'thoughts'


"Hey tea, guess where are you going to spend your holidays?" joey asked tea as they sat inside his living room.

"Umm… my living room?" she said, knowing that she couldn't afford to go with them.

"No, you're coming with us." Tristen said.

"You won't believe what happened. We were selecting a place and kaiba said he had already made all the arrangements. He bought this really cool mansion up in the country side." Yugi said.

"Well, it's not really country side. It is in a beautiful place with beach on one side and small hills, perfect for hiking, on the other side." ryou corrected yugi and yugi rolled his eyes.

"So now you can come with us." Yugi said. Tea was shocked. Seto bought the whole place? Of course he had the money to buy it and he could have bought it any time he wanted. But did he buy it so she could go? Did he not want to stay away from here even for a week or a month? Did he really care for her and wanted her to have fun? All these questions jumbled in her mind.

"So tea, you're coming, right?"Ryou asked her hopefully.

"Well…." she started and glanced at their anxious faces. "Okay." She finally said and they smiled.

"Cool. You can help us pull pranks at people." Joey said punching in the air.

"Joey and tristen pull pranks at people everywhere we go." Yugi said sighing.

"But their pranks aren't as bad as bakura, marik and malik. Those guys are truly evil." Ryou said, shuddering at some old memories.

"One time they blew up the hotel room and damaged the lobby. They had some big ass fire crackers on them." Joey said smirking.

"Yeah, you should have seen it. There was a freakin' big hole in the roof. A part of it just blew away." tristen said laughing.

"It cost the hotel a lot of money to repair it. And their reputation was ruined as well. But they paid for it and also managed to stay out of jail." Yugi said.

"So in other words, I better stay clear of them." Tea said smiling.

"You better, for your own good." ryou said chuckling.


"Where the hell is he?" joey asked for the hundredth time. Everyone was standing outside joey's mansion, waiting for kaiba to arrive.

"Yo tea, do you have a ride, cause if you don't…" marik said tapping his bike. He held an extra helmet in his hand suggestively.

"She's with us." Joey said, glaring at marik.

"I didn't ask you fido, so shut up." marik snarled. Joey got pissed and wanted to beat up marik, but yugi and tristen held him back.

"No thanks marik. Like joey said, I'm with them." Tea said. Marik shrugged his shoulders and flipped the helmet over his head.

"Where the hell is kaiba?" yami yelled in frustration. Just then, a blue sports car pulled in front of them and mokuba stepped outside.

"Hey guys, sorry we're late. We had to make a few phone calls." Mokuba replied sheepishly.

"You could have called us to let us know. Anyway. Let's go now." Bakura said.

"Wait, where are the rest of the girls?" mokuba asked.

"They are probably still inside, fixing themselves." Malik chuckled.

"Someone better go call them. We have to leave now." Mokuba said.

"Let's leave them. It'll be so much fun without them." Marik said.

"They'll find us. And then they'll kill our hearing with their screeching." Seto finally spoke.

"Fine, ill go get them." Duke said and left.

"Let's get into our rides." Mokuba said. Seto glanced at tea, hoping to catch her eyes. When he did, he motioned for her to come to him. But she shook her head, pointing at joey's car. Seto frowned and turned his head away. Tea sighed, knowing that he was angry.

The girls came out with duke ahead of them. Tea hadn't seen them when she came, but now she saw that they were wearing expensive clothes. Mai was wearing a purple mini skirt and a white deep neck shirt. Serenity was wearing similar clothes but they were pink. Miho was wearing violet. Ishizu was dressed more decently. She was wearing a knee length shirt and a white cotton shirt. Tea had to admit she looked pretty hot.

Tea glanced at yami to see his reaction, but he had his back to her and was busy talking to bakura. Tea saw the disappointed look in ishizu's eyes and felt sorry for her. She did it all for him, and he didn't even pay attention. The girls sat in mai's purple convertible. Everyone was seated now. Tea was sitting with yugi and ryou at the back, with joey at the wheel and tristen in the passenger seat. Marik was on his bike. Yami was driving his car while bakura sat with him. Duke was in his car and malik was with him. In the last car, seto sat with mokuba.

"Okay, let's roll." Mokuba said and the cars started moving.


"Wow, this is so beautiful." Tea gasped as they pulled into the driveway of the mansion. It was a huge mansion with an equally huge garden. There were fountains at the front. Flowerbeds decorated the pathways.

"For someone who has never been to any worthy place, this is heaven." miho snickered from behind tea.

"you better take a good look bitch. cause never know. maybe by next time, the guys would have screwed you already and wouldn't need you any more. so you wouldn't get a chance to see these expensive places." mai said in a low tone so only tea could hear them.

"Kaiba, I have to say, this is pretty cool." Malik said, obvioulsy unaware of the conversation between the girls. seto rolled his eyes.

"Let's go inside. I'll show you your rooms, so you can put your stuff in there." Mokuba said and ran inside the mansion. Everyone followed him. Tea followed as well, but felt someone grab her arm and spin her around. Blue eyes met with blue. Seto smirked.

"What do you think?" he asked with a smirk on his face.

"It's sweet. I'm impressed." She answered with a smile on her face.

"Sweet?" he asked raising an eyebrow.

"Yes. Very sweet of you." she replied and rubbed nose with his nose. He dove his head to capture her lips in a kiss but she pulled back.

"Someone will see. I have to go, or joey will think marik abducted me or something." tea said.

"Why do you care so much about that mutt?" seto said distastefully.

"Hey, he's my friend, and I don't want you to call him that." she said.

"That's what he really is. Anyway, I'll see you tonight. Here's a spare key to my room." he thrust a key in her hand.

"Ooh. I can come in your room any time I want." She said slyly.

"So can I… in your room." he said, holding up a key. It didn't take tea more then a second to realize that it was a key to her room. She tried to snatch it but he moved back.

"Uh-uh." He said holding it up high in air.

"Give it to me. I don't want you to just barge into my room when I'm…" she let it hanging there, deciding whether she should say it or not.

"Naked?" he finished for her. Tea blushed. "That's what I'm planning for." He whispered in her ear and walked inside, laughing lightly. Tea grumbled but followed him.


"Hey tea, come out. I'll show you all the cool stuff around here." Mokuba said peeking into her room. She had just finished unpacking.

"Sure." She said. She needed to get out of the room anyway.

"Then let's go already. Joey is already planning to jump into the pool." Mokuba yelled as he ran ahead. Tea followed him. She stopped dead in her tracks when she saw the pool. It was HUGE, and beautiful. It seemed like a pool of some famous celebrity. But then again, kaiba was no less then a celebrity.

"What do you think tea?" mokuba asked her.

"It's totally amazing." She replied.

"Well then, hop in. we are about to start pool volleyball." Joey said from behind her. He was holding a ball in his hands.

"Sure. I just have to go change." She said.

"Why? Aren't you wearing anything under those clothes?" marik said smirking.

"Even if you're not, we don't mind tea." bakura said and tea had to stop her from throwing something at them.

"You guys are such pervs." She said rolling her eyes. "I'll be back in a second." She said and ran inside. She saw seto walking to his room.

"Hey seto." She called. He stopped and turned to face her.

"What?" he asked.

Aren't you coming to the pool?" she asked him.

"No." came his flat reply.

"Why? Everyone is out there." She said in a kind of whining voice. She wanted him to be there.

"I have something very important to do right now," he said.

"Oh ok." She replied, disappointed. "I guess I'll see you later then." She said and started walking towards her room. But he grabbed her arm.

"You bet you will." He said with a smirk and let her go. She watched him go into his room.

'Sometime, he acts so weird.' She thought to herself. She hurried into her room, found her swimsuit and put it on. It was one piece and black colored. She glanced into the mirror to see her reflection. She looked decent. She didn't think she was hot, but she knew she was average looking. She glanced at the watch. She had taken 15 minutes to get ready, far too much for the guys patience. She ran towards the pool, but stopped when she heard voices coming from behind a closed door.

"You're back pretty fast. I thought it was gonna take some time." Mai said that. Tea leaned against the door to hear what they were talking about. Normally he would never do this, but when it came to these girls, it was better to do it for your own safety.

"He didn't want to let me go that easily. wenever get a chance to be alone any more.but I had to leave. I don't want her to get suspicious." Serenity spoke, and tea found herself thinking. Who was "he"? Who didn't she want to know about their relationship?

"So, what did kaiba say?" miho asked and tea froze. Serenity was with kaiba?

"Yeah, what was the important thing that he called you for?" mai asked. Tea gasped. Important? That's what seto told her.

"Nothing. He said he missed me and wanted to be with me for a while." Serenity's voice came. "It has been a while you know. He has been too busy with that bitch."

"I still can't believe you trust him with her. I mean. She is a slut. What if kaiba falls for her?" ishizu spoke.

"I know seto. He doesn't like her one bit. He hates her. He is only doing that for me. I told him how much I hated tea, so he decided to play with her to make me happy. He said he was going to break her and teach her a lesson. That whore thinks she can mess with us. But she doesn't know her place." Serenity said and tea found it hard to breath. Could it be true? Was seto just playing with her?

"We all know kaiba is the only one who isn't charmed by her… yet." Ishizu said.

"You bet. He told me she is ugly and is nothing compared to me. Just now, he kissed me so passionately and said that it felt so much better then kissing that excuse for a girl." Serenity said.

"Wow, you're so lucky. " miho said.

"I know. Just look at this place. He bought it for me. You remember the day I came so late at night? I was with him. We were looking at places for the vacation and I found this place. I told him this was an ideal place for a romantic honeymoon. He asked me if I liked it. I said I loved it. And the next day, he called to tell me he bought it. And do you know what he said when he called me? He said why wait till we are married? We can have our honey moon here any time we want now." serenity said.

"That is so romantic. He is so sweet." Mai said.

"And that's just not it. He said he was going to finish this charade with tea soon as well. He was sick of her. She was clinging to him, hoping that she would marry him. Boy, is she wrong." Serenity said laughing.

"Yup. Can't wait for that to happen." Mai said.

Outside the room, tea sank to the floor, having lost the strength to stand.

"This can't be true." She slowly whispered. "It just can't."
