Chapter 36
"Welcome home!"
Yuki and Zero, who entered the headmaster's house hand in hand returning from their valentine's day date were actually a little taken aback to be greeted by a cheerful Aiyora. "You both are very late." Aiyora commented pointed at the nearby wall clock that was showing the time to be 3.30 am to be precise.
Though Yuki's face had not emotion but her grip on Zero's hand tightened. Making the silver haired hunter look at her. Zero could tell Yuki was fuming inside by the sight of Aiyora, after-all the dark frown on her face clearly said everything. He too returned the gesture by tightening his hold on her hand.
The situation was a complicated one, very complicated to be exact. Yuki cannot tolerate the sight of Aiyora and Aiyora on the other will even leave Yuki's side for once. She continued to follow Yuki like a lost puppy does behind her mother. And this has been going on since morning when Aiyora returned.
Zero tried his best to signal Aiyora to leave Yuki all to herself but she was another nutcase she would not even let off Yuki's sight even for once; especially after hearing that. Aiyora became more determined to find out what was wrong with her beloved Yuki sempai.
"We are home Aiyora!" Zero decided to flash the girl a polite smile seeing that Yuki may not do that but to his utter surprise Yuki too somehow managed to smile at her. The hunter's heart skipped a beat at the sight. Even though it was hard but at least Yuki was trying to understand or maybe she realized that the poor girl is not at fault.
Even during their little dinner Zero tried to speak to Yuki but the female pureblood simply refused to listen.
A toothy grin appeared on Aiyora face and in few long strides she was standing right in front of the pair.
"Hey!" Zero exclaimed in irritation because the next thing Zero knows is being pushed back by Aioyra till he was out of Cross's house.
"What do you think you are doing?" Zero barked at the young female. "You spoiled brat!"
"Out!" Aiyora too barked back complete pushing Zero out. "This is going to be our sisters' night!" She informed teasingly sticking her tongue out at him before slamming the door right on his face to the point it almost touched his nose.
"Arrrggg…these girls are so irritating!" Zero grumbled turning on his heels only to hear Aiyora's screaming voice from the inside of the house shouting back 'We Can Hear You.'
…
"Now tell me," Aiyora said with joy sparkling in her eyes. "…everything IN DETAILS!"
"Nothing happened, nothing interesting." Yuki replied with a tired sigh. This is already the fourth time Aiyora asked her the same thing and from the looks of it seems that she is going to go nowhere till she gets her desired answer.
"No I refuse to believe that." Aiyora interjected flipping her hair to the side and at that moment Yuki caught the sight of deep red mark of love byte right under her collarbone.
Noticing the brunette's comfortable stare on her hickey Aiyora quickly decided to cover that up with her hair once more. Aiyora too noticed that something was off with her dear Yuki-sempai. Ever since her return to the Academy all Yuki has been trying to do is ignore her. But what has she done? As far as her memory serves her…she did nothing nor did they have a fight or argument or anything of that sort; then what happened? Why is the cold shoulder?
"Yuki sempai?" Aiyora called her out suddenly in a firm tone. "Have I done something to dis-please you?" Yuki's eyes widened a bit at her sudden question. "Ever since my return I can sense that you are irritated with me for some reason." Yuki opened her mouth to speak but closed it off because suddenly a phase used by Sara Shirabuki ran through her head.
It is wise to keep your friends close but your enemies…should be closer.
"Even though I don't know what I did, but if somehow I have hurt you in my subconscious and unconscious mind I am sorry…very sorry!"
Keep your enemies closer…
Remember Kaname-kun will never turn his head till Aiyora exists.
With all her might and strength Yuki formed a smile upon her face. She cupped the younger female's face, looked at her with her warm brown eyes and told her. "It's not you Aiyora, I have a lot going on."
"Is it about Kaname-sempai?" Aiyora asked and Yuki just let out a sad sigh. Aiyora huffed. "I do not understand, why? Why do you let his mere presence bother you so much?" Yuki looked at her with her narrowed eyes.
"I mean, look at Zero. He even dressed up in that suit for you tonight. He cares for you so much." Aiyora knew her words were not properly arranged but with her whole heart she hoped that Yuki would understand the message she is trying to convey. "I mean why are you so bothered about Kaname Kuran who is not even here for you. Why are you not looking at the person why is beside you. Don't push him away, Yuki-nii." Yuki just quietly listened. "I do not know about the love you and Kaname sempai shared but I can guarantee you it is not as strong as the bond you share with Zero. I have said before and I will tell you again. Do not push Zero away, you will not get someone who will love you as much as he does."
"Kaname was my beginning…I have loved him all along." Aiyora's jaw dropped hearing that answer.
She felt like as if she got hit by a bus, then fell from the peak of hill and maybe got run over by another truck and then birds ate her remaining.
But snapping her head back to reality Aiyora once more responded with a hum. "Hmmm…may you are right. Kaname was your beginning but what guarantee is there that he is your happily ever after?"
Yuki gave her a puzzled look.
"I mean I have seen the way he looks at you, the love in his eyes are more than real. If you miss out on this…I don't know…I care for you Yuki-nii that is why I want to have the best of everything."
"Tell me something Aiyora…do you not wonder about who you are or where you came from?"
"I used to." Aiyora admitted honesty reflecting in her eyes. "But not anymore…I have Eyan he is my family." Yuki was a little startled by strength of her words.
"He was a stranger to you not too long ago, you bare even know him. How can he be so important to you?"
"Eyan has opened up to me. He shared part of his life that he never shared with anyone. Now I know him more than ever. My respect and love for him has increased to the point of no return. I cannot picture my life without my Eyan beside me."
"So you will never leave him?" This time it was Aiyora's turn to get startled by her questions.
"No never, till my last breath I will be with Eyan." And the line that came out of her mouth next was so powerful that it sent some sort of electrified chill down Yuki's spine. "And no strength in the world can ever separate me and my Eyan."
"Did he make love to you last night?" Aiyora did not answer to that question instead shyly adverted her gaze from the Kuran princess and looked other way. While a light pink blush spread across her cheeks.
Yuki wanted to actually smack herself for asking that question. What was she thinking? As if the hickey under her collar bone was not enough proof.
"Okay…okay now enough with me, Eyan and Kaname." Aiyora said almost growling and clapping her hands. "It is your night, your and Zero's. And I want to hear all about the little date but before that let's get food!" Aiyora fished her line with her drooling mouth.
With that Aiyora dragged Yuki out of her room while she continued with her rambling that the headmaster actually went shopping and bought of lot of snacks for them. And it made Yuki wonder what did Kaname actually see in that obnoxious child who most of the time thinks about food and talks like chatting machine and goes on non-stop!
Suddenly Aiyora stooped in her track only to think if they should get ready made snack and then bake something or just chips.
"Yuki-nii…what are you craving?" She asked without even looking at her.
Yuki on the other hand had her mind corrupted with so many ugly thoughts. Mostly her brain was trying its best to picture the scene of Kaname making love her Aiyora…the passion and fire he shared with her…how intimate they get. And realization hit her, everything this girl is getting is her, they were her to begin with. She was the one born for it and this Aiyora is the one that appeared out of nowhere and took away everything from her. Once more Sara Shirabuki one of the advices popped up in her head.
Keep yourself calm but always look for the opportunity and Yuki this opportunity is something that will not often so when you see it make sure to utilize it well. As it says once its gone…its really gone.
Suddenly Yuki saw everything differently rather more clearly. She noticed the position they were in. Standing on top of their stairs. A voice inside her was screaming at her no but another voice only chanted once name…Kaname…Kaname…Kaname…
Yuki could fell her sense leaving her soul. All she could see before her eyes was a smiling Aiyora running into Kaname's arms and he picked her up and twirled her around like it is done to an adorable child.
Kaname…Kaname…Kaname…
Her vision could see how Kaname always pampered her. He fed her with his own hand; he even bathed her and ran after her trying to chase her down when Aiyora would refuse to wear her clothes. He dried her with towel, combed it for her, blow dried it and what not! It does not only stop there he would pick her up by her knees and carry her around, or even occasionally gave her a piggyback ride like the onces given to children.
Kaname…Kaname…Kaname…
Then she saw their intimate moments when Kaname sank his fangs into her neck, the delight he took upon drinking her blood and how passionately and in the steamiest way he made love to her afterwards.
My Kaname…mine only…
Yuki could feel the blood inside her running cold…
And before Yuki could even realize it all happened…both her hands, with all the force it could master, did the most hideous act of all time… she pushed Aiyora off the stairs.
…
After changing Zero went to check on Kaito who was actually on patrol that night. To make sure everything was on order. As the two hunters conversed and suddenly a loud screaming cry from Aiyora's voice reached their ear.
"What the-?" Kaito cursed.
"No!" Zero became alerted because he was the one among the two who was able the smell the strong scent of blood followed by that screaming.
Wasting no time Zero ran and Kaito too followed behind and strangely enough it led them towards the headmaster's house. Zero burst in through the front door on to be frozen at the horrifying sight before him.
"Zero could you not run-" Kaito too was unable to finish his sentence.
There, before their eyes were Aiyora lying down unconscious over a small pool of blood.
…
Zero, Kaito also by this time joined by the headmaster and Yagari, all four men stood in front of the infirmary. Soon a school doctor came out with a not so satisfying look on her face.
"She is out of danger headmaster…" The female informed the headmaster fixing her glasses. "But please contact her family as immediately as possible."
"Will she be okay?" Zero asked.
"What happened to her?" Kaito asked.
"Sai? Is everything alright?" this time the headmaster asked his face and voice filled with concerned for the girl that he came to consider as his youngest daughter.
"Headmaster…" the females named Sai took a deep breath before finishing off what she planned to inform them. "Aiyora was pregnant, but… she just had a miscarriage!"
