“Talking”
~Thoughts~
---------------------------------------------------------
Kai sat at her table conversing with Joey and Isis as they worked on their before their classes after lunch. It had been a month since she started this going to Domino High and it was actually pretty pleasant. She had more friends, some only because of what happened with Te'a and they wanted protection, but none were as close as Isis and Joey. No one would be.
“I know! He's just mad because nobody shows him any affection.” Joey said and they all laughed. Kai fingered her silver charm bracelet. The first charm was an orange jeweled fish, almost like a clown fish except its stripes and fins were studded with diamonds. The tail was half orange jeweled and half diamond. The second was a diamond ballet shoe with a diamond bow on top and next to the shoe on the same chink was a diamond star. The third was a dark green jeweled frog with a purple jeweled ribbon on its head and purple jeweled cheeks. The fourth was a diamond Mary Jane shoe with two strips of sapphire at the end and next to it was a diamond heart. And the last was a red fish with a diamond face, diamond spots, bows, and fins, except for its tail which was red with two diamond spots on it.
“Isn't that very expensive looking?” Isis said looking at Kai playing with the bracelet.
“Yah, it is. It's the last thing my dad gave me before he died.” There was an awkward silence before Kai laughed. “It's ok…you don't have to be so morbid. It was quick and painless.” They smiled and nodded.
“Let's go outside. I can't stand sitting in here.” Isis said, standing up.
“Pale girl wants a bit of sun?” Joey joked and Isis jabbed at him with a plastic spoon. As they walked out, they saw Te'a leaning against the school wall, her groupies beside her. She had a cigarette in her mouth as they talked about something. A scrawny long, white haired boy walked nervously up to her.
”H-here's yo-your p-p-p-p-”
“Get it together Ryo; I don't have time for your stuttering.” She snatched the paper from his frail fingers and he looked down, shaking slightly.
“Who is that?” Kai said, balling her fist up.
“Who is that?” Kai said, balling her fist up.
“Dat's Ryo Bakura. It's no use tryin' ta go and stop dat. It's been going on fa years.” Joey said and Kai straightened her blazer.
“Well I think it's time to change.” Kai strutted over to them and snatched the paper away from Te'a.
“WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!” Kai ripped up the paper in her face and let it flutter to the ground.
“What do you think you're doing? Bullying helpless peers into doing your own school work?” Te'a glared at Ryo, who stood timid behind Kai.
“You're a snitch now?” Ryo shook his head violently.
“I-I d-d-d-d-don't even know wh-who she is!” Kai turned around and saluted him.
“I'm Kai Crenshaw, protector of the people who can't protect themselves.” Te'a scoffed.
“Not another one. Ryo, SCRAM!” Ryo ran off and Te'a crossed her arms. “Look, I hate to break it to you, but I run this school. I'm not afraid of you so…” Te'a backslapped her and leaned back against the wall. Joey grabbed Isis who was starting to run over there.
“She can handle this Isis.”
“So…don't act all big and bad with me.” Te'a said smugly. Kai nodded her head and sighed. She quickly snatched the cigarette from Te'a mouth and right hooked her.
“Let me break it to you, don't EVER touch me like you're crazy! Second, you should be afraid. And third…” Kai took the still burning cigarette and pushed it onto Te'a's cheek. She let out a loud wail as Kai dropped the cigarette to the ground. “Cigarettes really take a toll on your looks.” Kai waltzed off as Te'a screeched and kicked the cigarette.
“You're GONNA PAY FOR THIS!”
~After school~
“See ya Isis. Bye Joey.” Kai waved by to them in the middle of the hall. Te'a looked cautiously around a set of lockers and nodded to a group of people. A girl walked up to Kai, turning her away from the direction of Te'a. The group behind Te'a made sure everyone was clear of that hall and poured water all across the hall. They ran back to where Te'a was standing, one girl slipping slightly. The girl talking to Kai walked off and one girl stepped out from behind the lockers and walked carefully to the other side of the water and to the door.

The girl talking to Kai walked off and one girl stepped out from behind the lockers and walked carefully to the other side of the water and to the door.
“Hey Isis! Come here!” Kai walked towards her at a steady pace.
“Yah? What's the prob-” Kai slipped on the slippery floor, feeling her body fly up in the air and she braced herself for the hard fall to come. But it didn't. Strong hands gripped her around her waist and swooped her up her legs, firm hands gripping her thighs. Her hands immediately reached for the person's shoulders and gripped the person's shoulder. She looked up to see Seto standing there, her in his arms. He gave her a look that for the first time she saw emotion other than being snobby or cold. He looked amused, slightly curious and what baffled Kai the most, he looked concerned. Kai looked down as Seto stepped over the water and out the door. Te'a came out from behind the lockers and jumped up and down angrily.
“WHERE DID HE COME FROM!?” She turned heatedly towards the others. “I TOLD you to make sure everyone was GONE!” One girl responded quietly.
“We did Te'a….he…must've came back in from the other side of the building!” Te'a let out a loud, frustrated sigh and marched towards the door where Seto had exited with Kai still in his arms.
“Te'a the floors still-” A loud thump on the floor interrupted her along with a loud cry of pain from Te'a.
“WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME!?! COME HELP ME!” The girls crept off the other way quietly. “Don't you DARE WALK AWAY! I CAN'T GET UP!” Seto stopped at the bottom of the steps and looked at her.
“How do you get home?”
“I…walk...home.” He nodded and kept walking.
“I'll take you home them.” Kai started to shift around and his grip tightened.
“No, that is not necessary. I mean it's already enough that you're holding me and people are still here!” Seto gave a raised eyebrow as people stood there and gawked.
“I don't really think you're capable of walking home, especially alone.”
“Excuse me? I am perfectly capable of walking home alone.” Seto's face became stony.
“I'll give you a test. If you can walk right when I put you down then, I'll let you walk home; if you can't…then I'm taking you home.” He let Kai slip from his grasp and she stepped on her feet wobbly. Seto crossed his arms as she started to walk off. She stumbled slightly, her legs still weak from being in the grasp of Seto, and then stopped. She stood up straight and walked perfectly. She turned back to him smugly.
“See?” She shimmed her shoulders and started walking again, tripping over a crack and tumbling face first on the concrete. Seto sighed and shook his head.
“I see a lot of things…” Kai's vision came back to her after what seemed like a few seconds, but actually turned out to be 15 minuets. Her vision was still blurry but she could make out a pale, silent figure above her. Her green eyes focused on two cerulean ones and she blinked away the last of the blurriness.
“What happened?”
“You thought you could walk when I said that you couldn't. You did for a moment. I actually thought you'd prove me wrong, but you didn't. You tripped and fell and hit your head.” His expression show little emotion but his voice was amused.
“Oh yeah…” She sat up to find she was in a soft bed with black pillows under her. The comforter was almost black….in fact everything in the room was black except for the extremely white walls and one was wooden with handles, she decided that was the closet since those doors were larger than the other wooden doors on the opposite side of the room. “Where am I?”
“My house. I don't know where you live so I had to wait till you woke up. No I wasn't going to leave you there for some perv to come and weird things to you and No I wasn't going to wait there with you. I don't really like publicity on things that can start rumors.” Kai scoffed.
“As if the hundreds of students who were already outside haven't already started any. If you would've put me down right when we came out of the school, I would've been fine.”
“If you would've not been stubborn and just taken the ride home gratefully, you wouldn't be in my bed.” Kai gasped she stumbled out of his bed.
“I'm in YOUR bed?! The one you sleep in every night?”
“I believe that's a purpose of a bed.” Seto said, not letting his confusion show. “Are you trying to imply something?”
“I mean I don't know what you do!” Seto crossed his arms and sat back in his chair.
“Are you trying to imply that you think I'm a manwhore?” She crossed her arms.
“No…I'm just-” She stopped when she realized something. No scratchy skirt, no tight vest or hot socks. She looked down to see she was in a grey t-shirt with a green and blue cassette on it that stopped a couple of centimeters below her belly button and shorts that were rolled over. “Where's my clothes?” Seto rolled his eyes.
“Don't start to do that freak out thing, I hate that.” She shook slightly, not sure what to do with her arms and body.
“You expect me not to be freaked out or feel awkward knowing that you saw my body!” Seto got up and opened the closet door. Her clothes were folded neatly on a shelf which he jerked off viciously and threw it on the bed.
“There's your clothes!” He walked stiffly towards the door before turning around. “And for your information, I didn't change you, my maids did. Sorry for trying to make your stay little bit more comfortable.” He slammed the door and Kai sighed frustrated, running her fingers through her hair. Seto's limo driver dropped her off at home a little while later. She walked through the door and her mother stared at her shocked.
“Sweetie, it's late! Come sit down with me in the living room. We have something we should…um…talk about.” Kai followed her mom into the living room and jumped as she saw a white hair man sitting on her couch. She breathed in heavily and put on a smile, hoping her reaction didn't show. His hair was down to his shoulders, his hair covering the right side of his face. He wore a pinkish maroon colored suit with a wine glass in his hand.
“Mom, who is this?” Kai said smiling fallaciously.
“Sweetie this is Pegasus, my boss and…my boyfriend.”
