Kill me, kill me, kill me, kill me, kill me!! I havent updated this in SOOO long!! Since August, I think it was. But after watching Grease twice on tv at 11:47 at night, it really got me in the mood to pick it back up again. Tis my new resolution! 8D
Usually, when it`s around three o'clock in the morning, everyone in the neighborhood would be sleeping soundly and happily in their beds, unless of course they couldn't sleep. Most nights, the Night class tried to keep the fact that they were vampires more of a secret by keeping the lights off and not making a racket. But this night was one of the exceptions. Every light on the main floor of the Moon dorms were light, and crashes and bangs along with loud yelling could be heard. They definitely weren`t going to sleep any time soon.
"This is going to be a long night," Rima sighed, her eyes watching the group of vampires attempting to practice their lines. Every time someone would utter one word, Akira would interrupt them and tell them to put more drama in it. Like she was the one to talk.
"Yeah, pretty much," Shiki sighed back, letting his arm dangle over Rima's shoulders. He was laid back as usual, and he was stretched out on the couch, making him seem a lot lankier than he actually was.
"Maybe they'll forget we're here if we don't say anything too loud," Rima suggested, slipping further down into the couch and glaring over at Shiki's loud cousin.
"Eh, it's worth a shot," Shiki added, letting a small chuckle escape his lips. He sat up straighter, taking the heavy weight of his arm off Rima's shoulders.
Rima layed down on the extra spaced he just made, trying to blend in with the couch as much as possible. After all the events in the day, she had no clue to how everyone could be so... full of energy. She was tired beyond belief. But she had also been working afterwards without Shiki, so that didn't help her stay awake either.
Letting a small yawn escape from her throat, Rima looked onwards into the room, trying to drown out the noise the others were making. Her eyes began drooping from exaustion, her vision blurring and the voices slowly softening.
Shiki chuckled and grabbed a small blanket, placing it gently over her to make sure she didn't wake up, since she was just that much irratible when she did. He tucked the blanket under her arms, just in case she got cold at as she slept, gave her hair a small ruffle and set her head down in his lap. He turned his attention to the others, who were still stuck on bickering about their lines.
"I am too saying it right!!" Aido yelled in frustration, steaming more than a teapot would once it's done boiling. He had it with being pushed around by Akira, who always had to say something was wrong with the way he was standing or how he was saying the lines. "What does it matter if it's a practice?!"
"It matters a lot. Do you want Shin to think you're inexperienced and kick you off the cast?" Akira was standing her ground, and she was doing it quite well. Aido looked in awe at her, trying to think of a way to freeze her in her sleep without anyone knowing.
"Since when were you saying things like that?? I thought you just wanted yourself to be in the movie, so why do you care about me?!" Aido did have a point. Akira wasn't exactly selfless. Almost everything she did was because she could get something for herself in return.
"Because. He'll start assuming we all can't act, then everything'll be cancelled," she answered back calmly, running her brush through her bush of hair. Akira didn't care who she was offending right now, even if it was a seventeen year old with the temper of a five year old.
That did it for Aido. He took a couple steps forwards, making his way slowly to Akira like an insane asylum patient, but someone reached out and grabbed his wrist lightly before he lost it completely.
He turned back and looked at who was holding him back, even though he really didn't have to. The only one who would step in between him and a fight would have to be the blue haired, topaz eyed friend of his.
Sakura's eyes were pleading, although she kept quiet. Her fingers tugged at Aido's fingers, and he obediently followed her, back to his spot on the couch. He couldn't help but smile a little bit at her face, which was still bright red from Aido trying to cheer her up.
"Aido, remember to take it easy on her. She's never been romantically linked before," Ruka taunted, trying to kill two birds with one stone. Sakura immediately let go of Aido's wrist and curled up to herself, looking down at her lap and going red. Aido thought he saw a small shine in the corners of her eyes, and he hoped that her cheeks weren't going to be damp within the next couple minutes.
"Hey!!" he screamed back, trying to salvage anything that was left of both of their reputations. Sakura; the one who never talked to anyone other than Aido, so she was deemed desperate, and Aido; the hopeless flirt who never got a date. "What's that supposed to imply?!"
"How much more retarded can you get?!" Ruka shrieked, quickly losing her patience. "It's obvious that Sakura wants in your pants. You're just too immature to notice it."
Sakura let out a terrified squeak and shoved her arms in front of her face, trying to block the blush that was raging on her cheeks. She cried silently from the embarassment, but mostly because she knew that part of it was true. She didn;t want to go that far with him, but she admitted to herself that she did want to be more than friends.
Aido lunged at Ruka, using as much power as he could to tackle her to the ground. He started to freeze her ankles and wrists so she couldn't fight back, and barked at her like he was a viscious gaurd dog.
"How DARE you do that, Ruka!! You're making her cry! You're getting just as bad as Akira!"
"Yeah, I don't really care. And this just proves that you feel the same. So ha," she told him rather emotionlessly, using her mind control to make him break the ice around her wrists and get off of her. She sat upright on the floor and crossed her legs, grabbing her script and reading it over again.
Steaming with rage, Aido took his head and shoved it in a pillow, screaming and venting into it. Why did Ruka of all people have the most useful power out of all of them?
He clambered up onto the couch beside Sakura, advancing a bit too quick on her for her own liking. Sakura climbed up to the top of the headboard on the couch, leaning back two inches every time Aido approached one.
"See? Now she's scared of me, nice going, Ruka!!" Aido hollered back, swinging his head back around and yelling at the girls. Of course, neither were paying attention. They were going through each and every line of the script, scrutinizing each word and every slightly romantic scene.
When he whipped his head back to face Sakura, though, their faces were merely centimeters apart. She had tried to escape by sliding down in front of him and hiding behind the couch, but nothing went as planned.
She was so startled, she scrambled higher up on the headboard, not noticing that she was perched on the edge, ready to fall any second. Her eyes were glowing so brightly, yet they had the look of horror in them as well.
"Sakura, why are you so nervous?" Aido asked curiously, staring into her eyes like a cat eyeing it's prey. It was the worst time he could've done that, though. Totally freaked out and pushed over the edge - literally, Sakura flipped backwards off the couch and landed on the floor in back of it, letting the crack of her head hitting the wood ring through the room, her foot twisting in ways that only an animal with no bones would be able to.
"Nice going, Aido! You could've just killed her! Now you're never going to get a date," Ruka stated, only slightly looking up from her script when she heard the loud crack of Sakura's skull hitting the wood. "Either that or you gave her brain damage."
"Mmm.... j-just shut up!!" Aido yelled back, bending over the spot where Sakura had fallen. She'd managed to land where there wasn't any blankets or pillows, which could've made the fall a lot less painful than it probably was. "I didn't try to."
"Aido, you give up when even your stalker is afraid of you," Akira added in, flipping another page in her booklet. "Or else you're just a sad excuse for a person."
And so another fight began, but this time between all three of them, which made Kain come in and break them apart to make sure they didn't kill themselves. What no one had noticed, except for one, was that Sakura was in serious need of help. Despite being a vampire, the back of her head had started to bleed on contact with the floor, and she was losing it, fast. She wouldn;t die from it - oh no. She wasn't losing that much. But she could potentially pass out from it, which would result in even more embarassment for her.
Shiki sighed as he looked over everything in the room. Everyone was playing their part perfectly. Ruka being a know-it-all, Akira trying to start a fight, Kain breaking them up, Aido bickering and making stupid remarks, Sakura too shy to cry out for help, Ichijo reading his manga in a comfy chair in between the readings, and Rima asleep on his lap.
But that was all that ross Academy ever was; a great big teenage soap opera. And as Shiki reached down to stroke Rima's hair, he couldn't help but wish it wouldn't be any other way.
A little more AidoxSakura, which I really need to get better at writing. Not as much Grease in this, but fear not! In a chapter or two they will start filming, I promise. 0w0
So tis byes for now! I need some sleep... it's about 2:24am here right now. And I'm not that tired, surprisingly. x3
