Secret

Chapter 8

"Ahh!" A woman screams as she runs down an empty street. Blood runs down her face and arms as she runs barefoot. She looks behind every few seconds, to see if the thing was still chasing her. A loud growling sound gets closer. As soon as she heard the sound, tears start appearing in her eyes.

"Please leave me alone!" She begs running as fast as she can through the street towards downtown. The tall buildings start coming into focus, letting her know that she is close to finding help. She picks up speed and runs faster on the cold street, ignoring the stinging pain it is leaving on the soles of her feet.

She looks back one more time and sees the thing gone. A smile appears on her face. She lost it. Turning back around, she came to a screeching halt. Right there in front of her was the monster that was chasing her. She stares at it with fear in her eyes, as it stalks closer to her, like a predator finally cornering its prey.

Tears stream down her face, hearing it give out a low growl with a deadly smile. The woman backs up slowly, deciding to try and find another way to downtown or find some help somewhere in the suburbs. She continues backing up from the growling monster, unknown a another one appearing right behind her.

A growl from behind her, stops her in her tracks. She glances behind her, slowly seeing another one of things near her. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that she was going to die.

They move closer to her, their eyes gazing her body up and down looking at their next meal. They both let out a low sound from the bottom of their throat as they pounced on her. The woman screams ring throughout the empty street, before being drowned out from the sounds of them devouring her body.

Zero turns around in the bed, groaning softly at the bright light seeping in from the hotel windows. He cracks an eye open before closing it. The light is so damn bright. He turns around towards Kaname, where the light isn't so bright, opening his eyes slowly. His vision starts focusing on a sleeping Kaname, a small smile coming to his face.

"Kana?" He murmurs, tapping his shoulder to wake him up.Zero sees him not respond and decides to shake him awake while calling his name again.

"Kaname, I have to go to the hunter association. They moved my meeting up to 12 instead of 3. Could you wake up so we can get some breakfast before we have to get on the road?" He whispers poking his cheek repeatedly.

Kaname groans from the poking, cracking one eye open. He looks at Zero raising an eyebrow. "Why? Aren't you tired from last night? That movie took a lot out of me." He mumbles falling back to sleep.

Zero sits up looking down at him. "Of course I am, but I have to get back to the city. My meeting was moved up and I want to have breakfast with you. I won't see you till Monday and I would like to end our date with us having breakfast. Either here at the hotel or on the drive home. Your choice." He spoke getting out of bed and grabbing his bag. He goes into the bathroom to get dressed, but stops to address Kaname again.

"UP KURAN!" Zero bellows grabbing one of the slippers off the floor and throwing it at Kaname snuggled figured. He shuts the bathroom door behind him and start getting ready.

A loud Ow comes from the bed. Kaname sits up, rubbing his head where the shoe had hit him. He sighs glaring at the bathroom, wishing he could burn holes in it. Why did he have to fall in love with a morning person?

He gets out of the bed, a few seconds later and stretches his sore body out. One change he has noticed from Zero, is that he has gotten a lot stronger since Wednesday. He lifts his shirt up, seeing red blush and fading marks from where Zero had marked him, thoroughly during his ride.
