Author's Note: I'm so sorry I haven't updated in so long but with work and
then school I've been so busy I haven't been able to write anything for
months, I promise though that I will try to update more often I just have
to see how my workload is every week, please forgive me on this and on how
short this chapter is, I just thought it would be good to end it where I
did. Don't worry the next chapter will be longer with more action. By the
way in case you didn't know Cecilia was Pegasus's wife who died, in the
series he's trying to bring her back to life by taking souls with his
millennium eye I thought since this takes place after his defeat I would
put a new spin on an old idea what do you think? Please review and again
I'm sorry for the wait.
Chapter 5
As the figure made his way toward the bed he would stop every once in awhile to make sure he didn't disturb the woman sleeping soundly under the covers. He had just gotten right up to her side of the bed when she sighed. He stood stock still waiting to see if she would awaken. She sighed once more and shifted slightly moving her covers and then she was still. The figure breathed a sigh of relief and then when he was sure she was sound asleep once more he crouched and in one big leap jumped onto the bed. Adriana shrieked as the weight of a body landed on top of her. At once she jumped from bed grabbing the first thing she could get her hands on, her hair dryer. "All right come out with your hands up or I'll shoot!" She yelled holding the dryer like a gun toward the bulge in her bed. When she saw no movement she made her way towards it. She slowly reached her hand out and grabbed hold of the blankets. Slowly she peeled back them back to reveal: "Mokuba!" The young boy laughed, as he looked at his nanny her hair in disarray holding a hair dryer. "I got you good Anna! I got you good!" He squealed as he jumped up and down on her bed. Adriana tried to stay mad at the boy for almost scaring her to death but she couldn't not when he was smiling at her like he was. Smiling in spite of herself she quickly walked up to him and reaching out grabbed his arms and began to tickle his armpits. Once she had him breathless from her tickling she let him go. "Mokuba time to go back to bed and no more scaring me ok?" Mokuba looked at her his eyes sleepy and yawning loudly. "Anna can I sleep with you big brother will be mad if he finds out I snuck in here and played a trick on you, besides I don't want to wake him up, he doesn't get to sleep well that often, so can I Anna?" Anna couldn't help but agree with Mokuba. She did not want to bother Seto with his brother's prank, it was over with and Mokuba had been scolded by her, besides no one had been hurt. Adriana knew she was just making excuses on why she didn't want to wake Seto when she knew the truth behind her decision. She didn't want to bother him. What Mokuba had said about him not sleeping well often was true. Since that time she had woken him from a nightmare in the library Seto had not been sleeping well. She had heard him go down the stairs to the kitchen many nights wondering what images from his past were keeping him awake. If he was sleeping soundly for once she did not want to disturb that sleep for something so miner that she should be able to handle. She could tell Seto about it in the morning. Her decision made she smiled down at the boy at her side reaching out and ruffling his hair. "It's okay Mokuba I won't tell your brother, tonight why don't you sleep the rest of the night here with me so you don't wake Seto." "Okay!" He said excited that he would be spending the rest of the night with his big sis, which is how he had been thinking of Anna since her arrival at the Kaiba mansion two months earlier. With a yawn he crawled into Anna's big bed and soon was fast asleep. Sighing with tiredness from interrupted sleep and smiling warmly down at the boy in her bed she herself crawled into the bed. She felt her heart constrict as the ten-year old snuggled next her. That he trusted her so much to do that warmed her heart and she felt a wave of love and affection hit her and she knew that if she ever had a little brother she'd want him to be just like Mokuba. Sighing she settled into the bed and soon drifted off to sleep. The screen showed the bedroom for another moment focusing intently on the people in the bed most importantly the girl in the bed. Pegasus smiled as he looked at her as she slept. "So beautiful, I knew someday you'd come back to me, that you couldn't be gone forever, my first plan didn't work the way I wanted it to but now you're here, but your using a different name why?, were you trying to hide from me, and why with that insolent pup Kaiba?" He seemed to scowl at the mention of Seto Kaiba and how he had seemed so possessive of the girl that evening. She wasn't his! She'd never been his and she never would be. His scowl softened slightly as he looked at a close up of her face. She belonged to him she had ten years ago and she would now and no little rich boy with all his silly little dueling toys would keep her from him. He sighed reaching out his fingertips caressing her cheek through the monitor. "Soon, soon just be patient my love and you'll be with me again, I love you Cecilia."
