Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Fanfiction: The One I'm Looking for

Draw 08

"I love you, Jaden."
"Alexis... I..."
"Wait a minute, Jaden. I don't need your answer yet."
"Huh? But-"
"I want you to consider it seriously, and if possible... I want you to tell us your answer at the same time when both Blair and I are present."
"... That's a big hurdle, Alexis."
"*Giggles* Oh come on, you need to at least be reliable and cool at a time like this."
"Well, I guess you're right. Fine, I will consider it seriously and I will tell you and Blair when I'm about to give you guys my answer."

"Alright, we'll be waiting."

Alexis returns to Obelisk Blue's Dorm, leaving Jaden behind.

"Consider it, then tell them the answer, huh..."

Jaden scratches his head while sighing.

"Easier to be said than be done."

He looks up to the starry sky.

"... I wonder if I can give them a satisfying answer."

Hiding behind the pillar, Blair clutches her chest.
She knows it all too well, Jaden has been setting his eyes on Alexis for quite a time.
Even without him telling her the answer she's pretty sure that Jaden would choose Alexis over her.

"Even though we're both girls... It's too unfair..."

She could feel her tears falling gently.
She couldn't hold her broken feelings, what can she do?
Even she herself knows that most first love would never end well.
But, before she knows it, a warm finger wiped her tears.

"Huh...?"

"..."

She looks up to find out who is the one that wiped her tears.

"Ja... Den...?"
"... Yeah."

Jaden was on his way back to the dorm, and there he found Blair who was crying silently behind a pillar. Jaden thought that she must've heard their conversation just now.
Looking at the sad Blair, Jaden felt a strange feeling of hurt deep inside his heart.
He then walked to Blair and wiped her tears.

"Why...?"
"When you see someone's sad, don't you feel the urge to comfort them?"

*Throbs*

Blair felt a pain in her heart.

'So he wasn't coming because he cares about me... He just came because he would do the same to anyone... Well, it's Jaden after all...'

Jaden wasn't sure of his own feeling, but he can be sure that this feeling is not just a pity.

"However, don't think that I'm doing this because I'm pitying you. Even I would never wipe the tears of someone I know this easily."
"Eh...?"
"I still can't give you any answer, but I only want you to know that you're-"

Jaden paused a little.
He understands that if he said it, there will be no turning back for him.
But he already had enough.
He will no longer lie to his own feeling and will charge forward.

"You're really important to me."
"..."

Blair is captivated by his words.
Soon after, her face is turning really red.

"W-W-What are you talking about to a girl!? You already have someone you love, right?! What will Alexis say if she were to-!"
"I haven't decided yet. Both of you hold a special place in my heart, I can't afford to hurt you two."
"Jaden..."

"Anyway that's it! I will consider it seriously so I hope that you will be prepared when the time comes!"

After saying that, Jaden storms into the dorm with a bright red face.

Blair can't help but giggles cutely.

"Jaden... Thank you..."

...

Jaden is laying down on his bed with his eyes open.
He couldn't sleep at all after what happened this evening.

"... Man, I never thought that it will be this hard to decide."

'Alexis, she loves duel more than anyone and would do anything to improve her dueling skills. Blair on the other hand, really loves romance that her deck is using a romance theme. To choose one from these two choices is something that I would never thought before.'

Jaden knows that he loves both of them, although he unconsciously loves Blair due to her being so close to him since her return.

'... I knew it, I can only do this.'

Jaden closes his eyes.
He has found his answer.

And this will end things once and for all.

"... Sent."

Tomorrow is the weekend, he decided to tell them the answer he has decided at the place where the three of them met.
