Kaname made his way to the Chairman's office to help with the Secret Santa project of his. The only reason why Zero wasn't with him was because the teen had told him he needed to take care of something and insisted Kaname meet him there. Kaname was unsettled about how Zero was acting lately tho because for one thing he had eaten more than usual that morning and he had mentioned not feeling well for a little while afterwards. He tried to let it go as he entered the Chairman's office and started discussing what they would be able to work out.
Zero however was having a little trouble with his stomach, he had thrown up once after Kaname had left and now he was feeling horrible cramps in his midsection. He forced himself to get up off the couch and search online for what was happening, he typed in the keywords of what he was feeling. The results that came up shocked him and made him feel slightly more anxious, he didn't even know that this could even happen to him. After what seemed like forever he reasoned with himself to go after Kaname and help with the project the headmaster had for them.
Kaname looked at Zero as he walked into the room with a smiled, tho his cheerful attitude faded when he saw how anxious the boy looked at the moment. "You alright Zero?" he asked softly.
Zero looked up at Kaname and nodded.
Kaname cast a soncerned look at his lover before turning half his attention back to the headmaster.
Hours afterwards Chairman Cross had told them that they could go buy a present to add the Secret Santa they would hold for the Day and Night class.
Kaname hoped he would be able to save his present for Zero but wasn't quite sure if that would work out or not.
Zero looked at the windows of shops absently as he thought of what he had found on the internet earlier. How was he going to tell Kaname? Would Kaname listen? Should he even tell Kaname? How could he not let Kaname know? Would Kaname still be with him? How would he himself cope with it? Zero shook his head trying to clear it of all those insecure thoughts and questions as he searched for a suitable present to contribute.
Kaname went into a shop that looked like it would hold something suitable for what he was looking for for Zero to receive.
Zero snapped out of one of his latest questionable thoughts as he saw something that looked as tho it would suit Kaname well enough.
Once their presents were picked out they both went to a hot cocoa shop to get something warm to drink.
Kaname walked over to their table with two steaming cups of cocoa to drink for them both.
Zero barely even noticed Kaname as he placed the mug infront of his eyes.
Kaname looked at Zero with more concern than before, "Zero, I know there's something wrong please tell me." He gently placed a hand on his shoulder in a soothing way.
Zero blinked abit looking up into the warm brown eyes he had come to love, "Huh?"
Kaname frowned slightly, "I know there's something troubling you just please tell me so I can help."
Zero hesitated and shifted slightly in his wooden seat, "I...I don't..want you to worry or anything."
"I'm worrying now Zero." Kaname said softly.
Zero licked his lips anxiously as he looked down at his hot cocoa before him, he slowly looked back up into Kaname's concerned eyes as he slowly parted his lips to speak.
A/N: Cliff hanger! If by now you are on the edge of your seat complaining about how tense you got close to the end then I have done my job ^^ If not then I'll try harder next time I get the chance. Please review and comment.
