This is a drabble & short story collection for my kinkier Vampire Knight ficlets. :D

I have another collection of Vampire Knight drabbles, but I kept having kinkier plot bunnies, and since I didn't want to post them in the same collection and have to rise the rating of the whole collection just for the few more lemony ones, I made a second story collection.
Scattered Pleasures will have the more lemony or too limey ficlets, and Scattered Leaves will have all the other ones.
(Scattered Leaves ranges from harder angst and H/C etc. all the way to comical drabbles even, so it's rather wide. I don't know yet if Scattered Pleasures will be the same.)

I'm also still writing longer one-shots and possibly series, so the drabble collections just gets updated when I feel like writing a short story. :)


#01 : Blind touches and bittersweet pleasures.

Characters: Normally I'd list them here for each drabble, but for this one, find out as you read. ;)

Disclaimer: I don't own Vampire Knight, this is a fanfic written for fun and for love of the series. I'm not making any money with it.

Warning: Kind of AU, passed a few years later. Also mention of things that are spoilers for volume 5 of the manga.

"Uhn…"

The pureblood couldn't hold back the whimper escaping his lips at last. The tiny sound elicited an immediate frown from the silver haired male above him, who also happened to be the cause of the bittersweet pleasure racking through the brunet's body and tearing that surrendering whimper from his lips. The man bent down and hissed low by the pureblood's ear.

"Shhh…I hate hearing your voice."

Disrespectful to say the least, but that actually sent a delicious shiver through the dark-haired vampire's already achingly needy body. That voice had such power over him, especially if he ignored the fact that it sounded a tiny little bit different than it did in his dreams. He egged the other on. "Then you talk. I want to hear yours."

"Fine." A curt and annoyed reply, eliciting a shudder of delight from the pureblood. Yes, he would often speak that way, wouldn't he…

The silver haired man plowed into him, going from rough to extremely caring from a moment to the other, in a paradoxical mix of tenderness and brutality that kept the pureblood on edge, making it nearly impossible for him to resist the urge to moan, trash, scream. But he held his part of the deal, and stayed silent, reveling in the little noises the other was purposefully making to arouse him and fulfill his side of the exchange.

The other's touch became more and more gentle as the pureblood remained silent, as if it was just the sound of his voice that caused the more brutal reactions.

The pureblood threw back his head and braced for the moment when he knew it would be hardest to keep his composure. He clenched his teeth hard, holding his breath but keeping his eyes wide open to focus on the sight of the gorgeous silver-haired man thrusting into him, chiseled body and face glistening with sweat, wet strands of hair clinging to his skin. The pureblood burned that image into his mind over and over, never getting enough of it, until he felt himself tumble over the edge into the desperately needed release. Something hot and white splashed between them, staining his chest and the other's stomach with sticky nectar. The silver haired man's reaction to that wet warmth was clear shock, as if he was snapping out of a dream. His amethyst eyes, that were squeezed tight shut throughout the act --so that he could just feel that unmistakable pure vampire presence, but without seeing the pureblood's face-- opened suddenly with a look of anger.

"It's not fair. Your body always ruins the illusion for me." There was something akin to contempt in that voice, but with clear pain beneath the words. It sent a twinge of guilt to the pureblood's heart.

"I'm sorry... I'll use a tissue next time."

The silver haired man pulled out and moved away sighing heavily. He sat on the side of the bed, not yet fulfilled but no longer in the mood to continue. He bent over burying his face in his hands and took a long pained breath, the futility of it all hitting him hard now that the fantasy was broken.

A weight shifted on the bed, and a pair of slender arms snaked around his waist from behind. Despite the initial urge to shove those hands away, he found himself giving in and allowing the fingers to encircle him. He wasn't sure he wanted this though.

"Why would you bother doing this? You already finished anyway!"

No reply came, the pureblood's lips brushing against his ear in silence instead, the rhythm of the movements of his hand picking up speed, infinitely skilled. The silver haired man stifled a choked sob in his throat, before slipping back into the game. It's not so bad… his fingers are long and delicate, if I close my eyes again it might work.

The pureblood then did something that finished convincing him completely. He ran his lips down the man's neck, allowing his fangs to lengthen and scrape the delicate skin over his arteries, before pulling away in a teasing manner and starting again, sending a rush through the silver haired man's body each time he felt he was about to be bitten, and then those fangs refused themselves, pulling back at the last minute. It was incredibly cruel yet absolutely perfect, and quickly the man was completely lost, a string of little moans slipping unbidden from his lips, his whole body shuddering strongly with the approach of the release. The pureblood went on, nuzzling his neck and teasing that flushed skin with his fangs until the man climaxed hard. His hand didn't slacken, milking the other until the last drop of his pleasure trickled away, each little gasp a delight to hear and etch into his memory.

In a bittersweet contrast with the act their bodies were engrossed with, both had tears in their eyes.

The silver-haired man was still reeling from the release, and wrapped loving fingers around the pureblood's hand, lost in the dream, whispering barely audibly "Shizuka-sama…"

The man behind him finally gave in to the urge he had from the beginning, and buried his face into the other's silky silver hair, inhaling deeply and gasping out "Zero!" through quivering lips, tears rolling down his face.

They got up silently, took turns showering and ignored each other while they got dressed, merely exchanging what may look like a professional glance just before nodding at each other and parting ways. Long ago, they would have said words like "see you next week?" or "we should stop doing this", and even words of regret and guilt at the dubious morality of their acts. But there was no longer room for that in their relationship, if relationship it could be called.

Both knew they would come for each other again, when the emptiness became too unbearable.

For a small moment of bittersweet pleasure, in a world where the two people they truly wished to be with were no longer.

The end


As you certainly already realized, it was Kaname and Ichiru, in a make believe that Zero and Shizuka were still alive and they were with them… (It's AU-ish, in that it's passed some time later and some people are alive and others aren't.)

Ignore the fact Ichiru might feel inclined to gut Kaname for killing Shizuka. XD XD;;

.

The ramblings ahead contain Rido-related spoilers, so you might want to skip unless you're up to date with the manga:

I got the vibe Ichiru didn't blame Kaname for her death, but Rido, which sounds about right, since Rido is the one who caused it all to happen and whom Shizuka wanted to kill.
Shizuka and Kaname were just playing the game, and both knew well one of them would come out dead.
In the chapter where Kaname comes to the room where Rido is, I felt that perhaps Ichiru was hoping Kaname would kill Rido. When he didn't kill him, Ichiru suddenly became more questioning and less respectful, which clashed with the overly pliant way he was being with Kaname while he opened the coffin etc. (Although Ichiru also wished that Rido would regain his body so that he could try to kill him while in his true form, but he probably had hoped Kaname would do it since then the revenge would be fulfilled for sure.)

Those two could have interesting interactions! XD
