"WAKEY WAKEY TEDDIE BEAR CHAN!" An annoying voice yelled in my ear. I yelped and fell out of my bed, I stood up frantically looking around "who!what!, wheres the fire" I shrieked.
"um…there's no fire darling, happy birthday" Chairman said happily holding out breakfast. Chocolate chip pancakes with a candle on top. I scratched my head "sorry, you startled me" I said, blushing a deep red.
Chairman laughed and set the tray on the table "for my Teddie bear" he said, holding out a small box. I took it and unwrapped it. "aww daddy, it's pretty" I said. He had gotton me a brooch that was in the shape of a wolf "hurry up and eat, then get ready. Zero and Yukki are waiting downstairs for you
"where's Luke?" I asked confusingly
"he's taking over classes for today, your getting the day off today" he said. He walked out of my room so I quickly ate my pancake, took a quick shower and dressed in a black puffy like skirt,a red strap top, attached the brooch to it and black converses. I tied my hair up in a ponytail and went downstairs. Yukki suddenly bounced round the corner and enveloped me in a tight hug "happy 14th little sis" she cheered happily. I laughed and pulled back "thanks Yukki nee chan" I said smiling. She handed me quite a big box
"me,Zero and Luke chipped in to get this for you" she said. I raised an eyebrow and slowly opened the lid. I brought my hand to my mouth and gasped "oh my…you guys" I whispered as I lifted out a beautiful black guitar that had silver and purple designs on it, I noticed that my name was beautifully engraved at the top of the neck
"it's beautiful" I said. I gave yukki a tight hug and Zero a small peck on the cheek. Was it me or was he blushing?… oh well.
"well you two better get to class" Chairman said sternly. The two teens nodded and left. I smiled at dad and gave him a small peck on the cheek too. "thanks for the brooch, it's really pretty" I said. Kaien smiled and patted my head "you said you loved wolves so when I saw it, I thought of you" he explained. I grinned and ran into the study where I had my music sheets "going for a wander!" I said running out the door.

Teddie made her way to her favorite part of the school. A small sitting area in the forest that she found near the moon dorms. She was sure that the night class students wouldn't mind her playing some music since day class girls were always squealing KYA KYA everyday. She sat herself on the daisy filled grass and played some strings…

I sighed. The paper work I revieve is starting to become very irritating to me. Takuma was sitting on the couch reading his Manga as usual "you know you should take a break Kaname Kun, your just stressing yourself. I stood up and looked out the window
"well I suppose it couldn't hurt Takuma Kun" I said with a smile. A deep red colour suddenly caught my eye. It was Teddie. I smirked, today as Chairman told me was her birthday, I had to remind myself to give her present later. I opened my window to let air in and watched her. The sound of a guitar and her soothing voice reached my ears…
Huhh Ohoo oo I don't understand
This should be so easyTo just reach my hand
And know the world is free
But nothing's, as it seemsI can tell you freely
Touching's not the only way to feel
Her soothing voice started to make me relax a bit more. I lay on my couch and continued to listen to her
Chorus:)
When the rain falls
It's like heaven's crying
When the name's all
The difference that there is
Cause tears are
The same when they are trying to grow something good
Out of all the pain
There's no difference between the teardrops and the rain.I know you proudly say
That I'm just talking crazy
To think of life that way
Means that I'm confusedThere's happy and there's sad
But maybe yes just maybeThe sadness can make the happiness more true
(Chorus:)
When the rain falls
It's like heaven's crying
When the name's all
The difference that there is
Cause tears are
The same when they are trying to grow something good
Out of all the pain
There's no difference between the teardrops and the rain.
I smiled to myself. Her voice was so soothing it's been making me sleepy
"Teddie sure is a good singer isn't she?" Takuma asked. I nodded
"very"

(Teddie)
This guitar is so freaking awesome. I won't kill Yukki for not telling me about the attack now. I started to think on where in the anime we were at, but I kept getting it mixed up so I would have to be patient and wait. "Teddie!" I heard Yukki's voice yell. I turned and collided into her "whoa where's the fire?" I asked
"chairman wants to see you right away, something about another friend of your visiting or something" she said. Another friend? Who in world…hang on! Luke's here because I added him in my story when I met him. But way back before I did it was me and…
"Dawn?" I whispered. I thanked Yukki and ran to the school and burst into the head masters office
"Ahhh Teddie. I see Yukki found you. This girl claims to know you" he said
A girl who looked older than me stood up and faced me. She was wearing worn out jeans and a black T-shirt saying `eyes up here bub!`
Her eyes were a deep purple and she had slightly darker red hair than mine and it reached her waist whereas mine went to mid back…yup she is definitely Dawn
"Dawnie?" I said slowly. She squealed and squished me in a hug "Ted! OMG! I can't believe it's you!" she squealed. I pulled away laughing "hyper as usual I see Dawnster" I said with a smile. We both turned to Kaien "dad this is Dawn, another old friend of mine from America" I explained
Kaien smiled "she told me she came here to help you out with the dance classes" he said. I looked at Dawn who nodded "uh yeah, I forgot to tell you that she was coming…sorry dad" I said blushing
"it's fine. Why don't you two share the bedroom. Teddie you can help her unpack"
I nodded and quickly dragged Dawn away to my room. I slammed the door shut and hugged her "Dawnie! I missed you" I whispered with tears in my eyes
Dawn wiped them away "Ted I'm confused…how and why am I here?" she asked. I sighed as we both sat down. "remember that VK story I wrote?" she nodded "well I wished to live in it which explains why you and Luke are here" I explained
"who's Luke?" she asked
"a friend I made in England, I put him in as a…" I froze. Shit I forgot that I did this!
"As a what Ted?" she asked. I looked at her with a jolt of fear in my stomach
"A level E" I whispered

(night time)
The guilt was still killing me here! How could I make one of my best friends a Level E vampire for Christ's sake! How was I gonna tell him? Or does he know? I was so focused on this I didn't even notice the door open. "ah Kaname kun. What can I do for you?" Kaien asked. I looked over to the pureblood prince and gave him a small smile
"I came to give Teddie her birthday present" he said with a smile. My eyes sorta widened at that "you didn't have to…"
"but I wanted too" he interrupted handing me a silver box. I opened it and smiled at the gift "it's very beautiful" I said. Kaname took out the silver chain and put it round my neck. A musical note and a crescent moon hung off it.
"that's all I came for" he said. He kissed my forehead making me blush "happy birthday Teddie" he said with a smile as he walked out the door leaving a blushing me he he
(Kaname pov)
As I stepped out the door I felt a presence "you know…she won't fall for you like that with your stupid charm" I heard Luke's English accented voice say. I turned to the brown haired boy with a smirk "well…she won't be able to fall for you, because of what you are"
His eyes narrowed "what's that supposed to mean?" he asked. I turned and walked away "what I mean is that…she won't fall for a soon to be Level E vampire" I said, leaving him speechless.
