Maybe…Just Maybe
Chapter 1
It started out like any other relationship would.
As I walked amongst the busy streets I payed no attention to my surroundings –rather to "who" was in my surroundings.
A simple greeting was shared.
While being caught up with my own inner thoughts, I failed to realize that there standing right in front of me was a night beauty in his own right. Little did I know that he would become the most unforgettable person in my life. Only in a moment of an instant our bodies had collided. I jerked my body backwards and bowed my head apologetically.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you!" I peeped. A hearty chuckle was released from the man who stood before me. I lifted my gaze to meet his and it was then when his wine-colored eyes met my metallic grey ones. His chocolate colored locks fell effortlessly against his pristine face. A warm gentle smile bestowed itself upon his lips and he replied
"Nonsense, I understand it was an accident…Tell me, what is your name?
On that day I truly felt like I was the lucky one…
My face became flushed and I stammered in reply
"M-Mm-Melody."
Reaching out his hand he caught a few strands of my honey colored hair, brought it near his lips, and inhaled deeply. He then whispered breathlessly
"Melody. How beautiful."
-Present Day-
Wondering through the halls, I searched desperately for my room number.
'It has to be here somewhere' I thought.
At that moment I came across a brown box that had been imbedded into the wall, displaying the numbers "538". Glancing down at the sheet of paper that I held within my grasp I whispered
"I guess I found it…" Lifting my hand slightly I gently knocked on the door.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" placing my hand on the doorknob I pushed forward, opening the door to find myself in a plain room. The floor was laid with deep forest brown wooden tile and on either side of the room sat a small dresser accompanied by a plain yellow twin sized bed. One on the left side near the door and the other on the right side near the window.
Reaching down I gripped my suitcase, took it inside of the chamber, and plopped it on top of the bed nearest to the frame.
Standing near the window I took in the city view, it was brilliant with so many dazzling lights, traffic gathering on the streets, many people decked out in their finest party clothes. Two arms then wrapped themselves around my waist, pulling me back so that I crashed into my beloved chest.
"Melody," He whispered huskily near my ear.
A sudden click of the door jolted me out of my past recollections.
"Oh, Hi there! You must be the new student. What's your name?"
I turned to face a young petite girl with short clipped hazel colored hair and large cocoa colored eyes. She was practically beaming with joy as she approached me, excitedly extending her hand out towards me. "My name is Yuki Cross, I'm your roommate!"
Taking her hand into mine, I shook it gently and replied
"My name is Melody. It's a pleasure to meet you Yuki."
She smiled in response and continued
"Welcome to Cross Academy! I want to give you a heads up as you are my new roommate that I work as one of the school's prefects so I often don't come here to dorm until really late at night."
I shrugged my shoulders in response and countered
"As long as you don't wake me up, I'm fine with it. A job's a job, honestly what are you going to do about it?"
Nodding her head, she clasped her hands together and responded
"Great! I'm glad you understand. So how about you go ahead a put away your luggage and let me know when you're done. I'll give you a quick tour of the campus."
With that being said, I scattered all my stuff everywhere on my side of the room.
'I'll finish organizing later' I thought to myself.
Turning to Yuki I was greeted with a weary smile and she motioned for the door. Stride after stride we went weaving in and out of dormitory and school. Our adventure came to an abrupt end when a large mass of girls was spotted lobbying around the other set of dorms.
"Hey Yuki who lives in those dorm-"
Before I could even finish my sentence Yuki shot away like a bullet out of a gun and ran towards the ever growing corpus of hormonal girls. I watched as silver haired boy joined her and they had begun to try and restrain the group of girls. The sea of girls the parted to reveal beautiful model like human beings. Each one of them displaying unique genetic traits all appealing to the regular plain Jane's eyes. A good majority were sporting a pearly white smile while other were giving off the "too cool for school" vibe.
"Life goals." I muttered to myself.
"Melody?" A low warm voice quickly sent shivers of pleasure down my spine.
'No way…That voice…" I thought to myself.
Shifting slightly underneath the sheets I replayed the evening's past events through my brain. Plush lips pressed themselves against my temple and lowered down to my earlobe, fangs grazing against my ear's outer shell.
"What are you thinking about Melody?" He cooed.
Taking my time I swirled slowly, coming into contact with breath-taking wine colored orbs.
Familiar wine colored orbs.
"K-Kaname?" I sputtered under my breath.
A devious smile grace his lips and he chuckled in reply
"Why Melody, you seem as if you've seen a ghost."
I shook my head with my eyes widening.
"No…There's absolutely no way you're here right now."
His grin widened and he reached out, grasping strands of my hair in his hand as he always did.
"On contrary, I am here Melody. And I not leaving any time soon."
