[Chapter One]

~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tea shot up in her bed clucking her chest as her heart continued to beat heavily.

She looked around noticing she was again in her bedroom, in her bed where she had fallen asleep.

She groaned and laid back down, her heart still beating hard in her chest.

"Dam," she whispered, it had been that dream again, that wonderful and delicious dream.

Really, it wasn't the dream that took her breath away, more like the man that was involved in it. Every night for the past few weeks he had come to her, holding her close to his strong and powerful body, kissing and caressing her neck and whispering softy in her ear.

Tea shivered, just thinking about him made her tremble with pleasure. How was it that a simply dream could affect her so much?

At the beginning, when the dreams had first started she had been afraid but as of late she had been finding herself praying for the day to be over just so she could finally meet up with her dream man again. Never in her life had she dreamed about someone the way she dreamed about him. Sure there were the usual dreams about a resent crush but they would always pass. Never had she had dreams like this. Dreams where he touched her, kissed her and made her feel so wonderful, so safe.

Tea smiled at she thought about him. Lord how she wished he was real! But she would just have to settle for him in her dreams.

Tea frowned slowly as she thought about the dream last night. It had been different then the last ones. Never had her dream man let her see his face nor had he ever bite her.

She looked over at her clock, 6:30. She sighed, slowly she sat up and rubbed her eyes, she would think about the dream later, right know she had to get ready for school.

"Tea"

Tea, suddenly wide awake, wiped her head around looking for the person who owned the voice she had come to know so well.

Seeing no one, she slowly moaned and rubbed her forehead.

"God these dreams are really getting to me," she mumbled as she slowly got out of bed and made her way towards the bathroom for a long and relaxing shower.

Little did she know that a pair of deep blue eyes watched her closely through her window from where a man was crouching on a tree branch. He smirked as he watched her get up and leave her room. "Soon Tea my Queen, very soon," he whispered and in a blink of an eye he was gone.

~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tea stretched her arms over her head, working out the kinks in her arms as she made her way to school. She pulled her jacket closer to her body when a winter breeze smashed against her face.

"I hate winter," she mumbled as she walked slowly down the street. Gradually her mind wondered back to her dream. Why had he bitten her?

"I wonder what it means," she wondered aloud.

"Wonder what, what means Tea?" said a voice behind her.

Tea wiped around to see Yami standing behind her, his usual emotionless stare plastered on his face his eyes twinkling with amusement.

"Oh hi Yami," Tea chirped happily as they started walking together, "I didn't hear come up." She smiled at him.

Yami nodded in understanding, "You seemed to be distracted when I saw you," he said then added, "You wonder what, what means," curious to know as to what it was that had consumed Tea's thoughts lately.

She looked at him and slowly blushed, "Oh nothing really," she answer, "just a dream I've been having lately."

Her blush did not go unnoticed by Yami as he watched her. He rose a questioning eyebrow "What kind of dream?" he asked his curiosity growing.

Tea's blush only grew. "I can't tell Yami about the dreams I'm having!" she thought, "what would he think?"

"Tea?" he asked

"Oh well you see, my dream, it involves a man," she whispered knowing her face was probably glowing like a light bulb.

"A man?" he said slowly, a small amount of anger dripping off the last word.

Tea turned her head in surprise only to catch a glimpse of what looked like jealousy burning in his violet eyes.

Her eyes widened. Was Yami jealousy?

But just as fast as it came it was gone and his eyes were back to their normal emotionless stare. She shook her head she must have been seeing thing. Why would Yami be jealous? It wasn't like they were going out and even the idea of then going out was utterly ridiculous. Yami was one of her best friends and nothing more.

"Tea?"

"Oh sorry Yami" said sheepishly, "I guess I got caught up in my thoughts again."

He only smiled at her, "That's ok it happens to us all," he said. "So about your dream, what exactly happens in it?" he asked slowly.

Tea sifted her backpack uncomfortable. She had really hoped he would just drop it but it seemed he had no intention to do so.

"Well you see" she started

"Tea, Yami!"

They both looked up to see Joey, Tristan and Serenity waiting for them at the entrance of Domino High.

"Hey guys!" Tea cried out as she ran up to meet them glade that she was able to finally get away from Yami.

Yami on the other hand was not happy about the distraction. He made a note to ask her about it later as he walked towards his friends.

~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tea sighed as she looked out the window of her English classroom. Lord how she wished the day would just hurry up and end already! It was the Friday before the beginning of winter vacation and it seemed as though the school day was never going to end.

Tea sighed again giving one last longing look out the window before turning back to her textbook.

Not even five minutes later, Tea felt someone lightly tap her on the shoulder. She turned to see Mai looking at her with an amused smile on her face.

"So Hun, are you going to Josh's party tonight?" she said leaning backing her chair. Tea shrugged her shoulder, "I hadn't really planed on it,"

It was only partly true. Really, she didn't want to go to the party and meet up with Yami. She new he wanted to ask her more about her dreams and she couldn't avoid him or his questions for much longer. Besides she would much rather spend time with her dream boy.

Mai frowned, "Come on Tea, the rest of the gang is going and besides you have been so distracted lately. You should go and have some fun! Take your mind off what's bothering you."

"I don't really want to take my mind off of what's bothering me," Tea thought blushing.

Mai smiled, "Come on Hun we can go shopping for dresses for the party after school. You, me and Serenity. What do you say?"

Tea rubbed her neck slowly. "I don't know Mai I," Tea stopped abruptly as her hand froze.

"Tea?" Mai asked her eyes filling with concern, "Tea are you alright?"

Tea wasn't listening. Her eyes only widened as her face paled taking on a ghostly shade of white.

"Miss. Gardner are you all right?" the teacher called out.

Tea nodded her head slowly before adding, "May I please be excused to us the bathroom?"

"Certainly Miss. Gardner but are you sure you're alright?"

She again nodded her head as she made her way out of the room.

As soon as the door was closed, Tea ran at full speed to the girl's washroom. She dashed over to the mirror and lifted her hair up.

There on her neck were two small puncture marks, barely noticeable, right were dream boy had bitten her last night.
