Chapter Two – Dreaming

It has been four hours ago, the time that changed my mind. Four hours, the time when I met that man, who was different from the other noblemen I knew. He was different but not in a bad way. A gentle personality was hiding underneath that skin of beauty and elegance. Four hours ago, the time I only looked at him, talking with him and admiring his delicate appearance. Was that the only thing I could do? And now, sitting for my luxurious dressing table without my corset, being brushed by my lady's maid(1), the only one I actually trusted next to my father. I knew the maid since my childhood. She used to care for me instead of my mother, being helped by the nanny, who is already deceased now. She played with me and talked with me, seeing me grow up in the young lady I now am. The maid herself wasn't that old, she was in her late twenties, and it always surprised me how young and strong she always looked. Like she didn't age anymore. She somewhat behaves like my older sister when my father is not around. Then we'll sit in my room and talk until one of us falls asleep. When she's the first one, I'll have to drag her out of my room.. I suddenly felt someone tapping my shoulder and I knew it was the maid, much to my annoyance.

''What's it, Miu-san?'' I shouted the maid's name rudely. I heard a gasp behind me, followed by a painful thump on my head.

''Don't talk to Nee-san(2)like that, Shino-sama!'' A scolding voice shot back. I turned around and glared at the red-haired girl in front of her. The red-head glared right back and forced Shino to turn around, while she grabbed a comb and roughly start removing my tangles. I groaned of the sharp pain on my tender scalp.

''Ouch! It hurts, Miu-san!'' I whined, which was answered by another hard yank.

''Well, stop whining and just tell me what goes on in that little mind of yours! I know something is bothering you!'' She screamed, her caramel-colored eyes digging in my peach-colored. I bit my lip, giving her the signal to stop, and gracefully crossed my legs. Miu's eyes widened, but she obeyed and started combing my bangs in silence. It was not that something like this was rare, it happens often, too often. Miu is my maid, she should behave like one, and not interfere with my problems. But everytime I think about it, I know a part of my heart knows I need Miu, because she is the candle that leads me out of this dark, dangerous hole of noble prosperity, where there is no such thing as mercy. Not the butler, the gardener and certainly not the scullery maids, those little brats who likes nothing more then gossiping and causing problems. I've always wondered why my father let those girls work for us, but as the lady I am, I would never dare to ask such a rude thing. The only think I could do is trust him, like Miu. The feeling of her gently combing my hair was relaxing. I decided to forgive her and I raised my hand, telling her to stop. I stood up and looked straight in the maid's eyes. She was a small woman for her age, she was 166 cm (5 ft 7''), or maybe it was that I also wasn't that tall, I am 152 cm (4 ft 11''). Silence passed, until I started to giggle, which was followed by another giggle from Miu, which both ended up in laughter. After our little moment faded away, I delicately sat myself for the dressing table again and beckoned Miu over to continue combing my hair. When she started, I felt so happy.

''So tell me, what was going on upstairs?'' She demanded. I pretended to be deep in thought.

''Nothing, really. Everything was the same as always. Father sitting in his chair, stupid nobles and acceptable dishes'' I answered soberly.

''So the noblemen haven't changed?'' Miu asked. I shook my head.

''Then what about that men by the fountain?'' She asked bluntly, which gave me almost a heart-attack. Behind me I heard Miu giggle. I faced her.

''How do you know about Kaname?'' I demanded.

''I didn't, until now...'' She gave me a 'you are dumb'-look, and it irritated me, yet I was to embarrassed to scold her. I felt my cheeks burning when I thought about him again, his gentle eyes studying my appearance and most importantly: the feeling of his mouth on my hand. What did I actually felt that time when we where eye-to-eye? It was a moment which happened to fast for me to even remember the small details of it. I was so drowned in my thoughts that I didn't notice Miu waving her hands in front of my face, until she flicked my forehead. I whined and rubbed the sore spot.

''So tell me, who is that Kaname?''

She asked me like she was a good friend of me. I sighed, knowing that this time was inevitable, and decided to explain the situation.

''Well, he's is really handsome and gentle..'' I started. Miu chuckled when my blush became more intense.

''..and he's my father's guest. We've talked a bit before he left. That's all..'' Thinking I was rid of the embarrassing explanations, Miu stared intensely at me, probably knowing I'm still hiding something from her, which was of course true. It was just to embarrassing, the fact I was cursed by that man's beauty. It was still a fact I wanted to forget, yet I want to cherish the memory of him kissing my hand. That was the only thing that flashed for my eyes when I think about him. Kissing my hand was just out of formality, was a sentence I've tried to believe. He's probably just like all those other stupid noblemen, was another sentence I've repeated. But whatever I tried to make myself believe, the fact that he touched my body so passionately, was enough to make me faint. And maybe I wanted even more, his face nuzzling in my neck, his strong arms hugging my body and maybe, if I could survive it, a kiss. And that's what was making me so afraid and confused. What is this man to me, and why do I suddenly feel so attracted to him, even if I know him just for a moment? How could I explain it to Miu, if I even don't know it myself? I glanced at the red-head from the corner of my eye, seeing her still staring at me with a look that made me a little bit nervous. Miu noticed, and apparently figured out my problem. I was happy with Miu, the one who could see right through me. She helped me taking of my make-up and dressed me in my nightgown. The thin fabric felt like feathers on my skin, which immediately made me sleepy. Before I fell asleep on the ground, Miu quickly led me to my canopy bed and covered me up. I thanked Miu for helping me and wished her a good night. After she left, I immediately nuzzled in my soft pillow. The brushing feeling reminds me of the feeling of Kaname kissing my hand. The scene wouldn't leave my eyes, as if it was printed on my vision. I closed my eyes. I don't have to remember him, I really don't have to remember him. He forgot me anyway, he should be sleeping right now, not even remembering it. A tiny aching feeling started to itch my heart. Slowly, my heart filled with unhappiness. I groaned and bit my lip. I don't have to remember the moment. I don't have to remember the feeling of his soft lips. He'll never do it again, that's why I should not hope for it. With that, I fell in a light sleep, feeling darkness capturing my body and sending me to a world, where Kaname and I only lived.

I, Shino Kotomai, met him in my dreams..

That's the second chapter for now. You know, it's really hard for me to stick on one story, because I update the chapter which suits my mood. If the fangirl in me wakes up, I'll continue writing for things as Ichijou Takuma, the Gentle or Tea, Only for you. If there is a time my serious side takes over, I'll update stories like Your sin makes my world, Be my prisoner or this story, Royal Love. It's not that my LMAO-side disappeared, I actually will never get rid of it. Sometimes, even in the serious stories, I HAVE to write a funny line! I always scold myself for that, and end up deleting, copying, cutting and pasting the sentence over and over again. So yea, life is difficult when I'm forcing myself to be serious..

And! I'm going to test ya~! ;3 I'll write down a few (easy) quotes from Vampire Knight and you'll have to guess who said it! Just do it ONLY if you are interested!

- May I drink from your neck?

- I hope you don't have any intentions of abusing me personally..

- The world is dyed with the color of blood. It will never be able to go back to the way it was before..

- You lot like those types of questions, don't you? (sorry, this one was just to funny..)

- You make me so cruel..

- T_T It's Daddy... (again, sorry!)

Easy! If you are a VK-fan, you'll be able to answer most of the quotes! Leave it in your review!
