Chapter 3 Tristen?

Hey everyone, I'm back! I try to update every day because I'm utterly obsessed with writing and Yugi-Oh. Right now, I'm listening to the music from Kingdom Hearts (which I also do not own) and a really upbeat song in Japanese is playing, but none of you probably care about that, and I don't blame you, so I'll just get on with the thanks. Thank you to everyone who reviewed, I love hearing what you say about my stories, especially when you're being as nice as you are! Seriously, you're all awesome! Well, I'm going to stop wasting your time with my mindless jabbering and let you go on and read the story. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: Well, I guess everyone already knows I don't own Yugi-Oh, but just in case there are any stupid money-loving lawyers out there, I'll just say it again so they won't sue me for every penny that I own: I DO NOT own Yugi-Oh!!!! There, happy? (By the way, I was just joking about the lawyers thing, hehe…)

~Serenity~

"How's Kaiba?" Tristen and Joey asked when they got back to the room. Yugi shrugged and sat in the chair.

"The same as always."

"Acting like a real creep, I'll bet." Tristen muttered. " What? I'm right, aren't I?" he said when they all looked at him.

"Well, he's been through a lot. Did you know his driver was killed?" Yugi said, somewhat defensively.

"Ah, Yugi, you need to stop being such a nice guy and stop standing up for that jerk." Joey said.

"Well, actually, he was in a pretty bad condition." Mai said, looking at Joey. "Nothing critical, mind you, but he still looked pretty beat up."

"Humph! Well, I still say he probably got what was coming to him." Joey said. "How'd he treat you?"

"He didn't even seem to care that we were there to see him." Tea said, heatedly. "I agree with Joey for once, he definitely deserved this. And I don't think he looked too bad. Mostly cuts and bruises really. No broken bones or anything like that."

"So, this is the Seto Kaiba that you wrote about in all of your letters, Joey?" Serenity asked, listening intently.

"Yeah, it's him. Geeze! What luck, huh? How long is he supposed to be in for, Yugi?"

"I don't know, I didn't think to ask. But by the looks of him, I'd say a little while."

"Ugh, can we please get off the subject? We went and made sure that he's okay, so let's please talk about something else." Tea said disgustedly. "He gets enough attention as it is." So, their conversation veered in the direction towards Serenity.

"How are you feeling? Do you need us to fluff you pillow? Get you something to eat? Anything?" Tristen asked, taking her hand.

"Um…no thanks…" She said, smiling. Tea and Mai glanced at each other, aware of something that Serenity was completely oblivious to.

"Hey, why don't we go get something to eat from the cafeteria?" Mai said, standing up.

"That sounds like a good idea!" Tea agreed, smiling.

"Yeah, I'm feeling kind of hungry myself," Tristen said.

"Oh! No, you have to stay with Serenity, you know, just incase she needs anything." Mai said quickly, casting a quick glance at tea, who nodded. "Oh yeah, Tristen. We'll bring you something back, I promise. Can we get you anything, Serenity?"

"No, not really. I don't think I could stomach very much. What about you, Joey?"

"Uh, I'm a little hungry. If they have it, get me a cheeseburger, maybe a lasagna if they're serving it today (yes, they do serve lasagna at a hospital cafeteria, but I've never eaten it), an apple, a soda, and for dessert, a big cookie, some chocolate covered raisins, ooh! cake if they have it, and…well, that should be it."

"Er…okay, we'll just bring you a burger. Are you sure you don't want anything, Serenity?"

"Yes, I'm fine, really."

"Hey, if you're going to bring the food up, could ya just go ahead and order something for me too?" Joey asked. "I'll have-"

"You're coming with us!" Tea and Mai said, grabbing him by the arm before they both glared at Yugi, who backed away from them.

"Hey, I'm coming! I can take a hint!" He said, backing out the door.

"What's up with them?" Tristen asked after they had left, not even realizing that they new how he felt about Serenity. He was sitting on the bed beside her, looking at the floor.

"I don't know." Serenity shrugged her shoulders and laid back against her pillow.

………………………………....................Outside of the door………………………………........

Mai put her hand over Joey's mouth and put her ear against the door next to Tea's. Yugi sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Guy's this isn't right, we shouldn't be doing this!" he practically whined.

"SHHH!!!" both the girls turned and gave him a glare. "Do you want them to hear you?!" Mai whispered harshly.

"Why is it any of your business what goes on between them?"

"Yugi, don't you see it? The way Tristen looks at her? You can't be that dense!"

"Yeah!" Tea added "And wouldn't they make the cutest the cutest pair?"

"I don't know! I'm a guy! Guys don't think of stuff like that!" Yugi exclaimed, and Tea covered his mouth with her hand to keep him silent.

"Hush!" She said. "There has to be a way to get them together!"

Never fear, Serenity & Seto lovers, the next chapter will get a lot more accomplished, and I promise to have it up by tomorrow. I just had to put this little bit in for later. Also, it'll feature more Kaiba. So, bear with me, the action will start up soon!!!
