A Secrete Affair with Kaname Kuran

Disclaimer: I don't own Vampire Knight or its characters.

It was the first day at Cross Academy all the students were arriving to start school. Headmaster Cross was with his Daughter Yuki at the gates of the Academy waiting for an extraordinary young woman. He had promised her Mother he would meet her at the gates although he didn't understand why the Mother was so adamant about him meeting her first thing. A carriage arrived at the gates, and came to a stop the driver got off and went to the man at the gate asking, "Are you Headmaster Cross?"

He nodded the man knocked on the door and then stepped away. An old woman stepped out and put a hand into the carriage. He watched as a younger woman cautiously stepped out. As she settled on the ground, he found that she was as tall as Yuki she had modified her uniform to go to her ankles he watched as she fidgeted until the woman moved towards him with the girl behind her almost as if the girl was hiding from him. The elderly woman handed him an envelope saying, "Everything you need to know about the girl is in here." She pushed the girl next to Yuki saying, "See that you take great care of her Miss Cross." She turned and left getting into the carriage without a single word.

Yuki smiled at her noting her long brown hair that matched her own only this girl's hair was longer and had curls in it. Her eyes were a lovely shade of brown much like her own if she didn't know any better she would say that this girl could pass for her sister. She took the girl's hand as her Father motioned for them to follow. She looked at the very nervous girl saying, "I'm Yuki Cross what would your name be?"

She looked at her saying very softly, "Naomi Tashio" They walked the rest of the way to the Headmaster's office silently. It was a very long and strangely quiet walk. Yuki wasn't sure if she could keep trying to talk with Naomi or not she seemed terribly stressed.

As they entered the office, she noticed Naomi holding her tightly almost as if she was afraid. Cross opened the package reading a letter that came with it before looking at the girl saying, "Your mother included a doctor's note about the reason for your need to change the uniform. She also mentions why you are extremely shy, and your fear of all men. I can accommodate you Miss Tashio I will have Yuki escort you everywhere I will have Zero do it with her as often as possible so that you can learn to trust him. I have signed the nondisclosure agreement, so no one will know unless you tell them. I sincerely hope you can come out of your shell here. I am sure Yuki will be one of many friends you will gain here."

She fidgeted before softly replying, "Thank you, sir; I know I am a lot to take on no other school would accept me as I am." He watched as her hands twisted around her arm, and how her feet wouldn't stay still while she was talking to him. He felt sorry for the poor girl he looked over as the door opened he smiled saying, "Zero, please come in so I can introduce you to Naomi. Zero you, and Yuki will be escorting her everywhere. She is very shy, and has a fear of men so you will need to gain her trust should Yuki be unavailable."

Zero turned to get a better look at Naomi, and his jaw almost dropped. She looked a lot like Yuki, but her skin was porcelain white, and she looked like she may break if not handled gently. Another big difference was her eyes while they were the same color he could clearly see fear in them. This young woman had been through a lot already in her young life in a way she was much like him. Headmaster Cross spoke up saying, "Her Mother wishes us to help her socialize, and make friends that won't let her close herself off from the world."

Zero finally stopped staring at Naomi saying, "Nice to meet you. Yuki, and I are perfects, so we are school security it's our job to protect all the students in the Academy. We will do our best to put your fears to rest, so you don't feel the need to have us around."

Yuki glared at him yelling, "Zero do you have to be so rude?" She felt a trembling hand touch her gently before she heard Naomi whisper, "Please don't yell it brings back bad memories for me. If you don't mind I'd like to go to my room, I am quite tired from my trip."

Yuki looked to her Father who nodded Yuki stood up, and said, "Right this way Naomi." Yuki leads her to the sun dorm, and to the room that Naomi would be staying in while she was there. Naomi saw a beautiful room with a sitting area that had a chair, bookshelf, bed, dresser, and a closet. She noticed books already in the bookshelf she looked confused until Yuki said "Your Mother told us about your issues sleeping, and what types of books you like so we thought these would help you get back to sleep on those nights you had trouble.

Naomi was near tears all she could manage was a soft, "Thank you so much for making me feel at home here. I know it is difficult and frustrating to have to babysit someone as old as I am." Naomi turned around saying, "Zero I hope I can learn to trust you or any man for that matter. Headmaster Cross told my Mother you both were attacked as well when you were younger. I hope you two will share what happened with me as it happened to me too, and I would like to try to make some sense out of what happened."
