Unloved
Chapter four: Unable
Zero & Yuki
Deep in the woods, under a large tree, laid Zero and Yuki. Yuki hugged her knees; her skin covered itself with goose bumps as she started to shiver. Zero decided to place his jacket around her. Zero had a dress shirt underneath the jacket so he wasn't that cold. Yuki kept her eyes on his face while he stared in to space. She lowered her gaze to his lips. She found herself craving for his kiss. With her warm hands, she reached for his cheeks. Zero quickly turned to her.
"What's wrong?"
He asked. Yuki quickly took her hands back.
"It's nothing."
Zero then turned away. He closed his eyes, hoping he would get some sleep. But, every time he closed his eyes, all he heard was a small cry. It was Yuki's voice. It repeated the same few words constantly.
But I love you…I love you…
I love you.
I love you.
He instantly opened his eyes. His heartbeats rapidly increased, beating faster and faster. He quickly turned to Yuki. As his eyes met hers, he had realized, that she had been starring at him all this time.
"Yuki…"
"Yes?"
"I…that is…I'm…"
"Zero, there is nothing to be afraid of. You can tell me anything."
Yuki assured him. Zero was unable to tell her the truth. He felt as if he had committed the biggest of all sins. Running away with a pureblood while he is on the edge of becoming a level E vampire. Meanwhile, Yuki had to control herself as well. Her craving for Zero's kiss had become a thirst for his blood.
"Yuki did you really mean what you said back then?"
"Back when?"
"When you said you loved me."
Without a word, Yuki wrapped her arms around Zero. She cried on to his chest. Zero's heart raced inside his chest, now, even faster than before. He became unable to say anymore. So Yuki began to speak.
"Zero…would I really lie about sometime like love?"
She cried. He stayed silent.
"Would I?!"
Yuki yelled as she demanded an answer.
"ANSWER ME!!"
Zero opened his mouth. He let out a small cry and then…he collapsed.
He fell on to Yuki. She couldn't hold him up and fell to the ground. Yuki had ordered Zero to get off her but he couldn't hear her. She had soon realized that he was unconscious. Unable to wake him, she let him lye on her…for the night.
