Consider the Possibility

Chapter Three

Yuki's Point of View

Slowly, I came back to consciousness, of two things I was instantly certain: I had a killer headache and I definitely wasn't in my room.

I attempted to stretch my body only to find something heavy laying on my stomach. I was border-lining a freak out moment until I realized that the arm looked really familiar. I looked down at the offending arm and followed it up to the owner. I found myself staring into the wine colored eyes of Kaname. He smiled softly at me.

"I'm glad you're okay, Yuki." His eyes were soft toward me. "You scared me quite a bit, passing out in the fountain like that." I turned on my side of face him, the small act made me slightly dizzy. I felt Kaname's hand brush my cheek, his thumb running over my cheekbone. His hand was warm, the arm that still rested across my waist was warm. I found myself craving that warmth. I inched closer toward him, until my forehead was touching his chest. Hesitantly, I wrapped my arm around his waist as well.

"Each time," I whimpered, nuzzling deeper into Kaname's chest, "I try to remember my past, the pain becomes unbearable." I could feel Kaname running his fingers through my hair. The action slowly calmed me. "That's why I need to know-what you know-about it. I feel like that if I try to remember again, I won't wake up."

"Yuki." Kaname's voice sounded so pained. I looked up at him. "You'd wake up." His tone was low. His eyes were even more so pained than that of his voice. "I couldn't live in a world, where you didn't exist." I felt fear crash through me at his words.

'He does mean that. But I feel the same. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be here now. He is my beginning and he will by my happy ending.' I vowed in my head as his hands slid underneath my arms and pulled me up so that I was level to him.

"You are my everything, my light." I could feel tears prickling behind my eyes. "I meant what I said, I love you. You are the only one for me."

"Kaname.." I whispered, before leaning in a touching my lips gently to his. I could smell his scent on the pillows, he was everywhere. His very presence had me reeling. I pulled away. He followed me and pecked my lips again. Each peck he delivered was longer than the last. "I love you." He smiled against my lips.

"I love you as well." His lips brushed against mine, his breathe rushed onto my sensitive lips. A shiver passed through my body. He kissed me once more, the kiss that started out as a peck quickly turned to something heated. A small moan escaped my lips, it was followed by a burning blush. Kaname pulled back with a smile, he nuzzled my neck. "I'm glad to see that I affect you in such a way." The pride and happiness in his voice almost made me laugh had I not still been recovering from the kiss.

"Hm, don't get to cocky." I breathe. I can feel him chuckle against my neck. He places a kiss on my neck before pulled up to look at me, a smile on his lips. He leans forward once more, his lips pressed to mine once more. I smiled against his lips, then flipped him so that I was sitting on his hips. He looked up at me in shock. I smiled widely before leaning down and pecking his lips once, twice, three times before kissing him heatedly.

Kaname ended the kiss, small pants coming from in between his parted lips. I smiled down at him before pecking his lips once more.

"I love you, forever." He declared, his lips claiming mine in a gentle, loving kiss.

"Forever?" I mumbled, a wave of pain crashed through me.

"Brother what does forever mean?" The same little girl was sitting on the same boy. Both looked very content to be where they were.

"Forever." Kaname vowed. I smiled at him, hoping that I hid my pain well. That is until another wave hit:

A very beautiful woman's smiling face flashed before my vision.

A whimper escaped my lips, I laid my head on Kaname's chest and waited until the pain would go away.

"Yuki?"

"Just hold me for a little while, Kaname." I breathed, trying to keep the pain and sadness out of my voice.

'Are these pieces of my memory? These little flashes? Why does it hurt each time they appear?' I wondered as Kaname's fingers ran through my hair, his other arm still wrapped around my waist. I never left my position. He didn't seem to have any complaints if I were making him uncomfortable.

"I wish I could hold you for much longer than that." I didn't know if I were meant to hear his whisper, but the raw pain in it cut me worse than any blade. I kissed the cloth that covered his chest, right above his heart.

"Forever, right?" I reminded. He nodded, a slight shocked look in his eyes. I too nodded and sat up so I could kiss him lips, while I attempted to ignore the spasm of pain that remained. His body seemed to relax even further underneath me as he responded. I pulled away.

"I need to get you home." Kaname mumbled as he kissed me again. "But I don't want to let you go." He kissed me once more. I found myself without reply as his lips continued. "Do I have too?" He turned his eyes toward me, a pouting look entered them.

"I would love to stay here with you, Kaname." I whispered, before kissing his lips that were set in a perfect pout. I pulled away, "But I can't, at least, not yet. I would love to spend forever in your arms." His eyes steadily widened in shock. "I meant every word I said that day at the ball." He kissed me gently. I felt his hand slide up into my hair as he kissed me.

"I love you." He whispered against my lips.

"I love you as well." I used his reply against him before slipping off of him. I felt the loss of his warmth immediately and I immediately missed it.

"Come on." Kaname wrapped his arms around my waist and before I knew what was happening we were standing in front of the house I shared with my adoptive father and Zero.

"Freaky vampire powers." I mumbled.

"You know you love them." He whispered against my ear. I attempted to suppress the shudder that threatened to rip through me at the way his lips brushed against my ear.

"Yes, I may love them, but they are going to be the very thing that will spoil me in the long run."

"Maybe." He turned me around quickly, I gasped at the action but before I could question him about what he was doing, his lips met mine in a passionate kiss. I melted against him, once more thankful that his arms were holding me. He pulled away until his forehead rested upon mine. "I love you." He repeated.

"I love you." I smiled and walked up the stairs. I blew a kiss at him and walked into the house, where I met a displeased Zero and a smiling Chairman.
