Sayori Wakaba

Sayori Wakaba (若葉沙頼, Wakaba Sayori?), Yuki's dorm-mate and bestfriend since junior high, Yuki often refers to her as Yori-chan. Yori seems to be one of the few girls who is not interested in the Night Class. She finds them a bit scary and stated that she would prefer someone from the day class. Yori is also very observant, as she notices a lot of things that happen to Yuki, especially when she gets hurt or is very depressed.

Plot summary
Yori's part in the story is relatively small. She spends a lot of time worried about Yuki not geting enough sleep and having nightmares. She teases Yuki when Ichiru reveals that Zero has feelings for Yuki and confirms Yori's suspicions, although the whole matter isn't clear to Yuki. Yori finds out that Yuki is a vampire after Aido protected her from a Level E vampire, who served Rido. Despite that fact, Yori still accepts Yuki and appeared to be more worried over the fact that she would lose her best friend. Because of the recent events at Cross Academy, she is taken to a safe place by Aidou on Yuki's orders. After the attack is over, she defends Aido when the other day class girls are afraid of him.

Trivia
Wakaba means "young leaves." Her given name, Sayori, is a combination of sa meaning "sand", and yori, meaning "trust."
