I'll Stay By Your Side (A Setolox Fanfic)

Alive!

Seto's POV

I wonder what would make me be able to fully come back to life again? Well maybe... A hug started it maybe a... Ki-kiss? But I couldn't he'd think I was weird and might stop talking to me! I couldn't stand that happening.

"Seto can you think of anything that might work in letting you live again?" Ty asked. I blushed at my idea... Wait... Blushed? Ghosts can't blush... This can't be real, I'm feeling alive for the first time in years! It felt amazing to blush again. The sensation, I could feel my cheeks turning red, a feeling I hadn't felt in so long.

"Um I have an idea but you'll think its um... Weird..." I said nervously, trying to hold back from telling Ty how I felt.

"You can tell me, I promise I won't judge." He crossed his heart and held up his arm in a salute stance, but I had that aching feeling that he would judge. "Seto, stop holding in your feelings..." I thought to myself.

"Well... I, kinda um... Ok so a hug s-started it and m-maybe a... K-kiss could finish it..?" I stuttered out my words. Oh no... He-he hates me now I can tell... I was tearing up. Tearing up... Huh... I hadn't done that since I had last seen my parents. Suddenly Ty gripped my un-faded face and pulled it into his embrace, our lips locking. He was kissing me?! He... He loves me?

The kiss felt amazing, and I could feel something else happening... I was, glowing? I'm becoming alive! I gripped Ty's face back and embraced into this first feeling of love I had had in years of loneliness, we broke away for air.

"Ty? That... That was... Amazing! You love me?" I was so happy, I was alive, I was in love.

"I loved you Seto, since the moment I met you, and if we both get to leave here and continue our lives... I would sacrifice anything, I love you until the ends. Which I might face. " What Ty said made me want to cry, I'm loved for the first time in forever! I... Will save him.

"I love you too Ty," I hugged him and started to tear up.

"Can you leave the room? Oh wait wait that came out wrong sorry... I mean are you able to? Are you free?" Ty asked, and it hadn't occurred to me either.

I stepped towards the door, shaking in fear that I still couldn't leave, my hand was shaking, I looked behind at the same bed I perished in, where my love now is. I smiled a teary smile. I turned back to the door I had feared for years, I closed my eyes and stepped forward. I was... Out..? I'm free! I was screaming in my head, I'm free now! But I wouldn't be really free until I knew Ty was safe.

"Haha! I'm free Ty!" I said excitedly to him. When a nurse came into view in the hallway I panicked and ran back into the room where Ty was and hid under the bed. People still scare me, even though I'm alive know I have no idea what people will think when they see a patient who died a few years ago...

Ty's POV

"How are you feeling sweetie?" The nurse said in her cheery tone as always. I had seen Seto duck under my bed and I was focused on keeping him hidden from the wandering eyes in the hospital.

"I'm good," I said, even though I knew of the lies she was feeding me... Why wouldn't you tell a patient they could die?! It's inhumane and cruel.

"I brought you some food, here's an apple and some jelly," she smiled and put the tray on the table.

"Thanks," I said and she left to attend to other patients.

Seto came out from under the bed, "Holy crap that was a close one," he sounded nervous and a little frightened.

"Tell me about it." I replied to the now living and loving sorcerer.
