Warnings: yaoi m/m relationship – don't like, don't read – you have been warned
Disclaimer: Vampire Knight and its characters belong to Matsuri Hino – just this plot is my idea.
Authors Note: a little note about myself: it's really hard to bring myself to start the writing, but once I have gathered all that is in me, I find it really easy to finish - but just when I don't stop writing for this or that reason, because than the work can lie around for days, even weeks, before I pick it up again. Why I'm saying this? It's a little info for those ones who are waiting for the next chapter of my other work - I'm sorry to say this, but I haven't gone around to even start writing the chapter. It's not because I don't have an idea about what to write, I just can't seem to start writing it. As for this story, I still don't know how it will end – but there will be at lest two or three more chapter. So here's the next chapter, and we'll see about the ending later...

-ZERO-
It's not the sun that woke me up, but my inner clock, screaming at me that it's high time to get out from under the warm and comfortable sheets. I took the day of from work today as I have a meeting with Yuuki in few hours. Taking a quick shower, putting on the beforehand prepared clothes and calling Cross... I still have time to lie lazily in bed. Turning onto my left side, I cuddle deeper into the... what is shifting beside me?
Opening my eyes for the first time, the brown curls and the sleeping face of one Kaname - if it's even his real name - comes into my vision. Turning onto my back without any hysterical outburst, I sigh as the realization hits me - I'm still at the shop. That complicates my plans a little.
Kicking the sheets away to reveal my naked body, I sit up slowly with the intention of not waking the sleeping male beside me. Looking around the room for my clothes, I see them scattered on the floor, alongside with his. I need to leave before he wakes up. Getting up, I stay still when I feel something flow down my thighs. Hiding the sudden blush on my cheeks with my hands, I inhale once to calm myself down - yes, I was the one being done. Again. He's skilful enough to pull my mind away from the thought of me wanting to dominate him.
Looks like I need a shower before I leave. Looking thru my fingers at his lying form as I hear some noise from him, so I make my way as fast as possible to the small attached bathroom he has - I have used it also the last time, so I know it's there. Closing the door behind me, I turn the water on, not wasting any more time by adjusting the temperature. The temperature's just right - a little colder, but it's great for cooling me down. Putting my hands on the smooth surface of the shower wall, I let the water fall freely onto my body. Closing my eyes wasn't the best idea, as images of last night flashed before them.
"Do you know that you have fainted halfway thru it?" Kaname's voice is suddenly by my ear, sounding so clear even thru the running water. "Were you so tired, or was I so good that you couldn't take all that enormous pleasure?"
"Nonsense!" I turn around abruptly and angry - why is he saying such a lie? And when did he even get here? Don't tell me that he was just pretending to be asleep all this time? "I don't remember fainting at all! Quite the opposite - weren't you the one immersed in the pleasure, whispering to me how good I feel...?" his lips on mine lock my next words away.
"Mmmm, that may be true," his lips left mine, but he continues kissing down my chin, and on my neck - which I have found out is very sensitive to the touch. Or is it just because it's him doing the kissing? I tilt my head back automatically, so that he can have a better access - I feel myself hardening from his innocent playing.
"No, wait!" even if it feels good, I don't have time for this - if I give in now, it won't end just by touches and kisses, and I don't have time for that right now. "I need... to go..."
"And how do you intend to go with that?" of course I know what he's talking about even without him finishing the sentence. I avert my eyes, his chocolate ones boring into me. "Let me help you," and then he's licking my earlobe and pushing me to the wall, pinning me to it with his body. His knee between my legs is pushing them apart against my will, and as he grabs my member, I grab onto him for support.
"I won't enter you," he says when he senses my body going stiff by his action - his finger found its way to my entrance, easily slipping inside. "I just want to help you clean this place, as I came deep inside you just few hours earlier," god. Must he whisper it to me right now? My blush deepens even more from his words, and I gasp as one more finger joins the first one, moving inside me and stretching me so that his… his… ummm… can come out. His other hand is pumping our cocks together, driving my body insane. Why is it that only just his touches, his words are making me this way?
I feel myself getting closer to my release, and the only thing which I can do that won't harm my pride any more than this devil have done already is to muffle my cries of pleasure as much as possible. I find myself even thrusting up my hips into his hand, and after few more seconds we come together in his hand.
"You're such a cutie," he whispers once more before he kisses me deeply again.

"Can you tell me where you were last night?" that's like Cross - to bang into ones room, when you don't expect it. Remind me why did I give him the key to my place? Oh well, the damage's done already. I just got back, and changed into fresh clothes. I look down at the two ties, but I decide against them. In situations like the one I will be in, I don't like the feeling of something strangling me.
"That attitude of yours - it's not fair towards Yuuki," he's not pushing me for an answer for his earlier question, as he knows really well where I was after I have parted with Yuuki. Leaning against the wall, he crosses his hands on his chest, looking all-serious towards me.
"I think that we should go. Or do you want to anger Yuuki?" I'm glad that he got it, not asking his stupid questions further, as I'm not in the mood for that right now - who does he think he is, my mother? Grabbing the dark blue jacket of my suit, I move towards the door - with one last look into the mirror. "Let us go."

-ZERO-
That's like her - to choose the most luxurious hotel in town. But what else was I expecting? This is a big day for the both of us, and she definitely wants everything to go smoothly. I have read some articles and even most of my friends recommended this place to me, so with the skills of the personnel, the whole reception should go smoothly.
"Zero," her cheerful voice reaches me as I enter the lobby, and she's walking immediately towards me when she spots me. She wears a light but elegant pink dress tied up around her neck, leaving her hands and back bare. It's a nice looking dress - definitely from some big name designer. Long silver earrings are showing out of her dark hair that she decided to keep down.
"I hope I'm not late," I kiss her on her cheek - our way of greeting.
"No, you're just right on time. I want you to finally meet my brother before we go up to the ballroom." Her brother - her only family. Their parents tragically died when she was young, leaving her with just her brother and a big financial empire. Even being as close as we are, I have never met her brother before - there was no time, as like she says, he's busy taking care of their family business, which consists of the chain of many smaller firms focusing around the mother corporation. She also doesn't speak about him too much, and sometimes I get the feeling that they have grown apart somewhere along the way. But this is an important day for Yuuki, so of course he would be present too.
"Just a moment, I'll call him over. Kaname!" she turns around and waves at someone that's standing by the window, looking out. Kaname? Did I hear her right? But that can't be... Of course not. It must be just a coincidence - there must be more Kanames running on the face of the earth. My breath stops when the tall man standing there is slowly turning around, and my heart stops beating for a second as those chocolate orbs meet mine - it is him. What twisted game is fate playing with us?
"Kaname onii-sama, I want to introduce my most important person to you," Yuuki pulls him closer, literally hanging herself at his arm as she drags him closer to me. From his first reaction I can tell that he's as much shocked to see me here as I am, but he's trying to keep a neutral face. I should also try and look normally - or at least as normal as possible after seeing the person you have just spend the night with standing before you in the last place possible.
"Zero," her voice jerks my attention back to the pair of beautiful siblings standing before me. "This is Kaname Kuran, my onii-sama," yeah, I know that much already. "Kaname, this is Zero Kiryuu," her elegant hand outstretched towards me, "my fiancé."

-KANAME-
For some reason, I was really reluctant to come to this engagement party of my younger sister. But not coming here would just delay a little the meeting with her fiancé - I still can't believe it. I was so shocked to see him standing there, even more when Yuuki said out aloud what I already got from his look. I knew about her engagement, but because it was so sudden - I didn't even knew that she was seeing someone - I hadn't had the time to meet the lucky one yet. I think that we grew apart somewhere in the process and with us living apart, she isn't telling me everything like she used to when we were kids.
But this is too much. For one hour I was forced to - because Yuuki would be saddened if I just suddenly left - watch them as they announced their engagement and then thanked with happy faces all those who congratulated the couple. But even if it pains me, I must say that they look good together. But the question that is going round and round in my mind right now is - is he able to satisfy her needs? I mean, with him being gay - or is he bi - and I can't shake the yummy image of him when he's being held by me. That's another thing I can't stomach - how can he act all happy like that by her side when just few hours earlier he got up from my bed after another night filled with passionate and hot sex? I nearly broke the glass in my hand from the anger that suddenly overtook me.
After few more painful minutes and another few more glasses - I'm not drunk, mind you - I have cornered him in a secured corner of the ballroom. For some reason I got the feeling that he's trying with all his might to avoid me. Every time our eyes accidentally met he looked the other way, every time I tried to approach him he found someone else to talk to - like a little sulking kid. I feel like a cat chasing after a mouse. But I don't really like this game that he's so eager to play with me - I need to talk to him.
"What?" he asks when I'm not breaking the uncomfortable silence spreading around us. "Fain - if you won't speak, then let me ask you something. Did you know? Did you know who I was the first time we met?" oh god - how can he think that! I'm not a sick person who would willingly destroy my sisters happiness by sleeping with her fiancé. But wait - I did exactly that. He, as much as I, should know that we can't keep what happened between us from Yuuki.
"Of course I didn't know who you were," I answer him quickly when his lavender eyes look deep into mine. Is it sick of me to think that he looks so fuckable right now - standing with that angry expression on his face, his cheeks a little redder than usual, and those lips... Snap out of it, Kaname.
"Does Yuuki know that you're whoring yourself?" what's this? A thousand question quiz? I'm not doing it because I'm dependant on it - I just wield it as a means of ventilation from my busy work. But now that he has brought this out, I too have an important question for him.
"Say, Zero-chan," I lean closer to him, trapping him between the wall behind him and my body before him. With my hand on the wall by his head, I lock our eyes in a staring contest - I'm surprised he hasn't barked at me because of the girly nickname. "Does Yuuki know that you're gay?" the silence surrounded us again. I can't tell what he's thinking thru those unreadable eyes.
Not saying anything? That's strange. I maybe don't know him for a long time, but one thing what I'm sure about is, is that he wouldn't keep to himself like this if something weren't wrong with him. Suddenly he averts his head, drinking the whole glass of whatever liquid he has in it - was he holding the glass all the time? Now I know what is that red on his face - he's drunk.
"Zero! Kaname!" not now - and I have even started to get my hopes up that I will get some word out of him. Taking one step back from him, I look in the direction Yuuki's approaching us from. With the corner of my eye I see that he's not doing the same, but staying the way he was. He doesn't wants to face her? Well, maybe I can help him with that.
"Sorry Yuuki, but it looks like he got a little bit drunk," I say as she's right before me, not giving her the chance to say anything. "Look Yuuki, I will take him home. You should stay and enjoy the rest of the party - we don't want the future husband to cause some commotion here, now do we?" I'm taking advantage of her a little naive state - okay, so she's a little too naive sometimes. But that's also a part of her that everyone loves.
"Oh, thank you Kaname - you're a sweetie."

-KANAME-
I was surprised that he went with me willingly, without as much as a protest. I decided to leave my car behind, grabbing us a taxi - I know what you all think, but I'm not as desperate as to take advantage of a drunken person. After he somehow managed to mumble the address, he fell silent again. And that continued thru the whole ride - with him not even as much as looking my way.
When the driver announced that we're already at our destination, I literary had to drag him out of the car. After paying the fee, with my hand holding him to me, I made my way in - and it was really hard. Have you ever walked with a drunken person leaning against you? At least he wasn't making noisy drunken noises. The janitor down in the lobby of the apartment building helped me get to the right floor and door - I don't know how else I would have found it otherwise, as it looks like Zero is dead to the world already.
"Straight and than the last door on the left," the old man smiles at me in understanding as he opens the door for me - does the fact that he has the keys to Zeros place mean that this isn't the first time someone has brought Zero back here in this condition? What's this little jealousy I feel?
"Thank you - I won't be long," why have I said that last part? Not to look like one of his partners he's bringing with him back? Oh well. The old man doesn't say anything, closing the door behind me as we're in. Now to get this over with. I hope that he won't mind that I'm not taking of my shoes as I'm dragging him in the direction of the door I hope his bedroom is behind.
I haven't spared a second glance to the whole apartment, but from what I saw it's just like him - beautiful, spacious, but not packed up with unnecessary things. Finally at the door - just a little bit and I can leave. As I open the door, I stay like a statue, frozen to the ground - the big king-sized bed is what's greeting me. So this is where... Kaname, stop it. I shake the unpleasant thought away from my mind even before it can form.
Tightening my grip of his slender waist, I take the first step inside. But of course it couldn't be just a normal trip to the bed - oh, no. The fate has decided to not play fair, so somewhere along the way, without me even registering it, I have tripped on something that I haven't realized was in my way. The bed of course has repressed our fall, but like I said that damn fate. I have landed with Zero under me.
I know that I have told myself that I would keep my hands away from him, not taking advantage of an unconscious, drunken person, but who can say no to such an alluring view? His cheeks are still red because of the alcohol, his silver hair is spread around his head, and his lips - oh god, those lips... slightly parted, tempting me. I swallow hard as I run one finger thru their soft texture, and that's it. I can't do this. And where's the harm in it? I'm sure that he won't know. Leaning closer, I press lightly my lips to his, closing my eyes along the way as I'm relishing their texture.
"Kaname?" oh shit. "Why are you... What are you doing?" the quiet voice demands an answer from me. Swallowing, I sit up beside the sleeping silverette - how blessed he is not to have to go thru this. I look at the person standing in the doorway.
"Yuuki," I don't let the nervousness show in my voice. "What are you doing here?"
"I was worried, Kaname, because you looked strange," so she had noticed something was off after all. "Just... answer my question onii-sama: what are you doing to my fiancé?" should I tell her the truth? Well, what she saw can't be covered up with any pathetic lies.
"Yuuki, I think I'm falling for him," there - I said it. Again that pregnant pause is spreading out - oh how I hate such moments. I don't tear my eyes away from her, waiting for her next move. She looks like she's thinking deeply about something. She opens her mouth - will it come now? She closes her small mouth without saying anything, biting on her lower lip before she turns around and quietly walks away.
That's it? No other reaction?

TBC…
-Thank you for reading – so the secrets are out. Now that Yuuki knows, what will she do? It looks like both of the siblings want Zero… or not? What's the truth behind Zeros and Yuukis sudden engagement?
