Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight, etc, etc... but Rin is mine!!!!
Rin pressed her face against the cold window, her breath fogging up the clear glass. Her eyes fluttered closed, glimpsing the pinkish taint of dawn in the night sky before the image was shut away behind her eyelids.
The Moon Dorm was silent, its dark occupants fleeing into their four-poster beds and quilts of the finest down as the first dawn rays penetrated the gloom. Except one.
She stood against the window for a long time, her black curls cascading down her back and framing her fine-boned face.
Cold. That is who I am. I am Cold. I am Rin. Rin Kage. Cold Shadow. That is who I am. Her thoughts rang with those words, her fists closing over the windowsill and penetrating the finely varnished wood to allow splinters to needle her fingertips.
Her slim brows furrowed as she pressed her forehead harder into the glass. She would have stood that way for the whole day, if not for the interruption of footsteps down the corridor.
"Why do you not sleep?"
Rin slowly turned to face the person who addressed her, eyes slowly opening with controlled composition. Her face was cold and uncompassionate, her high cheekbones and slanted brows honing the gaze of her fierce glacier-blue eyes to sharp daggers. The unpenetrated black of her curls turned the paleness of her skin and the blush of her pink lips to diamonds, her life burning with a light of sharp, unforgiving beauty.
Her gaze fell on Kain, who stood casually against the wall, his coat open and one hand stuck in a side pocket while the other rested on his hip.
"Why do you stand to watch the dawn each morning when everyone else is asleep and silent?"
She avoided his question, countering it with a question of her own.
"Why are you not asleep and silent like everyone else but me?" she said, her lip quivering with an evil smirk, revealing her vampire's fangs. A slight frown marked Kain's face, who was unable to reply. Rin attacked him with another question, more perplexing than the last.
"How should I answer when you cannot?"
Kain didn't reply. For a while none of them moved, gaze penetrating gaze. It was Rin who finally spoke, her low and haughty voice ringing clear in the cold corridor.
"You came to this academy out of loyalty to a pureblood, did you not?"
Kain still did not reply, the same frown still on his face. Rin chuckled heartlessly, turning to leave. She threw one last sentence over her shoulder as her feet carried her towards her room, her voice still haughty and cold.
"We do not have the same reasons, Kain." And then another, as she was lost in the shadows of the curtained hallway. "Nor do we have the same loyalties."
Kain's head rang with her words her strong presence taking its toll on him. Shaking his head to clear it from the fuzzyness Rin's presence seemed to bring, Kain turned to the opposite direction, his feet bringing him to his room.
Later, as sleep pulled his eyelids closed, he wondered if the encounter was a dream, but he slept and knew it wasn't.
