After I regained most of my strength Kaname slowly told me what he wanted. He wanted me to help him regain control over the Vampire Society. Apparently he killed all the members of the senate and what-not. So the society is in an uproar and after that it all sounded like, "blah blah blah." I was nearly zoned out until I heard a name pop up. Yuki. Who was this Yuki? Please don't tell me that he loves her. I just couldn't take it. I know that it's been a few thousand years but that's not really that long for a Pureblood. But as he finished with his explanation on why he woke me up my heart had broken once again. He said it was a promise that he was keeping to Haruka and Juri Kuran. The promise was to protect and one day marry their precious Yuki. But of course I couldn't say no. Never could I say no to this man. So I resolved to agreeing. I hate myself for doing it but I always get lost in those eyes and agree to anything for him before I can have time to think about it.

(Kaname's POV)

Finally, after all these years of searching for her, I found her. I found my precious Amaya. She's just as beautiful as ever. Oh how I ache to feel her warmth again.

'No. Stop it.' I think to myself. 'I've broken her heart too many times. I don't deserve her anymore. Besides I'm engaged to Yuki.'

I keep telling myself this. But I can never seem to stop admiring how beautiful she is. How the dim light hits her dark red hair and pale, creamy skin perfectly. How, when she opens her eyes they will be the prettiest shade of hazel. Or how she is still wearing the ring I gave her. No. I cannot think about any of this right now. I have a promise to Haruka and Juri. Why should that matter? I have broken the most important promise I've ever made. Is it because I feel the guilt and the pain of it every waking moment of my life? Or is it because I want to show her I can keep a promise.

'If so, you're doing it all wrong.' I think to myself.

As I watch her lying there I keep thinking about how I so dearly wish I could go back to the day I betrayed her and take it back. It's too late now. The damage is done. The best I can do is to try to make her forgive me.

'Like that will happen.' I sigh inwardly. Am I my own eternal tormentor? I can't think of that now. I just have to get this over with. So we can get her being furious stage over with.

'I deserve whatever she throws at me or does to me. I told her I loved her and that we were going to get married and be together for all eternity. I didn't keep that promise so I don't even deserve to be in her presence right now. Or ever for that matter.'

Ok enough with the torment. For now at least. I have to do this. She will be furious twice over when I wake her up. It's so selfish of me to wake her, but I just can't seem to help myself.

(A few hours later)

(Amaya's POV)

I am now at the Kuran mansion. I don't want to be, and yet at the same time I do. Kaname leaves me in the hands of a girl, Ruka I think her name was, to get dress more appropriately for the century. As Ruka decided on a look for me I thought back to that time before I went into my slumber.

I was walking down the cobbled walkway. I was reeling over what Kaname had wanted to talk to me about. I was practically in love with him but that couldn't possibly make a difference to him. I kept walking until I reached my destination. It was next to a pond that we had found together. I was reeling even more. Then I saw him sitting there on a stone bench. God, he looked so beautiful. I couldn't possibly imagine what he wanted. But as I approached him he stood up and turned around. He looked me dead in the eyes and smiled. It was rare to see him smile, so I made sure I would remember this. He motioned for me to sit down with him. When I did he turned to me and said, 'I do not know how to put exactly what I am feeling into words right now.'

When he said this I got a little worried. 'What is it Kaname?'

'It's just I want to make a promise with you.'

'What is it?' I was started to get a little elated. He wants to make a promise with me?

'I...I have been thinking about how I feel about you.' Oh my god. He can't be. 'I... I have decided that I...I love you, Amaya.'

I was stunned. I wasn't replying fast enough, he started to get a disappointed look in his eyes. I have to say something now.

'I love you too, Kaname.' I could see his sigh of relief as he smiled. I was ecstatic on the inside. I could not believe this. 'So this promise?'

'I want us to get married one day, Amaya. I want us to be together for forever, literally. So promise me this. Promise me that we will get married.'

I couldn't help but smile. 'Of course, Kaname.'

He once again smiled. As he did so he pulled out a ring.

'I want you to wear this ring until the day that we are married.'

He slipped it on my finger, and looked down at it. It was a beautiful hand carved shell ring.

I was brought back to the present by a knock on the door. It opened revealing the one person I have been dreading to meet. Her name was, Yuki Kuran.
