(I don't think I'll be putting the title and author thing up now since we're already five chapters in ... It's kind of self explanatory. ^-^;;)
Chapter Five :
After trying my best to explain everything to Zero, he left me alone in the middle of campus. I stood there like an idiot. Not moving, barely breathing. All I could do was think about Aidou and how much pain had surged through my body as he clamped him mouth down on my neck. I rubbed the sore spot. I wondered what had happened to make Kaname leave me alone like that ... I wondered if he purposely left me alone in Aidou's care. I shook my head. No, Kaname doesn't seem like the type to do that ... although since he rarely shows any emotion it's hard to tell what he is really like under his unbreakable shell. The wind was whipping, and rather cold. It was the next night ... had I slept all day? I felt much better, much more alert rather than groggy and tired.
The best question to ask right now, though. Am I a vampire? I didn't feel any different; I even ran my tongue over my teeth and felt nothing. But then I remembered that they didn't show their fangs ... so mine could just be dormant. I couldn't see any better, I still had a heartbeat. But what did I know? Nothing. That's what.
Standing alone in the dark of the night Gené's ghost like whisper filled my mind. My knees were daring to give out under me but I kept my ground. My hands balled into fists at my sides as I tried to control my teeth from chattering. Maybe if I was lucky I would freeze to death and die; I know Gené told me not to worry anymore ... but I couldn't help to do just that. My life seemed like a chaotic heap of a mess. I wanted to die. I wanted that freedom I felt when I was floating in that black fog.
Someones hands wrapped around my shoulders, pulling me into their body. I stayed unmoving and calm as I listened to their strangely even breathing. They were warm and it felt good; their body was blocking the harsh wind. They grabbed my hands and held onto them, rubbing their thumb in soothing circles in the middle of my palm.
I was truly curious of who it was now, so I turned my head to have my mouth attacked by the other persons. Their lips were strangely gentle and sweet, soft like velvet. They kissed me gingerly, their hands gripping onto mine. My heart pounded against my ribs, my eyes were squeezed shut, although my lips were not protesting. They moved in rhythm with theirs ... traveling smoothly across the strange land they had never touched before. There was a low growl in my ear when our lips parted. I felt faint; my head fell into their shoulder. Who the hell did I just kiss?
Everything started to fog over although I seemed conscious. The person picked me up and carried me away somewhere. I prayed with all my heart that I had not just gave my first kiss to Aidou - although I don't know if you could count that, it was practically lip rape.
I passed out sometime between then ... leaving behind nothing but a sharp spark of an emotion that buried itself deep inside my heart.
It was déja vu all over again when my eyes flickered open; only this time I was in a room filled with light. I stayed unmoving for a long time; letting my mind wonder on everything. I could hear breathing, and a soft sound of wood hitting wood a moment apart from each other; it was the sound something like checkers or a chess game would make. I let my hand find it's way to my face, rubbing my eyes and squeezing the skin above the bridge of my nose; an action I did mostly when I was stuck in sticky situations.
Who had made me pass out all these times? Apart from the one where Aidou made me pass out. I kind of wanted to sleep on my own accord, not someone else's. Who did they think they were, controlling me like a puppet? I suddenly felt outraged; an emotion I was long used to. I sat up, swinging my legs off the bed, which only brought on another wave of déja vu. My stomach was upset. I let my gaze focus on my pajama's; a pair of black lounge pants and a blood red spaghetti strap tank-top. My feet were cold pressing against a wooden floor ... I looked up and was facing a spot that looked all too familiar. This was the room Aidou had bit me in. I jumped up; I wanted to run away from here.
Someone grabbed my arm, spinning me around to face them. And I gasped. My body froze in place and my lips quivered the tiniest. "Kaname ... "
"Komii ... " He sighed my name right back and pulled me into his chest.
My eyes were wide and I shoved against him. "Don't hug me! What am I doing here? How did I get here? What's going on?" My voice was a squeal of hysteria.
His face was still calm ... although now I could see an emotion in his eyes ... it was loneliness. He took me in his arms and sat down on the bed, holding me close to his chest and keeping his eyes to the ground; his face hidden in his halo of messy brown hair. "I brought you here ... after last night. I found you standing alone in the street ... you looked so pained ... I wanted to comfort you somehow. Aidou bit you and I realize now that he killed Gené ... " His voice was full of agonized guilt.
My mouth fell in an 'o' and I stayed quiet. So it was Kaname-sama who had been making me sleep all these times ... he was trying to look out for me. And he was the one who kissed me. His actions were so fast, it made my head spin. His hand was caressing my cheek, although his eyes were not meeting mine. His other hand held me tight against his chest protectively. He stood, letting me stand also, before shoving me behind him and wrapping an arm around me.
A fire filled growl made my ears ring. It was Kaname, he was growling at something ... maybe someone. I tried peeking over him but he was too tall.
"My, my Kaname ... baring your fangs over a mere mortal? What has become of you?" A rather unfamiliar voice sounded from across the room, it was rich and very deep sounding.
"Rido. You need to leave if you want to stay alive." He growled out in front of me, his body vibrating from the sound slightly.
"Threatening your own uncle? You think this scares me? You know you can never kill me fully, Kaname darling." If I could see the man, I bet he was smirking.
My hands gripped the back of Kaname's black dress shirt nervously, the material crumpling. His grip on me tightened. "Leave Rido. This is your last warning. Do not think I don't have the weapons to kill you."
"Weapons? Do you have somthing up your sleeve, you sly niece of mine?" I could hear the smirk in his voice again.
"That is for me to know and you to find out." Kaname answered calmly.
A burst of wind erupted around us and we were gone.
My eyes closed and yet again I was put into an unwanted sleep.
