Chapter Seven- Rain Drops of Love...
"Okay," Mokuba said as he wrote down so guests on a piece of paper, a phone was in his left hand. "Are you sure this will work, Serenity?"
Serenity sighed on the other end of the line, "I hope so because his birthday is tomorrow!"
"I know, but..."
"But what?" Serenity asked the younger Kaiba.
"But what if he finds out?"
"Find out what, Mokuba?" Kaiba sneered behind him, Mokuba froze and stumbled to Serenity, "I-I'm sorry, but I have to go..."
"Alright, bye."
"Bye." Mokuba said as he hung up, he slowly turned around to meet the eyes of his older brother.
"Who was that Mokuba?" He asked, raising and eyebrow, "And what are you writing?"
"Uh...I..." Mokuba stammered, he broke eye contact and grabbed the piece of paper of the table, and then he ran up to his room.
Kaiba just stared at his departing figure and decided to check the caller id, to make sure that Mokuba wasn't doing anything uncalled for.
He was surprised at the number the showed up, it wasn't any number that Kaiba's ever seen before. Wait, He thought, picking up the phone and slowly dialing the number, Why does this number seem familiar?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Hey, Seren?" Joey called, walking out of the bathroom; he had just taken a shower and a robe was wrapped around him. "I have a question for you."
"What is it, Joey?" Serenity asked, walking up to her brother. She had a cup of coffee in her hands.
"Is it true that Yugi's going out with Tea?"
Serenity couldn't keep her laughter in, "Of course, Joey!" She gasped between giggles, "Nobody told you?"
"Yugi told me yesterday," He looked at her suspiciously, "How did you know?"
"Let's just say...a little birdie told me..." Serenity snickered softly, draining the last of her coffee out of her coffee cup and walked back over to the kitchen and placing it in the sink.
"Who told you?!" He demanded, but Serenity didn't have to answer his question because phone had started ringing.
"Hello, Wheeler residence?" Serenity answered in her polite way, shooing Joey off to his bedroom to get dressed.
Oh, now I know why... He thought.
"Funny, you never said that the last time I called..." Came his voice, Serenity knew exactly who it was.
"Hello, Kaiba." She replied in a cheerful voice, "I suppose Mokuba gave you my number?"
"No, I checked the called id," He replied with a grin, "Why were you talking to him anyway?"
Serenity froze; she couldn't let Kaiba know about his surprise birthday party tomorrow. Mokuba had called her to ask who they think who should come to the party. They just decided that Yugi and the rest of the gang should all meet at the game shop.
"Hmm?" Kaiba's protest broke through her train of thoughts,
"Why?"
"Well, I-I...uh..." She started, but couldn't finish.
"Okay," Kaiba said, dropping the subject, "Have you thought about that job offer yet?" Then his voice turned into a sarcastic whine, "I really need a Secretary..."
Serenity giggled, rolled her eyes and shifted the phone to her other ear, then she made sure Joey wasn't around, "I guess I could take it, I mean, I haven't found any other one..." She knew that Kaiba purposely met her on the streets everyday just to hound her about it. She found it quite cute...
"Hello?"
"Oh, sorry..." Serenity mumbled back, and then checked her watch, 12:01 in the afternoon, Mai should be up...
"Hey, Kaiba?" Serenity managed to get out over all these emotions flowing inside of her.
"Yeah?"
"I need to go, I have to meet Mai."
"Alright," Kaiba sighed, "You can start your job next week, top floor, 7:00am."
Serenity giggled, "Alright, Alright, I'll be there."
Kaiba couldn't help but smiled, "Bye." He mumbled in to the receiver before hanging up. He actually couldn't picture his life without her... What am I thinking!?! He thought, shaking his head, She would never like me...
When Serenity hung up, she picked up the phone again to call Mai and tell her that she was coming over, and that she once again, had a job.
"Hey, Joey?" She called down the small apartment hallway,
"I'm going to Mai's, so I'll see you later!"
At the mention of Mai's name, Joey opened the door to his bedroom and peeked his head out, "Can you tell her 'hi' for me?" He asked, blushing a little. He had to be at work in about 30 minutes, so he couldn't tag along with his smaller sibling.
"Sure, Joey." She said as she left the tiny apartment. Joey and Mai finally got together just last week, when they both told Serenity that they had feelings for each other.
Once she had made it to the sidewalk, she began her way down the block to Mai's house, which was about four blocks away. Serenity sighed at the travel ahead of her when a blue limousine stopped beside her.
"I just had to harass you one last time before you became my secretary tomorrow..." Kaiba said, rolling down the window.
"I'm going to have to get a new apartment..." She replied with heat rising up to her cheeks, "You stop by too much!"
Kaiba chucked, "You never told me what you and Mokuba were talking about, so I guess I came to ask you about that as well."
Serenity gasped and turned away, "I'm not going to tell you..." She stated simply, "You are just going to have to find out."
Kaiba rolled his eyes, an idea forming in his mind.
"Let me guess," Serenity said, interrupting Kaiba's thoughts, "'You were just heading over to Kaiba Corp. and would like to give me a ride?'"
Kaiba was shocked.
"How did you know?" He asked, opening the door of his limo; Serenity smiled and slipped into the seat next to him.
"Well, I combined it with the fact that I need a ride to Mai's..." Her voice trailed off as she smirked at him, "And with that look on your face, I just guessed that was what you were thinking!"
Kaiba shook his head, "I think that you know me too well!"
Serenity laughed and looked into Kaiba's icy blue eyes, Kaiba was caught off guard when he saw the fiery passion burning within Serenity's, "You sure are fiery today." He stated what he saw into words.
"Well, the truth is..." She started, but then lent closer to Kaiba, "I had coffee this morning." She whispered into his ear, her hot breath ticking his senses.
"I can tell." He replied; pulling back and coughing awkwardly; no girl has ever affected him like this before.
Suddenly, the office memories came flooding back into his mind. I've got to get a hold of myself... He thought, and then he smirked at it, Before she does...
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mai was sitting on a chair on her porch reading a magazine, she was waiting on the big news that Serenity said she would tell her once she got there; and that was going to be awhile, since she had to walk.
As soon as Mai turned the page of her magazine, she noticed that a blue limousine pulled up and Serenity was stepping out of it. Mai's eyes grew wide when she saw Serenity kiss the cheek of the person that gave her the ride; Seto Kaiba.
Okay, what's she up to? Mai wondered as Serenity made her way to the porch, That's the second time I've seen them kiss...
"Care to explain?" Mai asked when Serenity sat down in the chair beside her, and waved the limo off.
"About what?" Serenity countered, turning to Mai and putting on her best 'innocence' face.
"About you and Kaiba!" Mai practically yelled, throwing up her arms; the magazine flying out of her hands. "How long has this been going on!?!"
"Mai!" Serenity yelled, tears filling her eyes. "I thought you would understand..." She whispered.
Mai stopped and stared at her heartbroken friend, "Oh...Serenity, I'm sorry..."
"It's okay," Serenity replied, "By the way, Joey told me to tell you 'hi'."
"Oh..." Mai whispered, turning her head to the side and blushing. "He didn't have to do that..."
Serenity smirked, "And you think me liking Kaiba is bad..." She mumbled.
"But this is Kaiba we're talking about, what will Joey think?" Mai replied, giving her a worried look, "Don't you think he will get suspicious?"
An awkward silence followed this...
"So," Mai said, to break this uncomfortable silence between them, "How has your 'job hunting' been?"
Serenity's face went horror stricken as she turned and faced Mai again; who actually read what was on her mind, "You took a job from Kaiba?!?"
"He's been asking me about it form weeks, Mai, what was I supposed to do?!"
"Not take it!" Then she saw Serenity's face fall, "You confuse even me sometimes Serenity! What are we going to do with you?"
Laughter played its way on Serenity's face, "Sometimes I don't even know what I'm getting myself into!"
Both Mai and Serenity busted out laughing.
"Hey, I need to ask a favor..." Serenity started as she thought about Kaiba's birthday tomorrow.
"Sure, what is it?"
"Well, Kaiba's birthday's tomorrow and Mokuba and I thought the gang could all meet up at the game shop and surprise him..."
"You're kidding...right?" Mai asked with a shocked expression on her face. "And you want me to go to this?"
"Yes! Or you could just go on a date with Joey and keep him away from the party..."
"I'm there." Mai mumbled, "How are you going to keep Joey away?"
"Tristan and Duke decided to take him for one of those 'guy's night out's'."
"In other words, just get him to hang out at his apartment and get him drunk?"
"Mai!" Serenity teased, "Actually, I don't know want they were going to do...they never told me..."
"Trust me hon, that's what they're going to do."
"I hope not..." Serenity replied, shaking improper thoughts out of her head, "Yugi, Mokuba and I agreed to it, you and Tea are invited."
"Oh, joy..." Mai mumbled, "So, tell my about this new job of yours..." She said; a smirk plastered to her face.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Mokuba, I'm not going!" Kaiba argued with his younger sibling.
"Please Seto; I know Serenity's going to be there..." He mumbled almost under his breath.
"Serenity?"
"Yeah, Seto, she thought of it..."
"Is that so..." Kaiba mumbled to himself. He couldn't help but think what would happen if he went to this little get-together.
But on the other side of the desk, Mokuba was just complimenting himself, in his head, to get his big brother together with a girl he was very fond of. Nobody possibly couldn't like Serenity; she was sweet, caring, and kind. This is perfect! Mokuba thought...
"Alright Mokuba, I'll go..."

Rain Drops of Love
By: Serenity Wheeler
It's Raining,
And you are here beside me,
Caressing my neck,
With your warm hands...
We always get together on Rainy Days,
Kissing under the Darkening Sky,
Never listening to our other thoughts,
That tries to plea us apart...
I'm glad we found each other,
Because I never want to part,
Never want you to go away,
Or I'll have an empty filled Heart...
The first flower I ever saw,
Was a Rose,
You said the soft petals felt like my skin,
I hushed you with a Kiss...
Ever since I first saw you,
You opened up my Heart,
I opened up your Heart,
And we spent our life together...
I Love You,
Those three little words,
Can mean so much,
When they come out of your mouth...
Only you,
Can get this kind of emotion out of me,
No one else ever had,
You are the only one that has ever tried...
I felt it when our Hearts merged together,
Because you Loved me,
And for that,
I'm thankful...
The Rain is pounding harder that ever,
On the roof,
Where we stand,
Dripping wet of Rain soaked Love...
Rain Drops of Love,
That's what we have,
And I never want it,
To End...
I move away your soaked brown bangs,
Your eyes sparkle back at me,
Raining Love is in them,
I can read it on your face...
Then our wet lips touch,
We only hear the sound of Rain,
The pleas of our thoughts are gone,
Never to Return...
Rain Drops of Love,
I will never forget it,
Because I Love You,
And nothing can change it...
Rain on, Drops of Love...
Serenity shut her notebook when she was finished with the poem. She really hoped the Kaiba felt the same way about her as she did him. Like I have a chance! She thought bitterly, I'm probably just one of those 'fan girls.' I bet he doesn't think of me that way...
Serenity let the tears fall as she climbed into her bed, and then a thought hit her. If Kaiba doesn't like me then why did he invite me to that dinner party? Then, Correction! Mokuba set us up, maybe he didn't call it off because he thought it would hurt my feelings...
Serenity buried her face into her pillow and cried herself to sleep.
But the one thing she didn't know is that Seto Kaiba was sitting at his desk at Kaiba Corp. and he was thinking the exact opposite of what Serenity had just willed herself to believe...
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
End of Chapter Seven
The poem 'Rain Drops of Love' was made by me! I wrote it earlier this year, and I thought it would be perfect for this chapter! (and to express how Serenity feels about him...)
Well, I'll see you next time! And sorry again about the late update!!!
