Kiss Me Fool
By: Fire_Katt
***Disclaimer: Don't own YGO, I asked Santa to give me it for Christmas but no such luck....oh well there's always next year!
Oh and I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't do this but since it IS my story and all....(hearing the sound of crickets chirping) well anyways regarding the Ishtars (Isis, Malik, and Marik) they are all siblings (same goes for Yugi/Yami and Ryou/Bakura) and (uh oh) I'm making Marik the oldest, Isis the second oldest and Malik the youngest. (Kind of ironic since Marik is technically only like what 5 or 6? But just bare with me here...^_^) Anyways, on with the story!
No wait I lied! Sorry again but this entire chapter will be told from the other's point of view in other words, Tea and Seto don't play a big part in this chapter aside from being referred to, the next chapter will be back to them and I'll probably post both chapters at the same time. Ok now on with the story.....
Chapter 4
Yami had been trying to ignore the fact that Tea hadn't so much as glanced at him all night. Sure he'd broken up with her, but he'd only done it because he thought she would be better off without him. He hadn't taken in to consideration how much it would hurt him to let her go. Now she wouldn't even acknowledge him. Isis was good company of course and they'd been friends for years. What he hadn't realized until tonight was the fact that she seemed to like him as more than a friend. If he hadn't proceeded to get very drunk once he saw her walk in arm in arm with Ryou and Bakura laughing loudly. He'd realized that Tea had apparently moved on already and his first stop was at the bar. 'So much for her loving me.' he thought bitterly to himself. He hardly noticed putting his arm around Isis as he leaned down to tell her that they should probably be going. She murmured a protest which he didn't really pay attention to. What definitely got his attention was when Isis leaned over and kissed him. His eyes widened slightly as they broke apart.
"I...I'm sorry Yami. I probably shouldn't have done that." Isis looked down at her hands in her lap. Neither Isis or Yami noticed the two furious Ishtar brothers making their way over.
"No, don't apologize. I.." Yami didn't have the chance to finish his sentence as he was pulled out of his seat when Marik grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and proceeded to punch him in the stomach.
"Marik stop it! What the hell do you think you're doing!" Isis grabbed his arm as he was about to punch Yami again who hadn't had a chance to recover.
Marik glanced over at Isis coldly. "I told you to stay the hell away from him."
Just then Bakura and Ryou rushed over and pulled the two apart. Ryou helped Yami to his seat although he was now trying to turn around to hit Marik back.
"Yami just sit down. You're making a scene." Ryou hissed at him quietly.
Yami yanked his arm out of Ryou's hand and snapped at him. "Don't touch me. While you're at it you can mind you're own business. As for you Bakura..." Yami glared coldly at the other white haired boy before spinning on his heel and heading for the door, calling over his shoulder. "This isn't over Marik."
Bakura just shook his head. He couldn't care less whether or not Yami was pissed off at him. He deserved whatever he got for how much he hurt Tea. Ryou on the other hand was slightly confused. He thought that Yami had broken up with Tea, so why was he acting so jealous? Malik had taken Yami's recently vacated seat and turned to grin at Ryou and Bakura.
"Ahh never a dull night with those two siblings. So why is that loser hanging all over my sister anyways? I thought he and Tea were an item."
"Actually he dumped her a week ago. She's here with us tonight actually." Ryou answered him while glancing around to see if Tea was still on the dance floor. Sure enough she still was. What surprised him was the fact that Kaiba was still dancing with her.
"Who'd have thought that?" Not realizing he spoke his thoughts out loud until he heard Malik speak up cheekily.
"Think we should join them?"
Bakura, who'd remembered that he had been dancing with Tea before they'd been interrupted by Malik and Marik's appearance had already started in the direction of the dance floor. Ryou glanced over to Isis and Marik who were off to the side arguing in low but furious voices.
"Sounds like a plan."
"But first, show me to the bar!" Malik smirked as Ryou rolled his eyes at that, but led him over to the bar. Ryou got himself and Tea another drink and then he and Malik started back to the dance floor.
***TBC
I know it was a short chapter but I am putting the next one up at the same time and I'll try to make that one longer so hopefully you guys can forgive me! Once again I want to say thanks so much for the awesome reviews!
Just to answer a few questions...
Kitty-chan: Well I'd like there to be but I'm trying to figure out how to work one in without it being cheesy
^_^ (AnimeGirlLove@comcast.net): Well hopefully this was fast enough for you, I've been updating pretty steadily however right now I'm not back at school yet and I'm on holidays from work so I have a lot more time on my hands than I normally would so starting next week I'll try to post at least 1 if not 2 chapters a week and they will be longer but it'll be based on how much spare time I have to write so I'm apologizing ahead of time for making you wait ^_^
shadow_angel6: This is my first YGO fic and the first story I've really dedicated myself to. I have another story (not a YGO) posted but I won't be finishing that one until I'm done this one. But thanks for the awesome compliment! Oh and also yes Yami is jealous I hope I explained why in this last chapter.
dragonking: Wow you've been reviewing from the start! I'm really glad you're still liking the story! More Tea and Seto next chapter I promise!
chichi5: Actually I had read your story before and I really enjoyed it! It's bookmarked on my computer. Thanks for the ahem...enthusiastic review too! ^_^
Teafan123: Yay another author whose stories I love reviewed! lol I'm such a geek. Anyways I'm really glad you like my fic so far! I know I love yours!
Ex-Angel Dice Bakura: I hope I got your name right! It's definitely going to be a Tea/Seto in spite of my Tea/Bakura inclinations lol.
not a member yet =( (cmp7474@yahoo.com): Thanks for the review and telling me about the author!
Elena (anele145@cox.net): Sorry but I don't want to make Tea out to be the jealous one since Yami is technically the one at fault (so he got his ass kicked! lol) But I may decide to have Isis try to start something....*thinking* but we'll see.
Catgirl_Kuri: Like I said, definitely a Tea/Seto thing ^_^ The next story I write however will be a Tea/Bakura.
Candace: Wow, you were my first reviewer AND you still like my story! That's a bit of an ego boost ^_^ Glad you're enjoying it and like I said earlier, after this chapter they'll get longer.
Amatuer Duelist: Well I'm thinking of something to that effect, keep in mind that Tea said she'd talk to Seto after the party....
Lynderia: Well I hope this helped explain your confusion a little. But hey let's be honest do we ever know what's going through a guys head or do they ever know what's going through ours? lol. I don't think it happens often!
Josh Nelson: Thanks! Glad you like it.
EK: Sorry but yeah it is a Tea/Seto but I'll write a Tea/Bakura next I promise!
Silver Mist4: Hope this worked for you ^_^
DB: Hope you still like it!
Ferocity: Your review was a great help to me I hope you like it still. Oh and I hope I've made Tea as un-annoying(don't think that's a word but whatever) as possible. The thing that bothers me about the whole Tea-bashing idea(or any character bashing for that matter) is the fact that you're an author, if you don't like something about a character there's no harm in fixing their faults right? I mean I swear I'm not going to have Tea do a single "friendship speech" because they are a little annoying but hey she herself is an awesome character! Okay I think I'm done ranting now ^_^*
Sakura Li Samuri: I don't know if you'll still be reading this but I'm thrilled that you liked it in spite of not liking Tea.
pupgurl (puplovr@comcast.net): I'm really happy that you liked it and I hope this worked for you!
I'm sorry if I missed anyone who reviewed after I posted! You guys are really helping me a lot and I'm ecstatic to know that you guys are enjoying reading this as much as I'm enjoying writhing it!
