"Good evening…Tsu-chan."
Kaname ducked the lamp that was thrown at him, hearing it shatter behind him. He smirked at Tsuki and stepped into the bedroom, looking around. Tsuki had obviously done some redecorating as the ceiling was a miniature version of the Sistine Chapel. The walls were black and red, same with the bed covers and curtains. Blood and death.
Tsuki glared at the vampire and threw himself onto the bed, picking up the book he was reading. From time to time, he did enjoy doing things the way humans did. Like getting up to answer the door and using telekinesis to throw lamps at smug purebloods that overstepped a line they didn't know was there. Though, Kaname knew the line was there but he was used to doing things his way.
"What did you wanna talk about, Kaname? I got stuff to do."
"Oh, such as?"
Tsuki glanced up, indifference on his face. "Jerking off to the thought of your sister. What else could I possibly be doing? How about, my job?"
"You're being called away?"
"Yup. All you need to do is continue being persistent with Zero and that'll make him happy and it'll make Yuuki happy, also. Oh and you, too…I guess." Tsuki lowered his eyes to the page and the lamp un-shattered itself and sat on the bedside chest again.
Kaname blinked. Demons were meant to stay until they had fulfilled their part of the deal. If there was a demon being summoned, it would move onto the next closest one if the closest one was busy. So why was Tsuki leaving? The demon sat up and raised an eyebrow at him. Kaname didn't understand it. There wasn't any reason for Tsuki to leave.
"My niece will be taking over in my place. She'll be posing as a seventeen year old and I swear she has a battery up her ass. She's also a vampire and as thick as six bricks." Tsuki looked around as the bedroom began to change. "And she's here."
Kaname's nose wrinkled up at the strong scent of perfume that was invading his nose. He held his hand up and glanced around as the coloring changed. He looked at Tsuki, wanting to know why the demon was leaving. There was something that wasn't right. Kaname wasn't exactly sure about how demons ran things but he knew enough to know that Tsuki was looking for a reason to leave.
"Uncle Tsu-Tsu!"
Tsuki groaned. Another reason he hated family. "In here, Mimi-chan."
Kaname raised an eyebrow as a girl stepped into the room and ran over to the bed, throwing herself over the demon laying there. He bit back a growl, which was directed at the girl. He shook his head mentally, wondering what in the world was wrong with him when Tsuki stood up, his niece still clinging to him. Kaname regarded the girl coolly. He wasn't that interested in her but knew he had to at least know her name.
"Kuran-sama, this is my niece, Alice Wells. For her stay here, she'll be under the alias Minako Kurashiki."
"What's up!" Minako grinned and waved to Kaname. "It's so awesome to meet someone that my Uncle Tsuki holds in such high respect! I thought you'd be bigger, though. Oh well. So, tell me, what do you vamps do for fun around here? Oh, I remember now! Uncle Tsuki, I'll be needing the contract."
"There is no contract, Mimi-chan."
"Eh? You're doing this out of the goodness of your non-existent heart? Has the apocalypse hit already? Ne, I guess it doesn't matter! But what is with this gloomy décor? Uncle Tsuki, I thought you had liven up a bit! This is just horrible!" Minako smirked as her eyes moved around the room.
Tsuki grabbed his annoying, little niece by the throat and pinned her to a wall. "Change anything to pink and I will gut you on the spot."
"I get it, Uncle!" Minako had been gutted once before and it wasn't as pleasurable as she had thought it would.
Kaname turned. "Tsuki-kun, I would like to speak with you before you leave, if possible." He didn't wait for an answer and left the room, closing the door. It was going to be interesting explaining that one to the rest of the vampires.
Kaname's nose wrinkled as he found that Minako's perfume was throughout the entire building. He had to wonder if she sprayed it on or filled a bath with it and just splashed around. If she was as thick as six bricks, as Tsuki described her, it somehow wouldn't surprise him. He went to his room and sat on the bed. It was one thing to deal with the son of Satan but it was another, entirely, to deal with Minako. There was something that Tsuki wasn't revealing.
Kaname's head dropped when there was a scream. With a silent sigh, he got to his feet and left his room. I'm never going to catch a break, am I? He went downstairs and saw that Aidou, Ruka, Shiki, Kain, Rima and Takuma were there, along with Minako and Tsuki. He didn't know which of the girls had screamed and Tsuki pointed to Aidou in answer to Kaname's unspoken question.
"You things breed?" Ruka demanded, staring at Minako like the girl had two heads.
"Of course we do, Bitchpants McCrabby." Tsuki glanced at his niece, who was staring at Ruka in awe. "Don't even think about idolizing that vampire, Minako. It'll be very bad for you because we don't want you to turn out to be a stuck-up skank that is permanently PMSing."
Ruka gritted her teeth and shot the demon her best glare. Said demon was staring right at her as he spoke and she looked away. It wouldn't end well for her if she were to piss off the son of the devil and knowing that fact pissed her off even more. She was sick of powerful people showing up to the school and she wasn't allowed to harm them in anyway.
"Anyway, Mimi-chan, I'll leave everything in your capable hands for the day or two that I'm away." Tsuki turned to Kaname and nodded. "Oh…" Tsuki paused half-way up the stairs and gazed down at the vampires, mainly Aidou and Ruka. "…if anyone even thinks of harming her, let's just say my father isn't the only one that can open a hole to hell." He continued up, knowing they wouldn't listen to him.
"Don't think about harming her or you'll have to answer to me," Kaname warned. The others nodded and Takuma stepped up the girl, introducing himself. Kaname followed Tsuki to the vampire's bedroom and closed the door. "Why are you leaving? What reason do you have to hand over the deal to your niece?"
"My reasons are my own. If she becomes too much of a hassle, attach something shiny on a stick to her shirt and tie her to one of the trees. She'll keep herself entertained for months." Tsuki turned his back to Kaname, ready to pack his belongings and leave when the pureblood appeared behind him. "I'm not going to tell you why I'm leaving, Kaname."
"Can you at least tell me why you've burdened us with your simple niece, then?"
"That wasn't a nice thing of you to say about someone you don't even know." Tsuki turned around, his face impassive and Kaname found himself wishing he was able to get under the demon's skin the way Taiyou and his father had. Anything to make the demon angry after that etiquette lesson. "I chose her because she wouldn't ask any questions. She is simple but she knows what the deal is and she'll do whatever she can in her power to make it work while I'm away."
Kaname nodded and stepped back from the demon. "One last question. Is she really that simple?"
Tsuki raised an eyebrow and opened the door, stepping to the side. Kaname looked out and saw Minako staring at one of the candles that were lit. He nodded at the demon, who smirked and left the room, closing the door. He heard Minako ask what happened to the wax and if it was possible that the fire ate it. Tsuki responded softly to her, explaining how it worked and Kaname opened the door, watching the tenderness the demon showed his niece. It was the same gentle grace that Tsuki showed Yuuki.
Kaname chuckled to himself and continued to watch. Tsuki's softer side wasn't something that was often witnessed by the living as the demon did have trust issues. Kaname remembered asking the demon if he trusted him and Tsuki shook his head, saying those he did trust were dead. Kaname was used to being feared and having the trust and respect of those around him. Zero changed everything and Tsuki wasn't helping, either.
Tsuki had said that Minako was a vampire but she had the scent of a demon. Suddenly, the son of Satan looked at him, his eyes twinkling with an emotion Kaname couldn't place but the pureblood got the message the demon sent him. Kaname would find out soon enough what Tsuki had meant by 'vampire' and at the same time, Kaname was a little worried by it. It wasn't that he didn't trust Tsuki – it was just that he didn't trust Tsuki.
Kaname smirked when Tsuki kissed Minako's forehead, telling her not to run into walls because she had a physical form. Tsuki's clothing changed and a suitcase appeared beside him. He straightened Minako's shirt before he picked up the suitcase and turned, heading down the stairs. He paused and without turning told Kaname to cut classes short by about an hour and go for a walk. There was a horse that wanted to see him. Kaname raised an eyebrow and Tsuki continued.
It was a natural reflex for Kaname to think of not doing what someone suggested. On the other hand, while Tsuki was known for toying with people, he was also known for toying with people with the intent of making something interesting happening. If Tsuki suggested going to the stables an hour before classes were over, Kaname would consider it. He glanced at Minako, who was grinning at him. Her big, bright blue eyes sparkled.
"Uncle Tsu-Tsu is right, Kuran-san. I won't force you to do it because it isn't your deal or anything like that! But I think it would be good for you to do it." Minako turned and flounced off into Tsuki's room, closing the door.
What a strange person, Kaname thought as he closed the door and got dressed for classes. While he was buttoning up his vest he paused and looked out the window. The only being that could possibly call Tsuki away was his father. Was that why Tsuki packed and left? It would explain a lot. All the secrets the demon had kept and why he was actually leaving, instead of telling whoever had summoned him to drop dead. And it would explain why Tsuki was going to whoever it was instead of making them come to him. Kaname wouldn't have minded seeing Lucifer again. With a smile, Kaname finished dressing and picked up his books.
An hour and a quarter before classes were scheduled to conclude, Kaname excused himself, knowing Takuma would pick up his books and take them back to the dorm. He left the school building and headed towards the stables. Kaname had given himself an extra fifteen minutes and was grateful for the fact when he ran into Yuuki. She tilted her head and stepped up to him, looking around.
"I didn't think that classes were over already, Kaname-senpai," she said quietly.
Kaname frowned slightly and studied the prefect. She seemed upset about something. "They aren't, Yuuki. Are you okay? You seem a little sad."
Yuuki blinked and shook her head, grinning. "I'm fine, Kaname-senpai! Can I ask who the new girl was? I don't remember seeing her in the Night Class before and Tsuki-senpai was missing, too."
"He didn't give me any reason, either, Yuuki." Kaname ruffled her hair tenderly. "He won't be gone long."
Yuuki blushed. "I suppose something important had to have happened. Maybe there was a problem with his dad." Lucifer's words rang through her mind again and her blush deepened.
Kaname's eyes softened. "Just keep doing what you are, Yuuki. Everything will work out, I promise."
Yuuki smiled and nodded. "Of course, Kaname-senpai! Have a good night!" Yuuki ran off, stopped, waved and went on again.
Kaname watched her go. Her energy was amazing and continued on his way to the stables. He masked his presence, not wanting to alert Zero, especially if Tsuki had suggested that Kaname be there, something had to be happening. The wooden structure came into view and Kaname froze. Zero was leaning against the entrance, panting. His jacket, vest and tie had been removed.
"Damn it!" Kaname heard Zero growl as the prefect punched the frame he was leaning against. "Fucking vampire!"
Kaname raised an eyebrow as he watched. He held back a chuckle as he figured out what Zero was pissed about. You can't continue to repress that sort of thing, Zero, Kaname taunted in his mind as Zero began undoing his belt. The Hunter hesitated and Kaname did a quick scan of the area. Yuuki was nowhere near them and there was nothing else, either. Thankfully Minako wasn't buzzing around somewhere. So there wasn't any reason for Zero to have stopped.
Kaname's eyes widened as he realized that Zero was speaking softly to himself. "Damn it, Kaname. Where are you when I need you?"
Kaname raised an eyebrow. At least Zero wanted him for something and if it meant being able to touch the Hunter, then the pureblood would take it. He didn't care if Zero was using him as a means of getting off but there had to be something else. Kaname lowered his eyes. There was something else as Tsuki wouldn't have sent him there just to help Zero release some tension. Without thinking, Kaname slipped into Zero's mind.
A few seconds later, Kaname pulled back. So, that's what it was. Straightening his jacket, Kaname walked up to the stables, letting his aura out. Zero looked up and cursed, lowering his head again. That wouldn't do, in Kaname's eyes. He placed a finger under Zero's chin and lifted his head. He lent forward, pressing their lips together but not doing anything else. If Zero wanted more he would have to be the one that instigated it.
Kaname pulled back and gazed at Zero blankly. The emotions swirling in the lilac irises was astounding and Kaname was certain he actually saw a hint of sadness as well before Zero lent forward. His nimble fingers made quick work of undoing the buttons on Kaname's jacket and vest, pushing the clothing off the vampire's shoulders. His tie was next and the shirt.
Kaname lowered his eyes as he felt Zero's tongue on his throat, moving down. It found that sensitive spot and the pureblood sighed. Kaname undid Zero's shirt and ran his hands over the uncovered torso, enjoying the soft, warm skin. Kaname smirked as Zero pinned him to the other side of the entrance, biting his shoulder. Zero lapped at the small wounds his teeth had made.
Kaname stared at the other side of the frame as Zero's hot mouth made its way down his body. "Say my name," he ordered.
Zero glanced up. "Kuran."
Kaname raised an eyebrow and gripped Zero's shoulders. Before the Hunter had a chance to blink, the prefect found himself facing the wood of the stable entrance. His shirt had been removed and Kaname's hand was down his pants. The other hand held his wrists behind his back. "You said it before, Zero. Say it again," he commanded, gripping the hard flesh.
Zero clenched his jaw as Kaname's hand went about bringing him pleasure. "Kuran," he grounded out.
Kaname's eyes flashed and Zero found his pants and boxers around his knees. The Hunter shuddered as the pureblood nuzzled the nape of his neck and licked it. "You know what I want to hear, Zero. I can leave you to finish yourself off. You don't want that, do you?" Kaname tightened his grip to emphasize his point and Zero's sharp intake of air was more than enough proof.
Zero tensed even more at the threat. He wasn't going to break for the damn vampire, though. "Ask…nicely." If he had to get off by his own hand, Zero didn't have a problem with that. It wouldn't be the first time since that night he'd done it.
Kaname nipped the muscle that connect the neck and shoulder, enjoying the small moan that slipped out of Zero's mouth. "Please say my name, Zero," Kaname said, allowing Zero to have control for now. His hand moved faster.
Zero mentally cursed. He was hoping that the vampire wouldn't ask him nicely and it was the only reason he had said it. "…Kana…" Zero trailed off when he caught the scent of the vampire's blood. He glared over his shoulder. "What are you doing, Kuran?"
"You know what I can do to you, Zero. You know what I can make you do." Kaname cut his index and middle finger on his fangs and slipped them into Zero's mouth. The Hunter's tongue rolled around the limbs and Kaname bit the boy's exposed shoulder, being sure not to break the skin. "Say my name," he ordered again as he removed his fingers.
"Ka…na…" Zero's eyes widened dramatically when he felt one of those fingers around a certain area he didn't think they would go to so soon. "What…?"
"Trust me," Kaname murmured into the Hunter's ear, letting his tongue flick the lobe and slipping his finger all the way in.
Zero thrashed, wanting to get away from it. It wasn't as bad as he was expecting but at the same time, he hadn't wanted whatever sexual relationship they had with each other to escalate that quickly. He ignored Kaname's words of telling him to calm down and continued to fight the vampire's hold over him. There was a chuckle and Zero stopped, looking over his shoulder. He blinked when he realized that Kaname had both fingers in. When had that happened?
"So predictable, Zero." Kaname moved them around. "Are you in any discomfort?"
Yes! Zero's mind raged but his body reacted on its own and he shook his head. There was only a slight annoyance but it wasn't anything that Zero could overlook as Kaname's thumb rubbed over the head of his erection. The fingers moved slowly and Zero took in a shuddering breath as Kaname ran his nails along the underside of his sex. He rested his forehead against the frame, taking deep breaths.
Zero's head snapped back and a cry left his mouth as something was struck. Kaname began stroking him again and the Hunter couldn't stop the moans that were spilling out of his mouth. In the back of his mind he came to the conclusion his body would be nicknamed Judas as his hips bucked into the hand and then down onto the fingers. Before he could stop himself, he muttered the vampire's name, pleasure lacing through the syllables.
Kaname released Zero's wrists and the Hunter gripped the frame. He lent around and kissed the corner of Zero's mouth, who turned his head towards the soft touch. Kaname covered the Hunter's mouth his own and slipped his tongue in. He groaned quietly as Zero's tongue danced with his. He pulled back and trailed wet kisses along Zero's jaw to his ear and nuzzled it.
Zero whimpered and mentally kicked himself for his traitorous body's reaction to everything the pureblood was doing to him. He said the vampire's name a few more times, feeling the lips on his ear curve up. Zero had no doubt that the vampire was smirking over his wanton display of lust. The slight humiliation he felt only seemed to add on with the pleasure that Kaname was dealing him.
"Come," Kaname growled into the ear, the smirk still on his lips as Zero moaned out his approval.
Kaname's pace picked up and Zero finally got control over his body, biting his lip as his body began tensing. He closed his eyes, hoping to picture someone else but like all the times he had jerked off, all he saw was Kaname. He wanted to see the vampire over him, lust swirling in those wine hues. He wanted to hear the pureblood lose composure and actually moan and lose himself for once. Instead of being so painfully restricted.
"Kaname…" Zero whispered before his body tensed up completely and he came. His hands gripped the frame and it began to crack and splinter. He let go of the wood and collapsed back against Kaname. The vampire wrapped his arms around his shaking form.
Kaname held Zero close, knowing he probably wouldn't get another chance. "I'm sorry if I rushed you, Zero." Kaname kissed the top of the boy's head.
Zero calmed down but didn't move. He wasn't going to openly admit that Kaname's arms felt nice. They gave him a safe feeling. "You played me. You let me think I had control over the situation."
"You've never been in control. You didn't want to break for me but for you're already broken. Will you – What the hell?"
Kaname and Zero got to their feet, Zero pulling his pants up. They both quickly dressed and ran in the direction of the aura they were sensing. Whatever Kaname had to say could wait. Kaname stopped when he realized it was Tsuki. The demon wasn't happy and the vampire got the feeling that Tsuki didn't know what happiness was anymore.
Kaname and Zero waited by the gates to the Moon Dorm and Minako appeared. She looked around and sighed. "Oh boy…We're in trouble in now. I think Grandpa upset Uncle Tsuki and if Uncle is upset then the rest of us will be as well."
"He went to see his father?" Kaname inquired and Minako nodded. Of course, it didn't take a genius to figure out that if Tsuki had been called away and he returned angry that it was the work of his father.
"Yup! Grandpa wanted to speak to him about something and whatever that something was seemed to have pissed him off. I hope he doesn't set me on fire like he did the last time." Minako shifted nervously and looked up as a figured walked towards them.
"So he sets anyone on fire…" Kaname mused to himself. "Zero, you should probably continue on with your duties. Kurashiki-kun, you should probably return to class. I'll speak with your uncle about whatever happened and take the force of his anger."
Minako grinned and disappeared. Zero hesitated and glanced at the pureblood. "Are you sure about that, Kuran? He doesn't look pissed off so maybe you shouldn't try to make him look it and just leave him alone until he cools down."
"He probably needs someone to vent on, Zero. I can handle anything he throws at me." Kaname blinked as a tomato exploded on his face. The juice dripped down onto his uniform and he forced a very tight smile. "I can handle anything he throws at me." Kaname ducked as a watermelon headed towards him and it splattered on the gates.
Zero nodded and walked off. He didn't want to be around when buildings became part of what Kurenai was going to throw at the vampire. He might not be fully happy with his existence but he didn't want to die and leave Yuuki and Kaname alone. Wait…Kaname? Where had that come from? Something fluttered in Zero's stomach and his heart thumped in his chest. Whatever. It was probably the aftereffects of the orgasm he had.
Kaname watched as Tsuki walked past him and through the gates. The gates opened when Kaname turned to them and he stepped through, following Tsuki up to the demon's room. Kaname loitered by the closed door, not entirely sure on how to approach Tsuki about his current emotional state. There were the sounds of things shattering and Kaname invited himself in. Tsuki was on the floor beside his destroyed bed, a lit cigarette hanging from his lips.
"I didn't know you smoked."
"I don't. I just felt that that explosion was worthy enough of a smoke afterwards." Tsuki glanced around the obliterated room. "Kind of like how Zero wanted a smoke after what you did to him. He thought it was so good that he would slowly kill himself."
Kaname smirked. "I'm assuming daddy did something irritate you, Tsu-chan." Kaname went over to the bed and picked up a sheet, using the material to wipe the drying tomato from his face.
"I have a favor to ask of you, Kaname. I know you've already thought of what I can do to repay the other favor." Tsuki crushed the cigarette out on the floor but didn't stand. Instead, he blew the small bits of ash off his jeans as he waited for the vampire.
Kaname raised an eyebrow. "And what would this favor be? Did you want me to join you on a trip to hell for a family dinner?"
"Along with Yuuki and Zero."
Kaname's eyes widened a fraction. "You can't take mortals to hell."
Tsuki snorted. "Zero is an ex-human, not exactly a mortal and we both know that Yuuki isn't a human. You forget that my father invented pulling the wool over someone's eyes, Kaname. You can fool everyone else, Yuuki included but you can't fool the devil and his family."
"I also forgot how insufferable you are. Why should the three of us join you in hell for a family dinner? Were you allowed to invite a friend or three?" Kaname watched as the room began to repair itself.
"No. I just wanted you guys there. I should have known that you would be mean about it all and ignore something I want." Tsuki sighed sadly and closed his eyes.
"I'm not going to fall for that, Tsuki."
"I wasn't acting."
Kaname blinked. Damn it. Was that really how Tsuki viewed him? No, that couldn't be right. Tsuki had said he saw him as a friend and no-one said that about their friends so it had to be an act. Or was what Tsuki said about seeing him as a friend an act? There was a smirk and Kaname bit back a growl. That damn demon. Kaname could see only one good thing about Tsuki being around and that was that the demon at least kept his sense sharpened.
"I thought you didn't go to family dinners."
"Satan blackmailed me into it."
Kaname's brow creased slightly. "What could he possibly use against you?"
"Making Taiyou a member of the family again," Tsuki lied easily. He wasn't going to reveal the real reason behind why he was going to attend a Sunday night dinner with the family. Kaname would just laugh at him.
That would be enough reason to get Tsuki's ass down there. Kaname liked the way the devil thought and the tricks he used to get his indifferent son to bend to his will. It was amazing and Kaname got the feeling he could learn a thing or two from the demon's father. On the other hand, there was something that Kaname knew that he was certain Tsuki didn't know. He went down on one knee before the demon and stared into the hell creature's eyes.
Tsuki glanced up at the vampire. "I already know. I'm not going to do anything about it, though."
"I don't think this is something you can ignore, Tsuki," Kaname said softly, placing a hand on a denim clad knee.
"It'll be like everyone else I've ever had feelings for. I can't afford to fall in love, Kaname. It wouldn't be fair on my partner, anyway."
"You don't know –"
"Yes, I do. It's one-sided, Kaname."
"No, it isn't, Tsuki. I don't know what happened with Constance but you have to let it go." Kaname spat out the blood that accumulated in his mouth from his split cheek after Tsuki punched him.
"You're right, you don't know. Don't you dare say something like that again, Kuran. Don't be stupid enough to make me an enemy."
"It isn't fair on the other involved, Tsuki. Even the son of the devil is allowed to know happiness. Stop being a coward and running from something that happened eons ago."
Kaname kept himself together as Tsuki got to his feet. The demon's aura was overpowering, even though his face was blank. "Get out."
Kaname narrowed his eyes and stood. His hand struck out and he grabbed Tsuki's skull tie, bringing the demon close and hugging him. "You're stupid to think that you have to go through everything alone, Tsuki. If you don't try how will you ever know?"
Tsuki lowered his eyes as he got himself under control again. What Kaname was saying made a lot of sense but at the same time, he couldn't see his own future so he had no idea what lied in the distance. He didn't like leaving anything to chance, especially when it came to matters of the heart. "And what of you and Zero? He's a little happier, now. Sunday and the deal will be completed and I will take my leave."
Kaname sighed internally. Tsuki was going to explode like the tomato the demon had thrown at the vampire if he didn't let out his emotions at some point. He released Tsuki and stepped back. "No, you won't. Not for good, anyway. And when you think about it, how is that fair?"
"Life is never fair. Make sure Zero is ready by seven." Tsuki loosened the tie and removed it, along with his shirt.
Kaname stared at Tsuki's back. "How –?"
Tsuki glanced over his shoulder. "We all have our own ways of dealing with pain."
"I didn't see them the first time I saw you without a shirt. When that soul reaper appeared."
"Yuuki fed me. I had the energy to put up the magic to make my body appear flawless. Some scars can't be hidden, though. If you care about her, Kaname, make sure you don't let the Fates interfere again." Tsuki went to his closet and stared at the clothing in it.
"The Fates are to blame for all of this?" Even to Kaname that sounded a little ridiculous, blaming everything on fate.
"Who do you think it was that gave Yuuki that book you sensed? You remember her talking about that substitute teacher she had for English, right? Enter Atropos."
Kaname blinked. "That's Greek. I thought you were of the Christian religion?"
"Do I appear to be following the teachings of Christ? I'm of the Roman Catholic religion. The Romans incorporated a lot of other religions into their own." Tsuki looked out the window. "Also, who's to say that I'm not the son of Hades as well? Satan and him might have gotten together and decided to create me and Taiyou."
Kaname raised an eyebrow. "Right." He wasn't going to discuss religion. It didn't make sense, to begin with, that one of the Fates would meddle with something like that. And yet, it explained everything at the same time. "We should be ready to leave by seven?"
"Yes." Tsuki pulled on a shirt. "Make sure Yuuki is ready as well."
"Of course." Kaname went to the door and paused, glancing up at the ceiling. It was beautiful and he got the feeling that Minako had already left the premises. "I'm sorry about what happened with Constance, Tsuki. I know I don't know but I do know the pain you're harboring. I'm not telling you to do something you don't want to but I'm suggesting you let your emotions control at least one of your actions, instead of letting your mind calculate everything." He opened the door.
"I could say the same to you, Kaname. I'm not the only who has to hold back. I could lie and say I don't know what's going on with you but I do. Trust me, mending Zero is a step in the right direction but you have to let him know that you also need some mending." Tsuki turned to the pureblood, messing up his still black hair. "You can't keep it hidden from someone who's going through the same thing, Kaname. The only difference is, you can have the one you love."
"And so can you. I trust you, Tsuki. I know you won't do something stupid and I can protect Yuuki." Kaname smiled and stepped out of the room, closing the door.
Tsuki glanced at the wood. "You won't be able to this Sunday." Tsuki lied on his bed and stared up at the ceiling, dreading the dinner. The real reason he wanted Kaname, Yuuki and Zero there was for moral support and also for the deal to be completed so he could disappear and make it that he was never there. First he had to deal with his family. I'm never going to catch a break, am I? Tsuki closed his eyes and sighed.

To everyone who has favorited/alerted: Thank you all so much and I hope this chapter was worth it!
To everyone else: Drop a line to let me know what you think! There is a lot I could still do if you people give me the incentive to do so~
Until the next one, have a great day!
