I know I'm a little bit later then usual but I was at my cousin's house 200 km away from my house, I just came back a few hours ago but my brother got the computer first.
Ok time to answer some reviews:
Mey-lu: Well I have two reason, first of all this is Kaiba we are talking about, why would anyone think he had a sister, most people must know she live with them but why would they think about it, after all she appeared out of no where and they are the same age, twins don't really come in a lot of mind. Second, I myself have a brother, we both have blue eyes and brown hair, we look like brother and sister (I can't believe I'm admitting it) and we both have glasses yet no one know we are related unless one of us tell it, even teachers that we share and can clearly see that we have the same last name don't make the link. Also they don't have the same last name anymore. And in case you haven't noticed so far, most think of her as his girlfriend lolll.
Kagome Mokuba: indeed it will, but it's not like I'm going to tell you now, I don't want to ruin the fun.
Seto's girl 2004: Well, want to know the end before everyone else I see. lolll, to put it short the answer is... Like I'll tell lolll
Oh well I think that all, thanks to all my other reviewers.
Chapter seven: Hold your tongue.
Meyli closed the door of the mansion and leaned against it, Kaiba was out so once again she was alone with Mokuba and the kid didn't seemed to had caught her drift by the way she was acting toward him, she didn't wanted anything to do with him.
However, as she walked up to her room something felt wrong, it was way too much silent, no videogame, TV or anything like that, that could only mean one thing, Mokuba wasn't there, not that she cared anyway.

"So you invited her to come with us and she refused?" Mokuba asked.
"Well…yes, she said something about not being in friendship thingy."
"She sure does look like Kaiba on that." Tristan commented
"If you ask me she looks too much like Seto." Mokuba said.
"It's true that you seem to be out more often since she went to your house." Yugi said.
"She have something against me, I'm sure of it." The young Kaiba said.
"She's not the only one to sound like Kaiba now, you're starting to get his paranoia." Joey said with a grin.
"Why don't you talk to Kaiba about it?" Yugi asked.
"Well, I don't wanna get her into trouble, for what I've heard she ran away from home and for some reason that no one want to tell me, he let her stay with us."
"She sure is strange if you ask me." Tea said. "I can't believe she wore the boy's uniform."
That last comment made Mokuba remember about his question that never got answered. "She said this morning that she looked like a prostitute in the girl uniform."
"With her height, I can imagine that." Tea said.
"What's a prostitute?" Mokuba asked. All eyes turned on him. "What? She doesn't want to talk to me and Seto didn't want to tell me."
Tea bent down next to him and whispered something in his ear, the raven haired boy's eyes grew wide with understanding. "Ohhhh, you mean a slut."
Four pairs of shocked eyes looked at him. "What?"

"Hi big brother!"
Kaiba looked up from his work to look at his little brother. "Hey kid." He smiled, it wasn't often that Mokuba came into his office…usually it was because he wanted to ask something, something told Kaiba to try and build up some mental defence against whatever his brother was going to ask.
A few minutes later Kaiba looked up his work with surprise, his brother still haven't asked anything, he was silently watching TV. "Is something the matter Mokuba?"
Mokuba looked at him. "No, why?"
"Usually when you come here it's to ask me something or because you have a problem."
"Can't I come pass some time with my big brother without having a hidden reason?" The little boy asked.
"Of course you can, but you never do. So trying to avoid going back home I guess."
"Maybe, I don't really like being alone with Meyli, I always feel like she hates me."

Later that evening Kaiba entered Meyli's room, yet again without knocking. Meyli looked up from the computer and glared at her brother.
"Didn't you ever learn manner?"
"I guess not, I'm sure even you realised that Mokuba wasn't there didn't you?"
"Of course I did."
"Good because he came to my office because he didn't wanted to be alone with you in the house because he feel like you hate him."
"Ok maybe I do hate him but I didn't do anything."
"I don't care, this is his house and I want him to feel good so I advise you to start acting better, I don't care that you don't like him I just don't want him to know about it."

Meyli looked around her, that was just great, she was lost, she had no idea where her next class was.
"Lost?"
Meyli turned around and saw a girl a girl with short brown hair and blue eyes. "Looks like it."
"Can I see?" Meyli handed Tea her schedule. "I'm in the same class, I can show you."
Even if she usually didn't accept help from people the girl in front of her did seemed nice. And she had helped her when she wanted to know where her brother lived "Ok."
"By the way, I'm Tea." She said as they walked toward the classroom.
"I'm Meyli."
"You're the new girl who dress like boys, you have guts you know."
Meyli wondered if she had to be insulted but the smile on Tea's face told her it wasn't an insult. "I don't especially like dressing like boys, but I don't like dressing like a slut either."
"I guess not, this uniform do suck, the only reason why no one forces you to were the girl's uniform is because you live with Kaiba."
"That must be the only good point to be living there."
"You're only saying that because Kaiba live there also."
"I don't mind him." Meyli decided not to say more, after all that girl was with Mokuba, it wasn't a good idea to insult the kid, and she had to behave or else Kaiba'll send her back in this rat hole.
"If it's not too much to ask, why did he let you in his house, Kaiba never seemed like the kind of guy to give charity."
"I don't mind you asking but I can't tell you. Tell me something, why do you hang out with all those boys?"
"Well I don't hang out with all the boys even if it's true that my best friends are, I was friend with Yugi since kindergarden, I have four older brothers and my mother died when I was three so I never really had any feminine figure around me."
"Oh, sorry about your mom."
"It's ok, I've got over it long ago, I know she wouldn't want me to mop around on her death all my life."
"I guess not." Meyli said, thinking about her own mother.
"What about you, Joey asked you to come with us but you said no, why?"
"Let's just say that guys who came to talk to me always have something behind their mind."
"Well they're guy after all, but Joey and Tristan really are nice guy, especially compared to Kaiba."
"Maybe, but there is no chance that Seto will ever try to look through my cloth."
"Who knows, no one knows what happen in his mind."
"Well that's one thing that never and will never cross it."
"What about you? You're living with Kaiba, don't you have any family?"
"I don't thing I can call that family, my parent died about the same time Seto's did, but unlike him I still had an uncle so I went to live with him."
"I'm sorry to ask but Mokuba said that he heard you ran away, why is that?"
"He said that?" Meyli was doing her best to contain her anger. "Well next time you can tell the little rat to mind his own business."
"Look I didn't meant to make you mad, I'm just curious."
"Well it's none of your business." Meyli snapped before going to sit at the far end of the class under the questioning look of Kaiba.
Meyli turned to glare at Kaiba. "Tell that rat of a brother you have to stop messing with my life."

"Mokuba?"
The little kid looked up from his game. "You're home already?"
"Is that a way to welcome your brother home?" Kaiba joked. Mokuba got up and ran hugging his brother. "Mokuba, I had a little talk with Meyli, where did you heard that she ran away?"
"Why do you want to know?"
"Because you said the to Yugi and his friends, I don't know myself why she ran away and I doubt she wanted people to know about it."
"Well no one ever tells me anything, she came out of no where and now she's staying here and you don't even want to tell me anything about her."
"We already went through this Mokuba."
"No, you decided that I shouldn't know anything, you don't even want to tell me why you don't want me to know."
"And you thought Yugi had the answer?"
"No, but no one told me anything, at least he's as clueless as I am."
"Mokuba listen, right now we are talking about you telling Meyli's life to everyone."
"It wasn't everyone."
"That's not the point, it's her life, you know better then go around and talking about people's personal business. I asked her to be nice to you but the same goes for you."
"Alright I'm sorry."
"I'm not the one you should be apologising to." The elder Kaiba said before walking away.
8888
"Come in." Meyli looked up from her homework to the door where a big mess of black hair entered. Just great. "What do you want?"
"I just wanted to tell you that I'm sorry for telling my friends about you running away."
"It's a little late for that don't you think?"
"Tell me." Meyli looked at him again. "Why do you hate me like that?"
"You want that in alphabetical order? I can't tell you, not that I don't want to."
"Why can't I even be allowed to know why you hate me so much?"
"Your brother would kill me if I tell you."

"Hey Meyli." Meyli looked back from her book to see Tea beside her. "Look I'm sorry for yesterday, I shouldn't have asked about this."
"It's ok I guess, I'm always the first one to mess with other's business." Meyli answered, why should she let Mokuba get in her life again.
"Curious aren't you?"
"You can say that again, I always put my nose where I shouldn't."
"Hey, me and the boys are going to hang out at Yugi's after school, you wanna come?"
"Thanks but no thanks."
"Why is that? I swear they are nice guy, they won't try anything on you."
"It's not that I don't believe you, I just can't stand being anywhere near boys." Tea opened her mouth to speak but Meyli interrupted her. "I don't want to talk about it."
"Fine. But what about Kaiba? Unless there's something about him that I don't know about he is a boy."
Meyli laughed. "Well I never checked personally and I don't intend to but I believe he is a boy, he's just different."

Meyli was putting her books in her locker when a boy slightly taller then her came beside her, something that wasn't pleasing to her.
"Hey there." He said in a voice that let no room to imagination as to what was in his mind. Meyli slightly looked up at him but turned back to her business instantly, he might go away if she did as if he wasn't there. "Hey I'm talking to you."
"Well I'm not." Meyli answered.
"You're the shy type I see, or maybe you just want to be desired." He said leaning closer to her.
"Get lost." She said as she took a step back.
"Oh come on, I know you want me just as much as I want you. Let's go somewhere more private." He said as he put his arm around her waist.
"Let me go." She panicked, she took a step backward as she pushed him end ended up falling behind.
Lucky for her she didn't fall much before someone caught her. "You got a problem here?" Meyli looked up to see the same blond from the other day.
One look at Joey's face was enough to convince the guy that he didn't wanted to mess with him. "No, I was leaving."
As soon as the guy had turned his back on them she got a few feet away from Joey, she wasn't much more comfortable with him in any case. "Thanks." She said before walking the other way.

"I swear this girl his strange. Jake is like the guy every girls want to go out with." There was a hint of jealousy there. "Any girl would have melted in his arm the second he talks to them, safe for Tea who gave him a kick where it hurts."
"Maybe she's like Tea?" Yugi tried.
"I don't think so, she looked afraid of him." Joey said.
One thing that none of them noticed was that Kaiba was passing near them at that time, even if they hadn't mentioned her name he knew who they were talking about. When he sat down in his limo he noticed that Meyli was already there and she didn't looked well at all.
"Are you ok?"
Meyli almost let out a small yell out of her surprise, she hadn't heard him come in, but at the same time she felt safer now that he was there. "I-I'm fine."
"Liar." Kaiba looked in front of him. "So, I heard you met Jake."
"Why do you care?"
"Well I heard from the mutt that you looked like you were afraid of him."
"The mutt?"
"Fine, Wheeler, does that ring a bell?"
"Well 'the mutt' should mind his own business."
"Is it me or do you have a problem about people who are concern about you?"
Meyli let out a small laugh. "No one's concern about me, no one ever did or will."
"If I wasn't concern I would have let you rot on the street."
"Yea right, keep telling you that, you only did it because of conscience."
"Out of conscience, you would be back with your uncle, where you belong."
