Rosetta

Chapter 6
Note: Yuki is about 5ft. 6in.

The Headmistress greeted me and showed me to my new room/dorm. It was a little smaller than my room back at Kaname's house. But my room is really big compared to any type of room. For now, I have the room to myself, but if someone new comes, there going to be my new roommate. I got my some of stuff unpacked and picked up one of my favorite books that Rosetta packed for me. It was Romiette and Julio by Sharon M. Draper. I started to read this one, again.

It was getting close to two o'clock in the afternoon, and I was starting to get hungry. I wasn't sure were to get something to eat around here. I tried to go find a place to eat, and I felt like I was wandering around aimlessly. This place is so big, and I started to get lost. I pass by people that just ignored me as I asked them were I can get something to eat. The next corner I turned, I bumped into someone. We bumped into each other so hard, we both fell back onto the ground. I looked at the person I hit and it was to be a boy, who looked like he was a year older than me.

"I'm sorry." said the boy. He got up, and offered his hand to me. I hesitated for a half of a minute, and then took it.

"Thanks. I'm sorry for bumping into you. I'm new here, and I don't know my way around here yet." I said quietly. This boy was really cute. He was about a few inches taller than me. He had ear- length hair that was a pure silver color. He had a tattoo on his neck.

"Oh, well then, welcome to Cross Academy. My name is Zero Kiryu. What's your name?" he said in a friendly tone, and held out a hand for me to shake.

"My name is Yuki. Yuki Cross. Nice you meet you." I said, as I shook his hand.

"Cross.. Are you related to the Headmistress?" he asked.

"No, I'm not. Cross is a common last name I guess." I answered.

"Oh. So, where you headed?" He seemed very nice. Like he wants to be my friend.

"I was trying to find a place to eat. I don't know my way around here, yet."

"I was going the same myself, but I actually know my way around here." he joked. "Why don't you come with me, since you don't know your way around here, yet."

Really?? He's asking me?? "Um... sure." Might as well, or else I could get lost again, and bump into someone else. He took my hand and we both headed downstairs and out the door to the back of the dorm building. We headed through the trees and everything else, and we ended up at a sushi place. Which is weird, since I didn't expect there be one here.

It was warm inside, and it smelled like fish. Well, duh, it suppose to smell like fish here. I took out my money, and got ready to order.

"Don't worry. I'll pay." Zero said to me. I almost forgot he was here.

"No. I can't let you do that." I objected.

"Its cool. I don't mind."

"You sure?" I didn't want him to pay for me. I had more than enough money from Kaname and Rosetta.

"Yea." He didn't seem to mind.

"Thanks." I said quietly.

"Your welcome." He flashed a smile at me. It was just as cute at Kaname's smile, but Zero's smile wasn't crooked. We both ordered, and just as he said, he paid for me. As we ate, we got to know each other more.

"So you from around here?" Zero asked.

"Sorta. I live about twenty minutes from here. What about you?"

"That's not that far. I live here. The headmistress adopted me when my parents died." He must feel comfortable around me to tell me that.

"I'm sorry to hear that. We have something in common. Three years ago, my parents were kill in a very frightening, and disturbing accident." I stuck a sushi roll in my mouth. The food here was actually pretty good.

"I'm sorry for your lost, as well. Did you see your parents die?" he asked. He seemed curious on how they were killed, but I wasn't sure if I should tell him the truth.Then I remembered what Kaname told me last week. He told me not to tell anyone about the existence of vampires, because the government doesn't want to tell the public yet.

"Well, you must promise me not to tell anyone about how my parents died. Okay?" I wanted to make sure he wouldn't tell.

"I promise, you can trust me. I hardly know anyone here." I wasn't sure if he meant it, but I took the chance and told him.

"Okay." I lowered my voice I little, so people around us wouldn't hear. "It was a cold night in December. And, I followed my parents to a place I wasn't suppose to be. It wasn't a bad place, it just wasn't safe. You may not believe this part, but it is true. A vampire killed them, all because of me. You see my family are... were vampire hunters. My parents were the best of the best. I got caught by the vampire they were after and, he used me as bait to kill them. He almost did kill me, but someone saved my life." I tired to get it out as fast as I could.

Zero didn't seem surprised at all, when I said the part about the vampire. He kept his voice low at mine. "I sorry about that. But its a good thing he didn't get to you. Then I wouldn't be able to meet you. Whoever saved you, has a very kind heart. And don't worry about me telling anyone. My family are vampire hunters as well. I'm the only one left."

His family were vampire hunters as well? Strange how the world works, with everyone keeping secrets about themselves. "Wow. I'm the only one left in my family, as well." I said quietly.

"Is that why you came here, to this school? Because you don't have anywhere else to go?" he asked.

"Well, I'm living with the person who saved me, and his family. They've been very kind to me."

"Really? What, is the guy like in his 40's or something like that?" he joked.

"No, he's eighteen and his mom is thirty-eight." I stated

"Oh." By now, we were both done eating, and it was sunset. Time flies fast.

"I'd better get back to my dorm, and finish putting my things away. It's getting late. Thanks again for buying me dinner." I got up to throw my trash away.

"Don't leave yet. It not that late." Zero protested.

"I can't. I have things to do. Besides, I have to call someone." I tried to leave, but he got up and blocked my path. "Excuse me." I tried to say it politely, but it sounded angry.

"Let me walk you back. Like you said, you hardly know your way around here." I guess I could let him do that. It's the least I could do.

"Okay. Thanks." I gave in. Zero went to throw his trash away. I waited for him by the door. He took my hand again. This time when he held my hand, he had more of a grip, and I felt like there was more tension.

"Okay, we're here." Already? It felt like it was faster than last time.

"Thanks." I said again, and turned my back to him and unlocked the door.

Then something happen that I didn't want to happen. Zero spun me around, so I could face him. Then he pull me closer to him, and he kissed me. That's something that I didn't expect him to do. I tried to pull myself away from him, but he held me there for a good minute.

When he was finally done, I smacked him in the face. "What was that for!?" I shouted. I was so furious, I didn't even wait for him to answer. I opened the door, and slammed it in his face, then locked the door. I reached in my purse for my cell phone. Then I realize it wasn't in there. Crap... Where is it?

I had to search my whole room, and did eventually find it. It was under my clothes, piled on my bed, that I never finish putting away. I opened it and the screen showed One Miss Call. I look to see who it was, but I didn't recognize the number. I just ignored it, and started to punch numbers in.

The call was picked up on the second ring. "Hello?" said Kaname.

"Kaname?" I said. I felt like I was going to cry. I wanted to go home, really badly.

"Hi Yuki. How was your first day?"

"Um... good." I lied. I didn't want to tell him what just happen, but I knew I was going to eventually.

"What's wrong, Yuki?" How does he do that? He already knows that there's something wrong.

"Nothing.." I lied again. I hated to lie to him, but I didn't want to tell him.

"Yuki. You know you can tell me anything. What's wrong?" I could hear the concern and worry in his voice.

I took a deep breath, and just said it. "Well.. I met this guy today. He was nice at first, but when I was about to go in my room, he force me to kiss him. Well, he kissed me. I tried to stop him..." I had to stop there. Tears started to come out.

"Who did this?" His voice was angry now.

"Zero Kiryu." I said quietly.

"I'm coming down there to get you." Now he sounded angry.

"No. Its okay. I'll just avoid him and I'll tell Headmistress about this." I tried to keep him from coming down here.

"You sure?" he asked.

"Yeah. I'll be fine." I lied again. I knew I wasn't going to, but I had to keep him from coming. "I've got to go. I still need to put some of my clothes away."

"Okay. I love you, Yuki. Bye." Kaname's voice was soft and a blanket.

"I love you, too. Bye..." I said quietly, and hung up the phone. I climbed onto my bed. It felt empty, because Twinkie wasn't here to comfort me. I pulled my legs up to my chest and laid my head on my knees and tired to block out the outside world.
