I Love You, After All

002: MAGIC OF LOVE

When the door of happiness closes, another opens but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.

The first thing he felt when he regained consciousness was pain. A sharp, blinding pain radiating throughout his lower body. A cool breeze slipped in through the curtains, tickling his skin and making him shiver involuntarily. With last's nights memory still fresh in his mind, his eyes snapped open. He scanned his surrounding and sighed in relief as he realized that he was in his room. He threw the covers off his body and swung his legs off the bed. With an unsteady sway on his step, he walked into the bathroom. He undressed himself and turned the shower on.

'You should have stopped it right there.'

He should have, but he didn't.

He would never forget the look in Kuran's face.

But they hated each other.

That wasn't the point, was it?

"You are a vampire, Kiryuu. That is who you are."

Then why didn't he destroy him where he stood? He could have stopped his heart from beating. It won't take more than a few seconds to die. Why did he allow him to live?

'What now, Kiryuu Zero?' he thought.

Zero wasn't really surprised when he saw Kaname in his room. He had already sensed the pureblood. Kaname, on the other hand, was cursing himself. Seeing him now, hair still wet, his body rippling with muscles, he almost wanted to hug him and taste him again.

He took a deep breath and glared at the pureblood. "What do you want?"

"Do you have to sound so formal? What happened to the sweet Zero I just made love last night?" and gave him his sexy smile that Zero held his breath.

"What are you doing here, Kuran?" It came out harsher than he intended.

Kaname sighed. "I want us to talk."

"Get out!" he turned away from him. His hands were trembling with rage.

"No. we will talk about what happened last night."

"Forget it." He said shaking his head wildly. "I don't want to talk about it."

"Though I tried to be gentle, I know that I hurt you." Kaname looked at his body. "I want to see your body."

"No!" Zero stepped back.

"I've seen it all, Zero. Your modesty is too late." Before Zero could move, Kaname grabbed his arm and removed his unbuttoned shirt. "Does it hurt?" he asked softly and tenderly run his fingers on his back.

Zero slapped the hand away. His touch is burning him. "Please, Kuran."

Kaname only stared at him, aware of their closeness. The nearness made him quiver as he tried to catch up with the pace of his heart. He gestured to kiss him but he shook his head in adamant refusal. He held his chin up. He looked intensely into his pair of evading eyes. "Look at me, Zero." He muttered with obvious authority.

He was tremendously uncomfortable, still he followed him obediently. Call him a fool but his stupid heart keeps confusing his mind. Now, they're already kissing each other passionately, convicted by each other's hidden desires.

He groaned when his lips traveled down his neck. He then roamed the tips of his fingers down his back, feeling the soft skin as his hand moved further down.

"K-Kuran…" Zero gasped out. His arms gripped hard on the pureblood's shoulders as his body became weak and powerless.
