"Serenity it's been four and a half years since we started dating. And I don't think you know how happy I am that you got the guts to ask me out."
They both laughed a little knowing they wouldn't disturb anybody. Seto had taken her out to a fancy restaurant-like usual-and took a private booth-like usual.
Serenity remembered that day very well. It had taken her weeks to gather her courage and ask him. But it went exactly how she wanted it too.
Domino High.
January 10th, 2000
4:00
Serenity sat under a tree at Domino High. She was waiting for her brother and friends to leave the school and was doing some homework while waiting.
After a moment she got the feeling that some one was watching her. She turned around to find that Seto Kaiba was walking towards her. She started blushing madly because he was her crush major. He sat next to her and asked if it was alright to sit there. She nodded in response.
'Well now as good as any time right Ren." Serenity thought. She sighed and turned to Seto.
"Ummmm...... Mr.Kaiba may I ask you something?"
"Sure Wheeler."
She sighed again knowing how most likely this was going to turn out. Her being humiliated and Kaiba laughing. But she took the chance any way.
"I was wondering if you had time sometime you and I could go some where."
"You're asking me on a date?"
"Ummmm....yeah."
He looked at her and smiled. Not his smirk but a real smile. "Sure."
They started talking about the details when Joey walked up. "Could have been better timing." Serenity said to Seto.
"Kaiba! Get away from my sista!"
Serenity started laughing again and Seto looked at her confused.
"What's so funny Ren?"
"Huh? Oh I was just thinking about the first date you and I had."
He started laughing too. "Ya know I was seriously thinking about calling the cops on the Mu-your brother, Taylor and Devlin."
Serenity smiled at him gratefully at not calling her brother a name. About two months ago she asked him to stop. He does try but habits are hard to break.
"Well at least they got over it."
"Ya but it took them how long? A year."
"Your right."
"I'm always right."
She laughed quietly and began to eat again.
"Serenity I love you."
She looked up at him. And said "I love you too Seto."
She sounded a bit confused at his sudden outburst of affection.
Before she knew he had gotten up and started to walk over to her. She looked at him as he knelt beside her. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box. It took Serenity awhile to put together all that was happening before her but she put it all together and came up with the only conclusion.
Seto sighed and looked up her. "Serenity I love you more than anything in this world. I would easily die for you so you could be happy. Before I knew you I was coldhearted and a jerk. Some people would say I still am, but I think I have changed and that because of you. What I wish is that you would accept my hand in marriage and be my wife."
By this time Serenity was speechless to say anything so all she did was nod. She got up and hugged him.
Seto unwrapped himself from his now fiancé and pulled out the ring to put it on her hand. It was a ring any girl would be jealous of. But Serenity had come used to beautiful and expensive gifts from Seto. That's just one of the perks of dating a millionaire.
"Oh Seto I love you."
She hugged him and suddenly leaped apart when some one burst into the room.
"Well Mr.Kaiba I finally found you."
The man turned his head towards Serenity and asked. "Ohh well she's pretty. What's her name?"
Seto noticed the gun in his hand and heard some commotion from the room outside. 'Oh great another man obsessed with getting rich or even with me. "Who she is, is none of your business."
Serenity then wrapped her arms around his left and moved closed to him. He looked down at her and used his right arm to hold her shoulder to comfort her.
"Well I do know that she is your new Fiancée, and it's evident that you have been dating this girl named Serenity so I think that must be you. Why you are beautiful aren't you?" He pointed to their seats and said "Sit!" Seto directed Serenity to her seat and lowered her down. He bent down to kiss her on her forehead and whispered "everything will be fine." He then walked over to his side of the table and sat.
"Well three is just such a lonely number why don't I welcome some more people in here."
He walked over to the door and called for two more guys to come in here. Immediately two men walked in and then he closed the door.
"Well you might wonder who I am and what I want. So I'll tell you. My name is Joshua. That's Eric and the other is Michael. What we want is our jobs back."
"What are you talking about? I haven't fired anyone for months."
"Well we don't work for you really. We used to work for Graphic Industries. And well, until you came and showed them that we 'weren't needed' and convinced our boss to fire us."
"Yeah? So what? What can I do? Like you said I'm not your boss. So coming to me will do nothing. Honestly you're more idiotic than the Mu----a monkey."
He looked over to Serenity and she smiled at him.
"You see. You have a weak spot. And we know what that is." Seto eyes widened as he watched what happened. Joshua indicated for Michael to take Serenity. He saw Serenity start to shake. Michael took her arm and started to drag her away from the table. Seto stood up and death glared Joshua.
Michael put his gun to Serenity head and then he talked. "So what's it gonna be Kaiba? Will you give us our jobs back?"
"Look I told you that I can't do that. I have no control over the dealings of Graphic industries."
"Well I'm sorry to hear that. I'm afraid then your beautiful new fiancé will be joining us for the next three days. You have that long to make us happy. If not, well, you'll be a bachelor again."
He heard Serenity whimper and stare at him pleadingly. 'I'm so sorry' he mouthed to her.
"Bye Mister Kaiba."
Joshua and Eric walked out of the door and Michael slowly followed smirking at Seto as he went. He lifted the gun and brought down hard on Serenity's head. Seto closed his eyes and when he opened them he saw the retreating form of Michael and His fiancé.
"I will get you back Serenity. But those men will never work again."
He pulled out his cell phone and called Mokuba.
"Big brother!!! How did it go? Did she say yes or no? Tell me."
Seto sighed. "Mokuba I've got some good news and some bad news."
