Chapter 3

"Hello ladies." Zero and Ichiru spoke in unison to the girls at Aidou's table.

The girls turned around and immediately their faces were lit up as the Kiryu twins stood with each other. Ichiru was leaning his chin on the right side of his brother's shoulder with both arms wrapped around Zero's waist.

"I-it's the Brotherly Love Twins." One of the schoolgirls cried as she quickly got up from her seat. Her hip slightly hit the table making the three occupants sway before catching their balance.

"Here in the flesh ladies." Ichiru said winking at the girl.

"Kya! Wink at me Ichiru-sempai." The girl on the table asked.

At this point all the girls were swarming around Ichiru and Zero leaving a pissed looking Aidou on the table.

"Hello…what about me?"

The girls didn't pay no mind to the voice calling them from behind as they were too caught up in the sudden appearance surrounding the twins.

"Onii-Chan, you keep winking at these girls yet you haven't winked at me." Zero said in a sad tone causing the girls to aw in response.

"I'm sorry; I didn't mean to hurt you. For you are the only one I need." Ichiru pulled his brother's face close to him until there was only an inch apart away from their lips.

"Ichiru stop it, we're not supposed to do this in public." Zero whispered.

"Don't worry they won't tell." Ichiru glanced at the blushing girls all staring at them as if they were some soap opera couple from daytime television or a yoai couple from the manga's they read.

"You won't tell, will you girls?"

All five girls shook their heads quickly.

"See Zero, they won't tell and plus it's just a kiss." Ichiru leaned closer.

"HELLO!" Aidou called angrily to the crowd ignoring him.

Zero and Ichiru pulled apart before they were able to kiss each other even though they were never going to since they anticipated Aidou to interrupt before that happened and that was enough to make the girls turn and send death glares his way for interrupting a hot and sexy moment they rarely got to see.

"You idiot! Just when they were about to kiss you had to interrupt." One schoolgirl spat.

"Yea Idol-sempai, why do you have to ruin it for us?"

"Yea!" All five girls said in unison.

"Now ladies, don't be so harsh on Aidou." Zero said in a deep voice, his tone had a double meaning that only Aidou knew that the other was pure mockery meant for him instead of the seduction the girls heard. Aidou narrowed his eyes, but for the twins it was pure amusement that sealed their victory.

"Well, sorry ladies we must go, we have other customers awaiting our arrival." Ichiru said. "Be good to Aidou now, for I think our presence caused him loneliness."

The girls turned to look at Aidou who was acting like a hurt puppy and immediately the schoolgirls went crawling back to Aidou to comfort him. With that, the twins left with satisfied smiles on their faces. Upon reaching Mizuki who clapped at their wonderful performance, the twins boss Toga was there to greet them as well.

"Got to hand it to you boys," Toga began clearly impressed at what he saw. "You guys have some talent in bringing the ladies over to your side."

Ichiru turned to Mizuki. "Don't you want to join the dark side too, Mizuki?"

"As if, lover boy." Mizuki sneered.

"Not every girl can cross Toga." Zero chuckled. Toga nodded then pulled out his clipboard and scanned over the next guest for the twins.

"Good news boys. These are your last customers for the evening and not only that, but they are at separate stations which means you will be working independently tonight."

"Aw to bad, I was really looking forward in being the dominate one today." Ichiru teased.

"Where's our station?" Zero asked, ignoring the smirk on his brother's face.

"Well, Ichiru's next customer is Shizuka Hiou and she will be dining in the Japanese theme dining area and yours Zero will be in the Victorian era theme dining room."

"Ah, the older ladies can't get enough of this." Ichiru bragged, but then received a slap to the head by Zero and Mizuki.

"Don't get cocky Ichiru." Zero warned.

"Gees, who died and made you my boss,"

"I did."

"Tch…whatever, I'm going to woo my customer." Ichiru walked toward the direction of his next assigned customer. Zero sighed before he too dismissed himself and walked toward his next table.

"Welcome to Silver Moon." The door attendant greeted as the members of Bloody Rose made their entrance. "We've been expecting you."

"Well it's a pleasure." Cross answered with a smile on his face.

"If you'll follow me I will lead you to your table in the Victorian era section of Silver Moon."

"You guys have fun." Cross called.

"You're not dining with us?" Rima questioned.

"I am much too old for a thing like this and please I have someone else entertaining me tonight." Cross said with a wink as he skipped along in the opposite direction.

"Creepy old man." Shiki commented as he continued to follow the door attendant toward their seating area.

When they entered the dining area immediately all conversation stopped as customers and hosts stared disbelievingly as the popular band Bloody Rose as they made their way across the room and into the private table set especially for them. Flashes were taken as people took shots of Kaname and his band members, if it wasn't for the mysterious aura surrounding them many of the customers would have gone up for autographs.

The band members were seated in a gold and red circular booth.

"Your hosts shall be arriving shortly." The door attendant informed bowing before taking his leave.

It was only mere minutes of waiting until Ruka, Yuki, and Takuma had arrived. On their way they heard whispers of the presence of Bloody Rose.

Of course, at first the trio didn't believe it was true, but now there they were upon the presence of one of the most famous upcoming bands.

"Good evening and welcome to Silver Moon." Ruka greeted in a seductive tone, her eyes never leaving those of Kaname's mellow stare. "I'm Ruka Souen."

"I'm Takuma Ichjirou."

"And I'm Yuki Cross."

"Wait, you're thee Yuki Cross. The daughter of that crazy founder and president of Cross records?" Kain asked surprised.

Yuki blushed in embarrassment and nodded. "I like to keep it a secret, since if people knew I was related to a record company owner, people will use me to get to my father."

"Yes, and those people make up the bastards of this world." Rima stated.

"Amen sister." A server said as she passed by the table heading toward another customer's booth two tables down.

"I never knew you were the daughter of Kaien Cross." Ruka looked at Yuki as if seeing her for the first time.

"Well, I only told a few people about it like Sayori, Takuma, and Zero."

"Ugh, why tell Zero about such a secret Yuki." Ruka huffed.

"Now Ruka there's no need to speak that way about Zero." Takuma said opening a box of pocky sticks and placing one in both the mouths of Rima and Shiki who were both enjoying the blonds company especially Shiki who couldn't keep his wondering hands from traveling around Takuma's body. Yuki was hosting Kain as Ruka was accompanying a bored looking Kaname.

Ruka just rolled her eyes and lit the cigarette hanging between Kaname's rosy lips.

"Not to get into your 'fascinating' conversation, but it seems that you have quite a dislike for this Zero guy." Kaname pointed out taking a long drag of his cigarette.

"Dislike is not even a good word to put it." Ruka said simply, "He's a royal pain in the ass, in my opinion. I mean the guy can't even stand to listen to your music Kaname-sama."

Kaname's band members stilled at hearing this, shivers ran up their spines and goose bumps appeared on their arms as their eyes were set upon a darkly amused Kaname leaning against the velvet cushion of the red and gold booth seat.

"Must be quite a guy to hate my music." Kaname said scathingly. "I will love to meet him."

"Um…If I am right I think that he is dining in the same place as we are, but I can't be sure though." Ruka leaned forward pouring Kaname a class of red wine that was previously there sitting in a gold plated wine cooler.

"Well, I guess I have some hunting to do." Kaname got up from his seat and began walking to the nearest server all the while ignoring the calls of his band members for Kaname was too wrapped up in finding this certain music hater.

"Excuse me miss, but do you know if there is a host named Zero around this dining room?" Kaname asked a red haired server passing out food menus to a table of four.

Mizuki turned to face the voice that called her and was surprised to see one of her favorite band members in person.

Kaname was wearing a black button shirt with the first couple of buttons undone and a purple and black checkered tie that was loosen around his neck. Dark blue jeans hugged the curved of his hips, and on his feet were matching purple and black vanz. Eyeliner was placed on the bottom eyelid of his eye making his already dark garnet eyes seem darker.

"W-who again are you looking f-for?" Mizuki said stuttering.

"I'm looking for Zero do you happen to know where he is?"

Mizuki nodded then pointed to a table on the far corner of the dining room where a silver haired host was flirting with a blond businesswoman. Kaname thanked Mizuki and began making his way toward Zero's table with every intention to ruin the boy's night in hopes to satisfy both his boredom and his wondering curiosity of the boy that dared to hate his music.

As Kaname approached the table, whatever conversation that was between Zero and the woman ceased as they both stared up at the hovering vocal singer of Bloody Rose.

"You Zero?" Kaname asked staring at the annoyed looking silver haired boy.

"Yea and what of it."

Kaname's smile widen as he grabbed onto Zero's wrist, "Your coming with me."

"What the hell." Zero shouted trying to pry his hand from Kaname, but it was no use for the person had unbelievable strength. Kaname dragged the struggling boy across the dining room until he pushed him roughly onto the booth him and his friends were occupying with their host.

"What the hell is the meaning of this? Who the hell are you anyway?" Zero demanded.

"Oh my, where are my manners," Kaname spoke sarcastically, "I'm Kaname Kuran and these are my friends Kain, Shiki, and Rima."

"Nice to meet you and now if you'll excuse me I have a customer to attend to now." Zero lifted himself up, but only to be pulled back down as Kaname pulled him from the back of his shirt.

"What a rude boy you are, you didn't let me finish what I was saying yet." Kaname said peevishly, "I don't know if you have noticed yet, but do I look familiar to you in anyway?"

Zero inched a bit closer taking as much as he can before his eyes widen in shock.

"Ah, so you do know who I am."

"Yea your that guys son from down the street right? I thought I already apologized for smashing your father's window with my baseball 7 years ago." Zero said as he pondered about it.

The table was dead silent for a few moments before the table erupted in laughter, everyone even Ruka could not resist the urge to laugh to their hearts content. It was a good two minutes before everyone became silent once more as the aura around Kaname began to darken.

"So, I assume you aren't the son of my neighbor are you."

"Wow, so you do have a brain."

"Listen I don't know who the hell you are, but you sure got some nerve talking to me like that." Zero huffed angrily.

"Zero, how dare you talk to Kaname-sama in such a manner?" Ruka sat glaring at Zero, "Do you even know who he is?"

"Does it look like I know or even want to for that matter?"

"He is Kaname Kuran the lead singer from the band Bloody Rose." Ruka answered ignoring Zero's last statement.

Zero turned his head until his eyes met those of Kaname's and there is where it hit him that Ruka was telling the truth, because standing right next to him was Kaname Kuran from the band Zero hated most.
