You Don't Realize: Chapter 2


Zero plopped down on his bed, exhausted from the long night of patrolling. He changed into his silk pajamas and settled down again on the cold sheets. Usually he would take this time to look over his day, the boring classes, Kaien being his annoying self, and those energetic fan girls. But recently all he could think about was the weird feelings he had when he thought about the Pureblood prince. At first he brushed them aside, blaming it on how it was only natural to appreciate someones good looks or whatever other excuse he could come up with. He refused to believe that they were his true feelings. Because he knew they were not the ones that he was suppose to have for his worst enemy.

Maybe it was envy? Or jealousy? But he had to admit that their was something about Kaname that was alluring. He had everything Zero had ever wanted.

Slowly drifting off to sleep Zero though about how this had all started, how these feeling had developed about a month ago.


"Kaname-senpai." the brown haired girl said looking up at the handsome boy in front of her. The words caught Zero's attention and he looked up from where he had been patrolling. He was hoping to have a pleasant night, without any disturbances , but he knew he wasn't going to happen upon seeing the boy arrive.

"Kuran." Zero snapped walking over to where the two were standing. "What are you doing here? Don't you have classes to attend? " he said, glaring at the older boy as he spoke.

Kaname watched the angry hunter fume at him, and smirked. Which made Zero become even angrier.

"It's okay, Zero." Yuki said as she smiled at the Moon Dorm student. "Kaname-senpai can stay for a few more minutes, right?" She said hopefully.

"Sorry, Yuki, but Kiryuu is right." he paused turning his attention back to Zero. "I was just coming over to talk to him, about personal matters." Kaname saying the last part in a suggestive matter and the silverette wondered what Kaname was playing at.

What did Kuran want? Zero thought as noticed the slight smirk on the others face.

"So, if you would follow me." Kaname said gesturing to the Moon dorms behind him. "Shall we talk in my room?"

Zero hesitated before deciding the faster he went the faster he would be able to leave, so he followed silently not bothering to look behind at Yuki. He wasn't comfortable seeing the two talk with each other, even if only a few words had been exchanged. He didn't like the two together, or the way Yuki seemed to forget about everyone else except the Pureblood when the boy was talking to her. He was eye catching, sure, all vampires were, and he was charming towards her, but he was demanding and manipulative. He was almost the exact opposite of Zero, and the silverette hated it.

He was a privileged Pureblood who looked down upon others, especially an ex-human like himself.

Upon arriving at the Pureblood dorm he sat down directly across from him on one of the plush coaches in his studies.

"So, what did you want?" Zero said breaking the silence. He wasn't in the mood to play sick mind games with the boy, and hated the fact they were in the others room.

"Straight to the point as always, aren't we?" Kaname said, a slight smile adoring his beautiful features.

"Whatever." Zero scoffed, turning his head to the side.

"The reason why I wanted to talk to you, was about your blood lust?" that got Zero's attention as his head turned back in surprise, looking right at the Pureblood.

"What does that have to do with you?" he said angrily.

"I was getting to that, before you interrupted..." he paused to regain what he was about to say. "I was actually wondering if the blood tablets are working."

Zero took a moment to think over what he should say. Truthfully they weren't doing anything for him and the taste was always so horrible. But he didn't want to give Kaname the sense of superiority because of his bloodlust. He would not lose to him. He had never adapted well to the tablets, even from the first time he tried them. Maybe it was because he knew the blood he needed was a Pureblood's. No. Not just any Pureblood's, but Shizuka's.

Unfortunately that was no longer possible. Shizuka was dead. Along with the only blood that had any hope of preventing him from falling into a Level E. Eventually, but inevitably he would be over come by blood lust and fall into a state of no return.

So, why did it matter if his blood lust was growing? What could Kuran do? And more importantly, why would he want to?

"There working just fine." he said lowering his head slight not wanting to look at the older boy.

"Really?" Kaname asked questionably while he leaned forward pulling Zero's lowered head up to meet his. His elegant fingers under the silverette's chin, while their faces only inches apart.

Too close. Zero thought.

"Are you sure you won't give in and hurt the one's around you?"

Zero quickly swatted the Pureblood's hand away at the question, anger growing in his eyes. Kuran didn't care about his well being. He was concerned about Yuki's.

"I know what you're implying, Kuran." he practically spat the words out. "I would never hurt Yuki."

"Hmm? Well I can't take your word for it, since you have endangered her before." Kaname said, not breaking eye contact. Upon hearing those words Zero felt guilty. He usually tried to stay away for everyone whenever he couldn't bare the lust anymore, but now that Yuki knew he was a vampire she would always run to him offering her blood like it was nothing. He was torn in what to do in those situations, not wanting to hurt her.

"What can I do if the tablets aren't working?" he said finally admitting the embarrassing truth.

"I was thinking recently about a deal we could work out, that would deal with your blood lust and keep Yuki safe." Kaname said casually, "This will only work if you agree to some conditions." he added.

Zero finally interested for once in what the Pureblood was saying, slowly he calmed down and gave his attention to Kaname. "What conditions?"

"Glad you asked. There will be some things I need you to agree to." Kaname said in a more serious voice "In exchange for Yuki's safety I will offer you my blood."

Zero, at first, wasn't sure if he heard Kuran right. Drinking his blood? In all honesty he had always wondered what a Pureblood's blood would taste like. Probably sinfully, wonderfully, sweet. He could almost taste the warm blood making its way down his dry throat and-

Zero stopped himself from his thoughts. Blushing yet scowling a little bit at the realization of actually drinking Kuran's blood.

"So?" Kaname asked snapping Zero out of his thoughts. "Do you agree?"

"What are these conditions." Zero demanded, getting over his earlier thoughts.

"In order for this deal to work, I need you to agree to not tell anyone about this exchange. I don't want more conflict with both you and the night class." Kaname stated.

Zero was sure Kaname wasn't telling the truth in why he didn't want everyone to know but he didn't mind. The hunter certainly didn't want people finding out that he depended on the Pureblood for blood.

"Okay, but I'm only doing this for Yuki."

"Alright, now shall we start?" Kaname suggested.

"Wait...right now?" Zero asked a little surprised that the Pureblood was so straightforward.

"Okay, so how do we do this?"Zero asked not wanting to show how embarrassed he was.

"Come over here." Kaname motioned him over. Zero got up and made his way to the older boy who was sitting down on a plush armchair.

"Sit." the Pureblood said.

Zero slowly sat down on top of Kaname facing him as he straddled his hips. The Pureblood smirked at this position, never expecting he would see the hunter this way. He turned his head slightly to the side to give the boy better access to his neck. Zero eyes instantly turned red upon seeing this. He leaned closer, drew his fangs out, and bit dow-


Zero was awoken by a loud banging on his bedroom door.

"Zero, wake up, were going to be late for school again." He heard Yuki's voice from the other side of the door. Groaning he sat up in his bed, turning to check the clock near his bedside. Rubbing his eyes for a few seconds, he let the numbers come into focus and realized there were ten minutes before class started. He quickly pulled the sheets off his body and told Yuki she could leave without him, he didn't want the girl to be late because of him. As fast as he could manage he changed into his uniform, brushed his teeth and headed out; not bothering to brush is hair or fix his uniform.

He exited his dorm making sure he locked the door, not wanting anyone to enter his room while he was gone, and headed to class. Slowly he walked to through campus taking in the morning air. Thinking back about the dream he had last night his face started to heat up again. He wasn't sure why he agreed to Kuran's offer and still couldn't wrap his head around why the older boy would go so far as to keep Yuki safe, but he realized that during that meeting he had started developing feelings for the other.

His feelings had been growing more and more in the past month and last night proved that it was getting worse.

He was now dreaming about the Pureblood. he though as he felt his cheeks begin to heat up again.

Why am I blushing so much, Fuck. he mentally screamed.

At that moment Zero bumped into something, causing him to fall back onto the cement ground.

"I'm sorry, are you okay?" A voice said. Rubbing his head Zero looked up and was met with a very handsome boy. The boy had light brown hair that flowed down to his ears. He was also wearing black slacks and a button up blue dress shirt that complimented his stunning blue eyes. The boy held his hand out helping Zero back to his feet.

"No, it okay. I wasn't really watching where I was going."

"Don't worry about it. Actually since your here, I was wondering if you could help me find the chairman's office. I'm Aster Shouta, I just transferred here." The boy said smiling.
