Blind Dates AHHH!
A/N: Thank you to Lady Moofin for reviewing last chapter. The only one who did. Oh, well. I'm glad you liked the chapter and that it made you laugh. See? I really meant it when I said that there was some really weird jokes in the story. Just relax, none of these dates goes well. Most of them will end in disaster. XD Waah! I already started this chapter but then it was erased when my computer was upgraded!
Chapter 4: Second Blinddate-Youngest CEO in Domino City
Warnings: Probably some out-of-character actions, mild language and some perverted jokes.
This morning, I tried to avoid Miiko's phonecalls. Once I answer that phone, I know that she would tell me that she found someone else to take me out. I still had nightmares about Josephine and Trista. But the cursed phonecalls would not stop! Eventually, mom answered it and talked to Miiko. Then she found out why Miiko was calling. You should've seen the devious look on her face when she was on the phone. She smiled mischievely at me then blackmailed me into talking to Miiko.
I really don't want to tell you what she's blackmailing me with, so we'll just skip that subject. Anyway, I snatched the phone from my evil mom and talked to my crazy friend. She just told me to meet her in front of a specific building and wear something navy blue-colored.
So here I was now, wearing a plaited navy blue skirt and white shirt with a black jacket on top. I crossed my arms over my chest in impatience, She had better get here fast or I'm gonna go home. I remembered that she told me to wait for her in front of a gaming center called 'Kaiba Land.' So where the hell was she now?
"You're the biggest meanie in the world, Kaiba-kun." I heard a familiar voice said behind me.
So I turned around and saw Miiko walking towards me. She was right beside a young boy with long black hair and a tall guy, who looked like he was the same age as us. I sweatdropped when I could see that he was so much taller than Miiko and the little boy. He wasn't smiling at all. I knew that Miiko was annoying, but she can make almost anybody smile at least a little. He was definitely annoyed by the mean expression on his face.
"Hi! Ruri-chan!" Miiko greeted me, running towards me now.
"Hey, Miiko." I said. I hope that short boy is not my date. I've had enough of short boys on the last date. I was fake smiling when she stopped in front of me to catch her breath.
"Guess what, good buddy?" she asked, smiling mischievously.
"What?" I asked, again with a fake smile on my face.
"You get to date the youngest CEO in Domino City!" she exclaimed, presenting her arms to the empty air next to her.
"Huh? He was just here right next to me." she said, blinking and looking around her with a confused expression on her face.
"Do you mean him?" I said, pointing to the tall brunette and the short-blacked hair boy walking towards the entrance of Kaiba Land. They were already ahead of us.
"Come on!" she said, grabbing my hand and pulling me towards them. She ran to catch up with them and I was dragged, not by my own freewill.
"I don't want to do this! I just want to go home and sleep!" I whined, grabbing onto a pole. Miiko was now attempting to loosen my grip on the pole. I was practically hugging the pole and crying for help now. I even screamed 'sexual assault!' and several people looked at me weirdly.
"Please Ruri-chan! Or I'll tell everybody about that thing you did..." Miiko said, pulling on my legs.
"ACK! NO!" I screamed. I didn't want her to tell everybody what I did, but I didn't want to go on blinddates either. AGGHH! Better blinddates than her spilling my secret. Why did so much people have so much dirt on me!
"That's a good girl." Miiko said, when I reluctantly let go of the pole and slowly followed her.
"The last blinddate probably wasn't to your taste of boys so I got you a date with a rich guy!" she whispered excitedly to me. "And he's tall! So you wouldn't complain about lack of height! He's also never had a girlfriend before and maybe if you get lucky..." She had a lewd expression on her face now and she giggled behind her hand.
Please tell me this wasn't happening. Please help me anybody. --;;; Since when did Miiko get so disgusting? I seriously hope she was kidding.
"So maybe if you're lucky, you can be his girlfriend and be awarded with lots and lots of presents!" PHEW! I thought she meant something else. She can just be so unpredictable sometimes. I just had to roll my eyes and pretend to be interested in the dueling arenas so I could possibly sneak away without her noticing. No such luck. She held tightly onto the back of my shirt and her nails were practically threatening to sink in if I were to try to get away.
While we were still walking, the boy with the long black hair, turned around and smiled a little bit. Then he said,"Hi, my name is Kaiba Mokuba. What's yours?"
"Itomi Ruri." I said, smiling back.
"Miiko told me that you're going out with my big brother today." he said, indicating the tall guy next to him. The tall guy was ignoring us, not giving any clue that he was listening to our conversation at all.
"And your big brother's name is?"
"KAIBA SETO!" Miiko answered before Mokuba could open his mouth. The tall guy, Mokuba and I winced and other people in the dueling arenas stared at her. Most of the expressions were like this: oO;;;;; The guy named Kaiba Seto glared at Miiko and it seemed as though he was glaring at me, too.
"Hey, I'm not the one who forced you into this. So don't glare at me like that." I said defensively.
For the first time, during our brief meeting, he finally said something,"But you ARE the person, she's doing this for. You are partly at fault."
"Well, you don't exactly have to do this!" I said, offended by his tone of voice.
He looked down on the floor and I could see a hint of a blush on his face.
"I was bribed into this" he answered, glaring even more at Miiko now.
"What exactly did she catch you doing that you agreed to do this, onni-sama?" Mokuba said, looking mischievous himself.
"Let's just change the subject and get this over with" he grumbled, walking into an elevator.
Whatever Miiko had on him had to be big, since he was still blushing a bit. Amazing. Miiko had something on anybody. Maybe I can get her to blackmail a bank security guard. Err...since when I did turn into a criminal?
"Well, we should go now" Miiko suddenly said, pulling Mokuba out of the elevator as the doors were closing. She smiled, waved at me and mouthed 'good luck'.
"CRAP!" I cursed loudly as the elevator doors closed. Now we were alone together in an elevator, which was slowly (to me, anyway) ascending higher and higher. He stood at the center of the elevator, crossing his arms in annoyance. I was in the corner, trying to stop the elevator by pressing the emergency stop button. But the damn thing wouldn't stop! In frustration, I hit the red button repeatedly. Eventually, it popped out.
"Whoops.." I whispered, hiding the red button into my jacket pocket.
"What's 'whoops'?" he asked, acknowledging me again.
"Um...nothing." I said, pushing the button deeper into my pocket.
It was silent again. Uncomfortable silence. He was into his own little world again then the elevator doors opened. He stepped out of the elevator, I followed him and peered over the side. We were on the outside again. There was a huge mark at the center of the ground. A loud, rumbling sounded above us and when I looked up, I saw a helicopter coming on for a landing on the mark.
"Get into the helicopter and don't say anything. We're going to a high-class restaurant. That's all you need to know." he said, going closer to open the helicopter door.
"What kind of dirt does Miiko have on you anyway?" I asked, completely ignoring what he said earlier.
"Just get into the helicopter and shut up" he said through clenched teeth.
"Not until you tell me what she has on you. Besides if you tell me, then we can just cancel this whole date. If I know, then- HEY! NO! I DON'T WANT TO GO!" I yelled.
He was trying to carry me into the helicopter but I held onto the side of the door. The pilot of the helicopter sweatdropped and was trying to decide what to do: help me or help his boss? Naturally, he would help the one who pays him.
So he pulled my arms while his boss pushed me into the helicopter. I was even more annoyed by him so I glared at him throughout the whole trip to the restaurant. He wasn't affected at all. He just ignored me and ordered the pilot to force me out of the helicopter when we landed in front of the restaurant. We could've gone on car or feet but no, we had to go by helicopter.
So when I was rudely shoved out of the helicopter, I looked up at the restaurant. It was a sushi restaurant, which is not a great choice because I don't like sushi at all.
A/N: On the next chapter, disastrous things happen and why exactly does Kaiba keep blushing whenever the subject of Miiko's bribe comes up? Don't flame. There's practically no romance here!
