Chapter 1

Typing. That was all that was heard in his ears all day long. His fingers clicking on the keyboard over and over again at a rapid pace, making his shoulders burn from being hunched over all day. Atemu sighed exasperatedly and leaned back in his leather chair, his palms rubbing at his tired eyes from working all day. He glanced at his digital wrist watch and he gave a groan of disappointment when the small red numbers read 11:00 PM. He was hoping to get home early to get at least a few hours of sleep before waking up early in the morning at 5:00 AM.

Atemu Sennen was the CEO of the infamous Sennen Corporation and one of Japans highly available bachelors. On his father's death bed, his dying wish to his only son was for him to take over the company and make sure it stayed on top, and that's exactly what he did. At the young age of 20, Atemu took over the family business and did a good job, in fact, he might have made it better. The ratings sky rocketed in a few weeks and soon he was on every magazine, every billboard, and was even his ratings were tied up with Kaiba Corp. But at the age of 26, his work was getting the better of him and he had to work almost 24/7 to stay on top.

Atemu rubbed the bridge of his nose with his fingers and his elbows leaned on the desk, wanting to shoot his damn lap top multiple times. The pair of office doors was knocked on and was opened slowly, a brunette stepping in with a smile and her bright green eyes so full of life and curiosity. "Hey Atemu!"

"How many times must I tell you to call me boss? And why aren't you using the intercom?" Atemus usual deep baritone voice was now drained and raspy. The tanned brunette stepped in, carrying a small folder in her arms. She was very professional looking with her beige dress and white heels, but her personality was that of a 10 year old. "Oh, there's no one else here! Besides, I and you are practically family"

Atemu sighed and sat up straight, the chair creaking a little as he did so "I suppose. I have known you since childhood, Mana." The girl smiled and nodded, leaning against his mahogany desk "That's right! So I'm not treating you like a stranger, especially at work." Mana said as she handed him the small folder, Atemu taking it regrettably. Mana knew he hated his work even though he hid it very well. Being his secretary and best friend, it was hard to see him this way. Especially since they were childhood friends, she knew he wasn't himself lately.

The phone rang beside Atemus laptop and he was about to reach out and answer it, but Manas hand made it there before him "Let me" Atemu smiled thankfully at her and moved back in his seat, Mana answering the phone "Hello, Sennen Corporation. How can we help you?" There was a pause and then Mana giggled a little. "Sorry Jounouchi. I'll hand over the phone to him" Mana handed Atemu the phone, The CEO taking it and answering it, letting his business tone down a notch. "Well I certainly didn't expect you to phone tonight, Jounouchi"

There was a small happy laugh on the other end and he responded "Well me and Malik thought we would give you a call and see what was up with you tonight" Atemu rose a brow at that and pressed a button on the phone holder, turning on speaker phone so Mana could hear as well. "I am doing fine, but why do you two want to know?"

"Well I and Malik were going out tonight and we were wondering if you would like to join us. What do you say?" Mana smiled at Atemu and nodded silently, happy that Jounouchi was offering for Atemu to have some fun. He needed a good break. Atemu however didn't look quite interested. In fact, he looked a little irritated. "Jounouchi you know that I am busy at work. As much as I'd love to go, I cannot"

"Oh come on. Man! We'll pick you up and everything." his voice sounded desperate and pleading. Mana looked at Atemu and she gave him a pleading look, wanting her best friend to have a little time off. Even just for one night.

Atemu looked at her and then sighed, shaking his head with a small defeated smile. "Alright I'll go" Manas face brightened at that and she smiled happily. "Great! We'll meet you outside your building in a few minutes. See ya!" the line went dead and Atemu hung up the phone. He glared playfully at Mana and chuckled softly. "Are you happy now?" Mana giggled and her fingers fiddled behind her back in a mischievous gesture "I am. Want me to watch over the office tonight?" Atemu nodded and stood up, brushing his black business suit to get all the wrinkles out.

Atemu stretched his back muscles and then organized some of his papers on the desk. "Make sure that the building is safe. If someone calls and asks for me, tell them I'll get back to them in the morning" Mana nodded and they walked out of the office, the brunette sitting down at her smaller desk right outside Atemus office "Have fun Atemu. I'll keep an eye on things here!" she winked slyly at him and Atemu gave her a friendly smile, the elevator doors opening and him stepping in. He pressed the lobby button and the doors closed, the elevator riding down and carrying the CEO with it.

Review! No flames please!
