Author's Note: This is my first YGO fic, so please be gentle
in reviews, no flames, I only use them to cook with. ^^;; Also note,
that my fics more than likely suck, since English was never a
good subject for me... I always get things mixed up... gomen...
I know, Seto must be a bit OOC to you guys, but I am
bringing out his family side for this fic, something I
wish to explore. ^^
Sorry for this chapter being short, I just wanted a short
interlude between Seto and Sakura, for the pure romance-lovers
out there. ^.^

own Sakura Yuuki, and all future created characters. ^_^
Chapter 2 - "3 AM Interlude"
Seto's eyes open, to upon hearing a loud crack of thunder, he sits up
with a groan, running his fingers through his tousled hair. Glancing at his clock,
finding the red numbers flashing 3:00 am. "Only three? Damn..." He flops
back onto his bed, wincing as a flash of lightning streaks across his
line of vision. "Hmm, I wonder how se is doing..." He swings his legs
over the edge of his bed, and stands.
A smile forms on his lips, at knowing Mokuba must have tucked him in
before heading to sleep himself. "That little..." He laughs, shaking his head as he walks out
of his room, and down the dark hallway. Feeling along the wall, he carefully makes
his way to the room Sakura is slumbering in, his hand resting upon the handle.
He can hear soft sobs coming from within, which make his heart break
slightly, as he remembers how his baby brother is usually crying over the weather
like this. Set slowly raises his hand, and knocks softly.
"Sakura? Daijoubu desu-ka?" He calls out to her, opening the door just a crack.
"H-Hai... I'm ok... Kaiba-san." Her soft voice replies with a slight yelp
of fear from the rumble of thunder. Seto walks into her room, barely making
any noise, except for his breathing. He sits beside her, trying not to laugh
as she hides under the safety of her blankets. "It's not the thunder that can hurt you."
"I know! It just scares me!" Sakura whimpers from her hiding place, gasping as Seto
climbs in with her, as he does with Mokuba when he is scared of thunder.
He only places a finger upon her lips, as he pulls out his trusty penlight,
illuminating her face briefly, seeing the look of surprise within her wide eyes.
"Don't worry, this is something I do when my brother is afraid of storms."
Sakura only nods and lays her head upon her pillow, her eyes never leaving
his, as she thinks of something to talk about, not coming up with anything... except.
"What are your dreams of the future, Kaiba-san?"
He sighs and lies on his back, folding his hands under his head. "Well, besides making Kaiba Corporation
a huge success, I'd like to become a family man, actually." He confesses to her, a faint blush
staining his cheeks. He hardly knows this girl, yet he feels like he can talk to her about,
anything, and everything. "And call me Seto." He adds with a faint smile.
"Alright...Seto." She giggles and places her hand under her head, glancing
over at him with shining eyes. He smiles back, and turns on his side, resting his chin
upon his right hand, "Now, tell me of your dreams."
Sakura smiles to him, her eyes slowly close, "My dreams... my biggest dream is to become
either a computer game programmer, or an artist to make Duel Monster cards."
His eyes widen, such wonderful dreams, much like his own as a game programmer
in his spare time. "Continue, please." He asks, his voice soft.
"My other dream... is to become a mother of an army of children." She giggles
softly upon saying army, "but I have to find the right guy first, ne?"
Seto only nods, his eyes meeting hers as the open once more, "True, he
is out there somewhere, possibly looking for you, Sakura." He places his hand upon
her cheek, marveled at the softness he finds there.
Blue eyes meet green, and two souls seem to bond with an unseen
force, joining them like two missing puzzle pieces. Seto leans forward,
his eyes slowly close as his lips near her own.
Crack!
Another rumble of thunder rolls over the mansion, causing Sakura
to leap into Seto's arms, clinging onto him for dear life. He only smiles
faintly, placing his arms around her trembling shoulders, as he turns off his pen-light.
"Just hold my hand, I'll stay with you until the storm passes, ne?" He looks
down into her questioning gaze, already knowing what questions are in her mind. He
has a feeling she is wondering why he isn't acting like the cold-hearted bastard
people make him out to be. She has all the right in the world to wonder of this,
all he can do, is take her hand in his, and hold it over his heart.
Sakura nods, and grasps his hand, her head resting upon his well-toned chest, she
can feel every ripple of muscle under the fabric of his shirt, hear the beat of his heart,
the heat of his body melding with her own.
The melody of his heartbeat soon helps the young woman fall into a dream-filled
sleep, her breathing slow and soft against his chest. Seto shivers as it touches
a small patch of exposed skin, sending goosebumps along his body.
'What is it about her I seem to adore?' He wonders, as his hand runs through her
hair on instinct, the silky strands spilling through his fingers like water. Seto only
shakes his head, as sleep overtakes his body, as he falls asleep against the warmth
of Sakura's slender body.
Just as they fall into the land of dreams, a small face can be seen from the doorway,
shrouded in light from a flashlight, it's none other than Mokuba, spying on Seto as usual.
He smiles, and slowly closes the door to the guestroom.
"She's perfect for you, big brother... don't let he go so easily, please!" Mokuba
prays as he quietly makes his way to his bedroom, hoping his brother has found
the right girl to confide in this time. He lies in his bed, glancing at his
favorite photo of himself and Seto as children.
"I worry about you, Seto." He kisses the photo lovingly, before
crawling under the warmth of his blankets, pulling his teddy bear close
to his chest, just as he falls asleep to the soft melody of the falling rain
outside his window.
