Drabble and Then… You
How about it, Miss Isis?
No, I don't think so.
Always it's like this. Always I am pushed aside. You're just an idiot, remember, Jonouchi? No one likes you, except for Yugi, except for Honda.
So many girls I know… so many that hate me. Isis Ishtar, nope, she thinks I'm an insufferable idiot. Anzu Mazaki, no, she thinks that I'm too desperate. Cecilia Pegasus… well, if she were alive, she'd probably side with Isis. Serenity… wow, a pattern is forming here!
They say I'm too hard on myself. Then they turn and tell the world that I failed yet another test, opening the door to more ridicule.
But you don't seem to care. Actually, you don't seem to care about much, no matter who it comes from. Unless it's about your stock, you don't listen.
Your opinion doesn't matter to me. Their opinion does, because they are the normal people. Not like you. You just sit in front of a computer all day, doing all of your business stuff.
Why can't you go off with the other geniuses? You make me sick, Seto Kaiba.
Okay, one reason. Every girl on this planet that has seen you loves you. How many times has Isis asked you on a date? Anzu? Serenity? Exactly. How about me? Can you somehow turn off your attractiveness…? Or something along those lines…?
Reason number two: You're smart. Very smart, so smart that we normal people have to practically fly to keep up with you. How can one teenager know so much? Okay, you own a corporation. That contributes to some of it, but we can't all own corporations! Duh!
Reason number three, perhaps the most important reason of all…
You told me that you loved me. I can imagine that look of shock on my face. How can someone so powerful, so affluent, so smart want some nobody like me? How can someone that prosperous be like that?
Okay, Ellen DeGeneres is as affluent as you. But that doesn't count, okay?!
I can tell that the cold shell around you is just an act, one to make people think that nothing has changed between you and anyone else.
I don't want to melt that shell. I'm content with being dumped by Isis for the billionth time.
Maybe there's an icy shell around my heart too. Is that what you sense about me?
Then maybe we're perfect for each other…
…in your mind. Please keep this in your mind, I beg of you, Kaiba. Because if you don't I'll kill you.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Yugioh.
A/N: My first serious Yugioh fic (I am not counting Kaiba Plays Simon Says as a serious fic, people…) so I'm a bit nervous about how this one turned out. Review this one please – this is the only one that I really worry about… that is, until my strange Bond fiction gets up here…
