Kumi: Hi! So I'm editing this chapter again. Thanks for all those who have been reading my stories and for everyone who favorites it. Also, I won't forget to thank the people who reviewed. I've started changing a lot starting the last chapter and this 4th chapter will be completely different from the last chapter four.

Zero: Fine. Stop talking.

Kumi: I don't want.

Zero: Why are you so damn-fucking rebellious?

Kumi: Just because. Then, let's ignore this cute little Zero and start!

Zero: Who are you calling little?


Fearless Nights

4th night: Giving Up


Zero slept again in class and was ordered to stay for detention, leaving Kaito alone for the prefect duties. He was not in the mood for any job today. After that 'fight' with Aimi last night, he couldn't concentrate in anything at all. Everything was out of his mind. He made his way to the chairman's office and upon opening the door, he saw Aimi with Kaien and Yagari. It happened again. "Wh-why are you here again?" He asked not looking at her. She was wearing her hair in a bun and wearing those same eyeglasses in the past.

"Kiryuu-kun…" She muttered. "I… I was talking about work with Kaien-senpai and Yagari-senpai." She explained and looked away as well. She then stood up. "Would you mind to have a little chat?" She asked. He turned to her a little surprised by her question. Zero quickly composed himself.

"Why don't you go, Zero-kun?" Kaien said. "It wouldn't be bad, right?" That said and done, the two took off, walking beside each other.

"What do you want?" Zero asked, irritated and mad about walking with a vampire. Aimi didn't reply and instead, she looked up still walking. "Hey!" Zero called making her flinch.

"Well, it has been a while. Is that what I should say?" She asked turning to the annoyed Zero. She smiled. "Actually, I missed your company." Aimi admitted. "How about you? Did you miss me?" She asked hopping in front of him making him jump a bit. He turned away and didn't answer right away.

"Why would I miss a vampire?" He asked but in truth, even if just a little, he did miss her. He looked at Aimi who turned around. He sighed. She was probably mad now. "We-ll. You. You haven't changed one bit." He commented, changing the topic. She turned around pouting. That was the same reaction she would give him every time she's disappointed. "I… did miss you. Just a bit." He had to say that. She smiled and the beamed to him, pulling him in a tight hug. "He-Hey!" He yelled, shocked by this.

"Zero! I missed you a lot!" She said. He let her hugged him. Tears are present in her eyes as she hugs the taller boy. Then, After a few moments, Zero lightly pushed her, making her wonder as to why he did that. "Zero?" She asked confused.

"This will be the first and last." He stated.

"Wh-What do you mean?" She replied as if she doesn't know.

"Things will never be the same like in the past." He stared down and Aimi looked hurt. He turned around and she was about to stopped her but in the end she stood still. He walked away not speaking another word to her. No, they will never be. She thought to herself. She raised her hand up as if trying to chase the fading shadow of Zero. This was the last time. She cried and then Aimi fell on her knees crying. She then looked up to see Kaname.

"Kaname-nii-san." He bent down to her level and then hugged her, comforting her. Her eyes widen by his sudden movement. "Kaname-nii-san?" She asked. "I'm fine." Aimi said and he pulled back to look at her crimson eyes. "Don't worry about me." She comforted, trying not to worry her so-called brother more.

"You're my little sister." He stated. "I can't stop worrying about you." He added. She smiled and then patted his head. She stood up and he followed. "Don't cry anymore." Kaname continued. She nodded.

"I'll start anew." Aimi replied. "Maybe I'll try to forget about him too." She smiled. "This is sure weird." She turned around, her hands behind her. "I should give up, right?" That question wasn't directed to him. She was talking to someone else entirely. She spun around and revealed her smiling face. But in her eyes are saying that she was upset. "Isn't that right, Kaname-nii-san?" She asked.

"Are you really okay?" She nodded but did not direct his sight away. She was smiling sincerely but it was not like the happy smile she used to have. "Then, shall we head back?" He asked but she shook her head. "You're not coming?" She just smiled again.

"I want to be alone for a while." He nodded and then he turned to leave. Once he was out of sight, she took a deep breath in and smiled. "ZERO!" She yelled and then relaxed after taking that out. She spun around and stopped to look up and stare at the huge moon in sight. "What should I do?" She asked herself. "He gave up on me." She added to her past comment and then she smiled a bit sadly. "Should I give up?" She talked again in monotone. Who was she talking to anyway? She then smiled. "I shouldn't give up because..." She paused. "...that wouldn't be fun." She ended.

"What wouldn't be fun?" A voice from the darkness asked. A figure stepped out of the shadows and revealed the face of the other prefect, namely Kaito. She laughed nervously and scratched her hair a bit, messing some of it.

"No, It's nothing." She then smiled her sincere and sweet smile and stood straight. "Then, I'll be leaving." She ran from away from his sight, leaving the prefect confused about the pureblood's behaivor. Are they supposed to be like that but what confused him most is a certain feeling. He couldn't pinpoint which one is it. Is he...embarassed? No, he was not embarassed but rather charmed with her smile. Are those the same smile that she always gave Zero? Is this what he always felt when she smiled at him like that? Those questions ran into his mind. Her smile was sincere and sweet. Is this how you always felt, Kiryuu-senpai? He asked to himself.

He then thought about Zero and Aimi's relationship. They loved each other in the past but now it was the complete opposite. They hated each other, or at least wanted to. He pitied them. Even if they still love each other, it was futile. She's a pureblood and he's hunter. To top it all, he hated her kind. It was so dramatic.


Kumi: And that's about it. I know it's short and all but please don't kill me. I'll be focusing on this story more so please review.

Zero: (yawn) Finally. You could finished this earlier if you wouldn't took a break and then eat every 30 minutes or less. I'm telling you, you're getting fatter by the minute.

Kumi: I'm not fat!

Zero: Yes you are.

Kumi: Am I fat, Kaname-kun?

Kaname: I think you're cute.

Kumi:(sobs)I am fat... and they call me chibi too.
