Title: Connected

Character/Pairing: Yuuki, Zero/Yuuki,

Warning: Spoilers on the last few chapters

A/N: So, basically, the third story inspired by the last few chapters! I feel irritated at myself now.

Summary: They aren't so different, after all, Yuuki and that little girl who use to tease Zero.

...

She feels so far removed from that girl in her memories, the girl who teased Zero and laughed with her best friend. Over time, she feels closer to her, remembers her a little better. Sometimes she doesn't feel like she's changed at all.

(Except when she does.)

There are big differences, a clinical detachment that she has sometimes when she reflects. She should have asked immediately, should have realized what Kaname did with Zero, should have--there were a lot of things in retrospect that she never noticed.

Then she thinks of Zero and something (big, huge, engulfing) breaks and she doesn't feel all that different from that girl who used to love Zero but never knew it.

She only feel s more broken, if anything.
