Short and possibly sweet is what this chapter is. Whether or not you agree on the "sweet" part will be up to you guys!


Kaiba woke first the following morning, feeling more refreshed than he had in ages. He felt a weight on him and found Ryo fast asleep on top of him, her head pillowed on his chest. He reached down to touch her, when the door to the room opened. He pulled the sheets up so she was hidden, although there was no mistaking that there was someone on top of him, curled up. Her gentle breath wafted over his bare skin, causing him to shiver as he looked up to see who'd entered the room.

"Nii-sama, you're finally awake!"

He smiled at his little brother, who still wore his pajamas. "Come in, Mokuba."

The black-haired boy grinned and ran over. "You look really great today, Nii-sama! Did you sleep well?"

"Yes I did, not a single nightmare."

"Hooray! Are you coming down for breakfast?"

"No. I have to take care of something."

"Okay. Be done soon, it's Sunday, you know."

As he ran out of the room, Ryo shifted and muttered in English, "Seto Kaiba, you need more marshmallows for your s'mores…"

Mokuba stopped in his tracks. "Nii-sama, who's in bed with you?"

"Some girl, you don't need to know who at the time being."

"For work or pleasure?"

"Pleasure."

"Is she some girl you picked up off the street?"

"Mokuba."

"Sorry! Is she a foreigner?"

"Yes. Now go on, before she wakes up."

"Tell me more later, I want to know who brought you to this point. Not even I could chase away your nightmares."

The door shut, and Kaiba sighed, drawing the sheets back down. He gazed down at her and lifted his hand to stroke her hair. Unlike how rigid it looked when styled, it was actually silky smooth, so he kept it up, liking her hair, how it felt on his skin.

"Let go… I don't want to share… Get your own…" she murmured.

He shook his head as he twirled a lock around his fingers, before he let his hands wander down her back, rubbing down her soft, unmarred skin, his fingertips circling on her lower back.

Her blue eyes opened, and she looked up to see she was on top of Kaiba, and he was rubbing circles into her back. She tried to sit up, but her body felt tired still, like she'd had a long workout.

"Kaiba-san…I can't move…"

He chuckled, not mocking, but in good humor. "I'd expect so, since we 'did it' last night."

She fell back on his chest with a groan. "I wasn't ready."

"Just so you know, I was nervous, too."

Her eyes widened and she looked up to see he was smiling. She crawled up his body and they shared a tender kiss that caused both of them to shed a few tears.


It's just the afterglow talking...right? *shrugs* I'm not saying a word about such spoilers!
