Chapter 6: 2:00 AM Chat
A loud rumbling sound emerged from outside, and Seto awoke in a cold sweat.
Sitting up abruptly, Seto clutched his head, fore it was in pain.
Lightning flashed, and rain poured down from the sky. Seto looked at his digital clock. The angry red digits read 1:45 AM.
His heart pounding, Seto replayed the nightmare in his head. "That voice. It sounded so familiar. And what did it mean to warn me about? Death?" Seto continued to question himself.
Thunder crashed just as a soft tap was laid upon his door.
"Kaiba, are you awake?" came the muffled voice.
"Yeah, just a sec, Téa." Seto quickly threw a T-shirt on over his bare chest.
Seto opened the door, letting Téa step in.
"Is anything wrong?" he asked softly.
"No, not at all. The thunder woke me up," Téa said, grinning sheepishly.
"Yeah, me too. Well, sort of anyway," replied Seto.
Téa looked at him curiously. "What's that supposed to mean?"
Seto sighed. "I had a nightmare."
"Are you alright?" Téa asked, gently touching his arm.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Nothing I can't handle," said Seto.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Téa pressed.
Seto hesitated. He wasn't one to spill his feelings to another. And when he did, he always seemed to regret it.
"Well?" Téa asked a bit sleepily.
"Okay," said Seto, still feeling a bit unsure of himself.
They both went and sat down on Seto's bed. He started to explain his nightmare to Téa. 'Maybe telling someone how you feel isn't so bad after all,' Seto thought.
For the second time that day, Téa listened to him. He seemed so tense sometimes.
"And the voice! It sounded like.like," continued Seto.
"Like who?" asked Téa.
"Like Yami!" Seto burst out, when the thought hit him. "The voice sounded exactly like Yami."
Téa nodded. "That definitely sounds like something Yami would say."
Seto looked at Téa and sighed. He was very tired, for once, and his head was still pounding.
Téa looked back at him. "Do you have a headache?"
Seto shook his head yes, and groaned slightly.
"I have some Ibuprofen in my bag. I'll go get it," said Téa as she hurried off to her room.
Seto just sat there and waited, feeling feverish.
Téa returned with a tiny pill, and a glass of water. "Here," she said, handing it to him.
"Thanks," he mumbled, popping the pill into his mouth, and washing it down with the water. He set the glass down on the night table.
Téa pressed her hand against his forehead, and was immediately met with over-whelming warmth.
"I think that you're coming down with something," Téa told him.
"Just my luck," he muttered.
"Oh, shush," she said, kissing him softly.
He kissed her back, feeling his eyelids droop.
Téa smiled at Seto, then felt something hot, sticky and sweaty. She realized that it was his T-shirt.
"I think you'd be a lot more comfortable without a shirt," Téa told Seto, scrunching up her nose.
"I think you're right," he said, mindlessly removing it. He then fell back on his bed, his head hitting the pillow.
"I've never been so tired in my life," Seto said.
"I can tell," Téa said, sitting beside him, still. She reached over and ruffled his already aroused hair.
Seto smiled up at her. "I hate that," he said, a light smirk on his face.
"Get used to it," Téa retorted.
Closing her eyes, Téa leaned back against the headboard of Seto's bed.
"What are you doing?" Seto asked, still having to look up at her.
"Going to sleep," replied Téa slyly. "The thunder is scaring me." She opened her eyes, and gave Seto the puppy face.
"But, in my bed?" he said, laughing.
"Yeah, where else am I going to go?" said Téa.
"How about your own bed?" said Seto, half-teasing.
"Actually, I think I will. More room for me," said Téa, getting up.
Seto chuckled softly as he closed his eyes.
"Goodnight, Seto. Sweet dreams, hopefully," Téa said as she kissed his cheek, then walked out of his room, and towards her own.
Seto sprawled out, the nightmare still haunting his mind. "Agh! Just let go of it!" he told himself.
After tossing and turning for about ten minutes, Seto fell into a restless, dreamless sleep.
