Another chapter another day. Well, enjoy.

Moi dun own Vampire Knight. There. Now can we stop demoralizing me?

(Keyoshi pov.)

"Whose there?" I shouted, hoping it was just my imagination. I wouldn't be able to concentrate enough if I had to fight something.

Then, out stepped someone I'd never have expected.

Takuma Ichijo.

"I'm sorry, did I startle you?" He asked.

"A little bit." I replied, wondering what he was doing here.

"I know I should have introduced myself sooner, but you looked so peaceful that I didn't want to disturb you." He explained.

"That's okay."

His emerald green eyes looked at me in wonder. As if in recognition.

"It's just that you ran away last time and I didn't get a chance to speak with you."

"Oh, that's Okay. I didn't really have anything to say." That much was true.

"Well, you already know, but I'm Takuma Ichijo. I suppose I could have the pleasure of knowing your name?" He said.

"Oh, I'm Keyoshi Natsakura." I introduced. My throat going dry. He didn't even remember my name. Every interaction that envolved me had been erased. Right now, I hated Asato and that Sara more than anything.

"Keyoshi Natsakura." He said testing the name. "I know you…. I just know I do."

Ichijo pov.

This was so fustrating. I saw her purple eyes regain that shiny glint.

"Would this help?" She asked as she held out her wrist. On it, was a glittering diamond bracelet.

I reached out, to touch it, but the second the tips of my fingers came in contact with it, a whoosh of memories flooded through me. It was like the bracelet had opened up some gate that I'd had locked up inside me.

Memory,

Where is it? Where is it? I asked myself. That new Kaichou-wa Maid-sama manga. It had to be here somewhere. The clerk said that she saw one here…

Then, something bumped into my side.

I looked down, and I saw a beautiful girl, but her perfect features were framed in a frown .I realized why. She'd bumped into me and had dropped all her books one particular one caught my eye. The new Kaichou-wa maid-sama manga!

Maybe she would let me borrow it if I showed the right charm…

"Oh my, I'm so sorry!" I apologized. I picked up the books smoothly and held them out. I threw her a dazzling smile, expecting her to start drooling over me. Half hopeful, half resenting. But she just scowled and took back her books.

"Thanks." She muttered and huffed past me, before I could ask her about the book.

I'd never gotten that reaction before. It made me curious.

But while I was standing there staring after her like an idiot, she bought the books and left.

"Wait!" I said, but she didn't even glance behind her.

I hurried after her, the bell tinkling behind me as the door closed. Why was I chasing after her? But I didn't have time to answer the question as she was quite a way away.

Perfect, just perfect. I told myself, as I wondered through the crowds. Why had I even chased her in the first place? She was just so intriguing…

I should go back…

Then I caught it. Her scent, it was like roses. It was a whiff, carried by the breeze, but it as enough.

I followed the scent, wanting to go back, but knowing I couldn't.

The scent led me to a forest, very far from where I had started. I walked through the trees, "What have I gotten into?" I said to myself, running a hand through my hair.

I stopped and sat down. Then, I heard humming, so sweet, It brought tears to my eyes. I followed the sound, determined to find where it came from. It led me to a clearing, in the clearing, there was the strong smell of Roses. Then, I saw her. Her purple eyes widened and I realized what a unique shade of purple they were.

Zero pov.

"She'll be fine." I told the frantic Yuki, "Quit worrying."

"I'm not worrying." She said as she desperately called Keyoshi's name again.

"KEYOSHI!!!" She cried, like the past 50 times, there was no answer.

"Look, our shift's almost over." I told her, "She probably left early or something and went back to the dorms."

"I'm scared about the 'or something.' Zero. "You should be looking for her as desperately as me. It's your fault we're looking."

"Then shouldn't I have the choice if I want to or not?" I grumbled

"I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that." She snapped. When she wanted to, she could be viscious.

Then, I caught a scent…It smelt like roses. "I know where she is." I told Yuki, following the scent.

"How?" She asked puzzeled.

"Just shutup and follow."

Silence.

Thank God.

Takuma pov.

"I remember…" Takuma turned to me, his green eyes wide open.

"How much do you remember?" I asked gently, putting my hand on his shoulder.

"Everything." He said as he put his hands on either side of my face and kissed me. It was light at first, but started to get stronger and stronger, his hands traced the contours of my waist and mine wrapped around his neck. I didn't want to let go of him. But I remembered that we needed to breathe. We broke apart to inhale, only to come back stronger than ever.

"I guess I broke my promise…." He murmured with his eyes closed his lips against mine. He tasted like… peppermint…..

"Just promise you won't break it again…" I told him.

"KEYOSHI!!!" I heard a familiar voice in the distance.

"Where are you!" Aw crap. It was Yuki. Leave it to her to break a perfectly good moment.

Ichijo chuckled, "I guess they're looking for you." But he didn't let go.

"You're right, I should go." But we continued to hold our embrace, his eyes burning into mine with love. Mine burned back.

"KKKEEEYYYYOOOOSSSHHHIIIII!!!!!" Cried the voice again, this time we broke apart, blushing a little.

"I'll see you again, I promise." He vowed.

"Just remember to keep your promise this time."

He laughed. "I will."

"Well, Bye."

"Good bye Key-chan."

I smiled at him and turned and walked away. I looked back and saw him staring after me, he was still standing there.

God, what was wrong with Yuki? I thought as I made my way through the forest.

Zero pov.

"Can we go back? She's probably fine, in her bed, asleep." I yawned. Thinking of sleep made me tired.

Just then, I heard a rustling behind me.

We turned around and sure as, out stepped Keyoshi.

"Keeyyooosshhiiii-ssaannn!" Cried Yuki as she raced over and threw her into a hug.

Keyoshi was startled.

"I'm sorry, did I worry you?" She asked.

I don't know if it was just me, but she seemed….happier…..a lot happier….

And I smelled something else… It was like…. Peppermint….

I know that scent.

"Did you run into vice president Takuma Ichijo?" I asked her, glaring.

Her eyes narrowed. "Yes. But he's on a one way trip to the moon dorms now."

She smiled, composing herself. "So, can we go back now? I'm tired."

"You better get used to it newbie." I told her, turning around to walk back.

"I hope so…" She grumbled.

I smirked.

"WAH. Zero…. You're…smiling…" Yuki exclaimed, staring wide eyed at my face.

"Where's my phone? I need to take a picture of this." Keyoshi teased, fumbling with her pocket with a big grin on her face.

My face composed back into its hostile 'Don't mess with me or die' face.

I glared at them. Yuki looked scared while Keyoshi laughed.

"Now there's the Zero we all know and love."
