AS: Sorry for the late update. I'm so so so so so so so so so so sorry. I had all this home work from school and I just this job and all this junk is piling up. But I'm finding the time to do this.
Seto: Much to the dislike of us. Your back for more torture.
Serenity: Oh it's not torture Seto you're just over reacting.
AS: Well to compensate for your discomfort I will not have any lessons today.
Seto: That's not because you want to compensate for it. You just can't think of anything else for me to learn.
AS: That's not true Seto. I can think up plenty of stuff. I just don't want to. Any way. When we left off Seto and Serenity had their fight. And it was about a closet. What's in that closet of mystery so that Seto would go berserk? I still haven't decided weather or not I should but it in this chapter or not. I'll think about it. –Insert Jeopardy music here- Ok I have come to a decision. I WILL NOT I repeat I WILL NOT talk about the mysterious closet in this chapter.
Ok here we go.
Grounded.
Kaiba went back up to his room and ran into his closet (A/N: didn't think it was going to be that soon did ya? Well good because I'm not going into detail right now.) Once he saw that everything was in there, he walked out and felt ...................................................guilty. 'No, why would I feel guilty. I had every right to say what I did. I mean I let her AND her brother into MY house and just because I jumped to conclusions.... Maybe I should apologize? NO! I shouldn't apologize. She shouldn't have been here anyway. But it IS a big house I mean it's easy to get lost. And she did just get out of a coma and concussion. Maybe I shouldn't have yelled at her like that. NO! THIS IS MY HOUSE SHE IS A GUEST THAT I CAN KICK OUT ANY TIME I WANT!!!!!!!!!! I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT!!!!!!!' With that mental tantrum he went over to his desk and back to work.
Serenity walked over to the kitchen where Joey and Mokuba were STILL eating. She sighed and went up into her room. She found that the things Joey had taken from their house for her had been taken up there and were neatly laid out on the bed. She heard some movement tin the bathroom connected to her room and went to go see what it was. When she got there, there was a maid cleaning it up. The maid (Jackie) was cleaning the toilet when he noticed her.
"Oh Miss I'm so sorry. I was supposed to have this done by the time you got here but I arrived late because of the rain. I'm so sorry please forgive me and don't tell Mister Kaiba."
Serenity smiled and said "Don't worry I won't. And why don't you let me help you. I have found that cleaning helps me relieve stress and I'm very stressed out right now."
"Miss it's my job. You shouldn't help me clean what was supposed to be finished over an hour ago. And you're the guest. You shouldn't have to clean."
"If you don't want me to help clean would you like to help me put some of my clothes away?"
Jackie nodded and stood up. They walked over to the bed and found that Laura and Lauren were there to put away the clothes and they also brought up the ones they bought earlier. Serenity said hello and helped them.
The four of them started talking about themselves for Serenity. And by the time they had finished all the clothes were put away, the bed was neatly folded, the bathroom was cleaned, closet organized and everything dusted. When they looked at the clock they noticed it was time for dinner. Serenity asked if they would like to come but they said. "That would be above our rank Ren. We'll see you after though. Bye." Serenity said bye and was about to head towards the kitchen but she forgot where were it was. She began to turn around but then they all took her by the arm and started to lead her the way down. Also teaching her way to remember.
All of them were just a year older than her so they got alone fairly well. They all liked the same things and by the time they reached the kitchen they had made a date for all of them and Mai (Serenity told them about her and they said they would like to meet her.) would all go out shopping on Saturday. They all had the day off. So they went and led her to the door. They said goodbye and went to finish off their chores.
Serenity walked in and found Joey, Mokuba and Kaiba all waiting at the table for her. She blushed slightly and sat down next to Joey.
"What took you so long?" Asked Kaiba he looked mad from their argument before.
Serenity sighed and turned to him. "For your information Mister High And Mighty, I was talking with some friends. And you know you should probably get to know some of your maids because they're very nice."
"I don't care just hurry up next time ok." With that the kitchen maids started to serve the food. The smell filled Serenity's nose. She sighed and started to eat with the etiquette she learned from Mai. Joey however eats with his same somewhat disgusting habits. Kaiba saw the difference between them and was reminded why he had a crush on Serenity. Mokuba looking at his brother and seeing that gleam in his eye knew what he was thinking. I'm going to hook them up. My brother needs some one like Serenity. She's so sweet and pretty. He smiled and started to make up his plan.
Serenity saw his mischievous grin and suspected something. "What are you thinking about Mokuba?"
"Huh? Oh just that this kid in my class played this really mean prank on a new kid."
"Why that's not a thing to grin about. Being new is hard. Maybe you should do something to make the kid feel better."
"Yeah that would be good." Mokuba looked down at his food. It wasn't a complete lie. That did happen today. Maybe I should do something to make Emily feel better. I KNOW! I'll bake her cookies. Girls love food right! That's what I'll do. Besides she's really nice.
He started eating again. And saw that Serenity and Joey were whispering together. Kaiba looked at them and then Mokuba. "Why so secretive Wheelers?"
Joey rolled his eyes and looked at Kaiba. Serenity smiled and said, "It's nothing. But Joey and I have to leave soon. Thank you for taking us here or the night."
"Serenity. You two are not going back. I know what happened to you two and you will NOT be put in that situation again." Kaiba said to her.
Mokuba just smiled at his bigger brother. Maybe I don't have to do anything and let it happen by itself. Oh Seto cares about her sooo much.
"Thank you Kaiba but-"
"NO! You ....and your brother are staying here."
She put on a small smile and whispered thank you. Joey just looked at him. And then said "Danks for dis Kaiba."
"Yeah whatever."
Serenity stayed quiet for a moment then something in her mind clicked. "DID YOU TELL HIM JOEY????!!!!!"
"Wow wheeler. That took you longer than I thought it would. And yes he did tell me."
"I was talking to my brother Kaiba. Why Joey he doesn't have to know. And besides you hate him."
Joey just looked startled. "Hey you dink I didn' try to prevent dis." Serenity sighed and started eating again.
"Look Serenity. It's not like we don't know what you two are going through." Spoke Mokuba. "Seto's and my life was similar. Mostly Seto though."
Kaiba growled and scowled at his brother. "You didn't have to tell them that Mokuba. They didn't need to know."
Serenity said something before Mokuba could though. "Oh Kaiba I'm so sorry. That's horrible."
"Safe it Serenity. I don't need your pity." He gave her a cold look and watched as she looked somewhat ashamed. He felt that feel of guilt feeling again. Gosh why do I always feel like this whenever I do something like that to her. I don't feel this way around any one else. Not even Mokuba on some days.
Every one finished eating in silence. Once they were done Serenity And Joey said they were going to go to bed.
Mokuba turned to Kaiba once they were out of the room. "You didn't have to be so mean to her Seto. She was just trying to be nice. Now you probably made her sad." Then Mokuba saw the look on his brother's face. It was guilt!
"You like her." Seto turned his attention back to Mokuba, he glared at his little brother and said. "That's impossible Mokuba. She's a wheeler. How could I like her?"
And without thinking about what he was saying Mokuba answered. "Because I read your diary and it said you loved her." And then he realized it. His eyes widened and he could see his brother's anger coming out. He got up from his chair slowly and started to back away. Kaiba's sudden movement made him stop in his tracks. His eyes widened even more (If it were possible).
"Mokuba," Kaiba said slowly, "Haven't I told you NOT to go through my things, and-"
"It's not only me ME Seto, all of the staff does it too. Oh crap." And yet again if it's possible his eyes got wider. He could hear Kaiba breathing slowly trying really hard not to yell at his younger brother. I'm in so much trouble. And I just had to go and throw all the others into it to Well it can't get any worse can it? Maybe I should tell him that I told Serenity.
"Um Seto?"
"Yes Mokuba." He used a fake sweet voice and that scared Mokuba even more.
"I hope you don't mind that IalreadytoldSerenity."
Kaiba only understood the word Serenity. So he did what any love stricken man would to. Yell.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY MOKUBA!!!"
"I ummmmm uh told her the-that you l-loved h-he-her."
Kaiba just closed his. Mokuba knew what was going to happen. It was something like Mount Wanahugaluggy (1). Nothing seems to be happening but then something turns and then wham! You're dead.
Kaiba spoke and it was quiet at first. "You did what Mokuba?" It was only a whisper barely audible, but Mokuba heard. He pretended he didn't know. Only to buy time.
"What was that Seto"
This time Kaiba's eyes shot open looking like fiery flames of death. "YOU WHAT MOKUBA??????!!!!!!!!"
"I uh well you seem to know what I did."
"Mokuba. You are grounded for a month. No T.V, no video games of any kind, including PS2, game cube, that old crappy Nintendo thing you have, computer game, X box, game boy, and anything else I failed to mention. You are banned from calling friends, including Yugi and any of that group, no going to any friend's house either. The only place you are aloud to go is this house and school. No seeing that girlfriend of yours, no searching the web for any reason what-so-ever-"
"But Seto what if I have a project or something?"
"Ask me. One last thing Mokuba. No sugar. Of any kind."
Mokuba eyes looked deeply sad at the last part. Sugar was his life (A/N: At least, that's what my friends and I think.).
"What am I going to do without sugar Seto? And Tiff (his girlfriend)?"
"That is not my problem Mokuba you are going to learn the importance of staying out of other people's business. One lesson that you really need to learn. And if you think you can hide and go behind my back, don't. The only rooms I don't have cameras in are mine, my office and the bathrooms."
"Ewww Seto that's disgusting."
"Huh Mokuba you have a sick mind. And besides it's for your own safety but that's beside the point. Go to your room."
1) So for those of you who have seen finding Nemo you probably know what I am talking about. For those who haven't, it's in a fish tank and it has this thing that tens and makes a lot of bubbles so it looks like its exploding.
It's a good movie and I recommend it to any one.
Ok so how was that. Again sorry for not updating for so long. My bad. Forgive me? Well any way review please.
