A/N: While I wasn't so proud of my first three chapters, but I'm reasonably pleased with this one. Enjoy!
I don't own Yugioh, but I will gladly buy it if it ever comes up for sale on ebay.
Chapter 4
Tea had not expected to sleep that night troubled by Kaiba's threat, but in fact, she slept quite peacefully, and at dawn she was startled to be shaken awake by a knock on her door. Yawning, she sat up and checked the clock on the nightstand. 5:03am. Who could be waking her at this hour?
"Come in," she called, thinking it might be Mokuba or Aunt Teresa. The door opened, and Kaiba stood in the doorway, his icy blue eyes looking her up and down.
"What is it? What do you want?" she demanded.
For a moment he said nothing, but continued to watch her in mocking silence, surveying her tumbled hair and lovely body, scarcely covered by her floaty pink nightgown. Her cheeks grew hot, and she yanked the covers up to her chin.
He looked rather amused. "Breakfast is in five minutes. Get dressed and we'll go down together." He turned and slammed the door on his way out.
"Stupid arrogant ass," she muttered to herself, throwing the covers off and scrambling out of bed. Why did he feel the need to order her around. It made her long to disobey. She knew of course that it would be unwise to do so. If she and Mokuba were going to stand a chance, keeping Kaiba happy was key.
She pulled off her nightie and and put on her favorite white jeans and pink tank top. She opened the door and almost ran into Kaiba. She looked up into his normaly emotionless eyes, and shivered to see them glittering maliciously.
"Come with me, Gardner," he ordered, turning and stalking down the stairs. Tea followed him down the stairs, and into the cavernous dining room, where Mokuba was waiting.
"Good morning, sweetie," she said, drawing him down to her lips. He smiled, and kissed her gentley.
"Oh gag me," Kaiba sneered. The two lovers came apart with a groan.
Mokuba pulled out a chair beside his own for Tea, but Kaiba grabbed her by the shoulders and forced her into the seat beside himself. Tea looked at Mokuba, who simply shrugged and sat down. Several maids bought in trays of eggs, toast, oatmeal, and fruit. Tea filled her plate and dug in.
They ate in silence, but Tea could feel Kaiba's eyes upon her. She knew Mokuba could see it too, for he was growing visably angrier, glaring daggers at his older brother.
This tension quickly grew to be too much for Tea. "So Mokuba, when are you leaving for school," she asked, desprate to break the silence.
"First thing tomorrow morning,"he said, his hot grey eyes never leaving his brother."I'll return Friday evening. So be ready for the night of your life." Kaiba let out a low growl.
"Excuse me gentleman, but I think I'm going to go for a morning jog," she said, quickly getting up out of her seat. She left the dining room. The brothers listened as she slipped on her shoes and went out the door.
"Seto, what are you doing?" Mokuba demanded, taking a defensive stance. "Tea is my fiance, and I would aprecicate it if you would leave her alone."
"Sit down, Mokuba" Kaiba snapped, glaring at his brothers brazen defiance, "you may be an adult now, but no one shouts at me like that."
"Just remember Seto: Tea loves me, and she is going to be my wife."And with that, he stormed upstairs.
Kaiba sipped his coffee, a slight smirk gracing his features. Tomorrow could not come fast enough. Soon he would be all alone with Tea Gardner.
"Let my game begin..." he said to himself.
A/N: Review please. I haven't gotten many yet, and I love feedback. Thanks to all who did review. You guys rock! Next chapter, the gang makes the scene, and Kaiba gets all evilish. I'll try to update quickly, but I make no promises.
