1Ch 6: Secrets to Find Out. Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh

Amber and Kaiba were sitting very quietly staring off into space. 'Why is she not saying anything. Did I scare her? No she couldn't be scared of me she's always goofing off.' Kaibathought looking at her.

'Why is he starin' at me? Do I have something in my teeth? Or is it...somethin' else. No he doesn't like, me he hates me. But is it all a cover up? Does he really like me?' Amber thought.

They both coughed and looked at each other. Amber spoke up first.

"I'm sorry if I said anythin' dat might hurt you." She said not looking into his eyes.

"It's alright and I'm sorry if I was very cruel to you. I didn't mean it I was the one who was wrong I..." he cut off, and Amber swore she saw tears glistening in his eyes.

"What's wrong Kaiba?" Amber asked curiously.

"Its just that if you knew what happened to him and me you would understand why he's not like me at all." He said wiping his eyes.

"Oh so what happened, if you don mind me askin'," she said

He went into his whole life story when his mother died giving birth to Mokuba, and when his father died the five years that followed. When Gozaburo adopted him and Mokuba, and when the big five trapped him in his own virtual world. Duelist Kingdom and Battle City and when Noah trapped in the virtual world.

Amber was shocked to hear all this. "Oh, my, god," was all she had to say when he finished. She didn't even notice that the arm she was gripping, the arm her uncle hurt this morning, was bleeding. Kaiba looked up and saw her arm bleeding.

"Amber, what's wrong with your arm?" he asked. She looked down and saw her arm bleeding.

"Oh, nothin', I was juss in a fight with a couple of assholes dat's all," she said brushing his question away. She knew what would happen to her if she were to tell him she was abused. She'd be sent away or worse she'd have to live on the street. Her uncle reminded her all the time that she had nowhere to go if she told.

'Every blow... every hit... he tells me dat I can't go anywhere, if I tell.' She thought remembering that morning.

Flashback

Amber had just woke up with a headache. From all the yelling from his poker pals last night. She went gently down stairs not to wake her sedated uncle. She went into the kitchen, grabbed a bagel and went to get her bag. He uncle was blocking the front entrance.

"Trying to get out unnoticed huh, Amber?" he said in a drunken voice.

He tried to hit Amber over the head with the beer bottle but missed terribly because he was wasted, but he spiked her right arm with the bottle and broke the bottle.

"Now remember that you can't tell any one Ambie. You have nowhere to go..." At that moment he fainted. This gave Amber her chance to escape she slid out of the back door, and ran to school.

End Flashback

She took her eyes away from Kaiba who understood that she was lying. He knew that Amber was hiding something from him but he didn't press on the matter. He just stared as she tried to get the glass out of her arm.

"If you want help I could help you." Kaiba said going into his backpack and pulling out a medical kit.

She laughed at him. "You carry a First-Aid kit in your bag?"

"Well, when you live with Mokuba every accident needs a band aid." Kaiba said chucking.

"Dat's the first time I ever hear you laugh."

"Well, unlike what you've heard about me I'm not always a major asshole all the time."

"Yeah your probably right. Maybe your right," then Kaiba wrapped her arm in a large band-aid.

"There you go," said indicating that he was finished.

"Danks," she said nodding her head.

"So you have anymore homework?" Kaiba asked trying to make conversation.

"No, do you?" Amber asked

"No."

"Do you have your deck?"

"No, but I wish I did. Do you?"

"Dat's why I was asking you we could spilt it and you could duel me." Amber said sheepishly.

"You don't know how to duel?" Kaiba asked snickering.
"I do a little, but not a whole lot to get me by."

He started to laugh a lot she started to laugh too. Kaiba tried to stop but accidentally snorted so they laughed even harder. Kaiba fell out of his chair and Amber right after him. They laughed for 20 minutes and finally lost their breath. Amber smiled and Kaiba smiled back.

'My god he's so sexy, that perfect body. Wow!' Amber thought

'My word that is one hot girl and quite literally in both senses.'

Then Ms. Pentroloni and Principal Mackay walked in. They saw the two out of breath shapes and gasped. They thought they were fighting.

"Ms.Adachi! Mr.Kaiba! What are you doing?"

"Nothing," they replied in unison.

She took them to the bathroom and then they went back to the classroom.

"Now if I or either Ms.Pentroloni catch you fighting again we will suspend you. You have two hours left." She leaves.

Kaiba pulled a chair up and motioned for Amber to sit. She sat down and thought Kaiba came closer to her.

'Did Kaiba move toward me?'

Tbc...
