~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kaiba was walking down the sidewalk
and towards his mansion, his hands shoved in his trench coat pockets. It was
pretty cold out, and it was seven o'clock in the evening. He groaned as he
remembered that he was late for dinner with his little brother, Mokuba. He loved
his little brother, and he'd do anything for the little black-haired youngster.
He hurried down the sidewalk,
wondering if it could get any longer than it already seemed. In his hurry, he
nearly knocked down another pedestrian. He turned around to apologize.
"I'm sor-" He stopped dead in his mid
sentence, and gawped at who was standing in front of him. Who he had nearly
knocked.
"Oh, hello, Kaiba." Shizuka said
softly in her sweet and quiet voice. Kaiba nearly found it to be coated in
sugar, he found her to be that sweet. "I'm sorry about bumping into you
like that… Why were you in such a hurry?"
"I – My – supper with my brother." He
answered, lost in Shizuka's beautiful green eyes. He was glad that he didn't
lose his composure in front of her.
"Well, see you soon!" Shizuka said
with a friendly smile on her face. She waved goodbye to him, and turned back
around to go back on her way to wherever she was going. Kaiba watched as her
hair blew slightly in the wind. He couldn't help but wonder what she had meant
about seeing him soon.
He watched her until she disappeared
around a corner, and he could no longer see the beautiful Shizuka anymore.
Sighing, he turned back around, and went back home to his mansion.
"Big brother! You're late! You were
supposed to come home at 6:30! I was worried about you!" Mokuba threw himself
at his brother, and hugged him with all his might.
"I'm sorry Mokuba." Kaiba smiled one
of his rare smiles, and ruffled Mokuba's black hair. "I was late getting out of
the meeting, and the limo stalled a few blocks away."
"Oh, it's alright, Seto. But come one!
The food will get cold if we don't eat it right away!" Mokuba grabbed Kaiba by
his arm, and dragged him into the kitchen. He could only laugh at his little brother's
eagerness.
He sat down beside his little brother
at the table, and they ate in near complete silence. Except for the occasional
muffled 'mmm' from both Kaiba brothers.
"That was really good!" Seto exclaimed
as he pushed away his plate, and leaned back in his chair, completely relaxed
and calm. The complete opposite of what he had felt only a little while before.
"I know! I made it myself! But I had a
little help from the chef." Mokuba grinned as he finished the last of his
supper. (A/N: Just imagine whatever kind of supper you want! ^_^)
"It was delicious." Kaiba said with a
small smile on his face. He patted Mokuba's head, and got up from the table. "I
have to go work on some things for another meeting tomorrow." Kaiba stretched,
and gave out a small yawn.
"Oh, big brother, you should take a
break for once! You work too much!" Mokuba pulled him in the opposite direction
of his office, and dragged him into the family room.
"Watch some television with me, big
brother! I've asked a friend to come over in a while, too! I'm sure you could
take a little break, couldn't you?" Mokuba gave Kaiba a sweet smile, and Kaiba
melted.
"Alright, little brother. But just for
you. And just this once." Kaiba said sternly, then smiled.
"Alright." Mokuba smiled, and turned
on the television. He then muttered something that only he heard. "Well see,
big brother, we'll see…" He smirked, before sitting down on the floor in front
of the t.v..
Thirty minutes later, the doorbell rang
out loudly, snapping Mokuba out of his trance like state, and he jumped up and
ran to the door before his brother could get up. He emerged from the doorway
once more a few minutes later, but with someone quite unexpected behind him.
Shizuka. Kaiba gasped softly when he saw who it was, and tried to remain calm.
'Breathe, Kaiba, breathe!' He reminded himself mentally.
"Hello!" Shizuka said and smiled
sweetly at Kaiba as she was led by Mokuba over to the couch. "I'm still sorry
for bumping into you on the sidewalk!"
"I-It's alright." Seto choked out. "It
was my fault."
"Oh, no it wasn't. But I guess it's
alright. Jou always tells me not to worry about as much as I do, but I guess
it's in my nature."
"The mutt told you that?" Kaiba
chuckled.
"Yes, my brother, Seto." She giggled.
"Oh, I hope you don't mind me calling you Seto, do you? Because I just figured
it would get confusing if I called you 'Kaiba' when your brother was around."
"Oh, it's quite all right." Kaiba
sighed, still staring at Shizuka.
"Oh! I just remembered! I promised my
friends that I would go online tonight and remind them about something or
other! And just remember, there's some cake in the fridge!!! I'll be back down
later!" Mokuba ran out of the family room with a laugh, a wink, and a wave to
them both before Seto could reply.
"Oh, dear, I guess it's just you and
me, then." Shizuka smiled, and a faint tinge of pink appeared on her cheeks.
"Yeah, sorry about that. Mokuba
doesn't usually bring over company and leave them unattended." Kaiba slowly
rose to his feet.
"Well, I'm not completely unattended,
you're still here." She pointed out with a sweet smile.
"I guess you're right." Seto nodded.
"Where are my manners! Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"
"Sure! Well, that is, if you're
hungry!" Shizuka said politely.
"Sure, why not? Mokuba did say there
was cake in the refrigerator. Let's go find some." Kaiba smiled as soon as
Shizuka looked away for a moment, and he led her into the kitchen.
Shizuka sat down at the table, in
Kaiba's normal spot, and he went over to get the cake. He came back to the
table a few seconds later with a huge, delicious looking strawberry ice cream
cake. Shizuka licked her lips, and Seto nearly lost his footing when he saw it.
Luckily, he didn't drop the cake, and set it down on the table.
"It's already melting! I guess Mokuba
forgot that the ice cream cake usually stays in the freezer if you want to keep
it frozen." Shizuka laughed, and pulled some of her brown hair out of her face.
"Y-Yeah…" Kaiba stared into her green
eyes for a few moments, before remembering the plates and forks and knives.
"Oh, may I please have a spoon instead
of a fork?" Shizuka called out before he had reached the drawer. He groaned his
response, and walked back over to the table with two plates, one knife, and one
spoon.
He cute both he and Shizuka one piece
each, and started to eat. Seto stopped for a moment to look at Shizuka. 'I
bet she tastes much better than this cake…' He smiled to himself, and ate another
forkful of cake.
"Mm, delicious! Why are you smiling?"
Shizuka said as she swallowed the last of her cake.
"Nothing important." Kaiba said
slowly, he could hardly contain his happiness for any longer. Even hid cold
blue eyes had begun to soften.
"Nothing important? I bet it is
something important for you to be smiling." She giggled. "You should smile more
often, it makes you look a lot cuter!" She blushed and looked down at her
plate. "Oh, I'll put these in the dishwasher!" She jumped up, grabbed both
plates, the utensils, and shoved them carefully into the dishwasher. She turned
it on after a few moments, and returned back to her chair. She sat down.
"You're right, I was thinking about
something very important." He chuckled, and his hopes got higher with her
actions. 'Could she really mean that…?'
"I have been meaning to try something
for a while. But I was never sure if what Mokuba told me was true." She laughed
nervously, and tucked her hair behind her ears. Seto looked at her, completely
puzzled.
"What did he-" He was cut off in the
middle of the sentence by Shizuka pressing her lips against his, and pulling
him into a kiss. He was quick to respond, and put his hands on either side of
her face, deepening their kiss. 'She tastes so much better than I thought…'
When they pulled away, his hands were
still on either side of her face. He kept them there, and stared deep into her
green eyes, trying to read them with all his might. He could see nothing by
happiness in them.
"I – I love you, Seto." Shizuka gasped
and panted for air. She covered his hands with her own, he soft and smooth skin
rubbing against his.
"I love you, too." He said, his cold
blue eyes widening as he felt his heart racing in his chest, and he felt the
warmth of her skin spreading from his hands straight to his face. It was a
completely new feeling. He suddenly felt… complete.
"And I'll love you forever!" Shizuka
pulled his hands off her face, and she threw her arms around his waist, and
buried her face into the crook of his neck.
Several feet away, there was an eye
peeking through the crack of the door. It was Mokuba. He backed up, and closed
the door slowly, closing it with no sound at all. 'My plan worked!' He
grinned as he went back upstairs, and lay down on his bed. 'Now if only I
could have remembered that the cake was supposed to stay in the freezer,
everything would've been perfect for them!'
He closed his eyes with a smile
perfectly visible on his face, while one floor down and one room away, Seto sat
perfectly still, with his new love wrapped safely in his arms, a small smile
forming on his lips. He had found something more important than work, for once,
just like Mokuba. Except this was completely different. This was love.
Shizuka fell asleep in his arms and he listened intently to the quiet sounds
coming from the dishwasher.
