A/N: Okay this is my first attempt at something longer then a one shot, so please be patient with me.

Kaname sat under the willow tree in front of the mansion where he had grown up. He'd been there every day that week, watching the doors. The sun was up and burning brightly but Kaname didn't seem to mind. No matter how red he got he still sat there watching and waiting, just as though he thought he'd see his father walk out with a fishing pole. Kaname loved to fish with his father, and he'd still be waiting for him even though it was well over a week ago that he watched his father die.
Kaname closed his eyes and waited for the memory to overtake him, but it never did. All Kaname could think was I'm alone, I'm alone now and no matter how close I can get to Yuuki everything is already over. Finally he fell asleep and in his dreams he held Yuuki. She had been crying for hours but when she fell into his arms she was quiet.
Kaname looked down at her and smiled. A sad lonely smile he held when he saw her so far away from him. He whispered "I love you Yuuki. I love you more than the sun and the stars and the moon. I won't let him take you from me."
"But Kaname that's the problem: he already has me…" She sobbed. "I can hear him." Tears slipped down her cheek. "I'm sorry Kaname but I'm not strong enough."
Kaname woke up and rubbed his eyes. He'd fallen asleep? What time was it? He looked up at the sky which had grown dark. Kaname got to his feet and began to run. He still had some business to take care of elsewhere. He still had a visit to make before he had to get back.
