Bloody Rose ~Aidou Love Story~

Lullaby

The crowd of screaming girls was loud to say the least. If I was able to, I would gladly shut them up, but Kaname's all about not hurting the humans no matter how annoying they get. It doesn't help the fact that I'm thirsty. I could solve both my problems if I could just drink them. Another problem was that if I bit them they would turn into vampires and soon fall to a level E, just as Zero will eventually. Sometimes I feel sorry for Zero since he was attack and didn't have a choice in the matter, but that feeling is soon pushed aside. ]

Speaking of Zero, in the distance I can see Zero and Yuuki holding back the day class students. I want to go up to Yuuki screaming sister and hug her like I used to, but I can't do that either. Kaname is seriously giving me little to do with all these rules. It's no far. All of a sudden Yuuki falls over. The day class students pushing her down. That's not helping the fact that I already want to kill them for being annoying. The next thing I saw was Yuuki falling on the ground, being trampled by the day class students. If we didn't have rules, they would be dead.

Kaname went up to Yuuki, helping her off the ground. I could tell that he was telling her to be more careful and maybe have Zero help her. Zero would be pretty helpful since with one look, he can scare them all off with his face. Zero came up to Kaname while he was about to pat Yuuki's shoulder. I was walking towards them as well, but when Zero grabbed ahold of Kaname I wanted to run up to them and rip Zero's arm out his socket. I came up to them and grabbed Zero wrist, holding on as tight as I could which made him flinch. "Let go of Kaname." I glared at Zero still with a smile on my face.

"It's okay, Kasumi. He's doing no harm." I let go of Zero at the same time that he let go of Kaname. It's a good thing that Zero doesn't know I'm a pure blood or he would have pointed his bloody rose at me. That gun is going to be the death of me. "Let's go Kasumi." I guess I zoned out a bit because Kaname and the rest walked closer to the school while I was in the same place. I walked over to him, and we all walked to the school for another boring day.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Class had to be the most boring thing in the world. I had started to hum the lullaby that my mother used to sing to me at bedtime, I could still remember it even after ten years. It was the only thing that I had to hold on to my parents deaths since their murders. My head was resting on the desk with my arms crossed under me. Aidou was right next to me, listening to my humming. I guess he thought class was boring too. Even though my head was facing the window, I could still tell he was watching me.

My eyes wandered around the grounds, looking over everything. It made me miss my parents gazing at the moon, so I always kept my eyes low when looking around. I spotted Zero walking around the school building. Does he really think that any one of us is going to go walking around with the teacher talking so much. I stopped humming and looked back at the teacher only to see that he was leaving. It's about time. "Kasumi, do you want to walk around with me and Kain?" I turned my head to the person who asked me that, Aidou.

"I think I'll stay here today." I turned my head back towards the window, listening as Aidou and Kain got out of their seats and walked off. I really wasn't in the mood today. I have been thinking about my parents all day. It was getting annoying at first so I thought about killing the day class students but now, it's making me depressed almost. Another person came and sat in the seat that Aidou used to be sitting in. I could tell it was Kaname by his footsteps and the way he sat down. I always had a knack for that sort of stuff.

"Why didn't you go with Aidou? You two are always together along with Kain." I looked at him and immediately he could tell what I was thinking about. He always knew. "You should stop thinking about them. That was in the past, we need to look towards the future." I nodded slightly, looking back out the window. A hand came and rested on my back. Kaname probably did it since he hasn't left his seat yet. "I hope I didn't upset you any further."

"You didn't. I know where you are coming from." This is usually the point when he thanks me for understanding and gets up and leaves. He had started to clench and I was about to ask him what was wrong but once I picked up my head, I could smell it. Blood lingered in the air. It was Yuuki's blood at that.

He got up almost too fast and started walking away, but before he took more than two steps he turned around to face me. "Stay here." I nodded, leaning my head down on the desk again. I really wanted to know why Yuuki was bleeding, but Kaname would probably tell me later. I hope.

~~~~~~~~~

Class had ended a while ago and I still haven't found out why Yuuki was bleeding yet. I'm kinda worried that Aidou had something to do with it since him and Aidou came back in the class with a really pissed off Kaname following suit. Aidou told me that if Kaname didn't tell me, he would tell me personally. That's really nice of him. I stepped out of the shower, wrapping a towel tightly around both my body and hair. Ruka and Rima were waiting outside for me, fixing their hair for bed.

"Kasumi, can I ask you a question?" I nodded my head and started to put clothes on, attempting to keep the towel on my head, to stay on my head. "Why do you always hum that song during class?" I stopped what I was doing and continued to look down. I had completely forgotten about that subject like Kaname asked me too but know, it back in my head again. I might have a nightmare tonight because of it.

"It was a lullaby that my mother used to sing to me to get me to fall asleep. I hum it when I'm thinking about my parents so that maybe I won't think about their deaths." I then continued to get dressed with a guilty looking Ruka behind me. I took out my hair from the towel, to let it dry naturally. My hair went down to my waist so it takes longer to dry, but I'm too lazy to blow dry it. "I'm going to go to bed now, if you two don't mind." They both nodded and so I went into my room and laid down on the bed. I didn't have a roommate, so I really could do whatever I wanted without anyone knowing.

I curled up under the blankets thinking about the way that my parents were murdered. I was forced to watch the whole thing from a crack in the door. My parent hid me in there so that maybe he wouldn't find me. He didn't. Once my parents were dead, Kaname found me in the closet crying in the corner. Yuuki had lost her memory and was passed out in Kaname's arms. He gave me one of those looks that told you to come, so I did. We left our house only looking back once. A single tear slid down my cheek before I soon found myself lost in the dream world, where all the nightmare are kept.

Mom. Dad. I miss you.
