Going Away

I was surprised when we began boarding a private jet at around five in the evening. I had never seen myself getting on anything private to run away from a bunch of vampires. Nobody questioned us, and we were both thankful for that. I didn't hear where we were going but I couldn't bring myself to care. As soon as I had sat down and got comfortable, I was out like a light. I didn't wake up until Kaname shook me awake. When I looked out of the window I noticed that we were back in my old city, the city that I worked for him, and the city where I hunted vampires during the night because I hated the blasted things.

"I know this isn't the best place to go, but I haven't seen work in ages. I need to check up on my girls and make sure they haven't made me go bankrupt by now." He joked and I shook my head with a smirk. "Honestly, you were slow as hell but you were my best worker." He admitted and I winked at  him before going to the door. "I'm glad you're in a better mood. I didn't know how much longer of the attitude that I could take." He mentioned and I just rolled my eyes once more. I was so glad to smell the polluted air of the Big Apple again, and see everyone rushing to get to work since it was only seven in the morning here. 

I didn't even wait for him as I started walking down the strip and hopping the fence. I didn't have a destination, and Kaname knew that. He seemed like he was fine with it. We passed by my old job, and his thriving business. I didn't ask if he wanted to go in, because I had already went inside. I heard him chuckle behind me as I wandered in like a child seeing something for the first time. As if on impulse, I went to the elevator and hit the top floor like I had done so many times before now. It was like it was a routine for me every time I came into this building that I made decent money to live off of in. When the elevator was rising up, I looked over at Kaname who was leaned against the wall with his eyes closed. I could see why so many girls swooned over him. He was basically a god. 

I mean, I hated the guy with a burning passion, but something was off when I wanted to really hate him. It was like, I hated him but I enjoyed hating him? That's kind of sadistic in a way, really. He was the only one that could calm me down, even though he pissed me off a million times a day even when he wasn't around. I could just look at him and get pissed off, but it wasn't a kind of pissed off that just put me in an awful mood all day. It was a kind of pissed off that I could joke about and not think anything of it. 

"Could you please stop staring at me? I know I'm hot and all, but I would like for you to stop. It's weird." He said with his eyes closed, and I knew he was just kidding by the smirk on his face when he said it. The elevator reached the top and I walked out, immediately being swarmed by all of my ex co-workers. They kept hugging me and taking pictures with me like I was some kind of celebrity. When they all died down and went back to work, or went back to gossiping, I turned to Kaname. He seemed a bit confused. "I'm not used to other people being swarmed when I walk into the room. They didn't even notice me with you here. Strange." He said before walking to his office. 

"Something tells me that you aren't entirely upset about that part." I teased when I walked into his office behind him. He glanced back at me with a smirk and shook his head before grabbing some papers and looking at them. "Awe, are you jelly because all the girls like me over you?" I cooed with a smile. I had honestly forgotten that vampires had super speed until I found myself shoved against a bookcase and Kaname just inches away from my face. 

"I'm not jealous that they like you over me, I'm jealous that they like you and get to touch you. I don't like that, and it bothers me that I care." He said deeply and quietly. If I hadn't been as close as I was, I probably wouldn't have heard him. He was so close that I could feel his breath, and his body was lightly pressed against mine, begging us to move just a little bit closer. I would have given anything to get just a little bit closer to him and feel what it felt like to be against him. "I don't like you, but for some reason, I don't hate you. So now I don't know what to do." He said before pushing away from me, leaving me alone and cold. I knew how he felt, because I didn't like him but I didn't hate him either. I used to straight up hate his guts, and now I couldn't say that and mean it. 

"Maybe you like me a little bit." I teased and he raised an eyebrow. "Not a lot, just a little bit."

"I know for a fact that neither one of us would willingly like one another just because we wanted to." He said quietly, almost as if he didn't really want to say it with the fear of it being true. Of course, I didn't want to like him, so he's not entirely wrong on that part. What I couldn't seem to fathom is, why the hell were we worrying about whether or not we liked one another? It's not like it particularly mattered in the end, since we were to be married in a couple of weeks. I was thankful that they decided to have a small wedding with only the most important people and family members. Man, if only I could describe how much sarcasm was dripping from that sentence. 

"Honestly, I don't know why it matters. We're getting married anyway so liking each other will have to come eventually-"

"No, it doesn't. I've already told you that it doesn't matter in the end. The only time we have to kiss is at the wedding, after that it's done. We can adopt a child from a distant cousin or something. We don't even have to tolerate each other as far as I'm concerned." He said with a wave of a hand, indicating that he was irritated.

"If you think for one second that I am going to allow a child to come into this so called family without us having some kind of positive relationship, then you're absolutely insane. There will not be any kind of family unless you get over your damn self and swallow your pride. You don't have to pretend anything. Either you like me, or you don't. It's literally that simple. There isn't a way to sugar coat it either and I won't, because I'm not Willy Wonka and this isn't the Chocalate Factory, princess." 

"Why is it that every time you and I talk, we fight?" He asked and I shrugged before picking up a book from his shelf. 

"Yuki thinks it's because of how alike we are to one another. She says that we clash too much and it makes it hard for us to get along due to it. I don't know how she thinks we're alike, but she's crazy anyway." I said while opening the book up to a random page and glancing over the words. "I don't know, but I enjoy fighting with you. It doesn't put me in a bad mood for the rest of the day like fighting with other people normally does. I don't understand it really." I said simply, and I looked up at Kaname when I finished reading a section of the book. I set the book down on his desk, open on the section that I had read and it got his attention before I walked out. The one thing that I had read that kept replaying in my head was strange.

"The two vampires, whether it be a pureblood or aristrocrat or a mixture, whom are mates in the world most commonly start off as enemies of a sort. Whether it be that they fought on opposite sides of a war, or they just simply do not get along. However, the longer the two are together, even with the fighting and bickering and disagreeing, they soon become comfortable with one another. They soon start to find themselves liking the other, or at least tolerating the other. In the end, they will come to enjoy one another because even though they started out basically hating one another, they are mates and mates ultimately have a bond that not even the strongest hatred could keep them from one another." 

And the one part that got me the most, was the last sentence. "Not even the strongest hatred could keep the two from falling in love with the other."
