"Yuuki."

Kaname gently woke Yuuki by playing with her hair.

Yuuki opened her eyes and smiled.

"Good morning, niisama." she greeted.

"Good morning," Kaname kissed her forehead.

She quickly finished her breakfast, and went to the garden, like she always did.

She was thinking about last night's incident.

I... I drank Zero's blood last night... I...

She looked at the same flower she looked at the day before.

A human is supposed to be delicate. Like this flower here. A vampire is strong, but shameful.

She sighed. Maybe I'm just not used to this kind of thing.


Yuuki thought of going to the other dormitory, just for a quick walk around. She wanted to visit Yori, anyway.

"A..Aido-sempai," she poked Aido. "Hm?"

"Please tell Kaname-niisama that I'll be going to the other dormitory for a while. I want to see Yori-chan," she pleaded.

She got an okay from Aido, so she ran off, in her summer clothes.

She went inside the gate, and sat on a chair at the garden.

Oh how I miss this place! It's been a while.

"Yuuki-chan!" Yori came to greet her. "Yori-chan!"

The girls hugged.

"It's been a while! How's life at the other dormitory?" her best friend asked.

"It's fine. Just boring. I wanted to go out for a while." she replied.

"Oh, I miss you!" she hugged Yuuki again. "Are you really a...vampire now?"

Yuuki smiled shyly at her. "You can say that."

Yuuki saw Zero walking down the hall.

"Ah! Zero-kun! Yuuki-chan is here!" Yori called for Zero.

Zero saw Yuuki, but when on to the path he was going.

"Ugh, what a cold-hearted guy!" Yuuki laughed.

They talked and talked about things they missed, and Yuuki told her the things she had learn from being a vampire.

But beneath it all, she just can't seem to forget the night before.


After the long talk with Yori, Yuuki went over to the garden.

She walked around and sat. She thought things over.

Maybe... Maybe... I... I just...

"Yuuki." It was Zero.

"Oh, hi, Zero." she somehow feels dazed.

"I wanted to apologize again for last night." she smiled.

Zero took her hand and walked to a place they can't be spotted.

"Zero? What's wrong?"

Zero stared. He pushed Yuuki gently on a tree.

"Yuuki..." He whispered, as he neared his face to her. "I know it's been a while, and I know you can't reciprocate what I feel, but..."

"I love you."

Yuuki was speechless. She didn't know what to say.

"Zero..."

What's this? What is happening?

"I'm sorry, I...I have to go back now." she turned around and walked out.

Zero just stared after her.
