Your POV

It was the next morning and I awoke to someone knocking on the door. 

"One moment!" I said to whoever was behind the door. I threw the duvet off me and got up, after making sure I looked as presentable as I could in my pajamas, I swung open the door. In front of me stood Kaien Cross and behind him stood an annoyed Zero. He looked at me then commanded:

"Go get dressed then come to my office." Headmaster Cross seemed irritated and I thought back to yesterday. Could it have anything to do with that? Thoughts whirled around my head as I got dressed into some casual clothes as it was the weekend. I did my usual morning routine before rushing out of the door to the Headmaster's office.

I received many 'hey's and angry looks as I ran to the office. I couldn't care less who I bumped into, those stupid girls deserve more than a little shove from someone who's actually got better things to do. Within a short while I arrived at a black door, the words 'Headmaster's office' was engraved onto a gold plate which was nailed onto said door. The suspense was killing me as I stared at the door, I didn't even bother knocking before bursting into the room, still panting from the run there, and slamming the door behind me. Three pairs of eyes looked up at me from their seats to see who had interrupted them. I looked at each of them: Firstly at Kaien, then at Zero....then lastly...Kaname Kuran... My eyes widened and I slightly shook in fear. Zero got up and walked towards me and stood in front of me as if he was trying to protect me from Kaname. 

"See! As soon as (Y/N) looked at him she became frightened. Kuran is a liar! How could you believe him over both me and (Y/n)!" Zero shouted at Kaien. I peeked over Zero's arm with a confused expression on my face. What was Zero talking about? 

"W-What's going on?" I question, finally finding the courage to speak.

"Kaname visited me last night, an hour or so after the two of you left, with some news. Kaname told me that Zero had lost control last night and bitten you. He also suggested to prevent situations like this happening Zero could be moved to the night class. After I told Kaname about when you came and your accusation he told me it was false which made me call the three of you here today. Now, I want the truth." Kaien said calmly yet firmly.

"Personally I think it makes more sense that you bit (Y/N), Zero. You did all the talking yesterday and don't have as much self control as Kaname." He said. Wow, that was harsh. How could he believe that leech! 

"But you were quite angered and wanted to defend and protect (y/n)..." Kaien said, lost in thought.

I couldn't believe what was happening...My thoughts rushed around my head and I felt like I couldn't do anything at all...And I suddenly felt...dizzy...

Zero's POV!! (Surprise!!)

I quickly caught (y/n) before she could hit the ground. I grabbed her wrist with wide eyes and checked her pulse. Thank god she had only fainted. Even whilst she slept she looked absolutely beautiful. What? Heh, can't someone call their friend beautiful? The word friend stings a little as it appears in my head, but that's all she is to me, I feel something for Yuki too...I looked up from the ground to see Kuran's smug face, which turned serious when he looked at the headmaster.

"See! He's drank so much blood from her she's exhausted and weak!" Kaname argued.

"Don't you DARE blame me for this! (Y/n) is clearly exhausted from all of this stress you've brought her! If you hadn't frightened her so much and then stressed her out with this morning then (y/n) wouldn't be in this situation! She'd still feel fear but at least she wouldn't be fainting from stress and exhaustion!" I argued back. I breathed heavily and held (y/n) close to me. I felt like I needed to protect her and seeing her in my arms made me feel calmer.
