Notice: *looks around for "little kids" * Damn the disclaimer! But you
know, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh and so on and so forth. I didn't get a single
review from the first chapter, and I know it was short but was it that bad?
I didn't even get a flame, let alone a praise. Well, please R&R! This
chapter will be longer, I promise. Oh, also "blah" means speech, 'blah'
means thoughts, and # blah# means P.O.V., (blah) means author notes. Just
thought you wanted to know.
Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 2
************************************************************************
When Yugi, Joey, Téa, and Tristan arrived at the restaurant, Duke Devlin and Mai were already there. With the party being in a fancy restaurant, everyone was dressed up. Tristan automatically started a nice little conversation with a random waitress that was serving at the table, Duke and Yugi were chatting about Duel Monsters and Dungeon Dice Monsters, with Joey and Mai whispering gossip in each other's ear. Serenity had to work till 30 minutes before the party, so she decided to come by herself, giving everyone plenty of time to chat for 15 minutes. They had already ordered the food and were just waiting for the birthday girl to arrive.
Meanwhile.
Serenity thanked her friend for driving her as she stepped out of the car. She was changed from her work uniform into a short sky blue cocktail dress that her mother had bought as her birthday present. As she advanced to the door of the restaurant, a black limo caught her eye. It was a very well cared for care, without a single water stain or a tiny scratch. The driver of the limo stepped out, dressed in a black tux, white shirt, and navy blue tie.
'Very formal.' Thought Serenity.
The driver opened the door of the car, letting whoever was inside step out. A tall young man dressed in silver and blue stepped out of the car. His face was ice cold as if someone just robbed him of his spirit. He was carrying a metal briefcase at his side and beckoned the driver to come forth and murmured some directions to him. His eyes were cast on the ground till the driver drove away with the car. He turned to walk towards the restaurant as his eyes caught Serenity. (Now let me guess, who is this guy? This is a very forward guess. Or so I think.) A light of interest hit his eyes as he looked at the very beautiful young woman who was staring back at him.
"Can I help you?" he asked.
"Oh, no." said the girl quickly as she turned and ran swiftly up to the entrance of the restaurant.
"Interesting." said Kaiba to himself. ************************************************************************
" So there you are! We were 'bout to get worried about you." Said Joey as his sister appeared at their room. They had asked for a room by themselves just for Serenity's birthday and even though it cost them a fortune to get it, they were glad. There were many business people that came here for meetings and they didn't feel like being yelled at for being too loud was a good way to celebrate someone's birthday.
"Sorry to keep you guys waiting. I had to go home to get changed so it took some time." Said Serenity.
"No problem. We're not hungry." Said Joey cheerfully. But the rumble in his stomach betrayed him. Serenity started to giggle and tell them to start eating as she paid a trip to the restroom to wash her hands.
(Remember the name of this restaurant? It's really Chinese and it means emperor's meal. Trust me, I'm Chinese in this time period.) The halls of Yu Shan were richly decorated. There were copies of famous drawings of famous painters, vases and other decorations that were probably not a small sum of money, and last but not least, the walls were covered with expensive wallpaper. The way to the restrooms was no easy trip. The halls seemed to twist and turn in the eyes of Serenity and she had to ask 4 times before she got anywhere close to the restrooms.
'They should be just around the next corner.' she thought.
Deep in her own thought's, she didn't realize that she was approaching the turning corner; nor did she hear the soft footsteps of another human turning around the corner.
"Ouch!" she muttered as she sat on the ground, rubbing her hurt back. She had not seen or heard another human approaching, nor did the person she bumped into. They had bumped into each other and came crashing to the ground. Luckily there were no people near to see them in this mess, for it would have been rather hilarious.
Picking himself of the ground, Seto found the one he bumped into was the girl he had "meet" outside of the entrance.
"Are you O.K. miss?" he asked as he stood up from the ground. The girl was still sitting on the ground, rubbing her aching back.
"Oh, I'm fine. You, sir?" she said as she began to stand up. "Sorry I bumped into you."
"No problem." He muttered silently as he began to walk away. He had managed to get a closer view of the girl from the fall. She was very pretty. She had tan red hair with a pair of very pretty hazel eyes (I'll stick with hazel until I know other wise), not to mention a great body. He shook his head to awaken him from these thoughts. He had never seen another girl this pretty. Part of him wished to turn around and ask her out, the other half refused to go and make a fool out of him if he did not succeed. He never felt this way about another girl. Was it. no, he refused to think that he would ever fall in love. Girls were constantly after him for his money. Something in him made him turn around to look at her one more time. When he did, he realized that this girl was trying to tell him something.
"I'm Serenity. Nice to meet you." She said cheerfully with a wide smile as she stuck out her hand.
"Kaiba. Nice to meet you."
' Seto Kaiba! How interesting. Wait till Joey hears about this!' thought Serenity.
"Um, I was wondering, where do you go work, or school?" asked Kaiba
"I go to Domino High School." Answered Serenity.
"I go there." Said Kaiba quickly.
"Cool. Well, I'll see you in school then." Said Serenity as she started to walk down the confusing hall.
"I was wondering, since you go to school at the same place as I do, maybe I could give you a drive back home." Said Kaiba slightly nervous. He had done many things, but none as nerve wrecking as this was.
"Sure. I'd be glad to go with you. Monday after school in the parking lot then." Said Serenity as she turned around to answer him, then turning back and started walking.
"See you there then."

Not that bad huh? I promised a longer chapter. I know this isn't exactly the best way to ask someone out but I couldn't think of anything else. : ) If you want to suggest something, they're more than welcome. Please R&R! If you find anything that's not right, just tell me. Thanks for reading this!
Hope you enjoy!
