Present Time…
It has been two years since my parents died, and I am going into the night classes soon for the first time. I had avoided all the night students and they stayed out of my way since I was classified as a human.
"Yuuyako! Wake up!" Yuki yelled. I groaned and looked at the clock.
"It's only three in the afternoon. I don't need to get up til seven!" I shouted back. I heard the door open and I laid facedown into the bed, the pillow on top of my head.
"Get up! Kaien wants you in his office because he wants you to get your schedule and meet Kaname." she said breathlessly. I peeked at her and her neck was red and it was rising up to her cheeks.
"You really need to get over him. It's not like he can be with you Yuki." I said, pointing out the facts to her. I watched from the sidelines how he acted towards her, and with the way each of their schedules ran, she would need to be a vampire like me. But I knew that wouldn't happen anytime soon with the way Zero thought.
"Just please get up. I would like to see him on time." she begged. I groaned and sat up, rubbing the sleep from my eyes.
"Fine, fine. Just get out so I can take a shower." I said and she nodded eagerly.
"Kaien gave me your uniform so it'll be waiting in your closet when your done." and with that she ran out of the room and slammed the door closed. I sighed unhappily and took my shower. As I was getting dried I looked at the foggy reflection of myself in the mirror. My hair had grown down to the backs of my knees, and it's color deepened with the years. It now looked like it could pass as black during the night, but in the light it was a deep crimson red. I looked at the dull green of my eyes. Nothing brought back the glow they once had, and the matters that were going on weren't helping. I sighed and walked out of the bathroom. I grabbed the white uniform from the closet and set it on the bed while I looked for my underwear in my bureau. Once I got dressed, I went back in the bathroom and blow dried my hair.
"Yuuyako?" I heard someone whisper. My bedroom door closed and I peeked my head out.
"Zero? What's wrong?" I asked. He stared at the floor and leaned against the wall.
"Are you decent?" he asked.
"Yeah." I said and I stepped out of the doorway. "What's wrong?" I asked again. It wasn't like Zero at all to act like this. He was usually mean and kept to himself. His hair shielded his eyes so I looked at his hands. They were clenched in fists. I immediately stood in front of Zero and pushed his hair up out of the way. His normal gray eyes were now red with hunger and I sighed.
"Zero…" I trailed off. I touched his forehead and felt some of my energy flow into him, and some of his hunger go into me. His eyes went back to the normal gray and he slide down to the floor. I walked over to my mini refrigerator and grabbed a blood packet, downing it without problem.
"I don't know how your parents raised you like that. Around here it's not normal." I heard Zero whisper. I threw the plastic bag in the trash and used a Kleenex to wipe my mouth.
"I was raised like this because my parents were sane enough to not want me feeding on humans. I would rather drink those than from a human being. I'm still trying to wean myself off of them and go onto the pills." I replied. Zero grunted and he was trying to sit up.
"You need to come to me once you have the slightest trace of hunger. Kaien knows but he is ignorant of how far your taking it." I said. Zero just looked at me. I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose.
"I'm a pureblood but that doesn't mean I can do everything." I chastised him. I walked over to him and ruffled his hair.
"Take a power nap. Call me once you leave." I said and then I brushed my hair real quick and literally ran to Kaien's office.
"Yuuyako" I heard someone whisper. I looked around the hallway and nobody was in sight. I had just walked out of the gates when Yagari stepped out of the shadows.
"What do you want?" I snapped. He held his hands up in mock surrender.
"What's got your attitude screwed up?" he asked coolly. I frowned.
"Does hearing voices do a person any good when they're waken up early?" I growled. Yagari put his hands down and he escorted me to the chairman's office.
"Has it happened before? It could be the long nights you spend on studying." he suggested. I shook my head.
"The long nights have no damn thing to do with it. This has never happened before, and if it did, I don't remember." I said.
"Wow. You not remembering a single detail would mean that the apocalypse is on the way." Yagari muttered in mock horror. I crossed my arms while we walked.
"It's not my fault that I have photographic memory." I grumbled. We reached the office and Yagari stopped. I turned to him and he bowed.
"What's with all the friendliness and respect all of a sudden?" I asked him.
"I have known you since you were thirteen and I respect you for the way you treated me then, and how you treat me now. Zero was the only one who showed the guts to treat me like that." Yagari said. I waited and he took a deep breath.
"You aren't like the other bloodsucking vampires. You are a category of your own. Good luck and I will see you in your classes." he said and walked off, leaving me confused. I opened the door to the chairman's office and he was sitting at his desk. Another vampire was sitting in one of the chairs off to the side and so I sat in the one in front of Kaien's desk, not showing signs of backing down.
"Yuuyako, this is Kaname. He is the other pureblood that attends the night class." Cross said. I noted that the blinds were drawn to keep the room in somewhat a dark state. I nodded to the boy and he nodded back, holding eye contact with me. I leaned back into my chair and faced Kaien.
"Why do I have to meet him?" I asked, wondering at the same time where Yuki was. I turned to face Kaname and then calmly looked at the door which burst open, showing a slightly confused Yuki standing there. She quickly bowed and took the seat between Kaname and I.
"Kaname with be showing you around since Yuki and Zero will be busy doing their prefect duties and such. I could feel the boy's gaze on me and I saw him staring me down.
"How come I have never seen her until now? You told me she has been here for the past two years and yet I have never caught a glimpse of her." he asked Cross.
"I'm good at hiding." I smirked. I stood up and stretched.
"I know where my classes are, can't I just attend them and arrive by myself?" I said, leaning on the desk because of a dizzy spell. Yuki sat straight and I could feel Kaname's eyes watching me. If he kept it up, I would become positive that Yuki was just a simple fan girl to him. Kaien shook his head and Kaname's eyes narrowed.
"The other nobles don't know you and if Kaname doesn't introduce you, they will think that you snuck in." Cross said. I fell back into my chair.
"Dammit." I mumbled and I saw Yuki visibly relax.
"He will introduce you as his girlfriend-" Cross started.
"What?" I yelled, making Yuki wince.
