I decided to try my hand at some Vampire Knight, so here's my first VK fanfic:

Summary: All Ichijou wanted to do was read the new manga he got. That's all...but then he overheard Kaname and now, he's stuck with him.


Ch. 1-An Angry Vampire

Ichijou was very cheerful as he picked up the newest manga volume of his favorite series. He had waited months for it to come out and now he finally had it. Flipping past the title page, he started on the newest chapter. Halfway through, he didn’t even register that people were shouting right outside of his door. He knew Yuuki had stopped by recently, but from what it sounded like, she wasn’t very happy. Ichijou tried to ignore it, but she kept getting louder. Sighing, he took the bookmark out from his mouth, not noticing how chewed up it seemed, and placed it in his book. His curiosity always got the best of him when it involved Kaname and Yuuki.

Creeping over to the door, he pressed his ear against it and listened to the conversation.

“…And yet you always suspect him just because he hasn’t been a vampire as long as you have.”

“Yuuki-”

“And then because you doubt him all the time, he always threatens to do something equally as mean to you.”

“Really, Yuuki…”

There was a pause, then Ichijou heard Yuuki speak up, “I remember when he once pointed his revolver at you. And you…didn’t flinch.”

The blond vampire heard the dorm leader sigh. He then said, “That is in the past. Zero knows he cannot kill me so easily. No matter how many times he threatens to kill me, I know he won’t do it.”

Yuuki then asked, “How do you know?”

“Because you would never allow it to happen, Yuuki.”

Ichijou was getting anxious to finish his manga and almost abandoned eavesdropping, but remained positioned behind the door.

“Kaname…senpai…I’m sorry. I forgot-I need to go. It’s getting late.”

Ichijou heard feet running down the hall and guessed that Yuuki left the scene, but what concerned him the most now was the dorm president. He had said something so passionate to Yuuki, and she treated it like it was nothing. Ichijou considered that very rude behavior, but didn’t say anything on account of what happened then. The light fixture in his room came crashing down and he jumped slightly, revealing himself to Kaname who was behind his door.

Backing up, Ichijou saw Kaname slam the door open with such force. Ichijou gulped.

“Why do you look so frightened, Ichijou?” He asked casually, heading toward Ichijou’s lounge area. Passing the blond, Kaname sat down and stretched out on the couch as if it were his own.

“S-Sorry, Kaname. I was just…”

Ichijou cut off when he saw the troubled look on his friend’s face. He noticed that whenever Kaname was around Yuuki he would get a mysterious look about him, but now, he looked as if he had been hurt. Ichijou frowned and closed the door to his room. He then stepped closer as he addressed him to make sure he was okay.

“I’m sorry,” Kaname said, putting a hand over his eyes as if sunlight were shining through the window. Ichijou double-checked to make sure there wasn’t any sun. “I suppose I just need to rest.”

“Rest?” Ichijou repeated. He could sense that it was growing late and that the rest of the vampires would be up and about soon.

Kaname nodded. Ichijou felt silly standing in front of him, so he bowed and said, “I’ll let you be then.”

Ichijou started to leave the room when Kaname stopped him.

“Ichijou,” The blond turned. “What all did you hear?”

Ichijou felt sweat pouring down the back of his neck as he said stupidly, “wh-what do you mean?”

“Come now, Ichijou, you and I both know you overheard the conversation between Yuuki and I.”

Ichijou stayed quiet.

“Ichijou?”

“Ahh…” He was stunned. He didn’t know what he could say. Of course he had heard most of the conversation, but he didn’t want to disturb the dorm president if he was indeed going to take a nap.

“I guess you heard most of it then.” Kaname resumed when his friend didn’t speak. “It’s okay. I suppose you wish to finish it?”

Ichijou looked at Kaname, puzzled. The pureblood smiled slightly as he elaborated, “the manga you were reading.”

“Oh! Right.” Ichijou said, laughing nervously. He did want to finish it, but he didn’t move any further to reach it. Kaname noticed his stiff composure. “Ichijou, is something wrong?”

“N-No. Why?” Ichijou asked, not completely convinced in his own tone of voice.

“You seem unusually jumpy for some reason.” Kaname observed.

Ichijou stuck his hands in his pockets as he rebutted, “No, I just…” He sighed as he couldn’t think of a good enough excuse for the dorm president.

“Is it because the chandelier fell?” Kaname asked.

Ichijou stared at the broken light fixture and shrugged as he said, “It can be replaced.”

Kaname glanced at him, then got up from the couch as he stepped over to where Ichijou was rooted. He regarded Ichijou familiarly as he said, “I fear for you and the others.”

Ichijou seemed confused. “Pardon?”

“Sometimes when I’m angry, I become a menace. I would not wish to harm you or the rest of the Night Class. So…I’m asking you to tie me up.”

A/N: I know this part was kind of short, but I'm hoping the deeper it gets, the more I'll put into it. Just thought I'd throw it out there.

ichijou, vampire knight, kaname
