Take Your Sweet
Time
Jesse smiled as Alexis grabbed onto his arm in slight fear from the height that they were at. Duel Academy was having a festival in honor of the tournaments close and for the student representatives who would be going back home soon.
Jesse would be one of them.
But that didn't stop the bluenette from developing the special feelings he held for the girl next to him.
Higher and higher the Ferris wheel went. And just as Jesse had hoped, it slowed near to top, and stopped.
"Such a beautiful view…" Alexis gasped in awe, her hazel eyes sparkling at the sight of the sun sinking into the ocean.
"Sure is. Wanna know what else I think is beautiful?" Jesse then replied in his charming southern accent.
Alexis turned and looked at him, "Sure."
His emerald orbs met hers, "You."
"M-Me?" Alexis actually blushed.
Sure she was used to boys telling her she was beautiful but she always claimed the same thing.
She was in love with dueling.
Nonetheless, after meeting the amazing and unique Jesse Andersen, Alexis' heart was starting to argue.
He was so different from the others. He held a gentle soul and he was charming and unique. Others tended to argue though, saying he was crazy all because he referred to his Duel Spirits as his family. But Jesse was as sane as Alexis was…
"Yup," Jesse smiled.
Alexis looked down, "I'm going to miss you, Jesse."
Jesse paused, "C'mon now, Lex, don't think of sad things. Let's have fun…"
"But you're still going to end up leaving me and I-" Alexis broke off with a furious blush.
"Lex… you don't want me to leave…?"
"Of course not. Why would I?"
Jesse looked away, "'Cause a lot of people 'round here don't want me here."
Alexis touched his shoulder, "I am not one of them. You are my friend and Jaden and the others certainly don't want you to go either. All of us risked a lot in that dimension to save you and defeat Yubel." She whispered.
"Thanks Lex."
His emerald eyes brightened and any sadness left.
Yet Alexis' sorrow still remained.
She forced a smile, trying to ignore the pain that was settling itself deep inside her heart.
If only there was a way for Jesse to stay…
"Alexis?"
"Hmm?"
Jesse was suddenly really close, "Just say the word… and I'll stay…"
His words confused her.
Yet also they relieved her.
All she had to do was say it…
"J-Jesse…"
"I wanna stay Lex…"
"Why?"
"'Cause I will be here when you change your mind. Take your sweet, sweet time. I will be here, for you baby, anytime…'" Jesse quoted softly. "'I'm feelin' you pull away, 'cause lettin' go isn't easy for me…'"
"Jesse…"
"'I will never stand in your way. Wherever your heart may leave you, I will love you the same. And I will be your comfort everyday. Do you hear the words I say?'"
Alexis froze.
She had heard the words "I love you" before.
But no one else had made her heart pound this way.
Nor did they have captivating green eyes that haunted her nights.
"I love you, Jesse… don't leave…" Alexis whispered, wrapping her arms around his torso.
Jesse wrapped his own around her, "I don't wanna go… and I'm not…"
"Promise?"
"Forever…"
Alexis glanced up and Jesse looked down. Their eyes met and they leaned in until their lips met in their first kiss.
Jesse's along with Alexis'…
"I took my time all year long, debating about whether or not…"
"We were in love? Alexis, I've been in love with you since the moment I saw you…"
"A dream comes true…"
Jesse closed his eyes, "You're finally mine… and I'm finally yours…"
Alexis closed hers as well.
Together they held each other as the final rays of the sun sunk beneath the ocean.
Together forever…
The End
A/N: Aw… Dreamshipping makes me feel all warm inside. Jesse is really the charmer, isn't he? LOL. Wish he went to my school… hehe. Please R&R!
