Author's Note: Hello there! Thank you for the amazing reviews I appreciate it :D I hope you enjoy this chapter.


Kaien Cross stare at Bloody Rose on the table with serious expressions on his face, he turned his gaze towards Yuuki and the other members of the night class "You said you found this on the ground without anything else?"

They nodded and Takuma Ichijo said in a worried tone "We also found some traces that told us they were fighting each other in that place" he smiled sheepishly "Although there isn't any clue that Kaname had used his powers at all"

Cross nodded "I see .. What about Kaname's aura?"

Aido retorted hastily "Kaname-sama always suppress his aura so we don't know when exactly they had disappeared!"

Cross smiled gently at Yuuki "Don't worry sweetheart they are two capable of taking care of themselves, this group will help you in the guardian duty till Zero return safely"


Something annoying was clinging around his body, a light frown appeared on his sleeping features. He tried to turn to the other side in his sleep, however, something weird he wasn't accustomed to was preventing him from doing so, the Thing suddenly tightened its hold around him, all the sleep he was feeling had gone when he became aware on what's around him, his mind starts working and gathering every possibilities ..

He remembers everything happened before he closes his eyes, he was sleeping with the nuisance called Kiryu on the same bed .. Oh god ! As if that wasn't bad enough!

He left that for later and concentrate on the matter at hand ..

He was being held by something ..

And not a loose hold at that ..

He held his breaths ..

Could it be that someone had found them and captured them ?!

Could it be Kiryu had set him up or something ?!

He opened his eyes wide in alarm at these thoughts ..

Shit !

He groaned and rubbed his temples in attempt to suppress the headache he was feeling, it's all Kiryu's fault he had woke up at this early hour. They had slept only an hour or so before the morning last night, and now ..

He stared in annoyance at the sleeping figure next to him, or to be exacts, Half on top of him. The idiot boy's arms were wrapped tightly around his waist, his face was buried in his chest and he couldn't see anything other than the other's unmistakeable silver hair, he tried to free himself from the tight grip but the other's thigh on his own thighs was keeping him in place.

Damn you Kiryu!

What a messed up position they were in, he put his hand slowly on the other's thigh and tried to move it away, hell as if he doesn't have more important things that bothers him!

He grimaced when he heard low whimpers escaping the other's lips before he tightened his hold around him and buried his face deeper in his chest. Sighing in defeat he moved his hand from the other's thigh and rested it on his hips instead, what's wrong with this idiot anyway? Doesn't he know who he is?!

He never thought Kiryu would be from the cuddling type, at least he should noticed he wasn't cuddling a small and fragile body like Yuuki's!

If he was stuck at the bed with this idiot then he might get more sleep, the headache he was feeling annoys him to no end! He moved his head away as far as he could from the soft silver locks under his chin and covered his eyes with his arm. This boy is a disaster, if he stayed here any longer he will be doomed.

It would be much easier if there wasn't a mutual hatred between them, but in their state .. They might end up killing each other. The hatred isn't easily forgotten, and between them, there isn't a slight chance to be forgotten at all. He wasn't the only one who hates the other, Kiryu also hates him deeply, maybe more than he himself hates him if it was possible.

Kiryu might hates him because being a vampire, a pureblood, and maybe .. Because of Yuuki.

In the other hand, he hates Kiryu for being Yuuki's brother while he couldn't, he hates him for having a family he doesn't have. Even if Kiryu had lost his real family, but at least .. He still have this warm moments and yet, he refuse to be thankful for it.

Oh yes .. He really does hate him.


Zero nuzzled his face sleeply on the comfy pillow he was burying his face in, the pillow was really comfortable and warm but why it was harder than the normal pillows?

And what was he holding into..?

Another pillow..?

His eyes flattered open when he sensed a movement above his head, he stare with sleepy eyes at the half open buttons of the white shirt in front of him .. Wait what buttons?! White shirt?!

His eyes travelled downward with horror, the waist he was holding, the other's hand that rested comfortably on his hips, his own thigh on the other's.

He swallowed the lump in his throat and tried to calm himself, this isn't happening .. It's just a dream .. This is not Kuran he was holding at the moment .. Is he ..?

When he sensed another movement he pushed the brunette's hand from his hips roughly and jumped back on the bed, he glared hatefuly at Kuran with reddened cheeks "You pervert! What are you doing on my side of the bed?!"

Kuran returned the glare with a cold one before he pushed himself up to a sitting position, he hissed "You dare to call me that after preventing me from moving for how long?! Two hours maybe?!"

What did he say..?!

Zero kept glaring at the other, even if he was at fault it wasn't completely his own!

He snarled "You should have woke me up! Killing me even! You know how much I hate you!"

He flinched slightly and retreated backwards till he touched the wall behind him when he saw the expression on Kuran's face, it was terrifying to say the least. Even in Cross Academy Kuran never showed such anger!

Nevertheless Kuran managed to say in a cold dangerous tone "You have no idea how much I hate you as well, I don't want to return to Cross Academy as much as I want to rip you into pieces right now"

He stare wide-eyed at Kuran who stood and gave him one last glare "Don't push me to do things we two might regret Kiryu, it's already hard on both of us"

He blinked when he realised the other had disappeared behind the bathroom door, what's wrong with that arrogant to snap at him like that?! He crossed his legs and rested his cheek on his palm, at least he knew something, that bastard isn't a morning person at all!


When Kuran went out of the bathroom moments later Zero was still on his previous sitting position on the bed, unconsciously his eyes never left the other who went to the phone while the water still dripping from his face and the collar of his white shirt was slightly wet. He smiled wryly, never in his life he thought he will have the Pleasure in seeing this pureblood bastard in such a state, his slightly crumpled shirt from the sleep, walking barefoot here and there and his slightly messy hair, well just as much as his soft hair could be messy!

He snorted when he heard the other talking to the owner on the phone, the spoiled prince wants someone to buy them a necessary stuff right now, why don't they buy it themselves?!

"Thank you, I'll be waiting"

Zero kept his violet eyes on the other's back even after he hanged up the phone, he blinked when Kuran turned around suddenly and meets his gaze "To whom I own the pleasure in having your precious attention?"

Zero rolled his eyes "You are the only moving figure here I just watched out of boredom"

Kuran leaned on the wall behind him and his face still blank "So you are as worthless as the bed you currently sitting on"

Zero hissed "If you think the bed is worthless you should have slept on the couch!"

An amusement smirk appeared on Kuran's face "tsk tsk Kiryu, don't you just yell on everything around you"

Zero clutched his hands to fist, he Was in a good mood and that bastard has destroyed it! Well that wasn't something new at all, the bastard always managed to ruin his mood.

He averted his eyes away from the other and nibbled the inside of his cheek and tried as best as he could to prevent himself from punching that arrogant's perfect face, he won't let him be satisfied in making him losing control.

He said after a moment of silent "What the spoiled prince wants to buy anyway? You know we can buy everything we want by ourselves"

He watched Kuran taking an empty paper from the note on the desk and starts writing on it "There's no soap no shampoo no towels and no teethbrush, I won't wander in the streets like this"

A sideways smirk appeared on Zero's face "You don't have a problem in wandering in this crumpled clothes?"

Kuran put his hand under his chin and tapped the pin gently on his cheek, he said thoughtfully "As long as it was clean I won't mind"

Zero hummed in response and watched the other handing the small paper to the boy in front of the door, he frowned when he noticed that they had actually said some words to each other without yelling at one other.

When the other has closed the door the words left his mouth before he knew it "I still hate you you know"

He watched Kuran laying on the couch with a tired sigh "Yeah me too"

He sighed as well before he lied back on the bed, this will be a long day!


Zero walked beside Kuran and kept focus as to not lose him in this crowded street. He murmured mindlessly to himself "Do we really have to buy new clothes? I don't want to.."

He jerked his head up when he heard Kuran saying sarcastically "Then don't, if you want to get rotten in your cloth of course"

He put his hands into his pockets and scowled "I wasn't talking to you!"

Kuran gave him a sideway glance "Why didn't you take a shower?"

Gripping his shirt in his hand he frowned and smelt it "It's not like my smell is bad"

Kuran smirked "Sure you were clinging to me while you were sleeping, that's why your scent is still pleasant. Because of me"

Zero closed his eyes and said sarcastically "I think I heard that line before, Oh I forgot I owed you my life"

Kuran raised a perfect eyebrow "Owed? You treat that like a past life I see"

He glared at the bastard next to him with eyes full of hate, somehow he wanted to forget everything happened in Cross academy, he wanted to forget that he is no longer human, he wanted to forget what he truly is, a low level vampire without his choice, closing slowly to his inevitable end. He wanted to forget all that and throw it behind his back for at least a little while, but this arrogant in front of him won't let him have a little peace at all! Hell even if he wasn't a pureblood he still a hateful jerk!

Kuran smirked "That's better, I missed this hateful glare"

He clenched his hands "Bastard!"


Kaname was ignoring the frustrated boy next to him who gritted his teeth "I have took enough, stop wasting the money we might need it!"

He put the deep green shirt in his hand next to the other's body, he kept staring for a moment and looked thoughtful, this boy's silver hair and pale skin really gives him a unique and beautiful appearance, he won't deny he enjoys choosing what this nuisance boy will wear, the best thing is he have no choice but to wear them. He smirked "This colour suit you as well, take it"

Kiryu huffed in annoyance and the frown deepened on his pale face when Kaname put the shirt on the others between his hands "Blue red violet yellow green and others I don't know it's names! What next .. Pink?!"

Kaname walked to the other corner of the shop "As much as I want you to stuck in it forever, but alas you will be in front of my eyes most of the time, I hate that colour it shouldn't be called a colour in the first place it's gross"

He heard Kiryu whimpering behind him, he took a tight black jeans and another skinny dark blue one "This should be your size.." He was about to put them with the others when Kiryu yelled suddenly "What the hell Kuran?! I'm not wearing these things I won't be able to move take a another ones!"

Kaname pursued his lips "It well be perfect on your body.." His eyes travelled slowly on the other's body starting from his slim long legs till it's rested on his glaring lavender eyes, he smirked "believe me"

Kiryu took a step back and yelled "No!"

Kaname sighed "Kiryu.."

Kiryu cut him off "No I'm not gonna wear them! Why don't you take them yourself if you liked them that much?!"

Kaname felt disappointed, he returned them to their place "My body isn't like yours, fine let's get you another ones"

When they finely walked out of the shop, Kaname stare at the bags he was carrying in his hand, a small smile tugged on his lips when he remembered the jeans he took for Kiryu without his knowledge, he will make that annoying spoiled brat to wear them .. Somehow.
