Chapter 2

I went to see my brother, he was lounging in his dorm leader room, drink a blood tablet. 'Nii-san…Are you okay?' I asked as I sat down next to him on his chase lounge.

He looked at me and sighed 'you know it was Yuuki's blood don't you?' He asked taking a sip of the fake drink.

'Yes Nii-san…Aido got a taste of it didn't he…' I watched my brother drain the remnants of the cup.

'Yes' cold, harshness 'He did'

'Oh…' I looked away 'if she ever did intend to give her blood, I know it would be you she gave it too' I stood up and brushed out my skirt, I went to leave but Kaname caught my hand.

'Mayu-chan?'

I turned to face him, he never calls anyone chan

'Thank you dear imouto…you understand what others do not about Yuuki' He told me, I narrowed my eyes then let my face soften.

'Its okay Kaname-Kun' I smiled then left the room. I closed the door silently behind me. I turned to the corridor to see Takumi stood there. I looked at him opened my mouth then stopped, what could I say…he said I smelt good for a vampire…that's abnormal…I looked at him gasped unintentionally and fled to my own dormitory room to prepare Chocolate for Valentines ay, the female kind (like me) give out chocolate to the male kind, I have a few…favourites from the day class so I've made some for them and of course, some chocolates for the males in the night class, it's a bit of a tradition for me to do so. When I had finished preparing I tired to get some sleep as dawn was fast approaching, But I could not get the day Zero Kiryu came to the academy, Kaname and I watched him arrive and saw how Yuuki cared for him…I fell instantly into deep adoration for both Yuuki and Zero. Such kind people, despite Zero's hate for the vampire race…he still cares…I love traits like that in people…it is so hard to find nowadays though…

It was the day before Valentines Day approached and as I tripped down the stairs I noticed Takumi stood at the top he saw me and followed me down the stairs.

'Oh come on boys, you'll all definitely get chocolate' I told them smiling

'That's 'cause you always make some for us all' Kain told me in his bored drawl.

'Because your all so nice' I smiled and looked at Ruka 'well most of them are anyway' I told her, she giggled and looked to her other side 'Kaname-sama!' she gasped ash e came down the stairs, I rolled my eyes and stood next to Takumi 'Good morning Kaname!' he greeted the president of the dorm.

'Shall we go?' He asked the group of vampires and the ones sat down stood up and we moved to the gates.

I caught up to my brother 'Nii-san, are you feeling okay?'

'Of course little Mayu-chan'

'Little!?'

The gates opened and the screaming girls hurt my ears. My brother said good morning to Yuuki and I did the same, hugging her 'Arigatou once more!' I told her. Kaname went over to Zero, I tensed what would he say, but I had no need to be worried, he was only wondering how Zero felt. I hugged Zero too, much to the displeasure of being hugged by a vampire.

'Mayu!' Aido called me in a sing-song voice 'some boys want to see you'

I rushed to the front and saw the human male kind 'Hello' I said softly as the Vampires went past 'How're you today?'

'We're fine' the boys replied in unison.

'Good' I quickly looked over them, not too shabby 'Be here tomorrow 'kay' I told them as I saw Kaname's inpatient glare.

'Do you have to toy with them?' he asked

'I'm not, there nice' I smiled then went on my tip-toes to whisper in his ear 'I'm sure there blood is too' I told him then skipped away.

My skip slowed down to a walk then stopped, I looked back to Zero, then to my brother 'I'm going to help him' I told my brother then ran to where he was.

'Kiryu-san?' I called his name as he came into view he saw me and glared 'I…I'm sorry…you really do hate our kind…but where not all like her' I told him, making sure my words we're kind.

'Your Kuran's sister right? Mayu?'

I nodded. 'I can help you take the blood tablets…if you don't take them-'

'I can live without them! I don't need your help!' he snapped at me then walked away

'But…but if you do, you can trust me' I called to him, no knowing whether he heard or not, I turned and saw Takumi 'oh…' I looked down, but he picked up my face.

'I scared you that night didn't I?' He asked

'No just shocked me'

'I'll walk you to the building' he told me taking my hand 'my treat'

I forgot that…or tried to when I awoke I got the chocolate to give ready and got changed. Today was going to be a good day, for everyone, I was to make sure of that. I delivered it to there rooms, so that they had room to carry the chocolate they received from the humans. I carried the chocolate for the human boys in a bag so I could not drop any.

The gates opened, the boys at the front, of course. Yuuki gave us a lecture and told us to only accept blood…well she told the male's that of course. I saw the boys waiting at the end of the long line of girls, they looked out of place.

'I'm sorry! You must be fed up of all the girls crooning over the boys in the night class' I bowed in respect to them 'here take them' I smiled and handed out the chocolate 'enjoy'

I left the group then. Takumi caught up to me 'Do I get any?'

'In your room check tonight' bored as I may have faked, I did not feel so tired. I went to the horse stables and sat down in front of my favourite horse. I saw Zero appear and lean against the stable doors.

I watched him deny a girl's thanks for saving her and watched her leave 'Zero, will you accept my chocolate?' I asked standing up and brushing the dust of my skirt. He looked shocked 'Thought not…'

'Fine' He told me, sticking out his hand, I got out the chocolate and put it in his hand 'Happy Valentines day' I told him 'be strong' I then skipped away, I was already late for class.

I arrived late into class, but I only saw Kaname and Takumi 'where are…?'

'We don't know' Takumi said 'look at all the chocolate I've got! Come and share it with me!'

I sighed and sat down next to him 'I'm worried now…' I looked at Kaname, his thoughts we're similar to mine. I stood up 'I'm going to the headmaster, don't follow' I added to Takumi.

I found my way to the headmasters' office 'Kaien Cross, how long do intend of letting Zero be like this?' I asked upon my entering.

'What a way to enter dear Mayu' he giggled then his voice became a serious tone 'I don't know, I was hoping he would just take the tablets…'

'You knew he wouldn't, he hates the vampire species!' I leaned on his table 'I don't like seeing such a good person in so much pain' I told him 'It makes me…upset' I rolled the words around my tongue and then left the room and went to the others. I came when they were just about getting told of 'so what have you done then? Provoked Zero, as if he isn't in enough pain already, taunting him…what were you thinking Aido?' I went up to them, splitting the group in two and standing beside my brother.

'He has changed since the incident four years ago…' My brother commented 'It's unavoidable now…'

I stayed silent and stared angrily at my fellow students.
