I loved you from afar
Chapter 3:
'....' thoughts
~~~~~~Serenity's POV~~~~~~
It wasn't until we got to the cafeteria entrance that Seto finally released my arm.
"I'll see you tonight," he murmured. "Your house at 6:30?"
After he gave me a soft kiss on the cheek, he walked off as if nothing had happened between us. It took me a couple moments to snap out of the daze I was in, but I soon found where the 'gang' was sitting and headed over there. I sat down at the only available seat, which unfortunately was next to Tristan.
"Hey baby!" Tristan greeted me, slinging an arm around my shoulders as if he owned me. The guy is a bit possessive, don't ya think?. I peeled his arm away, trying not to look disgusted. He looked unfazed though. "Guess who I'm going to the dance with tonight?"
'Personally, I couldn't care less' I thought, but manner got the best of me.
"Who?" I asked politely.
"You, of course!" Tristan replied.
I turned to glare at Jou for 'giving his permission/acceptance', but he looked as confused and angry as I.
"Who said ya could go to the dance wit' ma' sista?" he demanded, rising from his place at the table. Tristan stood also, hands clenched into fists. Luckily I jumped in before they could start a fight.
"I hate to burst your bubble, but I'm already going with someone," I said. "Sorry Tristan."
Tristan started to open his mouth to ask who, but Mai beat him to it.
"So who's the lucky guy?" she asked.
"yeah, who?" Jou echoed.
'If I told Jou I was going with Kaiba, he'd flip!'
"um...someone." I replied uncomfortably. Jou cocked an eyebrow curiously. I gulped.
"Joe Someone." I added hastily.
"I've neva heard of 'im." Jou scratched his head and turned to Mai. "Have you?"
I looked at Mai, pleading her to say yes.
"Yes." she said calmly as I sighed in relief. "I know him."
"What's he like?" Jou asked, looking suspiciously at me before returning his gaze back to Mai.
Luckily Mai caught on quickly. As she started weaving a tale about "Joe Someone", I decided I'd better leave.
"I'll be right back." I muttered as I rose from the table. It was all I could do to keep from running out of the cafeteria toward the library.
******Seto's POV*****
"See you tonight." I murmured. "Your house at 6:30?"
She gave a slight nod. I kissed her cheek, gently brushing my lips against her soft skin and with a slight wink, I strolled off toward the library.
I sat down at an empty table and opened my laptop. I positioned my hands above the keyboard as I racked my brain for something that needed to be typed before coming up with a blank. Wierd, I was suddenly at a loss for something to type. Everything seemed to insignificant to be worth my time.My mind kept drifting back to Serenity, wondering if she was thinking about me the way I was about her. I sighed and put my laptop away. Maybe I'll go see what Serenity's up to....
~~~~Serenity's POV~~~~
Once I was outside the cafeteria doors, I started to sprint for the library. Whenever I felt like being alone, the library offered peace and solace because no one was ever there except the librarians. Right around one more bend in the hallway was the library doors.
As I made my way around the bend, I was suddenly involved in a fiery passionate kiss. When we finally came up for air, I managed to whisper, "Seto." acknowledging his presence. We immediately enagaged in a needy, demanding kiss. I let my finger trace the outline of his chest while he gently started to nip at my neck. I moaned both in slight pain and longing before I captured his lips with my own once more.
"Joe Someone is awfully cute," I heard someone say behind me.
Without looking, I knew it was Mai.
"So the rumors are true," she announced almost gleefully. "You two really are going out!" To her, this was just more gossip.
"Please don't tell anyone, ok?" I begged.
"Of course I won't! It'll be our little secret." Mai winked and headed back toward the cafeteria,but I knew by last period about half the school would know. Mai was notorious for her big mouth.
"oh, and by the way, I think you'd better get a scarf or something to cover up your neck," she giggled as she walked away.
I ran to the nearest bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. Mai was right. There were little red bite marks all over the left side of my neck. Seto came in behind me, looking over my shoulder at the mirror.
"Admiring my handiwork? A masterpiece if I do say so myself..." he said, trying to lighten the mood while he sucked mercilessly on my neck.
"Seto!" I scolded, gently pushing him away. "What am I gonna do? Someone's bound to notice and they'll tell my brother!" I turned to face him and he enveloped me in his arms, pulling me close.
"I think this calls for an emergency shopping spree and that means cutting class..." Seto said, kissing my forehead.
I frowned, "but Jou will notice I'm not in History…"
"Don't worry about it…just tell him you were sick," Seto suggested. "Come on!"
I must have looked doubtful because the next thing I knew, he was carrying me toward the back entrance to the school where we found his limo 'conveniently' waiting for us. He must cut class alot; this seemed almost routine to him. He dumped me unceremoniously on the seat and slid in after me.
Little did we know as we drove off, someone had been watching us….
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm sorry it took so long but I'm dealing with a combination of writer's block and laziness. Just so you know, I probably won't update this until I update "Love among Friends" which might be a while....
Who was watching them? If you guess right, I'll give you a cookie! lol ^.^
