Ali laid down on her bed, brushing her hair with her fingers, the feel of it so soothing. She was confused with everything, Seto was so much different than she had expected.

She sighed out, realizing it hadn't been that far back where she wanted to lose him for her job.

'I could never do that, I have no idea what came over me' Aliana thought to herself.

She sat up and looked over at the time. It had been 2days since she had seen Seto, but she knew he was busy, so she didn't want to disturb him. She guessed the only she could do was have some days alone.

She hadn't been alone for a long time, she always seemed to see him somewhere. It had been 3weeks since they started going out, and all she could think about was telling him how she felt.

Ali was scared, she had no idea what was happening to her feelings, and her emotions were everywhere. She would nearly collapse from loss of breath when he spoke to her, his smile would melt her. And his touch would make her want more of him.

Fluffy meowed as she jumped onto the bed.

"Fluffy, I'm scared, what happens if I tell him my feelings, and then he doesn't feel the same way back, or maybe I'll say something stupid before telling him my feelings and he'll think I'm a freak and not want to hear my feelings" Ali explained, watching her hands shake from the stress she was feeling.

Fluffy meowed and rubbed up against Aliana's hands, making Ali laugh.

"I know, but stressing out is the only thing I can do" Ali explained, "But what if me loving him causes him to die. Wait, how is my love supposed to kill him? What am I going to do, suffocate him with my love?" she added the last sentence with a scared tone.

Fluffy didn't meow this time, she just laid on Ali's lap, "So, you're not going to listen to me either anymore?" She asked a bit disappointed

Fluffy meowed, which in Ali's opinion, sounded a bit sarcastic.

"Well, if you're not going to listen to me, don't lay on my lap, you're not worthy to lay on my lap, if you listen to me, then you can. If you don't. Get off" Ali said glaring at Fluffy.

Fluffy gave a little sulking noise and laid her head down. It was obvious that Ali had won

Ali giggled and grinned at no one unparticular, "I love it when I win".

'Now only if I could win with Seto, then everything will be perfect' she thought to herself.

"Fluffy, do you think he feels the same way back" Ali asked her feline friend.

Fluffy gave a small shrug.

"Yeah why did I even ask you? Your a cat" Ali said glaring at the back of Fluffy's head.

' How can I fall in love with someone over 3 weeks' She thought to herself, lying herself down on her bed, 'But then again, some people can fall in love at first sight'.

"I guess it wouldn't be fair if I just stop talking to him for a while and avoid him" Ali explained to herself. Nodding every few seconds.

'Then he'll think I'm mad at him' She thought, 'But it's totally the opposite. Damn these vile feelings of mine. Never in my life have I thought that I would fall in love, and with none other than Seto Kaiba'

'He's such a nice bastard' Ali thought, patting Fluffy, who was asleep on her lap.

Moments of peace soon turned to none as the doorbell rang; Ali looked up from her lap and pushed Fluffy lightly off her. She stood up and stretched before walking to her door, which rang again after moments, She sighed as she looked through the door piece, Edmund stood there impatiently. She slowly unlocked the door and opened it, to reveal Edmund with a black long sleeve shirt on and dark jeans. Aliana was wearing a pink halter neck shirt and jeans. That she usually never wore. But because she thought she had a day off, she was going to walk around the apartment with them on.

"Hey" She said as her jet black hair fell into her face.

Edmund starred at her for a bit before saying "oh, hey"

"What?" She asked, realizing he was starring at her, "I know it's not everyday you see me wearing jeans. But you really don't need to be starring at me"

"Uh yeah" he said as he started shifting nervously.

"Oh" She stepped aside and gestured him inside, "No point on coming all the way over here and having to stand outside" She said in a joking way, making her giggle.

"Yeah" he replied his a nervous laugh

He walked past her and into her apartment. Aliana closed the door and turned around confused, "What's wrong?" She asked.

"Nothing. Nothing at all" He mumbled out.

She walked over to him and looked at him with a stern face, "It has to be something, you're all nervous and all weird. What's wrong?" She asked in a bit of a more serious voice.

"It's nothing Ali, seriously" He replied.

Her expression turned into a smile, "Ok, I know you wouldn't lie to me" She explained.

Edmund starred at her with disbelief for a second then smiled.

"So, was there any reason you came over? Or did you just want to hang out?" She asked, leaving the smile on her face.

"Ali?" He asked, he quickly turned away from her gaze and messed around with his hair,

"Yeah?" Ali said, moving a little closer to him. Not understanding what was going to happen.

He turned around and was about to say something when he stopped and looked at her for a moment. He shook his head, "Nothing, I just came over to hang out"

Ali was unconvinced, but went along and smiled, "Alright, it's good I had nothing planned for today, or you'd be out of luck," She laughed, not even understanding her own jokes.

"Hehe, yeah" he gave another nervous laugh. Ali knew that something was defiantly up.

Ali was going to ask him another question but realised he wouldn't tell her the truth, so she sighed and kept smiling, "So what's happening in your life right now Edmund?" She asked him.

"Well, my mother won't stop bugging me about not having a girlfriend. The girl I want doesn't like me and my dog died last week. You?" He said bluntly.

"You had a dog?" She asked, she snapped out of daze and started talking before he had a chance to reply, "I'm good, I guess" She answered.

She didn't want to say she was great, because he was having a bad week. And her week was pretty good.

"Yeah, he lived at my mum's house cause he stay here. But I've had him since I was a kid" Edmund explained.

Ali didn't know what she was supposed to do. Comfort him, or not?

"Well you knew sooner or later he would have to pass on" Ali said with a slight smile.

"Yeah, he was very old but he was such a good dog" Edmund told her, she nodded.

"Well something in you're life must be going well, right?" She asked, she shifted her weight to her left leg. Yet it only made her shorter.

"I've lost some weight, does that count?" Edmund asked.

"Well, that depends, how are you losing weight, are you not eating, or are you exercising?" She asked. Now a bit concerned.

"I just haven't been hungry" Edmund mumbled.

Ali's eyes widened, "Edmund!" She walked right up him, she was up to his shoulders, "You can't do that! you're a grown man, you're supposed to eat!" She argued.

Her sky eyes starring straight into his hazel eyes.

"I do eat, when I'm hungry and it's just that I'm not really hungry," Edmund explained. Ali wouldn't have it.

"It doesn't matter!" She told him, throwing her arms up in the air, "It doesn't matter if you're not hungry! You eat and eat until you throw up. I will not see you starving yourself because you say you're 'not hungry'. " She told him. Concerned and scared for him. She didn't even realise she had tears in her eyes. He was eating, but that wasn't good enough for her, he wasn't eating enough.

"Ali, what's the point of eating until you throw up? That's probably just as bad" Edmund explained, making eye contact with Aliana.

She looked away and mumbled, "It's better than not eating at all, and at least it was in your system for a little while"

"Yes but the acids in your stomach can do some damage" Edmund said to her.

She wouldn't have it, this wasn't about any of that, it was about him. And at the moment, he wasn't caring about himself. So she did what she had to. Her hand collided with his cheek.

"You're stupid! You're so damn stupid," She kept repeating, letting random tears fall from her eyes. She looked up at him, to see him still shocked from her blow. His face was stunned from the slap and his head was forced to the side. His hand automatically came and touched his cheek, as he looked back over to her, her face now stained with tears, She yelled at him, "You may not care about yourself, but I do!"

"Ali. I told you, it's not because I'm not taking care of myself. I'm just eating when I'm hungry and it just so happens that I'm getting very hungry"

Ali looked up at him wiping her dry tears, "Tell me what's wrong, please" She asked, her gaze leaving Edmund, and landing on the floor.

"I just don't like seeing you love Seto Kaiba" Edmund replied.

Ali's eyes widened, "What?"

"It tears me apart knowing that you love another guy," Edmund answered angrily.

"What do u mean? You didn't tell me until I was another guy" Aliana told him defensively

"I know that and I'm paying the price by having to watch you with another guy, "Edmund said.

"Why does it hurt so much?" She asked softly. Knowing the answer.

"Because I love you so much that I'm selfish enough to want to be the only person who has a special place in your heart" Edmund explained, moving closer to Ali.

Her eyes widened, stunned in reply.

" Love me?" Ali asked in astonishment

"Yes Ali, I love you more than anyone in this world," Edmund admitted. Cupping Ali's face in his hands.

"W-Why do you love me?" She asked in shock. Looking up at Edmund. There faces closer than ever.

"Because you're beautiful and try in every single way" Edmund explained.

Ali suddenly pulled herself away from his grip and stood her ground, "It can't be. It won't be. I can't let you love me! I refuse to let you love me!" She was nearly yelling.

"You might not want to accept it but you can't stop me from feeling this way" Edmund spoke. Making Ali cringe in fear.

"I'm not perfect, I don't have a good body, I don't have big boobs, I'm shy and insecure about myself, how could you ever love someone like me," Ali argued.

"Because you are you. If I wanted a girl with big boobs and a flamboyant personality then I would find one but I don't want a girl like that," Edmund explained. Making Ali eyes become blurry with tears.

She couldn't hear this, not from him. She felt terrible about feeling anything for Seto because Edmund felt so much for her.

"I- I can- I can't deal with this. Please- Please just leave" She hiccupped constantly

"Ok" he told her softly.

She watched as he walked out of the apartment and closed the door behind him

Aliana slowly slid onto the ground and silently sobbed to herself.

'Why me' she thought to herself as she sobbed.

Ali cried herself to sleep that night; nothing in the world could cheer her up. She didn't know if being with Seto was helping her, or making her more miserable.

She ate her cereal patting Fluffy who was lying next to her bowl. She looked up miserably as the sound of ringing seep through her ears.

Getting up slowly, she trudged to the phone and picked it up.

"Hello" She said dully.

"Ali? Hey"

To her surprise, the other line was a male, and a voice that was way to familiar.

"Seto?" She asked, with a bit of emotion in her voice.

"Nah, it's superman. Of course it's me," Seto said sarcastically to Ali, Making her giggle.

"I've just never had a call from you, that's all" She explained.

"Well do you feel special now that I have called you?" he asked with a tone of amusement

"Well, I would rather see you're face, But having you call just means you're thinking of me all the time, which I guess you'd call obsessed." Aliana teased. Making herself laugh.

Seto gave a small laugh as well.

"Well it seems that you have figured out my secret," He said in an amused voice.

"And you act surprised" Ali said like she was shocked.

"Yes of course. I was trying to hid my imminent obsession from you but I guess you were to good for me" Seto said sarcastically.

"The phone call kind of put it all together." She said in a mocking tone, like she never heard his sarcasm

"Ahh" he said in a wise tone. Ali giggled and sat down on her chair, taking a bite of her cereal.

"So why did you ring me in the first place anyway" Ali asked, after swallowing the bits in her mouth.

"I thought the fact that I was obsessed with you would have given away the reason why I called," Seto said in a teasing tone.

Ali gasped. Not realizing he was so smart was her weakness, "So you just wanted to hear my voice, how sweet" Ali mocked him.

"Oh I didn't want to hear your voice, I was just bored" Seto answered.

Ali jumped up from her seat and huffed, "If you were here right now, you'd be lying on your back." She growled in an amused tone.

"Really? That sounds very intriguing. What would you do if I was lying on my back?" He said in an interested tone.

"Hurting you!" Aliana growled, not realizing how disgusting it would sound to Seto.

"If you're trying to scare me then you're doing a terrible job. All your really doing is arousing me," Seto explained.

Ali sighed, "Thank god I'm arousing you now and not when we're talking person to person" She laughed to herself.

"So, to just make things clear. How are you going to hurt me?" Seto asked, in a begged tone.

"Well I guess you're just going to have to come over here and find out" Ali said in a mysterious, sexy voice.

"With that kind of invitation then I think I will" Seto replied.

Ali grinned as she said, "But don't wear tight clothes, because when I start, you can't stop me" She stuck her tongue out, knowing just how sick and intimate that sounded.

"Aww, but that's my favourite type of clothing. Do you really want to use your imagination?" Seto said, whining.

"Fine, wear you're clothes if you must, doesn't matter. There going to be coming off anyway" She covered her mouth this time. Word vomit. This happens when she's into a conversation.

"Oh I get it. You just want me in my birthday suit?" Seto said sarcastically.

Ali laughed, "There's a lot of things I want you in."

"But mainly my birthday suit right?" Seto asked in a positive way.

"Do you want me in my birthday suit?" She asked, getting interested.

"I've being dreaming of you in your birthday suit since we first met" Seto said casually.

Ali grunted in shocked. Her cheek burned up and she gulped, "Ok"

"I knew that would scare you" he mocked her.

"What do you mean, 'that would scare me' I wasn't scared" Ali huffed. Trying to hide her embarrassment

"Sure it didn't. I bet that your face is turning bright red as we speak" As Seto spoke, Ali was walking into the bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed. Bright red.

"No" She lied.

"What was the sigh then?" Seto asked.

Aliana scrunched up her face, trying to think of another lie, the first one that came to her mind, she blurted out, "Well I was sighing at how stupid you are"

"No you weren't. You were sighing because you wish I was stupid," Seto said intelligently

"Well maybe you can forget coming over here" Ali huffed

"If I did then your going to get awfully sad, aren't you?" Seto said.

Ali growled, "NO!" She yelled in a lying tone. She knew all to well he heard her tone of voice. Ali hung her head. Her lies would never get passed Seto.

He gave a low chuckle before he said, "I'll be there in 5 minutes"

Ali laughed and replied, "Can't wait"

She smiled and hung up the phone, but not before saying a simple 'bye'.

Ali quickly did her hair and tidied up around the lounge room and kitchen. She placed Fluffy in her bed and made her bed. Soon enough. Her doorbell rang.

Ali's mind gave a little jump of joy when she heard the small bell ring through the house.

She quickly paced to the door, and looked through the glass looker. It was Seto all right.

She smiled and opened the door.

She smiled at him when Ali opened the door. Seto's eyes widened a bit when he saw her in jeans.

"Now don't give me that look," She pouted.

"Why not? You look good in jeans" Seto complimented her. Ali smiled but frowned soon after.

"These are a one off thing, my other clothes are just in the wash. And I thought I would have a lazy day. So I didn't have to wear my skirts" Ali explained. Looking down at her jeans.

"You should wear them more often" Seto said, still in awe.

Ali frowned, "I just don't like things sticking to my legs"

"Yeah, I'd rather that nothing was there at all" Seto said.

Ignoring Seto's comment, she replied "I just don't like jeans that much, maybe once a month or something. But nothing more"

Ali looked at Seto's jeans and smiled. His were so tight, while she usually wore skirts. Nothing much to see in skirts, "I guess when I'm around you I could wear jeans".

"Good" he said in a demanding voice.

Ali quickly picked up his demanding voice and put her arms on her hips, "Oh, and wasn't that a little demanding"

"Oh it was but I don't care" Seto said bluntly.

"Well maybe I don't like you're tone" Ali grunted as she had closed the door in his face.

"You wanted me to come over and now your shutting me out. No wonder why I can never understand women" Seto grunted.

"Well if you weren't a total demanding MAN. Maybe I could understand what was dwelling in that mind of yours," She said opening the door up so she could see him. Yet he could only see part of her.

"Yeah but if I wasn't so totally demanding then I wouldn't be me now would I?" Seto said in an asking voice.

"Well, are you going to demand to come in, or are you going to force your way in, because I'm curious" Ali told Seto, smirking at him. Her face expression told him already that she wasn't just going to let him in.

Although he would have loved to have a bit more of an argument with her, Seto decided that standing in the hallway wasn't his style and barged into the apartment. Ali had not expected him to do this and got pushed back as he walked through the door.

Ali landed on the floor after losing her grip on her shoes. Her behind hit the carpet and she looked up shocked. Not realizing what had happened.

"On the ground in front of me already hey? I didn't realise how excited you were" Seto said raising his eyebrows.

Ali stayed on the floor, but answered, "NO! You just startled me that's all"

Seto smirked at shook his head lightly.

"I was only joking you dumbo" Seto replied.

She pouted and sat cross-legged on the ground, "Everything you say sounds so serious".

"Oh that's cause I am" Seto answered.

She shook her head, closing her head and yelled at him, "Don't say that! Because I'll think you really are!"

"Yeah I know and that's exactly why I said" Seto smirked at the jet-black girl on the ground in front of him.

"You're mean, you shouldn't take advantage of my weaknesses" Aliana whined at him. "But it's so much fun though" Seto told her.

She glared at him, "Come down here and say that!" She said in a threatening tone.

Seto leaned down right in front of Ali's face and told her. "But it's so much fun though".

"Oh you've done it now!" She grabbed his shoulders and with all her strength, in a quick pull. Seto was on the ground, lying onto of Ali. She didn't realise what would happen if she pulled him towards her. But she didn't mind.

"I knew you were excited" he told her through possessive eyes.

"Keep it to yourself tight pants!" She said pushing his face away from hers.

"But sharing is so much more fun" Seto whined.

"And what could you possible share with me?" She asked, laying her arms on the ground.

"Many, many things" he whispered in a slow sexy voice.

Shivers went up Aliana's spine and her body became all warm inside, "Is that so?" She asked, in a softer voice.

"Yes, it is"
