FIRST STORY! :D I got the idea from the amazing song Loving You Tonight by Andrew Allen. The story follows the song, so if you want to listen to it, please do :)
No flames please, but constructive criticism is perfectly fine! :)
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN YU-GI-OH OR THE SONG.
Seto Kaiba closed his eyes and took a deep breath for the seemingly hundredth time that day.
Work was long and dragging, and if he saw another packet of things he didn't care about he might lose it. He knew that this was just the same as the days before; work was always like this. Thinking about it, he wished he could say that his life was just black and white, work and family. But now his life was bright and full of color, starting when an Egyptian woman joined his life one year ago. He smiled when he thought of Ishizu, the beautiful woman who would be waiting for him at the mansion. He sighed and thought of what they could do when he got home, maybe a romantic evening with red wine. He shook his head. I'll think of something later. he decided.
Still in thought, he mentally listed the wonderful things about Ishizu. She had a very caring attitude towards anyone. Whether it was a child they didn't know, Mokuba, or even Seto himself, she was always there to help. It was something Seto wasn't used to at first, but learned to love. She was also the only woman he knew that could make him happy without trying. He pulled out a picture of him, Ishizu, and Mokuba on Christmas. They had spent the holiday in England, as well as it being an early birthday present for Mokuba. They were posed in front of a huge, decorated Christmas tree. He put the photo on his desk as motivation for this long day.
The sluggish feelings soon came back. He wished Ishizu were here with him. Though the picture worked for a bit, he was practically dead now. He looked at the picture again and smiled to himself. The three looked so happy together; even Seto was smiling! He was smiling at Ishizu. That's what I'm coming home to, he thought. A new idea came to him. Maybe a relaxing slow dance? he suggested to himself, but scoffed at it soon after. Dancing? Seto Kaiba? Definitely not.
After lots of working, Seto was beginning to drift off yet again. He couldn't though, because there was so much to be done. Ishizu motivated him, but why did she make him lose his focus too? He tried getting back to the details of a deal that had to be closed, but he couldn't concentrate. However, he realized Ishizu would be home already, so why couldn't he as well?
His eyelids were drooping again, and the packet he was reading blurred. He looked at the clock on the wall. Finally, after counting their hours of separation, Seto decided enough was enough. He got back home as fast as he could to his waiting girlfriend.
As Seto walked through the door of his house, he saw Ishizu walking towards him. "Hey." he greeted, setting his stuff down. "Baby, how's your day?" Ishizu asked, turning to embrace him. "Crazy," he simply said, "but it's alright now." She smiled, and kissed him lightly. She was about to turn around when Seto pulled her in for a deeper kiss. She laughed a little, and returned it with as much love. His hands on the small of her back, he dipped her a little. She deepened the kiss, her arms tightening around the back of his neck-
"Hey, let's eat!" Mokuba shouted from the dining room. Ishizu pushed away from Seto, as hard as it was. "Coming!" she shouted back and turned to tell Seto about her day.
"Anyway, I let an intern give the tours, because I-" Ishizu was cut off when Seto suddenly turned her around and embraced her. "Well, this is very nice..." she murmured, her face nuzzled in his toned chest. "Shh..." Seto shushed her and held her close. He didn't need wine or slow dances to relax. Just holding Ishizu melted his stress away. He was loving her tonight.
And for all the nights to come.
