Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Fallen Angel ❯ Surprise Special ( Chapter 16 )

WoW I'm on the 16th chapter....isn't everyone excited? With the whole last chapter thing, I hope you are. I still haven't figured out the ending, but I have a feeling that it's quite a few chapters away, seeing as I haven't gotten two things to happen. And we haven't gone international...yet. : )

Disclaimer~When hell freezes over, I'll own Yugioh...I checked, and it's still bloody hot there.

Last Time~

Third runner up~not them.

Second runner up~not them again.

First runner up~not their lucky day.

Tea figured it was hopeless. She felt something on her neck. He was holding both her shaking hands, and they were so close, she could feel him breathing, and his heart beat. "You shouldn't give up. Weren't you always the one to tell the entire world that, even if they weren't listening, or didn't care?"

"You're right." Tea suddenly felt a lot of confidence.

The winners were announced. No one said a single word.

Chapter 16~ Surprise Special!

*^*^*^*^*^

Tea's p.o.v.

Someone screamed. Layna, maybe. Hell, who am I kidding? I have no idea who it was. I felt his arms tighten around me, and let me tell you, I really wanted to kiss him with every ounce of being in me. I turned around, facing him, and gave him the biggest hug in all of history. I didn't care who was looking, and apparently he didn't either. He took the rose out of my hand.

**Normal p.o.v.**

"Go out there. I'll hold it for you."

"You know what Seto Kaiba," Tea started, looking him in the eye.

"What?"

"I hate it when you're right about me."

"Now if I was right about everything," He said, to himself.

"What was that?" She questioned.

"Go get your friggen trophy." He said, shoving her to the exit, with the rest of the girls. Mokuba stood behind him.

"I heard that."

"Shut up. Aren't you their manager?" He said, with a smirk. Mokuba scurried out there, standing at Tea's side. She took the huge trophy, for the entire team, and gave it to Mokuba. Tea gave Chloe a look, and they gave their individual trophies to one of the other girls. Then,(an:I'm having fun picturing this) they each took one of the boy's legs and put him up on their shoulders. He yelled in delight and excitement and held the trophy up over his head. Tea smiled. She loved that boy so much. Then there was his brother.

Jesus Christ, that boy was fine.

*^*^*^*^*^

It was about four thirty in the afternoon when they arrived back at the mansion. Tea had been the last to leave, and Mokuba was now sitting in the backseat, keeping the trophy safe. She was more excited than usual. She kept looking at Seto. If he noticed, he didn't say anything. She noticed how it was harder and harder to keep herself away from him. She admitted it to Mokuba, but in all reality, she was a traditional type of girl in the beginning of a relationship. He had to make the first move. She was so in love, it was crazy. More than crazy. But she would not admit a thing. He did say all that shit while he was drunk, but she knew that unless he was sober, it was all obselete.

Kaiba pulled into the mansion. Mokuba got out, carting the oversized prize. Tea was about to exit, when Kaiba grabbed her by the hand. "Not so fast." He said, meeting her confused gaze. He got out and took out a hankerchief. Tea had long since ditched the robe over the top of the outfit.

"What are you doing?"

"Blindfolding you."

"Oh. WHAT?" Tea looked at him. "Are you crazy?"

"Is that a retorical question?"

"Oh yeah, don't answer that. But, why?"

"Do you trust me?" He asked.

"I suppose." She looked at him. "Give me a second. I have to get these damned sandals on. This pavement is hot."

"You look pretty hot, but no one says anything. I'll take care of it, just turn around."

"Seto Kaiba, since when do you flirt with girls?"

"I don't usually, you just got lucky." He tied the cloth around her eyes. "Can you see anything?"

"No."

"Good."

"Hey Seto?"

"Yes?" He asked, shutting the door for her.

"My feet are burning up."

"You're a baby."

"Is that a problem?"

Kaiba said nothing. Tea, being unable to see nearly screamed at being picked up."It's just me," He said, softly, into her ear, uncharacteristically. She was in his arms, bridal style. She wrapped her arms around his neck. Her head rested on his shoulder. He blushed slightly. He set her down on the cool marble steps right before the door. He opened it for her, holding one of her hands.

"What is this all about?" She asked, again.

"Do you think I'd let your birthday go entirely unnoticed?" He asked in a joking matter. He untied the blindfold.

"SURPRISE!!!" An entire chorus of voices yelled, Mokuba's being the loudest.

"Damn you, Seto Kaiba. Damn you." She said, meeting his eyes. She hugged him tightly. "You planned this. I hate you."

She felt him flinch. "Seto, I'm kidding. You're the best." She kissed him on the cheek.

"You deserve it." She clung to him for a few moments, enjoying his presence. Then she let go. Her blue eyes scanned the room. He'd outdone himself. Again. For her.

*^*^*^*^*^

The party had ended hours ago. Tea stood was sitting outside. It was late. Ten, to be exact. The garden, roses of every color, surrounded her, stars were above her, and a fountain somewhere to her left gave a soft melody. She was alone. She still couldn't believe it. Kaiba had known it was her birthday without her telling him, and without her knowing, he'd planned her a party.

After all she'd been through and how much she made him suffer, he still did this for her. Why? She had no idea. There was a one percent chance...that..well no, it wouldn't happen. Fairy Tales never came true. She knew that all too well.

"Thinking?" A voice came, from behind her. A screen door shut.

"I was." She responded, poking fun at him.

"May I enquire what kind of thought takes up all your time?"

"I can't tell you that." Her gaze was sent down onto white roses.

"Why not?"

"I just can't." She paused, giving herself a moment to reflect on the past few months.

"Now what?" He asked.

"Are you a mind reader or something?"

"If I was, I wouldn't be asking." She felt his breathing on her neck, signalizing the closeness of him to her. "Tell me."

"I guess it's just wierd."

"What?"

"A year ago, I thought that you hate me, and now..."

"Considering the possibilities that we'd be this close to be one in a million, I'd guess that you'd be right. But I am happy that we are."

"Hold on. Did you just say that you were happy? I might have a heart attack." She clumsily fell backward, into him, purposely. He grabbed her, and held her into him. Silence gripped the two.

"Hey Seto, can I ask you a question?"

"Of course."

"You remember that incident the day of the party?"

"Yes." His heart began to pump faster, an involuntary function. It was an uneasy feeling.

"Do you remember what happened?"

Not this question, his subconsious screamed. He took a deep breath. "Some," he said.

"Like what?"

"Since when were we playing twenty questions?"

"I'm sorry." She looked down again.

"I know you were just curious. You want the truth."

"Yeah."

"I don't know everything. I remember them making me drink until the point of not caring so long as the whiskey kept coming. After that, nothing."

"Oh."

"Why? Is there something you aren't telling me?"

"No. I was just wondering."

"I know I did something. Don't lie to me. I want to know what I said and did."

"You said a lot of things. How you hated sluts like me, for starters."

"Oh God. Tea I didn't mean it." He ran a hand through his hair, flustered. "I was drunk. God I'm sorry."

"Seto. Chill. I know you were drunk. Ipologies aren't a word in your dictionary. At least I thought that." Her eyes met him. "Don't be sorry. I couldn't be mad at you. Not for long I--"

"Do me a favor."

"What?"

"Shut up."

Tea never expected this.

Next year I won't ask for a birthday present. This freaking rocks!

Seto Kaiba kisses with the fire of hell itself.
