Entering into a calming presence
I found myself enveloped in a quiet stillness that sent chills down my spine in the most soothing way.
It felt as if the blood in my veins had slowed down to a tranquil
And the cold air wrapped around me like a gentle embrace
Infusing the warmth and relaxation into my very core.

In this moment
I could sense the atmosphere softening
Like a bubble gradually losing its strength, poised on the brink of popping.
Once it breaks
The world around it would scatter like water droplets released from the sky
Each one shimmering with its own story.

Here I am now
In a immersed state in this serene state
Where everything outside fades away.
The presence surrounding me is neat, almost ethereal

A comforting reminder of the peace that can be found in stillness.
It's a feeling that roots me to the moment, grounding me in a way that feels both delicate and profound.

It's as though everything has settled into a state of ground-level ease.
A quiet balance, untouched by external forces, as if the very core of everything is centered, securely placed where it belongs.
It rests there, unmoved
Without a single branch daring to reach or disturb it.

It feels like a moment of zero gravity
Where nothing binds, nothing pulls.
There's no weight, no tethering force.
It's an existence where things simply float—free
From the burdens of touch or tension, suspended in an untouched space of calm.

As we settled down in my room
A comfortable quiet hung between us.

As it is...

"You know" Seto Kaiba

"About what.. is there something in particular?" Yuza

"Nothing that concerns you a lot but.." Seto Kaiba

I turned around receiving his attention

"I guess I can be.." Yuza

"You know, you're a lot of things," Seto Kaiba

He continues as his eyes brieftly scanning the room
As if searching for something

"Yeah, I guess I am.. quite lot of things." Yuza

I replied with a light smile playing on my lips.

"But it's alright. I don't mind. It's not something I don't think about often." Yuza

Kaiba crossed his arms,
His eyes briefly scanning the room.

"It makes it more in a sense when it matters." Seto Kaiba

"Yeah, I suppose it does, but it's not something I dwell on too much," Yuza

I gestured towards the bed
Feeling a little more relaxed.

"Please make yourself comfortable.
I don't want you feeling out of place." Yuza

Kaiba gave a slight nod.

"I won't."Seto Kaiba

I sat down beside him
Looking over at him with concern.

"I hope everything's going okay for you." Yuza

Kaiba shrugged slightly
Keeping his usual cool demeanor.

"It's nothing worth talking about." Seto Kaiba

"If there's anything on your mind, just let me know so I can help," Yuza

"If it's something I can handle, I'll take care of it," Seto Kaiba

"Alright... but don't push yourself too hard," Yuza

If it's anything have to do with magic or.. bad powers
Something bad
I would be more worried about

"Yuza, you always manage to surprise me. There's something about you—calm, but powerful. It draws me in more than I'd care to admit." Seto Kaiba

He said
His voice was low and genuine.

"Really..? I never thought of I could be seen in that way" Yuza

I admitted softly.

"It suits you. I wouldn't change a thing," Seto Kaiba

He replied, his tone unwavering.

"What can I do about it? I always feel like I should try harder to be... good" Yuza

I said
With a feeling a mix of nervousness and sincerity.

"There's no need to try hard. I already have everything I wanted right here" Seto Kaiba

Kaiba said as he leans in slightly.
I turned to him, surprised by the warmth in his words.
It felt more like a compliment than I had expected.

"Well... I suppose it could be seen that way," Yuza

"You will see it. You will know" Seto Kaiba

I replied, a smile tugging at my lips.
It was incredibly sweet—
More than I had anticipated.
It made me feel nice, maybe even cherished.

"You always have a way of surprising me" Yuza

I added, glancing at him as I moved to my desk
Organizing my pencils and stacking my paperwork.

"Well, I just did, as always, Yuza. I'll always be keeping an eye on you. You're a constant source of surprises." Seto Kaiba

"I'll admit, I can be a lot of things. It's difficult to keep track" Yuza

I said.

"Anyone can keep track—unless they're just a naive puppy. I admire you, Yuza. That will never change," Seto Kaiba

He replied.

"It won't. Change isn't really my style. I prefer to keep things as they are, so I don't have to worry about things... less or two," Yuza

I also added.

"I know... I understand how you are," Seto Kaiba

"It doesn't surprise me but I know you do."Yuza

"Well, the truth is, you're a lot of things.
I admire you for that," Seto Kaiba

"Same here too, Kaiba.
You're important to me. I want to stay close to you; you're like a bubble I can't help but want to be around," Yuza

"Important? I didn't realize you saw me that way. But.., if I'm the bubble, then you're the force that keeps me grounded. I wouldn't want it any other way." Seto Kaiba

"You'll always be the one to keep me on top.." Yuza

"You know I always aim for the top. If you're with me, we'll get there together.....maybe." Seto Kaiba

I smiled gratefully
Feeling a warmth in my chest as his words resonated deeply within me.
Enveloping my world in the intensity of affection and warmth
It shuts my world down turning it to this

"There's nothing I could have ever imagined doing without you, Yuza." Seto Kaiba

"I know," Yuza

I replied softly
Feeling the weight of his words hit me like a stone against a wall..
Solid and unshakable.
