I'd like to say my life is bad, but everything I do seems to contradict everything that I don't. I am so confused, so hurt, and so tired. I feel like a horrible person for wanting to break up Yugi and Ishizu. I have a right to feel love, we all do. But I can't sit idley and watch my life crumble, at least when I was a stripper I had a little bit of stability. Right now I need someone to lean on and cry on, and just...

"Serenity, Rebecca, it hurts so much." Tea cried into the couch. Serenity and Rebecca were sitting opposite of her.
"It'll be okay." Serenity said. "I swear it Tea."
"I have done so many completely wrong things. I have desecrated myself over and over, and over. And all I have to show off is this apartment, which I have never had to pay a dime on."
Serenity perked up. "Well than, pay the rent for this month. The owner can't charge you for any of the months, because well...you were sleeping with him...so that may not hold up in court...ah..."
Rebecca rolled her eyes. "Just pay the rent for this month, and get a job."
"I have a great job for you!" Serenity giggled. "My bathing suit line sales have sky rocketed! I want you to be my permanent Complete Serenity spokeswoman!"
Tea sat up. "Really?"
"Yeah." Serenity smiled.
"I'll do it." Tea said grimly. "Maybe now I'll have something."
"You always had us." Rebecca said slowly. "And you always will."

She had a job, and a home. It was a start, she waited six years to be whole, now it was time to act, to not be cowardly and depend on Yugi to make it all better.
She most likely blew it with Butch, so that was out of thequestion, but the least she could do would be to move on.
"Hello." Kaiba answered.
She felt like an idiot. "Kaiba, this is Tea, I don't want to act all clingy or wierd or..."
"Get on with it."
"Would you go out with me?" Tea hesitated. "As friends." She added in quickly.
"Why would I do that?"
Tea didn't want to fight dirty, but she was desperate to go out with a guy that wasn't married, like Joey or Tristan. "I saved your life, thats why!"
"Fine, but I won't be seen in a shaggy, rundown place. Only top of the line."
"Okay." She said, feeling a little bit better.
"My secretary will call you with the details." Kaiba informed as he hung up the phone.
Tea rolled her eyes. Always with the secretaries.
