A:N/ Gomen. Gomen. GOMENASAI! You probably all want to kill me now and to be perfectly honest, you have good reason to. It's my fault too. I left you all out in the cold and abandoned you! :( Please forgive me for not updating in forever. I will try to do better. Thank you for all the lovely reviews I received, they brightened my day so much! XD! A special thank you to Cinderera, RejectedByMostButLovedByAll, VampwithAttitude and Midori Gryohon. Awsum peeps( yeah im lame enuff to still use that word like it's cool, well I never claimed to be cool) are the whole reason to write in the first place! I'm glad you enjoyed the last chappy, here's to hoping this one's good too! * toasts with champagne*

Disclaimer: I can't believe I forgot this last time. If I owned Vampire Knight, all the girls would be gone and it would be all yaoi goodness! But I don't own Vampire Knight. So it looks like we're just gonna have to put up with Yuuki.

Warning: This is a yaoi. Or boyxboy awesomeness. Eventually it will contain lemons, limes and MPREG. Rated M for a reason kiddos. Well not so much in this chapter. Light cursing, nudity and whatever happened while Takuma was asleep but you my dear readers get to decide that one for yourselves! ;D Anyway, if you're not down with the yaoi now is your last chance to get off the train. (Man! What is up with me and lame phrases today?)

"Close your eyes little girl, you're a princess now

You own this world.

Twirling in your twirly dress, you're the lovliest

Far above the rest!

You build your castles in the sky,

While the stars are reflecting off of your eyes

Angels sing on sliver clouds.

And no one cries, screams or shouts…"

Set Apart This Dream, Flyleaf

Takuma took a deep breath bracing himself for what he would have to do next…sharing body heat. It wasn't like he wanted to, it was the only possible way the boy would make it! It was sort of sad though the first person he would ever be in bed naked with was this half dead, frozen boy that wouldn't even be conscious enough to know it. He decided not to dwell on that for too long, far too depressing. He had to focus on helping this boy. Yet, as many times as he told himself it was only to save the life of another person… it didn't make it any better.

So he shed his clothes as quickly as possible and did the same with the boy's but was instantly taken aback.

This boy was gorgeous. He tried not to ogle the little boy's body, tried and failed. This boy was ten times prettier than any girl could ever be! He'd never seen anything quite so perfect. Takuma started to have some ideas but shoved them to the back of his mind, ashamed to have had them in the first place. Why was he thinking this way?

This was a stranger he'd seen in the snow. He'd saved his life, that was all. This boy had nothing to do with him. He couldn't let himself be drawn in by something that was just going to go away. It depressed him deeply for some reason to know that this boy was going to leave too.

It couldn't be helped though. No outsiders ever stayed in Snowfall. This was just the way things were. The people who lived there had been living there for as long as they could remember. Generations of the same families had populated Snowfall probably since it's founding, something else no could remember exactly when was. There was no reason for such things to be remembered. The fact was that it was there now and would continue to be for a very long time.

Nothing ever changed either. While the world around them flowed continuously into different stages Snowfall had remained virtually the same. It continued to remain untouched and unknown of by the other residents of North Dakota as it always had. Takuma doubted that most people had never even heard of Snowfall. And why would they have? There was absolutely nothing to or no one in Snowfall that was different from any other small town, or any town in general at that. The people of Snowfall kept to themselves. In return nobody in North Dakota minded them. For just as no outsiders stayed in Snowfall, those who lived there never left.

Come to think of it, Takuma had never seen any outsiders before. Just who exactly was this boy? It would be interesting to hear how he had come to be in such a little, insignificant place as Snowfall, North Dakota.

He got into the bed next to the boy gingerly, wincing at the cold as he pulled the boy against his chest already feeling some of his body heat leave him into the boy. As he watched the boy's thin, shallow breathing he briefly wondered what this boy could have been doing to end up in that sort of situation. He hadn't been dressed for hiking, or even for going outdoors in this weather…it didn't matter. It wasn't his business to know he thought before the lullaby of soft breathing and snow falling against the roof lured him to sleep.

When he awoke he wasn't quite finished sleeping. So it took him a while to process the bright blue eyes staring back into his green ones.

Suddenly another, now warm body was pressed against his own, and it felt so good. Takuma had never had such a feeling of ecstasy, he couldn't help but nestle further into it. "That's it. You can go back to sleep. I didn't mean to wake you." Whispered a voice he'd never heard before, but felt like he knew from somewhere.

Still in the dreaminess of sleep he murmured an incoherent response that even he himself hadn't understood. All he understood than was how much he wanted that voice to go on. Without a doubt this voice was the prettiest thing he'd ever heard. Light and clear as the North Dakota sky with a melodic quality that almost made it sound like singing. There was also something behind it Takuma couldn't quite identify….innocence maybe?

Then lips were being pressed against his own. And then it hit him, it hit him hard.

A:N/ Sorry it's so short. That just seemed like a natural place to end it. Sorry for the cliffy. Sorry again for taking so long to update too. Hopefully, I'll be able to sooner now. I'm very excited for the next chapters! I've started to call this yaoi town because all the guys from VK r in a pairing. Heheheh…. All classics with a few twists here and there. Well see you next chapter! It's sure to be a fun ride! :D

Love,
