Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Anything For Master ❯ A Day Almost Forgotten ( Chapter 4 )

Anything for Master: Chapter 04

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or any of its characters. If I did, I'd own the oh-so-sexy Seto Kaiba, and I'd be one very happy girl.

Author's Note: No real excuse for not writing other than writer's block, hehe. Read and Review please. Oh yeah, when you get to the mirrors… have you ever been in front of a mirror that's reflecting another mirror? The reflection repeats itself as you look into the mirrors so it's as if you have a bunch of clones in there. I have several mirrors in my home and I just love that effect, hehehe.

Where was I going? I didn't know. He turned on the music loudly… too loud. I covered my ears, afraid they might burst, and just stared at him. He sped out of the lot and drove down the streets.

We stopped in front of large, black gates. Finally he turned off the music and pressed a button near the radio, causing the gates to open. Bringing my hands from my ears to my lap, I turned to look at him.

"Mas-"

"Shut up."

And so we drove in, following the winding black path as it went through beautiful gardens with some of the most beautiful flowers I had ever seen. I had almost forgotten who I was with until I felt his hand rest on my knee while he drove the rest of the path with the other. I turned to glance at him, partly scared to death at this sudden change and partly in curiosity as to what he was planning.

We stopped when we reached some sort of garage. He stepped out, went around, opened the door and pulled me out as well. As I reached for my briefcase, he said something about my leaving it. Obeying, I let him pull me wherever it was he was taking me.

After a few doors, we reached what seemed like the entrance hall to the home. I looked up in wonder, never having seen such a lavish place. He let me go and disappeared into a door. I looked around, nervous.

"Master? Maaaasssteeerr.." I called out, but received no response.

I examined my surroundings. Looking up, I saw a beautiful glass chandelier on the ceiling, lighting up the room beautifully. There were mirrors hanging, each reflecting the other. As I stepped in front of it, I saw a thousand clones of me behind me, each mimicking my movement. I smiled, then leaned in and taking a good look at myself. I noticed a small red spot coming from my hair. As I reached and dabbed my finger in it, I realized I was bleeding. I sighed at having failed to notice I'd hit my head in the car. Of course, with a lunatic of a lover kidnapping you, would you have noticed?

In front of me there was a staircase, it's railing having roses carved into the wood. It was beautiful, simply beautiful. I made my way up the spiral stairs, my mind going wild as I examined the patterns and detail that went into the home. I came to the second floor where cherry wood doors glistened in the hall light, windows showing the outside gardens and such.

I stopped at one window, crossing my arms and staring out. From this specific window, the flowers in the garden made a pattern, a swirl of the different colors coming together at the center. On the horizon, beyond the trees that lined the brick walls that limited the property, the sun was beginning to set. I stared in awe, squinting my eyes for a moment as I recognized that a lot of the flowers were roses, my absolute favorite.

"It's beautiful.." I whispered. Two arms wrapped around me and pulled me close.

"Do you really think so, precious?" a voice whispered in my ear. I tensed up for a second then answered.

"Yes, I really do…"

"Then I think your house hunting is done."

DIVIDER GOES HERE

I was a bit uneasy as the sunlight poured in through the unfamiliar window and onto my face. As I stirred a bit, I felt an arm around my waist tighten, keeping me there. Looking over my shoulder I saw a head of messy brown hair, long bangs covering closed eyes. I smiled, remembering what he'd told me the night before.

"My house hunting… what?"

"Your house hunting is done. You don't have to move out of town anymore… you can just live here with me."

It took a moment for everything to sink in.

"Master, I wasn't planning on leaving town, simply moving into a house…"

His grip around my waist tightened.

"BUT HERE IS FINE!" I quickly added just as he turned me around and pressed me against the wall next to the window. He smiled briefly before crushing his lips on mine, thus sealing the deal.

I crawled out from his grasp and looked around, noticing my clothes everywhere. I went to my jacket, which was closest, and put it on. Just as I put it on, I felt something vibrate in the pocket. Reaching into it, I took out my cell phone. The screen read UNKNOWN NUMBER. I made my way to the window, leaning against the wall as I looked out towards the garden, then answered it.

"Hello?"

"Hey hey!"

"Umm… Do I know you?"

"Aww did I call you to early? I'll give you a hint… in College we participated in wild, wild monkey s-"

"Ryou!!"

"Scrabble! Hahahaha!"

"Hahaha, you freak, how are you?!?"

"I knew you'd remember me! I am doing pretty good! I'm actually on a business trip in Domino and I remembered what today was…"

"Today?"

There was a pause.

"Today…you don't remember what day it is?"

"Err… no…."

"It's your birthday, silly!!"

It took a couple of seconds to sink in.

"My… b-birthday? You remembered?" I smiled brightly, slipping down against the wall and clutching the phone to my ear as I sat on the floor.

"Well, yeah, didn't your friends there remember?"

I laughed.

"I don't have much time for a social life, especially since I got a job at Kaiba Corp. right after college.. I mean, I do have a friend here but I don't think.."

"Well that settles it! I have some meetings today but at night I'm completely free… I'm taking you out for a night on the town!"

"Alright… just call me back and tell me where to meet you…"

His voice deepened for a moment.

"And wear those little bunny ears you had in college.."

"Sure thing, just for you, Bakura sweetie! Put Ryou back on.." I giggled like I used to in college, a memory that warmed me to the bones.

His voice changed to the lighter version.

"Sorry about that… So tonight?"

"Sure thing! God, how I missed the both of you.."

"Well I gotta go…okayIloveyoubuhbye!"

He hung up immediately.

"I love you too," I whispered as I hung up the phone.

Just as a warm memory of a late college night studying with the guy and his switching personalities on me flooded my mind, two feet appeared in front of me. I looked up his body, finally meeting his azure eyes. They were emotionless as they looked down at me. Just as I was about to get up, he grabbed my shoulders and pulled me up. I winced for a moment as he touched the bruise he'd left the day before.

"Meeting someone?" he asked, his tone so monotonous it scared me.

DejectedxAngel: I woke up in the writing mood this morning, and thus the update. Please, READ AND REVIEW! Thanks!
