'Please come back!' She prayed.
His eyes dimmed and became those warm eyes, those warm Sky blue eyes, the eyes Ali fell for, the Seto she fell for.
"What's another topic?" He asked calmly
'Thank you' She thought to herself.
"Is that your other side?" She asked him softly.
The side that scared her that she wanted to run away from. Had just left, was that his other side. Was that just a phase he goes through?
"What are you talking about?" He asked her, not getting it.
"You- Your scary side? Was that it?" She asked with a gentle voice still a bit afraid of Seto.
"No, that's me being pissed" He told her; a tear ran down her cheek.
"Did? Did I make that come out?" She asked softly.
"Why are you crying?" he asked, feeling a bit confused.
"That you, I mean." She looked at that ground, "I'm sorry. It ju- just scared me," Ali sobbed out. Holding back the tears that were developing in her eyes.
"The- the other Seto. The scary one. I'm- I don't like him" Ali shook her head.
"I'm always scary, it's nothing new" Kaiba said simply, not making a big deal about it.
Ali shook her head, "Not to me, not like that" She whispered
"I don't know what you've been seeing but I'm always like this" Seto Said looking at Ali intently.
"Why? Why are you like this is? This what you like doing? Do you like being like that, to people, you like?" Ali asked softly, still sniffing.
"Why are you asking me this?" Seto asked.
"Why aren't you answering!" Ali was nearly to the point of shouting, but the tears escaping her eyes made it hard to talk when all she could do was sob.
"Because I don't want to answer," he said through gritted teeth
"Because-" Ali started to sob uncontrollably, "Because you know it's true"
"And why do you push me to tell you things"
"Why do you push me to stop?" She asked.
"BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO ANSWER," he shouted
" Or because you know I'll walk out the door when you do" Ali said coldly. She was at the point of yelling, but she was trying to contain herself, but she couldn't stop the tears, they kept coming, she didn't know why, was it because he yelled at her? Or was it because she already knew all of his answers?
He starred at her with shock, not wanting to believe that she actually said what she said.
"I- I want to believe that you'll say no to my question, but I know, that all my questions to you, will just end up with a yes" Ali said when she looked away. She shifted in her place, scared to say anything else, but she has to, "I want- to believe that your someone I can be with, but, but your not. I also want to believe that you don't yell at me, like you do. But it hurts whenever I try, because I know I'm just hiding the truth" Aliana stuttered out.
"Geez women, your making it sound like we've been together for years or something"
Ali's eyes shot open, but then she looked at the ground again, "I'm trying to say, that- that I don't want to be with you"
"Well then why didn't you just say that" After Seto said that, more tears fell from Aliana's eyes, she wasn't facing him, and so he didn't notice. Part of her wanted to find a guy that would treat her right, but the other part, wanted to stay with Mr. Seto. Because he made her feel different, in a good way. She felt that he would love her. Even though she's not perfect.
"Because- Because, I do- don't know if, if, I mean it" Ali tried not to make it obvious that she had started crying again, but her words were all stuttering, and she couldn't help but sob.
Kaiba let out a loud sigh.
"Look" he turned around so that she couldn't see how hard it was for him to say this. "Don't, start bombarding me with questions. If you really want to go out with me, then I suggest you give me some space and time as well. If I want to tell you something personal, I'll tell you but until then, I advise that you don't push it"
Ali nodded, not daring to say anything to that, she was to stunned by his reply, did this mean that he still wanted to be with her? After everything she said, she asked, was he serious.
'This guy must be desperate as well' She thought to herself, she wiped her tears away while she turned around, she looked at his turned away body and smiled. She walked up to him and leant her head down and placed it on his back. She felt his body stiffen as she lent on him.
She put her arms around him while keeping her head on his back, "But you won't get mad if I touch you will you" She whispered to him
"It depends on what you're trying to do," He whispered back.
"Well, I'm just hugging you from behind, for now" She said in a sexy voice.
"My god, you changed your mood again. That's like three moods in the past 15 minutes" He sounded surprised, but intrigued.
She grunted releasing him, "It was a joke, gah."She spun around and walked in a circle, "Could you not hear my sarcasm, and anyway, if I kept my sad mood, then I would not have any fun with you"
She turned around to have her gaze fall on Seto, who had turned towards her, she didn't even notice that her face was burning up, his while body was better than usual, but Aliana didn't notice, well until now. His cold eyes were now like a calming ocean, while his hair was blowing from the wind coming in from the open window.
"Damn" She muttered under her breath.
"What?" he asked
"Kazam" Aliana said quickly, making up some random word.
"Ok" Seto rolled his eyes.
"Let's get off this subject, How come your the head of Kaiba Corp. isn't that boring, like I know it's a really successful company, but don't you get lonely all the what up the top?" Ali asked him.
"It's kind of hard to get bored and lonely when there's so much to do" Seto pointed out, making Ali seem stupid.
"Why did you decide to take over the company, I heard it was when you were like, a little boy" Ali told Seto.
"If it meant giving Mokuba and I a good life then it was my only option" Seto told Aliana
Aliana had a great Childhood, and when her parents told her it was time to grow up, Ali was gob smacked, she didn't want to be an adult, she wished she could stay a child forever, or longer than what she had.
"So you gave up your childhood!" Ali practically shouted
"Don't make it sound so horrible" Seto stepped forward. Making Ali go bright red, she didn't mean to shout; she just doesn't understand why anyone would choose to be an adult over being a child.
"I-I, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to shout. Or say it like that" Ali stuttered out.
"It's fine" Seto said, with a slight smile on his face.
"You see, when I was 13, when I turned into a teenager, my parents told me it was time I became an adult, that I stopped being childish, I'd wish anything to have those good times back, and it just seems just that you would give it up, but you probably had a good reason" Ali said with a smile on her face, like usual, "But- but, let's get off this subject now, it's just bringing up bad memories, for both of us"
Aliana's life was everything, she had so much fun being a child, but her 13th birthday, she was told she could not be a child anymore, she had to live up to the Mitsuraki name. To be an adult, to be a woman, someone people will know, someone a person could love. By Ali turns 20. She has to already be married, but before that happens, her father has to say the Ok to him.
Ali sighed and shifted in her place. Putting all her weight on her right leg. She looked at Seto and smiled. Just his presence made her feel better about everything, he gave up his childhood, and he's fine. He owns a company.
"I-I don't know if I could have survived being an orphan," Aliana mumbled out, trying not to make it sound mean, or rude.
"You would never be able to know unless you've been put into that situation," he told her.
"Oh, yeah, I knew that. But being with your brother must of made it a lot better" Ali said putting her smile back on her face.
"In terms of staying strong it did" Seto said to her, she was intrigued by this, for a man who was so cold hearted, he sure cares about his brother. And other people. Just maybe not to their faces.
Ali shifted in her place again, this conversation was going no where, but the dumpster, "You know how you said you wanted to go out with me, well. I mean. " Ali looked away for a moment, but looked back at him, "And I wanted to go out with you as well, well I mean. Uh. Does that mean. Well. We're going out, I mean it doesn't have to" Ali stuttered out, " I can live with that bro" Ali punched his shoulder lightly and shook her hand, seeing it had hurt her, "Brother? Bro man, eh. I should just keep to Seto," She said making a faint blush line run over her cheeks.
"You should and just to let you know, I have no idea what you were trying to say just then" Seto said casually, 'WWHHAAATTT!' Aliana's mind shouted.
Aliana fell on the ground, literally. She sat upright with her legs crossed, "What? But, but. Now I have to say it again. Uh. Well." Ali turned around on the ground, so her back was to him, "What I am trying to say is, if we both like each other and both want to go out. I, well. Does it mean we're going out now? I mean. Yeah" Ali said trying to maintain her posture if he says no.
"It makes sense doesn't it? I don't see any reason not to, plus I have to give you credit to work up the courage to say that" Seto said sternly
Ali sighed in relief. She smiled and mumbled out, "Thank god", "Oh I meant, uh. Thank you. Now, because I am totally embarrassed for saying that, and just telling you I'm embarrassed, I'm going to roll up in a ball and go into my quiet place" Ali said to him lying on the ground and rolling up in a ball.
"I would comfort you but I get the feeling that all that would do would embarrass you more" Seto said looked at the dark haired girl.
"Yeah, most likely, but I'm not sure I can get embarrassed anymore, I think I've hit the peak" Ali rolled so she was facing Seto, but she was still curled in a ball.
"I think it could, you could get your dress caught on something and have it rip. Thus leaving you behind totally exposed," He told Aliana whose eyes widened.
Ali's face went bright red, "Yeah, that could happen", She looked at him and screamed, "Now I'm thinking of all the ways I could embarrass myself in front of you, thanks a lot" She huffed.
"Your welcome" Seto smirked at her, she glared at him.
"If looks could kill," She growled, "If I had something hard, I'd throw it at you," She remembered she had a remote in her purse, "Oh wait, I do!" She chirped, she took it out and threw it at him, but unfortunately, her being a bad shot, it went like about 2metres away from him, her face went blank and her cheeks went cherry coloured, "My bad"
"Why do you have a remote in your purse?" he asked,
Ali's eyes widened, "Uh, my cat, she watches to much TV, so I took the remote off her" Ali explained.
"Your cat watches TV?" He asked, a bit freaked out.
"Yes, she's so smart" Ali chirped.
"You have a smart cat? Hoow" he paused for a bit, as if he was trying to find the right words to use. "...odd"
"It's not that odd, but that might be because I've been living with her most of my life. So yeah" Ali told him, a bit embarrassed about the whole thing.
Ali stood up and walked over to Seto, "Come one, let's do something fun" She chirped at him.
"Um, ok. Like what?" Seto asked
"Something illegal" Aliana's eyes twinkled deviously.
"Yeah right. You couldn't even walk out of the store with a piece of food that was free without feeling guilty," Seto pointed out
"Oh, what makes you say that" Ali said a bit offended
"You don't seem like the girl who could do anything against the law," He told her.
"What are you thinking of?" Seto asked Ali.
"You'll have to come and see" She told him with a grin," Come" She led him out of the house.
They soon arrived at this pool, it was dark and the pool was closed, "Come on Scaredy cat" Ali mocked him climbing over the fence.
"You're getting more and more weird," Seto told Ali.
"Haven't you ever wanted to just do something fun" She climbed down the other side of the fence, "Come on, we're not going to get in trouble".
"I'm not worried about that," Seto said to Aliana.
"Then what are you worried about?" She asked.
"I never said I was worried about anything" Seto pointed out, making Ali sigh.
" Well then, climb over" She almost ordered him.
He gave a little gruff and in less than half the time she did it, he was over the fence and standing next to her.
"You know what they say Seto, when you work to hard, you tend to get tired, boring, and lose your crave for adventure" Ali told him slipping off her dress, leaving her with her bra and underwear.
"GAAHH, GOD DAMMIT. PUT YOUR CLOTHES BACK ON" he yelled at her as he covered his eyes and turned around.
"Boring" She mocked him before she jumped into the pool.
"Crazy woman. You do realise that we're going to have to go home in wet underpants" Seto sighed rolling his eyes.
"You lack adventure Seto." She mocked him again while she swam around.
"Well sorry if I don't like having wet saggy underwear" Seto explained to her, making her yawn.
"Are you tired Seto? No. Your boring" She said in a mocking tone,
"Fine, I'll get in" he said.
"I knew you would" She smiled. She dived under and when she resurfaced, Seto's only had his boxers on.
'Well now I know he wears boxers' Ali said hypnotized by his abs. That light blush line appeared over her cheeks once more.
"I'd move if I was you," he said with an amused smirk.
Ali quickly swam to the side.
Seto took a few steps back then quickly turned around and ran towards the pool. Curling in a ball, Seto finished his cannon ball off with a giant splash.
"AARRRGHHHOOOWWWW" he yelled when he resurfaced.
"What, what is it" Ali asked him with concern.
"That damn cannon ball gave me the biggest weggie"
Ali started laughing, "R-Really?" She laughed out
"Yes, god. I'm starting to wonder if it's actually possible to pull it up" Seto said making Ali started laughing harder.
"Ok, so I agree, your not That Boring" Ali told him.
"That's wonderful," he murmured.
"Isn't it" Ali said swimming around.
"Now I remember why I avoided doing bomb dives," Seto said in pain.
Ali laughed again, "why don't you pick it out?" Ali said making herself laugh more.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK I'VE BEEN TRYING TO DO FOR THE LAST TWO MINUTES?" he yelled.
"Try and find your underwear" Making her laugh hysterically.
"If it wasn't for the fact that it would be classified as sexual harassment, I would so give you your own wedgie to worry about," he hissed.
Ali poked her tongue out at Seto, "Ha!"
"Screw the law," he mumbles. Suddenly, Seto was swimming towards Ali at a fast pace, something that Ali didn't anticipate.
Aliana screamed, but not loud, so that no one could hear her, she tried her hardest to swim away and get to the side of the pool, but she was in the middle of the pool.
In one swift move, Seto had grabbed hold of her waist and pull up her underwear as high as he could.
"OOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW" She screamed in pain, she slapped his hands away, "BASTARD" She growled trying to pull her undies back in place
A big, but evil, grin had appeared on Seto's face.
"You're dead," She growled at him grabbing his wrists and pushing him under.
Trying her hardest to keep him under, Ali quickly switched from holding him down by his wrists to pushing his head down. Seto arms quickly surfaced and as soon as they did, they were waving about frantically. After a couple of seconds, she let go.
"Are you dead?" She asked when he resurfaced with a deep breath
"No, BUT YOU ARE" He yelled
"No, No I'm not" She waved her hands frantically in front of her face.
"YES YOU ARE" He shouted
She shook her head, "Nope"
"Well you're going to die," He growled at her.
She poked her tongue out at him and swam away, "All I was doing was getting you back for giving me a DEADLY wedgie" She growled remembering when he gave her the wedgie.
"Wedgies are reversible, death isn't" Seto told Aliana.
"I so did not kill you, and you won't kill me" Ali pointed out
"You tried" Seto growled.
"I wasn't going to kill you," Ali told him.
