Title: Soul-Mates

Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh
A/N: Sorry for the lateness of my stories but it can't be helped. This is very short but I just finished uploading and typing all of the chapters for Immortal (now finished). Also as to Nightfall2525's review (necessary here) this story although a sequel will have nothing to do with Crimson.
Crimson was Bakura and Anzu's storyline here there will no vampires (cries). This story takes place after Tea's and Malik's souls were torn apart in heaven and they were reincarnated. They are now "normal" humans, okay? Also I noticed a mistake from the previous chapter: Duke Devlin is not going to be a supporting character as I had stated in the previous author's note, okay? Here we go finally…
Chapter three: The Road to Detention: A Serene Moment
Tea squirmed in her desk the entire first period as Malik continued to look at her non-stop. He would only divert his attention for a second to send Yugi a nasty look but returned his full attention to her soon after. She couldn't help but feel intimidated as she still had no idea as to what he was up to. That and the fact that Yugi kept glaring at the both of them made her very uneasy.
The fact that she was going to have to survive an entire afternoon alone with him made her regret waking up that morning, even her step-father was better than this.
'I wonder why Miss Princess is so nervous' thought Malik, 'maybe I won't have to work so hard on getting her on my side, she hasn't stopped looking at me but that Yugi is going to be a problem since he never leaves her side and on top of that I have detention and won't have time to talk to her, dam my luck.'
The bell rung but the students were stopped by the teacher. "Ms. Gardner and Mr. Ishtar do not forget this afternoon's detention. At that the students were free to leave a few happier than the rest. 'She has detention too, aren't I the lucky one' thought Malik as he wicked at Tea before she left the room.
"I don't know what you're up to Ishtar but Tea is mine so hands off her understood?" came a voice from behind Malik. He turned around to see Yugi there extremely self-assured. "Listen Mouto, Gardner's up for grabs whenever I want. You are nothing compared to me" came Malik's cocky reply as he left a steaming Yugi behind.
The rest of the day passed by all too slow for Malik who couldn't wait to be alone with Tea. He caught glimpses of her in the hallway but nothing more than that. She wasn't even seen during lunch period and he wondered where she was. Come to think of it he never saw her during lunch. He began to wander the halls after stuffing his lunch in his mailbag. It was a good thing that he had brought a container to keep it. He was always prepared for everything like his dagger in his back pocket. If anyone ever found it he would most likely be suspended but another vacation from school wasn't that bad. Now all he had to do was find out where she was.
Lunch period was almost over when he had all but decided to forget about Gardner's disappearance. As he made his way back to main hallway, he heard a soft melody being played from one of the classrooms. His curious nature took over as silently opened the door and stood amazed at what he saw. Tea was in the middle of the room dancing graciously to the music. Her movements stunned him into silence as he observed her every move and marveled at her talent. He had never imagined that she could be so beautiful. The way she moved reminded him of his sister. She had also loved to dance and had been very good at it.
His sister had been the only one he had ever cared for, the only one to ever care for him. She had tried her best to keep them both alive after they fled from Egypt and from his father. The bastard had treated them lower than dirt but he had overcome it all with the help of his older sister. Ishizu had worked day and night to be able to feed them and get them a nice place to live. But she had lost her job at Industrial Illusions after developing a new prototype of sorts for them.
She had gotten sick after that and had shortly died. Malik had tried to get the money for her to get well but it had been too late. By then she had passed away and the money had been used for her funeral. He had made sure that it was beautiful and that she would have liked it. He was so alone and he hated it.
Her death had been the one thing to ever make him cry and he feared doing so again. Tears began to appear in his eyes as he watched Tea finish the song and do her final stance. He was brought out of his trance as Tea stood frozen at the spot, seeing him there and above all crying. It was going to be hard to explain himself out of this one.
Misery: So like it? Tell me but no flames. I hope you all keep reviewing as I am finally updating again after so many months.
