Ch. 4
The two weeks go by quickly in an almost sleepless blur. I almost had no time to go into town to get a costume, but the headmaster allowed me to do so. I got a kitty costume. It is a long sleeve short pink dress with black polka dots. It had fake black fur near the hands and at the bottom. It also comes with a hood that is brimmed with fake black fur and has kitty ears at the top, with a black tail near my bum. I also bought a pair of really cute black flats. I was going to buy black high heels, but then I remembered about my guardian duties.
It's finally time to go to the Halloween party! I put on my kitty hood, slip on my flats, reapply pink lip gloss, and start walking out of my room to go to Zero's. As I walk down the halls, some of the guys whistle at me. When I arrive outside of Zero's dorm room, I knock on the door. I wonder if he is going to dress up this time, or just go in his school uniform like he usually does.
Zero opens the door; he looks shocked to see me in this particular costume for some reason. He shakes his head to recompose himself. "Yuuki, you look... really good," he compliments me.
I can feel myself starting to blush. I giggle at him. "Why thank you Zero, you are looking pretty good tonight too," I take in what he is wearing. He is wearing a black leather jacket over top of his black shirt, his really dark almost black jeans, and his blue skate shoes. "What are you supposed to be anyways?" I ask him, confused at what he could possibly be.
He smiles, flashing his obviously fake fangs. "I'm a vampire," he replies.
I giggle some more. Even though Zero hates vampires with passion, this shows that he can joke around about it a little bit. "Well Zero, you are a pretty sexy vampire," I playfully wink at him. I mean what I said, he is a sexy vampire, but I know that he probably just thinks that I am just joking around.
He smiles, showing his fake fangs again. "Thanks Yuuki, but you can stop staring now," he chuckles.
I blush, and look away. I hadn't noticed that I was actually staring at him. "Sorry, umm, let's go to the party now," I suggest.
As we walk into the building that hosts the parties that we have, I notice that all of our hard work has paid off. There are plenty of small circular tables with red and white table cloths, in an area for people to sit at. There are lights and ribbons dangling from the ceiling, and a disco ball over the dance floor. There are random places where there are fake zombies, skulls, and blood. In one of the corners, there is a table full of refreshments and finger foods.
I look at the dance floor, seeing that many students are already dancing. There's a loud fast paced song playing. "Come on zero, let's dance!" I suggest, shouting at him so he can hear me over the music.
"I'm not really the dancing type," he tells me. I take his hand, and drag him onto the dance floor anyways.
A slow song comes on right after the fast one. Zero hesitantly wraps his arms around my waist, as I wrap mine behind his neck. Our eyes lock as we sway back and forth. Zero's gaze is just so, intense.
The song ends. We stand still, still in our dancing position. We break apart when we hear girls yelling at each other, it's coming from near the refreshment table. "There's no need to worry ladies, there's enough Idol for everyone," we hear Aido saying, using his nickname that the fan girls have given him.
We finally come into view of it all. We see a shirtless spray tanned Hanabusa Aido in board shorts, and two girls in witches' costumes looking mad at each other. Just as we get there, we see the blonde witch pushing the brunette into the refreshment table.
There's a crash and a whimper. I see every Night class students' head snap up towards us. Their eyes are slowly turning crimson. The girl must be bleeding. I look around for Zero to see if he is alright, but I can't see him, he's gone. I rush to the brunette's side to help her. She's bleeding pretty badly, and she's soaked by the punch that she fell into. I grab some napkins from the table, and start cleaning up the blood.
"Alright everyone, the Disciplinary Committee has this handled. Let's get back to the party," Kaname says, calming down the Night Class students. I recognize his voice but I have to look at him twice to see if it's really him. He's covered in black, head to toe, in a ninja costume.
"Thank you," the brunette witch light headedly thanks me.
"Let's get you to the infirmary," I tell her, helping her off of the ground.
After I tell the headmaster and the nurse about what had happened, I go back to the party. I don't want to go back to the party; I want to go see Zero. But because I am on the Disciplinary/Guardian Committee, I have to go back. I need to go back because another accident could happen, and with all of those Night Class students there, I must be there as well.
The rest of the night at the party is uneventful. Nothing else happened to get the Night Class rallied up. Aido did ask me to dance; just to make the Day Class students jealous, but I declined his offer. Not like that will make the fan girls stop hating me.
After the party, I start walking back to my dorm room. I think about how the Night Class had reacted to smelling that girl's blood. I should probably go check on Zero. He will probably need to drink my blood again; it has been a couple weeks again since he has had any.
I start walking in the direction of Zero's room. I hear something rustling in the bushes. I reach for my Artemis rod, a weapon to fend off vampires, but I realize that I left it in my room, having nowhere to put it in with my costume on.
The bushes move again. "Who's there? Show yourself!" I challenge, sounding a lot more confident than I really am.
