Don't leave me
By cheerful angel57
A/N: Hello! I wrote this fic way before and this was my first SetoXSerenity fic. And if you're looking for disclaimers, it's down there... More or less, I altered their ages... the gang aren't frosh anymore, in here they're seniors in high school. Well, maybe except for Mokuba. This is the full edited version, with added lines, deleted lines and modified stuff! Okay, here goes!!!
Full Summary: SetoXSerenity! Seto and Serenity are now an item, and nothing is about to split them apart! But what happens when Seto's crazy Uncle Sam calls him and tells him about a business deal he can't miss? If Seto agrees to this, he will move to the States with his brother and start his life over again. But how can he leave Serenity behind? Can he tell her that he truly loves her?
A little disclaimer...
Cheerful angel: Hey guys!!!
Joey: Oh man! Don't tell me it's another crazy fic writer!!! Give me some back up, Tristan!!!
Tristan: (Comes over to Joey) Are you going nuts, Joey? It's just a little girl!
Cheerful angel: I resent that. I am a teen, ya know.
Joey: Whatever. Yug! Where'd you come from? (Looks at Yugi as he comes in)
Yugi: Tell me about it... I've just been outside, being thrashed by my fans... Anyway, I thought there's a meeting here.
Cheerful angel (CA): Yup, it's a rendezvous. I asked you to come here because fans will come and thrash you guys.
Joey: What the hell is she talking about?
C.A.: Well, for one thing, I soundproofed the room so that they won't hear us... and a rendezvous is a secret meeting. You can really learn lots of things in English class... Anyway, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I am not going to write the fic about you.
Joey: Then why are you here and who are you going to put in your story?
Tristan: Joey's right! You should do a fic about us! Why'd you call us here anyway if we aren't going to be part of your fic?
C.A.: I'm doing a Seto and Serenity fic... and I asked you to be here because I want you guys to do the disclaimers. That means the main spotlight is on Kaiba and Serenity, but you guys are going to appear only in disclaimers. Sorry to disappoint you, but you guys more of belong in humor fics.
Kaiba: Who the hell called us here??? I had an important meeting at Kaiba Corp., you know!!! (Walks in with Mokuba, Serenity and Tea)
Serenity: And I've been looking all around for you, Joey! You were here all along?
Tea: I had an important appointment but anyway I am here now.
C.A.: And our whole cast is here! Yup, we can start now!
Joey: Serenity, you are so not going to believe who is in this fic with you.
C.A.: I don't have to repeat it again, it's SetoXSerenity.
Joey: YOU ARE NOT PAIRING MY SISTER UP WITH THAT LOSER!!!
Kaiba: I heard that, mutt! You are in this damn story too??? And who says that I am going to be paired up with the mutt's sister???
C.A.: As a matter of fact, you are going to be paired up with her. So you guys do not need to fight. So can you guys do the disclaimers for me?
Tristan: Why should we??? The last time I heard, we were free humans.
C.A.: You will follow me 'cause I am directing this fic... plus, I don't think you respond well to blackmail, do you???
Tristan: What kind of blackmail?
C.A.: I can tell everyone that you wear pink underwear... (Author's note: I don't really know if that's true... but I'm just using it in this fic.)
Tristan: How did YOU know that???
C.A.: I have my sources... (Smiles evilly)
Yugi: Really, do you wear pink underwear??
Joey: Chill out, dude! PINK UNDERWEAR???
Tristan: (Turns red) It was a dare from my classmate... God, I am so going to kill him!!! He said no one will ever know!!!
C.A.: Now will you do the disclaimers for me pretty please? Please make it creative...
Tristan: Alright! FINE! She does not own Yu-gi-Oh! It belongs to Kazuki Takahashi.
C.A.: Thanks Tristan! That was all I needed. Time for the fic!!!
Chapter 1-The news
KAIBA MANSION...
Seto Kaiba was typing like mad on his laptop. He was trying to blast off his office work so that it would be ready for tomorrow. He always liked coming prepared.
'Okay, nothing to bother me now... no mutt, no Yugi and his gang...' he thought, about to type up the last line when the phone rang.
"Damn!" he swore and picked up the receiver, in a totally bad mood.
"Hello? Kaiba residence" he practically shouted to the phone.
"Seto! Do you have a seizure or something?" said the voice on the other line.
"N-no." Kaiba was taken by surprise. 'Don't tell me it's...' he thought, hoping this was a dream.
"Don't you dare drop the phone like you did last time. This is your Uncle Sam, and I am calling for a very important reason." Said the man on the other line.
Kaiba's worse fears were confirmed. It was his crazy, insane uncle.
"I am going to offer you a once-in-a-lifetime chance here in New York. See, there is this whole piece of bare land that you can build Kaiba Land. I've heard about that ridiculous amusement park of yours."
Kaiba gritted his teeth. "IT IS NOT RIDICULOUS! FOR YOUR INFORMATION, I HAVE WORKED TO MY LIFE'S LIMITS JUST TO BUILD KAIBA LAND ALL OVER THE WORLD!" His voice could be heard up to the whole premises.
His uncle LAUGHED, of all the reactions he was expecting. Laughed like it was nothing.
"WHAT'S SO FUNNY???" Kaiba shouted.
"Honestly Seto, you should control that nasty temper of yours."
Kaiba was even angrier. He wanted to yell into the phone that it was his uncle's blasted brother Gozaburo who taught him how to be like that. It was the truth after all.
"If you've just called to tell me that," Kaiba said angrily, "then you're wasting your money. Shut up and goodbye." He said.
"Wait, Seto! I am offering you this chance! Your chance to realize that dream of yours... I mean, think about it!"
Kaiba paused for a moment. Yeah, that was a good business opportunity for him.
"Whatever. I'll think about it." He hissed into the phone.
"You can migrate here and build Kaiba Land, and I can help you with my profits in my business. I can just pay for your plane ticket and for your apartment. What do you say? I want a straight yes or no."
Kaiba didn't know what to do. If he said no, his uncle would bug him about it forever, and he would be missing a big chance. If he said yes, he had nothing to lose... (At least that's what he thought.)
"Okay, fine! I'll go." He said finally.
"That's the boy I know, Seto. Doesn't miss a perfectly good opportunity. I will call you for more news."
After that, Kaiba slammed the phone back to its place. So much for the call...
He took out his organizer to check out his schedule.
'Oh SHIT! I totally forgot!!! I have a date with Serenity tonight! How can I tell her about the moving thing???' he thought frantically.
He quickly told his secretary to get ready his best tuxedo.
Boy, was Seto in a big dilemma.
"How does this look on me?"
"It's perfect. It looks really good on you, Ser," said her friend, Tea.
"Thanks." Serenity said. She and Tea were on a shopping spree because she had a special date with her boyfriend, Seto Kaiba. She couldn't believe that she was actually dating him at first but now she learned to accept it because she was in love with him. True, he is her brother's enemy, but nevertheless Joey should accept her decision.
She was looking for a nice outfit to wear to their date tonight because it was the anniversary of when they first had a date. They had been dating for one whole year, and she wanted it to be special for the both of them.
"I don't know if I like it," she said, giving a spin and looking at the mirror. She had on a dress with spaghetti straps and fitted tightly around her body.
"I don't know about you, but I like it. It's perfect!" Tea exclaimed, gazing at Serenity in awe.
"Okay, okay, I'll get it," Serenity said, finally persuaded by Tea.
She went back into the dressing room to change to her normal clothes.
After that she emerged from the room and Tea took the dress from her.
"Whoah, girl! That's a lot!" Tea exclaimed, looking at the price tag.
"Actually, that's the amount I expected to spend." She paid for it at the counter moments later.
"I still can't believe you've going out with Kaiba for a whole year. I mean, THE Seto Kaiba? Last time I checked, he was this super rude lunatic who cares about nothing but Duel Monsters, Kaiba Corp. and his brother." Tea said.
"Yeah, I couldn't believe it at first, but I really think I am doing the right thing." Serenity replied.
They started on their way out of the mall.
"What about you, Tea? Anybody you like in particular?" Serenity asked.
"Yeah, I guess so..." Tea admitted slowly.
Serenity waited for her friend to continue.
"Well, you should swear you won't tell. I like Yami Yugi." She admitted.
"Well, that's okay, he's our friend anyway. And he's kind of cute, in some way." Serenity replied.
"But that's exactly the problem!!! It's embarrassing to like your friend in that way. I mean, like, he is Yugi's other self! I can't help feeling that he is still a part of Yugi." Tea contradicted.
"Who knows? Maybe he likes you in the same way, then it won't be embarrassing." Serenity said hopefully.
They were finally outside the mall. Tea looked at her watch. "Whoops, gotta run, my folks will miss me. See ya, Serenity! Good luck on your date!" she shouted, hurrying towards the nearest bus.
"See ya! Thanks for coming with me!" Serenity shouted after her.
A/N: This is where chapter 1 ends... I won't say no more there. Well? Good, bad or definitely trash can? Please review!
And now for a little additional portion:
Joey: Tell me, why does my sister have to go out with Mr. Moneybags?
C.A.: Yup! Exactly the idea Joey!
Joey: Not before I can stop it!
C.A.: No way are you interfering in this Joey!!!
Joey: But that loser is NOT going out with Serenity, EVER!!!
Kaiba: What did you say, you loser mutt???
Joey: That you're a big asshole!
Kaiba: How dare you, you son of a bitch!
C.A.: I shouldn't have invited Joey... crap it!
(Kaiba and Joey start a fight and Serenity tries to stop them)
YGO Maniac: What's all the racket?
C.A.: Hey there, YGO Maniac! What's up?
YGO Maniac: Hey, is that actually Yami Yugi?
C.A.: Yup! Hey, Yami, this is my brother YGO Maniac! He's a big fan of yours!
Yami Yugi: That's cool! How about a duel?
YGO Maniac: SURE!!! Let's take it here!
C.A.: I told you, Yami! NOT HERE! YOU'RE GONNA CREATE AN EXPLOSION WITH THAT DARK GAME OF YOURS!
Hmph. Oh well... since Yami doesn't want to listen to me. I'll just say the goodbyes for now. But I'll be back for the next chapter, don't worry!
