Disclaimer: I do NOT own Yu-Gi-Oh!
Author's Notes: I just had a spark one day while doing an Ishizu image blend! I've decided to use a song in here aswell. I love this song. You know it. It's Everytime By Britney Spears. I love the song lyrics and the video. Yeah, I can get on with Innocence now!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapter Eight: Everytime
Notice me
Take my hand
Why are we
Strangers when
Our love is strong?
Why carry on without me?
Isis took her clothes off, feeling the immediate coldness surround her. It wouldn't matter anyway. She stepped into the bath which was slowing filling up with cold water.
It was so cold she jumped slightly, but took a deep breath and slowly sat down in it. She immediately felt goose bumps form onto her bare skin.
Closing her eyes she leant back and relaxed getting used the water. It was what she deserved. She needed this. She had to feel how cold he was towards her. This was how cold it would be for her if she stayed with him. No matter how many times she felt safe or warm with him, this would happen to her. She would get so cold she couldn't move, so cold that she wouldn't be aware of anything anymore.
She would die like this.
Everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you baby
Isis lost herself, sinking down further into the water. She sighed. Moving made it so much colder so she stayed in one place.
He was always going to be there with her. She saw him in her dreams, she saw him before he knew who she was…she wanted him now though. He wasn't there with her now.
It felt like…she was reaching out. Reaching out for him but he turned his back on her. He didn't need to help her. She needed him. She really did need him. He was slipping further and further away…and it was getting so much colder.
He has no choice though…
I make believe
That you are here
It's the only way
I see clear
What have I done?
You seem to move on easy
Seto seemed to cope fine without her after the last time…but she really couldn't. She needed him no matter what. But why couldn't she have him? Why couldn't she keep the one thing that she needed with her? The one thing…that gave her reason for living?
Opening her eyes, she found herself lying on the ground…beneath her fingertips she felt soft grains of…sand. The desert. She was home…in Egypt. She was alone staring up at the sun, entranced by the bright glow. One day she'd be able to feel warmth like this again. She'd be able to bask in warmth like this.
It got dark…she opened her eyes again.
What have I done? She thought when she watched all the pain she'd been inflicted. No, she wasn't the one suffering…it looked like…he was…she had been the one causing all the pain.
It was me…I…I…did all of…this. I'm tearing him apart…I'm killing him and…what am I doing to him?
And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you baby
The darkness once again poured in on her…and she opened her eyes once again.
He was there with her. Kissing her. She felt herself grow weaker and vulnerable…but it didn't matter when she was with him. He wasn't going to hurt her…because he needed her too.
They were meant to be because she needed him and he needed her. They were destined, they were fated…but then…
Why did it hurt her so much when she was with him?
I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song is my sorry
It was her. She did cause him pain. Her weakness caused him pain. Being so scared of losing him had caused him to hurt more she ever would know.
There were a thousand ways to say sorry but none of them were good enough. Would he ever forgive her for what she'd done to him? He was trying to become someone other that this abusive father and she was just…ignoring him, and throwing everything away.
Please don't leave me…I love you…
At night I pray
That soon your face
Will fade away
She always tried not to think about him. She prayed for it, hoped for it because she couldn't face the pure guilt of it all. Knowing what she'd done to him…forcing him to drink when she'd left him…giving him no other choice…
I don't deserve you, Seto…
And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you baby
Isis closed her eyes, sinking down further into the water. She didn't realize what was going on…she just didn't breathe.
There was a tapping as Seto entered his bathroom, immediately running to the overflowing bathtub, jumping into it.
"Isis!" He yelled, ignoring the coldness of the water.
He lifted her head onto the tub's edge and held her body close to his to stop her from falling back into the freezing cold liquid. He leant his forehead against hers, shouting at her now. "WAKE UP ISIS!! ISIS!"
When there was no response, he lifted her up taking her out of the bath and to his bedroom straight away.
Seto gently placed her onto the bed, continuing to shout at her. He felt her head. She was incredibly cold.
Tears streamed down his cheeks as he called for help. He stared at her as he did, hoping that she'd draw a breath. Just hoping she wasn't dead already.
After setting the phone down he came to her side, kissing her forehead.
"Isis…" he mumbled, rubbing her arm and holding her close to him.
I love you.

But anyways, I actually was able to continue! Yeah! - That was a short chappie and I'll make it up to ya. Well, that was a bit of an unexpected twist. Just to let you know this was straight after the slap. She went to the bathroom after and nearly drowned!! Ahhh!! Will she survive? Or will I be really mean and make her die? Hehe…will she leave Seto? Review please.
