Alrighty, next chapter up and running! Review a bit more and I might update faster, ya her? Good good. Anyways, moving on. Let's see what the boys think, hmm?

ZERO POV:

I think it was fair to say she was beautiful. Not beautiful as is in a vampire's twisted beauty, but beautiful in a 'trying too hard not to be' kind of way. Her strong jaw and messy but cute brown hair reminded me of someone.... Though at the moment, I could not remember who. And those green eyes... They seemed to pierce my very soul. I thought about it the entire way back to the academy, but came up with nothing but painful memories of my past life. Not that it mattered. It's not as if I didn't repulse her, like most humans. With the exception of Yuki, and some extremely naive students. But she seemed unusually keen to my undead, bloodsucking nature. For instance, she tripped and fell, and I had to keep myself from smirking at her inability to conceal her repulsion towards my catching her and breaking her uncaring composure. But then, when we left her behind, I felt almost alone. As much as I love my Yuki, this girl... Bryn Ari... She was almost a kindred spirit. She seemed as repulsed by vampires as I, and also seemed to close herself off from the world, like she was avoiding seeing something that would remind her of her past. So of course, I was very surprised when, while scouting the campus after curfew, I saw her walking with the vice-president of the Night Class. He seems to be completely comfortable with her, and I'm almost positive he plans to eat her. I will follow them inconspicuously, until he gives me a fool-proof reason to doubt his oath to not drink the blood of students.

HANABUSA POV:

Okay, well, it's safe to say I've seen prettier than the human girl who decided to literally drop in on me while I was taking my evening stroll. So I have no idea what drove me to take her up to my room in an attempt seduce her, which resulted in such a catastrophe that I could not help but wish I wasn't so impulsive. So maybe Cain is always right. No matter, as soon as I find out where I am, I believe it will be possible for me to find the girl, apologize, and hope that Kaname-sama doesn't punish me too severely. Unless this is his punishment. Which maybe be a bit extreme. No matter what one has done, no one deserves such complete isolation... And darkness... And the muffled thoughts of the girl who had slapped me... What has happened?!

ICHIJO POV:

She was perfect. The most beautiful vampire I had ever seen, and even then some. Bryn Ari... The name of God's most perfect creation. She was quiet and thoughtful and so artistically enhanced that she astounded me. Her interests, which I was learning more and more of as our conversation progressed, made it seem as if she were staring into my very being. If there was in fact a God, I thanked him mentally. I took her to the fountain of Cross Academy, in the main courtyard. The sun had long since set, and the Day Class were in their dorms. As our conversation continued, she seemed to unwind. She smiled more and more often, her hard expression of monotony softened into one of interest. She told me of her paintings, and in turn I told her of mine. She told me of her favorite music... And I decided to share one of my very favorites, which only increased my belief that this meeting was more than coincidence. It was fate. I took her hand in mine, and bowed. Then, as gracefully as I could, took her in my arms and began to waltz. I heard a gasp, and, daring to look down, saw her staring at me with wide eyes. I tried to smile.

"Are we... Dancing?" She asked timidly. I could not tear my gaze from hers, nor did I want to. I grinned.

"Yes, we are. Can't you hear the music?" I said in nothing more than a whisper. My lips were close enough to her ear that they touched. She shivered, though from delight or disgust I could not tell.

"No... What song is it?" She asked, still acting very shy. If it were possible, my grin grew. She blushed. I began to hum along, and as I did so, the music took to our ears. My steps became more fluent as to keep to the beat. Thank you, Cain. I said silently.

Ion displacement
Won't work in the basement
Especially when I'm not with you

She gasped again, a small intake of breath that touched me at my core. I wanted her to love me, right then, as I knew I did her. I moved my eyes from hers, down to her full, kissable lips, and watch them frown as she concentrated on keeping my pace. Though I was sure she had no experience (she had made it very clear sports were not her strong suite) she kept the rhythm and her balance very well.

Here in the heartland
A feeling so startling
I don't know what I should do

I chuckled, and her blush deepened.

"I've never done this before, okay?" She murmured, averting her bright green eyes from my own.

Oh Bryn, you see through the dark
Right past the fireflies that sleep in my heart
You know its easy to see
Wait for the season to come back to me

"I couldn't tell." I said, all too serious. She looked back, a timid smile forming. She knew I meant it.

Nights by the ocean
A westerly motion
That moves California to sea

"So... How'd you get them to put my name in there? I mean, this isn't a real song with my weird name in it." She said, trying to make it a joke. But again, I was completely serious. And I wanted her to know it.

Eyes like a seagull
No kansas palm beetle
Could ever come close to that free

"My dear, this is no laughing matter. This song was written for you, I am sure. Though the artist may not have known it. And you have the most beautiful name I have ever heard, so it is no surprise it was included in such a beautiful song." I said, trying to be gentle but firm. I think I may have succeeded, because a look of seriousness was adopted by her by her face as well, and her eyes that of revelation.

Oh Bryn, you see through the dark
Right past the fireflies that sleep in my heart
You know its easy to see

"No one... Has ever called my name beautiful..." She said, and the smell of salty water wafted into my senses. I looked down, completely startled to see the girl I was sure I loved crying in my arms. I winced, trying to think of a way I might have insulted her. I lost myself in thought, and therefore was not prepared for what came next.

Wait for the season to come back to me.

And suddenly I am on top of her, her teary eyes staring deep into mine, my apologies coming out slurred, my lungs seeming like they cannot get enough air. I lose myself then, entranced by her beauty and scent and the essence of her body pressed to mine. My face goes closer to hers without instruction, her blood tempting me in ways I did not think possible. I suddenly want her neck almost as much as her lips, and I feel my hand fumbling for my pills packet. But before I can grasp either her neck or her lips with my teeth, someone with a familiar but hostile scent interferes. And it's as if the spell is broken. And I can hear the prefect Zero Kiryu yelling at me to get up, to get off, to leave. And the girl, the beautiful Bryn, scurries to her feet, her face warm and red and pulsing with blood. Human blood, I now realize. And then I realize what Kiryu-kun must think. And what Kaname-senpai will say. But still, I don't care. Because the spell hasn't worn away just yet. And I can almost taste the lips that would have been mine, had Kiryu-kun let me be for just a moment longer. And then I am shocked. Because I still don't know which I was going for. The blood, or the love.

Kinda short, but that song is entitled Bryn, and was written and composed by Vampire Weekend, so I make no claim. Hope you enjoyed. And please review, it makes me happy! (And if you don't get why the boy's POV's went from past to present tense, it was because we were catching up with the characters and getting their immediate thoughts, not their reflections. Get it? Haha =])
