The Missing Pureblood ch. 1
*Kaname*
Kaname was sitting in the dining room, waiting for Zero to come home. His dinner already eaten two hours earlier, cold, and Zero was late getting home…again. He had been fearing what this could mean. They have been arguing about time and time again for the last three months. Whenever Zero was late, he would call, claiming to have a mission. Kaname would always doubt him, and to be given the same response every time. Zero would always sigh and say, "You can call Master Yagari to confirm.", only, Kaname never would. Why would he call someone he doesn't trust and just take his word for it? Zero would normally call; only this time Zero hasn't called him to tell him he would be home late. Where is he?
*Zero*
Zero was sitting in his car at the park, where he just finished his emergency assignment. These types of missions have been occurring a lot lately, but what can he do? Usually, he would call Kaname to let him know that he would be late, but every time he called, Kaname would grill him.
*Flash Back*
(Two nights earlier)
"What do you mean you're going to be late? What did you say you were going to do again? Go on another last minute assignment? More likely going to find some whore to screw! I don't know…" Kaname said, ranting, only to be interrupted by Zero.
"You can call Master Yagari to confirm. I have told you this every time I call but you just won't. Do you know why I call you? Do you? I call because I love you and it's out of respect for you that I tell you I'm going to be late. Why you ask? Funny you should be asking that question! It's because I don't want you to worry about me. I'm tired of fighting with you every time I call, so you know what? I won't call you anymore since it won't make a difference. You're always accusing me of being unfaithful to you no matter what, so since it seems to be ALL about you," He said sarcastically, "you can accuse and yell at me all you want when I get home!" Zero yelled into the phone just before hanging up.
After that mission, he stopped by a 24hr liquor store and bought a large bottle of vodka. By the time he got home, he was shit faced drunk. He walked in the house
with his bottle in hand, almost completely gone. Kaname went to the front door, only to come up short at the sight before him. It was obvious that he had been on a mission this time. His clothes were torn with blood all over them, and ash. Kaname knew that Zero was telling the truth this time. Had he really reduced Zero to drinking and coming home drunk?
As Kaname approached Zero, Zero held up his hand to stop him. "Don…yoo…are…co..me…ay…closher…t..oo..me." (Translated: Don't you dare come any closer to me.) Zero said, and then stumbles to the stairs. Half way up the stairs, Zero passes out, falling flat on his face.
*End of Flash Back*
The ringing of his phone brought Zero back out of memory lane. Looking at the caller ID, he groaned, took a fortifying deep breath, and then answered the phone.
"Yes?" he answered flatly. "Where are you?" Kaname asked. "I'm at the park, thinking." A long pause came over the line. "When will you be home?" Kaname asked. There was another long pause and then, "Within an hour." Zero replied before hanging up. He has something to do before going home.
*Both*
Two hours later, Zero walked in the front door and took only a few steps before coming to a halt by a seething Pureblood. "You said you would be home within an hour and it's now two hours later. Where have you been?" Kaname asked, almost yelling. "I told you, I was at the park thinking. I had another last minute assignment this evening at the park. When it was finished, I just stayed there to think." Zero finished. Kaname didn't believe him, but decided he would get back to it later. "And why did you need to stay at the park to think? You could have come home to think. What was so important that it took you two hours to get home after I called you?" Kaname asked heatedly.
Zero didn't answer right away. He stood there for a moment deciding if this was the right time to bring it up. What happened next pushed him to his decision. While standing there in indecision, Kaname snapped, came over and slapped him across his face. "I'm tired of these late nights, tired of eating alone. Whatever it is that is keeping you away from me, I want you to quit it now. Call your girlfriend or the Association, which ever or both, and quit. You're mine and I won't share you anymore! THAT'S IT!" Kaname yelled, now red in the face from anger and his eyes were blood red as well.
Zero had reached his limit. He was tired of dealing with this and it was time to put it to an end. At this point, it was taking everything he had in him not to explode. "Kaname, I think we should take a break from each other for a while, to think about what we want from our relationship. To decide if we want to continue that is, and if so, what we need to do to keep from going back to the problems we are having. I have already made arrangements for a place for me to stay. I'm leaving tonight." Zero said and then walked past him to head up stairs. He heard Kaname say one more thing before he turned the corner.
Kaname was shocked. He didn't want to lose Zero. He was his everything. The only serious problem was Zero's infidelity. If only Zero had been faithful, he wouldn't be having this problem. Thing is, as a Pureblood, he's not about to go begging for Zero to stay. "Fine, leave and live with that whore you've been seeing; but know this, if you walk out that door, you're not coming back." With that, Zero rounded the corner up the stairs to pack. He didn't have much, but he packed the few items he owned, and his clothes. Before leaving, he left a check on the bed, written out to Kaname.
Once he reached the stairs, he walked down them, straight to Kaname. He handed the house keys to him and said, "I left a check-up stairs on the bed for my motorcycle. I will give you my address later in case there are any items I missed." And then Zero was gone.
Kaname was devastated. Zero left him. What did he do that would cause Zero to leave him? He went back to his office and sat down at his desk. The paper work piled up and waiting for him to look over them, but he just couldn't focus on them. His thoughts drifted back to Zero. Whoever this whore is that has stolen his Zero is going to pay for it. Tomorrow, he is going to send Kain to find out who she is so that he can eliminate her. Tomorrow, Kaname is going to start making Zero pay for being unfaithful to him.
Zero drove to his new apartment. It would be difficult to adjust to life alone again, but he could. Thank god Kaito, an old childhood friend, who is not only a hunter, but a manager/ owner to the apartment complex he is now living in. Tomorrow would be a new day, not to mention busy. In the morning, he would have to call a personal day so he could also so shopping to furnish his new home.
TBC: I was going to make this one really long, big one-shot, but decided against it. I have the next chapter ready to post, but I'm going to post this slowly. I hope you have enjoyed this chapter. Again, please review. Thank you
