Chapter 18 Bliss

Wow…chapter 18...it's hard to believe I've made it this far. I'd just like to thank everyone who read my story and reviewed. It made me feel really great to know that you like it. Anyway, thanks everyone.

Disclaimer: Geeze, 18 chapters and the lawyers still don't get the fact that I don't own Yu-Gi- Oh! They're about as dense as my Yami.

"Hey, I heard that!"

er…well, let's get on with the story…

Seto

Seto smiled to himself as he was riding home in his limo. Memories from earlier that night still hung with him.

Flashback! (wooh!)

"I love you." Set whispered. Serenity met his eyes, seeking the truth.

"You…do?"
"Yes, Serenity," He said, putting one hand to the side of her beautiful face. Leaning down, he met her lips with his. She put her hand on his cheek as he deepened the kiss, and had to grab onto the railing for support, for it left her weak. As if sensing her unsteadiness, Seto grabbed her around the waist and held her.

She felt warm and safe against him. "I love you, too." she said, closing her eyes. Seto stroked her hair for a minute before she spoke. "But…we can't tell Joey…" She whispered.

"Of course." He whispered back. He pulled away and looked into her stunning eyes. "Perhaps I should leave…someone you know might see us and tell your brother. Then what would we do?" He started to turn away, but Serenity caught him by the sleeve. He turned around. Standing as high as she could go, Serenity kissed him.

If Seto was shocked at her daring move (for most girls he knew would wait for him to kiss them) he couldn't show it. He found himself kissing her back, even more passionately than before. Finally, they broke apart, and Seto looked at the ground.

"I'll, um…see you Saturday then." (well, that was romantic)

"Yeah, see you then" She said. He turned and walked towards the car. When he got in, he stared back at her, even if she didn't know it. He couldn't take his eyes off of her.

End of the Flashback

Seto was still smiling stupidly when they pulled in front of his house. At first, he expected to see Mokuba waiting for him at the door, but then he remembered that he was staying with a friend. He would have to tell him later.

K, I know it was really really short, but I wanted to get this chapter out before I go. So anyway, hope you like it!

See that little button down there? Doesn't it just scream "Press me! Press me!"?
