FINALLY!!! Well here's the long awaited update I'm sorry it's taken this long. It's been a stressful time for me due to all my A-Level exams starting and a massive bust up in my love life but I have persevered so I hope I don't disappoint.
Disclaimer: Do I have to say it all again?
Zero- Yes you do now start talking! (glares)
MEEP!! Ok I don't own anything!! Not even my soul. Happy?
Zero- Good little Author now go and study!
YES SIR! *scurries of to study for exams*
Yuuki POV
I woke up on the couch encircled by arms and it felt blissful. For once I at felt at peace like when I first decided to be with Kaname leaving my old life behind, looking positively forward to a future that revolved around him. I thought that would make me happy but the passion that once was had vanished; now it consisted of torn sheets, drenched in blood and guilt.
I turned to face the person holding me close even though I knew it would cause me to fill with disappointment; of the pain and realisation of making the wrong decision five years ago. I was infatuated with Kaname then and you always seem to overlook the one's closest to your heart.
Zero looked as if the weight of the world had been taken off his shoulders and he no longer suffered his inner turmoil, he looked…normal. Yeah. Normal; shows how much a person can change huh.
"If you've finished staring I would like to make you some lunch and my arm has gone dead" he slowly opened his eyes revealing them beautiful purple orbs, so cold yet so welcoming.
"Oops sorry Kan…Zero-kun" his eyes became sharper
"I'm nothing like him" he spat
"I kn-"
"I know you know and I don't particularly care. It's you who is worse off now" Zero glanced down and gave off a warmth which instantly relaxed me "now please may I get up?"
"Sure… Zero and thank you, sorry for making you worry" I moved, letting his arms fall to his sides and he stood up less gracefully than Kaname but then again Zero was never one for airs and graces.
-If the white rose petals open one by one, will the memories from those days revive?- It felt as if having Zero here grounded me and I had a chance of standing on my own two feet again. Maybe this time I would have control over my life.
Zero rummaged around my kitchen his silver hair shone in the light while looking messy but it only added to his sex appeal. "You wanna coffee Yuuki?"
"Errm…Yeah that would be nice" sitting up slowly I cradled my head "Oww, I'll have a couple of aspirins as well" My head felt like it would implode and I bet I didn't look much better, even after a shower. "So…err… how have you been?"
"The same old killing Level E's, living with my brother, healing that wound and of course trying to handle the thirst I still have trouble gaining full control even now" he looked back at me.
"Oh" I looked down I don't know why it was an instant reaction I gained from over the years "Do you still need my blood Zero? I can still give you mine" I glanced back up to come face to face with a Zero glare that always has me trembling.
"Yuuki I don't need anything from you, I can handle it I've always managed to. You're a mess you can't do much right now and anyway you've never been able to do something without me coming to save you. If it hadn't been for my reluctance to drink your blood you would be DEAD!" Zero spun back round seemingly throwing about the various utensils he was using to make my lunch and coffee.
I'd done it again me and my big mouth; I can never say something that doesn't hurt him deep down. I slowly got up, fighting the dizziness, got behind Zero and hugged him. "I'm sorry Zero I've hurt you again" Zero relaxed in my arms.
"Yuuki you do it so often I brush it off now a days but it's still painful. There are many things you don't know about me still" –Like the fact I love you- Zero turned back round to face me.
What happened next had me happy, shocked and surprised all at the same time. Zero hugged me back. "There is one thing I do want you to understand this may not be the perfect time and taking advantage but…" He leant down and my eyes went wide as he softly pressed his lips against mine it was completely different to Kaname's kisses, more passionate and caring. I tried to push him away at first yet I couldn't stop as I kissed him back encircled in his arms.
I would like to thank BrownSugar1213 whose messages made me continue knowing that they wanted to actually see the story unfold. So please REVIEW if you read this. Reviews make me want to continue and not lose heart.
Seeing as this song was playing when I wrote this and it goes really well I'd thought I'd tell you it:- Te Busque – Nelly ft. Juanes. The spanish translates to 'I looked for you'
