Flashback

Kaien was preparing dinner when he heard something crash to the ground. Thinking that Zero that broke something and was going to try and pick up shards of whatever had broke, Kaien ran into the living room only to find Zero curled up in a ball, next to a broken vase, and was having a coughing fit.

"Zero-chan!"Kaien cried and ran over to small silverette.

Bending down by the small boy, Kaien froze when he saw a flash of red appear in Zero's eyes but it disappeared as he whimpered in pain. Feeling his forehead quickly, the dirty blonde found that Zero had a high fever. Picking him up, Kaien rushed him up stairs and put him to bed before running into the bathroom, grabbed a rag and a bowl of water and went back into Zero's room where he put the wet rag on Zero's forehead. Hours passed and nothing changed in Zero's condition. Kaien was starting to think that Zero's body was finally evolving into Level E or his Hunter Blood was fighting his Pure Blood for dominance.

'I should call Kaname-kun. He'll properly know what to do.'Kaien thought as he looked down at the silverette, saddened by the fact that he could do anything to help him.

However, when Kaname came over with a bottle pills and told Kaien that it was filled with medicine which would keep everything at bay, Kaien had asked how Kaname knew it would work and Kaname's reply was that he had seen this happen to Zero back when the Hooded Women was alive and he was just known as Kaname, the Ancestor.

"So Zero-chan had caught a Vampire Disease that made his thirst for blood unbearable back then because his own cells were being destroyed and he has it again?"

"Yes. I suppose you could call it Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia since no other Vampire has it in centuries. The only way it to be destroyed is for me to turn him back into a Pureblood but I can't. Rido is still out there."Kaname said, eyes flashing blood red."But for now, these should help. Not only are they made from special herbs but my blood has been added to it so that his blood doesn't destroy him from the inside out."

End Of Flashback

"Zero..."Zero looked back at Kaname who stared back at him."You haven't been taking your medicine, have you?"Zero's eyes widened in surprise while everyone else, Ichiru included, looked confused and shocked."Come. I have some in my room that you can take."Kaname stood up and offered his hand to Zero who stared dumbfounded up at him before snapping out of it and took the hand, letting Kaname pull him up and take him away from the party.

"Kaname-sempai, y-you know that I-I..."Zero spluttered as he let Kaname guide him up the stairs.

Kaname looked over his shoulder at Zero with sad smile."Headmaster Cross didn't tell you, did he? I'm the one that's been supplying you with your medicine, Zero."

Once they were in Kaname's room, the Pureblood told the silverette to sit down on the love seat, which he did and looked around, noticing a desk and stacks of paper on said desk, a tidy bed that looked like it hadn't been used in a long time, while Kaname went to go grab Zero's medicine.

'Huh... Does Kaname-sempai sleep on his bed at all?'Zero wondered, looking at the bed before looking back at where Kaname had disappeared to, to what Zero could only assume was the bathroom, when the door opened and Kaname stepped out with a needle in his hand.

"I'm sorry but I had only just finished mixing the herbs together the other night and I don't have the time to make them into a pill. So I'll have to inject it into your arm, Zero."

Zero just smiled."T-that's alright Kaname-sempai! You seem really busy and I'm not scared of a needle!"Kaname smiled back as he sat down next to the silverette and gently rolled up his sleeve, revealing the snowy-white skin.

"I'm glad to hear that Zero."Kaname said softly as he took hold of Zero's wrist in a firm but gentle grip and he gently injected the needle into the vein.

The silverette couldn't help but watch Kaname's eyes(he wasn't sure if it was out of fear or not) looking for any hints of seeing them change to blood red but found none. Kaname then pulled the needle out when the substance was all gone, leaving only a small dot/hole in Zero's skin which filled with blood. Kaname stared at the blood for a moment before wiping away the blood with a tissue and then put a plaster over it.

"Uh um, thank you, Kaname-sempai. I feel much better now!"And it was true, Zero did feel better, his throat was no longer dry and his stomach wasn't in pain.

"Good."Kaname said and the next thing Zero knew, Kaname was hugging him to his chest while running his hand through Zero's hair.

"Ka-Kaname-sempai!"Zero put his hands on Kaname's chest but didn't push him away.

"Zero, promise me that you won't forget to take your medicine, promise me."Kaname whispered as he tightened his grip on the smaller teen.

"I... I promise, I've just been distracted, that's why I forgot."Zero stuttered out.

"I see... does it have anything to do with your brother?"The amethyst eyed teen didn't reply but that was just what Kaname needed as an answer."Please don't just worry about him all the time Zero. You need to look after yourself as well."Kaname said in a light scolding tone and Zero nodded in understanding.

It's short, I know but I can't really update at the moment, I did something wrong to my elbow. It won't bend straight and when I try, it causes pain but at least it isn't as bad as it was a few days ago, I couldn't even write back then, lol, but it still hurts so this is as much as I could do right now, sorry guys/girls. I'm pretty sure I twisted it somehow. Anyhow, I hope you like this small chapter~!
