I do NOT own Vampire Knight!

Chapter 12:

"Yuri!" I hear a voice say. I whip my head around to see the Night Class walking this way.

"What do you want Hanabusa?" I ask him, annoyed.

"We were all invited," he said, looking at me innocently.

"No. You weren't," I tell them. They all hold up invitations. I scream inside my head. "Stupid Headmaster," I mutter under my breath.

"Can we stay?" Senri asks.

"Fine," I say, not wanting to be rude to Senri. Takuma climbs on and walks over to Yumi. Hanabusa also gets on. Everyone else goes and sits down on a bench. Why did they even come?

"Happy birthday," Hanabusa tells me, wrapping me in a hug from behind.

"Thanks, now get off of me!" I demand, struggling to get out of his grip. He lets go and I stare at him.

"I want to show you something," he mutters, grabbing my hand. We hop off of the trampoline and run into the nearby forest.

"Ah!" I scream, as I trip on a rock.

"Klutz," he calls me. He is smiling though, so it isn't meant to be mean.

"Yep," I say, agreeing with him. He stops and looks around. "Okay, what did you want to show me?" He reaches into his pocket, and pulls out... a marble? It's a pretty teal color. "Ooh!" I squeal, "Is it for me? A birthday present? I love it!" I say, reaching for it. He pulls his hand back.

"No. I just wanted to show you it. It's very special to me..." he says.

"Oh. Am I special to you?" I ask, hoping to make him squirm. He blushes.

"Uh, um, yeah." I smile at him.

"Now, what's with the marble?" I ask.

"Oh! I was doing an experiment, and-" After this, all I heard was blah, blah, blah. "-Kaname-sama."

"Wait. What does Kaname have to do with the marble?" I ask, and he looks at me.

"Were you listening?" he asks, sounding hurt.

"Uh, yeah! Why wouldn't I be...?" he looks at me, and I can tell he doesn't believe me. "Never mind," I say, not caring about my brother. "Want to see my treasure?" I ask.

"Sure," he says. I pull out my rock. I found it a long time ago, and it's very cool. It has a hole in it, so I put

a string through it, and I keep it in my pocket. He looks at it.

"Cool," is all he said.

"Hey, um. Can we get back to my party?" I ask. I turn around to start heading back, but his hand circles my wrist, and doesn't let go.

"I wanted to give you your present here," he tells me.

"What is it?" I ask, trying to not sound too overly excited. This is my first birthday that I can remember celebrating, and I'm in a pretty good mood.

"Close your eyes," he says. I close them. "Are they closed?" I nod my head. "Are you sure?" he asks, obviously trying to stall.

"Yes! Now what-?" I couldn't finish that sentence. Because... he kisses me.

How's that? :3 Please review!
