"Serenity!"
Serenity looked up at Duke Devlin, who was running towards her.
"Duke?"
"He wants to see you now."
Serenity nodded. She walked slowly to the room and went inside. She saw him, looking tired and weak.
"Serenity." he gasped, his eyes lighting up as he saw her.
"Seto? Are you okay?" She dropped to the floor next to him. "I was so worried Seto! I thought you were going to... to..."
"Why were you worried Serenity? You hated me."
"I didn't hate you, Seto." she said, looking into his deep blue eyes. "I was... just a little unsure of myself." She looked at her brother, who immediately turned away guiltily.
"Yeah... I have had those kind of feelings too." said the CEO.
"Joey?" whispered Yugi to his friend.
"Yeah Yug?"
"Let's go."
"Where Yug?" The blonde looked at Yugi cluelessly.
"They need time alone, Joey!"
"For what?" asked the blonde blankly.
"Let's go Joey." said Ryou, taking Joey's right hand while Duke took his left hand. They dragged him out of the room, and closed the door, leaving Seto and Serenity by themselves.
"Wait!" said Joey suddenly. "I can't leave them alone!"
"Why?!"
"She's my baby sister! I have to protect her!"
"Protect her from what?" said a voice, "From love?"
Joey looked at Mai, who stood before him frowning.
"Mai..."
"Joey... you are trying to take over... make up for what your parents never did for your sister. You are just a teenager Joey... just like her. Except you allow yourself to love and have feelings for me, when you don't do the same for her and Kaiba."
"Mai..." said the blonde, reddening.
"Joey... she's not leaving you or anything..."
~ ~ ~
"Serenity... I felt so... lost... when you pushed me away that day."
Serenity looked at him guiltily. "I'm sorry."
"No!" He sat up slowly, never breaking their eye contact. He leaned towards her, his dark eyes gleaming.
She leaned back a little, nervously anticipating an angry outburst or threat. But when his lips touched hers, her mind went blank, and she couldn't do anything to push him away.
But she didn't want to.
Seto held the brown-haired girl close to him, his kisses reflecting what he truly felt for her. Suddenly, she was under him, and they were on the carpet, each feeling as if they would never pull apart.
"Serenity." he murmured, moving his right hand to her warm cheek.
"Seto!" she gasped beneath him.
"I love you." he said, kissing her with all of the passion he could possibly give. He loved the feeling of her small hands running through his dark brown hair. He wanted to take her right then and there, but knowing that her elder brother was standing outside, decided not to.
He felt wet tears and pulled away from her. Silent tears rolled down Serenity's rosy cheeks.
"Why are you crying? Did I do something wrong again?"
Serenity moved back into his arms and wiped her tears on his shirt.
"No Seto." she whispered. "Everything's just so right."
Their emotions were put on hold when they heard a knock on the door.
Seto straightened up his collar and dusted off his clothes. Serenity also attempted to tidy herself up. She walked to the door and opened it.
"What's goin' on in here?" asked the impatient blonde.
Serenity smiled at her paranoid brother. "Joey... we are just fine. I was just talking to Seto and helping him out."
Seto walked up behind Serenity and put his arms around her. Joey gasped, but held himself back after feeling Mai's cold yet reassuring hand on his shoulder.
"Serenity... we need to go home now." said Joey.
"Now? But Joey..."
"Don' worry sis... I ain't gonna keep you away from Kaiba anymore. I trust you guys... well you at least..."
Serenity, Yugi, Mai, Tea, Duke, and Ryou walked out of the mansion one by one. Joey was leaving when Seto tapped him on the shoulder. Joey groaned and turned around, expecting another insult.
"Thanks." muttered the CEO with embarrassment.
Joey looked at him confusedly.
"No really... Wheeler, thanks for giving me a chance... with your sister."
Joey looked at the boy with awe and amusement. He had never imagined this would happen.
Joey smiled a little. "Yeah... whatever Kaiba... you're welcome. Just take good care of her."
"I will."
Joey walked outside and ran to join the others.
"Hey Joey?" said a familiar voice behind him.
"Yeah Kaiba?"
"Get the hell off of my lawn!"
Joey smiled and ran onto the sidewalk.
Seto watched in the distance, shaking his head amusedly.
