Chapter 2:
Class was pretty boring after that. Aido kept looking at me, and I'd glare back in response. I wasn't used to staying up all night and I fell asleep at some point. I felt my body shift and my eyes flew open. I was being carried by none other than Aido.
"What are you doing?" I ask, too tired to be that mad.
"You seemed tired, I was going to bring you to the Headmasters office," he says almost apologetically. I raise my hand, about to slap him, but it drops. I start to fall asleep again, but before my eyes close, I see him smirk.
This time when I wake up, I am in bed, and it is six hours later. I get out of bed to get something to eat. I walk out of my room and smell something terrible.
"What is that smell?" I ask to myself.
"Fried liver pate," Headmaster answers. "Want some?"
"No thanks," I answer. "Where are Zero and Yuki?"
"Class," he answers.
"Oh. Is it alright if I go over to the Moon dorms?" I ask. "I need to thank Aido for bringing me over here." And by that I mean, tell him to just leave me alone.
"Alright, I'll give you a pass so that you can get through." He scribbles a note and sends me off. I finally find my way to the Moon Dorms and I try to enter. I see an old guy sitting there.
"Headmaster Cross said I could come," I say, handing him the note.
"Fine," he grunts," go ahead." I walk to the door. Should I knock? Should I just walk in? What do I say I'm here for anyways? I decide that it doesn't really matter, and I just walk in. I see Aido and two guys talking. Aido stands up and pushes them out. He sighs and looks at me.
"Who were they?" I ask, referring to the two men.
"Just some people who want to use my genius mind. I'm not as stupid as you think I am." Aido states, hurt looking. I'm not going to fall for his boy-ishness.
"The only reason I came here is to-"
"Come in." Aido grabs my hand and pulls me in. "Everyone else is asleep, and those two woke me up. The least you can do is hang out with me."
"And why would you want to hang out with me? I'm not like the rest of you in the Night Class."
"How so?" he says, avoiding my question.
"I'm from the streets. I don't have any money. And I'm not very special." I say, ticking them off on my fingers as I say them.
"How was life like on the streets?" he asks, now on the couch.
"Different. I'm glad I'm here, though. Even if it means putting up with you." He makes a face. I laugh at it. "Well, I should be getting back. I just came to yell at you."
"For what?"
"Being the obnoxious you, duh? I'll let myself out," I say. I run out and I don't look back. I can't believe it. I'm starting to like him! How could I? I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. I have to repeat it, and tell myself it's the truth.
I'm so into the thinking that I don't notice a guy standing in the forest. I bump into him. I look up and see that it's Zero.
"Shouldn't you be in class?" I ask, knowing the answer.
"No," he says. It sounds higher pitched than usual. I grab his wrist.
"You're supposed to be in class. I'm bringing you to the Headmaster's office Zero!" I say while dragging him.
"I'm not Zero!" Zero whines.
"Then who are you?" I ask, unamused.
"I'm Ichiru. Zero's twin." Zero has a twin!
"Nice to meet you." I reach up and pat his head, which is hard because I'm a foot shorter than him. He grabs my hand and starts skipping. He drops something and I pick it up. It's a... green bear?
"Ichiru? Did you drop this?" He looks at it and snatches it from my hand very fast.
"Thank you. Want to be my friend?" he asks. I smiled.
"Of course. My names Yuri," I say.
"That's a pretty name."
"Thank you." I pat his head one more time and we walk back to the Headmaster's office. Ichiru holds my hand. He's kind of... strange. But I like it.
"Headmaster!" I call when I walk in.
"It's Father," he says. He looks at Ichiru.
"Zero, shouldn't you be at school?"
"Father, this is Zero's twin, Ichiru," I explain.
"Can I adopt you? Zero won't let me adopt him," Headmaster says.
"Uummm." Ichiru looks nervous. So Yuri to the rescue!
"Where will Ichiru be staying? He is staying, right?"
"Of course! We don't have any more rooms available though."
"I can stay with Yuri!" Ichiru suggests, sounding an awful lot like a child.
"No, that simply will not do!" Ichiru pouts."You can stay with Zero!" Headmaster exclaims. Ichiru jumps up and down saying "Yay! Zero!"
"Yuri," Headmaster says, "It's time for you to go to class."
"Yes Headmaster..." I mumble. I scuff my feet as I walk out the door. I walk to the building. I don't have to walk through those girls, so I get there early. I use the extra time to find a dark spot to sit, where no one can see me. Today, it's in the far back corner on the floor.
The rest of the Night Class walks in and I hold my breath. I hear footsteps coming closer to me and I pray that it isn't Aido. Kaname takes my hand and pulls me up.
"W-what are you doing?" I stutter. He takes me out of the room and we walk down the hall. "Excuse me, could you please let go of my hand." I say sternly, "I can walk by myself." He doesn't respond.
"Yuri..." Kaname says.
"Yes?" I squeak. He sits me down on a couch.
"I have something to tell you. I'm only telling you because I think it will be to your benefit." I stare at him blankly. He continues,
"You are Yuki's twin. So, that would mean that I am your big brother. You are a Pureblood."
"Okay? Can I get back to class now?" I stand up, walking back without waiting for an answer. When I walk in, Aido is staring daggers at me.
"What?" I ask rudely.
"What were you doing with Lord Kaname?" he asks with an equal tone in his voice.
"I'm his sister, apparently? So I guess I'm a pureblood."
