I awoke the next morning in Seto's bed. The events of last night suddenly flooded back, and I smiled. I wasn't wasting my time in having a crush on Seto Kaiba; he obviously felt the same way.
I fluttered my eyes open, and I saw my hand on top of his, I flickered my eyes to his face and I saw him softly looking down on me.
"Were you watching me sleep?" I asked softly, rubbing my eyes.
"Yes, I was." He replied just as softly
"Why would you do that? You weren't doing it for long were you?" I asked.
"I did it because you looked so peaceful and beautiful. And no, only about 10 minutes or so." Seto replied.
Gosh, that's so cheesy and romantic. Never thought I'd ever hear that out of Seto Kaiba's mouth.
I checked the time on Seto's bed stand, it was just after 10 o' clock. I was rested up, and I was pretty sure Seto didn't run on much sleep, you know with school and a company to run and all.
Seto grabbed his boxers from the floor, and put them on. I copied his actions by putting on my underwear. I went to reach for my business clothes, but Seto noticed and stopped me.
"Ella, you'll look silly if you wear your corporate clothes on a Saturday." Seto told me.
"Maybe, but it's either them or my school uniform." I shrugged.
"How about you take a nice shower to cleanse yourself for the day, and give me both your school uniform and corporate wear. I'll have them dry cleaned for you as quickly as possible. When you're done, come into here and you'll see the solution I have for you." Seto said.
"Oh uh, yeah okay I do feel kind of…ick." I replied.
I went over to give Seto a hug before I went into his ensuite, but during the hug he pulled my head up with my chin and gave me a big, passionate kiss.
He's such a good kisser! How has this guy never had a girlfriend?
I scurried into the bathroom, and turned the tap on to get the water running. I stripped out of my underwear, and turned to the large mirror on the wall. I had a hair tie around my wrist that I kept there all day yesterday, and I decided to use it now to tie my hair up. I'd have another shower and wash my hair then, for now I'll just tie it up into a ponytail.
I made the water temperature perfect, and then I jumped into the shower. Because I didn't need to wash my hair I didn't really need to do much in the shower, but I took my sweet time in cleansing my body. I was in the mood for a relaxing shower, and I needed to wake up anyway.
After I was finally done, I stepped out and wrapped one of Seto's fluffy blue towels around me. I dried myself off a little so I wouldn't drip too much onto the carpet, and stepped back into Seto's room.
The room was empty, but I saw some clothes on the bed, as well as a note on top of them.
I've heard you complain about buying clothes to Kathryn, so I got these custom made for you. – SK
My gaze turned to the clothes under the note. The first article of clothing was my singlet top that I wear under my uniform. He must have gotten it dry-cleaned instantly. But under that singlet was a pair of jeans. I looked at the shape of them. They seemed like they would fit my body type, so I squealed and tried them on. They did!
I had a lot of problem buying jeans due to my body type, so I was excited that a pair finally fit me! I quickly put on the white singlet top, and I flipped the note over to read that Seto wanted me in the kitchen after I got dressed.
Problem was, where the hell is the kitchen?
I exited Seto's bedroom, and began wandering down the hall.
"Miss Campbell, do you need help navigating around the house?" I heard a voice ask.
I turned around and saw one of Seto's maids standing there, looking a little concerned.
"I swear I'm not a slut!" I said quickly, knowing what she must think.
"I'm not here to judge you, miss. Besides, I know Mr. Kaiba wouldn't pick a hussy. I think no less of you because you stayed over the night." The maid said, smiling.
"Oh that's a relief! In that case, yeah, please show me how you get to the kitchen." I said, pleased that such a friendly face was here to help me.
"I'm Marie, by the way." The maid said, as we walked down the grand staircase.
"Ella Campbell, as you already seem to know. Thanks a lot for your help, means a lot to me." I said once we arrived at the kitchen.
She smiled, curtsied and left, leaving me to walk into the kitchen.
Seto was sitting at the dining table, reading the local newspaper.
"Anything good?" I asked, taking a seat.
"Not really." He shrugged, setting aside the paper.
"Billy!" Kaiba called loudly, and a man quickly ran into the room.
He was slightly overweight, with dark, dark black hair like the maid; he had a friendly look to him.
"Yes, Mr. Kaiba?" This 'Billy' asked
"Today for breakfast I think I'll go with a traditional English breakfast. Ella, what would you like for breakfast?" Kaiba asked.
"You mean I can ask for anything and he'll cook it for me?" I asked, quite amazed.
"I'll be glad to. I became a chef because cooking is my passion. Just give me something to cook within reason, and I'll serve it up ASAP." Billy smiled.
"I guess I'll um, have crepes then." I replied.
"What flavour would you like? Any special toppings?" Billy asked.
"Um, normal?" I asked, not really sure what other varieties there were.
"I'll cook up something nice." Billy winked, and scampered off to the food preparation area of the kitchen.
"Where's Mokuba?" I asked Seto.
"He's away on a school camp, he will be coming home tomorrow night." Seto explained.
After eating a very delicious breakfast (compliments to the chef!) and spending some time discussing economics, business and politics with Seto it was decided that I should probably go home to finish off any errands I needed to do this weekend.
I jumped into the back with Seto, and he got very affectionate by holding me close to him, cuddling me in a very affectionate way.
"I hope I didn't scare you last night, and ruined anything we may have by moving too fast." Seto said, our faces very close.
"No, things needed to happen. We had way too many 'near kiss' scenarios. If last night didn't happen, things may have never happened between us." I smiled, reflecting on everything that happened the night before.
"So you agree, you wanted things to happen?" Seto asked me.
"I did. And still do." I said, immediately looking into his eyes.
I was less than subtly hinting that he had not asked me to be his girlfriend yet, and I didn't want things to stand still.
"Okay then." He said, and quickly looked away.
I pouted, and he quickly looked back and laughed.
"Ella, will you be my girlfriend?" He asked, as we pulled up to my house.
"Okay then," I smirked, copying his actions and looking away "I'd love to."
"Well then, how about tonight I take you out to a fancy restaurant?" Seto asked me.
"Already splashing your cash around to show off I see. Sure, I'll take advantage of this. How fancy are we talking?" I asked.
"Wear your best dress and pretty yourself up. I'll be around at 8PM." Seto replied.
We shared a few kisses for a while, until Seto insisted that I go do chores and homework so I'd have time to pretty myself up for tonight. I reluctantly got out, but like hell I was going to do chores and homework, I had a lot of things to tell people.
