Chapter eight
 
I get up on Monday to go to school and I'm still in a happy daze from Friday.
 
My Aunt notices how happy I still am and tells me, “If Kaiba does anything to hurt you let me know. I'll make his life a living hell at work for it.”
 
“Aunt Sam, I don't think it will ever come down to that.”
 
“Still. I want you to know that I won't stand by as you get your heart crushed again.”
 
“Thank you Aunt Sam. I know how much you love me, but remember how Seto acted before towards me and now how he acts towards me. Do you think he would do something like that just to hurt me?”
 
“Your right Gabe. Have a wonderful day at school and try not to jump Kaiba in the washroom or the locker room.”
 
A look of utter shock crosses my face and I'm rendered speechless.
 
I just walk out on her and make my way to school.
 
I get there early so that I can show Seto my sketches before class.
 
I walk in the classroom and smile at the sight before me. Seto is sitting in his seat completely immersed in the latest book he is reading.
 
I'm silent as I make my way over to him. I want to surprise him.
 
I'm almost to my seat and he looks at me.
 
“I was trying to surprise you.”
 
He smiles at me and says, “I could hear you coming in the door.”
 
“No fair. How was your weekend?” I bend over once I get to him and kiss him briefly on the lips. I usually wouldn't do something like that, but I know for a fact that no one will see us.
 
I made up my mind before school that he would probably want to keep this from everyone.
 
“It was boring. There were things that I needed to do even though I really wanted to see you.”
 
I blush and sit down. Why couldn't I find Seto before Nick? Well, I don't think that could have happened.
 
If I never got together with Nick my parents wouldn't have sent me to Japan and I would have not met Seto.
 
And if I never met Seto I never would have had the wonderful date I had on Friday.
 
I smile at the thought.
 
“Earth to Gabriel.”
 
I blush, “Sorry Seto. I was thinking about our date on Friday. I brought my sketch book for you to see.”
 
“Let me see it then.”
 
I hand over my sketch book and watch him as he opens it.
 
The first one is the one I was drawing on the plane. It's of Nick holding me as I was crying.
 
He flips the pages slowly with a thoughtful expression on his face.
 
He hinds the picture of me crying that I did after Nick broke up with me.
 
He puts his hands on my face and looks deep into my eyes. He then brushes his thumbs under my eyes and says, “I never want to see tears coming out of your beautiful emerald eyes. Do you understand me?”
 
I nod my head completely lost in all the emotion I see in his eyes.
 
He smiles at me, kisses my nose and goes back to looking at the last few sketches.
 
He gets to the picture of him and Mokuba and smiles sadly.
 
“What's wrong Seto?”
 
“Nothing baby, it's just that I haven't held him like that in years.” He goes back to looking at the last ones. The last one is an unfinished sketch I'm drawing of us kissing in the garden at the restaurant he took me to.
 
“Gabriel, they're beautiful. You draw so well. Could I have a copy of a few of them?”
 
“Sure. Which ones do you want?”
 
“The one's of you and me and the one of me and Mokuba.”
 
“Ok. I'll get them to you soon.”
 
“Could you maybe paint them? So that they are in color?”
 
“I can do that. It will take me longer though.”
 
“That's ok I can wait. What are you doing after school today?”
 
“Nothing, why did you have something planed?”
 
“I was thinking maybe if you and your Aunt were free taking you, her and Mokuba out to dinner.”
 
“That would be nice. I have to talk with my Aunt first of course.”
 
“Even if she doesn't come, will you?”
 
“Yes.”
 
The other students start coming in and soon Yugi comes bounding over to me and says, “Good morning Gabriel! How was your weekend?”
 
“It was ok. I was kinda lonely though.” I sneak a glance at Seto.
 
“Sorry about that. It was my weekend working.”
 
“That's ok Yugi; it gave me time to think about some things.”
 
He leans in and whispers, “Thinking about Kaiba weren't you?”
 
“Yeah I was.”
 
Class soon begins and I start to finish my sketch.
 
After class ends I gather my stuff and start to leave.
 
Seto is waiting for me by the door.
 
He smiles at me and kisses my cheek.
 
I'm a bit shocked that he did it. I mean I thought that maybe he would want to keep us from everyone so it won't hurt his image or something.
 
“Is there something wrong Angel?”
 
“No, it's just that I thought that you would want to keep our relationship away from everyone. So there wouldn't be any publicity about it.”
 
“Do you really think I would care about something like that? Let them talk.”
 
I kiss him and smile at him. “I love you Seto.”
 
We hold hands as we walk through the halls. Sometimes stopping to sneak a small kiss.
 
The whole day passes on like that. I've never been so happy in my life.
 
And then that night at dinner, we kept sneaking looks at each other and touching whenever we could.
 
I was scared at first about how his brother would react to me, but when he saw me he hugged me and told me that he was happy for me and his brother.
 
That made me happy and able to enjoy dinner and everything.
