I found that my grammar was especially bad last chapter so sorry about that. I'm trying to improve on that so please bear with me. And I emailed everyone who reviewed me and told them that Chapter 10 was up when it wasn't so I'm sorry for that too.

I'll try to make this chapter longer.

Chapter 11


When they got back to Tea's they decided to order out because Tea didn't feel like cooking.

"No, Joey I'm not letting you order pineapples on the pizza! I hate it and I think you need to learn that fruits and pizzas don't mix!" Serenity knew her brother liked everything on his pizza (as in everything they could possibly put on there) but they were only ordering one pizza and all that he wanted was too much to just pick off.

"Well you have to get something on there! All you ever get is cheese!" Joey protested.

They all decided on just cheese. With two women and one man they over powered him. When it finally came time for them to eat Joey attacked the pizza as if he would lose it if he didn't eat fast enough. Poor Tea and Serenity didn't get much to eat.

When they finished Tea made a giant bowl of ice cream for herself and Serenity secretly searched for Tea's phone book. She thought that since she was the only one who wanted Kaiba to help and the only one who thought he would that she would take things into her own hands. Serenity looked up Kaiba, Seto and once she found the phone number she called it. She made herself comfortable on Tea's bed and waited for him to answer the phone as it rang.


Kaiba was working on some paper work in his personal office. He hated all the paper work he had to do at home and at work. He ran his fingers through his hair, very frustrated.

When he heard the phone ring he wanted to break something. And for a while he considered not answering it but it's ringing was killing him so he looked across his desk to see if he knew the number. His caller id read Unknown Caller. Even angrier he snatched up the phone.

"WHAT!" He answered, angry at who ever decided to call him.

"Well that is a lovely way to answer the phone, Seto" Serenity told him taken aback by his rude greeting.

"WHO THE HELL IS THIS!" Kaiba asked angrier than before.

"It's Serenity, Joey's sister," Serenity said a little scared that he would be yell at her again.

"I know your Joey's sister! He never stops talking about you!" Kaiba said surprised that Serenity Wheeler was calling him.

Why is she calling me! She's going to make me crazy! Why can't she just leave alone? I told her I wouldn't help her and it's like she knows she's taking away my sanity!

"What do you want?" Kaiba asked trying to hide his crazy thoughts. (He still asked rudely mind you).

"Look I'm hungry and I still need you to help me. So I'll take you out to dinner and convince you to help me." Serenity said very casually.

NO, NO! Tell her no! You aren't going to help her and you don't want to date her! OH MY GOD SHE'S TYRING TO SUDUCE ME!

"I… you… I'll have to think about it!" Kaiba snapped.

"I don't have time for you to think about it! I'm not trying to ask you out I just need to talk to you!"

"Then talk to me over the phone!"

"But I'm hungry and I like to talk to people in person."

Serenity didn't want to admit it to anyone, let alone Kaiba, but she wanted to see him in his adorable excellence again. It was true, she thought he was cute, very cute. But she couldn't decide if she had feelings for him or not. She defiantly didn't like how he treated her brother but all together she wanted to ask him out and even though she kept telling herself that it wasn't a date she liked to think it was.

"I have a lot of paper work…" Kaiba didn't really sound as if he was using this as an excuse. "I'm not hungry either!"

"How long as it been since you've really talked to someone without using sarcasm or rude commons?" Serenity was going to try and 'break him' with things he couldn't say no to.

"What do you care?"

"I just think I could understand you"

"Do you think I don't have a life, Wheeler?"

"You have a boring life, that's for sure."

Kaiba was a loss for words but he was so angry that he was blowing all kinds of fuses (A.N/ is that the right word? Fuses?).

"Meet me in the park" Serenity said smiling and hung up before he could protest. She took his silence as a good opportunity to take control. She knew that if he were any kind of a gentleman he would show up.

Serenity emerged from Tea's room smiling. She was rather excited to meet Kaiba and talk him into his soft side. She grabbed her purse and high heel shoes and headed for the door.

"Where are you going?" Tea asked, as she looked up from her half eaten bowl of ice cream.

"I think I'm just going to the park to take a walk."

Joey looked at her shoes and turned his eyebrows up. "And you're wearing those shoes?" he asked confused.

"I'll probably take them off and run through the grass."

"Well I want to come." Joey said getting up from the couch.

"NO!" Serenity snapped. "I mean, I just want to go by myself. It's good for the soul!"

"Okaaaay," Joey said still confused as he sat back down on the couch.

Serenity decided that the best thing was for her to just leave. She put her purse over her shoulder and walked down to the ground floor.

"Have fun," Tea called after her, mostly preoccupied with her ice cream.

Tea and Joey had to wait only about two minutes before Serenity came back up.

"Yeah… Tea, I need the keys…" Serenity said looking at shoes.

"Oh there in my purse, on the table."

Serenity went over to the dinning table and took Tea's car keys from her purse.

"Thank you, and now I will be leaving." Serenity took the keys and walked away without looking at anyone.

Serenity drove to the park and parked on the street right by the sidewalk. When she got out of the car she started walking around the grass. Joey was right, she could have found a better pair of shoes to wear to the park. The pair she had chosen was one of her favorites. They were black open toe shoes, showing off her red toenails. They had a thick ankle band and the heel was around four and a half inches high. They were some of her best shoes and she really didn't know why she wore them.

These are like shoes I would wear on a date. Remember you aren't on a date; you are on social meeting to talk about helping Mai. Just because I'm not on a date doesn't mean these are the wrong shoes to wear. It's always good to show off, right?


Kaiba couldn't believe someone had actually hung up on him. It infuriated him but there was nothing he could do about it. If he didn't show up Serenity would probably call him back and yell at him.

I'm not going. Who cares about her? If I don't show up there's nothing she can do about it!

"Master Kaiba?" Kaiba's maid called to him. His maid was a plump little old lady dressed in a black dress and a white apron Her name was Mary. She quietly walked in the room without him noticing. "You have a meeting in twenty minutes, sir."

A MEETING? I had one yesterday!

FINE! I'll go tothe park. BUT SHE DIDN'T WIN! Kaiba thought to himself

"Tell them I won't be able to make it," he told her very casually. "I have a previous engagement."

"Very well, sir," she said obediently. "I shall cancel for you." With that she left his room.


"Why do you think she wanted to go to the park?" Joey asked Tea.

Tea had now finished her large bowl of ice cream and came back to reality.

"She probably just wanted to look around and see the neighborhood. She loves to walk in parks, too." Tea told him.

"Maybe we should go and see her and hangout with her. It's like eight who knows what creepy guys are hanging around the park." Joey said staring at Tea.

"Well she seemed pretty serious about no one coming with her and no one in the park is going to hurt her, Joey, there are all kinds of families that go there after dinner." Tea said. "Besides you get board really easily and she's just going to be walking through the park, possibly for more than eight minutes." Tea said sarcastically.

"Well if she's going to waste that amount of time I better stay here."

"That a' boy! Want some ice cream?"


I wonder if he'll come. He sounded like he wasn't going to come on the phone.

He'll come. Not everyone's jackass, he'll come. Serenity paced the grassy side of the sidewalk not really wanting to stray from one place.

"Maybe he already came and he's looking for me," she said hopefully to herself.

No, that doesn't sound like Kaiba. If he couldn't see me he'd leave before even looking at all!

Before she thought any more a sleek red sports car turned the corner of the park far too fast. As an unmistakable Seto Kaiba came out of his car Serenity came up to him and began to lecture.

"This is a pubic street! What if a small child ran in front of your car! I'll tell you what would happen! YOU'D KILL THE POOR CHILD AND I WOULD KILL YOU!" Serenity screamed.

Kaiba was a bit astounded, first she hung up on him before he allowed her to and now she was screaming at him just because he was using the horsepower in his car. But he kept his cool.

"Well small children shouldn't be running through the pubic streets at eight o' clock at night and if they are and I happen to hit one it's their own fault," Kaiba responded.

Serenity looked at him as if he had just slapped her. She couldn't believe her ears. She used to think that everyone knew compassion on some level, now she wasn't sure. However she wasn't going to let Kaiba's rude response go unpunished so she slapped him across the face, very hard.

"That's rule number one; don't mess with me," Serenity said very smartly and gingerly and she turned to lead him to the sidewalk.

Kaiba was still trying to recover from the fact that a woman had just struck. He couldn't believe it. He ran after her for an explanation.

"What the hell was that for and why do you mean to tell me 'don't mess with me,'" he nearly screamed at her.

"You are going to help me and I am going to have to help you," Serenity said still looking ahead of her.

"I don't need any help!" Kaiba argued.

"Yes, you do. Just listen to yourself, you sound like a grumpy old man! You're always yelling and apparently you don't understand the value of an innocent child's life. I'm going to help you change that."

"NO! I'm not going to accept help from somebody I never even asked help from!" Kaiba said sternly as he stopped in the middle of the sidewalk.

Serenity walked over to him and got very close to his face (even though she had to stand on her tip toes). She looked at him for a moment with a small grin on her face. After a second or two she slapped him across the face again with the same force.

"That's rule number two; be positive."


I love Serenity; I think she's adorable. I had to give her more parts to be her tell me what you think of her, please?

Remember if you tell me a story you would like me to read, please do cus I always got time to kill on the Internet. (It's sad, I know).
