Oh my gosh! I am really, really sorry! I meant to update this, and work on it! However, so much happened at once, and, I entirely forgot about it! I am terribly sorry! T_T Please, forgive me? :( Well, I know this is really short! But, I needed to jump start it again! Publishing something will allow me to get into it once more! I hope I didn't lose any of your interest by not updating for months! :(

"Uh, can I ask you a question?" Abel asked, looking with curious eyes at Kaname.
Kaname gave him a glance that acknowledged his question. He gave neither a yes nor a no in response. However, the light hit his eyes in a way that spoke. His eyes were seeming to say, 'humor me'.
"If I am remembering right, your name is Kaname. Well, Kaname, do you believe in the existence of vampires?"
Kaname looked at the silly man who suddenly got serious. Abel was staring very hard at Kaname, but his face did not change. He watched him with careful eyes as Abel tried to express how serious his question was.
"Well, what do you think, Kaname?" Chairman asked, suddenly getting serious as well.
"It is an interesting question. I didn't think I'd see the day that someone asked me a question of a fable. Of a myth. Vampires, of course, have no existence. They are only legends that live in tales. Though, if you are adamant about it, you could convince yourself almost anyone is a vampire," Kaname answered, his eyes never leaving Abel's once.
Abel stood straighter at this answer. Esther did not think a thing of the answer, but Abel knew better. He had seen his fangs, and he knew far too well the existence of them. For the young man to lie to his face was appalling, but he didn't want to frighten his friends. He let it slide, but not without giving Kaname a doubtful look.
"I see," Abel responded.
"Ignorant, isn't he?" Leon whispered under his breath to Wordsworth.
Wordsworth nodded his agreement, but made no sound. Tres was watching Kaname now, but he seemed to be unpleased. Esther noticed, and looked at Wordsworth for an answer.
"Tres, isn't a very trusting person of strangers, you know that. However, it seems he trusts this man even less," Wordsworth explained quietly.
Esther nodded her silent agreement and let her eyes wander back to the young man. She watched him carefully, but couldn't help but notice how handsome he looked. She found it unusual, especially since the room was dimly lit.
"Chairman, what do you expect them to do now?" Kaname spoke suddenly, giving no warning of his question.
"Hmm… Go tell the night class that there are going to be people joining you. I'd put them in day class, but for now, night class will do. I expect that they will be very pleased with night class, Kaname," Chairman answered, his tone indicating a warning towards the man.
"Very well, I'll be right back. When I arrive once more, I expect to find them ready to follow me to class."
Abel watched as Kaname left, not taking his eyes off of him until the door separated the two. Once Kaname was out of the room, Abel decided to take advantage of it.
"Chairman, right?" he spoke quietly, in a shy tone.
"Yes?"
"What do you think of vampires?"
Chairman looked at Abel carefully, and he appeared to be thinking. Chairman knew that Kaname had denied the existence of vampires, and he should do the same, but he was having doubts. "As Kaname said, they are not real. A fable is all they are! Or scary stories to tell at night."
Abel smiled at his answer, seeing that he was having a difficult time thinking of exactly what to answer with. Kaname came in suddenly, and he did not look happy.
Well, that's all for now! This time, I'm going to make a really long chapter next time to make up for it! I'll try to get it out in at most a couple of days! If not, find some way to shoot me a message and go: Hey! What are you doing!?
Until next time!
