Please review, enjoy and err, i don't own Vampire Knight. If i did.... *mumbles to herself* err, nothing! Anyway, this is my first time doing this type of story. I hope it's good!
Chapter 2
When you feel the need,
Do you always heed?
Listen to your heart,
And follow your dreams by doing your part.
" Are you ready?" A woman asked herself. She bit her lip. Her heart racing, god knows how much per minute. She remembered how fearful she was… It was after many 'dates' only did they realise how much they liked each other. But both of them were too worried about the rules to admit it. Why I said liked? Well, it is because it is now they love each other.
Flashback,
" So, umm, what are you doing tomorrow?"
" Nothing. Do you have something in mind, Megu-chan?" The said girl smiled.
" No, I don't. I thought you had something planned. You always do."
" Akiyama! It's duty time, stop talking to that… vampire." Zero said. Megumi nodded. " I'll see you later, Takuma-kun. I apologise for Zero's behaviour." Then she ran off.
Later that night, her hands started shaking. She saw how determined Yuuki is for wanting to make chocolates. She decided to help her out. " Hey, Yuuki-chan! I'll help you out." She started writing down the recipe and saw Yuuki looking confuse. " Hmm? Is something wrong, Yuuki-chan?"
" What are you writing, Megumi-chan? I don't understand…." Megumi looked at her own handwriting and nodded. " Yeah, me too. I'm still not good in writing… Well, it can't be helped…" Yuuki looked confuse. " Not good in writing?"
" Yes… You see, I'm one of those people who have horrible handwriting. If I write slow, only then will my handwriting be readable. I don't really know why but, it can't be helped."
Yuuki stared at her. " Ok, let's begin, Yuuki-chan! We need……."
A few hours later,
Both of them blinked. " What settings did you put, Yuuki?"
" Err…. I don't know…"
" Well, I think you used the wrong settings." Megumi said, looking at the chocolates. Can chocolates be this… burned? Can chocolates even be burned? " Well, at least two of it is save. How about I take one and you'll take the other?" Yuuki smiled sheepishly at the other girl before nodding.
The next day, however, was the scariest day ever for the both girls as they watched all of the girls stand behind bars, hoping to be the first to give their chocolates first. Valentine's Day is so wonderful, don't you think?
Megumi and Yuuki stood in the middle. " Ok, let em out!!" Yuuki shouted at the gate keeper. As soon as they got out, they took their time to get to their respective gates. Without even looking, Yuuki turned towards Aido. " No asking for blood types and stop making them faint, Aido-senpai!"
Yuuki walked away and tried her best to control the crowds of girls. Kaname seemed a little annoyed by the scene. Somehow, Yuuki managed to fall down and Zero mysteriously appeared. Megumi looked behind her, knowing that it is Takuma.
That's when she remembered the thing she forgot. The Valentine's Day present for Takuma. She slowly turned behind, not ready to face him. She wondered to herself as to how she could have forgotten something so important. She blushed. Why should she care so much? Her mind kept asking her.
" Hi there, why's your face red? Are you sick, Megumi-chan?" Takuma asked, worriedly.
" W-what?! N-no! I mean- Err" She inhaled and then exhaled, calming herself down. "I'm not sick, Takuma-kun."
" Oh, I was frightened at that thought. If you were sick… I won't be able to see you." he teased. " But then again, you'll suffer more without me there, wouldn't you?"
" It's not fair! The prefects always get the good guys!" A girl shouted from the crowd as heat rushed up to Megumi's cheeks.
Later that night,
Megumi puffed up her cheeks. She had spent a lot of time being glared at. It is rather frightening for her. That Takuma, he's going to get it from me one day. Megumi thought.
" Welcome back, Akiyama-chan…" A girl said in a sickly sweet voice.
" Ari-san? What is it?" Megumi asked. She never liked her roommate. Ari's obsessed with the Night Class and is bent on getting rid of Megumi because the Night Class (Takuma.) pays attention to her. That's when she saw it. " My chocolate!!" Ari grinned at her before throwing the chocolate into her own mouth.
Megumi stood there, too shock to move. The chocolate is gone….. It's really gone… Megumi thought to herself. Then she stared at Ari. Ari just grinned at her, happily. Megumi slowly let her mind process this. Ok, the chocolate is gone and she won't be able to give the valentine's present to Takuma.
Why did she want to give it to him in the first place? That's when she remembered. She quickly ran out the room to make another batch of chocolates. She ransacked the whole kitchen to find the ingredients but the only thing she found was… sugar.
She bit her lip to stop herself from crying. " There has to be another way… Maybe… I could just… No! I will never buy chocolates to give. It's stupid! If we want to give a present to someone, handmade is the best choice to show our love, right?! Ok, ok… calm down, Megumi, no point in freaking out. Think… think! Maybe I could buy the ingredients… it doesn't take too long to make chocolates… I'll make it!" Taking her wallet, she rushed off to town.
" Thank you, miss!! Come again!" Megumi smiled at the shopkeeper and nodded before rushing back to the kitchens. She sat down on the floor as she waited for the chocolates to be done.
The next thing she knew is…
" Megumi-chan!! Wake up! You know you can't be sleeping in the kitchen, you'll catch a cold." Yuuki said, frowning at her friend.
Megumi stirred awake. She stared at Yuuki, thinking she forgot something important. Then she blinked her eyes. " My chocolates!!!" She shouted before checking her supposedly nice chocolates. " Oh no…. I did my best but still…. I'm hopeless… Yuuki, what am I going to do?!" Megumi begged Yuuki for an answer as tears flowed down her face. " First, I forgot to bring it with me and then Ari ate it. T-then I went to buy ingredients because there wasn't any in the kitchen and now… this!" She complained.
Yuuki sat down next to her, offering her hand. " I… I don't really know, Megumi-chan. Why don't you buy some chocolates for Ichijo-san?" Yuuki said, carefully. She's afraid that any wrong word will make Megumi feel worse.
" Buy…? I can't do that, Yuuki! If you were meant to give someone you love a present, shouldn't you make them filled with your hard work?! I just…! I can't! I'm sorry, Yuuki, for yelling at you but that idea is… foolish… I'm just really… sad that I couldn't get him one in the end."
" It's alright, Megumi-chan. I'm sure Ichijo-san will understand." Megumi hugged Yuuki. " I'm so glad to have a friend like you, Yuuki-chan. Hey, wait, how'd you know I was getting if for Takuma?"
Yuuki started to laugh. " It's obvious you like him, Megumi-chan. You should know by now that he feels the same way."
Megumi smiled sadly. " Yes, but this is just for now. We can't be together, Yuuki. He's a vampire and I'm a vampire hunter. You know that equation can be mixed. It's just like positive can't be with negative."
" True love conquers all, isn't it, Megu-chan?" Yuuki asked, looking up at the stars.
Megumi chuckled. " You're too innocent, Yuuki. Well, I really hope so but I don't think I can call my admiration for Takuma as true love, Yuuki. Or is it because of your infatuation to Kaname-senpai." Yuuki turned bright red as Megumi continued to laugh at her friend.
" I can't stand it… I'm going to see him! If not…. If not, he might like another girl already!" With renewed determination, Megumi walked into the Night Class's classrooms. She walked in and nearly jumped at everything. Every single vampire stared at her as she continued walking.
" What's a vampire hunter doing here?" A vampire spat out, as though the words vampire hunter is poisonous. Megumi hurriedly walked. That's when she bumped into someone. She looked up to see Aido 'Idol' Hanabusa.
" Sorry, I wasn't looking, Aido-senpai."
" What are you doing here, Megumi-chan?" Aido said, teasing her.
Megumi blushed before looking at him. " I'm here to see Takuma-kun, if you'll excuse me." She said before hurriedly walking passed him. She then found the doors she was looking for. She slammed it open and as soon as it opened, every single vampire was staring at her. "Excuse me, may I speak with Ta- Ichijo-san for awhile?"
Kaname looked at her from where he was before giving a nod to Takuma. Takuma nodded back at him before walking to her. They walked next to each other in silence. They stopped walking once they reached a fountain. " So-" They both began at once. " You can go first-" They said in unison.
Megumi laughed and Takuma joined in soon after. " How about I start?" Megumi asked. Takuma nodded at her with a smile. " Ok, so, umm… I'm sorry! I don't have any chocolates for you! First, I forgot to bring it to you at that transaction. Then, Ari ate it. Soon after that, I had to buy ingredients because the kitchen finished. I fell asleep and the chocolates were… inedible. I yelled at Yuuki when she suggested to buy chocolates because I don't believe in buying chocolates when you wish to give it to the person you love!" Megumi's eyes widened and immediately, her hand flew over her mouth as she squeaked.
" Did you… did you hear what I said just now?" Takuma chuckled. " Loud and clear. I have had enough of this game of tag. I mean, both of us like each other, so why don't we just start dating? For once, don't care about vampire and vampire hunter. Just be who we are."
" But, you know it's not allowed for us to even be friends."
" Yes, that's true… Well, true love conquers all." Megumi stared at him before laughing. "That's exactly what Yuuki said. Well, ok then, let's take our chance now, Takuma-kun. But I'm going to need protection if they found out, those Day Class girls are going to kill me."
" Don't worry, I'll protect you." Megumi rolled her eyes. " Right…" Before they both started laughing. Who knew what challenges they would have faced… if they did, would they have changed their choice?
