Chapter 5: Welcoming Strangersand Memories

"What the heck are you doing in here?!" I asked the stranger on my couch. Well, it really was a kid.

"I don't know really, I was walking down a hall, and a hole opened up and I fell into it. Then I woke up in someone's closet, `must have been my closet.' so I started to get curious and explore where I was. And that was when she," the kid pointed at my maid, Ana. "found me."

"Oh I see, listen will you stay here, I need to go get someone."

"Um...sure...it's not like I have to go anywhere." I ran out the room and headed towards my funky-looking-shop-of-a-room. I ran right into the door thinking it would open. "Crap! That always happens. I swear I need to install some automatic doors so it will open for me!" As I said this the door opened, Joey was standing there. As I was rubbing my head, he burst out laughing, "HAHAHAHAHA!!! Guess what everyone I know what the bang on the door was! Tamra ran into the door!" He was still laughing as I pushed the rest of the door open. I walked inside. Joey was taking steps backwards, trying to slow his laughter.

"Shut up JOEY or else you'll fine yourself huddling in a corner, you little mutt!!!" I yelled at him will all my might as I pushed him lightly.

"I like the way the girl talks." I looked away from Joey and turned around to see Seto standing by the doorway. I quickly remembered what I came here to do.

"Come with me." I ran towards Seto and grabbed his hand. "All of you stay here until further notice." I ran out the door still holding Seto's hand.

"What are YOU doing?!" I still held his hand, dragging him with me towards the sitting room.

"I believe that you are going to thank me for this!" I shouted as we ran down the hall to the room. I stopped sliding a bit; of course I was still in my slippers. "Seto stay here. I need to get something. And please close your eyes.

"What?! NO." his cold-rough voice escaped his lips. "I don't know what this is about, but I assure you, that-"

"Ya, ya, ya. Whatever, now close your eyes before I shove a stick up them, and you'll never be able to see again!!" I was wondering if this threat would work.

"Is that a threat?"

"You bet it is." I looked him straight in the eyes. `For goodness sake, just close them!!!' I shouted this in my head knowing that he can't hear me.

"Do your worst."

"Fine if you insist." Instead of getting a stick or something I walked towards him. We were still in the hallway, away from the opening of the sitting room. I stood in front of him. `Holy cow what am I doing? Should I poke him in eyes and see if he'll close them?' I stood still in front of his body. I could feel his heat. `hmm….' I was still thinking. I soon looked up in his eyes and a solid shiver went up my back. I slowly lifted up my right hand and cupped his chin. "I said close them." I was staring into his eyes. He was staring back. `What the heck is happening to me? It's like I can't control my actions.' I brought his face closer to mine. His eyes widened with surprise. As I brought his face closer, his eyes left the emptiness and walked into calmness. `Just like they should be.' I brought his lips to meat mine. The warmness of it all made me lean into him; my eyes fluttered closed, while his did the same. I felt something creep up my back, which made me shiver again. His hands were closing around my backside. I put both of my hands around his neck to enjoy the moment that would soon end in a couple of seconds.

I quickly opened my eyes to see if his eyes were still closed. With my left hand, I lifted it and brought it threw his hair. I then moved it down his neck and up his ear to the side of his face. I then covered his eyes with my hand and broke us apart. "I told you to shut your eyes." I took a step back. `Why did I stop it? Here I am with the sexiest guy in the world and I stopped the kiss I started!! Why?!'

"Well let me tell you, you have a very unique way of telling people of what they should do." I still had my hand over his eyes.

"I have my ways and reasons. Now please don't look. I really think you are gonna like what you are gonna see. Just keep them closed alright?"

"Fine." The coldness slowly crept back into his voice. `hmmm..I guess that he doesn't let his sensitive side be shown that often or that long. That definitely will change now that I am around.' I took another step back. "When I take my hand off, you will have your eyes closed tightly shut, alright?" I slowly took my hand off. His eyes were open. "Oh my gosh! I said close them!"

"Or what? You are going to poke my eyes out again?!" He said this with a smirk.

"Please just shut them." I looked at him with puppy dog eyes…`I actually think this is working.' He took one look at me and shut his eyes. "Perfect. Now wait here." I ran into the sitting room. I grabbed the kids arm. "Don't be afraid. I have a surprise in the other room. Ok?" I looked down at the kid. He nodded a little not sure if can trust me. "It's alright. I promise I won't hurt you...now just relax." I put my hand over the kid's eyes just like I did to Seto and pulled his arm to indicate to walk. I walked him into the hallway. I looked up at Seto and his eyes were still closed. I whispered into the kid's ears. "Open them when I say you can." The kid nodded. I took my hand off and walked up to Seto. I whispered in his ear the exact words I said to the little kid. I made sure both of them faced each other. I stood in the middle of them both, but a little to the side. "Ok...You can open them NOW!" I watched both of them open their eyes.

"Big BROTHER!!!"

"Mokuba!" Mokuba ran towards Seto as he dropped to his knees so he could hug him. Mokuba ran into Seto's open arms and they embraced each other. A memory suddenly struck me like a lightening bolt. A tear started to flow down my cheek. I quickly wiped it off and took a step towards the store-room-thingy. I took another step and tears started to flow down my left cheek. There goes one, wipe. Two, wipe. I started to walk faster. Something grabbed my arm.

"Where are you going?" A gentle voice entered my ears. I turned around to expect Mokuba, but Seto was the one holding my arm.

~Seto's POV~

I looked up from my embrace with Mokuba. Tamra was slowly making her way past me. I let go of Mokuba gently and grabbed Tamra before she completely walked away.

"Where are you going?" I said this with the most compassion I have ever said to anyone in my life besides Mokuba. I turned her around, only to see Tamra's moist face looking into mine. `What is going on? She mysteriously reunites me with my brother, and now she is walking away with tears on her face. It was only a hug. Maybe it was the kiss I had with her earlier.' "Is something wrong?"

I looked her in the eyes. She tried to look at me the best she could but I could tell she was fighting a battle with her emotions. "N-n-no nothing is wrong….just brought up some family memories……" She pulled her arm out of my light grasp. She started to walk away, but it wasn't towards the room with all her and Mokuba's friends. She was heading towards the stairs. I stood there not moving. Mokuba walked up beside me.

"What is wrong with her? Is everything alright?"

"I am not sure Mokuba. But I am going to find out." I paused for a second watching Tamra, her pace turn into a run towards the stairs and up them. "Mokuba, down the hall," I pointed in the direction he should go. "there is a door, it should be open. In there is Yugi and his idiotic friends. Go in there and answer all their questions if they have any. After that, look for a swimsuit, shirt, and a pair of shorts...if you don't get what I am telling you; ask anyone in there what do. Ok?" He looked at me and nodded. He started to walk in the direction I pointed. I glanced one more time at him and back at the now empty stairs. `I don't know what it is, but something is telling me to go after her.' I walked toward the stairs. My pace got quicker with every step. I ran up the stairs and head towards the second staircase. I followed the hall and towards Tamra's room. I came to the door, it was wide open. I looked inside and she was on her knees, in a sitting position looking out the window with a picture of some kind in her hand.

~Tamra's POV/reader's POV~

After I reached my room the tears came freely. They were flowing down my cheek like a river. After a couple of seconds, I was able to slow them down. I walked over to my desk and picked up a picture that was on it. I walked over to the window. (The window is from ceiling to floor. The bed is on the other side of the room. Are you getting it? If not just make up something. Use your imagination for once.jk ) My knees buckled and I fell on them. Pain surged up through my legs. It quickly went away as fast as it came. My calves were by my thighs. (Do you get what I am saying? If not, just imagine me sitting down on the floor.) My tears were slow enough for me to wipe each one away gradually. I looked down at the picture. "I am sorry Max. I am sorry I couldn't save you." I looked down at my brother's picture. He and I were smiling. Each of us were standing in front of my parents. They had their hands on each of our shoulders. I was about 14 years old. My blond hair was the same length as it was now. My brother's hair was brown. He almost looked like a Hawaiian, because he played outside so much. He was the darkest in the family. Sure I was tan, but not as tan as him. His brown eyes stared at me through the picture. "Why? Why couldn't I save you?" I was unaware of the eyes on the back of my neck. I was so lost in my emotions and tears I didn't feel or notice something wrap around me.

"It's ok….just let everything out. If you want to talk about it, you can tell me anything." I looked up into sea-blue eyes that were calm as the ocean in the daytime. Seto was hugging me and moving side to side as if he was a rocking chair. I couldn't help but lean into him and close my eyes.

"We used to be one big happy family until the accident." I opened my eyes and looked into Seto's. `I can't hold this in any longer. I am going to tell him everything.' I looked out the window and began my story.
