Chapter 21 Happy Birthday
The next few days Yuki is busy planning the party. With Berta's help. Zero has a little more free time to himself. Which he hasn't had since he got here. She was always with him. He got very used to it. He didn't mind. For the first time in his life. He wasn't alone. There was an exercise room in the house. Zero figured. He would take advantage of it. He went to exercise while Yuki was doing her plans. Keeping his body in tip-top condition. Along with his hunter skills. He knew sooner or later, he would have to go back to the way things where. He just wasn't in any hurry.
Yuki didn't want to give the party on Zero's exact birthday. She knew that wouldn't be a surprise. That he would see that coming. Not to mention, she had another plan. Yuki was getting more and more back to herself. Filled with life. Filled with plans. All of them surrounding Zero. He made her life complete. Made her happy and alive. It was great seeing her like this.
Yuki goes upstairs to find Zero working out. She just stands in the doorway Looking at his lean hard body. Sweat dripping down his forehead, Making his skin Glisten. She just finds herself watching as each muscle moves as he runs on the treadmill. She finds herself in a trance. Standing there at least 10 minutes. Before Zero says something."Are you liking what your watching?" Zero asks. Yuki snapping out of it by Zero's voice. "Oh, Yea Sorry. I didn't want to disturb you. I just wanted to tell you to please dress up for tonight's dinner." Yuki says. Licking her lips. "Is that all you wanted? " Zero says Looking at her. "Yes. I will let you go back to what you were doing." Yuki says trying to hide her blush. "Ok," Zero responds with a chuckle. Zero knew. She was watching him. He found it cute. He knew deep down she wouldn't do anything to hurt him. He saw the real Yuki coming back.
Later in the day, Its time for dinner. Zero knows Yuki is up to something. He knows how she is. He figures. Whatever. He dresses in the new jeans and sweater. She bought him. He even tries the socks. Which are the most wonderful things, he has ever put on his feet. They are like walking on air. "Good Grief. So this is what a buttload of money buys? Leave it to Kaname to figure out even how to make his feet feel like heaven. That selfish bastard." Zero says to himself. With a little jealousy in his tone.
While he is getting dressed, there is a knock on his door. "May I come in?" Yuki asks. "Yes. The door is open." Zero responds Yuki walks in wearing a Dark grey dress tight fitting. Showing off every curve she has. Her hair tucked in a bun. With matching high heels. The site of her makes Zero's body shiver. Feelings go through him, That shouldn't. He just stares at her. Her beauty taking over him. "Are you ok Zero? You look really nice in your new set. I was hoping you would wear it. I paired my dress to your sweater." Yuki says. "You look gorgeous,"Zero responds. Still staring at her. "Thank you. Are you ready for dinner?" Yuki asks. "Yes. Thank you for the new clothes. I really do like them."Zero says. "You're most welcome. I am glad you like. How do you like the socks?" Yuki says with a giggle. "They are wonderful. Thank you." Zero replies. "I use to steal Kaname's all the time. He was always wondering where they went."She remarks with a giggle."Your not stealing mine."Zero comments with a smile.
They both walk down the tall staircase heading to the dining room. Which the door is closed. Which was new. It was always open at Dinner time. Yuki's arm around Zero's holding on to him as always. She steps back letting Zero open the door. When Zero opens the door. They Say Suprise! The room filled with blue and white balloons, banners that say Happy birthday Zero. A table filled with Sweet Treats. An extra large cake in the shape of 21 in the colors of blue and white. The table all decorated with tableware and flowers. Everything matched and was beautiful. The guests were small. Kaname, Hanabusa, Yori, Takuma, Yagari, and Kaien. All Wishing Zero a Happy birthday. Being very nice and appropriate.
"Hey There, How do you like being here?" Yagari asks."It's been ok. It really wasn't for guarding. It was to get Yuki back on her feet. She was really far gone when I got here."Zero admits. "Well. She looks great now. She is so happy. When are you coming back? Yagari asks. "I don't know. I don't know how long they are going to let me stay here. She is better, but I don't want to leave her."Zero states. "That's going to be an issue. She seems very attached to you." Yagari says. "She is. But I feel the same way. She was in love with me the whole time."Zero confesses. "Anyone could of saw that. It's not a news flash to me boy. I saw it a long time ago. Before either of you knew." Yagari admits. "I wish. You would have said something." Zero states. "It was something, you both had to figure out yourselves." Yagari comments. "Yea we did. Just now its more complicated." Zero says. "When isn't love complicated?" Yagari remarks. Walking over to get some food.
The Night is a total success. Everyone is nice and keeping things light. Even Kaien trying not to cry every five minutes. Knowing how that annoyed Zero.
