Zero woke up long before Anna did, which wasn't a shocker. She had just spent the last week taking care of his injured, useless self. She defiantly needed a break. He looked up at the stars. He probably only slept for about three hours.
Zero found Anna's lighter and proceeded to start the fire. He didn't really need it, the cold didn't really bother him, but he could tell that Anna was shaking. He wasn't sure if it was from the cold but he didn't want to risk her getting hypothermia.
Why do you even care? You should kill he while you still have the chance. He pushed away the vampire part of him that wanted nothing more than to devour her and let his human emotions take over, something he hadn't done in awhile.
He didn't really know what this girl meant to him. He hardly knew her but he felt fiercely protective of her. He wanted to keep her safe.
It's probably because she saved my life. If she hadn't been there I would have survived getting hurt like that. Even if I did that vampire, Adrian would have killed me. Yeah, that's defiantly it.
But then, why did feel like this earlier. When I sensed what Adrian was all I wanted to do was to get her out of harm's way, even if it meant letting Adrian live. Zero put his head in hands. He didn't want to admit that he had feelings for this girl that he hardly knew.
It doesn't matter what my feelings for her are. She still likes that Adrian guy, even though she was the one who killed him. He shook his head, clearing his thoughts. Even, though he had known that, he had still pretty much tried to hit on her earlier. If that's what you could call his actions.
He watched her sleep, fighting his vampiric desire to kill her and the human part of him that wanted to be by her side. It was a battle he was slowly losing the vampire side of him. It was like her blood was calling to him from across the fire. He closed his eyes and focused on the human side of himself, trying to fight the desire.
Suddenly, he was hit with an onslaught of memories that we're not his own. His mine couldn't process them all but there were ones that stood out in his mind.
Anna standing on a stage singing, Anna sitting in the back of a car with Adrian and her sister looking panicked, Anna's head hitting the back of the seat in front of her as their car and another car collided, flashing lights from an ambulance, Anna standing in the Headmaster's office, alone, crying.
The memories suddenly stopped leaving him confused. He had just seen Anna and her family in the accident she had told him about. The memory of the ambulance resurfaced in his mind. He watched it like it was a movie in slow motion. That was when he saw someone leaning over Adrian's still body. The image froze and so did his heart. He watched Yuuki Kuran in Anna's memory sink her fangs into Adrian.
