Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ All I ever wanted... ❯ The boy across the room ( Chapter 1 )

The boy across the room…

Seto looked into the darkness of his lab. He had been down there for at-least 6 hours so it had to be around 8:00 in the morning so he needed to get mokuba to school and do the food shopping and the other chores he needed to do. He walked out of the lab and walked across the grounds. He stopped buy the old oak tree that he and mokuba had planted a year ago. His eyes got a little misty, but he did not cry crying was weak and he was strong. He heard the side door open as mokuba came running towards him kaiba looked at him he had grown up so much since duelist kingdom and he had proved it during kaiba's battle city where he was stronger then even kaiba himself. Mokuba stopped just short of Seto.

`Um..', Mukoba started to stutter ` I kinda missed the bus will you..' Kaiba let out a kinda snort

`What do you think I was doing?' Mokuba looked up at his brother with satisfaction ` I had other things I needed to do today anyway so I can kill two birds with one stone, come on lets get going you wouldn't wanna be late would yha.' When they got to Mokuba's school he dropped him off and went straight to shopping he got the food he needed he went home. When he got there he saw a car in his driveway Seto was very confused because this car did not belong to him and all his servants had been given the week off he slowly pulled up to his house and he saw Yami sitting in the front seat. He got out of the car and went to get his food from the trunk `what the hell is Yami doing here?' Seto thought to himself. Slowly he saw Yami step out of the car and over to him.

`Here let me help you with that.' Yami said and took the remaining bags out of Seto's trunk and shut it. Seto started to rummage though his jeans to find his keys `I wonder why he has come all this way to see me and why is he helping me? Seto thoughts continued while he opened his front door. Once they were inside they set down the bags and Seto started to but the food away while he was doing so he asked Yami what he was doing here.

`So…' said Seto slowly `what made you come all this way to see me.' Yami's cologne filled the air with a wonderful sent as Seto smelt the air and was lost for a moment until Yami's voice brought him back to reality.

`Well,' started Yami `I just wanted to see if you and your brother were all right.' Seto watched Yami shift uncomfortably for a moment. Yami wanted to say the real reason for him being here but he wanted the right moment for it to come. He saw Kaiba look at him puzzled and for a moment `oh no what if kaiba already knows that I like him' Yami quickly thought of a cover-up line.

`So what are you doing later? Damn I mean umm like to you wanna come have dinner with me and my grandpa I mean oh man this isn't coming out right.' Kaiba fought hard to not laugh out loud.

`Sure why not I'll be over say around 7:30 ok with you?' kaiba answered. Yugi looked quite pleased with himself.

`That will be cool, huh Seto?' kaiba quickly turned around so his gaze met Yami's in a kind of icy-glare. Yugi stared back confused. `Did I insult you or something?'

`Well no…' Kaiba said still looking into Yami's eyes `its just that you've never called me `Seto' before.' Yami quickly let out a sigh of relief.

`Oh that's good I thought I might have insulted you.' Yami still saw the disbelief on Kaiba's face and quickly finished his sentence ` as for the `Seto' thing I just thought you'd like to be called by your real name that's all well if you want me to call you Kaiba then I will.' Seto's heart did a jump of disappointment `for a minute there I thought he liked me….' Yami slowly started to get up and he pushed in the chair that he had been siting in.

`Ok then it's settled I'll see you around 7:30.' Yami said `see you then.' And he made his way to the door.

`Yha' Seto said `see you then.'

It was 7:30 and seto stood outside yugi's grandfathers' house/card shoppe and was thinking of turning around and going back home when yugi's grandfather opened the door. Seto hadn't had much luck with yugi's grandfather after what he had done to him a few years ago so he figured that Mr. Moto still hated him.

`Umm… hi…' said seto slowly holding out his hand. Yugi's grandfather grabbed Seto's hand and shook it like a friend does and then he brought him against him for a hug. This caught seto off-guard and he started blushing ferociously.

`It's good to see you kaiba. How have you been?' he said as he let go of seto. Seto still feeling weird that a person who had once hated him was hugging him as if he were a long lost friend was confusing but still seto minded his manners and responded politely `its very nice to see you too Mr. Moto, and I've been doing find thank you for caring..' `Oh, great seto that sounded very cheesy.' Just then Yami was coming down the stairs to great Seto.

`Hey Seto dinners just getting put on the table come on in.' he followed Yami and his grandfather into the kitchen and they sat down to eat.

They started to talk about different things at the dinner table, something that Seto had never really experienced before, most of his dinners were very silent with the exception of Mokuba's gameboy that he brought down occasionally when he was very into a game. It felt very awkward to him. After everyone had he there fill and couldn't eat another bite Yami led Seto up to his room when he got up there he realized that his room looked small from the out side and big on the inside. Seto smelt the rooms' air it smelt like yugi and it was very relaxing and felt very warm and inviting. Seto turned to say something when he met Yami's gaze…………..
