Runaway Chapter 20: Dry ice, a yu-gi-oh fanfic

Runaway by Le Petit Chaperon Rouge

Thanks for all the wonderful reviews. This chapter is quite short and quite crappy. My Grandma passed away yesterday, so it'll take a while before I'll update again. I had this chapter written before that, but I didn't really improve it or something. Once again thanks so much for all those reviews, you guys have no idea how much they mean to me.

Chapter 20. Dry ice

Late last night I had a dream
And she was in it again
She and I were in the sky
Flying hand in hand
I woke up in a cold sweat
Wishing she was by my side
Praying that she'll dry tears
Left on my face I've cried

Oh I love her
Keep dreaming of her
Will I understand
If she wants to be my friend

I'll send a letter to that girl
Asking her to by my own
But my pen is writing wrong
So I'll say it in a song
Oh I love you more right now
More than I've ever loved before
Here's those words straight from these lips
I'll need you forever more.

Oh I love her
Keep dreaming of her
Will I understand
If she wants to be my friend

Come ease the pain that's in my heart...
Come ease the pain that's in my heart...
Come ease the pain that's in my heart...

Oh I love her
Keep dreaming of her
Will I understand
If she wants to be my friend

Come ease the pain that's in my heart...
Come ease the pain that's in my heart...
Come ease the pain that's in my heart...
Come ease the pain that's in my heart...

Green Day – Dry ice

"So tell me…" Michiko whispered. "What happened last night"

"What are you talking about?" Serenity said innocently. Michiko released a small sigh.

"Don't think I didn't notice that you didn't sleep here last night" She said with a devious smile on her face. Serenity gulped.

"I passed out" she answered trying to dismiss the topic. But Michiko didn't give up.

"So you slept on the floor?"

"No! I -… "

"Sshht! Be quiet you two!" Aneko hissed. "We have a lot to do tomorrow, so sleep!" they both obeyed and went to sleep. But Serenity knew Michiko was going to try to get to the bottom of this. No matter what.

A cheap hotel, cheap food, paradise. Yes, paradise. Mai and Joey were in Tokyo for a week and they were having the time of their live.

Mai was in bed, somewhere between sleeping and waking up. Joey had already gotten up, Mai could hear him looking through a magazine.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT?"

Mai was wide awake now, and Joey came bursting thought the door holding the magazine.

"What is it?" Mai asked worriedly. Joey didn't say a thing, he just showed her a big advertising in the magazine. A first Mai didn't notice anything in particular, it was a KaibaCorp commercial. She looked again. A bunch of girls….the IDD.. yeah, Mai had heard but that. She looked at the girls, then she practically screamed too. One of them was Serenity!

"She'd better have a really good explanation for this" Joey said fuming.

Serenity did her best to avoid Michiko, which wasn't hard since they all constantly got something to do. Constantly they had to run around to help their guests with their needs. They were like their personal maids.

It was late in the afternoon, Mr. Doyle and his managers had asked if they could have a private conversation so they could discuss the offer Kaiba had made them. Kaiba himself sat in his study now, behind a low table typing on his laptop. Serenity came in to serve Kaiba the tea he requested. He didn't even seem to notice her, but her heart was racing like a high speed train. Trying not to tremble, she kneeled down opposite of him and poured the steaming tea into a cup. Serenity wanted to get up and leave, but Kaiba stopped her.

"Why don't you join me for tea?" he asked. Serenity was dumbstruck. Hesitantly she sat back opposite of Kaiba. He closed his laptop and took a sip of his tea. His blue eyes never lost sight of Serenity. She just sat there, plucking the sleeve of her kimono. The silence between then went on and on and neither of them took the effort to break it, although Serenity was feeling more awkward with the moment.

"I think I hear somebody calling" Serenity said suddenly getting up. Kaiba raised an eyebrow, up until now, the room had been so quiet that if somebody would have called for Serenity, he would have heard it for sure. Just before she could reach the door, Kaiba grabbed her wrist, and pushed her against the wall.

"You're not going anywhere" he said in a low voice. Serenity gulped.

"B---but…" she stuttered.

"Sssssh" Kaiba said and he gently pushed his lips against hers. Instinctively Serenity kissed him back. Serenity felt Kaiba's hand on her high tight and his other in her neck, pushing her closer. A bit clumsily Serenity put her small hands on his broad shoulders, gently grasping the fabric of this shirt. The next moment they were both on the floor, Kaiba on top of Serenity. Her hands ran through his hair as he kissed her neck, leaving red marks all over her skin.

Gently he squeezed her tight which made Serenity moan from pleasure. Heavily blushing due her own actions she felt Kaiba's lips curl into a smile. He looked at her with his deep blue eyes. Serenity felt like she was drowning in those bottomless wells of blue ice.

Kaiba was about to kiss her again, when his cell started ringing. Growling angrily he shot up and picked up his cell that was on the table. Serenity looked at him confused, as he was dealing with the person who was on the phone. Serenity helped herself up and straitened her kimono, making herself ready to leave. when Kaiba had his back turned to Serenity and he was practically yelling into his phone, Serenity slipped out of this office. She hurried down the hall into her room that she shared with the other girls. Nobody was there yet. Serenity sighed and dropped herself on her futon.

Since when did she rush into things like this? The few boyfriends she had were boys she had known for ages and were good friends of her. This just wasn't like her. but did she regret what happened between her and Kaiba? No. most defiantly not. She just wished she knew how he thought about her, whether he saw her just as another fling. Serenity sighed.

Kaiba was done telephoning and he threw his phone carelessly on the table. He had heard Serenity leave a little while ago. He sighed. She probably was afraid of him or something, but there was just something about her that made him lose control. He wanted to be with her, but how could he tell her? would she laugh at him if he told her? would she run away? Kaiba leaned against the window while looking out. Why were some things so hard?
