Tea Gardner was walking to the mall. She was going to meet Atem there. She loved Atem dearly and with all her heart but she also loved Yugi the same way. So she sometimes spent time with both of them. But today, she was spending some time with Atem. She wasn't even sure if Atem loved her the way she loved him.

She saw Atem standing in front of the mall leaning against a wall with his hands in his pockets. She felt a smile come to her lips. "Atem," She greeted as she stopped in front of him. He smiled brightly at her.

"Hello, Tea," He said. "Shall we go in?"

"Yes," Tea replied. They went into the mall and went to the food court to get some ice cream. Atem didn't want any only Tea did. So Atem just watched her eat her strawberry ice cream.

"Enjoying your ice cream, Tea?" Atem asked.

"Yes," Tea answered as she ate more of her ice cream. "You should try some,"

"I'm not really hungry right now," Atem told her.

"Okay. How much do these cost anyway?" Tea asked as she finished her ice cream. Atem slowly took her hand in his on the table and interlocked their fingers. Tea blushed but Atem did not. He just looked happy.

"Two dollars," Atem answered as he ran his thumb across the top of her free hand. Tea blushed even more when he did that.

"Can I ask you a question, Atem?" Tea asked.

"Yes, go ahead, Tea," Atem replied as he looked at her.

"Will Yugi look like you when he gets older?" She asked. Atem sighed softly and gave her a small smile.

"Maybe," He replied. He then let go of Tea's hand and stood up. "Come on, I want to take you somewhere," Atem told her.

"Alright," Tea got up and let Atem and take her out of the mall.

They ended up walking through a forest. "Where are we going?" Tea asked with a huge smile on her face.

"You'll see," He said happily. They kept walking for a couple of more minutes before they stopped in front of a beautiful lake. Tea's eyes widened and she smiled softly.

"It's beautiful," She whispered. "Thank you for showing me this,"

"You're welcome," Atem sat down in front of the lake and closed his eyes, enjoying the soft wind blowing against his skin. Tea sat down next to him and admired the way the lake sparkled as the sun shone on it.

"Atem…can I ask you another question?" Tea asked.

"Yes, of course," Atem replied as he smiled.

"I…" Tea looked down and drew her knees up to her chin. After that she hugged them and rested her head on her knees. "I don't know who I love the most. You and Yugi…I just love you both so much. I need to know who I love the most, do you know?"

"Tea," Atem put his hand on her back and sighed. "You have to love someone more. You cannot love two people the same way. You should know who you love the most. Do what you think is right,"

"Every time I try that I…" Tea didn't finish and began crying just a little. Atem rubbed his hand up and down her back to comfort her. When Tea was done crying she wiped her tears away and sighed deeply.

"Better?" Atem asked her.

"A little," Tea replied. "But Atem…it is possible to love two people the same way,"

"I know. I meant you. You don't love two people the same way…I can see it in your eyes. You love someone more," Atem told her.

"I can't choose, Atem," Tea blinked back more tears.

"This isn't choosing, Tea. You shouldn't even have to choose because you should know who you love the most. Think," Atem said. Tea looked up at him. He was looking at her. Tea then put her hands on his cheeks and brought her lips to his.

When Tea pulled away Atem was staring at her with love in his eyes. He was in love with her the way she was in love with him. Tea felt her heart beat quicken. Not because she just kissed him but because she felt only a little bit of love in that kiss and because she knew he loved her. Tea looked down as she felt her heart start to shatter. Yugi was the one not Atem. "Go to him," Atem whispered to her.

"Atem…" Tea looked at him. She expected to see anger or sadness in his eyes but there was happiness in them and he was also smiling. "Thank you," She smiled at him before getting up and running off. Atem watched her go before lying down on the grass and staring up at the sky. He was very happy for her. But somewhere in his heart he felt like he had just lost her.

Tea kept running and running until she saw Yugi sitting on a bench at a park. He looked solemn for some reason. "Yugi!" Tea called as she ran over to him. Yugi looked up in surprise and saw her running over to him.

"Tea?" Yugi was confused. Tea stopped in front of him then sat next to him.

"What's wrong?" Tea asked.

"Nothing. I'm just surprised that you're here," Yugi answered.

"Why?" Tea questioned.

"Because I saw you and Atem walk by here to go to the forest…you two looked really happy together," Yugi put his hand to his heart and sighed.

"Yugi…I love you," Tea told him. "I love you so much. I found that out today, you're the one who I love the most!"

"T-Tea…I…" Yugi grinned with a blush on his cheeks. "I love you too,"

"I'm glad," Tea blushed before hugging him tightly. She then kissed his lips and Yugi returned it. This time she felt so much love in the kiss that her heart almost exploded.
