Hey guys thanks for all the great reviews again!! I do however want to apologize for taking so long to update this chapter, but I have a good excuse. You see this weekend I went to an anime convention!! I had meant to post up this chapter the day before I left because I knew I would be gone Friday-Sunday, but I got so busy getting ready for the convention and finishing my costume that I forgot to!

Anyways the convention I went to was great! It was Akon 14 in Dallas! This was my first ever Akon and I had so much more fun at this convention then any of the others I have been to b-4!! I can't wait till next year! I got so many great pics (I even got some pics of Yugi and Kaiba), spent loads of money (I'm so broke), and even got to see some new animes that haven't even come out in the US yet (more reasons to spend my money)!

Also Duel Jewel and Camino were there and they ROCK!!! I got to go to their concert and even got them to sign the Cds I bought and got tons of pics (the lead singers in both groups were so hot!!). Anyways I would go on about my super experience but it would take up too much time and I know you guys are more interested the fic. Anyways sorry again and I hope you enjoy this fic!

Disclaimer: If 1 + 1 = 2 , then Yugioh + Its Characters = not me because I don't own them and I probably never will. Okay now that I got those problems done can anyone help figure out how long it will take two trains heading northeast and southeast, one traveling from Cookietown 200km and the other one from LittleRock 500km at a speed of 30m/s, and they both left the station 2 hours apart from each other and it was raining in Pennville while Bush was giving a speech over budget increases, and purple elephants were dancing on the tracks, so..........

Love Kaleidoscope

Chp.7 Prelude to a Kiss

She wasn't sure how long it had been as she laid there in the darkness. Even though her eyes were wide open she was unable to see a thing. The night surrounded her as the dark clouds in the sky above blocked even the moonlight from her line of vision. However although Anzu was encircled by the shadows of this black night she was unable to fall asleep. Whether her eyes were open or not didn't seem to matter. The only thing she could think about were the events that had occurred the night before. Thoughts that were even more murky then the overwhelming darkness that had now consumed her room.

"Anzu are you sure your alright?" whispered a voice from outside her door. Anzu had come home late the night before, and when her mom asked her why, the only response she received was a troubled look and a "I'm sorry it won't happen again." Anzu's mother was worried that her daughter might have gotten sick, and the fact that Anzu had decided to go to bed so early that night was not helping her nerves.

As a beam of light crept it's away into Anzu's room, Anzu quickly shielded her sensitive eyes. She had been sitting there staring into the darkness so long, that her retinas were now unable to focus on even such a weak amount of light.

Anzu's mom peeked her head into Anzu's room in order to see why her usually cheerful daughter wasn't okay. "Don't worry mom, I'll be a fine.......I'm just a little tired from last night." Anzu's mother had no idea how much truth rang within those words. Maybe Anzu's body wasn't tired, but her mind definitely could do with some rest.

When Anzu's mom had finally left the room, Anzu turned over in her bed and stared in the direction of the ceiling. Although she couldn't see it, she knew it was there. She held her hand up in the air in front of her face and tried to make out it's figure in the middle of the darkness. Finally she brought her fingers to her face, and rested them to her lips.

"I, I can't believe it.........I can't believe Seto Kaiba actually........actually kissed me!?!" Hearing the words escape from her mouth, Anzu had trouble believing that she was actually speaking them. If not for the sound of her own voice Anzu would have sworn she heard the words come from someone, anyone else. As Anzu traced the outline of her lips, a flood of memories soon took over her thoughts.

***************************************************************

As Kaiba pushed Anzu against the wall, a wave of panic flashed into her mind. Kaiba's dark figure towered over Anzu as she struggled to suppress her fears. His strong hands firmly pressed against Anzu's arms, daring her to try and resist him. "Oh so now your going to hit me? Do you think that'll make you feel like a stronger person?" shouted Anzu angrily. It was kind of ironic that Anzu would say such words in a situation like this. Sure everything she was telling him was true, but as Kaiba held Anzu firmly against the wall it became pretty obvious to her just how physically powerful Kaiba was. If he wanted to, he could probably rip her apart with his bare hands.

Anzu suddenly begin to tremble at the thought, and if it had not been for the shaking of Kaiba's own frustrated hands, he might have realized just how frightened Anzu was. However despite her own fears Anzu continued on. She wouldn't stop until she had let Kaiba know just what a weak person he truly was on the inside. She wanted him to hurt just like the way he hurt everyone around him, even if he tried to kill her.

"Shut up, just shut up!! How dare you talk to me like that, you have no idea what kind of pain I've been through!! You could never understand!!" cried Kaiba as the sound of his voice begin to echo into Anzu's ears. To Anzu's own astonishment, the look in Kaiba's eyes had gone from bitter rage to an intense and heart wrenching sadness. He was almost on the verge of tears! Had it been any other person Anzu would have stopped her torture, hugged Kaiba right there, and tried to reassure him, but someone like him didn't deserve such kindness. Kindness was not the way to get through to person like Seto Kaiba.

Anzu let out a cold laugh as a sudden thought came to mind. "It's no wonder you get so wrapped up in all those computer games, your not much different from your silly robots and machines are you? Cold and emotionless. The only difference is that your computers will never know fear like you do-"

Before Anzu could finish her final sentence, she was suddenly cut off as two piercing blue streaks shot into her face. Kaiba's once cold and emotionless eyes had stolen the very words out of Anzu's mouth. The intensity and pure emotion reached into the depths of Anzu's soul, seizing her mouth and cutting off any means of speech.

Suddenly Kaiba's grip on Anzu loosened up, but he still held onto her tight enough so that she still couldn't escape from his heart stopping eyes. As their eyes met, Anzu found herself unable to read Kaiba any longer, but she knew that the look in his eyes was not those of anger but of something else. Panic suddenly overtook Anzu as she tore her eyes away from Kaiba's fiery gaze. 'Oh God, he's really going to kill me, isn't he!'

Anzu's balled her hands up into a tight fist and held them to her sides as she braced herself for whatever Kaiba had in store for her. He closed in on her, his face only millimeters from hers. Tears of fear begin to escape from Anzu's eyes as the pounding of her heart begin to beat rapidly.

Anzu's eyes popped open in utter disbelief as a realization of what was going on finally hit her. Was Seto Kaiba actually kissing her!?!

Anzu's fist loosened apart as Anzu felt her entire body begin to grow weak. As their lips met, an immense heat shot through Anzu's veins as the speed of her heart beats tripled. Anzu suddenly felt her mind drift away from her as her body begin to melt. Although Kaiba's kiss was fierce and ferocious at first touch, the pure emotions behind it were of no comparison.

Anzu's eyes begin to drift shut as she finally succumbed to Kaiba's will. She felt as though she couldn't get enough, she wanted more, despite the fact that it was Kaiba who was kissing her. Anzu begin to lean backwards in attempt to let Kaiba deepen their kiss. The pressure of his lips increased as Anzu felt his tongue brush against her lips. Anzu hesitantly opened her mouth. She knew she shouldn't be doing what she was doing, but she didn't care, she wanted more. She wanted to feel more of Kaiba's passion. She wanted as much as she could handle.

As Kaiba explored his way into her mouth, Anzu let out a faint moan from the back of her throat. She felt as though her heart would burst from the overwhelming flood of emotions that were now surrounding her.

Suddenly Anzu felt herself go dizzy as she grabbed onto the sleeves of Kaiba's jacket, out of fear that her legs might give. As Kiaba deepened his kiss Anzu clasped onto him tighter afraid that if she let go she would fall backwards and their kiss would break. No, nothing would deprive Anzu from this overwhelming bliss.

Realizing Anzu's faint movements Kaiba drew her in closer in order to let her body relax and rely on his strength to hold herself up. He wasn't sure what had taken over him, but he wanted this moment to last even more than Anzu did.

As he savored the taste of Anzu, the ferocity of Kaiba's movements begin to waver as Kaiba kiss transformed from one of angry spontaneity to one of gentle and pure passion. As Seto struggled to breath through his nose he suddenly felt himself go lightheaded due to lack of oxygen. As much as it pained him to admit it, he knew neither he or Anzu could take much more of this overpowering pleasure without passing out.

Against his better judgment, Kaiba finally released his captor from the spell his lips had invoked as their eyes slowly opened in unison.

::SLAP::

Anzu and Kaiba took in rasping breaths, as they stared at each other intensely. Kaiba's face begin to burn as the effects of Anzu's slap finally wore in. Neither one dared to break their gazes out of fear of what would happen to them if they let their guards down. As Kaiba's gasp begin to subdue he finally opened his mouth to speak "Anzu I-"

"Big Brother!! Anzu!! Are you two down there?" cried Mokuba as a bright light flashed in their direction.

"M-Mokuba!?!" stammered Anzu she suddenly forgot her position and dropped her gaurd first.

"I'm so glad you two are safe." cried Mokuba as he gave his big brother a hug. "When I noticed you guys weren't behind me, I looked everywhere for you guys, but this place was just too big. Finally I asked security for help and once we got some flashlights I noticed this big hole in the ground............." As Mokuba continued on with his explanation, Anzu felt her mind drift away as a realization of what had happen just a few moments ago finally hit her. Kaiba, however continued on as if nothing had happened. How did he keep himself so damn well composed. It must of been due to his years of practice. All those years he spent fooling people into believing he was strong person, but Anzu had seen through him.

"Don't worry kiddo, were fine, I'm just sorry your day was ruined." smiled Kaiba warmly as he patted Mokuba's head. Kaiba always seemed to take his mask off for Mokuba, until-

"No that's not true, I really did have a great time with you and Anzu." Upon hearing her name Kaiba made eye contact with Anzu for the first time since their encounter. The once fiery and passionate glow had been replaced once again with his familiar cold gaze.

"We're really sorry Kaiba sir, we had no idea that there was a trap door there, we-"

"Don't let it happen again, had it been anyone else you would have had a law suite on your hands." snapped Kaiba as he interrupted the pale looking supervisor. "Come on Mokuba, it's getting really late, let's go home." Mokuba shook his head in agreement and he tried to hide his faint yawn.

They drove in silence. A hundred things seemed to be running through Anzu's mind however every time she opened her mouth her voice seemed to escape her. Kaiba didn't seem to be making things much easier either. He just sat there in a cold silence as if nothing at all had happened. Although they only sat a few inches apart with Mokuba who was now sleeping peacefully with his head resting on Anzu's lap separating the two, Anzu felt as though she were a hundred miles away from Kaiba. 'Why is he always so damn irreproachable!' The way Kaiba was acting was really pissing Anzu off. Anzu's frustration begin to grow and when she finally got up the nerve to tell Kaiba just how damn annoying he was being they had finally reached her house.

Mokuba let out a heavy yawn as he struggled to open his tired eyes. "Thank you so much for spending the day with us. I had a lot of fun." Anzu smiled and kissed Mokuba on the forehead, and got up to leave. Mokuba tried to get up to walk her to her door, however he was much to fatigued to do so. Suddenly Kaiba got up from his seat, as if he read Mokuba's mind and decided to walk Anzu to her door in his place. Anzu almost felt her heart leap from her chest as Kaiba opened her door for her and slowly followed her to her house. Once again they walked in silence, and when they finally reached her door Anzu turned to say goodnight, but Kaiba was already walking back to his limo. Anzu watched him for longer than she needed to, and finally walked inside her house. As she shut the door behind her she leaned up against the wood and let out a heavy sigh. It was almost as though she had been holding her breath ever since their.....kiss.......

******************************************************

Now here she sat in the darkness of her room, reliving that moment over and over in her mind. She wasn't sure what to do. 'How could I let him kiss me? I mean he did have me pinned up against the wall, but if I really wanted to I know I could have made him let go of me, so why?' Anzu wasn't sure what to think at this moment. She couldn't figure out at all what was going on in Kaiba's mind. How could he just kiss her like that and then pretend like nothing had happened? Sure that was probably the smartest thing to do in a situation like this, but Anzu didn't care about being logical. Had that moment been any normal kiss she would have just let it go, but no, this kiss was different. There was too much feeling and passion for it to be purely a lust driven kiss. Anzu had to get her answers, and she knew she would never be able to truly rest until she did. As Anzu continued to torture herself with these thoughts, she was once again interrupted by her mother.

"Anzu dear, there's a young man here to see you, do you want me to tell him your not feeling well?" whispered her mother. Someone to see her. It couldn't be Yugi, otherwise her mom would have just said so. Maybe it was Jounouchi or Honda, whatever the case Anzu quickly sat up in her bed as she decided it would be best to see what he wanted. Anything to get her mind off of this nightmare.

"No that's okay, tell him I'll be down in just a minute." smiled Anzu weakly as she turned on her lamp. She had to give her eyes a little time to focus first so that when her friends saw her they wouldn't think anything was wrong.

As Anzu walked down the stairs toward the living room she smiled to herself as she heard her mother laughing. It must have be Jounouchi, only that goof could make her mom laugh like that. "Oh your such a charming young man," chuckled her mother. "I'm sorry Anzu's taking so long, I don't think she's feeling like herself today."

When Anzu finally reached the living room she was stopped dead in her tracks. "Oh so you finally made it down sweetie, it took you long enough, but that's okay, I was just having a little chat with your charming little friend Mister Seto, right?" Kaiba shook his head and smiled at Anzu's mother. "Oh well now that Anzu is here how about I fix you guys some tea," and without a moments waste, Anzu's mother got up and went into the kitchen.

Anzu stared at Kaiba unable to move her feet. He stared back at her, and even though his cold gaze had seemed to warm up a bit, there was still no emotion behind his eyes. Anzu suddenly felt as though the world had disappeared around them as they stared at each other in a mental lock. Finally Anzu unconsciously walked to where Kaiba was sitting and sat down in the chair across from him. Kaiba still made no attempt to say anything as his eyes followed her every movements. Anzu struggled to read his eyes, but she had never seen him look at her like this way before. He had her totally thrown off guard.

"Here you are," interrupted Anzu's mother again. "Oh by the way Anzu, your father just called me and said he was having a problem at the office and he needed my help. I'll be stepping out for just a few hours, is that okay?"

'NO!!!' shouted Anzu in the back of her head. Was fate somehow working against her? She didn't want to be left alone in her house with Kaiba, especially with him looking at her the way that he was.

As Anzu walked her mother outside , her mother suddenly stopped just outside the door. "Anzu you sly girl, I thought you would never bring home a sweetie like this one. Seeing as how your always hanging out with those silly boys, I thought you would never bring home a real boyfriend. Oh and he's such a charming and handsome young man too."

"Wha-what," chocked Anzu as she couldn't believe her mothers words. Kaiba tried to hold back his blush as he could hear Anzu's mothers words plain and clear through the window.

"Whenever you get a chance, I want you to invite him over to dinner, you hear." Before Anzu could protest any further her mother gave her a mischievous wink and walked out the door. Anzu let out a weak sigh as she waved her mother off.

Finally after prolonging her farewell as long as possible she slowly turned around to face her fate. Her feet begin to drag as she walked in the direction of the living room. Upon hearing her faint shuffles Kaiba watched Anzu cautiously. "Okay Kaiba what do you want, why are you here."

Upon hearing her words, Kaiba's eyes drifted toward the ground as if he had suddenly lost his nerve. After a brief pause he lifted his head to meet her eyes once again and finally replied "I came here tonight because we need to talk."
