Epilouge

Things went pretty smoothly, getting to the headmaster's office. To avoid the day Class girls, Aido and I ran as fast we could.

Things also went pretty well in the headmaster's office. For one thing, Zero wasn't there. He was taking advantage that there wasn't any classes today. Instead,he was out hunting vampires ( headmaster told me this). Most likely, he was having a blast at his all day killing spree.

Without Zero being here, the atmosphere of the room wasn't all that tense. However, it did get tense a couple of times….

Chapter 2: Gear Up!

The headmaster was busy reading something when we came into his office. The expression he had on his face looked serious.

From the sound of the door opening, he stopped reading. Instead, he looked at Aido and me, welcoming.

"Yay, Yuuki-chan and Aido-chan are here!" he said gleefully.

'Chan? Yuuki-chan and Aido-chan? What the heck…'

I glanced at Aido to see what how he felt about being called, Aido-chan.

He looked rather disturbed about the suffix the headmaster was using with his surname. Chan, really… Aido was called Hana by his sisters however; he probably doesn't want to be looked at as cute or rather, femininely.

'Way to go to make someone upset by just welcoming them headmaster.'

The atmosphere of the room was tense.

"What job do you have for us headmaster?" I tried to lighten the atmosphere.

"I need you to hunt some vampires." He answered.

"Do you know their names?" I asked.

His face darkened.

"No."

"Do you know at least how many there are of them?" I pressed on.

"Sorry, I don't know that either."

I squeezed my eyes shut.

"Do you at least know what they looked like?"

"…I don't know."

"….WHAT KIND OF INFO IS THIS? HOW IN THE WORLD AM I GOING TO FIND THEM?" I snapped.

The headmaster looked at me apologetically.

"Sorry, the Vampire Society doesn't have that much info about them. All we know is that they kidnap some people. We don't even know if the people kidnapped are dead or alive."

I began to glare at him.

"Do you atleastknow where we can find them?"

He didn't answer. He pushed his glasses up and laced his fingers together. He laid his hands on his desk and remained silent for about five minutes.

Don't tell me he didn't know that too! How the heck am I going to find them?

I continued to stare at the headmaster. He was still silent after about another five minutes.

He definitely didn't know where they're at.

Then, I saw a smile crept on his face. He opened his mouth and spoke.

"They're at the amusement park!" he smiled.

"What the hell? Why were you silent for TEN MINUTES? Really, what's with the dramatic pause?" I demanded.

Aido's reaction was different from mine. He was gloomy before about being called Aido-chan but, his face lit up as soon as he heard amusement park.

"We get to go to an amusement park?" he asked cheerfully.

I looked at him in disgust. Now, he was happy?

"Aido, this is work. We're not going to play." I snapped.

He looked at me gloomy.

"Awww….Yuuki, come on! It's an amusement park; you're supposed to play at amusement parks." He begged.

"No, it's work." I stated.

The headmaster looked at the both of us. Then, he looked at Aido only.

"Aido-chan, it is work." he told him.

Then he swiftly turned to me.

"But,Yuuki-chan, just because its work doesn't mean you can't also play. You two can play AND work." He stated.

Aido grinned at the headmaster.

"So, we can play?" he asked.

The headmaster smiled and nodded his head.

"Yes, the both of you can." He answered.

'These two…are surely like kids- especially Aido, the headmaster is just weird.'

I was about to leave but the headmaster stopped me.

"Yuuki-chan, do you remember the woman you called me to pick up back at the Ice Cream Parlor?"

I turned my attention away from the door and looked at the headmaster skeptically instead.

"What about her?" I asked.

"It appears when she was waiting for the punishment she was supposed to receive….she killed herself."

"I see..." This was all I could say. She did try to kill Aido so why not pay for her sins and die?

The headmaster let out a cough which brought my attention back to him again.

"Also…." he began.

"What is it?" I asked him.

His eyes grew serious and his face darkened. His hands that were laced together were now clenched into fists. To put it simply, he was most likely goanna tell me something I didn't want to hear.

The headmaster saw me eyeing him. He took a deep breath and began to speak.

"You two aren't the only ones going."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, this is goanna be a tough job and, I wasn't goanna ask for your help, but I think your help will be needed." He paused and glanced at me in the corner of his eye. He saw that I noticed him and began to continue on. "Actually, we already have two people from the Hunter Society to take of this job. Also, you know the two people we're sending." he confessed.

I stared at him dumfounded. "It's Zero and his master, Yagari, right?"

"Yes…" he breathed.

I squeezed my eyes shut again and pinched the bridge of my nose with my thumb and forefinger.

The reason why I was acting like this wasn't because I dislike Zero. No, it was the opposite. I like Zero. I knew him since when I was a kid. I consider him as a childhood friend of mine.

His cold and laid back attitude and his quick temper, I grew to like.

Zero had told me that he would kill me one day. After that day, he looked at me with piercing eyes and was always cold with me.

I don't dislike Zero. I just don't like seeing him now-it makes me sad. He doesn't see me as a friend anymore. Quite the opposite, he sees me as an enemy or, his prey.

Suddenly I heard someone calling my name.

"Yuuki…" It was Aido.

"Mmmmm…" I answered.

I opened my eyes and looked at the headmaster.

"Are you guys going to do it?" he asked.

Aido looked at me worried while the headmaster's face was expressionless. I couldn't tell what he was thinking.

I took a deep breath and sighed. "We'll do!" I answered quite confidently.

The headmaster smiled.

"You guys are going to be a big help. Let me call Yagari-chan and, tell him you're coming."

He reached out for the phone on his desk.

"Yagari-chan?" Aido and I both asked.

The headmaster smiled while he was dialing the number.

"He gets mad when I call him Yagari-chan." he said happily.

"You like making him mad?" I asked.

The headmaster grinned at me bigly.

"Yes, he looks absolutely, cute when he's mad." The headmaster answered.

(Aido's thoughts….)

'He's definitely gay….'

(Yuuki's thoughts.…)

I knew it….he's gay. He did ooze out gay pheromones when he told Zero to drink his blood.

We both stared at the headmaster.

So in the end, it was decided that Aido and I would meet Yagari and Zero tomorrow at the amusement park at 2 o'clock sharp.

(The Next Day…)

I've just about done with getting ready for the job. I got Artemis, some bandages, and some money (Cause Aido will definitely want to go on rides) all in my bag.

I knocked on Aido's room to see if he was ready yet but, he wasn't there. So I decided to check downstairs instead.

I reached the downstairs of the Moon Dormitory. No one was around. I wonder where he went. Was he pigging out in the freezer again, eating ice cream?

I was about to turn to go into the kitchen but a pair of white porcelain like hands stopped me. They were wrapped around my neck.

"Guess who?" a husky voice whispered into my ear.

The voice was familiar and the way the person held me had to be one person-Aido.

"Is it, Aido-chan?" I teased.

His grip tightened.

"What did you say?" he asked.

"Is it, Aido-chan?" I repeated.

I looked up at him. His face twitched and he revealed a playful smile.

"Did you say Aido-chan?" he asked.

"Yes, I did or perhaps, you want to be called Hana-chan?" I teased again.

Aido's grip tightened again.

"Aido, I can't breathe." I choked.

"Promise you won't call me Aido-chan or Hana-chan?" he threatened.

"I-I promise." I breathed.

"Then, I'll let you go." he smiled.

As promise, he let me go.

"What kind of guy goes choking the girl he likes?" I asked him.

"Not me." he smiled again.

"Liar, you were choking me."

He stopped smiling. His face grew cold and serious.

"I don't like you."

My face turned white.

"You don't? Then, when you told me you like me, you were lying?"

His face was still cold and serious.

"You're mixing up my words." he answered simply.

"What do you mean?" I looked at him skeptically.

"I don't like you." he said.

"Then, don't come with me to do the job." I snapped.

I started to walk towards the door. I walked about only three feet and stopped. I didn't stop because I wanted too. No, Aido was clinging to my shirt.

"I don't like you." he repeated.

"Yeah, I know! You already said that already." I snapped at him again.

"You don't get it!" he demanded.

He dropped his head down a little. "I don't like you. I…"

Aido redden.

He continued on. "I don't like you. Like, doesn't express my full feelings towards you. Liking is, a feeling of attracting. I don't like you. I-I, I love you…" he confessed.

"….."

Aido continued on. "I love you. I'm infatuated by you. I have a deep, tender feeling of affection and solicitude towards you. I have an intense desire and attraction towards you. Your blood is what I hunger the most."

"….."

"S-sorry, I seem to have made things uncomfortable for you, didn't I?"

His expression was apologetic and his face was, the reddest I ever seen.

"I'm not uncomfortable. I'm just embarrassed to hear you say that. Uh! I mean, thank you for telling me that."

His face was still red and mine was also.

"Let's go to the amusement park." I tried to lighten the mood.

"Amusement park?" two voices asked.

I looked behind us. It was Shiki and Rima. They were both looking at us and eating pocky.

"Sh-Shiki and, Rima! How long have you guys been there?" I asked them.

"Since Yuuki came down." Rima answered.

That means they saw…EVERYTHING!

"You guys are a….hmmm, what's the word I'm looking for?" Shiki sighed.

"A baka couple. You guys are really a baka couple." Rima finished for him.

Shiki hit his fist down on his palm as if he just figured something out. "Oh yeah, baka. Baka was the word I was looking for."

"What do you mean?" Aido and I said at the same time.

Shiki smiled a little. "Well, you two are two idiots in love."

"And you guys always fight and cause a commotion. You guys even publicly show your affection for each other two." Rima sighed.

"No we don't!" Aido and I answered again.

We both redden.

Shiki and Rima both smiled.

"Never mind that, cousin; can we come to the amusement park too? Rima and I don't have work today."

"I don't think-" Shiki cut in.

"We'll tell all the students of Cross Academy what happen." Shiki smiled wickedly.

I looked at Aido. He sighed then nodded.

"Fine, you guys can come." I growled.

So Shiki, Rima, Aido and I, went to the amusement park to meet Yagari and Zero.

(Well, this is chapter 2. I hoped you liked it. :D I did! Please write a review to my story when you are done reading. I really love this AidoXYuuki pairing. Shiki, they truly are a baka couple. :D Please note that behind the scenes is just a thing I wrote for the fun of it. –Alice Sakurai)

Behind the Scenes- Blackmail

Yuuki- Rima, Shiki, you guys really like to blackmail Aido and me, don't you?

Shiki and Rima- Of course we do.

Rima- You guys will do whatever we want if we blackmail, the two of you.

Rima- But you guys won't do what we say if we don't blackmail you.

Rima- Shiki, we can hear you and, you're smiling again.

Shiki- (shocked) What?

Aido- Yeah, we could hear you the entire time.
