Vampire Knight: Zero's Love Interest (Part 1)
I wonder if Kaname will forgive me for betraying him again. It's just that something has been very weird ever since Zero came back from that extended Hunter's Association trip. I was kind of angry with the headmaster for not at least giving me a heads up or something. I mean I deserve to know what happens to Zero don't I?
Yuki's head was buried inside of her textbook, literally, as she was passed out from another sleepless night. Her mind was all over the place that she hadn't realized sleeping was a major life requirement at least for a few hours.
Yori leaned over the girl, poking her temporarily limped body. "Yuki," she blinked away a loose eyelash. "...you weren't in your dorm yesterday. What's with you lately?"
She jumped out of her dream only to stare completely oblivious to her surroundings. She turned around to gaze upon Zero with confusion and somewhat curiosity. "Wh-at... when did you get here?"
Zero peeked at Yuki from reading a novel on... Shakespeare? Well it surely wasn't in English that's for certain. He tried to gestured her attention back towards the front of the classroom in time before-
Whack!
"Ack!" She yelped, rubbing the back of her head. Yuki picked up the thin book that struck her. "What was that for?"
"I suggest you learn to use your social time more wisely Ms. Cross. Otherwise I'll be forced to keep you after class while Zero attends to his duties." Mr. Toga turned his attention back on the board that contained a few notes regarding the class work. Apparently there was an important final coming soon and Yuki had no idea until now.
She stiffened at the blank page in her notebook. "Oh man. This isn't good."
"Yuki you aren't very much into your studies as usual. Is something bothering you?" Yori asked her, a bit of unsettling worry in her voice.
"I'm fine."
"Are you sure?"
"Ye-yeah. Of course. No need to worry about me, heh." She gave her friend a crooked smile.
When did Zero get here? Is it really me that's not focused? It can't be. I was sure he was still in secret from me. But I just can't shake the feeling that headmaster Cross and him are hiding something from me.
Later that day...
"Everyone get back! I mean it! Hey no shoving!" Yuki used her feminine strength to keep the Day Class students back. She looked over to see Zero smiling to some red-headed student. It was a bit strange in fact. He never smiled with it came to the girls around him. But this was even more surreal as Yuki came to terms with this new found discovery.
"Hey!" She shouted out towards him, "Zero we have a job to do." Was it wrong that she felt a little jealous?
"You seem to have it." He leaned on one leg, continuing his conversation.
The Gates to the Night Class campus opened and Yuki immediately became a fan just as the other girls. She couldn't control herself as she watched those beautiful creatures walk in such an elegant way through the middle of the opened crowd.
Aido smiled and greeted the young girls who seemed to faint or pull on their hair like mad dogs.
Kain shoved Aido forward, making the young man stumbled a bit. "Now is not the time to be full of yourself Hanabusa. You know they'll eat up every little piece of attention you grant them with."
"But it's so much fun. I love it when fresh blood- I mean fresh roses is at my taking." He laughed off the simple but huge mistake.
Kaname looked past the crowd at his only Prize. "Good afternoon Yuki."
Her smile grew wide from cheek to cheek. "Hello there Kaname." She bowed to the knee nervously.
He couldn't help but take his eyes from her and stare at her partner and his acquainting. "Seems Zero has his hands full at the moment."
And right he was. Zero's hand was wrapped around the red-head's waist. Yuki's cheeks burned with embarrassment. More because she was jealous in front of Kaname. The other reason was because they had a job to do and Zero completely abandoned her.
