"Welcome to-----Oh dear. Seto! I barley recognized you! You've gotten….so tall." My goodness it's hard t believe you only came up to my………. Oh who is this nice young lady? Is she your wife?" The white haired woman asked him.

Ishuzu caught a glimpse of Seto, he was blushing, "And he says I blush too much?" she thought.

"Well come on in don't stand in the door way. Your friends are in the back." The woman told them.

Making there way toward the back Ishuzu asked Seto continuously were was he and Mokuba's old room. And did so until he led her to the room. The room was a pale blue color and the buck beds where lined up along the walks, leaving a walk way in the middle of the room.

"This one." Kaiba said pointing to the bed nears to the door

"Did you sleep on the top or bottom?" Ishuzu said, not realizing how it sounded.

"Excuse me?" Kaiba said looking back at her.

Ishuzu blushed and laughed nervously, "I meant which bed. Top or bottom. Not in that way." The embarrassment that Ishuzu felt was unbearable. Seto was giving her a blank stare which wasn't helping at the least.

"I really don't remember." He said moving toward her. And stopping a inch or so a way from her. He looked down at her and smirked. Leaning down he got a inch away from her lips. Ishuzu felt calm not really thinking he'd do it especially where they were. However he did, pressing his lips against her own. Her heart pounded inside her chest, it was a shocked to her maybe even Kaiba himself. Ishuzu pulled away, and blushed brightly.

"What was that for?"

"I just felt like it." He told her, "Besides there something I was meaning to ask you."

"What?" Ishuzu asked him and was still up against the wall but was entirely comfortable.

"……I'll ask later."

Meanwhile Serenity looking through the classified adds in the newspaper. She really needed a job so she could stop asking Marik for money. There wasn't much that she could do, the only thing she was good at was modeling and. "Maybe I should be a bartender."

"You don't just become a bartender. You have to go to a school for that." Marik said, "You need to go to college."

"I couldn't agree more.' Serenity said lets go to your room and think about that."

"Love too but can't I have to go to work."

"Work! It's noon. What club is open at noon?"

"I'm not going to the club. I'm going to the gym."

"Why?"

"I'm a personal trainer. I have to make some money somehow."

"You a personal trainer…….I got a question. How could I get a narrower hips."

"There's no way." Marik said seriously but was really joking, "Once you have big hips it's for life. But they look good on you."

"You think so."

"Yeah really." Marik leaned other her and pulled her to her feet, "Why don't you come. And you can come to the club with me after words."

"Really." Serenity said running into her room to change.

"Yeah, I actually like having you around."

"Really I thought I was a burden." She called out.

"You are. But not so much anymore."

"I'm you're girlfriend? Cuz I consider you my boyfriend." Serenity said from in her room as she change in to something else.

"You do!" Marik shrieked.

"Yeah. We're a regular Will and Grace. Accept you're not gay." Marik plopped down on the couch as he waited, her could see Serenity refection in the window. She wasn't wearing a top but it wasn't anything he hadn't seem before, "Besides we've done everything a couple would." Serenity came out in a pink pair or short shorts and a tank top, "Really to go?"

"Good. Come on." Marik said leaving out the door, Serenity not far behind."

The gym wasn't very far but Serenity didn't understand way they didn't just walk. Marik explained that they were going straight to the club after they were finished d at the gym.

Arriving at the gym they went their separate ways. Serenity join a step aerobic class. While Marik was being a trainer. The guy he was training was one of the many people that were competing in the Celebe look alike contest in the fall. The man was trying to look like Seto Kaiba But it was going to take more than working out. "But he does have the palest down pact." Marik thought, "But then again Kaiba isn't as pale as he use to be."

Serenity was having fun working up a sweat. She loved exercising and dancing to the music. It really got her heart pumping. After a hour long class, she were into the steam-room. She got a private room so she could strip down completely. Laying down on the bamboo bench she closed her eyes for a short cat nap.

Meanwhile, back at the Orphanage Kaiba was sitting on an old swing. Watching his brother talk to his old enemies. Looking at them, he could remember every fight he had gotten into and won of course. Kaiba didn't know were Ishuzu went, but he really wish she'd show up soon.

"I haven't seen one kid around here all day." He thought. Just before he heard a bunch of pattering feet from behind him, "There they are." He thought in turn to see how many they were. But he could feel them standing around him.

"You lived here once right." One of the boys piped up after being coached on to ask.

"Yes. Why do you ask?" Turing slightly to the

"Cuz, Troy said that you didn't. But I read up on you and your brother. Is it true that you're really dad's body was never found. Yeah know in the explosion!"

"Where on earth did you hear that?"

"It was on the web. And in the newspaper a while ago."

"You can't trust the media." Kaiba said, "What are you names?"

"Troy."

"Jackie.'

"Tarso."

"Chua."

"Interesting set of names. How long have you been here?"

"The longest time. I was abandoned at birth." Tarso said, the woman that found me dead three days later."

"I just go here last week." Chua said stretched, "My mom's a shooter." he said motioning to his arm, "Killed herself. I'm not to upset . I saw it coming, just prepared myself for the unavoidable."

"I've been here for three months. But my parents will come back for me." Jackie said obviously in denial.

"Kaiba could you please tell Jackie that his parents aren't coming back for him."

"Sorry, kid..Jackie. The truth is they aren't ever coming back. My father dropped me and my brother off and didn't come back. Of course after five years and a successful pre-teen life. He came back only to acquire a restraining order."

"You're brother couldn't have been okay with that." Troy said.

"He felt fine with it. So now you guys know the real story. But don't go around telling your friends. What ever story about him you read or hear. Just go with it. Okay."

"You're a lot nicer that people say." Tarso told him, "People say you abandon you're pass."

"That's not really true. Is I abandon my pass. I doubt would have like having Mokuba around. "

"So what's he going to do? Job wise. I read that he wasn't going to take you place when you kicked the bucket."

"Not completely true. But I have intentions of going first. They say the bigger you waist the shorter you're life."

"So you're going to live forever then." Jackie laughed
