Chapter 13:

The chapter title contest is still going.

It was a few days since Ashlen and Aido came back from her eyes. They luckily gotten back without being caught coming in thong Aido was given detention since he never came back to the Moon Dorms the night before. To Ashlen's relief, Aido didn;t tell Kaname or Headmaster where he really was; he knew Ashlen would get into a lot of trouble too.

Right now Ashlen was in the library again though this time it wasn't for homework; this time she was there just to read. So Ashlen was sitting in a soft arm chair, reading a cool mystery book. The cool thing about this book was that it was monster children that solved the mystery's.

"Oh, hello." A sudden voice in front of Ashlen startled her. She looked up to see one of the Night Class vampires, Takuma Ichijo.

"Hello." Ashlen greeted back in her shy, quiet toned voice. Ichijo smiled friendly at her.

"If you don't mind my asking; are you Ashlen Baker?" The vampire asked, surprising the girl since she wasn't sure how he knew. Ichijo saw her shocked expression and he grinned softly. "Aido's spoken of you." He said with a small chuckle and sat beside her.

"Oh, he has?" Ashlen asked, raising an eyebrow as she wondered what Aido could have talked about.

"Yes, actually almost everyone knows about the Day Class girl that Aido is tutoring; that is you; isn't it?" Ichijo asked as he gave Ashlen a sweet smile.

"Um, OK, but what has Aido exactly said about me?" Ashlen asked with a small frown; worried what Aido had said about her. Ichijo's smile grew a little as a soft chuckle was heard from his throat.

"Only that you were really smart and fun to tease." The vampire answered with a small grin, waving on of his hand a little as he spoke.

Ashlen let out a deep, relieved, sigh she didn't know she was holding in then blushed since the vampire beside her heard it.

"What, did you think I was going to say Aido told us something bad?" Ichijo asked with a childish smile and chuckle. Ashlen only blushed slightly since that is what she thought. Ichijo chuckled again, leaning back in his chair. "Anyways, what are you doing here this late." The vampire asked, a fist under his chin as he smiled.

"Reading." Ashlen stated the obvious showing him her book for a second.

"Huh, Boogies' Mysteries. I read that book when I was younger. It's really good but I didn't think you'd be the one to like monsters." Ichijo said with a smile and Ashlen looked at him

"Hm? Why not?" Ashlen asks, raising her eyebrow again, hoping he wasn't going to say something stupid and get her mad.

"I don't you. You just don't look like the type." Ichijo said with a shrug.

"What do you mean by that?" Ashlen asked, her tone no longer shy, but a little but dangerous in a 'don't go there way.'

"Um........." Ichijo said, trailing off as he saw her glare. "Never mind." He said, smiling nervously with a sweat drop going down his head. Ashlen smiled, more smirked, slightly as she turned back to her book.

Soon later Ashlen began to yawn tiredly. She bookmarked her page before closing her book so she could yawn.

"If you are getting tired, maybe you should go back to your dorm. You have classes in the morning after all; don't you?" Ichijo asked from beside her and Ashlen jumped slightly since she forgot that the blond vampire boy was there. The vampire saw he scared he and he couldn't hold in a laugh. "Sorry." He apologized between laughs.

Ashlen only rolled her eyes and sighed. "I don't want to go back. I want to finish my book." Ashlen whined slightly before yawning again. Ichijo smirked slightly before he stood up from his chair and grabbed the Mystery book from Ashlen's hands. "Hay!" Ashlen snapped, narrowing her eyes.

The blond vampire ignored Ashlen and walked over to the librarian, handing her the book Ashlen was reading. Since she was tired, and couldn't focus, Ashlen couldn't hear what the blond vampire was saying to the woman but he came back less then a minute later wit the book.

"Here, you can take it too you're room now." Ichijo said as he handed back the book. Ashlen was a little surprised by this vampire's suddenly generosity; he had gotten her permisson to take the book to her room.

"Um, thank you, Ichijo-Sempai." Ashlen said, back into her shy and quiet tone as she blushed softly. Ichijo responded with a sweet smile.

"Wow, Aido was right, you are cute when you blush." He commented under his breath but Ashlen was close enough to him to hear it.

"Huh? What?" Ashlen asked in confusion. This time a small blush came onto Ichijo, embarrassed that he was heard.

"Nothing. Good night, Baker-Chan." Ichijo said, waving slightly before he then left the room.

Ashlen frowned slightly when the vampire was gone. 'What did he mean?' She thought to herself before sighing. 'Might as well not think too hard.' She thought again before leaving the library to go to her room in the Sun Dorms.

Small contest: Hay, I want to have a small contest. I want some random ideas about Rido, Aido or Ashlen that I can use in this story. The first Five people to give me ideas I like will get a prize. They can ether get a Rido or Aido one shot or appear in the story somehow.

I would like some random ideas of Rido/Ashlen flashbacks.
