A/N: Thank you all who reviewed! I am glad you liked it. I couldn't have written this without my friend's help. Thank you again, Caitlin! I'm sorry, but it took me a little longer to get this up. I would have had this up Sunday, but at the time I felt like a train wreck! I had a real bad sinus headache that would not go away! Thank God that He made it tolerable enough for me to sleep it off! Now, on with the fic!
Chapter 2
At the Obelisk Blue dorm…
Alexis was sitting at her desk in her room studying when she heard a tapping on her window. It's probably just the wind, she thought trying to concentrate on her work. For a second it stopped, and then it started again. The tapping stopped and started several more times before the pretty blonde looked up to see… Jaden standing at the door to the balcony!
Alexis rushed over to the door to unlock the door. After she let Jaden in she tried to keep her voice as calm as she interrogated her friend. "What are you doing here? Are you trying to get yourself expelled! You know that boys aren't allowed in the girls' dorm!"
"Right now that doesn't matter, Alexis. All that matters right now is you."
Alexis couldn't believe she was hearing. She looked Jaden straight in the eye to make sure that he was telling the truth. "You're kidding…"
Jaden's eyes radiated with a warmth and concern for her that told her that he was drop-dead serious! "No, Alexis. I'm not kidding."
"Alright, who are you and what have you done with Jaden?"
Her brown-eyed visitor's intensified gaze pierced her unbelief that he was being serious. "Alexis, I understand a little better about why you were so mad at me after the duel with Harrington the other day. Syrus explained what 'fiancé' means."
Alexis turned away from Jaden so he couldn't see her eyes as she sadly asked, "What did you think it meant, Jaden?"
The brown-haired Slifer mentally winced. I definitely saw that one coming! "I knew that it had meant something special. I didn't know how special."
So he had realized that had meant something special! Alexis turned back to face Jaden as she drew closer to him. She was really afraid to ask him anything else, but there was one thing she had to know. "Jaden, what are your true feelings for me?"
Jaden's face went red as he struggled to find the right words, "I'm not sure what it is that I feel for you right now, Alexis, but I do know that you're very special to me. You are caring, smart, beautiful, and … I would never want to hurt you…"
Alexis blushed as she continued to question him, "You know that Harrington wanted to win my heart. Did you really want to have a special place in my heart?"
"I…," Jaden paused to think about it. That's why accepted the challenge, isn't it? I wanted to mean something to Alexis more than just a …
"I do…"
The beautiful blonde closed the distance between them as she wrapped her arms around him. Jaden hadn't expected this, but he returned the embrace as he basked in the feel of his arms around her, the scent of her hair,… He didn't want to ever let go! There's only one thing that could make this moment even sweeter!
As if she had read his mind, Alexis raised her head as rose up on her tip-toes and claimed Jaden's lips with hers. When they parted, Alexis quietly whispered, "I love you, Jaden…"
The Slifer Red dorm's best duelist felt like he had won a duel against the King of Games himself! He felt like could take on the world!
"I love you, Alexis," he said as he leaned in for another kiss.
This kiss lasted a little longer than the last one, but there was a knock on Alexis's door that cut it short. "Alexis, we have something to tell you! Open up," exclaimed Alexis's friends on the other side of the closed portal.
Alexis and Jaden parted as Alexis cried out in reply, "Um… I'll be right there!"
Jaden took that as his cue to leave, but before he climbed down the tree that was right outside he claimed one more kiss from Alexis. "I'll see you tomorrow then, Lex," the Slifer grinned.
"It's a date!"
Jaden climbed down the tree quickly while Alexis watched to make sure he was a good enough distance away before she let Mindy and Jasmine in. When she finally opened the door her two best friends were very frustrated with her, but Alexis didn't care at the moment. The blonde Obelisk knew that Jaden loved her, and at the moment nothing else mattered.
