Life With Zero

Chapter 3

Yawning, I rolled over and sat up in bed slowly. Zero was lying beside me with his arm underneath my pillow. He looked so adorable I couldn't help but smile. I laid back down and cuddled up against him. He smelt so good. Like the oceans breeze. I felt my fangs press into my lower lip and blushed. How could I get so hungry just thinking about zero. I could feel my body getting hotter and moved away from Zero.

I don't want to drink from him every time I'm hungry but he smells so good. I sniffed the air and let my hungry take over me. Just as I was about to pounce, Zero's eyes popped open and I jumped back realizing what I was doing. I looked at him and felt disappointment in myself. Why was I letting myself fall into this hungry state?

I rushed out of the room quickly and headed to the kitchen. "Yuki! Come back in here." Zero called but I didn't listen. I opened up the fridge and grabbed a blood bag from inside. I wasn't going to let my hunger get the best of me anymore. It only took me a few seconds to drain it, but I was still hungry. I reached for another and again I was still hungry.

I started to panic as I realized that this blood wasn't quenching my thirst. That's when Zero walked into the room. I looked over at him and frowned with my fangs still out and blood dripping down my chin. "Zero...the blood bags, they aren't satisfying me at all. I don't know what to do."

I could see the veins in his neck moving slightly and moved towards him with my eyes getting redder. I want his blood. The most delicious blood I have ever tasted. I stopped and jerked back. What am I saying? I can't drink Zeros blood. I looked up at him desperate and bit into my lower lip tasting my blood.

"Yuki...it's ok." Zero tilted his head to the side for me as he moved closer. "Drink my blood. It will make you feel better." I didn't hesitate. I wrapped my arms around the back of his neck and buried my face into his neck. I inhaled deeply as I opened my mouth. What a beautiful scent he had that created me into a beast. I dug my fangs into his neck and started to drink. I could feel him pull me against him as I fed. He lifted me up slightly so I could feed easier and brought us to the living room.

My mind started to go blank as Zero's blood flooded my taste buds. He was delicious and I knew I wouldn't be able to stop. I started to feel and see Zero's memories of us as children and how he felt about everything that had happened now. I felt myself dig deeper into his thoughts as I drank more and more.

I was jerked away and out of Zero's thoughts like a bucket of ice was thrown onto me. I was shocked and looked at Zero. My instincts were to attack but I held myself back as I breathed hard. "Don't pry into my heart! There are still things I want to keep hidden from you too!"

I stared at him as I felt his blood drip off my chin and onto my dress. Zero was upset with me but I didn't care. All I wanted was his blood but his face, it looked so tortured that I couldn't bring myself to attack him for more. My instincts to attack had all but disappeared. He leaned back against the couch and held his arm across his eyes. I didn't know what to do so I hugged him.

"Zero...I'm sorry I couldn't stop myself. Please for.-" He pulled me against him and held on tightly. "It's ok Yuki....just stay like this with me for a while. Please."
