A/N: I don't know what to really say today, just that I'm so grateful to have such wonderful readers! You guys make my day when I read reviews! Also, if you have any ideas or things you would like to see in the story, just ask and I'll see what I can do!

Disclaimer: I don't own Vampire Knight. But I do own the song Circe thinks/sings whatever. I made it up.

Circe snuggled closer to the warmth she was next to. It wasn't usually this warm when she woke up, but it was nice. She rolled over and gasped as something pulled at her side.

"Circe? Are you okay?" she opened her eyes to see the twins watching her. She didn't know which had spoken. Zero was walking over from the bathroom, towel wrapped around his waist. Ichiru was lying next to her, still in his pajamas.

"What happened?" she poked at her side and winced.

"Don't do that." Zero swatted at her hand. "Your rib is broken from getting hit last night. You were in a lot of pain. Shiki carried you to the Headmaster's and he bandaged you up and pumped you with drugs. There was something about a fairy and Kaname came to check on you. Then you yelled about an oven and I brought you here and you had a water bed. You fell asleep curled in Ichiru's lap"

"Wait, what? Fairies and an oven?" she cocked her head to the side like a dog.

"Yep. So don't move too much today, you're not going to any classes and you won't have a lesson tomorrow since you did so well yesterday." Ichiru got off the bed and went to go take a shower.

"Oh, here," Zero tossed her the camera, "You fell asleep, so Ichiru took a picture for you to see."

Circe turned the camera on and pulled up the first picture. "YOU TOOK A PICTURE OF ME SLEEPING? I LOOK LIKE CRAP HERE!" she screamed.

"Ugh, I took that because you and Ichiru looked so cute, but that's not what I want you to see. Flip to the next one that he took." Zero finished tying his tie.

"I….missed you smiling?" Circe stared at the photo. Zero looked so happy.

"Yea. I was smiling because of you two." He walked over to her. "Change into pajamas and rest some more. Your pistol is on the desk. Don't go anywhere today. I'm going to breakfast, see you at lunch." Zero ruffled her hair and left.

"Okay, I'm going to." Ichiru walked out of the bathroom, dressed. "I'm going to lock the door, don't let anyone in. See you" He leaned over and kissed the top of her head before he left.

Circe sat alone in the quiet room. No music, no laptop, nothing to entertain her. She flipped to the next thing on the camera, it was a video. She clicked play:

"Isn't she wonderful?"

"Yea I'm glad she found us. Now that she's been here for a week and two days, I can't imagine life without her. I love her."

"Me too."

She almost dropped the camera, she was so touched. She placed it on the floor, jumped up even though it pained her, and ran out the door.

She ran down the hallway until she saw them, "Zero! Ichiru!" she yelled. They both turned around in time to be tackle hugged by the young girl.

"I love you too." She whispered as tears ran down her face.

"Umm?" Zero hugged her back and looked at his twin quizzically.

"I video tapped it" Ichiru grinned sheepishly.

"Oh... well… Circe, go lay back down, you might get hurt!" Zero steered her back to the room and locked the door again before leaving again.

Circe lay on her back on her bed. What was she supposed to do all day? She began to come up with lyrics to a song.

As I lay here tonight/ only one thing floats in my mind/ how did everything changed/ where did the old go/ why I can't I remember?

Circe yawned and stretched, she gently touched her side when it spiked.

This is unreal/ It's like I'm dreaming everyday/ I didn't think I could ever be this happy/ I'm ready for my life to be lived.

Her voice trailed off as she began to drift asleep.

She was walking down a long hallway in some type of old castle. She looked down and saw she was holding a red vial and wearing a long, extravagant evening gown. The trail dragged along the floor as she walked. The bodice was a tight red corset with black ribbon tying it together in both the back and the front. The skirt was long and black. It sparkled and swirled around her legs as she walked. She couldn't see them, but she could feel strappy heels on her feet. She could feel that they laced up her legs to her thighs. She swung her hair to the side and it was different. It was much longer, if it wasn't for the dress, it would be dragging on the floor. It was pinned away from her face with gemstone clips. It was even a totally different color. It was a mixture that blended nicely together. There were blacks, dark browns, light browns, tans, and dark browns. It had faded red streaks, as if it was vibrate red months ago and it was growing out.

She came to a set of double doors. Slowly, one opened and allowed her to enter.

"Welcome, my beloved. I thought I would never see you again, but I found you." She whirled to see the man who spoke, but he was shaded in darkness.

"My, you grew up well. I'm glad I marked you." He chuckled

She tried to open her mouth to speak, but nothing came out.

"Don't try to speak. The plan is set in motion. When you finally see me again, we have much to do my dear. I'll see you soon." Fear struck her as darkness reached for it. It engulfed her, and she began to fall.

Circe woke screaming. She was still alone in her room, uniform on from the day before, hair falling out of the braid. Slowly, she stood and walked to the bathroom mirror. She breathed a sigh of relief and touched her silver hair. She was shaking slightly, but she could hide it. Circe combed the braid out of her hair. Walking over to her dresser, she picked out a red tank top, black jeans, and a black leather jacket from the closet. She pulled on thigh high combat boots. Her side ached more, so decided to go ask Kaien Cross for medication.

The hallways were eerily quiet and empty as she walked to the headmaster's office. Circe skirted the wall as she passed her class so the twins wouldn't notice her. When she finally arrived at the office, she rapped on the down three times.

"Yes?"

"Hi sir." Circe poked her head in the door and smiled sheepishly.

"Oh! Circe honey! Come in, come in, please sit down so you don't hurt yourself." Cross jumped up from his chair to help the girl sit carefully in a leather chair. "How is your rib?"

"It's hurting a bit. I came down to see if there was anything you could give me for the pain."

He began rummaging through a cabinet, "Here you go" Circe stood up and walked over to him and he handed her a red vial.

As soon as her finger closed around the cold glass and she saw it, she gasped and dropped it. Tears began to run down her face quietly.

"Circe! What's wrong?" Kaien grasped her shoulders and she began to sway.

"It's a red vial" it didn't seem like a big deal in the dream, but now that she saw it, it scared her.

"Yes, it was." He sat her back in the chair as she began shaking along with her crying.

"I was carrying a red vial."

"When? "He asked, "Was it when you were attacked?"

She shook her head, "In my nightmare I just had."

"Tell me." Cross sat in his hair and leaned across his desk.

Everything came tumbling out as she explained it. She ended with, "I'm scared. I really am." Circe played with the hem of her shirt and wiped at her face. Her side hurt more.

"I wish I knew what it all meant," he sat with his hands folded and his chin resting on them.

"i-is the voice a vampire? What if it's one from here? One I haven't met." Her mind turned over.

"It might be a vampire, but not one from here, I promise."

She nodded.

"Now, do you want a shot to make the pain in your side go away and to relax your mind?" he asked.

"Yes please."

Kaien walked out of the room into another. A few minutes later, he came back with the needle. Circe slipped off her jacket; he prepped her arm and stuck the needle in. there was almost immediate relief.

"Now, hurry back to your room before it completely kicks in. you might become disoriented and won't be able to think straight." He helped her put the jacket back on and walked her out the door.

"Mmmmmkay then." Circe already felt it, but she wanted to go sit outside. She walked out of the building and headed straight for the fountain. She laid down on the edge and closed her eyes.

"Circe? What are you doing out here? Why weren't you at school?" Circe hadn't known she fell asleep until Akio woke her.

"Hhmm? Oh, hi." Her mind was foggy and she was having issues thinking. Akio sat close to her and wrapped his arm around her tightly, drawing Circe uncomfortably close.

"I missed you today, why weren't you there?" he laid his head in her hair.

"Broken rib. Need space please." Circe was unhappy with the touching, and she was queasy now.

"Why would I let you go when you're incapacitated like this?" Akio picked her up.

"I'll be fine. I have cousins…" She tried to wiggle out of his arms, but it wasn't working. He held her tightly.

"Oh, don't try to get away, you'll only make it worst." Akio got a scary grin on his face, and Circe was more frightened then after her nightmare, in fact, she had forgotten all about the vision.

A/N: CLIFFHANGER! Hahaha, I love you all….? Please forgive me, but the chapter was getting long. Oh, and Circe's dream was written by my best friend, Brein. It was all his idea, I said I wanted her to have a dream, and he yelled at me to move. I came back ten minutes later and…BAM! I love him. So, please review and tell me what you think!
