But anyway lets get on with the chapter and just in case I don't update every other day I just want to say Merry Christmas and Happy New Years! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: M owns nothing. She only owns her OC Blue and the ideas that run around her head. Lol. Enjoy!
Recap:
"FIVE!" Pegasus yelled, as the camera clicked. Pegasus mouth dropped open as he glanced at the photos preview on the camera's screen. Kaiba and Bakura glaring at each other, Yami making Tea giggle, Tristan looking scared as Joey tried to leave Mai to strangle him...A smile broke through Pegasus face. This was perfect!
"Wonderful! Wonderful!" Pegasus cheered clapping. "The photo came out simply marvelous! In fact I might consider posting it in my room as a memory!"
"Don't do that, Pegasus. Don't do that..." Blue said shaking her head. "That's creepy."
"Your right sweetie, I won't do that. But still the photo came out marvelous." Pegasus chattered as he started shooing everyone away. "Back into the changing room now! We need to do February." Pegasus smiled largely as everyone disappeared into the changing room. "Hmm...I wonder what to do for February..." Pegasus murmured, flipping through his idea notepad to the month of February.
Meanwhile, Joey and Tristan were going insane looking at the button down shirts they had to wear. "I am not wearing pink!" Joey shouted, enraged. "I am a man! And a man doesn't wear pink!
"Yeah! What he said!" Tristan agreed.
"Just put it on, dweebs." Kaiba scowled, buttoning down his white shirt. "I want to get this over with."
"I have to agree with Kaiba..." Yami said gently, a frown on his face as he buttoned the upper buttons of his white shirt, before unbuttoning them before a mirror, trying to decide how to go about it. "It is best just to get it over with. After all, it is not like you can get out of it..."
"But..." Joey's and Tristan's mouths fell open. How could Yami be siding with Kaiba of all people.
"Don't worry guys." Yugi smiled, fixing his sleeves. "The colors not that bad."
"I agree with Yugi." Ryou softly said, fixing his collar.
"That's cause you and Yug are all cute and stuff." Joey retaliated.
"The mutt is right." Bakura agreed, unbuttoning his top buttons completely, stretching the top to show more of his skin.
"I ain't no mutt!"
"If we were to put you in a dress Ryou, girls will still flock around you, stating how cute you are." As an afterthought, Bakura said "Yugi too." Ryou and Yugi's faces turned red as he grinned. "I on the other hand will never be caught alive wearing a pink shirt." Bakura scoffed, shaking his head at the mere thought.
"Your wearing one right now..." Kaiba dryly and monotoniously said, crossing his arms.
Bakura's shoulders tensed as he turned to stare at him. "Yes but if you were to recall I said I'll never be caught alive wearing a pink shirt. And as far as I know, I AM Dead!" Bakura smirked, seeing the creases next to Kaiba's eyes tightened. "Besides, unlike certain people, I look good in everything I wear." Bakura's smirk grew as he stuffed his hands in his black leather pockets.
"Are you boys ready?" Pegasus questioned, peeping his head in. "Your not!" His eyes narrowed as he marched in. "Stop talking and start dressing! The girls are already out and waiting for you!"
"The dog and his friend don't want to wear the pink shirts." Kaiba spoke, throwing on his black coat, fixing the collar as he looked at the mirror, pushing Yami out of the way. Stumbling back, Yami glared at Kaiba before pushing him out of the way, going back to examine his button crisis.
"You need to wear the pink shirts!" Pegasus cried. "If not my plan is ruined!" He paused, hearing Bakura's laughter along with Kaiba and Yami's arguing voices.
"They remind me of those showgirls..." Bakura crooned. "Only less prettier...and less female..."
"Bakura? When did you see showgirls?" Ryou questioned.
"Ah Ryou..." Bakura sighed, an indecent smile on his face, as he threw an arm around Ryou's shoulder, bringing him close to his side. "It was a wonderful night. A wonderful night indeed. You see...I snuck in after being throwned out for being underage. You should have seen those girls Ryou..." Bakura whistled, a glaze appearing in his eyes.
"NO!" Pegasus shouted, throwing himself at Bakura. "Do not ruin Ryou's innocence. I beg you! It's the only thing he has going for himself!"
"HEY!"
"I'm sorry Ryou but next to Yami, Kaiba, and Bakura...it really is the only thing you have going." Ryou sighed,feeling defeated, nodding his head, understanding the truth. It was his cuteness that had girls going gaga...but not the kind of gaga girls do for the mentioned men. None wanted to date him...only hug him...and pinch his cheeks...
"Now..." Pegasus turned around, ignoring Bakura's disgusted look as he continued to have his arms wrapped around his neck. "Why are these two fighting?" He cheerily asked, staring at Kaiba's icy face and Yami's enraged face, Yugi holding tightly to his arm, pulling him back as Yami leaned in towards Kaiba.
"Fighting for the mirror..." Bakura smirked.
"Wonderful!" Pegasus smiled, releasing Bakura. Clapping his hands, he giggiled. "Their getting into the spirit of things then. I'll be a good owner and stop the fight though." Sashaying over to stand between them, Pegasus put on a serious face. "Stop the fighting." He ordered. "You two look fine...now...get out there and win us some hearts!" Pegasus cheered throwing Kaiba and Yami out of the dressing room, by their necks. Nodding at the now pinkified clothed Joey and Tristan he made his way out of the room, the occupants behind him.
"Yami?" Tea stared, perplexed as Yami landed in front of her feet. Groaning, Yami leaned on his arms, looked up, his eyes widening as he met with Tea's legs. Slowly traveling his gaze up, all he saw was more legs, legs, and legs, until finally he started to see the ruby red thigh-high silk fabric of her dress. His eyes continued upward, his heart thudding louder every second until his gaze landed on her beautiful, concern face. Ra, she was beautiful. "Yami? Are you alright?" Tea questioned again, leaning over to see him better. Yami gulped, and shook his head, quickly getting up to his feet, gaze on the floor. Glancing back at Tea, Yami's breath caught, her face was so very close to his, he could feel her breath on his lips.
"Yami-dear!" Pegasus loud voice reverbrated throughout the room. "Don't forget your tie!" With a giggle he threw it, the tie, landing behind Tea. Startled, Tea look back, and seeing the tie, turned around and bent down, intending to get it. With a start, Yami backed up seeing a flash of black. Immediatly his hands gripped her hips as he pulled her up into his arms, her legs tangling with his, her arms wrapping around his neck.
"Yami!" She squealed. "What are you doing?"
"Getting you back in the changing room." He ordered darkly, taking a step.
"What!" She squeaked.
"This dress is too short." Yami growled, glaring at Bakura who was smirking creepily at Tea.
"Too short!"
"Yes. Tea...I saw your underclothes when you bent down and you are a lady. You can not be showing like that. Tea opened her mouth, intent on telling him that they were shorts when he spoke again. "I will make Pegasus pay to have you like this, after you change clothes." He spoke, his voice rumbling deeply in his chest, making Tea shiver and sigh with delight, her voice dying in her throat as she listened to his wonderful voice.
"What are you doing?" Mai questioned taking a step forward, blocking his path, red lipstick in her hand, Joey trailing behind her with lipstick stains all over his face, a happy, lazy smile on his lips.
"Taking Tea to change." Yami explained, taking a step sideways planning on brushing past her.
"What? The dress not short enough for ya?" Bakura jeered. "I have to agree then." Yami growled, his eyes darkening as his arms tightened around Tea, making her squeak with pain. Lessoning his grip, Yami turned to glare at Bakura.
"No. It is in fact too short."
Bakura scoffed. "Your such a priest." Kaiba glared, not knowing why he felt some type of offense at that comment. "What? What are you glaring at?"
"Too short? She's wearing shorts underneath it." Mai said. "I told her not too but she insisted on it being too short."
"Shorts?" Yami paused, confused. "As in black shorts." Mai nodded and Yami's face heated up. "Oh...I am sorry Tea for grabbing you like that..." He apologized profusely, slowly releasing her.
Face pink, Tea nodded accepting his apology.
"Hey man!" Tristan shouted, rushing over to them, stopping Tea from once again speaking. "What happened to you?" He questioned Joey. "Who kissed you all over?"
"Mai..." Joey breathed out, a dreamy look appearing on his face before he shook his head.
"What?"
"Pegasus wanted Joey to have lipstick marks." Mai explained.
"So you kissed him?"
"Well it was either me or Pegasus himself. So I took pity on Joey." Mai smiled, before taking out her compact mirror, and continued to put lipstick on. Tristan wiggled his eyebrows at Joey, causing Joey's face to turn red as he glared. "Well come on boys. Lets go before Pegasus gets his panties in a bunch." Mai ordered, closing the mirror and stuffing it back in her pocket, leaving Tea and Yami alone.
Glancing at the tie, in her hand, Tea smiled softly. "Here, let me help you with your tie..." Putting it over his head, she started to fix it.
"TEA! YAMI!" Pegasus shout made them jump. "Stop fixing his tie and come over here!" Immediatly Tea released Yami's tie and hurried off towards Pegasus. Yami breathed deeply before turning around and following her, his eyes stuck to her form like glue.
"Alright for this scene..since its February...its the month of love!" Pegasus cheered clapping his hands. "So I've taken the steps of making the set look like high school! Notice the gleaming green lockers, the plain floors, a school bell that works!" He said with glee, clicking a remote button making the school bell ring loudly. "Isn't this wonderful!" He said happily.
"Um...quick question..." Tristan said raising his hand. Pegasus nodded. "If this month is going to take place in school...why are we all dressed up?"
"Because its a school dance!" Blue shouted, entering the room with an oversized banner. "And can someone help me with this!" She complained tugging at the overly-size banner.
"Oh yes of course." Snapping his fingers, Pegasus turned his gaze on Joey and Tristan. "Don't just stand there. Help the cookie!" Joey and Tristan froze, glanced at each other, before rushing over to take the banner from Blue. "Alright now let me see here..." Pegasus hmmed, glancing around the room. "Alright, put the banner over the gym doors."
It took Joey and Tristan about ten minutes to set the banner up exactly how Pegasus wanted it and once it was ready, in less than five minutes Pegasus had placed everyone exactly where he wanted them. Tristan and Serenity, in a pink cocktail dress slow dancing, could be seen through one of the gym doors windows, Yugi was opening one of the gym doors for Rebecca who was entering in a knee-high shiny purple dress, Ryou dragging an angry Bakura in behind them. "Wait!" Pegasus shouted, throwing his papers everywhere. "Stop the production!" he shouted, jumping out of his chair. "I hate it! I hate it!" Pegasus shouted, hands clenched as he stomped his foot.
"Pegasus. Relax..." Blue sweatdropped, taking advantage of his empty chair, and climbing onto it. "What don't you like about this picture?"
"I don't...know..." Pegasus wailed, shaking his head. "I just...I just...I just find it too much..."
"So we're finished for the day..." Kaiba stated bluntly slowly walking out of the room.
"Really? We are?" Bakura perked up. "Excellent. Goodbye you weaklings..." Bakura smirked, pulling a distressed Ryou with him.
"Did they just leave?" Tristan questioned, his mouth dropping open.
"I don't think they were suppose to..." Joey answered, staring at the doors.
"I hate it...I hate it...I hate it..." Pegasus whispered, hands in his hair, distressed.
Blue raised an eyebrow. "Okay then..." she muttered, looking at the scene before her. It was time to take things into her own hands. "Joey, Tristan!" she barked, getting their attention. "Go to the prop room and get the two big 3D hearts and place them on both sides of the banner."
"Where's the prop room?" Blue pointed, eyes closing as she thought about what else to do. "Okay...Tea go lean against the locker in the corner. Yami go with her." Blue ordered walking over to them.
"Are you taking over?" Yugi questioned. Blue nodded. "Okay then..." he said, Rebecca pulling him insistently out of the way.
"Come on Yugi. Lets go help them find the hearts." Yugi nodded, allowing Rebecca to drag him off the stage.
"Um..." Blue narrowed her eyes as she stared at Tea and Yami just standing awkwardly against the dark corner of the lockers. She snapped her fingers. "I got it! Alright, Tea lean against the locker and Yami put your arm next to her head and lean in."
"What are YOU doing!" Pegasus shouted, flames erupting in his eyes as he zoomed over to Blue. "This is my production!" He shouted, glaring at Blue. Instinctively, Yami took a step forward, prepared to defend the weak but Tea's hand gripped his wrist. Looking back,questionably, Tea shook her head, and nodded towards Blue. Raising his eyebrow, Yami looked over to see Blue handling Pegasus amazingly.
Unimpressed, Blue crossed her arms under her chest, staring him down. "If you don't do your job, you get replaced." Blue whispered, her eyes blazing into his. "So either man up and do it right or I take over" she threatened. Pegasus's eyes narrowed into a glare.
"Your on!" He seethed, turning to stare at Yami and Tea. Blue smirked and walked away, knowing that the perfect way to get Pegasus's brain juices flowing was competition. "I have it!" He shouted. "I'll only use Yami, Tea, Joey, and Mai for this scene. Everyone else is dismissed!" He ordered, shooing everyone away. "Alright first I'll do Mai and Joey. Everyone leave the room. I want privacy with them."
"So what do ya want us to do?" Joey questioned.
"Since Mai has coated your face with kisses I want Mai to be walking away, holding this medium sized heart-shaped chocolate box." Pegasus ordered, handing over a white with a bright red ribbon wrapped around it box to Mai. Now Joey...here's a bouquet of red roses, your going to be holding them loosely at your side as you chase after her...I need a lovesick face on you, and Mai I want you to have this knowing, mischievous look on your face. Turn your head slightly to the right, to look like your glancing behind you." With a snap Pegasus had snapped the photo. "Perfect! Now call Yami and Tea in when you leave please."
"Alright...now I know Tea sweetie that your a shy, innocent girl...and Yami...your not prone in showing emotion...but I need you guys to drop that act..."
"What?" Tea asked confused. "What do you mean?"
"I'm not sure how you guys will feel with the pose I need you to do but it is a must for this month."
"What is it?" Yami questioned, apprehension in his voice, as he started feeling restless.
"I need Tea to lean against the lockers, Yami get close...no, closer...closer...closer... yes perfect." Pegasus breathed, eyes sparkling with mischievous delight as Yami and Tea were pressed so close together it seemed almost as if they were one. "Actually...Yami back up a bit I can hardly see Tea's dress with you that close. Yes perfect." Pegasus paused seeing how Tea's face slowly started to turn red as she stared into Yami's eyes.
"Now I want you to have one hand on her neck and lean your face in until your noses touch. Alright now Tea put your hand against his neck and one on his tie. No wait...loosen his tie a bit...just pull it sweetie...its that easy. Alright perfect now keep your hand their like your pulling it to get him closer to you..." Pegasus ordered. "Alright now..." he paused looking at how close they were. "Hmm...you know what Yami move your head closer."
"But then our lips will be..." Yami started to say but Pegasus waved him away.
"Yes yes I know your lips will be brushing but that's the point. I mean this is for February, the month of love. Now do it." Yami looked at Tea. She nodded her head slightly, and he leaned in a bit more his tense body relaxing as Tea rubbed his neck softly.
"Are you okay with this?" Yami questioned, his eyes slightly hooding as he stared into her beautiful eyes that compelled him to no end. Tea nodded her head, her own eyes getting slightly hooded.
"Yes..." she whispered feeling a shiver run through her body as his lips brushed hers repeatedly. "you?"
"Yes...though leaning down is giving my neck cramps..." Yami tried for a joke but it completely passed over Tea's head. Taking him seriously, concern grew in Tea's eyes.
"Well then..." Tea's eyes moved over to Pegasus who was busy looking for the bouqet of roses Joey had used along with a red, large-sized, heart-shaped chocolate box with a white ribbon. "Maybe this will help..." Tea whispered, gulping, her heart pounding in her ears as courage appeared in her, from where, she doesn't know as she moved her left leg and hitched it up on his hip.
"Tea!" Yami said, surprise and shock in his voice as Tea's dress rode up slightly more.
"Grab my leg." Tea ordered.
"But Tea..." Flustered, Yami said, his face turning red.
"Just do it..." Tea said, her face turning bright red. Gulping, blood rushing to his head, Yami hesitantly placed his hand under her knee, holding her in place."Alright I'm going to jump and I need you to get a little bit closer so I can hold myself up with my other leg." With a quick nod from Yami, Tea jumped, and he pressed closer, helping her body stay up higher on the wall, her leg braced on it. Yami still had to crane his neck down a bit but it was less than before.
"I found it!" Pegasus happily said going over, his mouth dropping open. "What the-" Pegasus incomplete question went unheard as Yami and Tea were lost in each others eyes, the closeness they had warming their hearts and their faces. They were in their own little world. Quietly, Pegasus crouched down and placed the roses and chocolate on the floor. Almost as if he was trying to make it seem that Tea had dropped the gifts Yami had given her in exchange for a kiss...
With the most mischievious smile on his face Pegasus titpoed to the camera, zoomed in slightly and took the photo. "Wonderful session my friends." He crowed smiling quite proudly as he quickly added Mai and Joey's Picture to the calendar with Yami and Tea's above them towards the left. Adding a heart frame around each photo made this scene perfect.
"Wait what?" Yami and Tea said at once, eyes blinking as they quickly separated, faces as bright as ever.
"Hmm..." Pegasus looked up at them. "Uh...I decided not to use you...so you can go..." Pegasus lied, waving them off. Confused, they nodded before slowly walking out of the room, a sudden awkward tension of space between them as they shyly glanced at each other as Yami closed the door.
Pegasus grinned, money signs appearing in his eyes as he thought of how much he would make just selling this photo of Yami and Tea...of course people would think it was Yugi...he deflated realising he wouldn't make much money if he said it was Yugi's cousin...but then again...Yami was not ugly...and more girls other than Tea must find him irresistable...his smile grew. It would sell...but he won't sell it separately...at least not yet...it needs to come out in the calendar first...
His phone rang and upon glancing at it, he frowned. Oh yes, he forgot, he needs to get Kaiba and Yami their own rooms...or does he? A wicked grin slowly appeared on his face as he laughed gleefully, slowly making his way to the back room at the thoughts running through his head.
