Dreamy situations

Chapter 4:

They had been driving for only five minutes and Cassie was already talking a mile a minute, Kaiba didn't even understand most of it. He tried to look interested, but he was on the verge of collapse.

"Uh, Cassie?"

"Yes?"

"Where do you want to go for dinner?"

"How about... The Fishy Palace!"

"Isn't that for little kids?"

"YESSY-WESSY! BUT IT HAS FISH!"

Kaiba's face turned green, 'I am allergic to fish.' He swallowed hard, "Okay..."

"Great! You know what else is cool about that place?"

"What?"

"They give out free party hats!"

"..." Seto felt the urge to jump out of the car and run home, "Nice..."

In a few minutes they arrived at the Fishy Palace. Kaiba had a hard time finding a parking spot, "Why are all these people here?"

"Tonight is two fish night."

"What is that?"

"It's when you order one fish and you get twenty more for half price!"

His eyes popped wide open, "If that's the case, then why do they call it 'two' fish night?"

"Well, what's twenty divided by ten?"

"Two."

"There ya go!"

"..."

They got out and went inside, when they got to their table Kaiba felt like him and Cassie were the only ones in there with all their adult teeth.

Everyone else looked like they were five, and even worse than that... Kaiba was forced to wear a party hat that said 'Happy Boy' on it in big letters.

'If anyone I know sees me in here, my life will be over.'

"Are ya having fun?!"

"Fun... isn't the word for it."

"Well, good."

They had already ordered their food. Cassie got twenty orders of the trout and five orders of clams, with a full case of wine. Kaiba ordered a glass of water. With all the room that her food took up that's all he had room for.

Watching her eat was like watching one of those starved dogs eat at the pound. She was getting food everywhere. Kaiba was now regretting not bringing an umbrella or at least a poncho. Cassie was talking to him in between chewing, not that he could understand a word she said. He nodded politely from time to time and pretended she was interesting.

She had just gulfed down the entire case of wine in less the two minutes. Kaiba watched her in amazement, 'Where does it all go?' She was as skinny as a rail.

In a minute she looked at him, "Kaiba?"

"Uh... yeah?"

"WHAT'S WRONG?!"

He jumped back in his chair, she was speaking so quietly before. "Uh... nothing. Why?"

"You seem a little quiet."

"No, that's just the way I am."

"I like you Kaiba..."

"Thanks." He thought about what Mokuba had said, "I mean... I like you too..."

She smiled and broke out in song, "DON'T MAKE CLOSE ONE MORE DOOR! I DON'T WANT TO HURT ANYMORE! STAY IN MY ARMS, IF YOU DARE! MUST I IMAGINE YOU THERE?! DON'T WALK AWAY FROM MEEEEE! I HAVE NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING... IF I DON'T HAVE YOU..." then she collapsed on the floor.

Everyone in the restaurant looked at them. Kaiba was red in the face, "Check, please..."

The waiter gave him the bill, (which, by the way was very high) he gave him his credit card and picked Cassie off the floor.

He put her in the passengers seat and drove towards her house. 'Thank god this thing is over.'

When they got to her house Seto carried her to the door and got the key out of her pocket. He walked in and looked around, 'Gee, I hope her parents aren't around.'

He set her on the couch and started to walk back out the door but Cassie woke up, "Kaiba?"

"Hmm?" he turned around.

"What happened?"

"You passed out on the floor, it was probably from that whole bottle of wine."

"Did I throw up?"

"No."

"Good. Bye Kaiba... call me later... YAWN!"

"Uh, bye." He walked out the door and back to his car, 'The day I call her is the day hell freezes over.'

He drove home silently and walked through the door, he had only taken off his coat when Mokuba jumped out at him. "Heya Seto!"

"Jeez! Oh... hey Mokuba."

"What are you doing here?"

"I live here, remember?"

"I mean I wasn't expecting you back till tomorrow."

"What?!"

"You know," Mokuba winked at him.

"No I don't know, and I don't want to know either." He started to walk upstairs to his room, Mokuba followed.

"So, tell me how it went."

"A nightmare."

"Really? Were you rude?"

"No!" Kaiba sat at his desk, "First we had to go to this little kid restaurant, then I had to wear a party hat, then she ate three times her weight in fish, and then she past out after singing a Whitney Houston song!"

"..." Mokuba starred at him, "HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"It isn't funny. At the end, I had to carry her in her house and she told me to call her before she passed out again."

"Are you going to call?"

"NO!"

"Aw, come on..."

"No... she was awful. I've learned my lesson. Don't judge a book by its cover... Just because someone is nice looking doesn't mean you'll have a nice time."

"And just because someone isn't the most appealing, doesn't mean you'll have a bad time. Right?"

"I didn't say that."

"..."

"Why did you say that?"

"..."

"Mokuba! What did you do!?"

"Don't get mad, okay?"

"Oh no."

"But I called another girl and told her you'd go out with her tomorrow."

"Oh jeez."

"She's nice... but not very good looking."

"Oh my."

"She's a little hefty... and butt ugly."

"OH GOD!"

"Seto! Calm down! It's just dinner and..."

"And?"

"And I said you would love to give her a full body massage..."

"NOOOOOOO!"

"Seto, please!"

Kaiba shook his head, "I can't do it Mokuba... I'm fragile. My eyes aren't used to such terrible things..."

"Oh stop it, Seto!"

"..."

"Now, I already promised her you'd do it. Will you?"

"...I... Well, okay... but I'm not touching her nasty parts!"

"That's fine."
