It is almost night time as a black car containing a girl arrives at cross academy. The door opens and reveals Roselle getting out with her luggage. Not long after a mysterious girl in a black cape appears but you can't see who it is. Roselle walks up to the stranger to ask who she is.

"Why hello there my name is Roselle, who are you?" Roselle asked sweetly.

"It's none of your business vampire" The girl tortorted coldly.

"Uh...Okay, are you here to attend cross academy?"

The strange girl stands silent not want to talk to Roselle who has had enough of the silence and refusal to answer her questions. "Excuse me for trying to make friends in a place I've never lived in"

"How can you be so rude?"

There was still no response from the silent girl. "All I want to know is your name!" Roselle said in frustration.

"I have no friends here, I had to leave my home cause someone is out to get me and I don't know why." The girl snarled.

"I'm just here to make a fresh start and I have no one to turn to" Roselle started crying out of frustration as everything that has happened comes back to her. The stranger removes her hood as she is overwhelmed as no one had ever approached to be her friend and opened up to her like that since her mother died and ran away from home.

"T-T-There's no need to cry." Not knowing how to comfort Roselle since she had not come across a situation like this. "My name is Elaine and I know how you feel I've had to do the same thing". Roselle now calmed down is surprised that Elaine had even been through something like leaving your home and that she even answered since Elaine could tell that she was a vampire and from her initial response that she didn't like them or maybe even people in general.

"Thanks Elaine, I am from Ireland , what about you. " Same". All seems well between Roselle and Elaine as former barriers of pain and distrust seem to crumble until... "Sorry we are late Roselle-sama, my name is Yuki and this is Zero. Who are you? We were told that only one person was arriving today."

"I came here on my own. Is that a problem, and I don't like people like you so don't get any ideas you freak just take me to the office so I can get settled and get away from all these people." Elaine said bitterly.

"Elaine what's got into you? you seemed so nice."

"JUST DO AS I ASKED AND LEAVE ME ALONE VAMPIRE!" Even though it seemed that things were getting better Elaine reverts back to her old hateful self. "I'll take her there first Yuki, you show Roselle around first then bring her to Headmaster Cross."

Later inside the headmasters office things are a little uncomfortable for Elaine. "So you want to enroll in my academy do you?"

"Yes I just said that, now hurry up, and finish so I can get out of here, oh and one more thing."

"Yes?"

"I don't want a roommate…"

"WHY NOT!" Head master asks in surprise, and somewhat angry.

"I hate people."

"All right, Zero show her to the day class girl dorms and the girls dorm president will take it from there." As an annoyed Elaine leaves the room Yuki and Roselle arrive. "I've brought Roselle -sama headmas-father" Yuki said.

"Thank you Yuki, now Roselle you will be in the night class for vampires, you do not have to attend class until tomorrow night so you can unpack and get settled in, is that alright?"

"Yes it is headmaster and thank you for letting me come here."

"You're welcome". The door opens and a tall black haired male with strange walks in. " Why hello Kaname, what is it that you want?"

"I came to talk to you and to meet the new student, my name is Kaname Kuran it is nice to meet you."

"Thank you, my name is Roselle O'Connor and it's nice to meet you Kaname." For a split moment Kaname and Roselle stare into each other's eyes. "Uhh sorry to interrupt but Yuki could you please take Roselle to moon dorms."

" YES! HEADMASTER."

"Call me father."

"Seiren will show you to your room."

"Thank you." As they leave Roselle tries to make a conversation to break the awkward silence since she is unsure of whether to trust Yuki or not. "Not to imply anything, but he's cute and he seems really nice and gentleman like."

"I haven't had much luck in making friends though my ex-boyfriend was really controlling and obsessive too, sorry if I seem a little distant I don't trust many people."

"That's okay and I have to agree with you on that one". "What do you mean, that Kaname is cute and gentleman like?"

"Yes"

"I think that we are going to get along fine Yuki."

Meanwhile Elaine and Zero arrive at the day class dorms. "Well here we are, over there are the girls dorms."The girl's dorm president walks up to greet them. "Why hello Zero, why are you not on patrol and who are you."

"Elaine, I am attending school here now show me where my room is."

"Uh okay follow me."

There are too many people here but i guess I'll just have to get over it. That Zero guy was weird. but cute though, he seems a little like myself. NO ELAINE! Don't say that remember you hate people especially men.Elaine thought to herself as she found her room. Both Elaine and Roselle make their way to their dorms and their new lives at cross academy.

It seems like Roselle might like Kaname, and Elaine is showing her true colors but it seems more like a defense mechanism. What will happen next? Stay tuned for Chapter 2 of Love brings strength.
