So as some of you may have noticed by now, some of the characters- namely Yuuki- may be a little OOC. But whatever, I like her better this way- she needed the sass and crazy. But yeah, I kind of rushed through this chapter so there may be a few mistakes here and there but it's good enough. Or maybe it sucks, who knows. I'll go back and re-edit it later. Anyway enjoy! Review!

"Hello, Yuuki…Yuuki?" Kaname waved his hand in front of her face. Even his hand was beautiful. Such long and slender fingers and wonderfully pale skin. She watched it in fascination, her eyes following as they took mental images to review later that night. He eventually put down his hand back to his side and turned to exchange words with some significantly less brilliant creature next to him. Then they both looked back at her, waiting. A few moments passed.

"Hey, girl! Kaname sama is speaking to you. Respond if you know your place!" Aidouh demanded.

Yuuki's eyes glowed in adoration at registering his name. "Mmm….K-k-k-kana…me…"

Kaname perked. "Yes? Are you okay? Are you feeling sick?" He looked worried.

Was he worried? For her? That was so sweet of him. He was seriously the nicest person she had ever known. The kind of guy to pick up a wet kitten from a box in the rain and take it home with him. That's the kind of guy she knew he was. She bet that he was also one of those people that gave his seat up to the elderly on the bus too. What was it he asked her again? "Uhhh….yes?"

"Really? I thought you looked kind of out of it." Kaname reached over and placed his hand on her forehead and Yuuki nearly passed out from the excitement.

"Gerummfferllee…" She blabbered incoherently, her whole face turning bright red. OHMYGOD HE'S TOUCHING ME OHMYGOD! She couldn't contain herself. She decided this had to be the best day of her life.

"You don't feel like you have a fever or anything…but you look really red. Want me to take you to the infirmary?"

Take her to the…Oh my god. Yuuki didn't think she could take all this happening at once. She shook her head violently. As it was she would already be taking up twice as many pages in her diary tonight and it was almost full. She didn't want any more action going down before she had the chance to get a new one and record every single moment they'd shared that day. "Gahh-no! No! No! No! I-I-I'm good! I'm really good! I'm fine. How are you? Cause I'm fine."

Kaname frowned. "Are you sure?"

"Y-y-yeah!"

Kaname looked skeptical.

Aidouh lightly tugged on his arm. "Kaname sama, just leave this weirdo. We gotta go or we are going to be late." Not that being late really mattered, but maybe it would drag him away from the human vermin.

Kaname gave Yuuki one last look mixed with concern, but allowed Aidouh to pull him away. "Uh, see you later, Yuuki…"

Yuuki gazed after him, her eyes shining with love, oblivious to the swarm of screeching girls clambering and grabbing at either side of him. As far as Yuuki was concerned, the only one in her line of vision was Kaname. Ah, he looks wonderful from behind too. Nothing could beat those wide, manly shoulders and splendid broad back of his. Her eyes dropped lower and she couldn't deny those long legs couldn't be matched either. As she watched his figure fade into the distance she knew he was perfect in every way.

"You're drooling" she heard a disgusted voice say.

Yuuki straightened and wiped her mouth. "Aren't you supposed to be managing that end of the walk?"

Zero looked at her like she was crazy. "In case you haven't noticed we are pretty much done here anyway."

Yuuki blinked. Now that the Night Class had passed, the crowed scattered, and everyone was headed back to their own dorms now. A few girls had remained behind, filling a small vile with the dirt from where Kaname had walked. Zero walked over and told them to scram and though they glared at him they grudgingly gathered the last of their sacred soil and trudged back to the dorms.

Just as the last of the students cleared out, the sun began to make its final descent beyond the horizon line, leaving behind a beautiful violet-tinged sky. Yuuki liked this time of day best, and not just because she got to see her beloved Kaname sama either. Early as it was, moon was still small and low in the sky, but it glowed eerily against the velvet curtain of dusk. A few stars poked out from behind, shining faintly through the fading light of day. She liked to think that they were saving up their energy for when the moon was higher in the sky and then they would dance and twinkle to their fullest in a contest to dominate the heavens above.

"Ready to go?"

"Yeah," Yuuki said "Lets go."

As always, the two walked in silence, what with Zero being the generally taciturn person he was. Though Yuuki longed to head back to her own room, their night wasn't over yet and they still had to patrol the grounds to make sure there weren't any stragglers left behind that were up to no good.

Normally, this is where they would split up and one of them would head back through the trail and the other would go and monitor the student's dorms for the occasional rebel that tried to sneak out and follow the Night Class. Almost always she would be the one stuck with that area, but tonight she felt like mixing it up. She looked over at the thick cluster of trees and thought how pretty the dying light of day looked shining over the canopy, making the top leaves look like they were dipped in hues of gold and purple. Very soon it would get darker, but tonight was a full moon. A full moon…Weren't magical things supposed to happen when there was a full moon? Like fairies gathering to dance in the forest? Or previously magically hidden barriers open up revealing magic kingdoms?

She stopped in her tracks and pointed, "I'll take the woods, you can take the area by the buildings."

"Why don't you cover that area instead?" Zero asked.

"Why? I always do it. Let's switch."

The corner of his mouth twitched. "Why? Because the woods are more dangerous at night…you don't know what you're really dong anyway…and I …I don't think it's a good idea for…a girl…er, you to be wandering around in there by yourself."

Yuuki crossed her arms. "What's that supposed to mean? Wandering? It's not like I'm Red Riding Hood and I'm going to stop along the way to pick mushrooms or frolic or something. I've done this before. I'm well aware that there are dangers that accompany the responsibility." She whipped out her staff and waved it at him. "That's why I have this. Which is enough protection as far as I'm concerned. So enough with the misplaced chivalry."

Zero threw his hands up, annoyed. "Fine. Do what you want. I was just trying to look out for you, but apparently you can do that for yourself. Just don't coming running to me when you've got one of those…those….bloodsuckers breathing down your neck." He turned to walk off in the opposite direction, back to the dorms.

Yuuki humphed and spun around to head back onto the trail through the woods. She didn't need him. He would only get in the way of her fairy-hunting. If he ran into a fairy he probably wouldn't even properly appreciate the experience the way she would. She climbed over a stray vine. And it was like he was always belittling her, making it sound like she couldn't do anything for herself. What was up with that? As long as she had a weapon she was just as capable as he was. It really was no wonder that he didn't have many close friends, what with the way he treated her and all. And yet, he seemed to have a number of fan-girls despite himself. How was that even possible? What redeeming qualities did he possess anyway? He was offensive, petty and anti-social. She supposed the only thing he really had going for him then were his looks. Even Yuuki had to admit he had that certain wild and unruly air about him with his devil-may-care attitude, that unkept silver hair that almost looked purposefully tousled and those cold grey eyes that bored into your soul. She supposed she might find herself attracted to him too if she was a sucker for that whole bad-boy style. Which she wasn't.

It was getting darker now, and harder to navigate her way around the rocks and roots scattered across the path. She tripped twice, but managed to catch herself both times. Sometimes when she was walking in the dark by herself liked this she liked to pretend she was a ninja. It was her guilty pleasure, and she would never let Zero see he like this. She crouched down and sprung forward, darting behind tree to tree, carefully scanning the ground for fairy circles as she ran through the night.

She jumped out from behind a bush. "Nin-nin-no-jutsu!" Yuuki splayed her hands out in front of her and was thrown back by the imaginary beam that shot forth from her palms aimed at the tree in front of her. She fell down in slow motion and then picked herself up and started running forward again. Trees and foliage swept past her and she truly felt like she was one with the darkness.

All of the sudden she came to halt. Yuuki could hear voices nearby? She moved her head, trying to pinpoint where the noise was coming from. No…Yes…No…She was sure of it! She edged closer to the source of the sound, imitating the effortless way Zero carried himself, hoping she wouldn't make too much noise as she walked. Two figures stood in the clearing up ahead, though she couldn't quite make out who they were. If only the clouds would clear away from the moon! She waited, carefully hiding herself behind a wide tree, the clever ninja that she was. But she couldn't hear what they were saying. Yuuki scooted closer.

A girl spoke: "…I've always loved you….from the first moment I ever saw you, I knew you were the one. And I hope…I hope that you might be able to reciprocate my feelings. I can understand if you don't feel the same way right now! But maybe if you could just wait, wait and see what kind of person I am…Maybe come to like me…"

A confession! How exciting! Yuuki had imagined countless times all the different ways she would confess to Kaname, and under the star-lit sky was definitely on the list. It was pretty romantic.

"You know," a guy spoke, "you really are quite pretty…How could I not fall at your feet upon hearing such a beautifully heart-felt request?" This voice sounded very familiar, and Yuuki had a nagging feeling she had heard it somewhere before. "Mmm, you have such beautiful eyes, so clear and deep…your hands are so soft… your skin…. "

Yuuki blushed. It sounded like it was getting steamy, and she felt like she should turn away…no wait, it was her duty as a prefect to watch- to make sure nothing happened. She strained her eyes, struggling to see through the dark but it was impossible. Yuuki grabbed onto a branch and leaned forward.

"…Your skin is so warm…Mmmm…"

Suddenly the clouds cleared just enough so that a pool of light washed over the couple before her. A young girl lay limp in the arms of another student…whose mouth was dangerously close to her neck…A Night Student! Oh sh*t! Yuuki started to jump out but her uniform got caught on the branch. She pulled and pulled and finally yanked it loose, then lost her balance and tumbled out of the brush.

"Ouuuuch." She rubbed her arm. Her sleeve was ripped. Great. She heard a crunching sound and quickly looked up, still covered in leaves and moss.

Startled, the girl had jumped away from his arms. She slowly backed up, her face bright red. It was clear she was about to bolt. "Um…I'll see you later Aidouh sempai!"

"Wait!" He reached out to her but it was too late, she had escaped. Yuuki was relieved to see there were no marks on her neck as she ran away. The guy whipped his head towards Yuuki and snarled angrily, "You!"

Ah. It was that guy. From earlier. What was his name again? Oh, yeah, that girl had called him Aidouh.

"Yes, me." Yuuki stood up and wiped the dirt and brush off of her uniform, even though it was completely stained now and virtually pointless. She turned towards him, twigs and leaves still sticking out from her hair. "You're a Night Student right? What exactly do you think you were doing with that girl?"

He glared at her. "How is that any of your business?"

"As a prefect and a protector of the students at this school, I think that's exactly my business."

His voice was low, and hostile. "As I said, it was none of your business…And you should have left us well alone while you had the chance."

"And let you attack her? I think not."

Aidouh laughed now. "How do you know she didn't want to be attacked?"

"I- uh-"

He walked over towards her, out of the shadows and into the fuller light of the moon. She could see him more clearly now. He was definitely that guy from earlier-the one that was with Kaname. Now that he wasn't standing next to someone so dazzling and completely gorgeous, she realized he was actually really good-looking himself. Warm blond hair and azure eyes framed a boyishly handsome face. Quite handsome. Based on that scene she had just witnessed, she figured he was probably a womanizer, too.

Aidouh came to stand right in front of her, and she suddenly felt a little dazzled herself. Not as dazzled as Kaname made her feel, just a little dazzled. "W-what?"

"Well now that you've scared off my prey," He grinned. The word "wolfish" instantly came to mind. "Perhaps you were hoping that you could take her place instead." Aidouh reached down and took a rather large stick out of her hair.

Yuki winced as his fingers came down to graze her scalp. He was a little too close for comfort now, their bodies hovering mere inches from one-another. She felt trapped. "I… I didn't intend that at all!"

"Maybe you did, maybe you didn't. What matters is that you interrupted my interlude." He bent down to whisper in her ear, "So you should take responsibility for it."

Yuuki felt chills go down her spine as Aidouh's cool breath brushed against her skin. Every hair on her body stood on end. She really felt like a fawn about to be devoured by a wolf. Yuuki wanted to run but her body was glued in place and she couldn't even gather the strength to use her staff.

Aidouh lingered, his head moving down her neck. "Mmmm you smell so good…" He smiled, revealing a set of wickedly sharp canines. "Almost good enough to eat." He laughed.

Not only was that line ridiculously lame, but Yuuki was really starting to feel like something might happen if she didn't do something quick. But she couldn't move. It was as if he had frozen her right where she was with some sort of ninja spell. OHMYGOD. Did he just lick her? Oh God. He did. She felt his tongue glide down her neck and recoiled inwardly. This was so gross. Yuuki tried with all her might to find the strength to move! Just MOVE d*mn it, but it was all futile as she couldn't budge. Did vampires suck their victims dry? She probably had learned this at some point but had forgotten at this crucial moment. Maybe he would only take a little blood and then she would taste so bad he would have to let her go.

Aidouh suddenly pulled back and opened his mouth wide, fully exposing his fangs. They looked like they belonged on some carnivorous animal, surely not on someone that looked so human. But no, this was real. He was going to bite her now, and she was helpless to stop it.

Yuuki shut her eyes tightly and braced herself.

So I tried writing an outline before writing this chapter. I don't usually do this. Anyway, this is how it went: [Walk back, Zero doesn't want to go through same forest, but Yuuki is like what if there were fairies and goes through the forest. Runs into Aidouh who's like agggh. END]. Good stuff, huh? Lol thanks to my one review! You're awesome and sorry I didn't update sooner! Please keep reading and reviewing!
