( Tanx for all the reviews. Hope you like this chappie! I added a little something for KuwaiGirl and all Bakura luvers. Keep R&R)



Disclaimers: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh. It would be cool to borrow Kaiba for deleting viruses.......and ....... Oh, I'll stop bothering everyone and begin the chapter!



The tension seemed to grow and grow every second. What will I do? What can I do? There's

only so little. Every second the agony worsens. Kaiba, give me a break. You can delete data-

eating viruses, control a multi-million corporation, become the World Champion Of Duel

Monsters, but you can't save the people you love. Wait a second, love. That's what I feel and am

in. I have to remember what's in my heart, something that I haven't done for a long time. If that

Peter guy thinks he can wreck my life, he's wrong. How dare he make a threat to me, Téa, the

company, and my reputation! I'll be pawn in this chess game, but soon I'll checkmate and win

this game once and for all. I'll make him see why no one messes with Seto Kaiba.



" Peter, can you leave us alone for a second?"

" Be quick, I'll have new propositions and new ways to make you suffer." Peter threw back his

head and laughed.

He slammed the door behind him as he went out.



" Téa, I can't fire you, but I can't let Peter destroy my company and everything that I ever worked

for. " Kaiba lowered his head , he had no idea what to do.

" I know, it's a constant battle with your heart and your mind. " Tears swelled up in her eyes. She

thought for a moment. " You know what, let me go. Let me go, Seto. I'll do more harm than good."

Kaiba closed his fist and put it on his desk. " No. Téa, you can't let him run our lives. "

Téa looked up into his eyes. " Please, think for the company's sake."

" It'll be difficult to find another job. Going through that process again will be a real pain. "

" Kaiba, please don't make this harder than it already is."

Téa began to walk out the door with tears streaming down her cheeks. Just as she was a second

from leaving, something held her back. She turned to see what was holding her. Kaiba was in the

middle of the doorway holding her hand.



" Téa, I... I.... I love you!" Kaiba at once felt whole.

Téa froze and quickly remembered all the events that she shared with him. She remembered the

acquired position when she first applied for the job, deleting his virus, going with him to the 2002

Annual Ball and when she first admitted that she liked him. Each passed by in a second, but,

now she a new one to add to the list. She realized that she felt the exact same way.

" Seto, I love you too!"





Kaiba held her close, as if she was a very fine piece of jewelry, gentle to the touch. He put his

hand to her face, brushed away her brown hair from her teary face, and kissed her passionately.



Téa held him close also. She didn't want to leave but it was for the best. She stopped crying.

They both looked into each other's eyes and there they stood for ten minutes, each drowned in

each others' eyes.



Suddenly, Téa snapped out of his trance.

" Seto, please"

Kaiba finally let go of her hand, but didn't stop looking at her.

Téa slowly went out the door.

" Bye Seto"

" Bye Téa"

Kaiba was left with his own thoughts. It's only temporary Kaiba, It's only temporary.

Téa went to a near by coffee shop. Hmm..... Maybe this can improve my day?

" Hello-my-name-is-Bakura-how-may-I-help-you????"

" Huh, Bakura?"

" Téa?????"

" This is your part-time job that you keep telling everyone about? I thought it was in a office,

remember?" Téa joked.

Bakura grinned sheepishly. " Uh well, you see...."

" It's okay, I won't tell anyone."

" Thanks. I couldn't live with myself if people at school found out. They'd probably call me Burger

Bakura. "

" Burger Bakura. That does have a nice ring to it." Téa grinned.

" I don't get something though, don't you have to be eighteen to get this job?"

" Shh. You.. uh..see, the manager thinks I'm already an adult."

" It's okay, I guess I'll keep that secret too."

" Thanks. You're a good a friend Téa."

" Thanks. I think the job isn't worth it. I sorta got fired for that reason."

" I'll take that into mind, but you wanna talk at a table." Bakura showed the way.



Bakura and Téa sat and talked about nothing of real significance. However, there was an

unknown catch. Both Téa and Bakura were new, so, they didn't know that each table had a

name. Some tables were called " Birthday Parties" or " Family Dinner". The one they were sitting

at was called "Couples Only".

Just as they finished talking, Kaiba walked into the store. Hmmmm........ What? Téa

and Bakura are sitting together in THAT SECTION! I better find what all of this about.



( UH-OH BAKURA'S IN TROUBLE UH-OH. Just Kidding. What will be Kaiba's response??? What new threats will Peter make?? Will Peter ever tell the public?? What will happen to poor Bakura???? Sooo many questions!!!!!! There is only one way to find out, that is to keep reading!!!!!!!! Keep R&R!!!!!!! C U Soon & Luv Ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! )
