It had been a few days since everyone's little 'encounter'. It's been relatively peaceful, actually. Kaname's probably keeping them on a short leash. I laughed at the thought of Aidou on a leash. He would go crazy.

After Zero had stormed off somewhere, Yuuki and I had gone to the Chairman's office so we could report everything that had happened. He was obviously concerned when we told him about the girls that were there, but I seriously think he flipped out when Yuuki told him it was because she got injured. He, literally, went flying around the room screaming something about Yuuki dying. Talk about exaggrating...

We were able to leave soon after, however, when we convinced him that it was only a scratch and she wasn't going to die. When we got out, I told her to get herself cleaned up a bit and that I would take another look around campus to be sure no other students had snuck out.

*Flashback*

I had been walking out in the woods with no sign of others when I heard rustling come from some bushes to my left. I stopped and looked over seeing if whoever was there would come out. When no one did, I crept over trying not to scare them away. I pulled the bushes back quickly to find...

A deer?

Said creature was looking at me, startled. Like a deer caught in headlights. I thought. It was relatively smaller than what I thought it would be and it didn't have any antlers. "Must only be a baby." I said out loud. Realizing its situation, it quickly scampered off, most likely back to its mother.

"What are you doing?"

I think I might have jumped out of my skin. I turned, nearly falling in the process, to see none other than Akatsuki Kain standing where I had been walking before.

"God! You scared me." I breathed, putting a hand to my heart in the hopes of slowing it down.

He tilted his head slightly in response.

Noting I didn't answer his question, I stated, "I was taking one last look around campus for any students. I haven't found anyone, but I found a deer." I pointed behind me where it had disappeared.

He nodded, staring off behind me.

"So..." I said, breaking the silence. "Aren't you suppose to be in class?" I mentally kicked myself, Nice, Jazz. Way to make it MORE awkward.

He looked back at me, raising an eyebrow. "They ended a while ago." Was his response.

"Oh."

Silence enveloped us again. Not knowing what to say, I turned to leave when Akatsuki spoke.

"I'm sorry about ealier."

I turned back to face him. He was looking downcast at the ground.

"It's alright." I said, not really knowing exactly what he was sorry about, but wanting to cheer him up anyway.

"I don't know why I didn't stop Hanabusa." He continued to himself. "It would have deffinently been the smarter thing to do." His brow furrowed in thought. "The thought never really crossed my mind. I only thought of keeping you out of harms way." He looked back up at me in confusion.

My heart skipped a beat. What the hell is he talking about? I swallowed a lump that formed in my throat. A better question is: Why is my body acting this way?

He sighed, pulling me out of my thoughts, and shook his head. "Nevermind." He looked back at me, expressionless. "See you later." Then, he turned and walked off.

I stood dazed, watching him leave. Again. What... The hell...

*End Flashback*

I shook my head of my thoughts, pulling myself back to the classroom. The girls were all squealing in anticipation. The boys were all depressed. What did I miss?

"Well, tomorrow is Valentines Day." I heard Yuuki say to Yori.

Ooooh! That explains the boys...

"It's not lik we're gonna get any, anyway." A boy behind me complained.

"Damn those Night class guys..." Another said.

"Are you guys going to give anyone chocolate?" I asked Yuuki and Yori, leaning forward to get a better look at them both.

"I'm not planning on it." Yori stated.

"I'm not really, either..." Yuuki said hesitantly.

"Then what's that?" Yori and I said, pointing in front of Yuuki. She looked down, quickly covering the chocolate recipe in front if her with her arms.

"I-it's not for that!" She stuttered.

"Then what's it for?" Yori asked, skepticly.

"Uumm"

"You know," I started. "Someone's been staring at us for a while." I finished, looking back to see Zero glaring at Yuuki.

"You're a Perfect, but you're still going to give him chocolate?" He questioned.

"I-it's not like that!" She defended.

"Right." I breathed.

"I don't even know if I'll give him anything." She finished, having not heard me.

"Really? To Kiryu-kun?" I heard someone say. I turned to see three girls all hudled together. The one in the middle blushing because of the others outburst.

"Hey. That's right! We still have Kiryu!" One of the boys that complained earlier said.

"Yeah! Good grades, good at sports." The other said.

Zero, haven heard, turned to glare at them.

"No good..."

"He's no good..."

I sweatdropped, Zero...
