Hello, I don't really have much to say but the summary here and a few minor details about the structure of this story.
! - This is mostly the same story as the Manga/Anime except with a few details changed; of course, Kaname, Yuuki, and Zero are present but there will another added to the trip to make it into a foursome (not in... explicit ways) *the audience ratings may be changed from T to M as the story progresses. Which I will be giving a warning along the way - !
It'll be used as: You, to oppose yourself. And I, when speaking. Which also includes with: (your/name) and etc, etc.
This is also femalereader. I've tried to make it... unisex but maybe another time. (If there will be)
I'm pretty sure most people have get the whole idea of the concept. Well, I hope that's enough details for you, as a reader, to understand. Also, it may be confusion at first but I hope it pulls through.
Thank you for reading my little note^
Summary: There are a lot of hidden secrets in Cross Academy that are not dared to speak of and to keep away, to be forgotten. Until one fateful night that had been released to cause a fury. Only that it didn't disrupt the community of Cross Academy, but to those who remembered. ZeroxReader, YuukixZero, KanamexReader, YuukixReader.
I don't own Vampire Knight nor the characters.
The clock was ticking soundly in a quiet room of an office study with only a lamp desk that's barely bright. Scattered papers is sprawled all over the desk with an exhausted man that is focused on a document that's in his hand. He brought his hand over his neck, stretching the dull ache. The man sighed, placing the paper back onto his desk. This time, he really done it. He removed his glasses and rubbed his fingers carefully onto his eyelids then to the bridge of his nose. Sighing quietly as he let his head rest against his seat. He turned away from his desk and faced the wall, opening his eyes.
Headmaster Kaien Cross of Cross Academy, founder of the School's District.
As much as he loves to see that plaque on that wall, running the school can be challenging. Especially with co-existing with the vampires. A school for humans and vampires, different time schedules and separate lifestyles. There's not really much to say about the how the academy runs but to worry about students who are attending the school. A whole bunch of new students from the vampire world had suddenly high amounts of enrollment and that put a lot of work for Headmaster Cross. Its actually great that a new batch of students have taken interest but in truth, it is truly tiring. He turned back to his desk and picked up another paper, going through the description of a new student for the night class.
A knock was heard on the door. He looked up as a tall man in a white uniform had walked in, "I'm sorry, I had to deal with an issue back at the moon dorms." He spoke in a tired but soft tone. He gave the Chairman an apologetic look.
"It's no problem," Cross simply smiled, piling and sorting the papers out in front of him. "I've done quite a few already, so there's not much we can do now." He put a stack of documents into a file cover and slid it towards the other man, "You can look through these students and we can talk about it later, Kaname." He stood up and picked up the remaining papers, sliding them into his light suitcase.
Kaname only nodded, "Of course, and again, I'm sorry." Cross gave him a brief smile before walking passed him. Kaname looked at the clock that was on the wall, 6:23. He sighed quietly as he turned to the door and then back towards the window. The sun was beginning to rise, indicating it was early in the morning now.
Cross turned the key that's in the lock, opening and closing the door behind him. It has brightened more on his brisk morning walk from the school's building. He set his suitcase onto an ottoman chair and made his way to the kitchen. He turned the stove on and placed a pan on it. Pulling out a toaster and a few essentials. He went to the fridge and begun to take out the ingredients and placing them onto the counter. He took out two cups of glasses and a mug from the cupboard and then dashing to the fridge to get out a tall glass of milk and a box of orange juice. He paused by the counter and stifled a yawn; retrieving ingredients to make pancake batter. He made it within minutes and took out a pan from the bottom cabinet. Cross reached for an egg but He dropped it onto the floor when his fingers fumbled clumsily.
"You need to stop pushing yourself, Chairman..."
A low soft voice was heard behind him. Cross turned around and to see a silvered hair teen standing by the doorway. It appeared he'd been up for awhile. He frowned slightly. "Have you gotten enough rest, Zero?" He asked with a worried tone.
Zero approached the Chairman, kneeling down to pick up the cracked shells, "That doesn't matter, what you need to do is go lay down and rest," he said as he got up.
Cross stared at him for a brief moment before the silver haired teen turned and made his way to the trash can. Zero was in his loosely fitted pants with a black elbow length sleeved shirt-obviously in his comfortable clothes, "You do know you need your sleep, right?" He told the young man. He didn't get a response as he began to watch him prepare the breakfast he started. He sighed quietly, stifling in a yawn. "Alright, fine..." Cross stretched his arms, "But remember how the they like their breakfast and make sure," he trailed off, "Make sure you tell them I'll sit with them during supper." He finished off, before hesitantly walking out of the kitchen.
Zero glanced back at the exhausted-looking man. He saw a glimpse of guilt and uncertainty on the man's face. He cracked the four eggs and placed them onto the another pan on one of the burners. He began to prepare the breakfast for three individuals; including himself. There was a reason why the older man was uncertain to go ahead and rest because it's less than a week for a special day. It was the day where Kaien Cross had taken one child as his own into this house-hold. The older man celebrated every year-as if it's a birthday to celebrate but that wasn't the case. He treated every single of his three adoptive children differently with respect and care. Lately, their adoptive had been rather busy to tend to plan the little celebration. Zero remembered his a few months back when he discreetly remembered he didn't want Cross to do anything for him, but the older man insisted and threw a supper party for him. He was thankful enough that it were only the four of them present. Not including him...
Zero flipped the eggs on the pan and reached for the bowl of already prepared mix batter for pancakes as he carefully poured it into another pan. Before him was another girl, Yuuki. Cross had practically planned a party for her since it was the same day as her birthday. Almost everyone in their class had been invited including his inner circle of 'friends'; he squinted his nose at that memory. He remembered feeling so uneasy at the time, almost willing to leave the party room but both Yuuki and Cross stopped him. Luckily, the other of their house-hold member was there to keep him company while the other two were speaking with the others. This week it was her(indication you) turn; it'll be five years since Cross took her as his own and it was after Zero came into the picture. He wondered what she had planned to celebrate her day. Last year, she insisted they all take a stroll into town and then into the forest to view the 'beautiful nature' after a heavy snow fall, as he remembered. Despite him being there, it was quite peaceful, and walking back to have supper in town-even in the cold. Zero suddenly hoped she would do that again. It was still warm out and it isn't snowing yet, maybe it'll look nice out than a snowy winter land.
He took a look at the pancake batter and flipped it, along with the other pan with almost cooked eggs. He placed both utensils down and made his way to the toaster and slid in two slices of bread after plugging it in. Zero's mind began to wander when he pressed the toaster button; Maybe she would rather sit in the lounge room and casually relax with everyone in it, with tea and snacks. Although, Yuuki would rather much do something other than sitting and doing her homework since Cross would most likely push her to do it. Sometimes she would be nice to Yuuki and get Cross to let her be, having both girls to talk instead. He paused, sensing someone entering the kitchen.
"You're already up?" a tired voice piped up. Both of your attentions turned to the toaster that popped up.
Zero turned his head, "Yes, I actually just got up," he lied, going back to what he was doing; buttering the toast. He heard the chair sliding against the floor, "Has Yuuki woken up?" He asked.
You shook your head as you put your elbow on the table; resting your chin on the palm of your hand, "Yes, but I doubt she'd be coming out of bed anytime soon." You yawned quietly, covering your mouth with your other hand, "Are you sure you've just woken up?" You asked dully. You realized that it was already a quarter after 7, "There's no way you could have been this far with breakfast after hearing you leave your room a few minutes ago." Zero turned his head, giving you a look, you rolled your eyes, "Cooking is fast but what I'm also calculating is the preparations before cooking," There was a snarky tone in your voice, he turned back to the cooking.
"Why don't you just pour yourself a cup of tea and wait on your meal, (your/name)." He spoke grimly, emphasizing your name with a bitter tone.
Zero turned to see your reaction, you made a face at him as you got up to do as you were told. He smiled faintly, facing the pan again; he was amused. The relationship between himself and you is something he was fond of. There was this bound that they can throw taunts at each other, back and forth. It isn't necessarily mean but he liked that very much. Yuuki, on the other hand, she can be easily offended and would defend for herself, maybe even a punch from her. But between the two girls can really balance himself out. A hand suddenly appeared over the stove and a pot that being put on one of the burners, he looked at the silver tea pot and then towards you.
"Forgot to make the tea," You said simply, you backed up and leaned your forearms over the counter. You watched Zero cook as you waited on your warming beverage. "You have a knack for forgetting things to do for me, you know?" You shrugged your shoulder.
Zero eyed at you, "It's not like I intentionally do it on purpose," he said sarcastically, he opened the cupboards and retrieved three plates.
"Just like forgetting those notes in class I was suppose to write for you," You looked at Zero innocently; he narrowed his eyes at you.
A loud yawn was heard from the doorway, having the two turn their heads. Yuuki stretched her arms and let them slump back on either sides, "Are you two arguing again?" She said, walking to the table and sat on your chair, "because I don't have time to get in between you two right now," Yuuki smelled the delicious morning breakfast from her bedroom and actually had the urge to get up and downstairs. "Where's the Chairman, I suspected he would be the one cooking," she said as she was sort of disappointed not seeing him in there, with them.
You straightened up, leaning back against the counter; facing Yuuki, "You know how busy it has been lately. I figured he started cooking but Zero walked in and took over," You felt Zero's eyes on you, you turned to him, "What? It was obvious," you shrugged, crossing your arms and facing Yuuki again, "and besides, it's best he'd rest as much as he can before my day," You watched Yuuki's expression soften as she nodded. It had been a really busy month the Chairman recently that sleeping was not an option. The three of them pretty much knew he was sleep deprived that he had to deal with all the commotion himself... except with a little help.
About 2 weeks ago, Yuuki was worried about him that she begged you to speak to Kaname. It was during their patrols and Zero was with Yuuki for that night. She knew if he had to go see Kaname with him, he'd be in a much bad mood. So, you agreed and caught him in time before walking back to class after their 'lunch hour'.
"(your/name), is something wrong?" Kaname asked, retreating his hand back from the class's doorknob. You looked up at him, suddenly aware your in the very presence of the vampire, a pureblood vampire. You remembered that how honorable it is to even speak with one, but what was so great about that? You've known him for years when Yuuki introduced you to him. Remembering how Cross had to explain a pureblood's heritage and who-and-what he was.
You shook your head, and then nodded again, "Yes, is it alright if I can talk to you for just a moment?" Kaname nodded and gave that enchanting smile, the both of you began to walk away from the classroom. You waited for him to speak, thinking that he would rather want to be have a respectful private conversation.
Although, Kaname had a different thought, when it came to either of you girls; it was his first intention to help in any he can, "So, what is it you need?"
You stopped and faced him, explaining the details of Chairman Cross' situation of how much sleep he hasn't gotten and many times you or her have seen him still working in his office all night while out patrolling when he should be sleeping, and during the weekends when either one out of the three would have a night off asleep; waking to find out that Cross hasn't been back at the house yet. Your voice was worrisome and spoken quickly; Kaname listened attentively, wrapping each word from you with his mind, "Yuuki and I are very worried about him and I think-we think you should help him." You finished off. He stared at you for a moment, rethinking of the whole problem as he nodded.
"I will; I have known about the situation from his work but I had no intention of how it was affecting him." He spoke in a smooth voice, you nodded sadly and he continued, "Very well, I'll do as much as I can to make sure he doesn't work himself into exhaustion." You thanked him and made your back outside; to meet with Yuuki and Zero before she arrived late. Not having Zero to suspect where she had been, especially alone in a school that was currently filled with vampires.
A plate of eggs, diced of fried potatoes, and toast was placed in front of you. You immediately wondered when Zero had began to dice and fry the potatoes. Zero also placed a cup of hot tea beside it, and then placing Yuuki's pancakes with fresh blueberries in front of her. He sat down across from Yuuki as you were on either sides of them on that small table. You sighed quietly and thanked Zero. You were not easily distracted with your thoughts but you found yourself re-thinking about that night. Glancing at Yuuki, you hoped that Cross was definitely getting help with his work and hoped he had actually had enough sleep.
Today was going to be another busy day, especially with your 'celebration day' coming up. You mentally thought it will be a relaxing day for all of them during your 'day', maybe you should invite Kaname as well. To relax and not think problems with the school, prefect duties or anything... for just a good full evening. You smiled at that thought and began eating with Zero and Yuuki; today was going to be a busy day.
I didn't mean to make it this short but, it's a start! (Sorry for any spelling errors or mistakes!)
