." Kaname said, running a hand through his hair, "I heard…that you and Yuuki have…"

Zero watched as Kaname's eyes turned red and his face was starting to crack, it showed a bit of his frustration and anger.

"I hope that it is not true, that you and Yuuki are…more than just siblings…"

Zero smirked.
"And what if it was?"

Kaname grabbed Zero's collar and lifted him up from the ground. Kaname's eyes showed no mercy. Zero knew he had to act quick or he would be dead. He sighed.

"It's not true. We would never-"

Kaname let go of his grip, setting Zero back onto the ground and turned the other way, walking towards the Night Class building.

"It better be the way that you say it is, Kiryu-kun, or else I would've had to done something horrible. Possibly kill you…"

And with that Kaname disappeared into the shadows. After a long moment, Zero suddenly collapsed onto the cold ground. He covered his face with his hands and groaned in frustration. This did not seem to be going well.
