-x-X-x-
Zero, as previously recalled, doesn't like coldness, so it would only make sense that he likes warmth, right...? So the source of a rather constant and pleasant-smelling heat in front of him totally suited him. His body's internal clock told him that the sun was once again setting and it was time to get up, but he just snuggled closer into the firm object before him that was radiating warmth, nuzzling and practically curling into it. It was so comfortable, Zero could have lain there for hours, even if it was summer and the room was plenty warm already. Besides, it wasn't as if he got a chance to get under the covers yesterday... because of...
"Is this how humans greet each other when they wake up?" came a soft purr, the low rumble of the question vibrating near his ear.
With a slight flinch, Zero's eyes shot open.
A soft, slightly amused chuckle, "Well then, Kiryuu-kun, good evening to you, as well."
After a few seconds of silence, the hunter launched himself to the other side of the bed and glared at a certain pureblood like a cornered cat. Kaname just smirked wider and it pissed Zero off to no end.
"F-Fuck you, Kuran..." he hissed quietly, tearing his eyes from the smiling vampire on the farther side of the bed before he ended up blushing harder. He had been freaking rubbing up against him like a... like... Well, he didn't know what, but he had been doing it and he was so humiliated... again. He clicked his tongue when he felt his cheeks heating up even more anyway... "Damn..."
Ignoring the sound of Kuran moving from his position on the bed, Zero rose from his side and made his way to the attached bathroom to half-hide, half-get-ready-for-the-day. He shot one more glare over his shoulder for good measure before slamming the door behind him. He heard Kaname laugh in that stupid regal way that he does.
Seething, Zero stripped violently, throwing the clothes onto the tiled floor. Who the hell does he think he is... He closed his eyes and took a deep breath as he turned on the water... Just calm down. The hunter recalled his thoughts before he made himself fall asleep in his spot nearly under the pureblood. They were just playing around. While they were here, at least, they could be more friendly to each other and apparently Kaname teased his friends... At least, that's what Zero was gathering from this strange behavior... He sighed, turning on the shower component and stepping in, sliding the translucent door closed. Zero knew that he could have been a bit more nice to Kaname just a few seconds ago, but he was sure that the pureblood didn't mind too much- he had laughed. Anyways, the way they were on the bed- still in more or less the same position- then Kaname must have not minded much. He didn't look offended by Zero's insinctive cuddling either...
The light-haired vampire calmed a bit with the slightly warm water running over his body. Okay, well, Zero was playing around too, then. When he got out, he would be more polite- he could do that. Yuuki would also like it if her two boys got along better, if not at school then at least on a field trip.

Apparently, Zero was extremely hapless and his life decided that now was a good time to test his decision to continue being nice to the pureblood. In his haste to escape the pureblood's infuriating grin, the hunter forgot to grab a towel and his change of clothes. He gingerly stepped out of the shower and onto a rug and looked around the bathroom after bundling his pajamas and sitting them on the sink... He growled. What kind of hotel doesn't have a towel shelf in the bathroom? And there was no sign of robes either! There were hooks in here but the only towel in here was a hand towel for the sink. Zero was seriously considering about suing... or at least complaining.
Well now what? He couldn't very well just walk out into his room to call someone up with a towel... His room was now occupied by two people. Hm... That's it- he could just ask Kaname for help. Zero's stomach ached at the thought of even talking to Kaname while he was naked. The hunter was a private person- he even hated it when he was in a public restroom and, while he was using the facilities, other men spoke to him. Really? Why would they do that? So now, as he was dripping everywhere, Zero gulped and opened his mouth, pretending he was fully clothed.
"Um... Kuran?" he called, a little louder than his normal voice.
From somewhere in the room, he heard, "What is it?"
Zero shifted his weight uneasily from one leg to another.
"I forgot a towel... and my clothes. Is there anything out there for me to dry off with...?"
After a moment of no response (and a few moments of Zero getting impatient), Kaname's voice sounded and it was much closer to the door than it was before. Zero started a bit and he held back his ire from being startled.
"You didn't see the bureau out here?" the pureblood asked.
Zero just blinked.
"It is right next to the door and it's got all of the towels and a few robes, among other things..." the tone in the pureblood's voice changed to that of playfulness. "But I suppose you didn't notice it in your hurry to hide from me."
Of course, Zero rose to the bait and he snapped, "I wasn't hiding from you!" (See sentence where it says he was half-hiding...) "Just get me a towel and a robe, Kuran!"
"I don't think you are in a position to ask me like that, Kiryuu-kun."
The hunter's lavender eyes widened slightly at that.
"What are you talking about...?"
A shiver ran up Zero's spine despite the warm room when Kaname said softly, "Say please and I might give you your things."
"K-Kuran..."
A gentle thump was heard and Zero figured Kaname was leaning back on the bathroom door. When the older vampire spoke, the hunter could hear his smirk.
"It shouldn't be too hard, Kiryuu-kun."
The younger vampire clenched his fists by his bare hips and his face tinted slightly. Obviously, Kaname was a sadistic bastard and he must not get a chance to play often. Zero told himself that a few times and he just murmured, "You're having too much fun with this..."
Kaname hummed a laugh and replied, "Entirely too much."
Zero wondered if he could talk his way out of verbally submitting and he appealed to a vampire's sensual nature by using a softer voice and saying, "Can I at least have the towel so I won't catch a cold... Kuran-senpai?"
The hunter had to put a hand over his mouth to stifle the giggles that threatened to ruin his plea. Senpai! He was too good... Once he got a towel, he could dry off and just walk out with it around his waist. He would have much preferred to be fully dressed when he left, but... he had already rode on Kaname's shoulders in swimming wear and they were both men, so he could handle it until he got some underwear and pants on. Zero rather enojyed the hesitation this time and smirked. Don't like it when someone teases you back, huh, Kuran?
"If you're worried about getting sick, then I could always come in there and keep you warm, Kiryuu-kohai... You seem to enjoy my warmth."
Zero nearly jumped back as if Kaname had appeared before him in the bathroom and his face burned red. His muscles tensed and after recovering slightly, he moved his mouth wordlessly. His voice didn't seem to want to work right now...
Suddenly, the door opened and lightning-fast, a towel and Zero's bag were thrown in before the door clicked shut once more. Zero's legs flexed and for a single horrible second, he wanted to run forward and grab the door and fling it back open. His reflexes were just as fast as that door opening and he saw it just like a human would see another human opening the door.
Kaname had opened it enough for Zero to see him standing profile-style, head turned towards the door, and the silver-haired vampire's shocked eyes had locked with lonely-looking mahogany ones for a fraction of a second.

"Fwaaah~"
Zero quirked a bit of a smile in the direction of the yawn. Yuuki's eyes were barely open when she offered a bashful smile back. He just shook his head before turning back to the spread of breakfast foods before everyone on the table. They wouldn't have enough time to properly sit and eat so everyone was to take something to eat in the limo and black Charger that brought them here. (The whole thing had kinda been paid for by Kaname...)
Speaking of limousines and other fancy things, Zero couldn't seem to stop thinking about those vulnerable eyes that had looked back at him before the door shut again. It was so strange to even see anything but command and control from the pureblood and it made the hunter wonder if he was just imagining things. But the way he looked...
"Zero?"
"Huh?"
Yuuki, with a muffin in tow, motioned for him to hurry up before Aidou taunted her outside into the night. Zero reached out and grabbed whatever was nearest him, snatched up a square of wax paper to wrap it with and jogged outside as well. He noticed that Kaname had not appeared to get food. Zero had left the room after he got dressed because Kaname avoided eye contact on his way into the bathroom and the younger vampire didn't like awkwardness...
--
Well, apparently Kaname wanted Yuuki in the car with him ,and Yuuki wanted Zero with her her so, of course, the three shared the Charger. The other nobles sat in the limo (much to Aidou's disappointment). Yuuki wanted a window seat in the back where the three were sitting, so even though the car was rather spacy, that meant Zero had to sit next to Kaname- they didn't have the heart to make her sit in the middle when she looked up at them so cute and sleepy...
But now Zero was all tension as he tried not to look at Kaname. He looked at Yuuki- she had dozed off after eating her muffin and was leaning against the window. The hunter was in the middle so he couldn't look out of a window. He looked at the floor- it was really clean for a car. He looked at the wax-wrapped food in his hand. He'd forgotten about his food...
Grateful that he'd found something to hold his attention, he carefully unwrapped it as the car made its way back to Cross Academy. The crinkling had alerted Kaname who was looking out into the night blurring past, but Zero pretended not to notice. He wrinkled his nose slightly at what he had randomly obtained. An éclair? Zero didn't particularly love sweet things like this, but if it was custard-filled rather than cream-filled, he'd be okay...
Guuuu...
Carefully, Zero looked to his right to see the pureblood scowling at the pastry. Vampires' stomachs growl? Well, the silver-haired vampire figured that it made sense but having something so ungraceful coming from Kaname was weird. This whole trip was weird, God... He looked back down at his food and then back to Kaname, who had continued to look out of the window, but it was too late. Zero's natural urge to care for people had kind of activated. He sighed.
"Kuran, why didn't you get anything to eat?"
Without turning around, Kaname said, "I was attending to something and if I had stopped to get some food, we would have been late."
Zero glared at the side of the brunette's head. Why was he acting all bitchy now? Here Zero was, trying to be nice just like he promised himself he would, and now Kaname's being rude. He wasn't even looking at him when he spoke!
The hunter sat up straighter and growled, "Hey."
Kaname turned his head slightly so he could glare back in the corner of his eye.
Holding that auburn glower, Zero so wanted to grill him... But when Kaname looked at him now, the hunter could still see something flickering behind the pureblood's aloofness. So instead, he forced himself to soften his expression and he said, "If you were hungry, you should have gotten something."
Oddly enough, the older vampire turned a little more and his face also lightened. He still looked a bit conflicted with something, but his body knew that what Zero was saying was true and his eyes darted down to the éclair before coming back up to look into the other vampire's eyes. Kaname just stared at him, making Zero squirm in his seat slightly.
"Um... If you want... you can have mine. I don't really like sweet things."
Zero held the food up slightly for Kaname to take. Once again, his guard was down in the face of Kaname's peculiar behavior and when the pureblood smiled secrectively, the hunter just narrowed his eyes in wariness. A delicate hand came up to raise Zero's éclair-holding hand up farther so that it was level with Kaname's mouth. The ex-human froze when the mostly brown eyes darkened to a deep maroon, but he just raptly watched when those smoldering eyes shut slowly. Tilting his head to the side a bit, the pureblood's lush-looking lips parted just enough to accommodate the sweet and Zero's breath caught in his throat as Kaname wrapped his mouth around the soft treat. The hunter wasn't quite sure what he was looking at, but he sure as hell knew what it was reminding him of... But all thoughts simply ceased to be once Kaname bit down and pale custard decided to ooze out a tiny bit at one corner of the brunette's mouth before he drew back.
Feeling a little dizzy, Zero couldn't tear his eyes away from the sight of Kaname idly chewing and swallowing as if what just happened wasn't one of the most erotic things the younger vampire had ever witnessed. Of course, when Kaname wiped the custard from his mouth with his index finger and then sucked it off of the tip, Zero's brain decided to catch up and the hunter blushed deeply before turning away abruptly.
When the car finally reached the school, Zero could have sworn he heard a very low chuckle.
