Chapter 7

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. After about five beeps, Kaiba turned off his alarm clock and got out of bed and into the bathroom to take a shower. Twelve minutes later, Seto stepped out of the shower, wrapped a towel around his waist, brushed his teeth (knowing that he wouldn't be eating breakfast) and combed his hair. Then Kaiba walked back into his bedroom and started getting dressed into his school uniform. After he was finished, he slowly walked over to his bed and woke me up by saying "Aisha, its time to wake up. Come on Aisha, wake up we have to go to school." Very slowly my eyes began to open up to see Seto standing above me in his school uniform. I quickly stretched, sat up and suddenly exclaimed in utter surprise "Oh man! My school uniform is at my house!"

Seto just merrily smiled a rare smile at me and said "Don't worry, I'll go get it. I just need your house key." I smiled back at him softly and said, "It's on the coffee table out in the living room." He just simply said back to me, "Okay, while I'm gone you can take a shower and also, don't forget to wake up Mokuba." I tried to hold back a yawn, but couldn't before saying, "Don't worry Seto I wont." So before he was about to leave, I quickly, but gracefully, stood up, and walked over to where he was standing. Then, I gave him a sweet passionate kiss on the lips. But, as we were kissing, I thought that I heard a faint sound of a click, like someone taking a photograph of us. Suddenly that thought was erased from my mind immediately as Seto pulled me closer to him. We both slowly parted for a few minutes panting hardly for breath, slightly forgetting that we'd both suffocate without it. Anyway, back to the story, Seto smiled down at me for a quick second before thoroughly kissing me hard and full of passion, desire, and lust as well as uncontrollable love. Yet again I thought that I heard another faint click, but I just sent that thought to the back of my mind.

Then slowly, yet seductively, I walked over to Seto's bathroom and stopped at the door to see Seto still standing in his room just staring at me like O.O except he had blush coming over his face. So I turned ever so slowly and walked into the bathroom for a shower closing the door after me. As soon as the shower was turned on, Seto merrily smiled to himself for a few moments thinking of how easily I could get him filled with lust and desire so quickly than the other high school girls. But that smile quickly turned into a frown as he suddenly remembered his dream. Kaiba sighed quietly to himself before walking out of the room, down the stairs towards the living room, and grabbing my keys on his way out. About fourteen minutes later, Seto arrived at my house. He unlocked my door, ran up the stairs to my bedroom, grabbed my uniform as well as my shoes and quickly ran out of my house after locking my door behind him. Close to about ten minutes later, he opened the front door to his mansion to find Mokuba up and ready reading a magazine.

He smiled at Mokuba who smiled right back, closed the front door and quickly walked up the stairs towards his room. Once he reached his bedroom, he softly opened the door to find his room empty and the shower still on. So he walked over to his bed and placed my uniform and shoes on it, then he quickly but quietly left the bedroom. Suddenly, I came out of the bathroom in a towel, saw my uniform and shoes (along with my undergarments) on Seto's bed. Seven minutes later, I casually walked out of Seto's bedroom and down the stairs to see both Mokuba and Seto waiting patiently for me. I smiled at them and they both got up and we grabbed our school bags. Next, we all walked out of the Mansion, towards his awaiting limo in the driveway, got in and the driver then started the engine. After the engine was started, he slowly pulled out of the driveway and onto the road towards Mokuba's elementary school.

After we dropped off Mokuba, Seto the asked me "Aisha, can I come over to your house after school today?" I looked straight at him and said "Huh? Oh! Sure I guess if you want to, I don't mind." He nodded and once we were a couple of feet away from school he said in a serious tone "Remember Aisha, you call me Kaiba and I call you Himura. Only at school got it?" I smiled softly at him before nodding a yes in understanding. Once we reached the school, both Kaiba and I got out of his limo in front of the schoolyard. Before the limo drove off, Kaiba walked over to the limo driver and said, "Don't pick me up today. When you pick up my little brother, tell him that I went to a friend's house. He'll know what I'm talking about." The driver nodded and drove off to who knows where until he had to pick up Mr. Kaiba's little brother.

Just then, as Kaiba and I were walking towards the school, everyone including Yugi and his friends were staring at us like O.O while a group of cheerleaders were glaring at me evilly. I just ignored them and continued walking next to Kaiba towards the entrance of the school. He and I both stopped at our lockers (which were next to each other) and got our books for the first few classes. After that once we reached our homeroom class, Joey pulled me aside and asked quietly so that Kaiba couldn't hear him, "Aisha, what's up with you and Kaiba coming to school and walking together all of a sudden, like your going out?" I glared at Joey and snapped "That's none of your business Joey! Besides, so what if Kaiba and I were coming to school together, you shouldn't be sticking your nose where it doesn't belong. In my business! I can take care of myself, and I don't need you telling me whom I can and cannot go to school with! So just drop it!" Now with that being said, I quietly took my seat infront of Kaiba. Not long after a few classes, it was time for lunch. During lunch, I sat down with Yugi and his friends (even Joey after I forgave in our last class) making a good conversation. Strangely though, during lunch I felt as if someone was staring, no more like glaring at me but when I looked around, I saw everyone eating and having a good time. So I just put that thought behind me and finished my lunch quickly.

After a few more classes, the bell finally rang signaling for us to go home. After I got my homework written down and the books I needed, I slowly walked down the hallway and out of the school building. Now as I was walking across the schoolyard, I saw Kaiba waiting patiently for me at the gate entrance of the school. Once I was by his side, he and I began walking down the sidewalk side-by-side in silence towards my house. After a while of walking, we finally reached my house after the much stares and whispers that were said about us walking together. I quickly unlocked my front door and closed it after us once we both were inside. I quickly told Kaiba.. I mean Seto that he could hang up his blue uniform jacket on the coat rack while I ordered us some pizza. He quickly hung up his jacket and took a good look around my living room. He saw that I had a couch, loveseat, about two chairs around a small table with a chess board game on it set up and ready to play. Next, he slowly looked at the pictures hanging on my wall.

One picture of my parents (Ryoko-Tenchi Muyo! And Turles-Dragon Ball Z movie: The Doom Tree) two of Yugi and his lackey's and one of myself as a child wearing a dark navy blue Kimono top, white hakama pants, socks same color as the Kimono top and sandals.

Upon closer inspection, Seto noticed that I had my hair up in a high ponytail, many multiple bruises and wounds from fighting, and that I had two swords with me. He knew that I was holding a Japanese Katana, but he couldn't see what the other sword was. Suddenly, Seto got a cold shiver going down his spine once he looked more closely at the picture of my face.

I had a cross-shaped scar on the side of my left cheek and an unemotional look on my face. But what really gave him the shivers, was that my eyes were a bright amber (golden) color that betrayed nothing but the promise of a sudden and painful death by my sword if you got in my way of destroying my prey. Seto shakily swallowed nervously at seeing me like this as a child and wondered if what his stepfather had said about the revolution ten years ago was true. Suddenly, a cleared throat interrupted his train of thought, and he turned around to find me staring at him with a (what are you doing?) expression on my face. I sighed softly while shaking my head and walked over to my couch lazily flopping down on it. Seto walked over to my couch as well and sat down next to me slightly nervous remembering the picture that he had just seen.

We just sat there on my couch in silence for awhile, but that didn't last long as my doorbell rang. I got up with the pizza money in my hand, quickly paid the delivery pizza guy, and sat back down in the living room on the couch. Close to about three slices of pizza later, Seto suddenly asked urgently "Aisha, did you and Bakura sleep together?" once that question came out of his mouth I immediately stopped moving in shock. Then as my eyes began to water up with a fountain of tears, I answered in an almost broken voice "No. He raped me! He raped me while I was unconscious. He only did that because I didn't tell him where the Ancient Egyptian God cards were. Miss. Isis entrusted me personally with these cards to look after them for her and to not let anybody know where they were no matter what the cost. So I didn't tell him, and when I woke up, I saw that I was bare, had a few bruises on my stomach and that he was getting dressed in my room!" I couldn't say anymore for remembering what had happened had indeed hurt me deeply and Seto could clearly see that it took a toll on me. So as I cried like a lost, scared, and confused child, Seto just wrapped his arms around me protectively and comfortingly whispering little things that would make me feel better and letting me know that I was safe in his arms.
