Romancing the Vampire Princess
Chapter 3
"Melancholy Hill." Yuuki repeated in a quiet voice while looking around amazed by what she saw in this place Zero revealed to her. As Yuuki walked towards the lake she noticed how the fish were just swimming around carelessly as if they all had somewhere to be without being in a rush to get there.
As Zero watched her, he was standing next to White Lily petting and rubbing her head gently as he spoke to her "Thank you Lily." When Zero said this, Lily nodded her head once and noticed how her master looked at the girl that was laughing and smiling by the lake as she watched the fish.
When Zero turned back around as if pretending not to care, Lily looked at him and pushed him a little. Even though she didn't really like the girl she could tell her master did and she wanted him to go over to her.
Zero looked at Lily wondering why she pushed him but turned back to Yuuki when he heard something lightly hit the water, when he looked he just saw Yuuki picking a beautiful red water lily out of the water while smiling a little, hypnotized by its bright beauty.
When Lily noticed how he was looking at her again, she pushed him again this time with a little more strength making him go a little bit farther and made a noise when Zero looked at her with a puzzled look again.
As soon as Zero looked Lily in the eyes he knew what she wanted him to do now and he nodded his head as she sat in the grass to rest when he began walking towards Yuuki.
As Yuuki smelled the water lily she caught the sweet scent of the beautiful flower and smiled as she turned around to meet Zero's gaze when she felt his presence behind her.
When their eyes met, Yuuki couldn't help but to stared into those beautiful stoic pale amethyst orbs. It had been like that since they were young, sometime Yuuki would just stare at Zero and she always fought the urge to run her figures through his silvery white hair. Remembering this made her mind start reminiscing the time when they were younger.
~*:*:*:*~
"Yuuki….what are you doing?" Zero said as he noticed how Yuuki stared at him while they were laying on the couch in their separate corners.
"Hn….oh, nothing Zero…" Yuuki said as she looked away blushing a little. When Zero saw this, he couldn't help but to think how cute she looked when she blushed in a shy manner like that. Yuuki wanted to get closer to Zero because she felt a little cold but she couldn't because she thought he wouldn't allow it.
The chairman was out in town with a friend all day today and they were alone in the house together. Of course the chairman trusted them enough to do that, especially since Zero wasn't the type of boy that would do anything to hurt Yuuki.
Suddenly, Zero got up and sat closer to Yuuki and wrapped an arm around her as he looked away with a little red tingeing his pale cheeks. Yuuki was surprised but she didn't complain.
"Ah Zero…" Yuuki was about to ask before Zero interrupted.
"I saw you shivering….so I just…got closer to try and warm you up…." He said as he blushed while looking off to the side.
With that said Yuuki began blushing a little and quickly kissed his cheek and said to him in a soft and shy voice "Thank you…Zero."
"No problem" he choked out then after all that it was silent and kind of awkward between them.
Yuuki was starting to feel warmer as she remained a little lost in her thoughts about Zero and before she realized it her fingers were already twirling and dancing in his soft silvery white locks.
Zero was curious as to why she was playing with his hair and looked down at her then her hand accidentally rubbed against his cheek, when Yuuki felt the soft warm skin she snapped back into reality and her soft light brown eyes met with pale amethyst ones as they stared at each other for a while until they both looked away from each other blushing.
"A-ah I'm s-sorry..I didn't mean to…" Yuuki said still blushing in an innocent voice.
"It's ok…" Zero said while blushing still as well.
It was already 10:30PM and the chairman wasn't home yet so Yuuki cooked some macaroni and cheese with so hot chocolate for them to eat and a little after they finished eating and washed the dishes they went to go take their baths and got ready for bed.
When Yuuki went into Zero's room she just saw him sitting there in the dark watching the snow fall silently outside through the window. Yuuki didn't want to bother him so she just started backing away from the door and started heading towards her room when his voice stopped her "You know, if you're cold, you could come in here and sit next to me again…if you want to Yuuki…"
Yuuki blushed but started walking towards him and climbed onto the bed, sat down next to him and just stared at him as he looked at her and ran his fingers through her hair and watched as the light brown strands fell through his fingers.
When Zero went back to looking out the window Yuuki leaned on him and put her head on his shoulders and 40 minutes later fell asleep while watching the snow fall with Zero. He knew she was asleep now and was looking at their reflection as the snow fell in the background.
When Zero started to feel tired he just simply lifted Yuuki up a little bit and laid down then carefully placed Yuuki on his chest to lay down.
Yuuki felt the movements and then just heard a heartbeat now. When she shifted a little to make herself more comfortable and opened her eyes enough to see Zero looking at her while they were both laying down she heard his heart beat a little faster and skip a few beats as he blushed and this made her giggle a little as they both fell asleep.
~*:*:*:*~
When Zero looked at her this time paying more attention to her, he could tell she wasn't there but was lost in her thoughts again and wondered what she's thinking about.
"Yuuki…" Zero said with his usual stoic voice as he looked at the flower she held.
"Huh?…Oh I'm sorry Zero…I zoned out a little." She said in an almost distant voice as she smiled at the memories she reminisced on before being brought back to reality.
"Hn" was all Zero said as he sat down on the soft green grass and just laid down looking at the sky and the butterflies that floated gracefully around them.
Suddenly she laid down beside him and just looked at the clouds go by as she began to doze off a little, then she said to Zero in a soft voice "Thank you Zero."
"For what?" he asked.
"For showing me this beautiful place, and for spending some time with me." She said in content and a relaxed tone.
"Hn…" He said as he started to doze off slowly.
~*:*:*:*~
"I'm coming for you Kaname and I hope you're ready to let me play with your adorable little sister." The mysterious voice said as Kaname looked out his window with a serious face.
"Kaname-sama" Hanabusa stepped into his room door with a serious expression to report something to him, then continued "my father told me that man is back and he might try to come after you…"
"I know…I'll have to awaken Yuuki tomorrow night…" he said in a serious and disappointed tone.
Hanabusa nodded his head in understanding what Kaname meant.
