Previously: Kaiba didn't see her looking at him. He just stared straight ahead. Seeing this as a great opportunity, tea quickly took out her camera and aimed it at the unaware Kaiba.
"Don't worry, mom, I'll make sure to take PLENTY of pictures…" She whispered to herself with a sly grin on her face.
CHAPTER TWO
Seto Kaiba was busy staring at the little runts playing across the room to notice a flash that went off towards him. At first, all he could think of was the paparazzi.
'Oh fuck! How the heck did those damn idiots find me here?' he thought to himself. He quickly turned to the direction he saw it from even though he knew turning towards the light was most likely a bad idea. But instead of finding a hoard of killer paparazzi, he saw a brunette girl in a somewhat similar outfit hidden behind a camera. The girl took a few more pictures with him actually facing towards the camera.
After the girl was finished taking her pictures, she lowered the camera to reveal her beautiful blue eyes. Right then, Kaiba knew who it was.
"GARDNER!" he yelled with rage. Tea nearly jumped when he yelled. "You little FU-" he paused remembering there were children in the room. "F-FUDGER! Why in HEL- HECK did you take that picture for?" he found it was hard not to swear. He thought about just going ahead and swearing, but it would be bad publicity. His eyes were filed with rage and Tea knew it too.
She knew she had the upper hand in this battle and threw a smirk on her face. "I thought it was a once in a life time opportunity, so I took the chance I got."
Kaiba stood there astonished. 'Is this really the same girl that hangs out with those dweebs at school; the one that talks about friendship and shit?'
"You know, Kaiba, I'm not really the girl that you see at school. I am completely opposite. Okay, maybe not COMPLETELY opposite. I still care about my friends. That's why I took the picture."
"What do your dweeby friends have to do with this? I'm just doing this to settle a deal with a company." His cold voice spat.
"That is exactly my point right there! You're always picking on my friends! What did we ever do to you, huh? Just because we can't afford to eat lobster every night doesn't make us low life. Just because you can make hologram call doesn't make us lower than you! Your not that high up, you cocky son of a biscuit!"
"Fine, I'll be…. Nice… to your… f-friends." It was hilarious to see the powerful CEO struggle to say a one-syllable word. It was like a three-year-old trying to pronounce vicarious.
"Oh, No, no, no, Mr. Kaiba. You won't get off that easy! You'll have to hang out with us too until Christmas comes."
Kaiba almost blew a casket when he heard her say those eight words. "Excuse me? I think I've heard you wrong."
"No, I believe you heard correct. And besides, it'll be healthy for you to get out of your cramped office once in a while and hang out with people your own age once in a while."
"Why you-"Kaiba was cut off when Tetsuo came in.
"Ah! There you are, Mr. Kaiba! I thought you decided to get change and ditch the party!" Tetsuo pretended to be hurt when he said this.
"Put a cork in it, Fujimoto. I'm here and… dressed. Where's that child I'm suppose to babysit?"
"Oh? The young master, Kazune?"
"Yeah, whatever his name. Where is he?" Kaiba ordered.
"Hmmm. Mr. Shiyaki didn't tell me the young master will be coming; he just said to watch you."
"Why that…"
Tea couldn't help but start laughing at their conversation. But why shouldn't she? Kaiba practically embarrassed himself for no reason. As the teenage girl almost fell out of laughter, the men turned and looked at her.
"What's so funny?" both of the young men said at the same time, but one was less threatening.
"Oh, nothing, nothing at all; but I have to go and help the children now. As of what we were talking about earlier, Kaiba, let's talk a little more after the party, kay?" She asked in a cheery voice.
'What has that girl been smoking?' Kaiba thought.
"Sure." With this, Kaiba went and sat down in a chair that was pretty small. That is considering it was made for ten-year-olds. He watched Tea as she helped the children with drinks and food. She was smiling and laughing the whole time. He couldn't help but notice that she was particularly looking after one child in specific. He was average height for his age, ragged-looking light brown hair, light-tan skin, and had green eyes. He guessed that that was her brother. But even so, he looked nothing like her. He must get his looks from their other parent.
"…Don't you think so, Mr. Kaiba?" asked a familiar voice.
'Fujimoto…' he thought.
Kaiba quickly tried to cover up his "unawareness" with a response. "Yeah, I do."
"Oh, seriously? I was joking. I didn't know you guys had that kind of relationship?" yelled the over excited servant.
"What? With who?"
"With Ms. Gardner! Weren't you listening when I was talking to you earlier?"
"It doesn't matter. The party's almost over. Can I change now?"
"No! You have to help the children first!" Kaiba quickly leapt from his seat to help the kids.
'You better be fucking serious, Fujimoto… I need to get this shit off me soon…' Kaiba put on a fake smile that scarred the children for life and tried to help them. 'Odd. The children keep running away from me.'
Tea looked up and saw Kaiba having a hard time cooperating with the kids. "Uh… Kaiba? What are you doing? You're frightening the poor kids…"
"It's not my fault they don't like elves!"
"It's not the elf part. I think it's just you…" She proclaimed. "Or just your creepy fake smile…" she murmured to herself.
Kaiba arched one of his eyebrows. "What was that?"
"I was saying… You can't just put a fake smile when you help kids. You have to make them feel like you WANT to help them."
"But I DON'T…"
"They don't know that. You just have to hide that part."
"Wasn't I just doing that a minute ago?"
"Yes, but not well. I think you made the children scared of elves for the rest of their lives. Probably even Hansel, too. I don't know what to do with you, but just TRY to get into it. I mean REALLY try. Pretend they're Mokuba or something."
"But what if I want to strangle Mokuba's neck right now?
Tea's eyes grew big. "WHAT KIND OF BIG BROTHER ARE YOU?"
"*sigh* Never mind. It doesn't matter. I'll try my best."
During the rest of the party, Kaiba got along with the kids almost the entire time they had left.
Tetsuo tapped on Kaiba's green shoulder. "Okay, Mr. Kaiba, you can go change now!"
"Finally." Kaiba left and changed in the men's restroom. When he came out, he saw Tea holding hands with the little boy from before. "Gardner, is that your little brother?"
Tea lit up a grin. "Why yes he is! Come on, Yoshiro, introduce yourself." She encouraged.
The little boy stepped forward with bravery. "Hello, ass-munch! My name is Yoshiro Gardner. One day I'll become oober famous that I will out shine anyone! And if you DARE hurt my older sister, I'll kick your damn ass to hell!" His introduction surprised both teenagers.
Tea quickly grabbed Yoshiro by his cheeks and pinched them hard. "HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU TO RESPECT YOUR ELDERS? HUH?"
"I'M-SORRY!"
" 'ASS-MUNCH'? WHO TAUGHT YOU THOSE WORDS, MISTER? TELL ME RIGHT NOW!"
"I'M SORRY!"
"DON'T APOLOGIZE TO ME! APOLOGIZE TO MR. KAIBA, RIGHT NOW!" Tea demanded as she released to poor boys cheeks that she showed no mercy to.
Yoshiro turned to Kaiba, who had been watching them in horror, and bowed. "Please forgive me, Mr. Kaiba?"
Kaiba stared at Yoshiro's red cheeks. Tea was truly someone to be afraid of. "I don't know, Gardner junior. I don't think I can accept this kind of behavior…" as he said this, he noticed trickles of tears falling from the boy's eyes. Tea grabbed the camera and pointed at it. Kaiba knew that she was blackmailing him. "I mean… Sure, kid."
"Okay, Yoshiro! Go play with your friends. I have to talk to Mr. Kaiba for a little bit."
Kaiba noticed she had been calling him 'Mr. Kaiba' for a while.
'At least she has SOME respect for me. At least in front of kids…'
"Okay, Kaiba! You. Me. My friends. Bowling. Tomorrow at noon. Got it?" She asked, but it was more of a command.
He was shocked at how soon it was. "Yeah. Sure."
Tea clapped he hands with glee and then went serious. "Don't forget, 'Mr. Kaiba' that you have to be nice to EVERY one of my friends." She said and walked away.
The next day, Tea called up her friends and went on a three way chat.
"Hey guys! You're never gonna believe it, but I invited another person to go bowling with us!" the overly excited brunette yelled over the phone.
"That's great, Tea. Who is it?" asked her supportive friend, Yugi.
"Yeahs, Tea, Who is it?" yelled her loud friend, Joey.
"*munch* *munch* *munch* *munch*" Her friend Tristan ate on the other end of the line.
"Okay, don't get mad-"
"whys would we's get mad for, Tea?"
"You can tell us Tea."
"*munch* shrea(yeah) Mea(Tea)!"
"Okay… Kaiba is coming."
"WHAT?" yelled the three boys, but one of them was choking instead of yelling.
The teenagers heard a lot of choking on the other end. "OH MY GOD, TRISTAN, ARE YOU OKAY?"
After a minute they got a response. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT JACK-ASS IS GOING BOWLING WITH US TODAY?"
"YEAH!" screamed the other united voices.
"Ok, listen here, boys. Mokuba told me that Kaiba isn't doing well. He's. Well…you know… a failure as a teenage boy. He needs to hang around people his own age! So I invited him and he said 'fine'."
After the friends had their discussion on the matter of Kaiba, they all got ready and left for bowling. They each arrived there one by one, eventually leading up to the grand entrance of Seto Kaiba. Joey had to force himself to not try and kill Kaiba. Yugi just sat there and was happy that Kaiba was actually hanging out with them without Duel Monsters. Tristan was on the same boat as Joey, except he didn't look constipated. Tea sat there smiling with her camera in hand for just in case she "needed" it. Of course ALL of Tea's friends were there, but not all of them wanted to bowl, so they just sat there, watched, and talked. Serenity, Mai and Duke was there.
Kaiba decided to sit next to Tea just in case he got the chance to steal the camera and destroy it so he didn't need to do any of this again. He looked around at her friends. Kaiba saw Joey and Tristan acting like complete morons again, Yugi sat there smiling still, it sort of freaked Kaiba out, Mai was putting her make up on, and Duke was flirting with Serenity. Then, Kaiba Noticed Serenity. Although Kaiba didn't really know her that well, she was at least ONE person of the moron group he could deal with.
While everyone wasn't paying attention, Tea already put in the data for the game and started it. "Okay! Who wants to go first?"
"Of course it will be me's, the great Joey Wheeler!" Joey took a random bowling ball that happened to be hot pink and threw it down the alley. Joey watched as he saw the hot pink ball completely curve into the gutter.
"Nice choice of color, Joey!" yelled Joey's best friend, Tristan. "It really suits you!"
"Hun! I think you should've chosen the purple one!" Joey's girlfriend, Mai yelled.
"Nice, game, Mu-"Kaiba started, but then he remembered his agreement with Tea. "You'll get it next time, Joey!" he decided to yell, even though he knew it was WAY out of character for him. Everyone stared at him. Yugi and Tea just smiled though, but Yugi doesn't really count because he always smiles.
"Uh… Yeah. Sure." Joey picked up a different bowling ball while he was in a confused state. This bowling ball was, indeed, Seto Kaiba's. While Joey threw the one-thousand dollar ball down the alley, Kaiba's eye twitched. He was holding back the urge to take that hot pink bowling ball and shove it up Joey's- "BOO-YAAAH!" yelled Joey, interrupting Kaiba's thoughts. Joey had gotten a spare.
Everyone stared at Joey as he waited for his "lucky" bowling ball to come up. Then he noticed that the bowling ball he used wasn't hot pink, it was black and had S.K engraved in gold on it. "Uh…" was all he could say. "Sorry, Kaiba. I didn't mean to use your bowling ball…"
"It's okay," was Kaiba's response. Everyone was shocked at how civil Kaiba and Joey had been since the game started. But it all changed when the gang went out to eat afterwards.
