Chapter 5
I woke up to someone smacking me with a pillow, "ow you motherf-" I look up to see that Aidou dude with the pillow. "When I asked you to wake her up, I didn't mean that way," Ichijou sighed from the door way, "You could've knocked-" "I did but she didn't hear, so I did it the fun way~," Aidou smirked, and turn around to leave. That is; until I grabbed his arm, "Hey I'm sorry about yesterday," he turn around and stared at me as I continued, "I know you were trying to be helpful but I don't like people grabbing me from behind. My first reaction is to get as far away from the person and in order to do that I use a violent way. I didn't mean to hurt you." I could tell he was surprise but then he got cocky, "you didn't hurt me-" "yeah that's why you doubled over in pain, hah don't worry I won't tell anybody. Oh wait everybody already saw… whoops my bad!" I was laughing so hard that I didn't notice the ice forming under my feet. "OoOoh ice!" I grin as I ran over to my closet and then back again only to almost slid into the wall, "so much fun! So you can make ice, eh?" I poked his arm, only to notice that I was starting to get hyper. "Why aren't you scared?" he asks in an annoyed voice clearly showing that he's pissed. "Ice is fun to play on! And your eyes are really pretty," I stated hoping his mood would change… which it did. "You think my eyes are pretty?" he questions and took a step closer to me. "That doesn't mean I'm a fan girl! I just compliment your eyes, big deal. Besides, Ichijou's eyes are much prettier than yours!" I sang and skipped to my bathroom to change.
"Damn I look different in all white," and yes that means I have my white skinnies on. What you really think I would wear a skirt alone? Plus I have a reason to wear pants; I use to cut so there are scars on my legs. I could wear knee high socks but it's too risky. Anyway, I did my eye make up again but this time with purple eye shadow, (its mah favorite color) and then I put in my eye contacts. I grabbed my iPod and phone, started down the stairs slowly. When I reached the last staircase, I peeked down to see what they were doing. "So Chaotic-sama is coming here with his wife?" a tanish brown haired girl said, and she was standing very close to Kaname I might add! I started down the stairs and open my big mouth (I swear I'm going to get killed one of these days because of it! Like that one time when Tori beat the crap outta me at lunch time), "Chaotic doesn't really like being called with the suffix -sama," I smiled because no one noticed me coming up behind them, well except Kaname. "Where the hell did you come from?" Aidou shouted at me. "Unfortunately, from my mother" a giggle slipped out as I was taking a seat on the steps with my head down. "smartass-" "is better than being a dumbass!" I interrupted him with another giggle. "Do you have an answer for everythi-" "yeah, pretty much!" I burst out laughing and finally looked up. Everybody was staring. What's up with everybody staring at me?! "Great a loud mouth human," the tanish brown haired girl mumbled to herself. "I'm not loud, I'm just simply misunderstood" I purred out, while trying to hold in giggles at the same time.
"This is Cassie Leach, she's a friend of Chaotic's and she's going to become the Night Class's Perfect." Kaname introduce me to everyone and I gave a small wave. "Yay, you can protect me from Kiryuu-san," a dark haired guy whined and came up to me. (A/N: he's seen in chapter 7, he's the one with the 3 little knives.) "Hey leave Zero out of this," I replied in the same tone. "But he's mean," he whined again. "No really? I thought he was a pocket full of sunshine!" I rolled my eyes with sarcasm dripping off my tongue. "You shouldn't mess with me," he said in a dark voice. "But yet I already am," I smirked and he did the same. "Ha you're a sassy girl, I like that," he said but was getting to close for comfort, "but yet you should be scared of me," he then bared his fangs at me, with his eyes glowing red. "Ew, you need a breath mint," I teased as I push his face away and skipped to the door.
"So do I need to go outside and get massacred?" I asked with a smile. "What do you mean?" Ichijou asks. "Fan girls me being here for 4 days x being in Night Class massacre! Well actually it's like a small mosh pit made of girls. But when they knock you down, they don't help you back up, so it's pathetic, really." I stuck out my tongue. "What's a mosh pit?" he asks again and my eyebrow twitches. A redish orange haired dude answers for me, "isn't it violent dancing at rock concerts?" "Hehe, yeah that's one way to put it," ^^ "So do I need to go outside or what cause it's really awkward in here," I ask while rocking back and forth on my heels. "Don't you want to know our names?" the redish orange haired dude asks again. "It would be helpful," I smiled sheepishly. "Then why didn't you just ask," Shiki stated more than asked, in a bored tone. "I didn't want to bother anybody," I said in a small voice as I looked out one of those windows. Memories came to mind, when my friends told me that I was bothering them or annoying them; maybe that's how I lost Mallory and Aiden… Then I realized that I spaced out on them, "what? I'm sorry!" I put on a fake smile and then I remembered that I forgot to take my meds, "oh shitz!" I race up the three evil staircases (I HATE STAIRS!). Ran into my door because I forgot that I locked it (it was pretty fun), then I grabbed my pills and took the fun way down the staircases! Sliding! When I jumped off and landed right in front of them, I burst out laughing, "I ran into my door, it hurt so much! Look at my knuckles," my knuckles were red and my middle one was bruising up a little. "Why did you do that?!" Aidou yells at me. "I went up to get my meds." I spoke in a serious tone. "For what?" "It's none of your business." "If you're sick, than you have to go to the imf-" "I'm not sick like that… I have Bipolar Disorder," and with that I left the building not wanting to see their faces, not wanting to hear them calling me a freak.
I open the Moon Dorm's gate door thingy and saw Yuuki, "Yuuki, what's up?" She nearly jumps out of her skin and some of her hair was sticking up, it was adorable! "I didn't mean to scare you." "It's ok! I'm going to show you how to become a Perfect/Guardian!" she cheered which caused me to giggle. "When the fan girls come out we have to-" "hey what are your feelings of me joining the Night Class? I know Zero probably hates me" I snickered. "Well are they nice to you?" "Yep, so far" "then maybe it's the next step of vampires and humans coming together!" "That's very true! Well I'm willing to take the risk! I have nothing left to lose, well except my friends… Here comes the chaos, you ready?" I pointed towards the fan girls. She nods and got on her side when Zero came out of no where and starts glaring at me. I shot a glare right back at him just for fun and went after Yuuki. That's were the whispers began.
"Hey wasn't she in the Day Class?" "Yeah, she was rooming with me!" "Why is she wearing a Night Class uniform?" this goes on until they stop suddenly and gave me a death glare. That made me smirk but then a thought hit me. I pushed Yuuki away from me and she gave me a bewildered look. "If they come after me, I don't want you getting hurt," I whispered in her ear and gave her a sad smile.
The doors open and I think my ears started ringing 'because I couldn't really hear a thing as I awaited my fate. A girl shove me back and I gave her a wicked grin, staring straight into her eyes, and slightly turning my head to the side slowly. She took a big step back and I giggled. Then Aidou just had to come up beside me and ruin my life, "I see you girls met my new best friend, Cassie-chan," he puts an arm around my shoulder as I glared at him, "Say how many rooms are you away from mine again?" "I'm going to kill you!" I snarled but it was blocked out by their screams. As Aidou walked away, a tidal wave came down upon me. I did my best not to fall, because if I did, I would have died right then and there. I shoved some back getting pissed off at the close contact. I did my best not to reach into my pocket and grab my switchblade! I deserve a cookie for that too! Someone stomped on my shoe where it has some of my best friends' names on there… I kicked her back.
The girls started to fade away and I dropped to the ground with my arms on top of my head. "That was-" "Shut up Oliver before I kick your balls!" I mumbled into the grass. "Come on Cassie, class is about to start," Ichijou's voice was getting closer. "But the grass smells good!" I whined. "You're so weird." Oliver snickered. My arm shot out like a bullet and grabs someone's ankle. I pulled them down and when I looked up, I got Zero instead of Oliver. Damnit! "Gahhh I'm sorry Zero-kun! I meant to get that ass over there!" I pointed at a laughing Oliver. I yanked Zero up to his feet and ran away from the scene of the crime! With Ichijou trailing behind, of course!
Right when we sat down together, the teacher walked in. and I put my head on the desk because I was trying to stop laughing. But it didn't help when Ichijou was doing the same! You see, on the way to the class room, I made a statement on how Zero-kun sounds like leprechaun if you say it in a weird accent and the sound that Ichijou made, made me laugh weirdly. Let's just say we didn't stop laughing until we came up to the classroom's door.
"I heard we have a new student, from the Day Class, is that correct?" the teacher dude said and I looked up. "Your name is?" "Cassie Leach." Then there was silence until he barked, "are you mocking me?!" "W-what?" "Are you mocking the vampire race?!" his voice was raising and I was confused as hell. "What? No! Why would I do that?!" "You ARE mocking us!" "Dude, Leach is my last name!" I reached into my back pocket and pulled out my wallet, "see here's my driver's license! If you don't believe me, believe this little plastic thingy!" I talked in my weird voice as all the students were staring at my hand. "Haven't y'all seen a driver's license before?" "Office now!" he snapped turning back to the board. "It's always the male math teachers," I mumbled under my breath as I skipped/hopped down and out the door.
Outside, the breeze was soothing, it whipped my hair around my shoulders and face; it felt like it was raining even though it's clear tonight. I raised my head up and breathe in the air, taking in the scent of the trees and grass. At one moment, I thought I was back in Nebraska, hanging out at my old grade school's playground with Tyler, Cookie, and Alex. Before they went traveling around the states, before they graduated, before they left me…
We used to hang out, but you can't do that over the phone/computer, especially when Alex's boyfriend is a douche bag. You see, the reason why they're traveling is because they have a band it's called "The Bloody Black Roses" (A/N: the band name is randomly made up! If there is a band called that, then I'm sorry). And they're trying to get signed, the other band members is Sam and Skylar. Skylar was teaching me how to play the drums, but only when they aren't traveling. Oh well, I'll see them at Thanksgiving.
I stepped up to the private head courters that the Chairman has and knocked; Yuuki opened the door. "Hey I need to see the Chairman dude," I smiled down at her. "Follow me!" We went to the kitchen area and Zero was at the table doing nothing, so we joined him. I started snickering remembering the leprechaun comment. "What are you laughing at?" Zero asks annoyed. "You!" I squeaked out and burst out laughing cause in my head I pictured Zero wearing a skirt. I quickly grabbed a napkin and started drawing the image. Then the Chairman dude came in rubbing his temples, "what did you do now?" "I didn't do anything," I said as I kept on drawing, "the teacher thinks I'm mocking him." "What was that?" I raised my head and repeated, "The. Teacher. Thinks. I'm. Mocking. Him." Zero smirked at this, "and why is that?" "Because of my last name, you dipshit," I sneered but then laughed at his face reaction, "he thinks I'm mocking vampires but I'm not! Well I have mocked Chaotic once, but that was with a sock puppet. So can you write a note, then I'll be outta ya hair." I went back to drawing as my tummy rumbled. The Chairman dude handed me the note and asked if I was hungry. "Well I didn't really get a chance to eat, since Zero yelled at us," I return the smirk back to Zero. "He shouldn't have been out in the first place!" "It was just lunch time! It wasn't like he wasn't going to attack anybody, you jackass!" "I can't believe you're standing up for him!" he gets up from his chair as do I. "well he's much nicer than you are!" He ignores that comment and glares at the Chairman dude, "I can't believe you're letting in another pureblood!" I feel bad for Yuuki to see this but I can't really control myself when I get pissed. I grabbed a hold of his collar and shoved him into the wall, letting out all my anger that I have been holding in all week. "You haven't even met him, but yet you judge him! If you got to know him, you wouldn't even know that he's a vampire!" I release him and walked over to the door and back again, trying to calm myself. When I was calm, I walked up to Zero with a sad smile, "I didn't mean to smash you into the wall. My temper just gets outta hand a lot. So here," I grabbed the napkin, "there's a butterfly with black and purple (the same shade of your eyes) on the back and a funny picture on the front." And with that I slipped out the door.
After all the classes were over, we had some study time well more like nap time! I dropped my head on the table and it hurt! "Owwie, why did I do that?" I whimpered and heard Ichijou let out a giggle. "Sure, laugh at me! I see how ya are!" I grinned up at him and saw a book in his hand, "whatcha readin'?" "A manga." "Coolio," I dropped my head again but more softly this time! I reached in my pocket for my iPod but somebody beat me to it. "Hey give it back!" I snapped at Aidou. "I just want to see what you listen to!" he turns, with his back facing me. I stood up and tried to get it back but he held it up in the air. "Bastard" I snarled as I stood on my tip toes. "Someone has a temper. I could easily break this in half," he smirked at me. So I decided this is the time to use my acting skills, "Come on dude, this is the only thing that keeps what's left of my sanity," now here comes the sob story, "all my friends are in the U.S. the least you can do is give one of them back…" I had fake tears forming in my eyes and I fell to my knees. "Don't cry! Here you can have it back, see?" he held Nanoie out in front of me and I grabbed it quickly. A smirk was on my face when I stood back up, "wow Drama Club really paid off." He was in shock, "you were faking?!" "Faking is such a negative word; let's use acting instead, eh?" I giggled evilly at him, "You think I would really cry? I would have punched your gut, but there are too many people around, teehee. My new hobby is bothering you; you should feel special!" I spoke in my childish voice.
"Well than I'm sitting on your desk!" he sat right in front of me. What is he trying to prove with that? "You better move your ass." "No!" he stuck his nose up in the air, like he owns the place. "Well it looks like there's a full moon out tonight," I stated hoping someone would catch on to the joke. "The moon isn't full," I think I heard Shiki's voice. "That's not what I meant." Aidou jumped off the desk with a smirk upon his face, "you like what you see?" "There's not much to see. Anyways, I prefer dudes in tight pants," I purred at him as he pouted. "Oh I'm sorry, did I hurt your ego? I don't go for guys or girls that have blonde hair." Suddenly all eyes were on me and the tanish brown haired girl came into view. "What are you bisexual?" "Why do you care?" the room was dead silent, until the girl, who's sitting next to Shiki spoke up, "Ruka, leave her alone." This Ruka girl was getting pissed, "but it's revolting!" "Why do you hate me?! I haven't done anything to you! Hell I didn't even know your name until a minute ago. I thank you for saying her name" I look towards the girl and she nods. "You're a human girl, who doesn't know her place," Ruka hisses at me, I think she's PMSing. "You're wrong, I'm a 16 year old girl who doesn't take shit from people," I smiled with anger refilling itself inside of me. I quickly slam my head on the table again because I don't wanna get in a fight at the moment; especially when I don't know what she could do to me. The safest way out of this is to pretend I was sleeping.
"Did she just fall asleep?!" Ruka starts to growl as Aidou was snickering at this new piece of information. "Even she thinks you're boring!" I heard something crashing into Aidou and landing next to my hand, "Ruka, I'll kill you!" By this time my body was trembling, I wanted to laugh so hard. "Aww you're not sleeping" he whines and rests his chin on my table so we were at eye level. "Your eyes remind me of Aiden's iPod," I randomly say and start drawing on a piece of paper. "What are you drawi-" "Don't move, you moron," I snapped and drew faster. I stopped unexpectedly and quickly folded it to a paper hat. "I drew you! Here you go!" He opens it and Ruka burst out laughing. It was a picture of a donkey… that has aqua blue eyes. I jumped from my seat and ran over to that dark haired dude, which was far away. "What did you draw?" he whispers in my ear. "A donkey," I let out a squeak/giggle. "This looks exactly like you!" Ruka holds the paper up to get a better look. As they were arguing, Kaname just kept reading his book. So I decided to draw a puppy for Aidou, as an apology. "You cause so much trouble in one night," the dark haired dude chuckles. "Life is no fun, without a little chaos, eh? … oh my god, I've been hanging out with Chaotic too much," I mumbled and got up to leave, but he yanked me back down. "Just a little taste," he whispers, his breath tickling my neck. I whipped out my switchblade and held it to his neck, "Let. Go. Of. Me." "that knife won't kill me-" "yeah, but it'll do some damage," I ripped my arm out of his grasp and calmly headed back over to Ichijou, pretending as if nothing happened.
"So who is everybody?" I asked, chucking the picture at Aidou. "Well you already know Souen Ruka and Aidou Hanabusa, over there with the redish orange hair is Kain Akatsuki. These two up here is Touya Rima and Shiki Senri." Ichijou gave one of those smiles that lighten the whole room. I leaned forward and ask, "Hey are you two models?" I already knew the answer but I wanted to make sure before I tell Luna. "Yeah, why was the Day class talking about us?" "No, my bestie, Luna and I were at the bookstore in Seattle, and she spotted ya guys." "Then why ask?" Shiki replied. "Wanted to make sure," I said in a small voice. Does he hate me? I never had seen a person so emotionless, at least Rima shows a little more than him. I looked back down at my notebook and started writing lyrics, when I turn my iPod to "Savior" by Rise Against. I didn't even notice it was time to leave until Ichijou tapped my shoulder and pointed at the door. I slowly got up for my energy was running very low… I need sugar!
