Just an ordinary day at Cross Academy, in the Night Class after class hours. Few students are in their dorms besides the Day Class, and most are in the Moon Dorm's common room. One particular student, as usual, is in the library among the few there. She goes there to get away from it all...

Amber's aqua eyes glinted in the faint light. She loved this darkness. As she ran her finger along the spines of the books, she thought of Xavier. His image appeared in her mind, but she pushed it away. Why did she keep thinking of him? She told herself she needed time. Time to think, time to decide. She found the book she wanted; When Love and Hate Collide. As she snatched it, she found a table at the back of the library; by the windows. She looked out into the starry night, it was beautiful; and turned back to her book. She read the flyleaf, the dedication page, and passed it. Chapter One- A Feast She began reading, blocking out everything around her. This girl; Lucille, is a lot like me... confused, upset, loving and hating... her thoughts began to wonder and she stopped reading a moment. Her eyes clouded and she found herself gazing out the window, thoughts trailing.

[**Xavier**]

Today was boring. At least, in most minds of the young students at Cross Academy. No one was in their dormrooms right now, in the Moon Dormitory. Why? I'll say it again. Today was boring.

Xavier flinched as the door squeaked. He was entering the library. He smirked as he spotted her gazing out the window; her eyes thoughtful. He sighed inwardly at her lilac-gray hair. He glanced at the holster on her leg which held her pistol. He licked his fangs and strode over gracefully. He reached her unnoticed, glanced around and grabbed her around the waist as he sat beside her. "Hey Ams. What's racing in that perverted mind of yours?" he grinned, his fangs glinting. His crimson eyes flickered as he glanced at her lips. "Amber.." he muttered under his breath; unaudiable. Gunning down that romance... his thoughts blazed. You're shooting the romance we could have...

The female vampire was about to whip out BludLust, but stopped when she heard Xavier's familiar voice. She sighed and hesitated before prying his hands off her waist. She turned to him, bookmarking her spot. "My perverted mind?" she laughed. "Either way; thoughts. Decisions," her eyes became cloudy once more, but remembering the one she was deciding about was sitting there, she snapped back. She gazed at him unblinkingly, searching his emotionless eyes. She found nothing there, to her disappointment. "Xavier..." she began, tracing the pattern on the front of her book with her delicate fingers, "What.. what am I to you?" she asked softly. She glanced up at him and back down again, a light blush starting to spread on her face.

[**Xavier**]

Xavier noticed the hesitation and smirked. "Thoughts?" he echoed, his own mind buzzing. He blinked at her sudden stare, as if she were analyzing his eyes and seeing his thoughts. He then saw her unsatisfaction in her teal eyes. He frowned and silenced as she spoke his name. He glanced at her hand tracing the pattern. Blinking at her question, dumbfounded, he stared at her; eyes wide. "A-ah.." he had a quick debate within his mind. "You have to promise me..that you won't hate me..." he stared at her book. When Love and Hate Collide, eh? He flickered his gaze back to her. "Amber Hane, for years since we were kids.." he paused once more and took a breath. No girl ever made him like this, so why Amber-chan? Because you love her, you idiot! "I've always loved you..." he whispered in her ear, his breath ragged.

Amber's eyes widened. "X..Xavier...do you really.." she stuttered and her eyes flashed. She locked her eyes with his, his crimson stare drawing her in.

UNFINISHED POST;

.Miho wasn't in her school uniform, though, it was because she got home and realized that she left her bag in the library. She sighed as she dragged her feet in the hallway, hoping no one noticed her. The Night classes always had scared her. She yawned, looking at her watch, noticing it was past her normal bed-time, so she ran down to the library, and gaspped. Amber and Xavier! How was she going to get passed them? Her heart sunk, was this to be the end of her mornings? she shuddered. Of course not! She walked in, and waved to the two. "Forgot my bag," she muttered, not looking at them, picking it up and turning to leave. "Don't mind me," she sighed.

[Karasu.//]

Amber glanced over. "I see," the female vampire licked her fangs slightly but had no intentions of taking her feed on a human. The new tablets Headmaster Cross had provided were enough to fill. She stared at Xavier a moment and looked back to Miho. Wasn't she the new girl at CA, who never wore the uniform? It was a wonder Yuki, Zero or Headmaster Cross didn't say anything. "Aren't you Miho...?" she asked softly, her teal eyes flickering. She showed no signs of trying to offend the femme, casually slumping over the desk she was at with Xavier. "Eh?"

[Judai]

The blue-haired girl spun around, her sapphire-gaze staring at the female vampire. "Y--Yes, I'm Nosaka. Nosaka, Miho." she tilted her head to the side, placing her bag over her shoulder, and yawning lightly. "I'm sorry, if I sound cruel.... But..." she bit her lower lip, sighing. "I'm sorry, Miss Amber. I just came all the way from home to get my bag, and it's really late, and my parent's will freak if I stay to long." she bowed, closing her sapphire eyes, before reopening them, and standing back up, biting her lip once more, waiting for a responce.

[Karasu.//]

Amber blinked. What the hell was she doing in the Moon dorms library if she was a Day Class student? Whatever, it doesn't concern me. she smiled. "Sound cruel? By all means. But I suggest taking that corridor out," she pointed to the right; behind her. "It's dangerous the way you came, Nosaka." her lilac hair swung as she swivled; hopping out of the seat. She strode to the door and opened it, holding her hand out for her to go. "If you have any trouble here at Cross Academy, Nosaka-chan, just call me and I'll come. Y'know," she paused, quieting her voice. "Not all of us are bad," she sighed.

[Judai]

Miho smiled at the girl. "S-sure, I'll be fine, and I'm here, because some jerk took my bag in here earlier, and... I finally brought up the courage to come here," she blinked, half to herself, as she walked the direction the vampiress pointed. "T-thank you, Amber-san." She looked lightly embarrassed at the girl's offer to help her out. "And not all of you scare me. Spook, sure. Scare? nah." she giggled to herself. She then took a few steps back, before pausing and taking a few steps away. "I-I don't know if you'd want me to shake your hand... or not.."

[Karasu.//]

Amber couldn't help it any longer. She laughed quietly., placing a delicate hand on her stomach. "Nosaka-chan. Don't be so.. shy?" she giggled. She took the girl's hand in her own and shook. "It's no problem! Only be 'spooked' by the ones that threaten. And Xavier; he's okay too. My brother too, Karasu Hane. Speaking of him, I wonder where he is.." she trailed off in thought but snapped back. "And to add, if any vamp gives you trouble; male or female, tell me who it was. Or what they looked like at least. It's forbidden to.." she broke off, aware of a few stares on her talking casually with the human girl. "Well, you'd better go then," she left a slip of paper in the girls hand as she took hers away. The parchment held her cell number on it, her name and a list of vampires to watch out for. She slightly winked and trotted back to her desk, opening her book once more.

[rai]

Xavier grunted. Look at the human and vampire. Quite pitiful, his thoughts echoed. He stood, stretched and walked over with a yawn. "Oi, Nosaka-kun. Welcome to Cross Academy," he followed when Amber went back to the desk. Why didn't he say anything more to the human girl? Tch. She was new. And her blue hair reminded him somewhat of Karasu. "Amber-chan, where is your brother anyway?" he asked softly. His tattoo itched. Tch. d**n ink, his mood suddenly went to the gutters. Why? That girl had interfered with he and Amber. Either way, something would've happened. He sighed, crimson eyes flashing.
