DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN VAMPIRE KNIGHT!
Enjoy the story lovelies! :3
"Why the hell am I in this cell and not her?!" Zero barked as Kaito leaned against the wall next to me. "You attacked a pureblood vampire without cause for one." Kaito grumbled. "She broke into my home!" Zero argued. "I was there, Zero, we both were knocking on your door and when you weren't answering we thought the worst happened to you so she found the spare key and let us in." Kaito explained. Zero scoffed at him and I sighed heavily.
Great and we are back to Zero being hostile towards me.
"Stop trying to lie for her! She was alone and she broke in my home!" Zero barked. "For the love of! Kaito is telling the truth, Zero! You didn't show up to work today and everyone was worried so Kaito and I went to check on you. When you weren't answering your damn door we took action." I defended Kaito. "Yeah I'm sure that's a likely story. All of you purebloods are the same. You're monsters-" "Kiryu, I wouldn't go there." Kaito warned, interrupting Zero.
I clenched my jaw as I tried to force back the tears that were threatening to come out. He did not just call me that! He once knew how I felt about myself and was defensive whenever someone dared describe me as such things!
"Go to hell, Zero! I've been biting my tongue, holding back my true feelings on things you say, because you're memories are fucking tampered but you just went to far! I never asked to become a fucking vampire! That was forced upon me thanks to my fucking sister! The only one acting like a monster here is you!" I snapped and looked over at Kaito. "Tell, Kaien I went home early and I won't be coming in tomorrow." I growled and stormed out of where the holding cells are located.
I felt sick to my stomach as I marched outside the gates as I realized I just called Zero a monster when he was afraid I would see him as such last year. 'Well the way he has been acting deserves it.' I tried to reassure myself mentally but it didn't ease the guilt eating me alive. He's only like this thanks to Suki.
I tried to ignore the stares that were aimed at me, no doubt wondering why I look like I will either murder someone or burst into tears as I tried to hurry out of the town and head back to the manor where I can be alone in peace.
I barely made it halfway up the steps to manor when I collapsed onto my knees from the overwhelming guilt and heartache. I bursted into tears and I cursed under my breath. I couldn't make it till I was a least behind the door? Well at least I didn't break down in the middle of town. I heard the door opened and I looked up to see Aidou looking at me surprised. "Not one word, Aidou~sensi." I grumbled and tried to wipe away the tears rolling down my face.
"I was just trying to figure out who was outside crying." He said defensively before holding out a hand to me. I took it and he helped me up onto my feet. "Kiryu again?" He asked. I nodded as I brushed my knees off from any dirt and debris. "Come on I'll make you some tea, and don't go locking yourself in your room again." He growled. I scoffed at the last part. "Wrong twin, Aidou. That was Yuuki that locked herself up." I reminded him. He puffed his cheeks and grumbled under his breath something I couldn't make out under his breath. "Just go to the sitting room." He groaned as he helped me out of my coat. I nodded and did as he instructed. I headed towards the sitting room and sat down on the couch. I brushed off my business skirt and pinched the bridge of my nose.
Poor Kaito is probably dealing with a mess I caused in there. I should have kept my cool, but it was just too much. I'm not giving up on Zero, but there is just so much hostility from him that I can take and clearly I had reached my limit.
There was a knock on the door and I sighed heavily. "Are you expecting visitors?" Aidou asked as he came into the sitting room and placed a cup of tea in front of me. "Probably Kaien checking on me. No doubt Kaito told him what happened and what was said between us." I mumbled. "Just stay here and drink your tea and calm down. I'll get the door." He assured me. "Aidou, you're not a slave or servant." I argued. "I know but you did just broke down outside your door and clearly still upset." He stated. "Thank you, Aidou, I really appreciate your help. I probably don't say it enough but I do." I told him. He blushed brightly and bowed his head. "I'm always happy to help you and your family." He told me and stepped out of the room. I grabbed my cup and took a sip out of it while keeping my ears tuned into what is going on in the entryway.
"You got a lot of nerve showing up here." Aidou growled. I cocked an eyebrow and resumed drinking my tea.. "Is Iris home?" I heard Zero asked. I nearly spat my tea out, but in my attempt to prevent myself from spitting it out it went down the wrong pipe and I started coughing. I cleared my throat and tried to blink the tears away once my coughing fit was done. I got up from the couch and headed to the doorway. I poked my head out to see if maybe I was imagining things, but nope there he was outside the door.
"Even If she is, I'm not letting you inside." Aidou growled. I stepped out and headed towards the door. Zero glanced over at me and then back at Aidou. "Well it looks like she is here." Zero told him as I stood behind Aidou. "Huh?!" Aidou gasped and looked behind him and looked at me in disbelief. "I swear! You and your sister both never listen to me!" He growled. "It's fine, Aidou~sensi, I'll see what he wants and if he causes trouble I'll call for you." I promised.
He sighed heavily and shook his head. "At least I only have to answer to you right now." He grumbled under his breath and headed back to the sitting room. I looked over at Zero and crossed my arms over my chest and leaned against the door. He seemed a bit surprised by my sudden cold attitude, but he didn't let it faze him long. I'm protecting myself right now, I'm getting tired of these complete 180 personality changes towards me and I know it's not like him which is more tiring.
"So why are you?" I demanded. "A few things really." He answered. I cocked an eyebrow and waited for him to continue. "I shouldn't have called you a monster and I apologize for calling you as such." He told me. "I shouldn't have called you that either." I pointed out.
"Another thing, what did you mean by my memories were tampered?" He asked. I grimaced and sighed heavily. "You wouldn't believe me if I tired to explain it to you. I tried explaining one thing to you but you got hostile about it. The person who has been tampering with your memories and still is, went to great lengths for some reason." I pointed out.
His eyebrows furrowed for a moment and then widened in shock. "Are you talking about when you said Suki was a vampire?" He demanded. "If you still don't believe that, use Bloody Rose on her." I told him.
"I'm not shooting my girlfriend and how dare you suggest such a thing!" He snapped. "Oh but it's okay to constantly point Bloody Rose at me, threaten me, treat me like shit when-" I stopped in mid sentence when I realized I was about to spill the more important part on why I'm so upset about all this. "When what?!" He demanded. I shrugged off the door and took a deep breath to calm myself down. "Come to me when you're done listening the the illusions, because I'm done trying to pry their hands away from your eyes." I told him.
