A Walk in the Snow Chapter 2
Ice cream with extra sprinkles!
Anzu stared for a moment, and then she felt a warm blush cover her face.
Seto looked down at her, blue eyes cold and unforgiving. 'My, my Anzu must be cold….' He smirked and turning on his heel, began walking from the door.
"Go as you wish Mokuba," he said calm and cool as a cucumber. "Um, Seto?"
He turned, seeing Anzu blushing like a maniac, her knuckle close to her lips giving her an angelic innocent look.
"Would you like to come with us?" Her eyes shined and a bright smile glistened in the winter sun. Mokuba standing in the middle of it, shocked.
"I have better things to do with my time Mizaki," Kaiba sneered walking up the large stairway of the mansion.
"Oh come on Seto, its just ice cream!" Mokuba latched himself onto Seto's coat and made a point of not letting go. Preparing himself for the cute puppy look that was bound to be looking up at him, the oldest Kaiba looked down at the little boy. That boy of course, giving him a thoroughly practiced look of a puppy that needed a home.
He mentally groaned. He could ignore the look, but Mokuba sulked. And when he did, it was a pain in the ass to live through. Mokuba, though he looked innocent, could hold a grudge the size of Asia if he wanted to. Not that he ever did.
Seto glanced at Anzu and flinched a tiny molecule. She was grinning evily. 'Oh someone will so pay for this," Seto thought, finally looking back down at Mokuba. "Will you please go get ice cream with us?' the little Kaiba pleaded.
'God dammit,' was Kaiba's only thought as he grunted and the littlest one jumped off him and ambled up the stairs to get his coat. Anzu was caught in a fit of giggles and had a gloved hand over her mouth to keep from laughing out loud.
'Stupid cheerleader,' Seto thought as he walked out of the room to get a slightly heavier coat. You know, in case someone rammed into him and he went plowing into the snow.
Mokuba and Anzu conversed and giggled all the way to the ice cream parlor. 'Who the heck buys ice cream in the middle of winter,' was the oldest Kaiba's only thought the whole quarter mile to the shop.
"So Mokuba, have you gotten any girlfriends lately? Any special girl I should know about?" Anzu raised an eyebrow and smirked as she teased the young boy walking next to her. Mokuba blushed and stuttered, "N-no, what about y-y-you?" She laughed at the reply, making a merry jingle in the cold winter air. It could melt away the ice off any heart, except for Seto Kaiba's. She swore if he even had a heart, it was only ice.
"Oh look Anzu! There it is!" Mokuba drastically changed the subject and ran towards the parlor, leaving Anzu and Seto behind. Anzu laughed again, a faint pink blush spread over her cheeks as she ran after Mokuba.
Seto stood there. This was the only thing, the only time; he had no idea what to do. He could either follow after the two, or turn around and walk home. Decisions, decisions. Groaning, he placed both of his hands into his coat pockets and walked, as enthusiastic as a person being welcomed to the gallows, after the two laughing their heads off.
Anzu closed her eyes as the warm air of the parlor shot out at her and blew tendrils of chestnut hair flying from her face. The parlor wasn't that busy, but that was normal since it was actually very cold outside and no one wanted to be colder.
Mokuba had his face pressed against the glass before the ice cream and was pointing at a bunch of the ice creams. 'Hmmm, should I get this one, or this one?' was the only thought clouding his brain.
Anzu brought a few fingers to cover her mouth up and giggled a little jingle. She practically bounced over to him to look at the flavors herself. It was around then when the oldest Kaiba walked in through the glass doors. The ringing of the bells seemed to be the only thing that gave a sign to his presence, for he practically glided over the floor quickly as though to avoid being seen.
"Hey big brother," Mokuba yelled blowing his cover, "what flavor do you want?!" Seto bit back the reflex to snap back an insult, substituting it with an obviously forced, "I don't want ice cream Mokuba." He winced, it sounded evil to even his ears.
Mokuba shrugged not caring and spun around to Anzu. "What do you want Anzu?" he asked. Anzu turned her head down to look at the Kaiba with her azure ocean eyes. A slow grin covered her face, giving her the mischievous look that would look awkward on any other face. "Well how about this?" Anzu leaned forward and whispered to Mokuba a few words before Mokuba's face lit up like a candle.
Mokuba slowly turned towards Seto, a grin on his face. "Seto!" he whined, "I need help getting the right flavor!" Seto looked coldly down at his brother, but Mokuba kept his cool. "C'mon! I need help!" he whimpered again. He resisted the urge to glare at the kid and kick him through his coat. Oh the sweet urge.
Anzu slyly walked towards the ladies bathroom. Leaning on the wall just before the door she waited as Mokuba dragged the resistant Seto behind him. Mokuba once again pressed his face to the glass, pointing and conversing while Seto answered with grunts and not so subtle hints that he wanted to leave.
"Hey Seto, which flavor do you want?" Mokuba looked at his glaring brother and shot a 100-watt smile at him. Seto nearly winced, "I don't want ice cream," he snapped. He noticed some movement to his left and snapped his head towards to movement. It was Anzu.
When Anzu had heard Mokuba yell out "Which flavor do you want," it was a signal to tell Anzu to start walking toward Kaiba's. Slyly moving to the left while on a slight diagonal to end up behind him, she grinned manically. Seto had seen her, but she kept moving until she was right behind him and leaned forward.
Placing her hands on his shoulders and her breasts pressing against his back she muttered a soft whisper. "C'mon Seto, get some ice cream." Her breath tickled his ear and suddenly, Seto knew what was going on. 'They're ganging up on me to make me have ice cream!' The thought sounded ridiculous in his own thoughts, but he was pretty sure that was the case.
'Seems like Seto figured it out,' Anzu barely held in an evil snicker when she felt Seto stiffen and his eyes widen a fraction of a millimeter. He glared at her and ordered some sherbet.
A/N-OMFG it's been sooo long since I've updated. But wow, 3 pages, I'm proud of myself. - Anyway, I've tried drawing some frickin' fanart for this story, but it hasn't been working for me. So if you could whip something up about any of these chapters, that would be very nice and I would hug you. I'll start on the next chapter right away, but it may take a week before I'm fully satisfied with it. It took so long to download this, and before that I had to struggle to keep the charactors from going OOC. Review and the next chappie will be done a LOT quicker!
