Unforgivable
( Zero x Yuuki )
prompt : galaxy
Disclaimer: I do not own Zero, Yuuki, absolutely nothing of Vampire Knight. These words, however, are mine.
"You know what I wish, Zero?" Yuuki whispered softly, breaking the peaceful silence that had elapsed between them for more than an hour; it was easy, she realized, to just sit here with him... Alone with their thoughts mingling.
"What?" He grunted noncommittally, coughing a bit to clear his throat. His eyes never once left the starry sky, glittering and tempting with its secrets and wonder.
She smiled gently, looking down at him. He was laying on his back on the roof of the school with her, completely relaxed; she loved to see him like this... It wasn't very often that he wasn't battling personal demons, walking around stiff and uncaring... Here he was safe from prying eyes, safe to let down his guard.
Her heart warmed with the thought that he trusted her enough to let her see him like this.
"Sometimes I wish we were somewhere else... Far away, in a distant galaxy, without a care in the world, nothing hanging over us, no worries..." She sighed wistfully. "I can only imagine, you know?"
"I know." He replied quietly, his eyes drifting closed. "But this as close as we'll ever get."
"Maybe..." She pursed her lips, letting her eyes wander back up to the darkness. "Maybe not, though."
He didn't answer to that; he didn't need to.
She knew he hoped, just as much as she did.
