Never To Be

By:Silent Sniper

Chapter 3:Remembering

Seto stayed up at night, unable to sleep. Navy blue sheets made out of satin tangled around his lean body. His mind was empty of all except for the decison that was to be made. He didn't want to face Yugi. He was afraid that he would do something wrong and be in shame. He stretched and fell back into thoughts.

How did he fall in love with Yugi exactly?

When they first met, Seto held a grudge against him, but then he began to respect the small duelist. Still he held him accountable for his defeats, but knew that Yugi was not responsible for it. It was him. He didn't have a heart like Yugi. The duelist might be small and sky, but his heart was made out of gold. He remembered when Yugi tried to warn him about Pegasus and then the tears after his soul slowely left his body.

He looked so sad....tears coarsing down his round cheeks. Seto had been surprised. To see his rival cry. It made his heart melt. Then in those long months he had watched Yugi. He was so beautiful. His black hair and magenta tips with blond bangs. His big violet eyes filled with innocence and kindness. So gentle with everyone and forgiving anyone.

So beautiful......

He even forgave him. Him. The cold CEO that nearly killed his grandfather. Killed his only relative. Then he beat him in a duel without mercy.

Taunted him.

Mocked his friends.

Yet Yugi still didn't snap. He remained calm and tried to get closer to him. Ever since then Seto kept his eye on the Mouto boy.

It was almost like an obsession.

Observing the violet eyed boy and felt his his heart grow warm with something. He denied it at first, but the feeling had grown stronger until it hurt to see him.

"Yes, thats what happened..."Seto whispered and smiled as he stared at his ceiling.

He loved him.

Thats all there was to it.

No fluffy words

Nor poetic expressions....

It was pure love. Pure as water....Crystal clear.

All he wanted to do was taste Yugi's soft lips and hold him tight against him. Whisper words of love in his ear and protect him from all harm....Thats all he wanted.

"I love you, Yugi...." he whispered as he fell asleep.

Yes! The 3rd chapter. Do you understand how Seto fell in love with Yugi? I didn't want to start from the beginning and climb up there. Decided to try something new. ^^; Disclaimers: Yu-Gi-Oh does not belong to me.
