Summary: To save Zero from becoming a level-E vampire he is willing to sacrifice anything, even his life. Shounen-ai/Yaoi. Kaname x Zero.
Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight.
AN: Wow I cant believe this... I didn't think I would post anything on here and I especially wasn't thinking it would be of Vampire Knight if I did. Anyway this is my first story and constructive criticism is good? There is probably a lot of OOCness. Sorry, I tried my best.

Chapter 1-Beginning of the start
Zero panted heavily as he struggled to stand, the hunger for blood almost too much to bear. He leaned on the nearby table in the living room of his dorm room. Resting for only a second, he stumbled into the kitchen and opened the bottle of blood tablet and dissolved one into a glass of water sitting of the counter.
After downing the glass he waited for the tablet to take it's affect. After a minute his shaking stopped and his breathing returned to normal. He waited a little longer before trying to walk.
'These attacks are getting worse every time! Soon the tablets wont be enough.' Zero punched the wall next to him leaving a fist shaped dent. 'It's all that damn vampire's fault.'
Zero leaned against the wall and slid down to the ground. He buried his face in his hands and screamed in frustration. He felt tears start to form in his eyes and rubbed them furiously. 'No!'
He took a deep breath trying to calm down. 'I will not cry.'
He stood and slowly made his way to his bedroom at the end of the hallway. Upon entering he say that outside his window the sun was already starting to set. He was late. 'Again.' He grabbed his uniform jacket off the floor and pulled it on. He tried and smooth out as many wrinkles as he could.
Before leaving he looked into the mirror to see that his eyes were a little red from earlier but barley noticeable. 'Good,' he thought. 'Don't want Yuuki to worry.'
He sighed and grabbed bloody rose from the shelf before heading towards the door. He exited, locking the door behind him. He would deal with his problems later. Right now he had a job to do.

As he approached the gates to the night class dorms he saw Yuuki trying to get the girls back to their rooms before the night class appeared. Apparently she was doing a very bad job because the started to open. He could hear the high pitched screams of the girls "Kya! They're so handsome!"
'Tch. Annoying people. If only they knew the truth. I wonder if they would still worship them.'
He watched as they all ran past Yuuki, knocking her down. He was about to help her when he saw Kuran Kaname approach her and offer his hand. She looked surprised and jumped up. He couldn't hear what they were saying but Yuuki was being glared at by the rest of the female students.
He hurried over when he saw Kaname raise a hand to pet her head but grabbed it before he could touch her. He glared at him.
"Zero!? What are you doing?" Yuuki yelled, shocked at Zero's actions.
He simply ignored her and kept his eyes on Kaname. "class is starting Kuran." He only smirk and pulled his hand away. He looked over a Yuuki and smiled before turning to leave. " Your scaring me Mr.Prefect" As he walked off Both Zero and Yuuki seethed. Yuuki at Zero for being rude to Kaname and Zero for the fact that Kuran Kaname irritated him. 'Stupid pure blood'
Zero watched as two girls went up to Kaname and handed him a rose. He accepted and continued to walk to class. The girls looked like they were about to faint. 'Idiots.'
He turned to Yuuki who was still staring after her precious Kaname-sama. "I don't care about how much you suck up to Kuran, but you have to remember the rules."
She blushed. "I know! They're different from us." Her voice softened at the last part, almost sounding sad and she still stared. Zero shrugged and headed off a different direction to patrol the other parts of the school grounds, leaving Yuuki to her thoughts.

Kaname sat in class looking out the window at Zero. He watched as he walked around, checking for vampires. After circling the second time he saw him climb into his usual tree. The tree was an old sakura tree which had been there since before the school and was dying slowly. Even though is was dying it was still a magnificent tree
It was probably one of the most beautiful things here. 'Besides my lovely ex-human.' In the spring the leaves would be a pretty shade of pink and the cherry blossoms would be blooming everywhere. Even in winter it was magnificent. When all the leaves fell of and the ice covered it, it would be covered in icicles everywhere on every branch and looked like glass.
His thoughts traveled back to the ex-human. 'A truly magnificent creature.' He turned back to facing the front. 'Tonight is the night. I've waited too long.' he smirked and stood from his desk, heading out of the class room and down the hall. 'Tonight I will mark you as mine.'

After having circled the perimeter of the grounds and finding that nothing was probably going to happen, Zero decided to climb his favorite tree and sit to think.
'Why me!?' he thought. 'Why didn't he just kill me? It would have been better than being one of the creatures I hate most!' He gripped the bark of the tree and growled. Usually when out here alone his thoughts turned to that dreadful night four years ago. To the day he was turned.
'Why must I suffer like this?' He looked down at the bloody rose in his hand. He had thought about it many times. One shot and all would be over. But he never could do it. Even though he hated being a vampire he still had to get revenger for what they did to him and his family.
He sighed adjusted so he was leaning him back against the trunk. He looked up into the branches and thought he saw a pair of eyes staring back at him. He blinked and they were gone.
"Must be from lack of sleep. I must be seeing things." he mumbled to him self.
"I don't think you were seeing things, Kiryuu-kun." He was so startled by the voice that whispered in his ear the he lost his balance and fell out of the tree. Before he could hit the ground he felt someone catch him. 'What the...?'
He looked up to see Kaname smirking down at him. He blinked before he realized Kaname was still holding him bridal style. His cheeks flushed a little in embarrassment. "Let me go bastard!" he struggled but to no avail. Kaname, being a pure blood, was a stronger than him.
Kaname just chuckled and dropped him, making him land of his ass. "What the hell was that for!" Zero screamed at him.
"You said to let go." Zero glared
"I never said to drop me!"
"You never said not to."
Zero growled. "Ass hole." he stood and dusted himself off. "What are you doing out here anyway? Skipping out on class?"
" I decided to take a walk." Kaname watched as Zero huffed and crossed his arms, pouting. 'Cute.'
"Well, go walk somewhere else. I don't want you here." Zero sat down near the base of the tree.
Kaname sat next to him. "What if I want to be here?"
"Whatever just don't bother me."
Zero closed his eyes and sat there. It was surprisingly quiet. He though Kaname came to harass him some more. He heard the sound of clothes rustling and thought Kaname had left but practically jumped out of his skin when he felt warm breath tickle his ear.
"I want you"
Zero froze when he heard this. At first he thought he heard wrong since it had been whispered so quietly. But then he knew he heard right when he felt something warm and wet lick him ear. He suppressed a shudder. 'What the hell is going on?'
He started to panic and turned his head to see Kaname staring at him with lust filled eyes. "W-what are y-you doing?" He stuttered. He tried to push him away but failed. Kaname grabbed his hands and pulled off his tie and used it to bind them together behind his back.
"Stop it! What the hell is your problem!?"
Kaname ignored him and moved his head closer. When Zero moved his head away, Kaname grabbed a fist full of his hair and yanked him so he was facing Kaname. "Leave me alone!" Zero kept struggling but it was useless. Kaname kept moving in and finally closed the distance. Zero froze when he felt Kaname's lips on his, eyes wide in shock.
