Chapter 1

"The New Tea Gardner."

It was a dark, cold night where the sky was raining so much and the lightning was shining across the sky making its dark blue color clear. The wind was so strong and because of this bad weather there wasn't anyone in the streets. The voice of the thunder was so loud and frightening and the lightning lightened the dark streets ever and anon. There, in that terrible storm was a girl. Only one girl was standing under that terrible weather. Her name was Tea Gardner. She didn't care that her clothes were so wet, or that she didn't have an umbrella. She was leaning against a closed store's door and looking to the sky. Sadness colored her features upon remembering that night. It was like this night, stormy and rainy. But it wasn't raining as much as it was today, this was the only difference between this night and that awful night, when she lost the most precious thing that any girl had. She lost her virginity by that guy. The guy that she never imagined that he would be so bastard and hypocrite like that.

((Flashback))

Tea was at school, sitting with her friends in the classroom. Joey and Yugi her best friends were playing duel monsters. While Tristan her third best friend was encouraging them, or maybe Yugi only. Tea on the other hand wasn't with them at all. She was in another world, his world. All She wanted and wished in her life was to have his love back. She was staring at him lovingly and she wished to kick all those girls that were surrounding him from everywhere. Those girls were trying to have a date with him, but he was rejecting them for some reason. Although, all those girls were way much prettier than her. Tea had the most beautiful sapphire eyes in the world. But she wore glasses that's why no one ever noticed her blue eyes. She had long, black hair that reached her back. She was tall and fat, her shoulders were large, her breasts were barely noticed because of their small size, while her stomach was large as if she was pregnant. She looked like a boy that turned suddenly into a girl. And that what frustrated her so much. Although her friends told her many times that she was beautiful, but she knew that they were lying. Because all the girls in her class made fun of her and called her "The fat cow". While none of the boys ever asked her on a date. Her friends would always defend her and made anyone who made fun of her pay for it. But she would think that they're doing that for pity and that's why she would fight with them and not talk to them every now and then. But in the end they would go back best friends again. The duel ended with Yugi the winner as usual. Tristan was happy because Joey lost again and started teasing him. Joey pushed him away and glared at him.

"Shut up Tristan or I'll make you sorry!" Tristan laughed while Yugi tried to calm Joey.

"It's ok Jou, everybody loses sometimes and wins sometimes." Tristan smirked.

"Yeah if you meant Joey then you should say everybody loses all the time." Yugi laughed as Joey growled and clenched his fist.

"What kind of friends are ya?! Tea is da only one who doesn't make fun of me, right Tea?!" But Tea wasn't focusing on their talk. Joey waved his hands in front of Tea's face while Yugi and Tristan tapped Tea's shoulder. She snapped out and turned, yelling.

"What?!" Yugi gave her with a worried expression.

"You OK? We've been calling you for a while." Tea smiled and nodded.

"Uh...I'm fine." She said and turned to stare at Duncin, the hottest guy in the class. He was handsome with his long, jet black hair, and his green eyes. He also wore an earring in his right ear. Joey and Tristan followed Tea's gaze and saw that it led to Duncin, they looked back at Tea and grinned.

"Ah! You like Dancin, don't you?" They asked at the same time. Tea hit them on their heads and yelled a "Shut up!". Yugi on the other hand frowned at this. His big eyes shone with sadness.

"Tea, how many times do I have to tell you not to think about that guy. I'm not comfortable with him." He said sadly.

"But Yugi, I can't get him out of my mind." Joey looked at her in pity. Sighing deeply, he placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Listen Tea, You don't have any chance with him. Especially with those girls around him." Tristan nodded and looked to the girls around Duncin.

"Yep. Those girls are pretty and he doesn't even look at them." Tea gritted her teeth angrily. She was so mad.

"Do you mean that I'm so ugly and that's why I don't have any chance with him?" She yelled, clenching her fist. Joey and Tristan were panicked and shook their heads together.

"No we didn't mean that."

"Did too! And you're gonna be sorry." The three started fighting while Yugi looked at Dancin, who was looking at Tea. Yugi has always loved Tea, but he never told her about that. He was afraid to be rejected.

A Week Later

The prom was coming soon and everybody was looking for a date. All the girls wanted to go out with Duncin. But he declined every invitation. Tea stared at him from a distant place, sighing in relief every time he rejected a girl. While Joey and Tristan were conversing.

"Who is the girl you're going with?" Tristan asked. Joey grinned wiping his nose.

"Mai accepted my invitation. What about ya?" Tristan grinned, giving Joey a winner look.

"Your sister is going with me!" Joey's eyes widened and he growled.

"Tristan!" He yelled, launching himself on him. While Yugi was stared at Tea with dull and sad eyes. Joey noticed how sad Yugi was and let go of Tristan. He patted his shoulder, smiling softly to him.

"So Yug, won't ya go and invite Tea to da prom? It's tomorrow and ya should hurry." Yugi shook his head slightly, smiling sadly.

"I don't have the courage to ask her Joey." Joey and Tristan looked at each other for seconds, then Joey grabbed Yugi closer to him and Tristan so Tea won't hear what he was going to say.

"C'mon Yug, don't be silly. We know that no one will ask Tea to go with him as usual. It must be hurting for girls to feel unwanted like dis. So I guarantee that she'll go with ya. You know, so she won't be alone." Yugi lowered his gaze in despair.

"But I don't want her to go with me just not to be alone Joey. I want her to go with me because she wants to!" Joey and Tristan sighed silently. They knew that Yugi loved her, but they couldn't make Tea love him if she didn't. But they wanted to lighten him up. Suddenly, they both grinned.

"But Yugi, when she goes with you, you'll have the perfect chance to tell her your feelings." Yugi looked up to them, surprised, but then he smiled and nodded. He looked at Tea with hesitation, but then he tapped her shoulder, making her snap out off her thoughts and look at him.

"Um.. Tea...I wanted to say..." But he wasn't able to continue because Tea cut him off.

"Not now Yugi, not now." She muttered as she rose from her seat. Only to be stopped by Tristan's voice.

"Where are you going?" Tea turned to look at him. Her eyes determined.

"I'm going to ask Duncin if he wants to go with me to the prom." Yugi lowered his head sadly. While Joey and Tristan gasped and yelled together at the same time.

"What are you trying to do? Embarrass yourself in front of everyone in the class Tea?" Tea turned her hand to a fist and was shaking with anger.

"What the hell do you mean by that?" Tristan shut up, feeling panicked seeing Tea in that anger. While Joey couldn't take it much longer, seeing his best female friend insult herself in front of the whole class.

"Tea listen, what we meant that we don't want dat guy to make fun of ya and hurt your feelings in front the class, so please don't get mad." Tea just made a "HUMPH" and walked to Duncin's seat.

"You guys mind your own business ok? I'll go to him and make you see Joey that he'll accept." She muttered. Joey and Tristan covered their faces and Yugi was looking at her with sadness written all over his face. It was pretty obvious that Tea doesn't love him. She doesn't even see him anyway. All she cares about is that dork Duncin.

Tea approached Duncin and cleared her throat, making the girls turn her way. And when they saw her they stared slyly at her and one of them said in a singing voice, full of mocking.

"What do you want my Fat cow?" They all laughed at her while Joey who was still hiding his face whispered in his hands "I knew dis was gonna happen". Tea wanted to talk, but the laughters made her stop. She couldn't find her voice to talk. She was so embarrassed and lowered her head, looking at the ground.

"How was I so stupid to embarrass myself like that?" She whispered, while her black hair was covering her red face. Duncin was witnessing this whole act and decided to join in. He stood up from his seat and said harshly separating the girls from Tea.

"Stop it girls, now!" The girls stopped laughing and looked at him, surprised. "So Tea what did you want?" He asked her kindly. All the students were shocked and started looking at her causing her to blush deeply. He was looking at her with so much kindness glowing in his eyes what made her blush more. Finally, she managed to say.

"I...was...wondering...do...you like...I mean...how about we go together...I mean the ..the prom... and ..." Duncin just smiled picking the hint and answered softly quieting her.

"Sure, why not Tea?" Tea was shocked at first, but then smiled and nodded, walking back to her friends with a wide smile appearing on her lips. The girls were shouting and complaining about him going with Tea. While her friends were looking at her with wide eyes. Especially Yugi who didn't imagine that Duncin would say yes to her.

Anyway the party was at 9:00 pm and Tea looked almost good, though the dress didn't really fit her fat body. But Duncin cared less about that and danced with her. Tea was a pretty good dancer that was the best thing she had. Yugi was alone in the party, leaning against the wall and staring at Tea with a lot of sadness in his eyes. And after the party Duncin offered Tea to drive her home and she gladly accepted that. However, her friends specially Yugi told her it's not a wise idea. But she didn't pay attention to them. She's finally with the one she loves so she wouldn't miss any chance to be with him. Even if for just seconds!

Moments later, they arrived to a warehouse and she didn't know what really happened. All she remembered was Duncin taking her inside it and then nothing. Everything happened so fast and Duncin left after he took her most precious thing. Tea didn't find any other solution otherwise than leaving the city to New York, where her parents lived. She left a message to her friends that says.

Dear Yugi, Joey and Tristan...

I was obliged to leave to New York where my parents live.

I didn't have time to say goodbye, so please forgive me and remember that I'll always love you and won't forget anyone of you either.

Love

Tea.

(End of flashback)

Tears were running down Tea's cheeks as she remembered that. It's been a whole 3 years since she's been gone. She did miss her friends so much. She missed Joey and Tristan argues. She missed the stupid things they used to say. And the most one she missed was Yugi. She missed that shy, short friend who always cared about her and supported her. She wondered how their lives had turned out over these years. Sighing deeply, she wiped her tears and walked back home.

In New York Tea met her mom's friend who worked in one of the famous dancing clubs there. When that lady found out how talented Tea was, she suggested her parents to take her to a very famous surgeon in the city. They really welcomed the idea and showed their daughter to him and discussed what changes will happen to her body. Tea done some surgeries, one of them was for her eyes to make her get rid of glasses. She cut her hair till it reached her shoulders and dyed it chocolate brown. Plus, she made some surgeries to change her body.

And after three months she was ready to remove the bandages. She was scared a lot. What if she looked worse than before? What will happen then? But she thought about it. At last she could get her revenge from that bastard. When she thought again about what happened there in the warehouse, she was more determined than any other time. And she was ready to face her fears and remove the bandages. Now after she becomes another beautiful girl, she'll make that punk beg for forgiveness and beg for her love.

Tea was home now. But her parents weren't. She entered and climbed the stairs heading to her room. When she entered it, she walked to the mirror and looked at herself remembering how she reacted when she saw herself for the first time after the surgery.

The doctor removed the bandages gently and carefully. As he removed the last one, her parents gasped. They led Tea to the mirror and asked her to open her eyes, since she had closed them when the doctor began removing her bandages. Tea took a deep breath, trying to forget all her fears and worries. She opened her eyes slowly to look at herself. And when she did she gasped.

There was a new girl reflecting in the mirror. There was a pretty girl standing there. A girl that looks totally different from the previous one.

Yes, It was the new Tea Gardner.

Okay, I hope this wasn't a bad start. Again don't get mad cause of the appearance that I gave to Tea, I know that Tea is extremely beautiful, but I needed her to be like this in this story, though the fact that I hate surgeries and like everyone to stay the way that God made them! Just R&R!
