I'd like to thank my lovely reviewers and readers. You keep me going.

In his room, the first thing Takamiya did was sit down to recline on the divan. His eyes closed, enjoying how good it felt to let them rest. He sat up with a huff. He swiftly divested himself of his coat letting it fall to the floor. Feeling another presence in his room he opened his eyes, standing. There was a figure in front of him, face covered. Before he could move it did. From behind he heard the voice, "I'm not here to hurt you. I just need you to listen."

He turned to look at the intruder, his words harsh, "You break into my room and dare make demands?"

The person shrugged. At least he assumed that. It was hard to tell with all the cloth covering the person. He knew one thing, though. It wasn't a vampire. "What should I do?" the intruder wondered aloud. Fingers snapped. "I know."

Without another word Kaito watched as the cloth was removed from face. It revealed a white mask, the lips painted red, and the eyes outlined in black. Even in the dim lighting he could tell the eyes were blue. Another cloth was removed from the shoulders exposing an ample bosom and the delicate outline of the collar bone. She spoke, "Now listen. I want you to stop that stupid plan of revealing Sayori as a pure blood. If you are on her side you will do it."

He ignored her words. "Who are you?" he asked.

"Me?" she asked, her voice rising. "I am the person that attacked Sayori; a pure blood."

Kaito decided to humor her. "If I don't do as you say what will happen?"

"You may find yourself having to kill her. She would be in danger from being exposed to all those vampires. Whatever you decide, I don't care. I already gave her a way out, but your cooperation would be helpful to her."

She rushed forward at him. There was no time for him to react. The lightest, briefest touch of her index finger on his forehead then she was gone. He shut his eyes, frustrated. When he opened them he was no longer in his room. He was in Wakaba's room. He had pierced a knife through her stomach. Blood coloring her bed sheets. Tears were running from her eyes. He felt sick to his stomach. She clutched at his arms, asking, "Why?"

His throat was tight. It was hard to form words. He blinked, but she still clutched onto him except she was smiling. "I'm pregnant," she said. His blood ran cold. She leaned forward to confide, "I'm going to tell Kaname-sama tonight."

Looking to her belly he noticed a drastic change. Her stomach was big like she would soon give birth. She hugged him. She placed a kiss on his lips, moving a hand to rest on her belly. He felt a kick. She looked at him eyes wide with longing. "I can't believe soon we are going to be parents."

He flinched. "Our child?" he asked in disbelief. She raised an eyebrow at him. He quickly said, "A boy, or a girl?"

She frowned, "You know that we decided to let it be a surprise."

He sat up from the divan. Taking in his surroundings he found himself in his own room. I fell asleep, he thought somberly. That dream left him aching. He didn't want to see two of these things happening. The last one was highly unlikely, but he still found himself thinking about it the whole day. It just wouldn't fade. He had to stop them. He picked up the phone to call H.A.

Later in the evening Yori was visited by Takamiya. He seemed upset, she noticed. His clothes and hair were messy. He only stared at her as if considering something. Shaking his head he motioned for her to follow. They were going to see Kaname. Kaito expected he had a plan already. At the door they were greeted by Kain. He led them to a room then left to find Kaname. Kaito leaned against the wall, crossing his arms.

It was a simple room. There was a table with several books scattered about. Aido sat in one of the chairs. He looked at Yori, but quickly averted his gaze. She sat next to him looking at the books. There were some textbooks mixed in with some mystery novels and manga. She said, "Hello, Aido-san. Were you working on homework?"

Aido didn't turn to look at her, but he glanced out of the corner of his eye. He answered, "N-no. I was helping Yuki-sama study."

Yori chuckled. She placed a comforting hand on his shoulder causing Aido to stiffen. She was going to give him encouragement, but lost her words noticing the book's subjects. It was advanced math that even she would find difficult. "Yuki didn't always study on time. Please have patience," she said, finding her lost words. She picked up a book and skimmed it. Holding the book up, she asked, "You like to read this?"

Slowly Aido turned to look at the manga she held. "Ichijo recommended it," he said quietly.

"You can borrow it, Yori-chan," said Ichijo, pushing Aido aside. She declined. He spoke to her with ease. When he noticed Kaname's approach he grinned. Yori hadn't, so he asked, "Besides Kaname who else has kissed you?" His friend's feet halted. He suspected that even her guard was listening intently despite the disinterested demeanor.

"He... is the first man to kiss me," she said, blushing. She added, "But he wasn't my first kiss."

All the men in the room stay silent. Ichijo gaped at Yori, while Aido was wide-eyed. She kissed a girl, they realize. Who? She answers their unspoken question, "Yuki."

Ichijo said, "Just a peck, right?"

She shook her head. Before she could answer Kaname pulled her out of the chair. Grabbing her by the shoulders he demanded, "Why don't I remember this?"

"You weren't there. Besides, she was little. It caught me by surprise, but it was her way of apologizing," she said. "She doesn't remember."

"Who else have you kissed?" he asked through clenched teeth.

"I have only been kissed by you Kuran siblings," she retorted, angry. "Who have you kissed that you're so good at it?"

Kaito decided to end their argument there. He had to leave soon. He had chosen to be on Yori's side. At least, if what that pure blood woman had said was true. She had manipulated him with the dream, but that was their power: to manipulate. He wasn't a complete fool, though. He had no illusions about being with her. Cutting into their argument, he said, "Enough. I have to leave soon, so tell me your plan."

It was a much welcomed interruption for Kaname. He didn't want to answer Yori's question. "She is quite safe living with the headmaster. He is after all a vampire hunter." Those last words surprised Yori. She hadn't known that and it was hard to imagine. She berated herself for thinking that way. Kaname continued, "Aido will also guard her."

"But Kaname-sama wouldn't it be better to have Yuki guard her," Aido protested. He quickly stopped when Kaname scowled at him. Yuki was Yori's best friend. She was a pureblood, stronger than he. That had been the original decision. "Are you telling me I can't trust you, Hanabusa?" Kaname asked in a falsely kind voice sending shivers down Aido's back. He simply shook his head in answer.

"Fine," Kaito said. The headmaster he trusted "Nothing bad must happen to her, or I'll hurt you," he warned Aido. He didn't like it. Still he had to go to personally persuade H.A. He had called and told them not to go through with their scheme. "I'm leaving tonight. Let's go, Wakaba."

Kaname left to his room. He didn't feel like being bothered with questions. Takuma could play at guessing the reason for his actions. He was jealous of Yuki. Maybe she had been young, innocent in her actions. He refused to admit it. Now Aido had to cross-dress for two months and attend the day class. Kaname had failed to mention that on purpose.

He had only meant to walk Yori to the front door then he'd head to his room for his things and depart. His back to her, ready to walk away, her voice stopped him. "Take care of yourself, Takamiya-sensei."

Turning to look at her over his shoulder, his eyebrows furrowed, he said, "Bye, Wakaba." Yori frowned, disliking how those words sounded. She cared about her teacher even if he was gruff. He had after all given her advice when she had been confused. She hurried to hug him. She spoke her words to his back, "You have to come back, Kaito-san."

She didn't wait to hear his response. She knew it wouldn't be nice, so she ran inside. Kaito laughed soundlessly.

"…never said I wouldn't Yori."

I'm not very satisfied with this chapter, but let me know what you thought.
