First thing in the morning, Yuki woke up and packed her bags. She snuck out, careful that headmaster Kaien wouldn't notice her. As she walked out the school's fence, she didn't second guess any of her choices, she knew said had to leave to save herself, and her love - Kaname. She walked towards the nearest town. She had absolutely no idea where she was, being that it had been years since she had left Cross Academy. She walked through a bunch of cherry blossoms, as the sun began to rise. The air was cool and refreshing. Beautiful, right? Yuki was alone and panicked. She wanted nothing more than to feel Kaname's hand against hers. As she tried to hold back tears, she felt someone gently put their hands on her shoulder. "Yuki" They said. Their voice sounded so familar, yet saddened. Like they had just got done crying and feel a little better, like now they were the hopeful kind of sad. Yuki turned around to see who it was. She was shocked. She felt butterflies in her stomach and she began to shake. Although she was happy, the only thing her face could express was terror and fear.
"Kaname!" Yuki yelled as she began to sob. "I am soooo sorrrrryyyyy" She hugged him as strong as she could and wouldn't let go. "Kaname I love you" she said as she tried to stop sobbing. "I only bit her to protect you" He said, "I knew I would get kicked out if I bit a day class member"

"Why would you want to get kicked out?" Yuki asked as she touched Kaname's hand.

"Because now I can be with you, forever. With no fear and nothing to hide. Outside of that school, nothing can hurt us" Kaname said as he kissed Yuki's lips, "I missed you" He said.

Yuki pulled away, "So you planned this whole thing?!?" She asked in alarm.

"No, but I had to do something when I found out that Sayori knew..." He said as he moved closer to Yuki.

Kaname suddenly moved away and got down on his knees. He showed her the diamond and saphire necklace in the picture Yuki had of her mom. The twinkle of the necklace matched Kaname's eyes. "Yuki Cross, will you marry me?" He asked as he put the necklace around her neck.
