Secrets Revealed
(Rori's POV)
I open my eyes to find myself in a fancy bedroom. How did I get here? Last thing I remember was being underwater... and Seto rescuing me... and being carried into a helicopter... and then I passed out.
I hear voices. Yugi. And Joey. And Teá, Tristan, Duke and Serenity. They're heading down the hall. I'll join them in a few minutes. There's something that I have to do first. I get up out of the bed and take off my top. I peel off the plasters on my body and change into a crop top that stops at my end of my ribcage. One last thing to do. I brush out my hair, then reach for a pair of scissors.
(Mokuba's POV)
Everything's going good so far. Everyone is here. The tournament semi- finals can get started at last! I wonder how Rori's doing. Hope she's feeling okay. I stare out at the view with all the others. 'The lights are so pretty. Thanks for bringing me, Joey.' Serenity says. 'Just one of the many perks of being related to a champion.' laughs Joey. Three... two... one... 'You call yourself a champion Wheeler? You're here by a fluke' says Seto. Here we go again... I sigh and turn away- and gasp. 'Holy moly! Look at Rori!' I say.
(Seto's POV)
'Holy moly! Look at Rori!' I hear Mokuba say. I turn around to look... and my mouth drops open in shock. Everyone gasps and stares. Rori smiles at us all. She looks incredible!
Her hair is no longer down to her waist. It's now up to the centre of her neck, in a cute, messy style. And then there's another surprise. Rori now has not one, not two, but three tattoos! A Dark Magician on the left side of her stomach, a Red – Eyes Black Dragon on the right side, and a Blue – Eyes White Dragon on the right side of her neck.
(Rori's POV)
Everyone's staring at me. I smile at them all. 'Rori...you look amazing!' says Yugi. 'When did you get those tattoos?' asks Joey. 'I had to get something to cover up my scar, so I went for a tattoo.' I tell him. 'But why three tattoos?' asks Tristan. 'I couldn't decide which one to get, so I got three.'
(Seto's POV)
I could stare at her all evening. Aurora Moto has me transfixed. Then I see two of the geeks, Tristan and Duke, drooling. I scowl and have to grip my elbows tight to stop me from attacking them. I watch Mokuba whisper to Rori. 'It was a bit painful.' she whispers. I lean down to my little brother. 'If you think you're getting a tattoo, little brother, think again.' I whisper. 'I wasn't!' he says.
(Rori's POV)
There's an hour before the first duel is to begin. For now we're all to go into our rooms. 'Get out you guys! C'mon!' What's going on? I peep into Joey's room. Oh boy! Tristan, Duke and Teá are making havoc. Only one thing to do. I let out a piercing whistle which makes them stop immediately. 'If you guys gotta have to act like monkeys, do it in my room for now.' I say. 'Yes, Rori.' they say and they head off. Joey grins at me. 'Thanks Ro.' he says. Serenity smiles at me. 'I'll see you two later.' I grin and head off down the corridor.
I'm just going past one of the rooms when a door slides open and pulls me inside. I gasp as someone puts their hand over my mouth. 'At long last, I have you on your own.' they say. 'That eager were you Seto?' I smile, turning around to face him. 'You could say that.' he smirks, closing the door.
(Seto's POV)
I grip her arms, my eyes sliding over her cropped short hair, the Blue Eyes White Dragon on her neck, the Red Eyes Black Dragon and the Dark Magician on her stomach, then back up to her eyes. 'I must say, I love your new look, my love.' I whisper. 'Do you really like it?' she asks. 'I do, you look beautiful.' I tell her and I mean it. She really does look beautiful. So much so, she makes my heart beat faster.
I can't take it. My hands drop to her hips, crushing her against me. I press my lips against hers, pulling her closer, deepening the kiss. Rori knots her fingers in my hair, begging for more. I let out a little moan. I want her so badly it hurts. It does hurt. Ow, they're hurting. Oh please no, not now.
(Rori's POV)
Seto suddenly pulls out of the kiss, wincing in pain. 'Seto, what's wrong?' I ask. 'I'm sorry, sweetheart. I'm just in a bit of pain.' he whispers. 'Where does it hurt? Tell me.' I say. He looks at me. 'If I show you, will you promise not to tell anybody?' he asks. 'I promise, I promise.' I say.
I watch as Seto takes off his trenchcoat, then pulls his top over his head and drops it on the ground. Oh boy. I didn't think a CEO like Seto Kaiba would have an amazing body. Turn he turns around and I gasp in shock and horror.
Seto's back is absolutely covered all over with scars. They look like belt marks. 'What happened to you?' I say. 'My stepfather Gozaburo Kaiba, inflicted this pain on me when I was younger. No matter what I did, I could never please him. So he would beat me. I didn't mind though. As long as he didn't beat Mokuba, I wouldn't care how many beatings I got. Sometimes they still hurt. Like now.' he tells me.
(Seto's POV)
The scars on my back will remain there until I die. They'll always be a reminder of what I went through because of that bastard Gozaburo. 'Seto...' whispers Rori. I tense as she touches one of my scars. Her fingers brush against it. That feels so good. 'Rori...' I murmur then she presses her lips against the scar. I close my eyes as she works her way over my scars, then to my neck. I can't take it. I pull her head back and crush my lips with hers. Rori touches my face, giving into me.
(Rori's POV)
I trace my fingers gently across his collarbone, down his chest, his stomach, then back up again. 'Seto...' I moan. He tilts my head, his tongue licking my neck, making me moan softly. Seto trails his tongue up my neck, then back to my mouth. 'When can we have this?' I whisper. 'Very soon, my sweetheart, I promise. I promise.' he answers.
'Where's Rori?' calls a voice down the corridor. Uh-oh! Seto quickly pulls his top and trenchcoat back on, then looks at me. 'Look's like it's time for Plan B' he whispers.
(Yugi's POV)
We walk down the corridor looking for my sister. Where is she? Oh no does Marik have her? Suddenly we hear shouting, coming from Kaiba's room. Rori's in there. The door slides open and an angry looking Rori walks out. 'What kind of person are you Kaiba?' she asks crossly. Kaiba just glares at her. 'Better not ask what happened.' I whisper to the others. We follow Mokuba down the corridor where the selection will take place.
(Rori's POV)
Phew, that was close. I head down the corridor behind the others, Seto- I mean Kaiba!- follows me. Out of sight of everyone else, he grabs my hand and presses it to his lips. He winks at me before it's time to going back to being enemies.
Now who's facing who first? I wonder...
To Be Continued! I won't be updating for a while because I've got exams coming up so enjoy this for the time being! R+R!
