Here's my first request, EVER! I'm excited! I don't own Vampire Knight or any of its characters or plot line. I only own the plot to this fanfic and the character sheet that led to the creation of Lilly Yoshino/Cross. The character is doesn't belong to me either! She was created by someone else!

"YOSHINO!" I woke up to the sound of my last name being screamed. I blinked at the teacher in front of me sleepily before looking around. Everyone's eyes were on me. It was so humiliating! I blushed crimson and slunk down in my seat slightly, making my dark brown hair cover my face.
"Well now that you're awake, wake up Cross and Kiryuu" he said grumpily. "How you three became prefects I'll never know. You're lazy and inconsiderate of those who want to learn." I wanted to tell him off but what could I say?
"Oh sorry sir, we were up patrolling all night so that none of the vampires who make up the Night Class eat any of the Kyaa Monsters also known as these IDIOTIC FAN GIRLS from the Day Class who just LOVE to sneak out late at night and take pictures!"
Umm, yeah try again. I thought as I gently shook Yuuki's shoulder and poked Zero's forehead until he grabbed my wrist and glared at me. It was then that I decided to do my infamous power nap. In other words, I fell asleep but kept my eyes open like a boss! I didn't move again until Zero wacked me over the head lightly with a book.
"Class is over Lily-chan." Yuuki told me. I nodded sleepily and followed her to the gates. If I wasn't awake when we got there, I was sure awake when the gates opened! The minute the gates opened it was like someone stepped on a chihuahua, recorded it, and Nightcored it! The Kyaa Monsters were so friggin loud I couldn't hear myself think! As always, Yuuki and I had trouble; Zero showed up late and terrorized his group, but then one particularly overzealous Aido fan pushed back at me.
"Out of the way damnit!" She yelled, shoving me by my shoulders and charging forward, screaming Aido's nickname "Idol". I fell backwards but was caught before I could hit the ground. I looked up, startled, only to find myself staring at Senri Shiki's blue-grey eyes.
"You ok?" He asked in his silky tenor voice, sending chills down my spine. I fought the shudders of pleasure that wanted to go through my body. At the sound of his voice I came out of my stupor and popped up out of his arms and bowed, turning bright red.
"Y-yes! Thank you Shiki-sempai!" I forced out past my embarrassment and quickly looked up to see Zero glaring at the Aido fan girl as Yuuki pulled her away to the Headmaster's office. He nodded and slunk back to Rima's side and grabbed another pocky stick to munch on. I sighed and gave myself a second to stare at his retreating figure before turning back to the Kyaa Monsters.
They looked slightly murderous but that changed to absolute fear when Zero put his hand on top of my head and pushed me back behind him slightly. I looked up at him once before plugging my ears with my fingers.
"WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU ALL MAKING A FUSS WITH ALL YOUR 'KYAA KYAA KYAA'?! WHO HAS TO WORK TO KEEP EVERYTHING IN ORDER HUH?! WHO HAS TO DEAL WITH THIS AND HAVE TO GET HALF TRAMPLED AND PUSHED OVER EVERY NIGHT?!" He yelled as they cringed at his loudness. "BACK TO YOUR DORMS! NOW!" I winced slightly at his volume but let him holler at them. He rarely gets such pleasures. When they left I unplugged my ears and he looked down at me.
"You ok?" He asked. I nodded. "You know right? That it's not possible. You and him."
"I know." I replied, blushing in humiliation. "There's a line… one that I can't cross. No matter how much I want to." I looked back at the vague white blob of Night Class students, easily spotting Shiki's mahogany colored hair in miserable longing. Zero saw it and nodded in understanding.
"I'll start patrolling." I said, walking the border. He let me go, knowing I wanted to be alone. I made my way to the roof and looked at Shiki through the window for a few minutes before turning away.
I continued my patrol through the night, spotting two Night Class members outside by a tree. Our tree really. I broke into a slight run and leapt from the building top and right into Kain's arms, as usual.
"You really should stop that, Lilly-chan." He said. I felt his chest rumble as his baritone voice formed my name with slight difficulty. There's really no "L" sound in the Japanese language, it's replaced by the "R" sound usually but everyone prefers it with the "L" sound.
"I know, but you'll catch me when you're here so why should I?" I replied with a grin. Only Kain and Aido could cheer me up when I get in this kind of mood. They both rolled their eyes as Kain set me down. I craned my neck to smile up at him. He was so tall! 6'2" compared to my small 5' frame. Not that Aido was much better; just 3 inches shy of being 6'.
"Mou, Lilly-chan, why do you always trust Akatsuki to catch you? Why don't you ever trust me to catch you?" Aido demanded, glomping me with a pout. I rolled my eyes at his antics. I detested perverts, but as perverted as he is, it was hard to hate Aido. He had an air around him that drew me to him, much like Ichijo did. They were like the sunlight of the Night Class. Almost always cheerful and happy. They were magnets, constantly drawing me to them.
"Because you're a pervert, Aido." I said, squirming from his hold, I smiled at him anyway. He grinned back, bringing the sun back in the night, despite its lack of belonging, and tugged lightly on my hair.
"You're so strange, Lilly-chan." He stated. "You could pass so easily as a vampire if it weren't for the blood in your veins. Your eyes are such a dark red and your hair is nearly black as midnight. They contrast strangely with your porcelain skin. It's pretty."
I blushed heavily at his compliments. Aido would constantly compliment me for this very reason. It amused him that I was so easily embarrassed and blushed so often. He was always finding new ways to make me flush in humiliation. The good kind, though.
"Shut up Hanabusa." I muttered, much to his amusement. He laughed at my words.
"But it's true! Just because I say these things to embarrass you doesn't mean they aren't true."
"Yeah, yeah." I replied, all too conscious of my abnormal looks. "I swear Hanabusa, one day I'm going to slice you with my sword just to irritate you."
"Aw, you know you love me." He grinned at me again. I rolled my eyes but smiled at him again.
"Yes, but don't ask me why." I joked. "Get back to class you two. There's probably Kyaa Monsters in the woods waiting for an opportunity like this."
Aido protested but gave in when Kain and I both gave him death glares. Ever the graceful loser, he only pouted as Kain pulled him away and I left to go back to my patrol. Within the hour I was proved right when I spotted two of them. One the girl who pushed me earlier and her friend who was a Shiki fan. I ignored her for the most part, just instructing her back to her dorm before hauling Aido's crazy fan back to the Headmaster to deal with.
"Ahhh, my adorable Lilly-chan!" He said with a goofy grin, glomming onto me. I grinned back before pulling the other girl in front of me.
"Twice in one day that we've had trouble with her. I thought you would want to see her again." I told him, still smiling at his antics.
"Thanks Lilly-chan! You work so hard, take the rest of the night off." He instructed. "You need it."
"Arigato Goziamasu¹ Headmaster!" I said. I truly was exhausted. I walked into the room I had to myself out of sheer luck and barely got through brushing my teeth and changing into my fuzzy, dark blue sleep shorts and black tank top before collapsing on my bed. I was out before I hit the mattress.
Arigato Goziamasu¹ Japanese for "thank you very much"
Woo! First request chapter, done! I shall reward myself by working on my own OC's story! YAYZ! I'm happy. If anyone else has an OC then PM me and I'll make one for ya, but I'll probably put it on hold until I finish this one. My own OC chappies can be rewards whenever I finish another chapter for someone else's OC request. I love you all my amazing readers! Also, some people are a little confused in the name aspect so I'll straighten it out a little. Senri, Akatsuki, and Hanabusa are all first names, not last. In Japan they introduce themselves last names first. Don't ask me why, I don't know. Just wanted to get that out there so I can avoid less confusion and stuff.
