Chapter 4

I could tell he was trying to come up with a quick lie, "Vampires aren't real-" "Yeah right! Stop lying to me! I'm not a naïve little girl!" I snapped at him. "…How do you know about vampires?" he turn his body towards the window and was watching my reflection from the window. "I have two besties that are vampires." He sighs at this, "You can sit in the chair while I'll send a message to the Night Dormitory." And with that he walked out of the room.

As I sat there I couldn't help but wonder what the hell is going to happen next. Cuz I know their secret… does that mean I'm dead meat now? Wow, I'm going to die at the age of 16. That's just fantastic! I think I fell asleep cuz when I woke up Kaname and Ichijou was entering the room.

"I'm in deep shit now, huh?" I smiled up at them. "How do you know about vampires?" Kaname asks, completely ignoring my question. I push up my glasses and replied, "Do you know Chaotic Heiwa?" "I thought his parents said he died," Ichijou looks at Kaname with wide eyes. "What?! He's not dead! He's my best friend. I can call him if you want?" I did my open mouth smile again and Kaname just nodded. I decided to send him an email instead and have him call me. My "This Is Halloween" ringtone went off. I love the part where it says "I am the hiding under your bed; teeth round sharp and eyes glowing red." Hehe Chaotic gave me the movie for Christmas last year.

Chaotic: what do you need, Cassie?

Me: Remember when you said to call you when my curiosity-

Chaotic: it has been 4 DAYS and you got yourself in trouble!?

Me: hey my curiosity was eating me ins-

Chaotic: I'll eat you inside and out!

Me: I don't think my insides taste that good, you moron! ANYWAY! You wanna talk to Kaname?"

Chaotic: haha sure!

I handed the phone to him and reached into my pocket for my iPod; I hop you can tell that I love that little purple thing! I held out one earphone to Ichijou, "you wanna listen to nevershoutnever with me?" He looked at me confused. "Nevershoutnever is a band, well mostly a one man band, but when Christofer Drew has a concert he has more than one member. Don't you listen to music?" "Not that much-" "Crazy!" I gasped and put the earphone in his ear, "listen now! You'll like it!"

After 45 minutes, I got Ichijou to like some of my favorite bands but the ones without the screaming . So when we were laying on the floor with our feet on the chairs, Kaname and Chairman dude both had their eyebrows raised. "What's up my home skillets?" I reached for my phone and giggled. "Home skillets?" Kaname asks, handing back my phone. "No funny? Aww. Well at least you don't know my friend Heather, she tends to over do it!" I laughed while I jumped up and gave a hand to Ichijou. Did you know his name is so fun to say? Kinda sounds like G.I. Joe hahaha I'm such a dork. I looked over to the Chairman dude and he was smiling creepily at us. My eye twitched, "what's wrong with him?" I pointed at him. "My dream is coming true! It is possible that humans and vampires can be at peace with each other!" he had stars in his eyes by now. "Um ok. But I always treat people equal, unless they're mean. For me, doesn't matter if you're human, vampire, or… a dinosaur! I'll still treat ya like a friend. Like let's not look at the powers that some vampires have and look at the bloodlust and the fangs. Vampire bats, the ones I saw on Animal Planet, had a bloodlust and have fangs; well they are more like incisors. Anyways-" "You're comparing us to vampire bats?" Kaname looked amused at this. "You make it sound like a bad thing! And the vampire bats are adorable! Have you seen the way they walked to the heels of the farm animals? They walked like a penguin! Have you ever done the penguin on crack dance? I invented, you're soo jealous! …I'm going to shut up now" I hid my face in my hands and was having a silent laugh attack. You know the ones where you can't breathe and tears come to your eyes? Yeah that.

"Ok here's what's going to happen after you're done laughing," I suddenly stopped and looked up at the Chairman dude, "Chaotic and October-san is going to attend Cross Academy and become part of the Night Class." He went over to his desk and pulled out one Night Class uniform with one of those arm bands that Yuuki and Zero has but it was black with red printing instead of white and red printing. "And also you'll be switching over to the Night Class as a Perfect. You're excuse can be for educational purposes-" "haha educational purposes…" I chuckled to myself. "What's so funny?" "Educational purposes won't cut it dude. I mean for some it would but the smart ones won't think so. Hehehe I bet you guys a dollar that when I tell Oliver, he's going to burst out laughing. Oh! I'm going to do it at lunch, when he's drinking milk! So then he'll choke! It's a brilliant plan! Muhahahaha!" my accent changed and I did my evil high pitch laugh that sounds like the stereotype sound for witches. "So does that mean I get to sleep in the mornin'?" they nodded. "Yay I miss my sleepness! That's why I'm so hyper at the moment! I'm tried as shit!" "That doesn't make any sense." "I know, that's why I said at the moment!" I giggled and slid off my skirt. "Never liked solid color skirts" I mumbled and put that evil cloth on the chair next to me. Next I started to unbutton my jacket when the Chairman dude freaked out, "You don't have to take it off here!" "Since I woke up late, I didn't have time to change. So that's why I have my pj shirt on, see?" I pointed at it, "I love Escape the Fate!" And then he fainted; which caused me to poke him with my shoe, "what the hell?" "He thought you were taking off your clothes," said Kaname. "Hell no! Plus this is what I always wear, a band/graphic tee and skinnies" I shrugged my shoulders, "is he dead?" "No. Ichijou, walk with Cassie to pick up her stuff," Kaname said as the Chairman was coming to.

As we were walking towards the Moon Dormitory, Ichijou was silent as a mouse. "Is something wrong?" I asked worried, I hope I didn't freak him out with my weird behavior… I lost a good friend because of that once. "Is this all the stuff you have?" he points to my bags, thank god. "Well my paycheck could only go so far! And besides, most of my clothes are packed down tight here," I point to the luggage that he was pulling, "and this one just has some random fun crap." I gave a belly laugh. "Where did you work?" "At an animal shelter, but I had to quit when I was force to come here. What is a 16 year old supposed to do when they are left at home alone? Especially when my mind wonders on the day when Aiden-" I shook my head. "Who's Aiden?" "Which one? My bestie or my ex-bestie who has the same eye color as yours. I really don't want to talk about this." I sighed as we came up to the guy who keeps track of the people that passes by.

When I finally got a good view of the dormitory I was shocked, "Damn, this place looks like a fancy 5 star hotel… that I could never afford." He laughs and holds open the door for me. "Yep it's fancy alright." I mumbled. "You like?" "Eh, I don't really care dude. As you can see, I'm not a fancy person. But since this is a boarding school, I shouldn't have expected any less… why the hell do I have a British accent!?" I threw my arms up in the air, "hehe sorry I'm weird. "Hahah its ok! Come on, I'll show you your room." We went up the stairs until we got to the 3rd level. On the far end there was two empty rooms, I got the one that had the door facing me and Chaotic and October are going to get the one on left. On the right was Ichijou's and his friend Shiki's room; the one I saw with Luna…

My room was cozy and I had no roommate… YES! As soon as Ichijou goes to sleep I'm decorating my room. "Hey aren't you supposed to be sleeping, since everybody else is?" "Yeah but its ok, I just wanted to make sure you're settled in." That made me smile, and I knew I could trust him. "Awwie thank you!" I spoke in my childish voice, "hey around and hour or so I'm going to lunch with the Day Class okay?" "May I come with you?" "Umm… wouldn't that cause uproar? And plus do you think you can handle lunch time?" "What do you mean?" clearly showing that he's confused. "Well there might me milk shooting out of mouth, mini food fight, and yelling. Are you up for the challenge?" I giggled as his face expression changed, "Don't worry I'll protect you!"

After putting up posters in my room, Ichijou and I put up two ropes across my ceiling, (A/N: it looks like an X and I like to hang up stuff from it. It's not touching the ceiling and it's not low enough for others to run into it). And then it was around noon so we started heading over towards the school.

When we got to the cafeteria area, the fan girls were glaring at me and whispering hysterically. "Uproar." I mumbled to myself. Then we got to Oliver's table, "what's up my bitches?!"
I giggled at them. "Oh my god, there's a Night Class student behind you!" one of Oliver's friends shouts at me. "Ya know he has a name! It's a real beautiful name," I spoke in my weird advertising voice, "of course it's the latest edition, its top notch! And you can be expecting to pay about 14 hundred-" "Baby legs?" "No dollars…" "Oh 'cause I have like this tray of food and uhh… Oliver." "…SOLD!" I threw my arms in the air. "You watch DesandNate?" he questions. "Of course! Who doesn't?" "Idiots," he mumbled. "That's mean!" I gasp and flicked his forehead as we sat down.

"So what happen to you after the book incident? You never came back to class, so you have a shit load of homework." Oliver stated, clearly showing that he cared…aw that's nice. "Nothing much," I watch him nod and took a drink from his milk (perfect timing). "And I'm switching to the Night Class, for educational purposes." He started choking on his milk and it went up his nose. "That was so much better than the reaction I was hoping for!" I laughed as one of his buddies patted his back. "Why y-you going there?!" he coughed out, "if it's because of the fan girls, I can get them to stop! Just don't go…" he whispered the last part. I was surprised I didn't know how to react to this side of him; so I decided to pull a joke. "Relax; I'm going to become a Perfect, so I'll still get to see you! Plus, I'll be here for lunch time!" I slowly reached for his cookie, which he slapped. "Don't touch that!" and his friend's drink knocked over. "Nice going Oliver!" I yelled so everybody here can hear us. "Can you believe him?" I looked over at Ichijou and he was laughing a little. "Cassie, if I had done it, it would have been like this," he grabbed some orange juice and dumped it all over my lap. My eye twitches as I slowly rose up and he took off running before I could ring his neck. "Seriously! That wasn't even cool! Well at least he left his cookie!" I started munching on it as Zero was heading towards us.

"No Night Class students are supposed to be out! So get back to your dorm!" he gave Ichijou a death glare. "Chairman dude said we could, baka." I blocked his glare from Ichijou. "Why would he?" he glare darkens once again. "Because it's simply none of your business, so fuck off." I snapped with my temper rising. "Well he needs to leave anyway!" That was the last straw. "And why is that?! I don't see any-" "Cassie, its ok. I'll go," he gave me a smile but it was strained. "I'll come with you" I got up with him, "if I don't, there might be a fight." "You can't go with him!" Zero said chasing up to us. I spun on my heel to confront him, "did you not just say Night Class students are not allowed out during this time?" I spoke in my deadly tone with my bangs covering my whole face. "Yes but-" "then here's the newsflash, Zero-kun, I'm part of the Night Class now. Have a nice day." And we walked away without looking back.

"Dude, that was so intense back there!" I looked at Ichijou through the mirror who was sitting on my bed. "…Do you hate Zero?" "No, I just really hate the way he was glarin' at ya" "he hates vampires." "I noticed." "Do you want to know why?" he questions me in a sad tone. "Sure." He pats the bed next to him and I sit down confused. "The Kiryuu family was killed by a pureblood, the pureblood was after revenge. His parents and brother died, but he survived the attack." "Why would the pureblood go after them in revenge?" "The Kiryuu family was vampire hunters," he whispered. "Oh so he just really hates vampires in general?" "Mostly purebloods." "So he hates Kaname? Will he hate Chaotic too?" I asked with wide eyes and he nods. "But he doesn't even know him! Chaotic doesn't cause trouble! He cracks jokes! He's like a class clown/prankster! If he messes with my besties, he's going to be in a lot of pain," I replied in a sing song voice as I spun around in circles. "You're protective of your friends, huh?" he laughed a bit, but I don't find it funny. "Yes. If someone is going to mess with them, they have to get by me first. And I refuse to go down without a fight." I looked out the window and whispered out, "when you only live for friends, it seems like the only lifeline…" I glanced down so that my hair covers my hair; few tears slipped out of my eyes and on to the floor. I saw that he looked at me, the floor, and back again, so I blinked the tears away and gave a fake smile to him. "Shouldn't you be sleeping?" I poked his cheek. "I suppose," he walked over to the door and glanced back, "I'll come and get you for class okay?" "Okay" and I fell back on the bed to take a nap.
