Seto looked at his kitten sleeping in the hospital bed. The doctor explained she'd lost a lot of blood and glass had to be removed from her stomach, she had 4 cracked ribs but nothing was broken. The detectives had been to question Mokuba and left looking for Rika's father and Duke, but if they couldn't prove Duke hit her then nothing can happen to him.

"Mr. Kaiba" a nurse interrupted his trail of thought

"Yes?"

"We've got the results from the other tests"

Seto remembered that they may have been damage to Rika's head and they did a scan "And?"

"There wasn't as much damage as we thought"

"But?"

"She may have a small case of amnesia, it's unsure though until she wakes up"

Seto nodded and walked into the room, sitting on the chair. "I'll be here when you wake up" Seto said to himself

Rika opened her eyes, she looked at the bright light on the ceiling and rolled over, her back to Seto pulling the cover over hear head with a moan. Seto yawned opening his eyes "Kitten?"

"5 more minutes..." she mumbled

"Kitten"

Rika rolled onto her back "Hey Seto"

"Good you remember me"

"Why wouldn't i?"

"It doesn't matter kitten" he stroked her hair

"When can we go home?"

"Soon...do you remember what happened?"

"No everything's a blur...is Mokuba ok?"

Seto nodded and kissed his kitten on her forehead.

"Get your lips off her Kaiba!" A familiar blonde shouted

"Joey, what are you doing here?" Rika blinked

"We heard about what happened, they wouldn't let us through so"

"You made your way through" Rika laughed

"Tell me something Rika"

"Yea Joey?"

"What's HE doing kissing you on the forehead!?"

"Well Joey..."

Yugi ran up the hallway in time to see Joey leap back against the wall screaming in surprise.

"What's going on?"

Joey pointed at Seto "Kaiba and-and Rika their a-a"

"Couple" Seto finished Joey's sentence

"Oh?" Yugi grinned at Rika

Rika nodded "How did you get passed, Yugi?"

"Tea pretended to faint" he laughed

"She should become an actress" Rika smiled with a chuckle

Seto frowned a little "I think you should go now Rika needs her rest" he spoke through his teeth

Yugi sweat dropped and dragged Joey down the hall, he was still in shock.

"Seto please don't be nasty to my friends..."

"But"

"Seto" she said sternly. This time she was the dominate one.

"I'll try...no promises" Seto sighed

Rika smiled "Thank you"

"Now rest kitten"

Seto cuddle Rika while she slept in the limo. He always seemed to find Rika sleeping on her breaks, she was just one of those people that could sleep wherever and whenever. The limo pulled up to the house and Mokuba ran out to greet the pair. "She ok?"

"Yea I'm fine" Rika reassured with a yawn and a stretch

"Careful kitten"

"Why? Ow" She held her side "That's why.."

"Come kitten you need rest" Seto put his arm around her and lead her to her room.

Rika sat on her bed and looked at Seto.

"Something you want kitten?"

"Well...err.." She blushed and made little circles in the sheets with her finger

"What is it?"

"Can you...I mean..."

"Kitten?"

"I don't feel safe on my own...can you...stay here with me?"

Seto smiled "Of course"

Rika smiled and curled up under the sheets, Seto laid next to her and cuddled her gently, watching her fall asleep.

For the rest of the week Rika stayed in bed and Seto gave into her every need, although most of the time she was asleep. He stayed by her side and never left it even to go to work, but Saturday soon rolled around and Rika had to be ready.
