Chapter 7: Honest Feelings
Many moments went by when Yuki sat there, deciding on what to say back to Zero. Many things came to her mind, but were not voiced. Tears lie in puddles on the onyx black floors of the hallway. She couldn't figure out why she was crying so hard… She doesn't love Zero… She loves Kaname, doesn't she? Yuki's legs were aching from how long she was sitting on the hard ground. The Night Class had four hours left until they left back to the Moonlight Mansion.
Yuki reluctantly stood up and went to her dorm. Her friend Yori was sitting up in bed, waiting for Yuki to come by. "Where have you been? Something happen?"
"Yeah…" Yuki replied to her as she laid on the couch that Kaname had laid on earlier that day. She breathed in his smell but her heart ached at the same time. She didn't have a piece of clothing that smelled like Zero.
"So spill it. What happened?" Yori plopped on the couch beside her, setting Yuki's legs up on top of hers.
"Huh?" She totally forgot she said anything to Yori. "Oh… Well, Kaname kissed me…"
"Eeeekkkkkkk! Really?!" She squealed as Yuki plugged her ears.
"What was it like?" Yuki had her full attention now that the subject was guys.
"It was… gentle and passionate." Yuki put her hand over her eyes. "Zero saw it…"
"What happened?! Did he hit Kaname?" Yori asked.
"No… He ran away and then he…" She paused in her statement. "I think he confessed his feelings for me. I don't know how it happened, Yori."
"Are you serious? Did you know that he liked you?" Questions kept coming from Yori.
"No, I didn't. I feel horrible. I like Kaname, but I feel something for Zero." Yuki explained everything that happened last night between her and Kaname since Yori was out of town for the past two days.
"Well, when you get bored of one can I have him?" Yori smirked.
The two of them laughed loudly. "Oh Yori, you always make me feel better." Yuki said through tear strewn eyes and gulps of laughter.
"That's what I'm here for, you know. Want some ice cream? I got Vanilla Carmel, your favorite." Yuki nodded as Yori got up and scooped the ice cream. The two girls talked about Yori's trip out of town for about fifteen minutes. A light knock sounded on the door as Yori rose to answer it.
"Is Yuki here?" Zero asked from the doorway. Yori sidestepped and let the door glide open as it revealed Yuki to Zero. "The Chairman wishes to speak with us." He was leaning against the frame of the door with his hand running through his hair. Yuki got up without a word and followed Zero out the door.
The pair of them walked in silence on their way out of the dorm building and over to the private quarters of the Chairman.
After a few minutes Zero spoke. "Forget about what I said earlier. I know you don't feel the same." He spoke with his eyes closed, a foot in front of her.
"Th-That's not true!" Yuki quickly covered her mouth and looked away, avoiding his gaze.
"Sure it is. You love Kuran…" They turned a corner.
Yuki wrapped her arms around Zero's left one as they stopped in their stride. She hid her face behind Zero's back so he couldn't see her. "I care for you… Zero…"
"Not in the way I want you to." Zero held her a little, patting her head.
"I think I do… I don't know anymore…" She let go of Zero as she continued walking, not taking a single glance at him. He followed her up the stairs quietly. Yuki lost her footing on a stair close to the top as she started to fall. She was fully embraced by Zero's arms as he pulled her flush against him, making sure she had balance.
"What do you mean you think you do?" He asked her quietly in her ear. "You must know."
"Well… I don't." She clenched Zero's white shirt since his jacket was unbuttoned. She breathed in his scent and realized it was different from Kaname. Zero smelled of roses and crisp air. Kaname smelled like spices and fresh soap. Yuki's back touched the wall and she hadn't noticed. She looked up at Zero, captivated by his beautiful violet eyes. They sucked her into their own dimension and she lost herself in them. Time seemed to stop and all around her was forgotten. The only feelings known to her was the tingle of her body, and Zero's warmth radiating from him.
Zero's hands were palm down on the wall that Yuki was pinned up against. His heart beat quickened as he realized he had the love of his life right in front of him. He lowered his lips closer to her, millimeter by millimeter, waiting for her reaction. She closed her eyes tightly and wrinkled her brow. Their lips softly met along with a wave of heat. Zero smirked and put his right hand on her jaw line as he tilted her head. He pressed his lips to hers again and drew back, teasing. Yuki couldn't do anything but blush.
"Yuki…" Zero said surprised.
"I just can't Zero… It's not right." Yuki said softly.
Zero looked away from her with disgust of himself. He got up off of the wall and shoved his hands in his pockets. "Let's go." They continued up the stairs and entered the room.
"There you are." The Chairman looked at Yuki. "Now we can talk. First of all, there is going to be a dance that we will throw before everyone is let out for spring break. Everybody is going to be there, the Night and Day classes together. I was going to depend on you two for keeping things the way they are supposed to be; safe." Yuki and Zero got comfortable in chairs as he explained.
"Will we be able to dance, too?" Yuki asked.
"Of course, my dear." The Chairman smiled, imagining Yuki in a beautiful ball gown.
"I'll do it!" She exclaimed. The Chairman laughed and nodded in agreement.
"I have some more paper filing to do, so if you will excuse me. And don't forget; the Night class is out in 45 minutes. Yuki, I need you to go back with Kaname and pick up a file for me that have all of the level E Vampires that Ichijo and Shiki have slain." He added before skipping out the door.
"Umm… okay…" Yuki replied. She sighed and then looked at Zero who was glaring at her. Yuki got up out of the chair and retreated to the kitchen. She opened the fridge and poured her a glass of orange juice and leaned against the island in the middle. She took a sip and stared at the bracelet that dangled from her wrist. "Kaname…" She breathed as she set the glass on the counter and stared at the emblem.
Zero entered the kitchen as he opened up the fridge behind her. He got out a bag of pizza bites and set it on the island. His arm threaded under Yuki's and around her waist as his other hand held her arms at her side. "Why? Why can't it be right?" Yuki looked him in the eyes but immediately regretted it. His mouth crashed up against hers and she gasped from the pressure. Zero took the moment to slide his tongue into her mouth. He forced it open wider as he explored her mouth enjoying the taste of her and orange juice. His tongue brushed up against hers as she crammed it back in his mouth and jerked away.
"It's just not right, Zero! How can I make you understand?" She argued, squirming.
"I just don't see why it has to be Kaname…" He growled. Yuki wiggled out of his hold and strode to the other side of the island.
"It's always been Kaname…" Yuki looked at the bracelet on her wrist as Zero just now noticed it. Zero figured she was thinking of Kaname because she blushed. He walked out of the kitchen and left Yuki to think. Zero kissed me… twice. It doesn't feel right. She looked at the clock and realized it was thirty minutes until the Night Class was let out. I'm going to take a shower… She went into the bathroom and locked the door behind her. The hot water ran into the bathtub as she tied up her hair with a scrunchie. Yuki bent over to check the temp of the bath water. Someone banged on the door to the bathroom and it startled her.
She jerked her head up and the corner of the towel bar sliced the left side of her neck. "Yeah?" She asked as she dabbed the cut with tissue.
"You alright? I smell blood." Zero yelled from the other side of the door.
"Yeah, I just cut myself." She replied.
"I'm leaving to go talk to the dorm leader." Zero replied and left as Yuki continued her bath. After 25 minutes she was finished so she got dressed and ran out to meet Kaname.
Yuki just got to the entrance of the classroom as they were all piling out. Everybody stared at her as their eyes fixed on her face like a magnet. Kaname walked out of the room with a shocked look on his face but calmed once he saw Yuki. "Go to the Mansion." He ordered the Vampires. They left reluctantly, glaring at Yuki.
"What's wrong with them?" Yuki asked as Kaname came closer to her.
"It's not what's wrong with them; it's what's wrong with you." Kaname pointed at her neck. Blood was dripping off of the cut on her neck. "What happened?"
"Zero…" Kaname's eyes glowed crimson at the name. "Zero scared me when I was taking a shower and I cut myself."
"How unfortunate." Kaname bent over and tilted her chin up. His tongue brushed over the wound, licking the blood clean from her skin.
"Kaname…" She mumbled as he stopped. They set off for the Mansion along with the others who waited at the gate for them. "I need to go with you…" She started.
"I know." Kaname said angrily. Why was he mad? He was fine just a minute ago…
When they got inside Kaname grabbed her wrist and led her up the staircase with Ichijo following him. "You have to greet some of the guests later." He reminded Kaname.
"I wish to be alone." Kaname barked at him and bursts open the doors to his room, dragging Yuki along with him. She strolled to the middle of the room as he closed the doors.
"Kaname… What's wrong?" She looked at him caringly as he came closer to her.
Kaname's lips stopped and inch from hers and then he pulled back, looking into her eyes. "What happened?"
"What do you mean?" Yuki asked confused.
"Why did he kiss you, Yuki?" The question was blunt, but it hurt him to say it.
"I-I don't know…" She looked at the ground.
"Yes, you do." Kaname held her tightly in his arms and ran his fingers through her hair.
Yuki was silent in his arms. She breathed in his scent and was able to speak. "He… has feelings for me."
Kaname looked her straight in the eyes. "Do you like him?"
Yuki shook her head back and forth maybe seven times before she stopped. "No."
Kaname sighed in relief. He let her go and sat as his desk as she followed him. "Here's the folder. There's only three, but he said he wanted them anyway." He held out a folder to her. She took it and set it back on the desk.
Yuki bent down and kissed Kaname. She went to pull back but he wanted more. He set Yuki in his lap and rested her back against the desk. His tongue slid into her mouth and met her hot, but tasty one. Yuki moaned at the motion, never getting used to it. She brushed hers against his as he wrapped his arm around her. His left hand rested on her leg and started to slide up her skirt. His large but soft caring hand sent goose bumps everywhere it traveled.
"Kaname!" She gasped as she moaned from the sudden burst of heat through her body.
"Shh…" Kaname's lips covered hers as his hand continued to slide up the side of her leg. His fingertips touched the bottom hem of her underwear, his hand resting on her hip. Kaname retreated from her mouth and placed hot kisses down her neck. His body pulsed as he reached the major vein Vampires sink their teeth into to get a good feed. He stretched open his mouth, bearing his fangs just above her neck. His warm wet tongue came from its cave and licked at the luscious tasting skin where the vein rested. Kaname's fangs inched closer to the designated spot as Yuki was preoccupied with his hand.
Yes… Another cliffy. Laughs evilly I just love my cliffs… I probably wouldn't get half the people to read my stories if I didn't have them. They always make me keep reading and wanting more.
By the way… You Zero fans, I am goo goo for Kaname right now so, sorry. I tell you, Zero's part will come later, I promise. Read and Review! Arigato!
