Finding Out About Us – Chapter Four
Mai glanced at her watch. It read ten-thirty. "What's taking that pizza so long. I'm hungry."
Tea glanced up from the computer screen. "You sound just like Joey. Maybe you two really are made for each other." She grinned, then added "Just like in the fanfic's."
"You mean like you and Marik? Now that one was a good story!" Mai snickered.
"Oh Please. I wouldn't touch that creep with a ten foot pole!" Tea huffed. "Besides, I really think the best one so far was the one where you and Joey..."
"Ok, ok. You win!" Mai threw her hands up in defeat. "What are you reading now?" She asked changing the topic.
"Well, it's this cute little story about a guy named Seto and a certain someone's sister." Tea said mysteriously.
"Oooo...I bet that one would really make Joey go ballistic!" Mai giggled.
*Meanwhile – At the Bottom of the Stairs*
Joey and Tristan were pacing at the bottom of the stairs while Yugi sat pondering on what would be the best way to find out what Tea and Mai were up to.
"What if we did order the pizza, and used that to lure the girls out of the room, then one of us could sneak in and find out what they were doing?" Suggested Joey.
"It might work." Tristan stated. "What do you think Yugi?"
"I'm game for anything if it will get me my room back." Yugi said hopefully.
"Anyone remember what they wanted on it again?" Quizzed Joey.
Yugi shrugged. "I don't, but I'll ask Yami."
*And Back in Yugi's Room*
Tea stood up and stretched. "As good as this is, I'm beat and I still have to walk home tonight."
Mai nodded in agreement. "Yeah, it is getting kind of late. How about we continue on with this tomorrow?"
Tea smiled. "Oh I wouldn't miss it for the world!"
"Maybe we should let the guys in on it?" Mai asked.
Tea looked horrified at the idea. "You got to be kidding! Do you think Yugi would let us use his computer again if he knew we were reading about him doing...well...you know."
Mai giggled. "Why Tea, I never knew that you had an evil side."
Tea gave Mai a sinister smile. "I never claimed I was perfect."
Mai slung her backpack over her shoulder. "So it's settled then, we won't tell the guys. At least not until after I get to finish reading that last story. I hope the author will update soon."
*In the kitchen*
Yugi hung up the phone. "Well, the pizza's ordered, so now what."
"Now we wait. Then when the time is right...we pounce!" Said Joey jumping out of his chair.
"A little dramatic don't you think?" Laughed Tristan. "But seriously, who's going to go sneak into the room?"
"I could do it." Yugi suggested. "I'll just say that I have to grab something from it I mean it is my room, how suspicious could that look?"
"All right! We're got a plan, high-five everyone!" Joey shouted excitedly.
"Ah, guys?" Yugi interrupted suddenly. "I think I forgot about something." The color was slowly draining from his face.
"Hey, what's the matter buddy? You look a little pale, are you feeling ok?" Asked Tristan.
"Well...um..." Yugi started. "Do you remember when we got back from duelist kingdom and just us three went out to celebrate?"
Joey laughed. "Oh yeah, that was a good night. Man, we had a blast. Why?"
"Do you remember the pictures we took?" Yugi continued.
"You mean the ones where we'd all die of complete embarrassment if anyone saw?" Tristan confirmed, looking at Yugi suspiciously.
"Am I ever glad we got rid of those! Imagine if Tea and Mai got a hold of them!" Joey shook his head. "Then we'd really be in for it."
Yugi's face paled even more. "Well, the funny thing is that..." Yugi gulped before continuing on. "I didn't exactly get rid of them." Yugi had both Joey's and Tristan's full attention now. "You see, I was going to burn them, but I just never got around to it so I hid them under my mattress." Yugi finished.
As if reading each other's minds; Yugi, Joey, and Tristan all bolted from the kitchen and up the stairs.
"If they found those pictures, I'll kill you Yugi!" Joey puffed while racing up the stairs.
"Not if you die of embarrassment first!" Yugi replied back.
At the top of the stairs Joey stopped first, almost running over the girls as they came out of Yugi's room. Mai raised an eyebrow, "In a hurry boys?" She asked, her lips quirked into a smile.
"No, just need something from my room." Yugi stated. "Are you done?"
Tea nodded. "Yep. Thanks, but could we use your computer again tomorrow morning?"
Yugi shrugged, trying to look as if nothing was wrong. "Sure. See you tomorrow then."
"Bye!" The girls called in unison as they walked down the stairs.
Seconds after Tea and Mai left Yugi retrieved a white envelope from in between the mattresses of his bed. Holding it up he smiled. "It's still here!"
Joey breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank god. Just think what would happen if those pictures got to school."
"Ok then, so are we going to burn these now or what?" Asked Tristan.
Joey nodded. "Oh yeah, there going up in flames! Hey Yugi, have any matches?
"There should be some on my desk." Yugi answered.
"So if the girls didn't find the pictures then what was all the laughing about?" Joey wondered out loud.
While searching for the matches, Tristan's hand bumped the computer's mouse and the screen saver turned off. "What's this? Looks like the girls have been online!"
"And how do you know that Mr. Smartie Pants?" Joey said sarcastically.
Tristan grinned. "Because they left without disconnecting. And I the great Detective Taylor have uncovered today's greatest Mystery." Tristan finished triumphantly.
"Oh brother." Joey shook his head. "So how's that going to tell us what was so funny?"
"I know!" Yugi volunteered. "You can tell by searching the history!"
"History?" Joey questioned. "Ok now I'm confused."
"It's easy Joey." Yugi explained. "You see, with the click of one button, the History page will display every website that my computer connected to within the last week."
Joey, Tristan and Yugi all crowded around the small desk.
Once outside Tea and Mai let go of their laughter. "I thought I was going to die in there Mai. How could you keep such a straight face?"
"I was ok, as long as I didn't make eye contact. But don't you think the guys were acting kind of strange when we left?" Mai asked. "You don't suppose that they knew what we were doing, do you?
Tea froze in her tracks. "Ah Mai, I think we have a problem." Tea's voice was filled with worry.
"What's wrong?" Mai's voice hushed into a whisper, her eyes glancing around their surroundings searching for danger.
"I left the computer online." Tea admitted. "It's just when we heard the boys coming up the stairs I kinda spooked."
Mai relaxed and shrugged her shoulders. "It's no biggie. You see, before I left I deleted the history." Mai finished with a grin.
*Author's Note: And that was Chapter 4. Next chapter I'm going to let the boys in on it (and maybe Kaiba). I tried to make this chapter longer than the others because someone requested it, so whoever you are, hope you enjoyed it!
