The vampires slowly became an unbridled mess. I tried to keep order but there was too many of them. I tried to keep order but there were many of them. Some aimed for me but I could not attack them, headmaster's orders. When the headmaster came followed by Yuki and Kaname the vampires calmed down. I got up from the floor, my body aching from the blows and bites. I walked outside for short break. I was starving because I was fasting to have more energy. Zero was coming in my direction. "Akane, are you ok?" he asked. I looked up at him barely able to keep my eyes open. He looked over my skin to see the fang marks and bruises. He was going to storm back and kill them and possibly get himself killed. I grabbed the edge of his shirt and tugged. "Stay here, please."
The searing pain from my neck was unbearable. I tried clawing at it and it will only grow more unbearable. Yuki would run in after Zero tried to calm me down. Zero would wait till I fall asleep to leave or sometimes he be there till I woke him up. Those nights my dreams would only be of him and no one or nothing else. His soft lavender eyes just staring into my gentle green ones.
I woke up with a start we were outside on the grass just sleeping. The wounds and bruises are gone now "Akane! Zero! Where did they go?" I heard the headmaster yell. I tried to get up but Zero's head was on top of my stomach, stirring slowly from his slumber. I watched him wake up playing with his hair and he got off me as soon as he realized he was on me. "Sorry." He muttered quickly looking away. I still caught his completely blushing face. The headmaster found us. He motioned us to follow him with a serious look on his face. We knew he wasn't playing around any more. Some things wrong and I could feel in from my gut to my brain. We walked into his office and Kaname and Yuki were there too. I sat down feeling uncomfortable for a reason other than the two purebloods in the room which worried me because I didn't know what it was. "Akane, we are putting under special protection because what Yuki and Kaname reported today." The head master said. "What? Why? I haven't done anything."I asked. "Rido came into our dorm last night and said he was after you not Yuki anymore because your blood was much sweeter than any pure blood or vampire he's ever tasted." Kaname explained bluntly. I gasped remembering the night but putting it off thinking it was a dream. "I don't want it. It was my fault and I have been hunting him since he killed my sister." I said walking toward the door. Once outside Zero pushed me against a wall. "Why? Why didn't you take that offer? Don't you know how strong pure bloods are?" Zero asked. I sighed and started to explain. "I should have dwelt with this a long time ago. No, I don't know how strong purebloods are and I wont unless I try." He stared in my eyes until I looked away. "I don't want you to get hurt." he said as his lips met mine. They were soft and I begin to kiss back but then I remember what today was. I broke the kiss and buried my head into his chest. "Merry Christmas." I said.
We started to walk towards the headmaster's living room and Zero asked me. "What happened to the wounds and bruises?" I started to wonder if I could answer that question seriously. "I just heal quickly." I answered him. He nodded and opened the door for me. The headmaster was waiting patiently with Yuki and Kaname. "Merry Christmas!" they yelled all together. They opened my presents first. Yuki screamed with delight until she found out my private joke about the directions. Kaname just stared and opened the book. The headmaster opened his and he started to cry and hug me I tried to push him away. Zero opened his and put the lime green bracelet with a chain on. "It is supposed to remind you me because the color is the same as my eyes." I explained I could feel the blush on my face. "Well I only bought you a gift."He said. He took it from his pocket and put the necklace in my hand. The stone was the same lavender his eyes and it was gently hanging from the black lace with rose designs on it. "I got something else for you later though." He whispered in my ear. The headmaster was in tears in his face because he didn't have a gift from Zero. Yuki and Kaname knew that they would not get one from him. I got up because I remembered that I have been granted permission to cook today's dinner. I started to cook with some soup because it was cold outside but I didn't know what to make with it or what kind of soup I should make. Zero came in trying to kill time he started to add ingredients to the soup and I made stir fry with all of our favorite meat. The hungry people waited in the door way trying to get closer but I would not let them for when I cook no one but I tried the food until it was on the table.
The food was nice and neat on the table I could not wait for the delicious things to be eaten and smiles grow across faces. Zero's soup was beyond great and tasted wonderful. I got many complaints about my food and that I picked the right spices. I said thank you and was about to head to my room when a hand grabbed my wrist. "You haven't opened your presents yet." Zero reminded me. "I didn't, really?" I asked myself forgetting that I hadn't. He pulled me by my wrist to the living room and show me that there were three presents still left under the tree. How could I forget my presents? I asked my self. I opened the first one. It was an apron with Daddy's little girl on it. I put aside I knew who it was from and started to think of how to get rid of it and the million excuses I could use. The next was a simple green flower from Yuki. I told her thank you for it because we both know that my favorite color was green. The next was a ball of yarn from Kaname. "I remember that when you were young you use to chase a ball of yarn anywhere." He noted. I suddenly blush recalling times I was caught with the headmasters yarn. "Thank you all for these wonderful presents." I quickly said and left the room.
Zero followed me into my and went straight into my closet. I heard the clanking of metal hitting metal. He came out kissed my forehead. "Akane will you go to the ball with me?" he asked. I nodded my head quickly in a yes as he chuckled. "Good, then I hope you like your new dress." With that he left out of my room.
Rido was following but I ran into dead end I turned around and he was there in front of my face. "Darling you know that I will not let you be taken by another man." He said. I slapped him and he just chuckled evilly. He came closer to my face and I spat at him. "Bad behavior needs to be punished. His fangs slowly sank into my neck. He was taking too much. I was going to die.
