A/N: So this is the prologue of my sequel to "The Game" :) I'm still working on this story though, (For "The Game" I had it all typed up and ready to go) but this time, I was too eager to post before finishing the story! This chapter has a bit of a lemon, not at all a full lemon, but it's more T+ rated content than K or T ;) Read, review, tell me what you think :D
Prologue:
"It was clean this morning Seto!" Mokuba looked as though he could cry. "I left Jayden alone in here for ten minutes and I came back to this!" Jayden had in fact snook out after the initial discovery.
Kia's heart melted. "He could be telling the truth" she reassured Kaiba. "My brother had the same problem..."
"Uh Kia..." Kaiba tried to be gentle. "I didn't know you had siblings..."
"Oh my gosh!" Kia almost collapsed where she stood. 'Who was I talking about?'
Kaiba watched with interest as Kia squeezed her eyes shut and tried to comprehend what she had said ten minutes ago. She'd retired to her room for the evening with Kaiba following her and was trying desperately to remember what had happened.
"Did you know who you were talking about when you said it?" Kaiba offered. Kia slowly nodded.
"I saw him" she mumbled, her arm restng over her forehead. She was lying out on her bed, her hair spread out on the sheets beneath her and Kaiba sitting at her feet. "He was about four years old and had red hair"
"So you had a family at one point..." Kaiba put a hand on her shin in comfort. Kia blushed when she felt his hand on her leg. He smirked.
Kaiba loved that he could embarress her so quickly. Not in a sadistic way, but to him it meant that she really did like him. Kia sat up onto her elbows and watched Kaiba.
"Harry" Kia mumbled with certainty. Kaiba looked up at her. "His name was Harry"
"You remember that much?" Kaiba marvelled at her recollection. 'How could she remember that much?'
'Well, now that I think about him..." Kia fell backwards and bounced slightly on the bed. Kaiba felt something deep in his chest. His hand moved up along her leg to her knee. Kia took barely any notice of him. He rose onto his knees and placed his other hand on her other knee. Kia took a sharp breath.
"Seto, is everything alright?" Kia muttered, attempting to get up. Kaiba pushed her back down gently and moved over her. She looked so worried; he smirked and pressed his lips to hers. She was nervous, he could tell.
"Kia, stop panicking" he commanded, mumbling against her lips. She blushed again and smiled slightly at him. "If you don't like what I'm doing, tell me and I'll stop straight-away"
He waited for Kia to nod before he kissed her again. His tongue teased her bottom lip and she opened her lips eagerly. Their tongues danced together for a few moments, before Kaiba pulled away allowing them both air.
"Why the sudden interest to kiss me?" Kia asked him. He smirked at her and raised an eyebrow.
"It's a constant interest of mine actually" he replied, before adding "Why, does it bother you?" Kia began to laugh her quiet laugh.
"Not at all" she smirked. He leant down and kissed her again, his hands exploring her upper body. His right hand twisted into the hair at the back of her neck and his left hand wrapped around her waist.
"Mokuba left to go to the arcade a while ago" he explained to her, sitting up and pulling her with him. "With your permission, I'd like to take you to my bedroom" Kaiba offered her his hand in an old-fashioned manner. Kia blushed and looked down. "Your safe word is butternut..." Kaiba suggested. Kia laughed.
"If I go with you, what do I get in return?" She asked, knowing exactly what was going to happen. Kaiba smirked.
"It's all about you Kia, today and always" he vowed. Her vision blurred with emotion as he looked into her eyes. "I love you Kia"
Kia blinked. "Pardon?" Had he really said those three words?
"Too soon?" Kaiba laughed a small laugh, but looked worried. Kia moved closer to him.
"Not at all" She wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered "I love you too" before allowing him to pick her up as she pressed her lips to his. She wrapped her legs around his middle and he carried her to his room, never breaking the kiss.
Kia was curled up against Kaiba's chest, having spent the night with him when her phone rang. She blinked her eyes wearily and looked at the alarm clock; ten minutes past ten. She ignored it, wrapping her arms tighter around Kaiba. The phone's ringing stopped for a moment, but then began again. Angry, Kia picked it up and answered it.
"Oh Kia! I had to tell someone!" Téa's annoying voice came barrelling down the phone before Kia had said hello. She sat up in Kaiba's bed and frowned at the all-too-familiar voice.
"Tell someone what?" Irritated, she got up, hastily put on Kaiba's shirt and made her way into the adjoined bathroom. It was white and silver, the tiles on the floor being a bluish-silver and the wall tiles being a combination of both white and silver. The bath/shower was silver, along with the toilet and sink. Kaiba sat up and watched her lithe frame walking around, listening with a bored expression on her face.
"Yugi asked me out just now!" Téa squealed down the phone. Kia held the phone away from her ear while Téa rambled on about how romantic he was and how he was so nervous... She jumped slightly when she felt Kaiba's hands on her shoulders.
"It's only me" he mumbled, trying to listen to Téa on the phone. He heard 'Yugi', 'Date' and 'Friday' mixed with other random words, and laughed when Kia replied.
"That's brilliant Téa, but I'm kind of busy right now..." Kia was trying her hardest to be polite, but it was becoming increasingly difficult with Kaiba running his hands over her back and shoulders. Téa apologised and disconnected, allowing Kia to turn on the shower.
"Mind if I join you?" Kaiba asked. Kia giggled and pushed him in. "I'll take that as a yes" he informed her and gently pulled her in with him.
Kia dropped the soaking wet shirt onto the floor of the shower and turned around. "I couldn't handle an encore right now" she muttered to no-one in particular. Kaiba took in a sharp breath. "I'm fine Seto, trust me" she giggled, picking up a sponge and squirting shower gel onto it. She washed herself as Kaiba squirted shampoo onto his hands and began washing her hair.
"So, I don't get an encore?" Kaiba actually sounded dismayed at this news. Kia turned around to face him.
"Oh, you definately will someday" she reassured him with a smirk. "Just not today" Kaiba rinsed her hair for her.
"That's good, means I didn't do too badly huh?" he asked. Kia turned around slowly to face him.
"Are you saying that was your first time?" She'd thought that Kaiba would have had many gilfriends before her, and therefore would be experienced. 'He certainly seemed experienced last night...' she thought. He blushed slightly, his cheekbones turning a slight shade of pink.
"Yeah..." he muttered, grabbing her gently by the shoulders and turning her around. He felt awkward under her surprised gaze and washed her back with the sponge she'd been using.
"Seto, I..I thought..." Kia stuttered. Kaiba finished rinsing her back and stood out. "Where are you going?" Fear spiked inside her chest. Was he going to leave her? Was he going to reject her?
Leaning on the outside of the shower door, he looked in through the steamed glass at her. "I'm still here... I just felt uncomfortable..." He looked down for a moment.
"Have I offended you?" Kia's sadness thickened her voice. Kaiba looked back up at her.
"Not offended, you just seemed to assume I'd been with other women before..." He smirked at her. "But I haven't..." Kia frowned at him.
"I'm sorry for assuming... It's just that you're a big important CEO, I thought..." Kia looked down. "I didn't think bad of you or anything..." Kaiba chuckled.
"It's alright, I don't mind... " He smirked at her again. Kia smiled.
"Are you going to get back in or what?" As she spoke, Kaiba got back inside with her. "Hehehe... I knew you would..." She picked up the sponge and washed him.
