Hi! I just want to say that I love Shiki and Rima pairing, but of course I love other pairing of Vampire Knight too. Please read and Review.
Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Knight.
Rima sighed over the balcony of her room as she watched Kaname and Yuuki holding hands under the moonlit park. It had been weeks since the incident with Rido, and they had already established their new home. Not long ago, Ichijou also joined them, asking for forgiveness from all of them for the way that he acted. Of course, he was immediately accepted by everyone again. Despite their newly established peace, Rima and Shiki still had a cold war ongoing. They hadn't properly talked with each other, except with few minor greetings.
There was a knock on Rima's door, and Ichijou entered.
"Are you alright Rima?" Ichijou asked? "Ever since I came back, I've noticed that you and Shiki hadn't been on good terms."
"I think he hasn't forgiven himself for hurting me, when he was taken over by Rido. I already told him that everything was okay, but he still doesn't think so." Rima sighed. "Why can't he understand that I forgave him because I love him?" Rima couldn't hold back her tears anymore.
Ichijou comforted her, giving her a hug, and holding her tight. She was still crying in his arms, not knowing that Shiki was standing below them, witnessing every inch of their movement. Ichijou on the other hand noticed this, and hatched up an idea. He led Rima to the room, and gave a glance at Shiki before closing the door.
'Just what is he planning?'Shiki asked himself.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the door…
"Rima, how would you like me to help you?" Ichijou asked.
"What do you mean?" She replied drying her tears.
"I figured I owe Shiki, so might as well return the favor."
" I guess… sure. What do I have to do?"
Ichijou smile in respond.
The next day, it was still morning and most of them were still asleep. Rima, on the other hand was awake, and quietly knocked on Shiki's door. The door was unlocked, and she stuck her head in.
"Shiki?" Rima asked very sweetly.
" Rima? Why are you here?" He responded grumpily. He still remembered that awful scene from last night.
" I was wondering whether you want to go to town with me?"
They didn't go out with each other except during photo shoots, but why start now. " Why don'y you ask Ichijou-sempai?" He said with sarcasm in the name.
"Oh… okay." Rima didn't bother arguing with him.
He was still sleepy, but somehow he couldn't go back to sleep anymore. It was already noon when Shiki went out of his room and saw Aidou on the living room.
"Aidou- sempai, where is Rima?" he asked.
"I think she went out with Ichijou. They said something about going on a date." He said obviously teasing him.
Shiki didn't think it was quite funny, but instead of beating Aidou, he immediately changed his clothes and went to find Rima. He couldn't explain why he wanted to find her. He somehow felt responsible for protecting her.
The sun was scorching hot, and Shiki was already out of energy. He decided to take a rest, when he saw people crowding over a store. Out of curiosity, he looked over, and asked what was going on.
"I think their shooting for something. They look like models, going on a date. They look perfect," said a lady.
He managed to get a peek of the two people, to his surprise saw Rima and Ichijou holding hands. Ichijou immediately saw Shiki, and bent over close to Rima's ear. She blush different shades of red when he lifted up his head from his ear.
What could have Ichijou said to make Rima blush? Want to find out. Read the next chapter to find out.
Thanks for reading. Plaese Review.
