As they walked to the dorm, Elena and Chloe remained silent, unless a question was asked; while Kaname explained the rules and tried to carry on a conversation, by asking questions about them. When they reached the room Kaname showed them around, and took his leave. Automatically, after Kaname shut the door, Elena expressed her deep amazement over the room. Kaname, who was standing right out side the door started to silently laugh at her, slightly, childish amazement. Chloe on the other hand sat on a sofa in the living room part of the dorm and let Elena have her fun and every so often laugh or asked a question.

After awhile Elena calmed down and went to sit down across from Chloe.

"What time is it?" Chloe asked.

"A quarter till six. Why?"

"No reason, I just thought your class started at six-thirty."

"OH MY GOSH, You're right! I've got to get ready, why didn't you ask me earlier?!"

"I assumed you knew." laughed Chloe. Elena quickly got ready, said goodbye to Chloe, and was on her way out; when suddenly a character came out of the wall and jumped at her. Elena squealed out of surprise. The character licked her face then cuddled up to her. It was then she realized that it was Girk, a stone gargoyle that Vlad made in his sleep. She started laughing so hard, that she fell over.

Chloe, in panic, asked "what's wrong?"

"Vlad… sent…Girk" Elena answered between laughs. Girk leaped into Chloe's arms. Chloe started laughing too. Elena regained her composure, said her goodbyes, and left. She was skipping down the hall way, about to pass what she recognized as Kaname's door; when his door opened and he stepped out. She tried to skid to a stop but she was going to fast, and ran right into him, knocking him down and landing atop of him.

"Oops, sorry Kaname-kun." She said breathlessly.

"It's okay." He said with a reassuring smile. She got from atop of him and held out her hand to help him up. When he grabbed her hand, her heart skipped a beat. She tried to hide her embarrassment but it showed on her cheeks.

Kaname smiled again and said "It's okay everyone makes mistakes, don't worry about it, okay?" while dusting himself down. He was now dressed prim and proper in his school uniform.

"Oh, umm, o–okay, thanks." glad for his misunderstanding

"There was something I wanted to ask you."

"Umm sure, what is it?" she asked as panic and hope bloomed in her heart and mind.

"Do you remember me from when we were kids?"

"Uhh, I think so but something is confusing me." she said instantly shut down and relaxing 'Of course he won't remember, idiot what were you hoping for?' she asked herself

"What?"

"Yuki-san, I thought she was your sister."

"She is and isn't."

"But weren't you guys 'destined to be wed'?" she said emphasizing the words to make them sound powerful.

"We were, but a lot of things happened and she fell in love with Kiryu, Zero."

"Oh yeah, she lived as a human for awhile, right?"

"Yes, and after she regained her memories, she lived with me for awhile but she went back to him eventually." He said sadly

"Oh, I'm so sorry; I didn't mean to make you remember all that." She said panicked.

"Oh no, its fine, I remember every night I see her with him." He said forcing a smile.

Elena was upset at this fact. She stomped her foot and powerfully stated "That's wrong! From now on I'm going to make sure you don't remember such sad thought, no matter what!"

"You don't have to d–"

"OH YES I DO!" she shouted and grabbed his hand "No friend of mine, or my brother's, will suffer in my presence!" she stated while dragging him along

"Okay then" said Kaname laughing and catching up with her so he was walking with her instead if getting dragged .

They made their way down stairs, drawing everyone's attention, while talking and laughing about things they did in the past. They were walking through the Moon dormitory gate, on their way to class, when Elena noticed that they were going to pass Yuki and Zero. Elena made sure she had Kaname's full attention so that he couldn't concentrate on anything else. It worked; they passed right by without him noticing them or if he did notice he didn't show it. As they walked by Elena noticed that Yuki couldn't keep from looking at them, with saddened eye. Elena felt instantly saddened and guilty, but she forgot about that, for the most part, when she turned back and saw Kaname happy. She didn't know why but Kaname's smile melted every sad thought and worry about the future she had and made every thought she had seem so distant. 'BALONEY, you know exactly why. just DON'T get your hopes up on something that'll NEVER HAPPEN!' she reprimanded herself.

Through the crowd questions and comments circled; questions like: 'who is she?', 'what is she doing with Kaname-sempi?', 'is she his girlfriend?', 'have you ever seen Kaname-sama so happy?' and 'what's up with Yuki-chan?' When they passed a group of guys, one raised his voice and asked Elena "S-sorry to ask b–but… who are you?" just to be funny she answered in Romanian. Everyone looked at her; then Kaname barked a short laugh that made everyone jump and look at him. After he stopped, she introduced herself in perfect Japanese, flashed a radiant smile and went back to talking to Kaname. They continued to class, during class Elena took the time to get familiar with the rest of the night class students, close to the end of the lesson an unexpected guest came. He had chin length red hair with silver streaks and green eyes. Elena immediately ran up and tackled him.

"I can't believe you're here! I missed you so much! Hey everyone this is Ryan."

"HEY!" Ryan exclaimed and turned his head towards Ichijou. "Elena, PLEEEE~~ASE correct these people." He said tightly.

"What's wrong?"

"They think we are couple!" spiting out the word like it was poison.

"EWWW! No way, for one, he's like a brother to me and secondly, he's Gay!" there were many different reactions, some relived, some disappointed, some an awe, and some disgusted. Elena and Ryan busted out laughing. When they got control of themselves and walked back to were Elena had been sitting next to Kaname and sat down.

"You read minds." Kaname stated. Ryan looked at him, and after awhile jumped back almost falling out of his chair.

"What's wrong Ry-Ry?" Elena asked startled by his reaction.

"He has a mean mind!"

"What do you mean?"

"Oh, nothing, n–never mind."

"Tell me!" Elena exclaimed. Ryan just shook his head. Before she could say anything else, the bell rang. Ryan picked her up and tossed over his shoulder like a bag of potatoes and ran out of the classroom. Everyone just look after them; when suddenly Kaname started chuckling. Everyone stared at him but then, as if that same thought saddened him, he sighed and stood up. He started to walk out the door, with everyone following close on his heels, just as Ryan ran by being chased by Zero, followed by Elena. She skipped by but a few seconds latter skipped back and stopped in front of Kaname.

"What are you still doing here" she asked

"Class just ended two minutes ago."

"Really!? It feels so long ago."

Kaname chuckled "What is going on?"

"Huh?" she asked cocking her head to the side.

"Why is Kiryu-kun chasing Valentine-san?"

"OH!" she exclaimed and started to run away. She turned around "come on Kaname-kun!" she grabbed his hand and started to run, pulling him along with her.
