Someone Like You

Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Everyone sat in silence at the hotel suite not quite knowing what to say, finally Mai spoke up, "So... Joey how long have you known about this?"

Joey shot his head up at the question and said, "Um, I met her the second day I got here. I saw her in the park with Shiro and Chijin and then we got talking..."

"Probably lied all throughout..." mumbled Malik.

SMACK

"Ahh Isis! What you do that FOR?" cried Malik, holding his now red cheek.

"Because Malik! I know that in someway you think what you did was right, and maybe you were, but still that does not mean you can bad mouth Téa. You've not even heard her side."

"Yeah well, I don't care. I know I am right."

"What make you think that?" asked Shadi.

"Listen you lot, you didn't have to listen Ryou keep going on about how the love of his life disappeared all the time! I mean he blamed himself for her leaving! The guy nearly went into depression and he, he ahh fuck this..." and with that, walked out of the room and into his, slamming the door.

"Well..." said Tristan, after some time, "Who knew Malik had a heart, hey?"

"Yeah...." said Seto, feeling a bit guilty.

"But tell me more guys, so their names are Shiro and Chijin right?" asked Serenity.

"Yup," replied her brother.

"And they are what nearly 4?" asked Isis.

"Yup."

"Aww they are so sweet! Chijin has such a nice smile and a chibi Ryou Bakura!" said Mai.

"HOW CUTE!" exclaimed all the girls starry eyed, while the boys just sweat dropped.

Téa breathed deeply, as she ran her fingers through Ryou's hair, savouring the feeling. Ryou looked up from his position and stared into her eyes. Slowly, he lowered his glaze and began to place butterfly kisses along her jaw, Téa gasped as a surge of suppressed feeling rose up again.

"Ryou," she mumbled, pulling back a bit as he began to kiss her on the lips. "We can't... you have to stop..."

"I know," he whispered back, "But it's been so long, I can't."

"But we have to...." She cried, feeling a horde load of emotion rising and a heat running through her.

Sighing, Ryou stopped and just closed his eyes, hugging her close to him.

"I am so sorry Ryou, but I can't... I."

"It's okay Téa, I shouldn't have done that. I-I just couldn't help myself."

Before Téa could, reply a small voice was heard, "Mommy are you going to tuck us in?"

Pushing herself out of Ryou's grasp, she answered with, "Yes Chijin, I am coming." And walked to the twin's room, turning back, she looked at Ryou and asked, "Are you ready?"

"Huh? Ready for what?"

"Silly! To meet your children."

Ryou's eyes brightened as he grabbed her hand and entered the room.

Joey, unable to sleep sat on the balcony rail looking at the town below him; hearing a noise behind him, he turned and saw Mai.

"Hey."

"Hey." She replied back, "Can't sleep?"

"Nah, too much has happened."

"Yeah I mean who have thought?"

"Yeah tis hard ta imagine, what's happened ta us all in the last five years."

"Yeah it is! I mean who would have thought that the Yami's would have left, Isis and Shadi would have got married, Téa would have run away and had kids... and Seto and Serenity..."

This earned a grunt from the blonde boy.

Mai looked at him and cautiously asked, "Does it still bother you?"

Sighing, he turned and looked at her, "Well ya, I mean no brother want his sister to you know, especially when tis Kaiba, but I guess I am happy dat she happy, but if he hurts her..."

"I don't think he will Joey, he loves her, and I can see it."

"Humph."

Giggling, Mai kissed him on the cheek and walked back, "Goodnight Joseph."

"Err night Mai," said a bewildered Joey.

Téa braced her self as she pulled Ryou into the room, the twins looked at her surprised, "Mommy whose dat?" asked Chijin, while Shiro just turned over and stared.

"Shiro, Chijin come here babies sit with me." They did and so and Téa continued with, "This is Ryou.... Now I know you wanted to know why Shiro looks a bit like him, and well it's because…. Well… he's your daddy." The last part was whispered, as her voice fell into the night.

The room was tense and silent, suddenly Chijin perked up and walked to Ryou, and asked, "You my dada?" while, looking down at her feet, not quite her confident self.

Ryou smiled down, went to knee level, and said, "Yes I am."

"Really? My daddy?" she cried happily, full of joy and surprise. She flung herself into his arms and asked, "I have a daddy?"

As Ryou hugged his little girl, Téa could not help but let a few silent tears fall, turning to Shiro, she looked into his eyes and saw hurt and anger, yet also relief.

"Shiro hunny," she began, "Are you not going to say hello to your daddy?"

Shiro looked past his mother at his sister and his newfound father, he saw them both look at him expectantly, looking again at his mother and seeing the pleading look in her eyes, he walked to his father as Chijin sat on her mother lap.

"Hi Shiro," Ryou began slowly, "I am Ryou, your..."

Ryou was cut of, as his boy hugged him and said, "Hi daddy."

Standing, Téa and Chijin walked up to father and son and sat on the floor with them. They all hugged each other, as the twins silently thanked that they now had a mother and a father....
