Jessica woke up Saturday in a great mood that morning. She threw on her mini skirt and tank top and ran down the stairs. She was happy that there was no school today, she could finally relax and spend the day doing whatever she liked. She ran into the dinning room and grabbed an apple and munched on it taking a seat on the counter.
"You look cute" Mokuba complimented.
"Thanks kiddo" she said. Jessica couldn't help but be in a good mood, even though she tried her best not to show it too much. "Anyways I'm going for a walk you guys, I hate being here 24/7 with you guys watching me like that" Jessica said jumping off the counter.
"You can't, what if he's out there? We can't risk it" Yami said.
"I'll be fine, just for and hour or so" she said making a sad face. Yami looked back to the others not knowing what to do.
"Go, but if you are not back in one hour..." Ishizu warned.
"Thanks" Jessica screamed with joy and she was gone.
Finally free from them she thought to herself. She walked down the sunny streets of Domino City happier then she had been in days. Who is this Marik guy? And why did her need her? Couldn't he just take the bracelet? But Ishizu had said this was a more powerful item and different from the others she thought.
"Okay now listen you idiot, I want to get her to trust me, so it will be easier to use her" he said watching the girl wander down the streets.
"Yes master, what would you like me to do?" the man asked.
"This is the plan you will go to her and chase her into a alley, then you will tell her your Marik, and I don't know hit her a few times till I get there, and then I'll save her! Got it?" Marik asked.
"Yes master" he said.
"If you mess this up you shall truly regret it." Marik threatened.
"I-I won't master," he said.
"Well what the hell are you waiting for?" Marik hissed and with that the man left.
Jessica walked down the streets and for the past few minutes she had noticed a hooded figure following her. She turned left, then right, left, but still he followed. Jessica was now getting a bit scared. She started to walk quicker, so did the figure. What am I going to do she kept asking herself. Jessica broke out into a run; it was the only thing she could do really. The hooded figure caught up to her and pushed her into the closest alley.
"Stay away from me" she yelled.
"Or what? What could you possibly do to me, Marik?" he grinned throwing her to the floor.
"Your-your Marik?" she cried. Marik walked up to Jessica and kicked her hard in the stomach. "Oww" she whispered. He then picked her up by the shoulder and was going to punch her in the face. Jessica closed her eyes, tears falling from them waiting for the punch. It didn't come. She slowly opened one eye and there stood a guy about her age with platinum hair and lavender eyes and a guy lying on the floor not to far from him.
"Are you okay?" he asked giving his hand to pull her up. Jessica took it gratefully.
"Thanks..." she said.
"No problem" he said smiling at her.
"You wanna go for a walk?" he asked.
"Sure...why not" she said and they made their way from out the alley.
"I didn't catch your name" he said.
"That's because I never gave it," she said.
"Can I have it then?" he asked.
"Yeah...Jessica and you?" she asked.
"Kyle" he lied. " So what did that guy want with you?" he asked. Jessica explained the story Ishizu had told her before.
Why am I telling him all this? She asked herself. Maybe it's because you can trust him or so you think you can trust him a voice said from the back of her head. Oh she thought.
"Wow...how do you deal with this all" Kyle asked.
"Don't know" was all she said.
"Hungry?" he asked.
"Little" she answered.
"Come" he said pulling on her arm. She followed him to a restaurant and they entered. "Two coke's and four hotdog's" he said to the cashier.
"That will be 4.25" the woman said sweetly. He handed her the money and they got their food and sat.
"Thanks" she smiled at him. There was something about this guy, but she couldn't put her foot on it. " Welcome" he said munching on his food. They finished up slowly when Jessica realized something. "Kyle...what time is it?" she asked nervously.
"Ummm 2;15" he said.
"WHAT? No! I was suppose to be home by 11, they are going to kill me" she screamed and ran out of the restaurant. Kyle followed soon after.
"Let me walk you" he said. He walked her down to the Kaiba mansion an stopped in front of the gate.
"Thanks for everything" she said.
"Like I said, no problem" he said. Jessica opened the gate when she felt someone grab her wrist. "Meet me at the park tomorrow at noon" he said and kissed her on the cheek. Jessica stared as he walked off. He's so weird she thought making her way into the mansion.
"Where have you been?" she heard a angry voice say.
"Oh...around" she answered. She didn't feel like going through what happened again.
"Don't lie to me" Ishizu said trying to keep calm.
"It's none of your damn business okay? I'm late because I forgot about time!" she said and walked up to her room. She fell onto her bed starring at the ceiling. So many weird things had happened since she had moved here. Maybe we should of never move she thought.
She lay in bed until someone entered it. Looking up her eyes met with Seto Kaiba's cold glare. She's so beautiful he thought. He made he's way to Jessica's bed and sat down.
"Who was that guy I saw you with in front of the gate?" he asked with a hint of jealousy. He hadn't really seen the person's face but he had seen the kiss.
"Oh...that' was Kyle" she said. " Oh! Okay then...." he trailed off. Is he jealous? She thought. She put her hand on his. "He's just a friend" she smiled.
Go while you still can! Run! He thought, but still he didn't move. When he did move though he didn't move away he moved closer to her until his lips captured her's. Jessica melted at his touch. His kisses were so passionate and gentle all she knew was she wanted more. She leaned back in hopes to deepen their kiss, which it did making Jessica's body go weaker. She felt his tongue brush against her lips and without hesitation opened her mouth. Kaiba's tongue explored the inside of her mouth with such lust. He wanted to taste every part of her mouth, feel it. Jessica's arms made there away around Kaiba's neck and fiddled with the back of his hair as the kiss continued.
Jessica started to go dizzy from loss of oxygen, but she didn't want to leave his lips, his touch, she wanted him so badly. Kaiba broke the kiss breathing hard. They looked into each other's eyes with so much love and passion. Kaiba broke the gaze not to long after.
"Jessica...I..." he trailed off.
"You what?" she asked with curiosity.
"I have to go.... tuck in Mokuba," he said getting up from her bed and closing the door behind him. That was close, but do I actually.... love her?' he asked himself. D'uh! Said a voice from the back of his head. No! I can't! She would never love me anyway and besides I've got a company to run I don't have time for a silly girl he thought. He walked into his bedroom and fell into bed, lost in his thought's...again. Okay Kaiba, leave the girl alone, we don't have time for her, she's just some girl...with beautiful eyes and the softest touch and the...NO NO NO NO NO! He cursed himself for such thoughts. He put himself into a comfortable position and drifted off to sleep.
Men are so stupid she thought. One minute their sweet, the next their evil again she laughed. She had to admit though, she was falling for him. She loved everything about him except when he was being mean and cruel with his jokes, but he had stopped right? And who was this Kyle? She really appreciated what he had done for her, I mean what would of happened if he hadn't showed up in time? Jessica shuddered at the thought. Then she too drifted off to her sleep.
Jessica woke up late that morning and took a shower and dressed herself in a light blue top with dark blue jeans. She headed downstairs. She peeked through the kitchen to make sure everyone was there, and then snuck out. She wouldn't even bother asking them, they would just say no since she had come home later then she had promised. She slowly snuck pass the guards and walked towards the park. She looked around and spotted Kyle sitting on a bench.
"Hey there" she said sitting beside him.
"Hey" he said.
"So what did you want to do today?" she asked.
"Hang out I guess" he said. He looks so distracted she thought.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
"Yeah...I'm fine" he said standing up. "Let's go to the arcade," he said.
"Sure" she replied. They walked down the streets until they reached a building that said ' DOMINO ARCADE CENTER' in bright lights. They walked in. "What do you want to play?" she asked.
"Ummm wanna duel?" he asked grinning.
"I don't duel...sorry" she said.
"That's okay...how about a game of air hockey then" he asked.
"Sure" she answered. They made their way to the table and Jessica put in the exact amount of change needed. "Ready to lose?" she asked him.
"Never" he smirked evilly and the game started.
"Wanna make the game more interesting" he asked with the same grin on his face.
"What kind of bet are you thinking of?" she asked.
"If I win then you have to do one thing for me that I ask...not matter what it is and if you win same thing" he said. I could use this to my advantage later on he thought.
"Deal" Jessica yelled from the other end. They played until the score was 6-6.
"Whoever makes the next score will win okay?" she said getting tired from the game.
"Fine by me" he said hitting the puck towards her area but missed and she hit it back to him with all her might and it fell in his area.
"YEAH! I win! Ha, you have to do whatever I ask" she crossed her arms in triumph. He walked to her end of the table.
"And what might that be?" he asked. " I don't know, I guess you'll have to wait and see" she laughed.
They left the arcade and she decided she would go back home; hopefully they wouldn't be too angry. She hugged him and they went their separate ways. She quietly entered the house not wanting to be seen. She walked up the log staircase and entered her room closing the doors behind her.
"Made it," she told herself.
"Not quite" she heard a voice say. She looked around the room and there by the window, sitting in a chair was Yami. Oh great she thought. "So where were you this time?" he asked not moving.
"At the arcade" she said plainly. " With who-"
"None of your business! Can you please leave my room?" she growled pointing to the door.
Yami got up from his seat and stopped in front of her. "It is my business when you leave without telling anyone, getting people worried" he said coldly and left the room. Jessica stood there starring at the door for a while then went to write in her diary. She heard a knock at the door and told them to come in.
"Miss, dinner is served" the butler said.
"Thanks" she said and followed him out the door, down to the dinning room table.
Jessica was pleased when no one asked her where she had been today; frankly it was none of their business. She sat down and ate her hamburger and fries silently. No one at the table was really talking, it felt so weird. Near the end of supper though, Jessica had this weird feeling something was going to happen soon. Seeing as there was school tomorrow, they had all decided to go to bed a little early, which Jessica didn't, mind at all.
"Can you believe it Rishid? The day has finally come, I will finally beat that stupid pharaoh and become the rightful ruler," he laughed evilly.
"Yes Marik" was all he said.
"Now make sure she is brought to me, when captured," he said.
"I will" he said and left the room.
Marik could hardly contain himself. He had been waiting for his revenge for a very long time now, and nothing could stop him, nothing at all. He fell asleep quickly with the thoughts of tomorrow happily rested in his mind.
Jessica had woken up earlier then she would have this morning. She showered and dressed herself into her uniform before going downstairs. She took an apple with her and headed out the door. It was a windy morning, gray clouds signaling rain for the day. She sighed to herself and continued her walk to school.
She had been walking for a while when she noticed a hooded figure at the other end of the sidewalk. Not again she thought. She looked to her right and left and there stood several more. Shit she thought. But before she had a chance to run in the opposite direction she was hit hard on the head. Jessica fell to her knees and watched as the hooded figures circled her. Jessica looked up and at the man that had hit her. The pain was unbearable, but she didn't have to feel it for much longer as she blacked out....
