Summary: Five years have passed since Atem and Tea got married and had their twins Yuki and Kimika, but there is a woman who is infatuated of Atem and is doing everything in her power to take Tea's place in his heart and his life. Will she succeed?
Chapter 1
It's been exactly five years later and Atem and Tea's lives couldn't be any more happier than what they are now. Since the last time they heard from Renku, he was shipped off to another prison for the rest of his life. Rachel, on the other hand, her mind wasn't fit for the prison cell so she was sent to the psychiatric hospital permanently. Throughout that time, Atem's business was still the most well known company in all of Domino City and there were still times that he would get offers from other companies about merging. However, he would turn them down.
Right now, it was seven in the evening and he was making one last important phone call dealing with another business meeting that was scheduled for next. After making the arrangements and saying goodbye, he hung up the phone and sighed in relief as he spun his chair around three times before it was stopped in front of his window. Gazing at the city lights, he thought about all of the things that happened from the night he first looked at the view up until right now with a smile.
Getting up from his chair, he walked over to grab his things so he could start his journey on home. Walking out of his office, he spotted his secretary and one of his close friends Katie still typing on her computer finishing up a document. She wrote the last few sentences and printed out the form so it could be signed by Atem. Standing up, she gave the form to him.
"Here you are boss, this is going to need you signature." she said. Atem sighed which made Katie snicker knowing he was signing forms all day long and thought that his hand would fall off.
"I think I'm going to lose my mind if I have to see one more document." he said as he signed his name on the form and gave it back to Katie to she could file it. After that was taken care of, she turned around to grab her stuff so she could prepare to leave. Putting on her coat, she walked with him over to the elevator to descend down to the entrance. Stepping inside, she pressed the button for the first floor and the elevator started to move down.
"Man, I noticed that the company is very busy these past few weeks." Katie said. Atem nodded his head in agreement.
"Yeah I know, it's going to be nice to just go home and get some sleep. I plan to take some time off this weekend to spend with Tea and the kids. Since I've been so busy with work, I haven't had any quality family time with them." Atem said as he was leaning his head back against the wall.
"That's good, I'm supposed to be going out of town this weekend. Koji, Alicia and I are going to a family reunion and we're supposed to be staying for about three days." she said.
"Well, I hope you guys have a great time." Stepping out of the elevator when it reached the bottom, they both walked outside to the parking lot towards their cars.
"Yeah, Alicia is so excited about seeing her cousins that she can't even sleep. She already had her bags packed about two days ago, but the problem was she packed her whole closet." she said while giggling at the memory of what her now eight-year-old daughter did. Atem laughed along with her while opening his car door.
"Sounds like it's going to be a blast for her, well I got to get home. Can't wait until my head hits the pillow. You have a great time, see you next week." he said getting inside his car. Katie nodded while opening her car and getting inside.
"Okay boss, night." she said. After saying goodnight, Atem started up the engine and pulled out the lot to drive on home to his wife and his two children.
Peeking around a corner inside a peacefully quiet house, we find a four-yer-old mischievous little boy giggling silently as he was watching his mother preparing dinner. His name was Yuki Mutou and he was a spinning image of his father. He had the same tri-colored hair and eyes, but instead of the intimidating, mature gaze that his father has, he had the the childlike eyes like his Uncle Yugi.
Yuki is what you call a playful, adventurous child who likes to play any kind of game, imaginable. He is very confident and like his father, he protects anyone he loves. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a plastic toy whistle and planned to blow into it to make Tea startle with surprise, but he got a little surprise of his own when he felt someone behind him.
"Hi, Yuki."
He almost screamed which made him cover his mouth and turn around to find his twin sister behind him. Her name was Kimika Mutou and she was just a sweet little angel. Instead of looking like her brother, she looked just like her mother. Kimika had long brown hair that reached down past her shoulders and down her back with her father's blond bangs down the side of her face. She also had the color eyes as her father. She is the voice of reason to her brother and tells him that certain ideas he has aren't always good ones.
"Kimika, don't scare me like that, I'm trying to concentrate here." he said as he turned back to Tea who was setting the table for dinner. Kimika noticed the toy whistle in his hand and shook her little head.
"That's not such a good idea Yuki, Mommy's going to know you're behind her. She always does." she said. Yuki placed a playful smirk on his face.
"Not this time, I wasn't as careful as I was last time because I stepped on one of my toys. This time I'm going to be super quiet."
After that was said, he quietly walked into the kitchen, but made sure to to keep his back against the wall as he moved stealthily. Tea had her back turned and was unaware that her son was behind her. Walking a few more steps, Yuki stopped and prepared for the approached. Kimika stood where she was and watched her brother sneak up to her mother. Taking his whistle and slowly bringing it up to his mouth he took a deep, deep breath.
"Don't even think about it." said Tea. Yuki turned his head away from his whistle and let a out a loud raspberry. He pouted and folded his arms as Kimika came into the kitchen giggling at him.
"Aw Mom, how do always know when I'm behind you?" he asked in a little cute voice. Tea giggled and stooped down to give her son a kiss.
"I'm your mother, I know everything."
"I told Yuki he wasn't going to scare you Mommy, but he wouldn't listen to me." Kimika said. Tea lifted her hand to smooth out Kimika's hair and she brought both of her children into an embrace.
"Okay my little rascals, dinner's almost done so why don't you two go wash your hands." she said.
"Mommy, when's Daddy coming home? He said he would play video games with me." said Yuki. Tea looked up at the wall and saw it was half passed seven.
"He should be here in just a few minutes. Now, come on, go wash those sticky little fingers." They both laughed as they ran upstairs to wash up.
Tea smiled at her children's antics at who was going get upstairs the fastest. Standing up from the floor, she continued with preparing dinner while having a few thoughts in her mind. Never had she imagined that her life would turn out this wonderful. Falling in love with Atem, getting married to him and having their twins was the best experiences in her life. She was brought out of her thoughts by the sound of the front door opening and closing and knew that her husband coming inside.
She found him hanging up his jacket and setting down his briefcase against the wall. She could see how tired he was and walked over to give him a warm greeting.
"Hi honey, you look so exhausted." she said. Atem gave her a smile and kissed her lips.
"I am, the office was so busy today. All day it was phone calls, meetings, paperwork, it's good to finally be home with you and the kids. Speaking of which, where are they?" he asked. When Tea was about to answer, she and Atem heard running and looked over to find Kimika and Yuki coming downstairs. Atem crouched down and opened his arms out to hug them.
"Daddy, you're home!" they both said. Atem laughed and picked them up.
"Hey guys, so what have you two been doing today?" Kimika covered her mouth to try and hold in her giggles.
"What's so funny little angel?"
"I scared Yuki because he was trying to scare Mommy again, but he still couldn't." Yuki glared at his sister and folded his arms.
"You did not scare me."
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Alright you two, that's enough. Come on, it's time for dinner. Please, go take your seats at the table and we'll will be in there in just a minute, okay?" Tea said as she was calming them down from their little squabble. Atem placed them down on the floor and watched them run to the table. Standing up again, he turned to Tea and wrapped his arms around her waist giving her another slow kiss. Pulling back, he lifted his hand to caress her face.
"I'm going to change out of this suit, I'll be back down in a few." he said. Tea nodded.
"Okay, but hurry back. I don't think our little monsters can wait any longer to be fed." They could hear the sounds of chanting from the twins saying that they were hungry and wanting food, making them laugh.
"I'll try to change as fast as I can, just tell the kids not to start a riot." he said. He walked upstairs to shower and change into a gray shirt and black pants.
Coming back downstairs, the children were playing rock, paper, scissors and went over to help Tea with the dinner. Sitting down after the food was set and placed on the plates, the Mutou family had a joyous dinner that consisted of stories of their day, laughs and just talking about nothing in particular.
When they all finished eating, Tea took the plates and placed them in the sink. She was about to turn on the water to wash them, when Atem laid his hand on hers to help her. She shook her head saying that he should rest, but he insisted and with his help, the dishes were done in about five minutes. Wrapping his arm around her, they walked into the living room to see Yuki playing his game system and Kimika making on of her drawings. Yuki was having some trouble passing through a level and looked up to Atem and Tea coming inside and sitting down.
"Hey Dad, could you help me? I can't beat the boss level." he said. Atem chuckled and nodded as Yuki gave him the joystick and used his skills on the game. Kimika finished her drawing and ran over to where Tea was and showed it to her.
"Look Mommy, isn't it pretty? It's you, me, Daddy and Yuki together at the beach house." she said. Tea smiled at her daughter's drawing and kissed her forehead.
"This is absolutely beautiful sweetheart, I'm going to hang this on the refrigerator." Kimika giggled and went over to sit next to her father, watching him battle the evil alien on the game. She and Yuki cheered when Atem finally defeated it. Giving the joystick back to his son, Atem stood up and sat down next to Tea bringing her close to him as they watched the game. An hour went by and Yuki was on level six. Tea looked up at the clock and noticed it was time nine o'clock.
"Okay kids, it's getting late. Let's put up the game and head on upstairs to wash up for bed." Yuki and Kimika turned to their mother with puppy dog pouts.
"Aw, do we have to?" they both asked. Atem chuckled.
"Yes you do, listen to your mother. Time to rest those little eyes." After he said that, they both let out sleepy yawns and got up after turning off the game system. Each of them took Tea's hand and she led them upstairs. Atem was turning off the lights, but before he did, he picked up his daughter's drawing and smiled at the image. Walking into the kitchen, he took a magnet and placed it on the refrigerator.
Going up the stairs, he found Tea tucking the twins in bed. Since they were still young, they were sharing a room, but the room was big enough where it was divided in the middle. On one side, there was Kimika's pink bed along with her dolls, stuffed animals, and other toys for her. On the other side was Yuki's blue bed with his games and toys. Coming inside, Atem went over to Yuki and tucked him in. Yuki looked up to him while trying to keep his eyes open a little longer.
"Thanks for helping me with the alien Daddy." he said.
"You're welcome son, get some rest now and I'll see you in the morning." Yuki nodded and saw Tea coming over to kiss his forehead.
"Goodnight my little warrior." she said.
"Night Mommy." With that, Yuki fell asleep with a smile. Next, they went over to Kimika who was still awake and trying to look for something.
"What's the matter sweetie?" asked Atem. She turned to him with a teary look, making them automatically concerned.
"I can't find Patches anywhere." Patches was Kimika's stuffed panda bear. It was given to her for Christmas last year from her parents and she sleeps with him every night when she goes to bed. Tea sat down next to her daughter to calm her down.
"It's alright Kimika, I'm sure Patches is around here somewhere." Tea cooed her to calm her down while Atem looked around the room for the panda. He found him over by the window hiding under a pile of stuffed animals and picked him up to take over to a crying Kimika.
"Now dry your tears sweetie, look who I found." Kimika rubbed her eyes and saw her father holding her panda.
"Patches, you found him Daddy thank you." she said while hugging her panda. He smiled and tucked her in bed.
"You're welcome honey, now no more tears, right?" he said. Kimika nodded.
"No more tears, goodnight Mommy and Daddy, I love you." Atem kissed her forehead.
"We love you too, goodnight little angel." Tea kissed her cheek.
"Goodnight honey, sweet dreams." she whispered. They walked out of the room turning around one more time at the sleeping twins and closing the door quietly behind them. Opening the door to their master bedroom, Atem changed into his night clothes while Tea went to take a shower. He sat down on the bed and leaning his arms on his legs realizing just how tired he was. Feeling movement knowing it was Tea coming out from her shower, he felt her hands massaging his shoulders and he let out blissful sigh.
"How does that feel?" she asked.
"Like heaven, thank you my love." Tea smiled and leaned over to kiss his cheek.
"You've been working so hard these past few weeks, you deserve to have some time to relax." Atem nodded while he let out a moan when Tea continued her massage therapy on him.
"I'm taking some time off from the company for a few days. Katie's going out of town with Koji and Alicia tomorrow...they won't be back until next week. So, I thought that you, me and the kids could spend a few days out at the beach house. I just want to get away from the city for a while."
"That sounds like a great idea, it's just the thing you need." After Tea finished massaging Atem, they both laid down to sleep. He wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her neck breathing in her sweet scent. In a matter of minutes, they were both sound asleep.
It was ten in the evening when a limo was driving up to a mansion. Stopping in front of the mansion, the driver stepped out to open the door for a woman who had raven hair and brown eyes. She was wearing a red dress with a split that reached high up to her thigh and red high heels. Walking up to the door, it was open by her butler and she was escorted inside.
"Good evening Ms. Wong, should I have your dinner prepared for you?" Vivian Wong was her name and she was known for her acting all over Japan. She had been playing in theater shows for three years.
"No, I'm skipping dinner tonight. I have to watch my girlish figure. I will be in my room, so I don't want any interruptions from anyone." Her butler nodded and bowed to her.
"Yes, as you wish."
Vivian walked upstairs to her large bedroom and opened the door to go inside. She had everything she ever wanted. Fame, fortune, luxury and whatever she didn't have, she ordered to have in her grasp.
Clicking on on the dim lamp, it glowed parts of the room where it showed different pictures on the wall. These pictures though weren't just ordinary pictures. They all showed one thing, or rather one person...Atem Mutou.
Yes, that who she was gazing at right now. She picked up a portrait of him on her night table and traced the outline of his face on the frame. Vivian was obsessed with Atem since the day she first saw him and she would do anything to be the lady of his life. There was only one woman whom was stopping her. Tea was now the barrier between her goal. Since she was married to Atem, it was going to take time to get him under her spell.
"I'm finally going to see you after so long. This time, I will have you Atem." she said as a smirk came across her lips.
