A Song for Seto

Chapter 6: Understanding
I've noticed that Seto isn't exactly as cold as he should be but people change :P
~~
"Do you really think of me as your friend Seto?" Kumiko asked
Seto looked up from the phone to the girl at his door. "My most respected one."
She sat down in a chair across from Seto, "And here I was starting to think you liked me." Then she smiled, "Thank you Seto for not telling my father where I was, and I'm sorry it probably cost Kaiba Corporation that business with my daddy."
"It's not your fault," he told her "Besides, I think finding someone like you to be my friend is worth more then some little business."
"I guess I can't not be your friend now eh? Since you've done so much for me." She teased "Why don't you come over for a second, I got something for that unsightly bruise on your face."
"As long as it's not some type of makeup" Kumiko simply laughed at this statement
~~
"You know I remember when I first met you. You seemed like you were some jackass who hated the world and all who lived in it. Now that I've gotten to know you, you're so much more. You're a jackass with heart deep down." She told him grinning as she sat down to apply the herbal medecine. "This is an old family medication hold still."
Seto looked at her with a smirk, "Should I be honoured?" then hissed as she started to rub the cotton ball on his jaw "Ow!"
"I told you to hold still."
"I guess my "stay away from me" look is quite affective. Do you know why I have to use it?" she shook her head, "It's really just as it is, to keep people away. I don't like people who approach me because I'm rich; I've seen so many of them. I need to protect my brother and myself, I'm afraid to lose all that I've accomplished. Ow! Do you have to rub so hard?"
"But not everybody is like that and yes I do."
"I know, but I don't want to take that risk." He said wincing again
"Then why did you let me get to know the real you?"
"I don't really know. When I first met you, I had already thought of you as someone different. You're very blunt and honest. You don't cover your emotions with some fake pathetic mask that makes you look happy when you're obviously bleeding from the heart and I admire that. My stepfather Gozaburo never let me show any emotions, because of that I also envied you. You also had the guts to challenge me, which I had at first thought to be very stupid of you but you succeed for that I respected you. You told me that you although through so many things preventing you from attaining your dream you were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice, for that I saw you as a true human being that I could trust." By then the cotton ball laid on the table forgotten next to a on the verge of crying Kumiko
"Thank you Seto that meant a lot to me." She told him giving him an intimate hug
Seto hadn't been hugged by anyone besides his brother, so for a while he didn't know exactly what to do. Then he stiffly put his arms around Kumiko and hugged her back. Kumiko inhaled Seto's scent, "You smell like fresh laundry"
Seto backed up, "What?"
"Your jacket smells like it was just cleaned. I think it's the one with the funny looking teddy bear on the logo. It suits you"
He stared at her for two minutes before he cracked up and collapsed on the sofa laughing. "You're probably the only one who's ever dared to tell me that. However I suppose they don't have such a keen sense of smell like you eh?"
"Oh you're in so much trouble mister," she told him as she lunged at him to find a ticklish spot. She found out Seto Kaiba was very ticklish around the stomach area and used this piece of information mercilessly.
"Ok ok you win. I surrender" laughing in between words
"In a battle between women and men, the women always win." She told him smugly
"Bah! It's not my fault I'm ticklish and you're not" he pouted
"Want a rematch?"
"No thanks!" he started inching away, and ran for the nearest lockable room when Kumiko started the chase
~~
"How on earth did I let you convince me to go to these places?" Seto groaned as Kumiko dragged him into the visiting amusment park
"C'mon Seto you haven't been out of that dark office you call your room for ages now."
"But I like the dark"
"What are you some kind of Vampire? You really need to absorb the nutrients from the sunlight. It's good for you."
"I thought I told you take business night courses not science"
"I am taking both. Science is a popular course nowadays you can't imagine, I didn't want to miss out."
Seto simply sighed as she dragged him towards the nearest ride, "The Twisted Twister". Before Seto Kaiba was the most twisted looking rollar coaster he had ever laid eyes on in his entire life. "You're kidding"
"What? Don't tell me you're chicken."
"I am not chicken." He shouted, "I just realized how much I valued my life." He muttered quietly to himself
Kumiko rolled her eyes "C'mon, you need to learn to have some fun"
"You mean risk killing myself is fun?" he exclaimed right before the bar was lowered and the ride started.
~~
Kumiko jumped off the ride more alive then ever, huge smile and all. Seto however looked more like he had lost his lunch halfway through the ride. "Wasn't that fun? Let's go again!"
Seto grabbed Kumiko's arm, "Ok I give up, can we not go? I think I'm going to be sick." Then ran for the nearest restroom
Kumiko shook her head
~~
By the end of the day, Seto had gotten color back into his cheeks and had won Kumiko the very large teddy bear that got in the way of Kumiko seeing where she was going. It gave him the excuse to finally leave after Kumiko had forced him onto a few more rides insisting on training his stomach. "Well we can't go on rides with that thing."
Kumiko sighed, "I suppose you're right."
"I don't understand why you wanted this bear specifically. It took forever to throw enough rings and stuff to get it."
"It reminded me of you."
Seto stopped to look at her. Kumiko stopped, "Why did you stop walking?"
"I still don't see how the bear reminds you of me."
Kumiko laughed out loud, "That's for me to know and you to find out" she laughed inside at the image of Seto's reaction if she had told him it was because of the fabric softener his housekeeper used on his jacket.
When they got to the car Seto had to take down the top before Kumiko could fit her bear inside. It was quite a sight to see two teenagers trying to stick a huge stuffed bear into a small foreign car.
~~
"I got a call from Mr. Lafille. He's still interested in traning me." Kumiko told Seto over coffee
"Really? That's fantastic!!" he exclaimed, happy for his friend
"Yea I see this is a fabulous opportunity for me to continue my dream. And I owe it all to you Seto Kaiba." She smiled, "Thank you Seto"
"You don't have to thank me for anything Kumi. You only need to thank your own persistence and your own skill."
"Ok" she laughed "but thank you for your support in other things so that I was able to fully focus on my dreams. You know if I didn't know you well I would have made you my boyfriend."
"And here all this time I thought you cared. I thought I was special." He said pretending to be hurt by putting his hand over his heart.
"You are special Seto. Even when I was in Paris I never had a friend like you who knew me so well and that I could get to know. We used to be those friends who had a common interest and would chat only about that. But when I'm with it's like I can talk just about anything, from today's weather to my most deepest emotions."
"Since my parents died in the car crash the only person I've confided in was Mokuba. I grew up learning that it was wrong to share feelings with anyone, and that I couldn't trust anyone but myself. Through my training, I actually started believe that all my stepfather's teachings were right but then I met you. Someone different and I knew Gozaburo was wrong."
"I guess we're both helped each other in some way eh?" Kumiko reached into her bag and took out a pair of rings "I bought these when I was a kid, I always thought one day I'd have a very best friend one that I could confide in everything and I have. Although back then I would've thought you were a girl."
They both laughed. Kumiko slipped one of them rings onto one of the two chains and handed one to Seto. "Here I want you to have this one"
Seto took the ring from her and hung the chain around this neck. It was slightly shorter then the locket Seto had from Mokuba. "Hmm..I seem to be getting more and more stuff around my neck."
As Kumiko held the door open for Seto that evening, it seemed different then their usual goodbye. "Goodnight" he said. It was like something didn't feel quite right. Then Kumiko got an idea. She walked up to Seto, leaned onto her tippytoes and gave him a small kiss on the lips "Goodnight Seto" she smiled
