Arrogantshipping ( Seto x Mai)
A/N: My sister's favorite so far… I wasn't going to try this at first, but then the image of Mai yelling at Seto popped into my head and this spilled out. It was actually quite fun to write.
"I will not be a trophy wife!" Mai yelled.
Seto blinked down at the blonde woman getting in his face. "What? All I did was suggest coffee sometime, and you start screaming nonsense?"
"Oh, I know how your mind works, Seto Kaiba," Mai insisted, shaking her fist under his nose. "You start out with something innocent, like coffee 'just between employer and employee'. Then comes the slow changing of meetings into dates. Then, one day, you'll figure the time is right and make sure a date goes the right way - and bam! We're sleeping together."
"Aren't you over thinking this?"
"Only as much as you're thinking it!" She glared. "Let… me… finish." Her blue eyes crackled with anger.
"Sorry for interrupting your delusion, Mai…" Seto muttered.
"Then something else goes wrong… or right, according to your plans! I get pregnant. You, of course, have no idea how it could have happened, are profusely apologetic, and insist on doing the right thing - marriage! And once we're married, you're set! Keeping me at home doing all the housework organizing, looking after children, being-" she shuddered "responsible… with no freedom, as nothing more than something for you to flash around! 'And here's my wife, Mai Valentine. You might have heard she was tough, but I got her to marry me!' Well, sorry Seto, your plans are not going to work!"
She snapped her fingers under his nose and stomped off towards her motorcycle, driving past him in a moment - then turning as she crossed the street and blowing him a kiss. Seto stared. How could the woman be so contradictory? It was strangely intriguing…
On her motorcycle, Mai gave a secret smile. Part one of plan, check; Seto was fascinated with her now. Now all that was left was play hard to get… finally relent a little and start dating him… fake a crisis of emotion to make him marry her… and keep on fascinating him while continuing her usual hectic lifestyle, now the woman who had conquered Seto Kaiba.
"Maybe that plan's not too bad…" Seto muttered to himself, on the driveway alone, thinking of what Mai had laid out in her rant.
In the night, two pairs of lips parted into two anticipatory smiles.
"Seto…"
"Mai…"
"It might take forever, but you WILL be mine!"
