Chapter 10

Alec's Party Part 2 (let the party begin)

Seto and Mokuba arrived just around 6:45pm and the press was setting up when the limo drove up to the mansion. The carters and decorates had come and set up balloons and other decorations mainly duel monsters of blue eyes white dragon and meteor black dragon. Seto walked in to the mansion and saw that the decorations were about the same as the outside.

Mokuba ran up the stairs to finish dressing into his new suit, Seto walked up to his own bedroom. He walked in Alec was still in the bathroom, he knocked on the door, "I am back Alec." Alec yelled through the door, "Don't come in I am not ready yet it a surprise so don't open the door Seto." Seto took his hand off the doorknob and yell to the door, "Ok I am going outside to calm the media circus, you better be at the top of the stairs by the 7:00 which is about 10 minutes from now." Alec yelled through the door, "Ok." Seto left the room wondering what his wife was up too or what had she planed.

Other guests arrived, soon the whole entry hall was full of people Seto stood at the top of the stairs and began to walk down them when he saw Yugi and Joey. Yugi was wearing a very nice black tuxedo, and Joey was wearing a gray tuxedo however, it looked old.

"Well surprised that you could find a suitable suit Wheeler," smirked Seto. Yugi grew angry at this, "Kaiba this party is not for you it is for Alec don't forget that!" Seto turned his gaze to Yugi, "I know it is for her, I spent most of this morning giving her, a birthday present."

Joey was clueless, "What did you get her Seto?" Yugi raised and eyebrow, "Joey if you were married what would your wife do for you." A light went on, inside of Joey's head, "Oh I see, Kaiba you dog, and can't give that woman a break I mean it has been a week since you two got back from your second honeymoon."

Mokuba stepped out of the hall, "May I have your attention please, tonight is my sister's in law's 24th birthday and ladies, gentlemen, press, honored guests, and friends, I give you Mrs. Alexandra Kaiba. Alec stepped out of the hall, she was wearing a slick white dress, with a long train, her blue hair pulled back in jazzed up bun, and her skin was white as snow.

Seto was looking at her; he thought she looked almost like she did back when she was 12, when he first danced with her except with a more angelic appearance to her. Joey and Yugi's mouths dropped at the site of Alec, she looked nothing like she did when they saw her two hours ago. The three men let out a simultaneous, "wow," as they waited for Alec to take Mokuba's arm and walk down the stairs.

Seto left Yugi and Joey and preceded to the bottom of the stairs, when he got there, Alec and Mokuba were waiting for him. Seto extended his elbow and Alec took it letting go of Mokuba's who then walked over to Yamu who was wearing a blue prom dress, her black hair in a braid, and her older brother Duke standing next to her.

Alec walked over to a table with some microphones for press questions, they knew that the press wanted to ask questions, Alec pointed to a news crew on the right, "You people first then I will pick out the ones I am to answer a question too next."

The female reporter spoke, "Mrs. Kaiba, I was wondering, is their any chance of their being an heir to Kaiba Corp other then your brother in law?" she asked Alec. Alec looked at Seto who just nodded his head, Alec answered, "That is currently under decision making at this point after my accident about seven months ago were it was reported that I lost my child. Kaiba and I are with holding that information at the time being," she said. Seto smiled at Alec's answer; they had plans and had already tried that same day to put into effect.

The second reporter, "Alexandra, can you tell us anything that you are planning to do now that your husband has retired from duel monsters?" what was your reaction to the news?" asked the reporter. Alec laughed, "Well one thing is for sure, um, I won't be getting Seto any more duel monster cards to improve his deck," she laughed. The entire crowd of reporters was silent, Alec laughed, "People I am kidded, Seto has always gotten his own cards, and I am glad that he has decided to retire officially, now next question."

The third reporter, "Alexandra, rumors have it that you are giving up your Vice President seat at Industrial Illusions, is this true?" he asked her. Alec laughed again, "Why do I want to quit a great job anyways, no those rumors aren't true however it might happen some day, I will take one more question, then we can all enjoy the party after all it is my birthday."

The fourth reporter, "Mrs. Kaiba, I was wondering are we going to be seeing you duel anytime soon and if so when can we see it?" she asked. Alec move a little uncomfortably, she had really thought about it, "Well, I would have to say that I haven't thought about it much I mean Seto has only been retired from duel monsters for three weeks now. I would have to say I am thinking about it and possibly try and talk the title from my brother Yugi Moto but chances of me beating him are slim, I mean we just joke around while we duel most of the time."

Seto stepped up and spoke into the microphone, "That will be all, and now can we let the party begin," he said. Fire works went off outside, the reporters hurried out the door, Alec smiled, "That was interesting," she said. The fireworks did not last long for soon the DJ started the music and the party began. Everyone headed to the backyard were the real party was, tables were all set up with balloons and big banner saying "Happy Birthday Alec."

Many celebrities were at the party many, which had a taste for Alec. They all approached her thanked her for the party, one even got close to taking her to the dance floor but Yugi intervened, with a message from Seto any man touch Alec other then himself or Kaiba was going to lose where their head would be. Alec looked for Seto in the crowd of guests, she could not see him, and he was one of the tallest men in the room.

Some one walk up behind Alec and placed his hands over her eyes, Alec almost panic but she remained calm as Seto voice came from behind her, "Guess who?" Alec smiled, "Seto playing jokes are we?" Seto removed his hands and Alec turned to face him.

Seto smiled "You look great tonight did I tell you that?" taking Alec's hand and walked her to the dance floor where they began to slow dance. Alec looked up into Seto's blue eyes, "not recently but thank you Seto," she said.

Seto smirked, "A husband should do that more often," he said. Alec giggled, "Well then you better hop to it, then my husband," she giggled, as Seto laughed.

Seto pulled Alec in close for they were at mid arm length away from each other, Alec kissed Seto on the cheek, "Thanks for a great birthday," she whispered into his ear. Seto smiled, "Anything for you Alec," he whispered into her ear.

A loud fog horn went off, Joey took over the DJ's microphone, "Everyone my I have your attention please, it is time to cut the birthday cake, and would Alec please step away from the Kaiba for he will be spoiling your appetite, for he too cold to keep your cake from being eaten," he said.

Seto released Alec, and faced Joey on the DJ's stand giving him an evil glare, as for Joey, he was giving a joking grin, Alec shook her head, no one else caught the joke. Alec walked over to a large table where a large birthday cake with her name on it and some candles around 10 in various places.

Everyone that was there sang "Happy Birthday to Alec, she then went to blow them out but before she did, she made a wish, Seto raised an eyebrow as she looked over at him before bent down blew them out.

When the candles were out everyone applauded, the lights came back on and the music started up again. Seto walked over to Alec, for he separated from her when she got to the cake, "I think you should have first piece birthday girl," he said.

Alec turned, "That is up to Yugi he is cutting the cake it is my birthday and that means no working," she said. Yugi walked up with a shape knife, "Alec which piece you want?" Alec pointed to a corner and Yugi cut the piece of it and handed it to her. Alec took the cake, Yugi asked Seto next since he was married to Alec. Seto took another one of the corners, and he and Alec walked away from the crowd.

Alec took a seat at one of the end of the yard tables where no one except Seto could watch her eat. Alec ate her cake slowly and looked at the night sky quite frequently Seto noticed, "Alec is something wrong?" Alec looked at Seto, "No not really, just thinking about something."

Seto wanted to know what was on her mind, "Alec, your hiding something from me, tell me what is bugging you or at least kill the silence of you and me eating this cake." Alec laughed then looked at Seto's eye, "Um, what if I told you that maybe I don't want to have a baby?" Seto's eye widen, "What, Alec we agreed that you and I would have a child of our own someday."

Alec let out a breath, "Seto I am getting older, I won't be able to have children at the rate you and I are going, I starting to lose the hope I once held so tight. I mean, I used to walk around the mansion listen to the silence then in my head, I hear a baby cry I would then picture pulling the baby out of a crib. However now it is different, I think what if I can never hold a child?" Seto looked down at what was left of his cake, "Alec why do you think I married you?" Alec looked up, "because you love me and we wanted to make a family of our own."

Seto nodded, "Yeah but that isn't all you have a unique gift of making a family out of friends. I mean look at me and Yugi, six years ago I would have just thought of him as another hot shot duelist with potential and the only other person that could beat me at duel monster."

Alec looked back up at the sky, "I know that, if Yugi hadn't beat you, Pegasus would have never kidnapped Moky, and you probably wouldn't have held battle city where you faced Gosaburo who is now gone forever and I am free to be with you. Anyways, I just do not feel that right now is the best time for having a baby I already had two miscarriages and well the doctors say that I am fully able to carry a baby, it is just that…"

Seto took his hand and placed it on Alec's gloved hand that rested on the table and she stopped talking and looked at him. Seto placed a finger on Alec's lips, "You don't need to bring up those old memories, because they belong in the past, and Alec if you don't want a baby now then that is fine with me. You have a family and they are all standing behind you."

Alec turned around, Yugi and Tea were standing behind her along with Joey and Serenity, Alec smiled, and they had heard what Seto just said.

They smiled back at Alec, "Sis, it is ok, you don't need to have your own kids but here is a little info over the last two years you been Mokuba's mother in a way," said Yugi. Alec thought for a moment then spoke, "Yugi, Moky doesn't count, besides Seto is the one that raised him at the proud age of 12, I might add," she said.

Everyone laughed, even Kaiba, "Well that would make you a rookie compared to me," he said. Alec glared, "well see who is the rookie soon enough," she smiled. Seto and the others stopped laughing and looked, "Alec what did you mean by that?" Alec smirked, "Guys I am not, gosh I was making a joke, hello, besides what I meant was I decided to go in to duel monsters."

Seto rose an eyebrow at how quickly Alec had changed the subject he decided to go with the new one she started, "Alec, are you sure?" Alec nodded, "Why not with you are in retirement and Pegasus is about to hand Industrial Illusions to me why not." Everyone laughed, Alec was skilled enough to go against Yugi but the question was she willing to do it.

"Alec, are you willing to go against me your own brother?" asked Yugi surprised. Alec shook her head, "I would be, but I need to think about how far I want to go playing duel monsters. If I go for world champ, well, you know it would come down to me and you," said Alec to Yugi.

The party began to dye down as it went late into the night, as of midnight all the press, VIP's and everyone else that did not live at the mansion was gone. Alec, Seto and Mokuba did not have to clean up the mess because the caterers took care of it.

Mokuba was fast asleep with his head on one of the tables, as Seto and Alec walked back to the backyard to watch clean up. Seto picked up his 16 year old little brother and carried him up to his room. Alec watched as Seto carry Mokuba up the stairs and down the hall to his room.

Seto laid Mokuba down on the bed; Alec stood in the doorway and watched Seto tuck him into bed. Alec walked in behind Seto, "I can see you still treat him like a child," Alec whispered to her husband. Seto turned, "Alec I do not," he said removing Mokuba's shoe.

Alec laughed, "Do to! You could have made him walk up here but no you carried him and now taking off his shoe, that's just like you Seto, you know one day you will have to do that to your own child," she said.

Seto raised an eyebrow, "Alec, it is up to you if you want to be the mother of my child it is your choice," he said slowly. Seto looked at Mokuba who gave a little moved to cover his ears with the pillow, "I think we should move out side," continued Seto.

Alec agreed and stepped out the door, Seto walked out into the hall, Alec shut Mokuba's door. Seto thought that now was as good a time as any; he spun Alec as soon as the door shut and kissed her. Alec taken by complete surprise kissed him back.

"Well that one way you know to convince me," she said. Seto smiled, "So which room the special red room, I made for you and me to use as of your birthday or our room?"

Alec smiled and yawned, "I am pretty tired, I am going to bed in the regular room," she said. Alec then broke Seto's hold on her, and she walked down towards their room. Seto felt at that moment a little disappointed, he then followed Alec to the bedroom.

Seto took off the tuxedo and threw it into a hamper; Alec was in the bathroom getting ready for bed she was taking a very long time, which was a little unusual. Seto had just pulled himself under the covers when Alec opened the bathroom door.

Seto eyes widen, "wow, Alec!" he said in surprise. Alec stood there in red silk pajama dress that was short. Alec smirked, "Now did you really think that I was going to let you have all the fun this morning and afternoon Seto Kaiba," she said. Seto shook his head no; Alec laughed, "I tricked you Seto Kaiba, better then you tricked me."

Seto grinned, "Well are you going to tease me or are we going to make a kid," he snapped. Alec smiled, "Well I can't see why not, but…" Alec stopped, Seto was waiting for this, "BUT," he said.

Alec continued, "But I have some news for you, the reason I was in the bathroom so long was because of this," said, Alec as she held a little strip of two different colors in her hand. Seto's mouth dropped, "Alec does that mean what I think it means?" Alec nodded, "Seto I believe you can start panicking, you're going to be a father."

Seto jumped out of bed and hugged Alec who was full of laughter as he spun her in the air. Seto pulled Alec down close to him and kissed her, "Are you telling me that you're going have a kid?" he asked making sure, he heard his wife correctly.

Alec nodded, taking a box that she had in her other hand, "If I am reading this yes, I am, congrats honey we are going to have a kid of your own," she said.

Seto kissed Alec, she kissed back, and Seto pulled Alec's legs into his arms, "Well then I think we should have little fun before the bundle of joy stops me for another few months," he said. Alec laughed as he carried her over to the bed were he laid her gently on the sheets.

He moved over her and kissed her on the lips, then hopped to the other side of her. Alec rolled to her side and hugged Seto, soon their pajamas were on the ground and the two were wrapping themselves in the bed sheets. In a few hours Alec and Seto were fast asleep and both very happy.
