Christmas Eve Presents

"Ok in keeping with tradition," said Alec, with everyone now in the living room, "We get to open one present tonight then it is off to bed for those of us that are under the age of 20."

The living room had a large tree with out a star upon it still, for Seto had not put it up yet because he wanted to do something special first. Alec stood by the big screen TV that was next to the tree with the large amount of presents under it.

Yugi, Mokuba, Mai, Joey, Seto, Alec, Andy, Katie, and Jenny; was the order of presents and seats in the room. Alec however stood over by the presents, Katie, Andy and Jenny ready to hand them out at the bottom of the tree.

Seto stood up, "Ok and I guess now the time to put the star up, but first I think some one younger then me should do it, so Jenny want to help me out here?" he asked. Jenny got up from her spot and took the star out of Seto's hand, "I guess that means yes?" he said looking at Andy, who nodded yes after spending some of that afternoon teaching his father some of Jenny's signs.

Seto lifted Jenny over his shoulders, "Ok Jenny, put it on the tree," he said putting her close enough to reach of the top of the tree. Jenny put the star on the top of the 7-foot tall tree. Alec smiled at how happy Jenny was she had not seen her daughter smile this much in quiet some time.

Everyone in the room clapped as Jenny finished adjusting the star on the tree. Seto pulled her down and gave her a little kiss on the cheek, something he had not done in over six years, but since it was over due, and she hugged him in return. Alec smiled at the site before her, she was the happiest she had been in a while seeing, Seto and Jenny as they were brought back memories of them being together.

Andy saw his mother's face it told him that she was happy to see Seto take their tradition and switch to the one they had back when Alec and him were married. Yugi looked at them, "Ok, time for the first gift of the night," he said.

Alec nodded, "Andy, Kate and Jenny hand them on one to everyone," she said. The three children handed out one present to everyone, Jenny handed Alec a box that she wrapped herself.

Yugi got a sweeter that was from Tea for she had given it to Alec to give to Yugi for Christmas. "Cool a new sweeter and it looks like the one, yes it is," he said, "I know who got me this, Tea gave it to you Alec didn't she?" he questioned his sister who at first looked at the ceiling.

Alec then nodded catching her brother's face of annoyance, "Yep that is from her," she said finally. Mokuba was next up he got a new PDA from Seto, "Cool," he said. Mai was surprised at her present, "Joey," she said pulling out the silk pajama dress that was a little short.

Joey gave a guilty laugh, as Alec raised her eyebrows at him, she knew that everyone by now figure it out that she and Seto had slept together the night before. Joey opened his present next, he got a new sports hat, "Well this will come in handy if I need to slap some one," he said with a smile. Mai held up the box that the hat was in, "It's from Troy," she said with a glare.

Andy handed Seto his gift to open, "Here Dad, this is for you," he said, "it's from Jenny, Kate," he paused then went on "… me and Mom." Seto removed the red wrapping paper from the medium sized box he opened it.

Inside the box were three journal books, a small plastic blue eyes white dragon figurine, and a plastic covered card case that need something in it. Seto was speechless, as he opened the books inside the box, were filled with writing each one different.

Seto looked at the first book it appeared to been written by a ten year old, Seto looked at Jenny, "this one is from you I take it," he said holding it up. Jenny nodded her head.

Seto looked at the second book it appeared to been write by a girl about 16, Seto figured that was Katie's book, and the last was of course Andy's book that he receive the year Kaiba left.

"I take your giving me back your Christmas present from 6 years ago," asked Seto holding up a familiar looking book that had been hallowed out. Andy nodded, "Well I am giving it to you full of stuff, of course I had to put new pages in that hollowed out book," he said.

Seto glanced inside it, it was full of drawings and poems even a few music notes but then he noticed that there were dates on each page, and then he came to one of the written entries he glanced at them and looked at the last two.

Seto read to himself quietly as everyone was busy talking about the upcoming party tomorrow night,

12-12 (the year scribbled out)

Well here, we are in California about to see my abandoning father, I hate him so much but I do not even know him at all anymore. Why in the world would he drag all of us here? Jenny will not talk even if it appears that Kaiba and Mom are getting along, but no one really knows what will happen on this trip but Jenny thinks she has an idea; I just hope she is right.

12-23

Well, I think things are looking up here in California, Kate and I just saw Dad and Mom head off toward a bedroom at the other end of the mansion. I think things between them are finally working out and I have to say about time too. Kate, Jenny and I have seen them talking together on the balcony over the last few nights and once we caught them kissing but the funny thing was it felt like it was not going to last very much longer. I thought about and decided something I going to talk with Kaiba tomorrow maybe Katie and Jenny were right about this time, it is time to grow up and forgive as they have been telling me in her own way for years now.

Seto looked at Andy, "Thanks Andrew," he said, Katie and Jenny smiled at their brother, for once, the two were accepting one another, and it was long over due. Alec got her present and looked at the box, "Ok, Jenny what did you and Andy gets for me now," she said.

Jenny jumped up and took the box from Alec. Andy looked at Jenny, "Hey that's my present to give to mom, give it back to her," he barked. Jenny shook her head, and then got another present from under the tree; it was like the one she just took away from her mother.

Andy scratched his head, "Ok," he said puzzled, "isn't it the same one?" he asked him self puzzled. Jenny handed Alec the multi colored box and she opened it.

Alec pulled out a long black silk dress with no sleeves with a V shaped neck and slits at the bottom it was different from the other black dresses she owned much to her surprise it matched the one she wore at Seto's 16-birthday party years ago. (Hint, hint)

Alec's jaw dropped, "WOW!" she said. Looking at the dress, Jenny giggled, Andy looked at the wrapping, "Well I wasn't expecting this," he said handing Katie the wrapping paper with the name tag.

Kate eyes open widen at the site of who, the present was from, "Wow, Dad you can pick them," she said. Everyone looked at Seto, he smirked, "Well that dress is kind of special to your mother," he spoke calmly with a rather large smirk on his face.

Alec nodded, "It the same style as when I saw you back when I was still 15," she said. Seto nodded, "you remembered," he said with a smirk. Alec laughed, "Yeah, but I lost that dress years ago when I was on the run but Seto how did you?" she began, but stopped, "Never mind," she said putting the dress back in to the box crossing her arms.

"I do not, even want to know about how you got this dress," she said. Seto laughed, "Come on Alec you were always up for a story, or two," he said.

Alec shook her head, "Not this one Kaiba," she said. Yugi, Joey, Mai, and Mokuba were all interested, "Ok," said Joey, "What the dress mean?" he asked.

Alec shook her head, "It matches the dress I wore on Seto's 16th birthday, when he had to pick me out of a crowd of girls after dancing with each of them. He had a mask on it was kind of romantic but two people had to give him clues about where I was in the group, surprisingly I was number 7 yet he thought it was 6," she snapped glaring at Mokuba.

Mokuba gave a small laugh, "Seto hadn't seen her in almost four years at that point," he said to the confused looking nieces and nephew, "Sara and I had to make sure he found her considering she had different hair color at the time."

Andy and Katie looked at their mother with wide eyes, "What color?" they asked at the same time. Alec laughed, "It has been so many years now I can't remember what color it was," she said.

"Black, like your sister's hair color," Seto spoke up calmly while eyeing Alec. Alec looked at Seto, "I am surprised you remembered at all, Seto," she said.

Andy looked at Kate who was looking at Jenny; Jenny was looking at her parents. "Andy," said Alec, "Your turn to open your present now," she said trying to change the moment. Seto was battling the voice, "You remembered how sweet to bad you're going to lose her when you marry Rachael," it spoke. 'Shut up you voice, I am not listening to you anymore,' Seto thought.

"Oh and what makes you think I am just going to go away, I know last night you had a good time with Alec, in the bed," said the voice. 'I am not listening to you, look, I am past Alec ok, let me be,' he thought back.

Andy looked at Kate, "Want to open yours at the same time?" he asked his twin sister. Katie nodded and took her present; she and Andy opened theirs at the same time. Katie got a new duel disk, and Andy got one two. "Andy, do you know what these are?" asked Kate.

Andy nodded, "Yeah the new DM Disk 500 but," he turned towards Alec who was now sitting next to Seto, "How?" he asked.

Alec smiled, "Well what did you really think your father and I wouldn't get you anything?" she asked. Katie looked at her father, "So, you two got us these, both of you?" she asked puzzled an amazed that her parents did something together for once.

Seto and Alec nodded; Jenny smirked and gave a small giggle. Andy looked at his sister, "Your turn," he said. Jenny looked at the big box that was set right in front of her, Alec and Kate had gotten it for her.

Jenny tore off the wrapping and pulled out a karaoke machine, Jenny smiled at the sight of it but then went to a frown, looking at her mother knowing that the gift was not going to be put to use until Alec and her father were together again.

Alec had known that Jenny some day wanted to sing and had caught her a many times singing in front of the mirror in the bathroom back home with out words. Jenny signed thanks to Katie and Alec.

Alec smiled, "I knew you would like it, you had your eye on it when we went shopping back in Domino," she said. Jenny nodded and opened the box and pulled out the microphone but she then left the room.

Andy laughed, "You know you just wasted your money Mom," he said. Alec shook her head, "When she talks again Andrew she will use all of it, trust me the girl will talk again. I think I am getting a little tired so I think I will go to bed," said Alec getting up.

Seto looked at her, "I guess it been a long day I think I will too," he said. Alec looked at Seto, "You're sleeping in your own room tonight, with out me this time," she smirked and snapped at him.

Andy and Kate looked at their parents, "Come on you two," they said at the same time, "Just kiss and make up." Jenny popped her head back in to the room to see who Kate and Andy were talking about.

Alec glared at her daughter, "Kathleen Kaiba, you know better," she snapped. Katie laughed while Andy spoke "Well you two have to kiss your under mistletoe," he said pointing above them.

Alec and Seto looked up and saw Jenny on a ladder holding mistletoe over their heads with a toy-finishing rod and letting out little giggles.

Seto laughed, "Can't break tradition," he said moving in to kiss Alec, but Alec moved out of the way. "Maybe some traditions should be broken, like the one you did of keeping a vow to your family," she snapped, and walked out the door.

Jenny on the ladder snapped her fingers then placing her hand under her chin as she leaned on the ladder, Andy crossed his arms and looked at the ground, and Kate was looking at her father with great concern. Seto saw his children's faces and ran after Alec who was now half way up the stairs.

Yugi, Mai, Joey, Melissa, and Mokuba followed Kaiba and the soon the kids followed them they stuck their heads out the door as they all watch the two from a distance. Alec had walked out to the balcony she was looking at the black colored sky, the snow clouds were moving in.

Alec stood in her regular clothes in the cold air as she felt the snow begin to cool her down. Seto took a jacket with him and placed it on Alec's shoulders, "You want to talk?" he asked.

Alec nodded, "I am sorry I shouldn't have said that in there," she said sounding sad. Seto sat on the railing of the balcony, "It's not your fault, I guess I should have waited to pull that until tomorrow night," he said.

Alec looked at him, "You told Jenny to do that didn't you," she accused Seto. Kaiba nodded his head, "Yes I did, Andy and Kate were to point it out to you," he said.

Alec shook her head, "Seto," she said then paused as if trying to find the words, "There is nothing for us now, you know that. I said it to your fiancée this afternoon, you and I are finished, and our fairy tale is over, you don't want me anymore so be it. You wanted someone else to hold and care for not some one whom you share a past with, well you got Rachael, so why do you still want me at times?" she asked with her voice sounding horse from the emotions she was holding back. "Why in the world did you even want me to come here?" Alec asked in anger now.

Seto took a deep breath, "Because I wanted to see something," he answered in a quiet tone. Alec looked at him, "You want to find out if you still love me is that it, or is it the other way around you wanted to see if I still loved you. To tell you the truth Seto, deep down I will always care about you, but love you, that is something that died a long time ago," she said.

Seto walked up to Alec taking her hand in his, "Why do you fight me then?" he asked.

Alec closed her eyes, "Because I have to fight that is how I survive, that is how I been living Seto. Everyday I have been fighting to live every moment for my self and my children. I see my kids with out a father, and when I see you, I know they will never get you back. I see myself slipping away from who I was or I am that happened every second of everyday. I am fighter now Seto, I can't love you anymore that is the same as giving up to me and in to dying," she said the anger pulsing in her voice now.

Seto stood up, "Then there isn't more to discuss out here in the cold then is it?" he asked. Alec nodded, "you got your answers, now let me live without love from now on, Seto," she said.

Seto nodded, "As you wish it, Alec, just remember I am here if you …" "I don't need you Kaiba," she said interrupting him in a cold tone. Seto nodded at went back inside the mansion. Alec stood in the cold, "I am sorry, Seto, and everyone else but there is no love for me anymore, at least not with out you Seto," she said quietly to herself and walked back inside the mansion and up the stairs to her room.

Meanwhile inside the living room, Jenny sat with the karaoke machine one and everyone listening in on it. "Well," said Joey, "That didn't go well for Kaiba," he said.

Everyone nodded, "Nice going Sis," said Andy patting Jenny on the back. Jenny had the saddest look in her eyes as if she had just lost all hope that she would never talk again.

Kate saw this as she sat next to Mokuba and moved to her sister, "I am sorry, Jenny," she said in a quiet voice hugging her sister, who started to cry in her arms. Yugi shook his head, "Hey, you three can't give up on them, maybe they need more time," he said trying to raise his nephew and nieces sprits however was failing.

Andy stood up and walked over to one of the windows and looked at the snow that started to fall, "No, Yugi," he said coldly, "It's over, Mom has made her choice, and as her children, we need to honor that, we did all we could, to make them see," Andy then leaned more on the window as he spoke.

Mokuba and Yugi looked at their nephew, "Andy," said Mokuba in shock that he gave up so easily. Andy leaned on the window with his arms holding his head from it, "its over," he said as he began to cry into his arm that was against the window, quietly.

Kate rocked Jenny while she cried, in her older sister's arms. Mai and Joey looked at the small broken family, "Come on you three straighten up," snapped Mai, "Your Kaiba's kids after all there is giving up isn't in your veins," she said.

"Yes it is Mai," said a voice in the doorway, "however it's up to Alec." Everyone turned to see whom it was, "it's in my veins, to never give up however Alec is the one with the loss hope," said Seto.

Andy, Katie, and Jenny turned to look at their father, he could see that two of them had been crying, "I know because Alec gave up on me six years ago, and at the same time I gave up on myself," he said taking a seat on one of the couches.

Mai shook her head, "Come on Kaiba. You didn't give up when Yugi beat you ever time you two dueled, you only quit because you retired," said Mai.

Seto shook his head, "No, Mai, it was for Alec, she wanted a baby really badly and it would have killed her, I wasn't about to let myself waste time with Duel Monsters when Alec was more important then that," he said.

Andy walked over to Kate and Jenny looking at his father, "So you still do love her," he said with his deep voice sounding a little like his father. Seto shook his head, "No, Andy, I don't, at least not anymore, things have changed, I am not the same Kaiba she married all those years ago. I don't think I ever will be the same again, I am sorry, that you kids had to get caught in the middle of this," he spoke in a salmon tone.

Katie shook her head, "That can't be true, Dad," she said. Seto looked at his two daughters, "Kate, I am sorry but your mother has made her choice she doesn't want me back, and then I am not going to fight her on it," he said.

Jenny sat up, "Yes she does she just won't say it," said the little 10 year old, speaking her first words in over six years, "Momma loves you she just doesn't want to admit it right now but she will some day but then it will be to late," she snapped.

"Jenny," said Andy, shocked that his youngest sister started talking. "Andy! Dad has the right to know, Mom is going to die unless you two get back together soon, we are all going to lose both of you," she said nearly in tears.

"Jenny, what are you talking about?" asked Yugi. Jenny looked at her uncle, "Yugi, she going to kill her self, but before she jumps to her death Dad is going to try and stop her but she says it then jumps in to the pit," she said near hysterics now.

Katie took Jenny and sat her down, "Jenny! Calm down, that won't happen to Mom, Andy and I won't let it," she said rocking her back and forth.

Andy shook his head, "We can't stop her, Kate," he said. Katie looked up at her brother, "Andy!" she said quietly. "Everything Jenny says is true, Mom will die before she will tell Dad anything about how much she loves him," he said, "I've seen it, too, like Jenny."

Seto looked at all three of his kids, "So, Kist was right all along, about me and Alec, we were seers and we pasted it on to you two," he said. The three kids looked at their father, Yugi, Mokuba and Joey looked at Seto. "What did Kist say?" asked Joey.

Seto looked at them, "Remember when we were sent back 5000 years in to the past, Kist told me that Alec's and my children could sometimes see the future," he said.

Yugi nodded, "Oh yeah, I remember when that happened, but Alec was wrong you two didn't die," he said. Seto shook his head, "We almost didn't make it, Yugi, Alec lost another baby because of that remember, and I was stupid to think I could stop Pharaoh Set from killing her when really he was stabbing me, but he did hit Alec too."

Andy shut his eyes, "I remember when I sent that to Mom, and you for the first time," he said in a seldom tone. Kate and Jenny looked up at their brother in confusion. Seto looked at Andy, if Andy's hair was not dyed black and was allowed to be its natural blue, he would match the little boy that was sitting next to him in the vision he and Alec got while they were in Egypt.

"Andy how can remember something like that you weren't even born yet, nor conceived," said Joey.

"I wasn't even expected to be born," said Andy, looking at everyone. Melissa nodded, "You survived some how?" she said. Andy nodded, "I just remember things that I don't even remember doing, yet I know that it's true, like a memory but it comes as a dream," he said.

Melissa nodded, "you got what I had for a while," she said with a smirk on her face remembering her powers at two however, they were gone now with the passing of her father.

Seto looked at Melissa, "I was 2 when Alec, Seto, Yugi, Joey, and my Mom, got sucked into the vortex taking all of us back to 5000 years ago, but I still sometimes remember what it was like then, but some how it just comes to me in my dreams only."

"Andy, here is my question, if you were around in Mom's womb when she was in Egypt, why then are you and I twins?" asked Kate.

Andy shook his head, "I don't know, Mom said she knew once or at least thought about why, but never told me," he said. Seto nodded, "I think I know why, when we were in Egypt she and were stabbed by the a sword and saved by the millennium sword that had the ability to heal, maybe that is how it stopped, Andy from growing and then when Alec had Kate they found Andy ready to go, in her ribs," he said.

Everyone looked at Seto it seemed they all thought him crazy but to Yugi this made some sense; he had the millennium puzzle at the time, not anymore since he and Atem had there ceremonial duel to send him to the after life. He and everyone were stuck in Egypt for a few months but returned good, as new; at least they thought they did.

"Well that explains it, I guess," said Kate, "if you two didn't go to Egypt then I would never have my little brother here," putting her arm on Andy's shoulders. "Lets not put any enfaces on little please, it took 6 hour for me to be born," said Andy.

Seto laughed, "And it was the must worried you two ever caused me to do," he said. Kate and Andy looked at their dad, "We did?" they asked. Jenny giggled, "Yep, more worried then when I was born I bet, right?" she asked.

Everyone looked at Jenny, it had only taken two hours for her to be born and everyone was surprised how small and fragile, she was but she did come a few weeks early not to mention everyone was still getting used to her talking now.

Seto shook his head, "Any way, Alec has made it pretty clear she doesn't want me anymore, or is it all an act?" he asked them. Jenny looked at her father, "An act, she still trying to be tough when she is still a chicken about something," she said.

Seto nodded, "Well it's late, and I think we all need some sleep because tomorrow night, we will be lucky if we even get to bed, at a good hour" said Seto and everyone agreed.

"Oh and one more thing, Jenny, don't leave your wireless karaoke microphone lying around," said Seto holding out the microphone to her. Jenny smiled and took the microphone from Seto, "thanks Dad," she said and ran out the door.

"So you knew that we were listening?" asked Mokuba before heading out the door. Seto nodded, "Yep," he said.

Everyone went to bed while Seto sat on the couch in the living room contemplating his thoughts. Once everyone else went to bed Alec came out of her room and headed downstairs to the living room carrying some presents to put under the tree.

The living room was dark but Alec could see a path to the tree, she walked over to and set the gifts down under it. Suddenly the lights on the tree turned on, "Thought it was you," said a voice.

Alec looked up, "Seto, what are you still doing up?" she snapped seeing him standing on the other side of the tree. Seto laughed and step out from behind the tree to get a better look at Alec, "I was about to ask you the same question," he replied.

Alec finished arranging the presents she had brought down, "Finished, all the present are now under the tree," she said. Seto looked at her, "Why are you doing that?" he asked. Alec smiled, "These are supposed to be the gifts Santa brings for the kiddies," she laughed.

Seto nodded, "You know I still don't believe in that Christmas miracle stuff, however I think our kids are holding out for one because Jenny talked while you were up stairs," he said. Alec's head shoot up, "WHAT!" she said.

Seto nodded, "Yep Jenny spoke and it wasn't good, at least for you it wasn't," he said. Alec stood up and walked over to one of the couches, "You mean the whole thing were I throw myself over a pit of lava dream," she asked.

Seto nodded, "From what she said, yes it was that one; her face said it all when I looked at her. In a way it kind of reminded me of you," he said, looking at Alec, "The way you looked when I was well, losing it," he said.

Alec laughed, "You never were losing it, Seto," she said. Seto nodded, "I was, when you showed up in my home office that one day when Joey put ice down my back," he said.

Alec laughed she remember the incident, "That was funny," she said "you looked like a red apple you were so mad at him," she laughed. Seto sat down at the other end of the large couch, "Alec, you once asked me where we went wrong and I gave you an answer that was half hearted at the time, but I am going to ask you that question were did we go wrong?" he asked.

Alec sighed, "When you left, Seto," she answered. Seto nodded, "That is the effect what caused me to leave in the first place?" he asked. Alec leaned back on the couch, "I don't know, maybe you were running away from me or the fact you got caught cheating on me," she said glaring at him, "But I did say I put that behind me a long time ago," she added.

Seto looked at her, "How long ago?" he asked worried about the answer being moments ago. Alec sighed, "The minute you admitted you did," she answered calmly. Seto nodded, "that would have been nice to know back then," he said putting his hand on his forehead.

Alec smiled at Seto, "I guess I better get to bed, you have a party to host and me well …" she paused as Seto moved closer to her. "What are you doing?" she asked as Seto took the spot next to her, "Trying to see something," he said looking at Alec's eyes as they avoided him.

Alec looked at him, "What?" she said as Seto looked into her eyes. Seto did not want to look back but could not help it, Alec was feeling her self-fall into the mush moment, half of her wanted to kiss him right there on the couch, but the other was yelling move away from him.

Alec looked at Seto, "What are you looking for in my eyes?" she asked. Seto moved some of Alec's hair from the side of her face and placed it behind her ears, "I don't know because you won't let me see," he said.

Alec lowered her eyes brows "What, Seto, see WHAT?" she asked in a snappy tone. Alec felt Seto move closer to her as she was trying to avoid eye contact with his blue eyes, but Alec could not fight it anymore they lock on Seto's eyes, and he on to hers eyes.

Seto then leaned back on the couch away from Alec, she looked at him "Find it?" she asked once he moved away. Seto nodded, "Yep, you are such a bad lair," he said. Alec looked at him glaring, "What do you mean," she said. Seto smirked, "You still love me," he said with a small laugh. Alec shook her head, "No I don't," she said.

Seto nodded, "oh yes you do, you almost kissed me just now if you were went holding back so much I wouldn't been so easily seen, your eyes gave it away not to mention you were nearly in a panic state," he said.

Alec looked at the ground, "You were the only person who could tell that about me, by just looking at my eyes," she said. Seto touched Alec's chin, "Alec, why are you fighting me so much, you said it yourself lets put the past behind us," he said.

Alec looked up with Seto's hand on her chin, "I did, you just keep for getting the present mixed up with your past, Seto, your engaged to Rachael and I …" Alec was interrupted by Seto as he moved in and gently kissed her on the lips.

Alec closed her eyes, as she kissed him back; the two were in passionate bliss all of a sudden. Alec opened her eyes and saw that she and Seto were making out on the couch, "Seto," she said as he moved away from him quickly.

"Sorry," he said moving back a little as well to give Alec her space. Alec shook her head, "We better be careful or we'll end up like we did last night, and I know you don't want to go through that," she said. Seto nodded, "Right, umm, see you in the morning," he said getting up from the couch.

Alec watched him leave the living room from over the couch; she just did not know what to do. "Alec you dummy," she said to herself hitting her palm against her forehead. Alec sighed, "this is your entire fault," she said to herself, "why can't I say that too him?" she whispered.

"Maybe it's because he was right," said a voice in Alec's mind. Alec opened her eyes, "Kisara, wondering when you would show up again," she said. Kisara stood in Alec's mind as if she was standing in the living room, "I see you're denying your self again," she said. Alec shook her head, "No, I am telling myself the truth, Seto is in love with someone else," she argued.

Kisara shook her head, "No he isn't, if he was why does he kiss you some many times, how come he kissed you just now?" Alec shook her head, "I don't need you in my head go away, Kisara," she said.

Alec opened her eyes and got up for the couch, she walked out into the main hall, she saw Seto half way up the stairs, "Seto," she said quietly as she watched from the door of the living room.

Seto saw her at the bottom of the stairs, "Alec," he whispered. Alec ran to the stairs but slowed down when she got to the fork where Seto stood, "Rest well, Seto," she said in a clam tone. "Sweet dreams, Alec," Seto said then continued walking up the stairs and closed the door to his room.
