My Sanctuary

A/N: Well here is another one-shot faithshipping fic by yours truly. This idea sprouted after listening to the song 'Sanctuary' from Kingdom Hearts 2 and I thought of Aki and Yusei and how I can make this, well enjoy. Also note this is all in Aki's POV.

It was one of those weird feelings that I got in the morning. Most people I know or have heard about hate getting up in the morning, I on the other hand don't. Why should I? I have my own 'Sanctuary' whilst I'm lay here concealed with 'it'. Of course it isn't a building this sanctuary but it is a certain person, the man who had opened my heart. Yusei Fudo.

He may have not been the most talkative person I knew and like me he was very closed up but it is strange how much two people so alike can be attracted to each other. After all wasn't it meant to be opposites that attract? Well to be honest it didn't matter to me why should it have mattered to me, after all that happened in my life was it wrong to finally feel happiness in the arms of this man.

I will never forget that day when he confessed how he felt to me. It was a shock at first but I couldn't deny that I felt the same way either. It had been when we returned to Tops after the time that we defeated the Dark Signers. I couldn't get to sleep that night so I had went into the pool area outside of the apartment so I could think things through. Little did I know the footsteps coming up behind me?

"Aki are you alright?" Yusei asked me, I jumped at the sound of his voice he had come out of nowhere but still it was nice to have his company.

"I just couldn't sleep." I replied noticing that he was only half dressed, it was clear that he couldn't have been sleeping either if he had been up at this hour.

"Is that all? It isn't like you to just be wondering around at night you know?" Yusei said smiling a bit which was fairly rare for him. Still it was a pretty cute smile.

"Well to be honest I have been thinking about what happens now. I mean you nearly got yourself killed by the Dark Signers and well...I...I...I was worried about you. You know that right?" I stuttered out, what was with me? I never stuttered.

Yusei looked slightly shocked by my behaviour but so was I so I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised. After a second of this shocked expression he smiled once again. "Thank you Aki I'm happy to know that you were worried about me. To be honest through that whole experience against Rudger and it felt like I could die. There was only one person I was thinking of."

This was my turn to be shocked what on earth was he on about? "Oh and who was that?" I asked. I may have been confused but something in the way he spoke to me made me feel calmer and more relaxed then I had felt in a very long time.

If you thought it was possible for me to not be as shocked as I had already been oh how wrong you were. Yusei reached out and slowly began to wrap his arms around my waist, for some reason instead of battering him off I just relaxed in his arms. After all he had one of those strong but loving grips. "It was you." He said simply but I could hear a loving somewhat passionate tone in his voice.

I could feel my cheeks burn, so this was what it felt like to blush. I tried to hide it by turning my head away from him, however I could hear Yusei chuckle he must of been amused by behaviour. It was then that I felt him raise one of his hands from my waist before he placed a finger on my chin and slowly made my head turn towards him. I looked deep into his dark dashing blue eyes; it was like I was gazing into the ocean surrounding an island.

"You don't have to be embarrassed I do mean what I said Aki. I was worried I wouldn't be able to gaze into your eyes or even feel the softness of your hair again. In simpler words I love Aki." Yusei said as he looked deeply into my eyes his fingers were now brushing through my hair.

My eyes widened and his sudden confession. Did he really love me? "Yusei how can you love someone like me? Didn't I cause you so much pain before all of this happened?" I asked him my face was still on fire from my heavy blushing.

Yusei didn't even seem taken back by these questions as he continued to run his fingers through my hair. "Aki wounds can heal easily but what I could never get to grips with was telling you how I felt about you. You're the most beautiful girl I have ever met in my life, plus despite your past I can see the real you are just like a rose. You may be sharp but there is still nothing more beautiful than a rose. This is what I see in you Aki please tell me you love me too."

I could barely believe what I was hearing. Yusei was confessing his love for me, I felt funny like I was going to faint in his arms but I kept myself under control. "Yusei I...I love you too. When you nearly died I was so scared that you wouldn't live that I couldn't help but stay by your side. When I'm with you my fears and pain seem to disappear like you are some kind of angel which prevents all my pain and wraps me in its wings for safety." I finally managed to get out after a while as I wrapped my arms around his waist.

We both pitched closer together I could feel his warm breath on my face as our lips got closer before the fated kiss happened. His lips were soft and warm against mine, I had never felt a feeling like this before, and we pulled away for a short while. I smiled before I threw my arms around his neck and reached in for another kiss. I let his tongue enter my mouth our tongue's danced a soft but passionate dance, his wrapped around mine before I flipped his around and my tongue played with his. So this is what people call passion.

We pulled away after a while needing breath. Yusei smiled once again before picking me up bridal style I had a feeling I knew where this was heading.

So this is how I ended in his arms in my bed. No matter what I knew that Yusei would always be there for me and now I was happy with my pain and fears gone in his warm embrace. I stroked his face his soft skin felt amazing on my fingers he slowly woke up noticing what I was doing.

"Hey beautiful how are you feeling?" He said lovingly as his got one of his hand and pulled my fingers towards his mouth where he kissed them before licking his lips he must of enjoyed the taste.

"Yes I'm just happy that you are here with me being my sanctuary from all the bad stuff that this world can throw at me." I smiled before gently kissing him on his lips.

"I will always look after you Aki this is one of the ways I can show my love for you." He smiled before pulling me close and kissing my forehead. I was just happy that he was there I buried my head in his muscular chest. No matter what he will always be my love, my saviour. My sanctuary.
