Chapter 1

Ichijou walked quickly towards his class, adjusting his red tie at the same time. He entered the class and cheerfully greeted his friends.

"Konbanwa, minna!"

But nobody answered him. Aidou and Kain were looking at a magazine. Kaname and Ruka were staring out the windows. Rima was eating her newly-opened Pocky Choco candy sticks while Shiki was just sitting there, doing nothing. The rest of the elite Night Class students were doing their own work, not even bothering to look up.

Ichijou sighed and started to walk towards his seat, mumbling something. "I'm being nice to all of you but you totally ignored me. What a--"

Suddenly, Ichijou grabbed the magazine Aidou was holding and stared at the front cover.

"What are you doing, Ichijou? You're--"

"Hey, this girl is the new model, right?" Ichijou exclaimed, ignoring the steaming Aidou.

"Ichijou, you--"

"She's in the same agency as you and Rima, right, Shiki?" Ichijou turned to Shiki and Rima. Kain was busily trying hard to prevent Aidou from hitting their Vice President with his ice weapon.

"Hn," Rima replied, still chewing on her Pocky.

"But we never meet her before," Shiki said.

"I see." Ichijou turned his attention to the magazine once again. "She's really gorgeous. Hey, Rima, aren't you afraid that she will steal your popularity?" Ichijou asked.

Rima paused and looked at the blackboard. "Nope. I have my own fan base," she said.

The moment she finished her sentence, Yagari-sensei walked into the class, ready to begin his lessons.

"Ok, guys! Go back to your own places. I'm going to start a new topic tonight," he announced and started to write something on the blackboard.

Ichijou handed Aidou the magazine and slapped his back before proceeding towards his seat. Aidou glared at the blonde and released a sigh.

Rima placed her hands below her chin as her mind started to drift off somewhere.

'It's true that she's beautiful. But I'm not going to go easy on her,' she thought. Then she stole a glance at Shiki who was sitting beside her.

'No way. Why would I feel afraid that she will steal Shiki away from me? It's not like I love Shiki or anything…' She shook her thoughts away and tried to concentrate on her sensei.

'Or do I?'


"Ok everyone! We're done for today. Thanks for your hard work," announced the modeling director, satisfied with his models.

Shiki and Rima slumped themselves on the couch, totally exhausted with their work that day. Rima rested her head on the soft cushion and massaged her temples.

"Rima," Shiki called. Rima turned her head lazily at him. "I'm thirsty."

"Not now, Shiki," Rima warned him. Shiki groaned at her reply.

Rima just smirked at his reaction. She had been giving him her blood since he refused to take in anymore blood tablet. He even passed out several times due to lack of energy. Not wanting him to suffer more, she was willing to let him drink her blood. She did it just out of concern for her best friend… her love…

"Shiki-kun? Rima-chan?"

The voice snapped Rima out of her thoughts. She looked up and saw their manager, Ayako smiling brilliantly at both of them.

"Can I interrupt both of you for a moment?" the lady asked.

"Sure," Shiki murmured. Rima gave no reaction.

"Well," Ayako started, rubbing her palms excitedly. "I'm going to introduce you to our new model, Kirihara Karen-san."

Rima flinched but she tried to keep her coolness as the girl mentioned by Ayako stepped aside. Her long, wavy blonde hair glimmered as she tossed them around. Her blue eyes sparkled when she smiled at them.

"Karen, this is Shiki Senri-kun and Touya Rima-chan. They're our hottest pair right now. Ne, Rima-chan?" Ayako said, patting Rima's shoulder. Rima snorted softly.

"Hi. My name is Kirihara Karen. Nice to meet you. Yoroshiku," Karen said, fiddling with her hair.

"Nice to meet you too," Shiki replied, making Rima turned at him abruptly. She stared at Shiki, who was smiling at Karen. 'Did I hear it correctly? Shiki greeted her?'

Rima looked down, wondering. Shiki had never bothered to react to anyone especially girls. He never bothered all those crazy fangirls from Day Class every time they passed the school gate. However, the way he looked at Karen was somehow different. 'Hey, why would I care? Even if he likes her, that is nothing to do with me…'

"Rima-chan?" Ayako called, making her jumped.

"Err yes, nice to meet you too," she stammered. "Uh, if you please excuse me."

Without looking at Shiki, she stormed out of the studio. Shiki just looked at her questioningly. He wondered what was wrong with the orange-haired vampire.

'What is wrong with me?!' Rima scolded herself mentally as she strode along the corridor. 'Why do I felt angry when Shiki smiled at her? Just some horny human!'
