Opening Theme: Rescue by KAT-TUN
"MOU, AIDOU-SENPAI!!" I screamed at the vampire who had lunged at me grabbing me into a big hug since I haven't seen him for so long.
"AIDOU-SENPAI!! PLEASE LET ME GO! KANAME-SENPAI WOULDN'T LIKE IT IF HE KNEW THAT YOU WERE MALESTING ME!!"
"Demo, you're not Yuuki-chan, so he wouldn't care." He protested, clinging on to me even more.
"Mou, Aidou-senpai, you're going to kill Aka-chan here." Ichijou-senpai laughed behind Aidou
"Ano…If you don't mind, can you let go of Akari-san please?" Hikaru-kun asked timidly next to me
As if his words was a command, Aidou-senpai slowly released me (but still hugging me), staring at the guy next to me. I tried my best to release myself but failing miserably.
"Aidou-senpai, Ichijou-senpai, this is Hakushou Hikaru-kun. From today onwards he will be attending Cross Academy." I introduced them to him. "Hikaru-kun, this is Hanabusa Aidou-senpai and Ichijou Takuma-senpai."
"Nice to meet you" He gracefully took a short bow
"Because Kaname-senpai is speaking with Yuuki-chan and Zero somewhere in the forest…Chairman Cross said that you should show Hikaru-kun his room, Ichijou-senpai." I continued
Ichijou-senpai nodded and smiled happily at him
Aidou-senpai stared at Hikaru-kun…actually, more like glaring…
"What's your relationship with Aka-chan?" He asked menacingly
"AIDOU-SENPAI!!!"I flushed pretty badly "We're-"
"We're just friends…" He finished off for me, smiling nicely to him
Aidou-senpai smiled evilly and hugged me tighter again
"Well that's good, because Aka-chan belongs to me and only me! Ne, Aka-chan?"
"EHHH?!?!?!?!!?" I screamed, trying to protest, "B-BUT-"
"Well, isn't that good…"
I stared at Hikaru-kun who had cut in, he was smiling painfully, looking onto the ground again
"H-Hikaru-kun…"
"Well, I'm pretty tired, can you show me to my room please Ichijou-kun?"
"Hai, you don't need to be so formal to me Hakushou-sama, you are a Pureblood," he replied, being formal himself, "Please come this way."
I felt Aidou-senpai froze and he whispered into my ear, making the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
"He's a Pureblood?" he asked.
"Yes." I thought of something, "He can be meaner than Kaname-senpai, so let me go already!" I whispered back
"Nice try but no." He replied smugly.
Damn.
"Takuma-kun," Hikaru-kun continued, "You can call me Hikaru" He smiled kindly
"If you insist, Hikaru-kun. Now let's go to your room."
"Ah, Hikaru-kun!" I shouted
He turned his head around and smiled his agonizing smile. "Hai?"
"Ah…Eto…Do you want me to accompany you to your room?"
"There will be no need for you to do that, Akari-san…" He stared at the floor again, "Besides, it's getting very late, don't you need to-"
I reacted without thinking.
Like my brain took control of my entire body.
I ran to him…
"Hi-chan," I held his hands, He stared at me, mouth open, "What's wrong? Mama said everything will be alright remember? You promised not to be sad…"
As if me calling him 'Hi-chan' wasn't bad enough, my head just HAD to move in and my mouth just HAD to gently place a kiss on his cheek, much to everyone's surprise.
I swear I died from embarrassment.
My brain gave my body back to me. I gasped, letting go of his hand, he was still staring at me, like he was thinking 'Is it really possible?' My hands naturally covered my face in embarrassment.
Well, there goes my first kiss…
ARGHHH!! What is WRONG with me? I kissed a Pureblood Vampire that I barely knew! Thank God Zero and Yuuki-chan wasn't here, or they would tease-
"Aka-chan…Did you just…" Yuuki-chan stood in the doorway with Zero both of their mouths open.
Oh Crap.
"A-Akari…You…You j-…Just…" Zero stuttered, something that he never did.
Oh Crap, oh crap, oh crap!!!
Why is there this feeling that I want to vomit all of my guts out… like my stomach is knotted together tugging at my heart, my eyes were stinging painfully as they wanted to roll down my face.
I really really hate my life.
I should so turn emo. Like Zero. Life would be interesting…
My legs moved on their own again, but not for me to do something completely stupid but luckily, they took me out of the door, running for my life, the tears just betrayed me and streamed down my face, letting everyone see.
I peeked a last look when I ran out of the door and Hikaru-kun's hand was reached out and his mouth was still opened, he whispered something. Even though he was far away, his voice rang clearly through my head as if he was right next to me, speaking directly into my ear…
"Mi-chan…"
(Hakushou Hikaru POV)
"Mi-chan…"
My legs gave up on me as she ran away…
Takuma ran towards me shouting in my ear, asking if I was alright probably, but I couldn't hear a thing.
Is it really possible that she remembers?
But who bit her? There's only one Pureblood here in Cross Aca-
Kuran Kaname…
No…He wouldn't dare…
Would he?
I felt myself being lifted up. Possibly Takuma, again, I saw Zero run out of the door, after what seemed like half an hour since Mi-chan ran out.
Takuma carried me up the stairs with both of his hands, he carefully opened the door with one hand, walking into my luxurious dorm, but I wasn't thinking about it nor did I care. He placed me gently on to the bed, and I curled up into a ball, hugging my knees tightly on my side, my back facing him, crying silently, my tears making wet stains on to the silk bed sheets.
"Hikaru-kun…are you going to be fine?"
"mm…"
"Well then…I'll let you rest…"
"mm…"
"Goodnight, Hikaru-kun…"
He slowly turned around and walked out; he began to close the door, hesitant.
I rolled back over, facing him after drying my tears.
"Takuma-kun…"
His concerned frown turned back into his original happy smile.
I forced myself to smile again.
"Thank you…and good night" I whispered, my voice hoarse.
"It's no big deal, get well soon, Hakushou-sama" he chuckled
I threw the nearest pillow at him, trying to make the atmosphere light, but too broken down to aim. If Kazumi was here then everything would be so much ea-
I couldn't think about her, it hurts too much, being told by Aidou Hanabusa that he loved Kazumi was as if my heart was stabbed with thousands and millions of tiny needles and the fragments of my heart dangling on thin threads…
I need to send Takuma out of the room before he saw my tears fall. Seeing the tears of a Pureblood is exceedingly shameful.
"I told you to call me Hikaru!"
He laughed. Why could he laugh so easily at everything when I couldn't? Why am I still so broken down at what happened TEN years ago?
Why?
"Hai hai, well then, I won't be disturbing you Hikaru-kun."
He picked up the cushion and left it on the nearest chair to him and (finally) walked out of the room, shutting the door silently behind him.
Hearing his footsteps gradually disappear, I let myself break.
I cried.
I cried as if there was no tomorrow.
(No POV)
"Looks like it has already begun…" The chairman stood behind his desk, looking at the full moon out of his window. Kaname sat opposite his desk in a comfy looking chair, his feet planted firmly on the ground, one hand on his lap while his other, curled it's delicate fingers around the stem of the cup filled with blood tablet drink, his lips taking in the liquid, a small amount at a time. He waited for the Chairman to finish before protesting.
"Things will be interesting these few months…Ne, Kaname-kun?"
He settled his fake blood on a small table in front of him.
"Isn't this all too soon? You know she will be in pain." He asked tonelessly
"Well we can't stop this from happening, now can we?" The chairman asked him back
"'When one truly loves the one who's memory was taken away…'" Kaname quoted
"'…The memory will slowly come back on it's own will.' Meaning, Akari-san's body will be controlled by the home coming memories…She'll be doing things without thinking over it…" The Chairman finished
"So the only way for Akari to not endure the pain is either biting her or having Hikaru truly love another?" Kaname pressed on
"According to the legend, yes." He answered gravely.
They shared a silence, both lost in their thoughts. Kaname slowly reached for his drink again, brining the edge of the crystal cup to his soft lips again, he paused in the middle of a sip, sensing something was wrong. He quietly but gracefully put his drink back on to the table and got up on to his feet. As soon as he did that, the Chairman turned around, looking at him with soft eyes, as if he was going to make him understand something.
"Ne, Kaname-kun…" he started, "do you think we should warm Hikaru-kun about Akari-san's condition?"
"Why do we need to do such thing?" He inquired softly in his deep caring voice.
"Well…he might be mistaken for someone else biting Kazumi…"
"I'll talk to him about it, besides, judging on what Akari has done earlier tonight, he would be too confused to understand or even listen to anybody."
"Ah…" he replied, thoughtful about what Kaname had just said.
"I shall be heading back, I have a bad feeling about Aidou."
"Well then, I'll leave it to you. Thank you and see you soon."
Kaname walked slowly and elegantly towards the door, his hand rested on the shiny door handle for a brief second before turning it. As expected, the Chairman stopped him.
"Kaname-kun…did you tell Yuuki and Kiryuu-kun?" He asked
"Yes…although I think Zero has a problem handling the situation…It seems that he has grown very fond of Akari." His hands tightened around the doorknob, leaving dents, surprising himself.
"Is that so…" He murmured at Kaname, "Then things will be even more interesting…"
Trying to get his confused feeling sorted out, he wanted to get out of the room.
"Good night Chairman."
"Ah!" He replied, snapping out of his daze, "You have a pleasant night too…Kaname-kun."
A smile was tugging at the corner of his lips as he saw Kaname's reaction when he reported that Zero had grown fond of Akari. He did his best to hide it, trying not to anger the Pureblood.
The door shut quietly and he chuckled silently, turning around to look at the beautiful moon again.
Kaname shut the door quietly and he followed the moonlight that came through the floor-to-ceiling windows. His footsteps stopped as he caught the scent of Akari's freshly spilt blood.
'Hakushou Kazumi…' He thought, his eyes turning blood red, one of his hands pressed against the window while the other held his class books. 'A Pureblood vampire with a rare blood type…I wonder how she'll taste like…'
He left the window and continued walking down the deserted hallway.
'As if Yuuki's blood wasn't already tempting…' He smiled a rare smile, once again confused in his thoughts.
'Yes, things will be interesting… I should pay a little visit to her… An interesting girl indeed." His smile was still evident on his wonderful face. (AN: insert crazy fan girl squeal here…cus I did when I was rereading LOL)
(Fukuoka Akari POV)
I ran.
I ran and ran and ran, into the forest, leaving everything behind me, tears streaming down my face, blurring my vision, making my trip over unseen tree roots which was everywhere. The sharp rocks scratching my hands, knees and my chin, my blood oozing out of my skin. I stood up slowly supporting my weight against a tree in front of me was a beautiful river with big stones in middle making a natural line to the other side. The river matched perfectly with the full moon sitting on top of it.
I sighed and sat at the edge of the river, examining my hands and knees, they seemed to be scratched pretty badly. I washed my hands and knees in the ice cold water. It was autumn and all the leaves were a pretty orange and red colour. What did my memories contain when I was 5 and younger?
Hakushou Hikaru just sounded way too fami-
Hakushou Hikaru…
My brain raced back to the first ever memory of me waking up in a pool of blood snow all by myself…two level E vampires surrounded me… A young boy with a huge resemblance of a angel swooped down to protected me..
The angel…
-Flashback-
I woke up all alone, surrounded by red soft stuff.
'Blood' a voice rang through my head 'Vampires will drink your blood'
'What is a vampire? What is blood?' These questions repeated in my head again and again.
I looked up, two humans were standing there.
Their eyes were blood red. Were they 'Vampires'?
"Are you lost?" one asked.
"We can take you home…"
"But in return, we need to drain your sweet blood" they spoke together in perfect timing, laughing madly, they stared at me with their eyes, I was trying to look away but it was as if his gaze attracted everything, My hands went in front of me, giving me little protection, while I screamed my head off, wanting them to go away, tripping over my own clumsy feet. A elegant angel came flying in…
"Low life Vampires like you should not be draining blood off a 5 year old" He stated, which sounded oddly familiar.
"Wanna stop us? Bit young for a killer, how old are you?"
"Who are you anyways?"
"I bet you can't fight to save your own life. Anyways, we just need her blood" They talked continuously.
"Hakushou Hikaru, 5 years old, Pureblood Vampire. You two deserve to die." He plunged his hands into their stomach and they turned into ash.
-End of Flashback-
Hikaru-kun is…is him? All this time, he never told me… Confused with all my thought, I wiped the blood off my chin, my hands reaching for the water again, but the grass was too slippery and slipped.
My face was 2 inches above water as someone grabbed me by the waist just before I fell in. I turned around and had the biggest surprise of my life.
"K…Kaname-senpai!" I gasped as he pulled me back up, somehow I ended in his arms and he was hugging my protectively.
My cheeks felt like they were on fire.
Concern crossed his eyes, but his face didn't show it.
"You're bleeding…" he murmured, "What happened?"
He spoke with such gentleness it was impossible not to answer his question.
"I…I fell and the r…rocks scraped my arms and knees…" I was stuttering helplessly.
"And your chin…" His fingers wiped off some blood, his eyes turning pretty crimson and his head went down towards my neck licking some blood that had trickled down there, sending pleasurable shivers down my spine. The way he licked it was full of satisfaction, as if he was daring me to ask him for more.
He sighed softly, lifting his head back up as soon as he was done, his red eyes turned back to their normal mesmerizing maroon eyes.
"K-K-Kaname-senpai! Why w-were you-"
He looked straight into my eyes, my cheeks growing even more hot
"Your blood tempts many vampires…" he explained
My eyes widened, was he going to bite me?!?
"I licked your blood," he continued, "So that I know when you're in trouble. Do you understand?"
I blushed, he was helping me? Since when did he started helping people?
I nodded lightly and blushed even more as his hands slowly and delicately caressed my hair, his head leaning in and sniffing the strand he was holding. My heart fluttered due to the fact that his face was just an inch away from my face, and his fingers was lightly passing my cheek making me redden even more.
He looked back into my eyes once more.
"You should head back to your room. It's getting late." He smiled softly, a smile that I've never seen him use.
"Eh…okay" I looked down to the ground trying to hide the blush that had permanently moved in. He touched my cheek once more and left towards the darkest parts of the forest again. My face was probably redder than a tomato, I let out my rage.
"W-WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?" I shrieked making the birds in the trees fly away. "PERVERT! I-IM SUEING YOU FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT!" I grouched and mumbled random dissing words especially for Kaname.
I blushed again remembering how he caressed me. I shook my head hard.
The stones in the middle of the river was tempting to jump on. I carefully planted my feet on one of the rocks, stabilizing myself, preparing to leap to the neighboring rock. I lept, and being a retard as I am, I landed on the mossy part of the rock and guess what, I freaking slipped. I felt something hit my head and I saw my blood ooze out of somewhere making beautiful swirly patterns in the water. I smiled softly, watching it swirl around was very relaxing. Then everything started going fuzzy and out of focus. I frowned. I want my swirly image back. But with all my luck, everything blacked out.
The last thing I could only think of was,
"Screw Kaname…"
(Kiryuu Zero POV)
It's hard to find Akari. It always was. Always in her usual day dreaming mood, floating around, not caring about what's happening around her.
Yet that smile of hers always left me in awe, not knowing how to react when she smiled at me, making me look like an idiot just staring at her. Knowing that she was lost in this forest and that I was finding her without any reason at all pissed me off. Seeing her reach up and kissing that lowlife pureblood pissed me off even more.
Why the hell is SHE a pureblood TOO?!?
Why does it hurt so much inside?!? I don't give a shit about vampires…
But why is it that…who she is affects me differently from everyone else?
Its because you love her… Some stupid retarded voice inside me spoke.
"No, I DON'T!" anger showed in my voice as I refused to believe that I was in love with Akari. Uh...Kazumi. WHATEVER. She loves that Pureblood Kuran anyways doesn't she?
She was just a friend. A mere good friend.
With a mesmerizing smile… The way her hand brushed through her soft hair…the way she calls out my name…
Oh My God.
I cant be… I cant be in love with that midget!
B-but… Could I really be in love with her?
Told you so! That annoying voice rang through out my head.
"Oh Shut up! AKARI!! Where the hell ARE YOU?" I shouted desperately "That retarded Pureblood can't hurt you-"
And I smelt it.
Her sweet blood.
Did she hurt herself?
HOW?!?
I ran even faster, the blood lust showed in my eyes, but it was somehow easy to ignore when I knew Akari was in danger.
I could smell the blood. Lots of blood…
…Mixed with…water?
Is she drowning?
OH SHIT!
I could hear the running water somewhere up ahead with her blood mixed in it. What the hell is she doing to herself? Adrenalin pumped through my veins as I was scared that she was going to die. Why the hell would she jump in to a freaking river when it was only a mere 12 degrees?
I ran past the trees as I saw a glimpse of the one whom I hated the most.
"Kuran…" I whispered the name as my legs came to a halt.
"You sure you want to stop and talk to me? Zero…" He smiled slightly. That jerk. "I'm surprised that you can hold your thirst for blood…"
A small growl escaped from my throat.
"Oh, I saved her Zero, I didn't push her down. She fell on her own while jumping around on rocks…" he laughed quietly.
"And you didn't stop her? Kuran…You Bastard…" I growled again.
"I wanted to, Zero… Of course I wanted to. But then I sensed you running towards the river…" He frowned, "I had no chance but to let you save her."
That surprised me.
"Now why the hell would you, Kuran, want to save Akari?" I smirked, "Since when did you care about people?"
He smiled softly. Which was not he reaction I was hoping to receive.
And what made it worse was that he wasn't smiling like how he would smile at Yuuki every dusk…
"It's because I love her Zero…" He replied softly, "Now go save her Zero, she's waiting for you at the bottom of the river."
He walked away slowly yet elegantly much to my horror as I was still frozen with shock from what he just told me.
He turned his head back once more.
"Hurry Zero, or she will die at this rate," he frowned, "unless you want me to save her which I'll gladly do…"
Another growl slipped from my mouth and my legs took off again before I could even protest about letting him save my best friend. Well, one of them.
I reached the river but I couldn't see Akari anywhere. She wasn't at the bottom of the river like how that Bastard had said was she?
Oh Shit, Yes she was…
I could see her, and her blood. Yet I couldn't reach for her. I had no choice but to…
…Jump in…
I quickly pulled off my red tie and unbuttoned my heavy blazer without giving a second thought. I threw them down on to the half wet grass, kicked off me shoes and jumped in, carefully, not wanting to bang my head onto the rocks like how Akari did. I carefully lifted her out of the underwater jungle as I struggled for my breath. Our heads finally broke the surface as I gasped deeply again for air, but I couldn't hear any spluttering or coughing coming from Akari, in fact, she wasn't even making any noise at all since we resurfaced.
My heart made a rare painful lurch as I was afraid I was already too late.
I swam desperately for the muddy river bank dragging her carefully along avoiding as much rocks as possible so she won't earn more bruises and cuts. I gently lifted her out of the river and placed her delicately onto the river band before getting on it myself. I quickly unbuttoned her even heavier drenched blazer and threw it aside.
I opened her mouth slightly preparing myself to well…um…be an oxygen tank and give her air…when, thankfully, she started spluttering and coughing. I sighed in relief. Her breathing returned normal again, her heartbeat strengthened. I slowly picked her up bridal style, her head rolled around uncomfortably until she found a comfortable sport near my chest.
I felt my face grow warmer every second that passed.
I ignored it and started heading back to where the commotion started, so Yuuki wouldn't have to go all frantic. I left our clothes back at the river bank. I would collect them later when Akari was in a much more stabilized state.
"Zero! What happened to Akari-chan?!?" Yuuki started pestering me as soon as I re-entered the Night Class Dorms.
"She was being stupid and fell inside a river and banged her head against a rock." I frowned, looking for a suitable place to put Akari down.
"Kiryuu-kun, you can place her on my bed in my room" Kuran smirked from where he was standing.
Another growl escaped from my mouth. Yuuki pulled at my thin wet shirt.
"I guess there's no other choice, Kuran-senpai…" I muttered quietly trying to control my anger.
(Hakushou Hikaru POV)
"What?!?" I shouted, startled, dry tears still evident on my face, "Kazumi, she…got hurt?!?"
Had I been so stupid in crying not to notice the strong scent of my own sister's blood?!?
"It would be better if you don't shout, Hikaru." Kaname said lightly, expressionless, leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed.
I ignored him as I scrambled out of my bed, trying to untangle myself from all the silky bed sheets. I rushed pass Kaname, following the strong scent of Kazumi's blood. The sweet scent, the blood that I've been thirsting for years, the only blood that I needed to keep me alive instantly made my eyes red, my throat dry. My fangs naturally extended as I got closer and closer to Kaname's room. I bit down on my own lips and licked up some of my own spilt blood. It barely soothed me. I stopped running when I reached his room, facing his closed door.
I buried my face in my pale hands, trying to block out my lust for Kazumi's blood. The blood lust no longer showed in my eyes, my throat became less dry and my fangs stopped extending and shortened a bit.
I stood up straight again, sighed and slowly opened the door.
Kazumi was lying in the middle of the bed with Zero sitting beside her staring at her deeply.
My heart lurched painfully.
Zero turned around, and smiled a tiny smile while he got off the bed, gently gesturing for me to go towards her.
I walked slowly towards the fragile body of my sister on the bed and sat where Zero sat a second ago. My body began moving on its own, wanting to get closer to her. I gave in to my own temptations as I gently reached for her hand and tightly pressed it against my face, sniffing in the sweet scent that I've missed so much.
"Kazumi…" I whispered painfully.
(Fukuoka Akari POV)
You know how people say your whole life flashes in front of you when you die?
Well, that happens.
Yet everything was focused on Hikaru-kun's face.
Him stabbing the level E's over and over again.
Somehow Zero, Yuuki and Kaname were in the snowy background with Hikaru-kun.
And Hikaru-kun was stabbing them.
Their blood was oozing all out and they were slowly disintegrating. I ran over and tried to help them get up before they completely turned into dust. I turned my head back to look at Hikaru-kun. I let out a whimper as I saw that his fangs were extended, eyes crimson. I gave a look of pure terror. He smiled at me, eyes redder than ever.
"Akari…" Hikaru-kun whispered softly "Come to me…I promise I wont hurt you…"
His fangs visibly extended a lot more.
I stumbled back and was lying next to Zero who was clutching his chest which had a giant odd shaped hole.
I gasped in shock
"Z…ZERO!" I stuttered helplessly
"A…kari…" He moaned painfully, "R-run...away… before its…too late…"
As soon as he said that, his face started crackling, leaving small dust particles on the bloody snow. I looked over at where Yuuki and Kaname were. They were already dust…
"A…Akari…" Zero muttered for the last time before his whole body turned in to dust and flew away with the strong wind.
My eyes shot open.
Someone was holding my hand.
It was cold and unfamiliar.
Too cold.
I shouted out the first name I could think of. He had to be fine.
He had to be Healthy, Happy and Alive.
"ZERO!"
I sat up straight.
The person holding my hand was not Zero.
It was Hikaru-kun.
"Akari!" Zero shouted back, rushing over to the bed. I grabbed his face, my breathing still ragged, my eyes wide, they were starting to fill up with tears. "Zero…!" I whispered frantically, staring straight into his pretty amethyst eyes.
I looked around his face. There was no cracks, no fallen face bits. There was no large weird hole in his chest.
"Shh, Akari, it's okay…Everything's okay…" Zero murmured comfortingly as he held me tightly in his embrace.
I sobbed silently into his chest
"I…I thought you had died…"
"Pfft… Baka. I thought You had died…What were you thinking? Playing stepping stones in this weather…"
"It's her favourite game ever since she was little…" A voice beside us said.
We turned around, surprised.
"Ah…H-Hikaru-kun…" I said softly, blushing.
"It's nice to know that you're fine now…Akari-san…" He slowly got up from the bed and started walking towards the door.
"Hi-Hikaru-kun!" I shouted after him
He turned around smiling.
"A-arigatou…for saving my life…when I was little…" My voice got softer and softer near the end of he sentence, when my face got redder and redder.
I let go of Zero and faced him properly.
Hikaru-kun's face of shock turned into a genuine smile, which somehow made me blush even harder. I laid back on my tummy, burying my face into the unknown pillow which held an intoxicating scent. I sniffed it all in, not wanting to forget it.
"Akari?" Zero asked beside me, "Are you okay? You're not trying to suffocate yourself in Kuran's pillow are you?"
My head shot up from the pillow immediately
"K-K-K-K-K-K-K-KANAME-SENPAI'S PILLOW?!?" I shouted. Some part of me wanted to go back and sniff in the wonderful scent.
Why was it so hard to resist?
I was on his bed. His beautiful scent was everywhere.
"Good to see that you're awake now, Akari." A musical voice near the door said.
I turned around in shock.
"K-kaname-senpai! Um…Thank you for um…letting me sleep on your bed…" I said blushing even harder now, remembering what happened before I fell into the river.
He smiled softly, "That's okay…You should be more careful with yourself."
"Ah…Hai…Thanks for worrying about me…" I replied softly.
"Let's go back to the Day Class Dorms, Akari…" Zero muttered.
"IIE!" I cried, finally giving in to my temptation, sleeping back down on the bed, covering myself with the silky bed sheets, sniffing in the wonderful scent again.
"Oi! I'm already letting you skip patrol tonight! Let's go!" Zero argued as he started to get angry.
Why not play around? I thought as I smirked into the pillow.
"Oyasuminasai Zero~!" I sang]
"Don't make me tickle you…" He threatened.
Sucks that he knows all my weak spots… I poked my head out from the blankets and stuck a tongue out at him.
"Go ahead, see if I care!" I tried to sound convincing, yet my voice betrayed me and trembled as I spoke.
"Okay then, I will." He started edging over to me.
I gave a short scream and scrambled to the corner of the bed, trying to stay out of his reach, still hugging to the pillow preciously.
"Okay, Okay!! I'll go! Mou…Hidoi!!" I pouted.
Zero sighed in frustration. "You asked for it…It would have been easier if you just came with me in the first place. Sa, Ikou."
He got up from the bed.
I stared at the pillow, sniffing it again. I didn't want to let it go.
"Okay…I'll leave." I smirked, "On ONE condition!"
"I'm already letting you skip patrol and that's not enough?!?" He protested, "What the hell do you want now?"
"I want to keep this pillow," My smirk widened
"Eh?!? Akari, don't joke around. Let's go."
I pouted again. "Not leaving until you say 'yes' Zero-chan!"
"There's nothing special about that pillow! Now let's go!!" His eyebrow twitching in annoyance visibly.
"Onegai Zero!!" I pleaded him
He sighed in defeat. "Kuran-senpai…" he muttered softly in a dangerous voice, "Fukuoka-san will be taking this pillow."
Kaname-senpai smiled, "I don't mind. Sleep well…Akari." He was leaning casually against the door frame, his shirt halfway open revealing his smooth chest.
"Lets go Fukuoka-san…Oi Akari! What are you drooling at?!?"
"EH?!?" I snapped out of my daze, "I-I'M NOT DROOLING ZERO! MOU! AND DON'T CALL MY 'FUKUOKA-SAN'!"
"che…" Zero mumbled quietly, walking out of the door.
I followed him while giving him punches that barely affected him.
"Oyasumi, Hikaru-kun." I smiled at him as I passed by him.
"Oyasuminasai, Akari-san" He smiled back, replying politely.
We passed by Kaname-senpai.
"Oyasuminasai, Kaname-senpai." I blushed, "Thank you again!"
He smiled in return, making my heart do flips. I took a big sniff when I passed right next to him. Zero turned around facing my perverted smile that was clearly plastered on my face.
"Stop being such a scent pervert, Akari…" He mumbled.
"EH?!? I'm not sniffing anything!" I blushed, "Why do you always accuse me doing stuff that I don't do?" I mumbled, burying my face into the precious pillow I was hugging tightly in my arms.
"Yea right…" He replied back
My head couldn't help but continuously think about Kaname-senpai and his revealed chest. I smirked into my pillow once more and thought…
Dammit…Why is he so damn hot?!?
