"Aunty!" cried the tiny girl. I looked up at her from my crouching. My eyebrows rose as I surveyed the girl. Who would have thought that the daughter of Kaname and Yuuki Kuran, Yume, would be with me today, helping me pack my stuff?

"Yes?" My voice was dry. I had been around Yume ever since she was born 7 (vampire) years ago…in reality, she was 350 in human years but we were vampires and the years of humans were so short. Any who, I had spent enough time with her to know when she used that tone of voice, she wanted something. As usual, I was right.

"Can I have this, pleeeease?" she begged as she held out a jewelry box. Like mother, like daughter.

I smiled pleasantly. "Sure. You can have some; I already have too much stuff. But be careful that's real."

Yume squealed, a huge grin on her face as she looked through the box.

Looking at her reminded me of the children I could, should, have had if he had still been here…

"Aunty Rima, can I have this?" The brunette held up a bracelet and I nodded. "Can I also have this too?"

I was about to say yes when I stopped. Quick as lightning, I took it back and opened it, admiring the ring inside. I must have been quiet for too long so Yume poked me. "Aunty?"

I snapped out of it. "Yes?"

"So can I have it?"

"No." I shook my head. I took out the ring gently. I turned so I could stare at the ring. It was my engagement ring. At least, my second engagement ring. I still considered the ring he gave me when I met him my engagement ring. He'd had a rosy pink diamond shaped into a heart with two lighter pink diamonds on the side set in platinum. The pink matched my golden hair, and I knew made my eyes look bluer.

I brought a hand to my throat, where a silver ring with a simple sapphire in it hung from a simple chain.

I lifted it so I could see. Looking on the inside, I read the inscription that I knew by heart.

You kidnapped my heart.

Winter, 15 years ago

I sighed quietly as I hugged my knees to my chest. I was so stupid, leaving the mansion without any coat, only a thin sweater over an even thinner dress.

Yes, I know vampires aren't supposed to be cold, but it was December! I would have been happy if I had been at home, covered in a blanket, with a steaming hot chocolate with whipped cream and cinnamon on top (I drooled just thinking about it) in my hands.

I shivered, and rubbed my hands together, trying to get some warmth into them. Maybe I should just go home…

Not yet though, I shook my head resolutely. I knew mother wanted me to get engage to Takuma, but I was only 8 (vampire) years-old! I still had a life to live!

But I knew she meant well. Mother probably doesn't want me to grow up and have my heart broken like hers was when Father died.

I can't help it though.

I want to be held in arms that I know will protect me.

I want to be wooed into a romance like in fairytales.

Most of all, I wanted to experience true love, even if it was just once.

I sighed to myself as something cold dropped onto my cheek. Bringing a delicate finger up to it, I felt water and looked up. It was snowing! Oh god, could this get any worse?

Apparently it could. It started snowing ever harder.

Maybe I should swallow my pride and go home…

Nope, that'd be giving in too soon.

I let my eyes drift close. Maybe I should just fall asleep…

A poke in my stomach woke my up from my almost slumber. I opened my eyes and glared into sleepy-looking silver ones. "Are you awake?"

By his smell, I could tell he was a vampire. A noble also. I frowned, and not because I had been woken up. I should have met him before this…"I am now thanks to you."

He smiled suddenly, bring me out of my shock. Well, I had to say, when he smiled, it made him look pretty damn good.

"Do you want to get something hot to drink?" he asked me, looking down at my sitting figure to his standing one. I grinned, the prospect of having some heat in me making me hyper. "Yes!"

He smirked at me, and then led the way to some vending machines. I sat on the benches as he paid for some hot chocolate. He handed me one and I cracked the can, sipping it. Ahhhhh. It might not have been what I'd imagine but at least it was something. Warmth settled over my shoulders.

I looked up at the guy and looked at my shoulders. A thick coat was over my shoulders and accepting the offer, snuggled into the warmth. He sat next to me.

Silence came over us as we waited for the other to talk. He started the conversation. "So…what's your name?"

"What's yours?"

A smile flitted over his face for a second. "Senri Shiki. Call me Senri."

I raised my eyebrows. Shiki? As in Reiko Shiki? The vampiric actress that was supposed to have gone insane? Well, at least amongst the vampire gossipers. "I'm Rima Touya."

He grinned. "Well, now that's that over, explain to me why you're here, outside in the snow, with…" He surveyed my clothes. "Very little clothes."

"I ran away from home…" I said. He asked me, "Why?"

I continued. "My mother…was talking about an arranged marriage to my friend…I like him but only as a friend…"

He nodded. "So the princess runs away and has to be rescued?"

A crude way to explain it but I nodded. "Yeah."

Everything was quiet once more. Senri said, checking his watch, "I have to go now."

He stood up and kissed me on the forehead, lightly, tender. I didn't expect this and sat still, in shock.

He kneeled, and took my hand into his. Staring at him, he slipped a plain silver ring onto my ring finger. Senri kissed the back of my hand. "I gotta leave now."

He stood and started to walk away. "Wait!"

Senri stopped and turned back to me. "What?"

"Will I ever see you again?" I asked, desperate. Though I had just met him, I knew.

That he'd be the one.

Senri gave me a soft smile.

"If it's fate, we'll meet each other again."
