That's Just Life
Disclaimer: Me don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! Okie?
SETO KAIBA LOOKED at his watch and sighed to himself. It was 6:30 PM, meaning that he had to meet Anzu in exactly half an hour. Kaiba was supposed to meet Anzu at the school gym, but since there was nothing planned out yet, Kaiba had suggested that they meet somewhere a bit more cozy to plan and discuss the dance. Anzu agreed.
After resting his eyes for a few minutes, Kaiba got up from his chair and exited his study, making his way to his bedroom. It was getting a little dark, and also a little chilly too, so Kaiba decided that he should perhaps get a change of clothes. Eventually he found the perfect outfit: a white long sleeved shirt made by Chanel, and black Louis Vuitton pants. To look even more stylish, Kaiba added a white trenchcoat, courtesy of DKNY.
Once Kaiba was finished dressing up, he headed downstairs and started for the exit door, grabbing his Louis Vuitton briefcase (which contained binders, tons of paper, pens, erasers and other stationary). Shouting a "bye" to Mokuba, who was lounging in the master living room, Kaiba closed the door of his penthouse and headed for the elevator.
Seto Kaiba no longer enjoyed living in mansions. After spending about 6 years in Gozaburo's mansion, Kaiba got bored of looking at the things that turn his life upside down. So, he sold the house, and moved into a penthouse in the most expensive building in the most expensive part of Domino City. He enjoyed living in his new penthouse, and was happy to know that Mokuba was too.
When Kaiba was at the entrance of the building, a Mercedes-Benz that Kaiba had called was waiting for him. The chauffeur opened the door for Kaiba as Kaiba got into the car. He sat back in the leather seat as he instructed the chauffeur to drive him to The Komodo, one of Dominio's most popular (and expensive) cafes.
Kaiba sighed again. He was in for a long night.
ANZU TOOK ANOTHER sip of water, looking at her surroundings. She was at The Komodo, waiting for Kaiba. It was 6:58 PM, so Anzu guessed that Kaiba should be here any minute.
Anzu smiled at herself, glad that she agreed to meet Kaiba at The Komodo, or else she wouldn't have been able to see the beauty of the cafe.
To be honest though, the only reason why Anzu had agreed to meet Kaiba at The Komodo was because Kaiba had promised that he would treat her to some dessert. But now that Anzu was here, she seemed a bit more interested in the scenery instead of the dessert that Kaiba prosmised to buy.
The lights were slightly dim, giving the cafe an eery yet romantic atmosphere. The interior was beautiful; Anzu had never really seen anything like it.
Anzu looked at the entrance. There stood Seto Kaiba. He was wearing clothes from well-known fashion brands, Anzu could tell thanks to her eye of fashion.
Anzu watched Kaiba, who seemed to be searching for someone. No doubt it was Anzu he was looking for.
Anzu and Kaiba's eyes met. For a moment Anzu's heart beated a little faster. Anzu had no idea why her heart was beating faster than usual, but she was getting frightened as her heart beated even faster as Kaiba headed towards her.
Kaiba took a seat across from Anzu, muttering a "hey" while doing so. Anzu greeted him back, watching as Kaiba took his seat.
For a moment both were silent, but eventually Anzu spoke up. "What are we waiting for? Let's get started!" Anzu said happily.
Kaiba didn't say anything, but obeyed Anzu's commands. He placed his briefcase on the round table sitting at and opened it. He handed Anzu at least 12 pages of paper, a pen, an eraser and an pencil. Anzu was surprised. Kaiba noticed the surprised expression on her face.
"Well, one of us has to be prepared here, mine as well be the smartest one," Kaiba said, smirking as he watched Anzu's surprised expression turn into an angry one.
Anzu glared at Kaiba, but didn't say anything. She knew that he was right, but didn't want to say so. Instead, she decided to think of a comeback.
"I hope you know Kaiba, that since I am the planner of the Summer Dance, it also means that I'm the boss, and your my employee. I'll have you know, insults like that could get you fired, which would mean no community service time done. And if you can't finish your community service Kaiba, you can't graduate."
Now it was Anzu's turn to smirk, while Kaiba glared at Anzu.
"Can we just start planning this stupid dance and get it over with?" Kaiba snapped, apparently not in a happy mood. Anzu smiled. "Okie dokie."
An hour later...
"Yay! We're done!" Anzu exclaimed, stretching her arms.
"Yay," Kaiba said lamely as he put the binders, pens, pencils, erasers and paper back into his briefcase for safekeeping. Both Anzu and Kaiba had managed to get lots of things done in an hour. They had planned and discussed the theme of the dance (Summer, duh), how much money they were allowed to spend for the dance, and what the decorations would be. Now all they had to do now put there plan in action.
"Kaiba?" Anzu asked innocently.
"What?" Kaiba snapped, but a little bit gentler than before.
"Buy me a dessert," Anzu commanded.
Kaiba gave Anzu a look. "Why should I?"
Anzu pouted. "You promised you'd buy me a dessert remember?"
Kaiba sighed. He forgot about that.
Anzu lookd at Kaiba. "Dessert?" She asked.
"Fine," Kaiba answered lazily.
Anzu giggled and beckoned for a waitor, while Kaiba leaned in his chair. It was 8:00 PM, and he was expected to be home at around 9:00 PM.
Once the waitor had arrived at Kaiba and Anzu's table, Anzu ordered a strawberry cheesecake, while Kaiba ordered himself a large coffee. The waitor left, noticing that Anzu had a funny look on her face.
Anzu turned her head back to Kaiba. "Coffee at this hour?" Anzu asked. "That sounds weird."
Kaiba thought for a moment, wondering why having coffee at 8:00 PM was weird. It soon came to his mind that drinking coffee in the evening was a bit weird, since coffee would make you stay awake longer. But Kaiba needed to stay up longer, or else he wouldn't be able to finish the work that needed to be done for Kaiba Corp.
"Yeah, I guess drinking coffee at a time like this is kinda weird," Kaiba said. "But I need it. It helps me stay awake longer so I can finish up some work."
"For your oh-so fancy business right?" Anzu asked, looking around, hoping to find the waitor with their snacks anytime soon.
Kaiba glared at Anzu. Again. "It's not just some fancy company, it's Kaiba Corp. Say it properly next time."
Anzu smiled as the waitor who served them was back, snacks in his hand. "Whatever you say Kaiba."
AFTER FINISHING THEIR snacks and drinks, Anzu suggested that Kaiba take her home-by walking. Kaiba had refused; he'd rather take her home by car. But then again, why would Kaiba want to take an enemy's of his home?
"Why pollute the environment when we can save it? Let's walk!" Anzu begged, trying to change Kaiba's mind. Kaiba refused. "You can walk home by yourself; I've got myself car."
Anzu gave a shocked look at Kaiba. "Are you saying that you'd let a poor innocent girl like myself walk home all alone in the dark? I thought we were a team."
Kaiba didn't buy it. "No," he said again.
Anzu now glared at Kaiba. "This is no longer an option for you Kaiba, cause it's a direct order from your boss! Now you are walking me home whether you like or not!"
Kaiba sighed. He wasn't going to win this battle; he never did when it came to girls. He just didn't understand them.
"Fine." Kaiba agreed. "I'll walk you home."
FOR A FEW minutes the walk home was quiet. But, since Anzu was a bit of a of a chatterbox, it didn't take long until she began to start a conversation. All she had to do was shiver. Anzu regretted wearing a green Marc Jacobs shirt and black skirt on a chilly night like this. Her green Dolce & Gabbana crepe jacket wasn't protecting her from the wind much either. The only thing Anzu was happy about wearing (and carrying) now was her Manolo Blahnik heels and green Cesare Paciotti clutch.
Kaiba, who was looking at the trees around him (and actually enjoying the walk a little bit), noticed Anzu shivering and stiffly offered her his DKNY trenchcoat. Anzu accepted almost immeidieately, fascinated by Kaiba's rich clothing.
"Hey, you're wearing Chanel!" Anzu exclaimed, looking at Kaiba's shirt.
"Yeah, I am," Kaiba said. "Something wrong with that?"
"Nope, it's just that most guys I know usually wear clothes by a more manly fashion brand. But you, you're wearing Chanel! That's not only super-duper-mega expensive, it's also girlish!" Anzu finished her little speech, taking a deep breath.
Kaiba thought to himself for a moment. True, Chanel was quite expensive, and in a way, fit for women more than men. But Kaiba really liked wearing clothes by Chanel; it made him twice as rich and powerful than he already was.
"You wear it to attract girls right?" Anzu asked, snuggling into Kaiba's coat. "You only wear Chanel cause it attracts girls to you."
"What??" Kaiba exclaimed in disbelief. No one had ever said something that ridiculous to him before, not even Mokuba. "I wear Chanel cause I like it, not because girls do too."
"Really?" Anzu looked a little confused for a moment. "If you don't attract girls by wearing really expensive clothes, how do you attract them?"
Perhaps Anzu was being a little sterotypical, but she always believed that wealthy businessmen always had a thing for hot looking girls. They'd always do the same thing: attract the girls in some way, buy tons of pretty and expensive things for them, get into their pants, then never call them again. It seemed that Kaiba wasn't like that.
"Why the hell would I want to attract girls just get into their pants?" Kaiba asked, quite curious. "That stuff doesn't amuse me."
Anzu was quite taken back by what Kaiba had just said. Sex didn't amuse Kaiba? Odd. Everybody always knew that men were somehow attracted to orgasms one way or another. Anzu still remembered the time she caught Jounouchi and Honda looking through a dirty magazine (ew).
As the two continued walking they eventually walked up to a nearby pond. Anzu stopped, forcing Kaiba to stop too. Anzu came extremely close to him, looking him directly in the eye.
"So are you saying that you're not getting the lease bit turned on by how close I am to you?" Anzu asked, a tone of sexiness to her voice.
Kaiba looked at Anzu, then rolled his eyes. It was true, men were horny around girls. Of course Kaiba was getting a little turned on, but refused to admit it.
"Sorry Anzu, but you just don't have what it takes to turn a man like me on," Kaiba smirked at his answer. Anzu took that as a insult. Her jaw dropped, and her eyebrows frowned.
Anzu suddenly smiled. In fact, it looked like Anzu's smile had a hint of evilness in it. Kaiba was getting a tiny bit worried.
Anzu got even closer to Kaiba, stopping inches from his face. Her smile turned eviler as she pushed Kaiba right into the pond.
Author's Notes: Okay, okay, don't hate just appreciate, LOL. Yes, this chapter must have been pretty weird for the guys, seeing to the fact that Anzu and Kaiba were talking about fashion for about 75% of the chapter. But hey, think about it: Kaiba is a billionaire right? So shouldn't he wearing clothes by expensive and well-known name brands? And Anzu, she's a girl, so she probably likes fashion in some way. Just if you get confuse, here is the fashion labels I used in this fic, and who was wearing it:
Chanel - Kaiba's shirt
Louis Vuitton - Kaiba's pants; Kaiba's briefcase
DKNY (Donna Karen New York) - Kaiba's trenchcoat
Marc Jacobs - Anzu's skirt; Anzu's shirt
Dolce & Gabbana - Anzu's crepe jacket
Manolo Blahnik - Anzu's shoes
Cesare Paciotti - Anzu's clutch (it's a bag, held like a book in your hand)
Like Sin said before, don't hate, just appreciate. I am trying to write something original here, and this seemed original enough for me. And hey, I bet you I taught some people some new words today! Impress your girlfriends guys! Just say one of the fashion labels to your girlfriend and she'll probably never want to let you go! LOL. BTW, I can't garantee you guys that these pieces of clothing by that certain fashion label actually exsist (I was taking cheap guesses). The only thing I know that surely exsists is the Louis Vuitton briefcase that Kaiba holds.
Yes, it is true: I have moved Kaiba and Mokuba into a penthouse. For any of you who don't know what a penthouse is, it's basically a house in a building. It's usually at the very top expensive buildings. It can have 2 floors, and probably as much rooms as you like. I'm really sorry if it's kinda weird that Kaiba and Mokuba have moved, but I just hated the mansion that Kaiba and Mokuba lived in.
Before I dandy off (?), if anybody knows a good song that is based on this chapter, please tell me! I just couldn't think of a good song for this chapter. Anyways, NOW I will dandy off. Bai bai bai.
