~Sweet Deception~
By: Aerys Krystie.
A/N: Boxing Day is the day after Christmas. I don't know if any place other than Australia, New Zealand and England celebrate it.

Epilogue – Six months later…
Kaname watched as Yuuki and Zero decorated the tree from the entrance to the living room. They were going to spend the holiday together, once Yuuki made them promise they would spend Boxing Day in hell, with Tsuki's family…again. They were going there twice a month for Sunday dinner, wasn't that enough? Not that Kaname had a problem with that. After all, that family was soon to be his.
In the last six months Kaname had managed to take out the Council and create his own. Unlock Yuuki's memories, which thankfully didn't change her much. He became ruler of the vampires, with Zero by his side and he managed to graduate from school. Zero was doing exceptionally well and was really beginning to show that he was pregnant. Tsuki took them to a great doctor that didn't blink at the fact that she was scanning a male to check on his growth. How Tsuki found those people was a mystery that Kaname didn't want to unravel.
Four months ago, Tsuki proposed to Yuuki, who gleefully accepted and they were in the midst of planning their wedding. Kaname was thinking of doing the same thing with Zero. It would be nice but Kaname doubted it was something that Zero would enjoy, especially if he was going to force the Hunter to wear a dress. Kaname smirked at the image and accepted the glare that Zero sent him. It hadn't taken Zero long to figure out how to block his thoughts from their bond and it was something Kaname already knew.
It had been easy to explain away Zero's pregnant stomach. Everyone that had seen it knew what it was and if they didn't know what it was, it was removed from their memories that they had ever seen it. Sometimes it was a little difficult to remove Yuuki from it. She fawned over Zero like he was a crystal statue that would break if she left him alone for five minutes. Zero might complain about the attention but secretly he was loving it. Kaname and Yuuki were both doing anything he asked of them. The only one that told him to get off his lazy, pregnant ass and do it himself was Tsuki, unless it involved something that could really harm the growths that were inside the boy's body. So far Zero had had to put out three fires and defuse eight bombs because Tsuki was trying to keep the Hunter in shape.
That also doesn't include his childish antics with all the Christmas decorations. In the last week alone Kaname had to rescue someone they thought was going to commit suicide from the roof of the mansion, which turned out to be a dummy. He had rearranged the reindeer to appear as though they were fornicating on the front lawn. He reworked the lights to spell out "Suck my cock, Santa". Created a family of snowmen and slaughtered them, using red paint as blood and making a vampire snowman the culprit. Hacked Kaname's bank account and sent out four hundred thousand, seventeen thousand, nine hundred and eighty-three Christmas cards – but paid Kaname back for everything he spent – and then told some children at the mall that the world wide recession has hit Santa as well because when he asked the old, fat bastard for an escort, he was given a hooker instead. Needless to say a lot of parents were not impressed to have their children know the difference between an escort and a hooker or even to explain what they were to their seven year olds. And just when Kaname didn't think there was anything else the damned demon could do, he found Tsuki making out with Zero beneath the mistletoe, with Yuuki taking pictures.
Speaking of the damned demon, where was he? Kaname hadn't seen Tsuki all day and was terrified to know what else that twisted mind was thinking up. Kaname left Yuuki and Zero to finish the tree and wandered through the mansion. He stopped at the billiard room and sighed when he saw Tsuki at the bar, complete with bartender. It didn't matter how many times he told Tsuki to stop bringing demons into his home, the demon continued to do it. He sat beside Tsuki and ordered a scotch on the rocks. The bartender made the drink appear from nowhere and smiled.
"You can piss off now," Tsuki told the bartender, who disappeared. The demon sighed and downed his drink. "I hate the holidays. I get summoned every twenty minutes. But I love them because that's when most of my work comes in. What a shitfest."
Kaname sipped his drink as Tsuki lit a cigarette. He watched the demon from the corner of his eye. "Don't you know that smoking is bad for the babies?" he asked and went to take the stick from Tsuki, who pulled back.
"Suck my cock, Kaname. I'm nowhere near your boyfriend." Tsuki exhaled smoke and got to his feet. "Looks like I'm being called away…again."
Kaname took hold of Tsuki's arm and forced the demon back into his seat. "You're not going anywhere. I've seen how many souls you've collected – because you're so damn ancient – and I know that you don't need to collect anymore for a little while. You could take a break for at least five or six millennia." It was true. Tsuki had collected more souls than his father had and that was including him letting some people keep theirs because of their selflessness.
Tsuki crushed out his cigarette and refreshed his drink, downing it. "It's kinda creepy you checking up on me, Kaname. You know that I would never hurt Yuuki. Hell, she's getting her dream wedding because of me and that takes money. Money I receive when I reach a monthly quota."
Kaname snorted. "You've done more than that. So, this is what you're going to do…" Kaname finished his drink and grabbed hold of Tsuki's shirt, pulling the demon closer. "You're going to take the rest of the month off of work. You are going to be around my sister and you're going to make her happy. If you don't make her happy, I'm going to kick your ass back to hell. Am I clear?"
"That threat would be scary if it were true, Kaname. So bring it on, vampire. You're forgetting one little detail that makes me the victor in this fight. I'm the son of the fucking devil. You'll never stand a chance against me." Tsuki raised an eyebrow slightly and Kaname's hand was removed from his shirt and the vampire was held in place. "All you had to do was ask."
Kaname narrowed his eyes. "I'm calling in my other fav –"
"No you're not. You'll be needing that for when you and Zero decide to go on a two week cruise and leave us with your thirteen year old children." Tsuki released the hold he hand on the pureblood and sat down again, a new drink appearing in his glass.
Kaname relaxed and studied the demon. "Why won't you share who you are with us, Tsuki?"
"Why do you care if you know about me?"
"You're about to become my brother-in-law, Tsuki. I should know something about you at the very least. I know you probably haven't told Yuuki about the skeletons in your closet." Kaname's drink was refilled and he sipped at the liquor.
"That's because the skeletons in my closet are literal skeletons from nosy people that didn't know when to stop. Don't make me add you to that collection." Tsuki finished his drink and threw the ice out of the glass over his shoulder. "Why do they always put ice in with bourbon?"
Kaname shrugged. "No idea, brother. Fine, if you won't answer my questions then just answer this one." He pulled out one of the photos he took from Tsuki's bedroom the last time they were in hell. The one of him and the vampire. "Is that Constance?"
Tsuki glanced at the picture for half a second. "Yes."
"What happened and is it possible for that to happen to Yuuki?"
Tsuki took the picture from Kaname's fingers and stared at it. "I ran into her randomly once, in Paris for the Gucci show. She was one of the models and I was the person that made up the models and dressed them. She died, ten years later. And no, it isn't possible for it to happen to Yuuki."
"She made a deal?"
"After meeting me, Taiyou approached her and talked her into a deal. One that would make all of her problems disappear. She accepted it because she thought she was protecting me. So now she's in hell, being tortured for her selfish ways."
"That doesn't seem all that selfish, actually. She had good intentions."
"She thought she was protecting me but I already knew about her past and all of that. She knew I'm a demon and she knew that I knew. She just wanted it all gone and didn't care if she had to spent an eternity being tortured for it."
"I'm sor –"
"Shut the fuck up. For the last eight months you've been dying to know about her. You've been dying to know about me." Tsuki finished his drink and the picture went up in flames, the ashes scattering around the room. "Are you happy, now?"
"No. I knew that knowing wouldn't make me happy, Tsuki but I had to know." New drinks appeared and Kaname slipped an arm around Tsuki's shoulders. "At least we know for sure that Taiyou won't do anything that stupid with Yuuki."
Tsuki half-smiled. "True. Here's to our bright futures. Both are filled with screams, tears, laughter, sleepless nights and dirty diapers." He raised his glass.
Kaname clinked his glass to Tsuki's. "The joys of parenthood." They laughed and drank the liquid. "God, that stuff is harsh."
"That's because you're drinking scotch. Try this." Tsuki took hold of Kaname's jaw, forcing his mouth open and poured his drink down the vampire's throat. After the choking and spluttering, Kaname managed to swallow the bourbon. "It's much smoother than scotch."
Kaname narrowed his eyes and grabbed Tsuki, slipping his tongue into the stunned demon's mouth. He smirked when Tsuki's eyes widened. "Don't force something down my throat again; otherwise you won't like what I force down yours."
Tsuki wiped his mouth, still staring at Kaname. "You've been dying to do that for the last eight months as well. Now that you've gotten it out of your system, let's never do that again."
"Deal," Kaname agreed as their glasses were refilled and emptied.

End.
And thus concludes the story of Sweet Deception. Sweet Decoy is already in the works, which will be a four part story revolving around the wedding and the set up for Sweet Dictator which will be the actual sequel.
I also screwed up with the timeline and Yuuki will be having her children about a year after Zero. Sweet Decoy will be five months after this story and Sweet Dictator will be about seventeen years later and revolving mainly around the children. So, I hope you're all looking forward to that!
So...is anyone even curious about how this story came about? Well, even if you aren't, I'll let you know. I watched Vampire Knight Abridged on YouTube - reuploaded one and boom, I came up with the storyline of this little tale. I honestly never expected it to be this popular and I still don't know how I got this story from a parody of the series. Now you all know.
Also, I thought of the names for the children. I wasn't getting any ideas pitched to me (at least not at the time I was trying to think of them) but many thanks to those who tried to help! So now I'm just working on the other stories as well as getting my Tsuki cosplay outfit together for the next convention. I was meant to be going as Zero but my Kaname decided they had better things to cosplay as...Like Reno from Final Fantasy VII. Major let down. But enough of my bitching, let's get to the good part!
