Bloodred: Hey ppl! Here's a bonus chappy. It tells you how Zero ended up in India and Ichiru in Estonia . And for those of you who have never heard of Estonia here is a wiki page to copy and paste into your browser about it- .org/wiki/Estonia
Sorry for using such a little known country, but I was listening to Kerli, and that is where she is from. Well, anyway, on with the bonus chappy!
How I found myself lost in India…(Zero's POV)
" It's all his fault. It's all his fault…" I thought over and over again as I sat on the flight from India on the way back to my home, Japan. I hate it when Ichiru pulls some fucked up, bullshit, idiotic move like this. My memories of what happened this to us earlier this weekend flooded back into my mind…

Flashback:
I walked cheerily back into the house after a long afternoon outside with my friends. Ichiru decided to stay in again. He should go out more. He's way to pale to sit inside all day hiding from the sun…
Inside, tapped to the fridge, I discovered a note written in Ichiru's messy handwriting.
"Dear family,
If your wondering where I am right, I'm on my way to America. I no longer feel appreciated here. You guy's probably wont even notice I'm gone. Good bye and Good riddance.
-Ichiru"
Great. Now I have to find the little retard. Cant he behave himself for two friggen seconds?
I quickly packed my clothes, my toothbrush, and mom's credit card. I wrote my parents a quick note about the situation. I called a cab. I reserved a ticket for a flight to America online. I just hope I make it there and find Ichiru quickly. That way I can kill him sooner…
I got to the airport and picked up my tickets. But they must have been for a different flight, because the next thing I knew, I was on a flight headed to India.
And things just kept getting better. I called Ichiru's cell phone, and guess what! He was on his way to some place called Estonia. Apparently, the flight to America wasn't scheduled for another 5 hours and the only other options where Estonia or India. And, of course, he picked Estonia.
So, since I was stuck here, I called a hotel and made reservations.
When I got to the airport, I explained the situation to the man in charge.
" …and that's how I ended up here." I said finally. He was a very distinguished man. Tall and strong looking. He had an air of dignity about him. He had brown skin and black hair. The only bad part was that his eyes were blood red and he reeked of vampires and blood. But I said nothing. I was taught not to attack a vampire without good reason.
"Oh, I see your problem. Then I shall have a first-class flight arranged for you to fly to America immediately. We're terribly sorry for this mistake, Sir." he said calmly.
" It's okay. But, I've decided to just head back to Japan instead." I said. I was trying very hard to hide the annoyance in my voice.
" Alright, but the next flight to Japan that I can have first class seating arranged on is for Sunday afternoon at 5:30. Is that okay?" he said.
" Yes, that'll be just fine." I said. I was just glad to go home.
For the rest of the weekend, I hung out in my hotel. There was a bunch of girls there from a private school on a field trip, so I hung out mostly with them. Most of them were really cute, but kinda shy, so I didn't bother asking anyone out.
The day of my flight, I called my parents to tell them I was coming home. I had been ignoring their calls all weekend. I was too upset to answer. Mom was really worried.
" How could you just leave and not answer our calls!?!?" ,she said. "Do you know how worried I was?"
"Sorry mom. But you shouldn't worry, I'm fine. I got on the wrong flight and now I'm in India, but I'll be home in a few hours." I replied calmly. Sometimes, mom just overreacts a little…
"Don't tell me not to worry! You're my SON. What would I do if something happened to you?" she said, getting close to tears.
" Mom, you'd still have Ichiru. Speaking of which, is he there?" I questioned. On Saturday, Ichiru had called me, saying that he didn't like Estonia. He decided to head back home. His flight was in that evening, so he should be home.
"That's not the point, zero. But yes, Ichiru just got home last night. Do you want to speak with him?" she asked, a little frustrated. Me and Ichiru had caused her a lot of trouble.
"Yes please.", I said. I waited for Ichiru's voice.
"Zero?" said a squeaky voice. He sounded tired.
" Hey Ichiru. Jetlag?" I questioned.
" Yup. I got home around midnight and I've been sleeping all day." he said tiredly.
" Alright. Then get plenty of sleep. Oh, and make sure you have an ambulance ready for when I get home." I said nonchalantly.
" Why?" he said with curiosity. Ichiru can be so dumb sometimes…
" Because, I'm going to KILL YOU when I get home!" and with that I hung up the phone and prepared to leave for the airport.
End Flashback

As my flight got closer to home, I began to wonder why Ichiru would even think of leaving home.
"I no longer feel appreciated here. You guy's probably wont even notice I'm gone."
That must be it. Ichiru feels like we don't need him. That he's just another burden. And he's right.
Ichiru only ever causes problems. And I'm always picking up the slack for him. Ichiru's a terrible hunter. Even our parents and Touya sensei think so. And he's always sick. He can hardly go outside. He doesn't have any other friends but me.
That may be true, but without him, I don't know who we'd be. Ichiru brings out the best in us. And he's my best friend. I would probably be a very sad person without him. Ichiru is my other half and if I lost him… well I don't want to think about it.
And we would notice if he was gone. He may be an idiot, but he's our idiot. So it's ok.
As I thought about how Ichiru felt about all this, I felt my anger towards him melt away. I hardly ever stay mad at him for very long.
When I got home that day, Ichiru was waiting in our room.
He was holding my old teddy bear to his chest and he looked very scared.
I raised my fist like I was gonna punch him and he flinched. But I thought about and lowered my hand. Then I tackle-hugged the idiot.
"AHHH! Zero, your crushing me!!!" he screamed.
"Don't you ever even think of running away again Ichiru! And I would too notice if you're gone! Don't you ever scare me like that again! Do you hear me? You are not aloud to run away ever again!" I yelled at him while still hold pinned to the floor. He looked up at me, shocked.
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?", I questioned. " Is there something on my face?"
"Yeah. Tears. Your… crying?" , he said. I reached up and touched my cheek. He was right. I was crying
I sat up and wiped the tears off my face.
"Shut up! I am not! I just got an eyelash in my eye!" I shouted, shoving him off.
" You are crying! You really did miss me!" he said excitedly as he tackled me.
" Well, don't worry about me. I promise not to leave you again." he whispered into my ear. I almost started crying, but then Ichiru went back to be stupid again…
"Zero! Get off! Your crushing the teddy!!!" he screamed as he shoved me off. He picked up his teddy and sat back on the bed, cuddling the damn thing. For Christ's sake, it's not even his bear!
Like I said, he may be an idiot, but he's my idiot. So it's okay.
