Chapter one : Snow
RIMA
She looked out the window of her classroom.
The moonlight made the snow that fell peacefully glow. It turned everything white, it made everything beautiful. It gave her a peaceful feeling.
She couldnt help but smile to herself.
It was that time of year again. The holiday season. She looked over her shoulder and smiled at Shiki. She couldn't help it, the feeling came so natural to her. If she was happy, she wanted to include him in it.
He gave her that easy lazy smile only she ever got to witness.
As she looked back out the window she couldn't help but think to herself, the season of love.
Next to Valentines Day the holiday season was the best time of year to love. Everything seemed like magic.
The lights, the white snow, the peaceful warm feeling. She loved it all. But most importantly maybe she would have the courage this year to tell him how she felt.
"Rima, are you alright? You're staring at nothing" Shiki's voice broke her chain of thought.
She looked into his deep blue eyes, felt the warmth there and remembering what she was just thinking about she felt her face turn hot. Before he could notice she quickly turned to look away.
"I- it's just that I love the snow is all" Rima quickly amended softly tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
He made her feel nervous, out of place and she loved it. Shy? She wasn't, but with him, anything was possible.
SHe felt herself go stiff and a little breathless when he leaned his body into hers and looked out the window.
After a minute he turned to look at her, only this time she couldn't help but be trapped in his gaze.
He was so close she could easily see the veins that danced underneath his skin with blood, his perfect nose, the way his face glowed against the windows lighting, his smooth lips...
"It is beautiful" he said softly before returning to his seat.
"I thought you didn't like the snow" she teased smiling at him hoping to appear nonchalant.
"Looking at you, I never realized it could calm vampires."
"Who knew right?" she smiled at him.
Before he could answer, Kaname lightly closed his book and the rest of the students followed and with a respectful bow, started to leave the room.
As always Shiki and Rima's pace were kept in sync to one anothers, but instead of going towards the moon dormitory, she started to make her way to the open campus area.
A thin layer of white had settled itself all around them. Shiki watched as she wordlessly walked towards the openness of it all and just stood there with her palm out as the flakes settled in her hands before melting away.
It's beautiful she thought to herself. She looked over her shoulder and sent him a warm smile, inviting him to join her in her moment of bliss.
Watching her carefully Shiki joined her and relaxed under the glow of the moon as the snow showered them in a slow light speed.
"I wonder what it feels like, the snow" she thought aloud.
"We cant feel it, but humans say that its cold and can even numb you. Such a feeling." she said lifting her face to the sky and closing her eyes.
"I wonder too" Shiki said in a low soft voice looking at her.
I wonder if I can tell him how I feel she thought again. This was the perfect chance. Under the full moon, with the still snow that fell around them, yes she decided it was the perfect chance.
Taking a deep breath and feeling her heart start to race she gathered her courage before it left her.
"Shiki..." turning to face him she saw the spark in his eyes and looked away feeling lost and scared.
"Hmm?" he said still looking at her.
She took a deep breath.
"What am I to you?" she asked clenching her fists.
"Hmmm?" She knew the question took him completely by surprise.
"Rima whats wrong?" he asked turning to face her fully.
"What am I to you?" she asked again looking him dead in the eye.
"Rima..." he started. He looked away then began again getting closer to her.
"Rima..."
This is it she thought to herself. He was either going to tell her what she wanted to hear, or break her heart.
The intensity of his eyes made her feel safe, loved and no longer scared.
"You're the most-"
And just like that what he was about to say was cut off when the impact of a flying snowball hit his head and burst into hundreds of tiny soft flakes.
"Hahahaha! You should have seen your face Shiki!" came Aidou's laughing voice towards them followed by a laughing Ichijo, Ruka and Akatsuki.
"I told you that I could hit him!" he boasted.
"You win" Ichijo said taking out his blood pills and giving them to him.
Shiki and Rima didn't know what to say, instead they started at them then at each other. For a minute Rima didn't know what he was going to do then just like a guy he bent down to scrape up some snow and hardened it into a ball in a quick swift delicate motion that Aidou didn't have enough time to dodge it as it came in contact with his face.
"Bad mistake" he laughed.
"Im ICE remember?" he said getting to his feet. And just like boys, they began to cover one another with balls of snow and ice.
Rima couldn't help but laugh, even when she felt hurt. What is this feeling? she wondered. It hurts, yet Im laughing.
"Boys" came Rukas voice beside her.
"You wanna go?" she asked as she looked at the unfolding snow battle slowly shaking her head.
At that point all four boys were too engrossed in their fight to notice that the two girls walked away.
In silence they walked under the falling snow.
So theres the first chapter. Let me know what you think ^^
