xXRoseGoddess874Xx- No she didn't stop him.

firefairy032003- I can't tell you if she will trust him again or not, it will ruin the story but yeah poor Seto. He tried not to scare her.

KiWingz- Yeah, the story needed some humor so you got a donkey for a teacher.

xxxChIhArUxxx- I can't tell you if they ever get together. It would give away the story. I wish I could tell you though.

Well I am going camping YAY. So I probably wont be updating again until Monday. Well I hope you all enjoy this chapter.

It was the first Friday of December and Christmas spirit was in the air, well in most of the air anyways. Seto and Serenity hadn't spoken to each other since Seto's confession.

There was only one week until Christmas vacation and most of the students were going home to their families. Serenity and Joey were staying since they had no family to return to and Seto had made arrangements with Headmaster Dumbledore for Mokuba to spend the winter holiday at the school. As long as Seto and Serenity weren't in the same room everything was great.

'The day is nearly over, only one more class' Serenity thought to herself with a smile. She couldn't wait for the weekend to start. She and Joey were going with Professor Ishtar and Malik to get each other, and their friends, presents.

Serenity took her seat next to Seto and all happy thoughts were immediately banished and replaced with fearful ones.

Though out the hole class Seto was having a hard time fighting the urge encourage Serenity's fear. He had noticed that this was something he enjoyed doing more now than ever before. It was like half the fun of being a creature of the night was causing people fear.

He had also learned that he had many powers. Along with Teleportation and Telepathy, or mined control, he had the power of telekinesis and shape shifting. All of these things came in handy when trying to catch prey that is on to you and decides to run.

After class Serenity skipped dinner. She wasn't hungry and she had lots of homework to do before tomorrow morning. Instead of heading for the great hall as she usually would after dinner she went up to the library to get some peace and quite only to fined Mai sitting at the far corner table.

Serenity strolled up and sat across from Mai. It wasn't a bad thing that Mai was there, Serenity actually wanted to talk to her.

"Hi Mai." Serenity greeted cheerfully.

"Hi Hun, how's it going." Mai's response was nearly as cheery.

"Good, if you don't count Kaiba." Serenity's responded slightly grumpily.

"Are you still upset about the vampire thing?" Mai asked as if it was stupid to still be upset.

"No, I'm afraid for my life around him." Serenity responded, "I mean look what happened to Tea when she got involved with a vampire." Sadness filled her voice.

"Serenity, you're being stupid about this hole thing. It's Been what three weeks, almost a month since Seto told you he was a Vamp? What has he done to make you think that he is going to hurt you?" Mai asked as though her questions were getting to a point that Serenity could not yet see.

"It has been five months and he hasn't done anything… to me at least." Serenity answered.

"Don't you think that if he was the blood thirsty killer you think he is that he would have killed you by now if he wanted to?" Mai asked still working towards something.

"He's waiting for the opportune moment to kill me." Serenity responded simply.

Mai just rolled her eyes at this. Trying not to become frustrated with the stubborn Wheeler girl she said, "I have talked to Seto and it is tearing him apart to have you so scared of him and I know it is killing you to. You love him and you know it."

"How could I love a blood thirst monster?" Serenity asked sadness filling her voice.

Serenity knew every word Mai had just spoken that pertained to her was true. She did love Seto and it was killing her to feel so much fear around him but she couldn't help it.

"When you realize Seto isn't out to get you, come talk to me." Mai said to frustrated to continue the conversation.

'He's a vampire, a blood thirsty monster, how could I love him?' Serenity asked herself her mined filled with sadness.

'He's dangerous and different.' A male voice said seductively.

Serenity looked around quickly searching for the source of the voice. When she didn't see anyone she reached out with her mined scanning the thoughts of every mined she encountered for a hint to who might have spoken.

'You won't fined me out there.' The voice teased as if challenging her to look for it's source harder.

"Then where are you?" Serenity asked aloud.

'Keep your voice down, people might begin to think you are crazy, talking to thin air like that.' The voice was now beginning to grate on Serenity's nerves.

"Show yourself." She whispered angrily.

'Alright but you have to close your eyes.' The voice was playful and teasing.

Serenity did as he asked and closed her eyes. What she saw shocked her thoroughly.

A tall thin man about Serenity's age stepped from the deep purple haze in her mined. He was wearing a pair of faded black genes and a tight short sleeved T. His eyes were the color of rubies and his perfect waist-length black hair was pulled back in a loose pony tail.

'Told you I wasn't out there.' He said smoothly in an "I told you so" type voice.

'Who are you?' Serenity demanded in mined.

'Lestat.' The man answered simply.

'What are you?' Serenity asked angrily.

'What I am isn't important.' Lestat answered with no intention of making what exactly he was clear.

This annoyed Serenity but she had more important things she wanted to know.

'Why are you here?' This question she refused to drop until it was answered to her satisfaction.

'I am here to make you see Seto isn't evil and that you love him.' Lestat answered simply and clearly.

'He's a monster how could I love him?' Serenity asked feeling very much defeated by this point.

She knew the truth but was refusing to admit it.

'He's different for all the other men you know. He doesn't chase after you like a lost puppy, and he doesn't hang out with your brother, and he doesn't hit on you as if you are some cheep hoer. That is why you can love him. As for the monster part, he will never turn that evil energy on you.' Lestat explained convincingly and then he was gone.

The end of yet another chapter. Serenity has gained a voice in her mined. What are these voices really? Well please R&R and let me know what you think.
