Declaimer: I do not own yugioh or any of its characters
Best Friends Forever:
A Shattered Heart
The light streamed in through the large windows in Kaiba's bedroom. He blinked and opened his eyes coming out of his sleep. He felt a warm body pressed against his own, he looked next to him. It was Anzu's sleeping form cuddled into his body.
No, they did not do what your thinking.
She looked so innocent huddled into his chest. Her long slim legs were tangled in his long legs sharing their warmth with each other. Her arms were pressed against his chest and her cheek was pressed against his. They were in sync. Her hair was spread out on the pillow they both had their heads on.
Kaiba slightly picked up his head to look at the stunning beauty sleeping next to him. He realized that the blanket had fallen to the floor. He studied her body from head to toe. She was in another one of his tee shirts that was large for her and her pink underwear slightly peeked out from under the large tee. Kaiba himself was just in boxer shorts.
God she's so beautiful………
Kaiba stroked her wonderfully soft chocolate brown hair. Anzu shifted in her sleep and she made a 'mmmhh' sound as her eyes fluttered open. Her first sight was Kaiba's ice blue eyes staring at her. He leaned in and gave her a good morning kiss.
"And a good morning to you too" Anzu said back as she smiled.
Sitting up she stared up at the ceiling and pulled her bare legs into her chest. Changing her view she looked at Kaiba. He now was standing up and going to his closet to grab some clothes. She tried to remember what had happened after everyone had left from the party.
"Seto"
"hmm?"
"What happened after everyone left from the party?"
Kaiba smirked and looked at Anzu with an amused look.
"We did it twenty times last night" Anzu's mouth fell open.
"W-what?"
"No silly, you fell asleep on the sofa so I put my tee shirt on you and put you to bed."
Anzu's expression fell slightly.
"Oh"
"Were you hoping we had done it Anzu?"
Anzu's face reddened up.
"I-uh-I-" Kaiba dropped the clothes he had taken from his closet and got on the bed moving towards Anzu.
"Cause if you wanted we could do it now…" He moved over Anzu slowly with an evil smile on his face.
Anzu jumped off of the bed and ran into the bathroom.
"I have better things to do!" She said with her face all red as she slammed the bathroom door.
Kaiba actually laughed out loud and grabbed his clothes and went to the other bathroom down the hall laughing all the way.
Mokuba was at Yugi's house with the rest of the gang waking up from their sleeping over.
Last night had been dramatic. Yugi had cried about how much he loved Anzu and everyone ended up getting involved, except Mokuba.
He had seen first hand Anzu and his brother making out in the closet. How could Yugi love Anzu when Seto loved her?
Everyone gave encouraging words to Yugi that he should tell Anzu how much he loves her and she'll return his love. Mai tried to keep quite about the Anzu returning his love, she knew as well as Mokuba did that she and Kaiba had something going on.
Anzu walked into the kitchen following the smell of wonderful European coffee. She stepped into the kitchen and saw Kaiba sipping a mug of coffee sitting at the cherry wood oak breakfast table. He wore a black tee shirt and a pair of black slacks. It was unusual for him to dress without his trench coat that had his Kaiba Corp logo on it.
Anzu sat down across from him at the round table and Kaiba pushed another mug towards her that was filled with black coffee, both of their favorites.
"Its your fault I'm hooked on black coffee." Anzu stated as she began to take large gulps of the coffee hoping it would wake her up.
"I wasn't the one who needed help studying for a certain final at the end of tenth grade."
Anzu rolled her eyes. She remembered at the end of tenth grade, the year they had become friends, Anzu had been studying over at his house trying to prepare for the finials, which were the next day.
It was around 1 AM and they were both still studying Algebra 2. Anzu was completely confused and her eyeslids kept closing everytime she tried to look at her textbook. Kaiba was drinking dark coffee and was wide awake studying away. Anzu asked him for help and Kaiba ended up pouring three whole mugs of coffee down her throat to keep her awake so she could understand the basics of factoring. They had both studied all night long and ended up passing with A's, but after that Anzu kept craving for black coffee.
Anzu began thinking about what good friends they were, or are? She shook her head, what were they exactly? Something in the middle?
Kaiba stood up and began to walk to the door of the mansion.
"Where are you going?" Anzu asked as she followed him.
"Lets pick up Mokuba from that brat's house" Anzu pinched Kaiba's arm. That's what he got for calling her friend's brats.
There was a knock at the door, Yugi ran downstairs to get it. When opening it he saw Kaiba and Anzu at the door. Kaiba's face was businesslike and stern while Anzu smiled at Yugi. Yugi blushed slightly at seeing Anzu. She was wearing a skirt that went a little above her knees and wore a pink tee shirt that was covered by a blue-white jacket that had the Kaiba Corp logo on it.
Yugi's mind was on the jacket Anzu's was wearing that had the Kaiba Crop logo on it. It fit her perfectly, the arms were perfect and the length was too. Where did Anzu get that jacket from? He had never seen Kaiba wear one like it before, he usually wore Kaiba Corp trench coats.
He decided to ask Anzu about it later and invited them inside. As they went upstairs to the living room Yugi failed to notice that Anzu was secretly holding Kaiba's hand and they were both smiling to each other.
The three of them approached the living room and Anzu let go of Kaiba's hand and looked around. It had been completely trashed, there was food all over the ground along with blankets and pillows. Joey, Mokuba, Tristan, and Mai were on the sofa's watching a movie on TV.
"Come on Mokuba lets go." Kaiba said gruffly. Mokuba looked away from the TV screen and looked at his big brother.
"No! Its about to end, ten minutes please!" Kaiba scowled he wanted to go over to Mokuba and drag him out of Yugi's house. Anzu gave a little tug on his arm as though saying to wait ten minutes so Mokuba could finish whatever he was watching.
Kaiba didn't feel in place at Yugi's house, it was as though he was on enemy territory. He looked around the place. There was a hallway next to the living room, probably leading to bedrooms, and next to the living room was the dining room and there was little area for the kitchen. In the place the most private area's would be the bedrooms or the kitchen because those were the rooms furthest away from Mokuba and the rest of them.
"Would you guys like some hot coco?" Yugi innocently asked with his big eyes cute and hopeful.
"No" Kaiba coldly responded.
Anzu gave Kaiba a little glare. He was always way to mean to Yugi, she could understand slightly the negative attitude he gave to Joey, but out of all people Yugi did not deserve it. "I'd love some Yugi" Anzu responded.
Anzu followed Yugi into the kitchen where there was a large kettle full of hot coco. Yugi took a mug and poured out a glass of the liquid. The smell intoxicated Anzu as she smelled the liquid being poured into the mug. Yugi handed her the mug and smiled warmly. Maybe this was his chance to tell her how much he loved her!
"So…" Anzu said as she took a sip of the sweet liquid.
Yugi looked at Anzu and looked at her jacket again.
"Hey Anzu where'd you get that jacket? That's the Kaiba Corp logo right?"
Yugi pointed to her jacket.
"Oh this jacket? Seto had it custom made for me last year when I couldn't find a jacket to buy in the spring." Anzu explained plainly. Last spring the jacket she wanted was sold out and they had discontinued the brand so Seto had gotten the same company to custom make her the jacket she wanted and she had asked for the Kaiba Corp logo to be put on it, just for fun.
Yugi's face slightly fell, Kaiba was always in Anzu's life somehow. Maybe it was his fault Anzu was with him all the time, after all Kaiba probably paid more attention to her than he did. When he was with her, he was usually with Joey and Tristan and she was just there as a side person.
Yugi brought his courage up to the max, he gently took the mug of coco from Anzu's hands and placed them on the counter. He took her soft hands in his own, he looked into her wonderful ocean colored eyes. He stood up straight trying to bring his height up as much as he could. Unfortunately, his head only came up to her nose, making him still short.
"What is it Yugi?" Anzu asked. She was completely confused at this moment.
"Anzu…"
Joey, Mai, Tristan, and Mokuba hid behind the counter watching what was going on. They knew Yugi was going to admit his love for Anzu there and than. Kaiba stood with his back near the wall watching what was going on between Anzu and Yugi. This was going to get interesting.
Mokuba and Mai knew disaster was near for poor little Yugi, Anzu was in love with someone else.
Joey and Tristan were feeling very proud of their short little friend having the guts to go up to Anzu and admit his feelings. They thought Anzu and Yugi made a great couple, they had no doubts that Anzu would accept his feelings.
Kaiba had no idea what was going on, the only thing he knew was when Yugi took Anzu to the kitchen everyone ran to see what was happening. He thought he might as well see what was going on because Anzu was involved.
"Yes Yugi?" Anzu asked. Yugi's eyes were fixed on her eyes, it was odd to her, he had never acted like this before.
"Anzu…I-I love you" Yugi finally said with his cheeks flushed.
Anzu almost lost her balance for a second. Yugi loved her? But, she loved Seto! Her and Seto had just started something special between one another.
"Anzu…I've loved you since we were little. My love for you has always burned brighter than the sun." Yugi continued with his eyes burning into hers.
Kaiba's ears almost exploded as he heard Yugi say that he loved Anzu. Anzu was his now! How dare that brat even think of loving her! Anzu was 100 his! He almost felt like running over to Yugi and strangling him.
Mokuba and Mai bit their bottom lip wondering what Anzu would say back to him.
Joey and Tristan gave silent cheers to their best friend for his wonderful guts admitting his deepest feelings towards Anzu.
"Now that I've told you how I feel…" Yugi said as he squeezed Anzu's hands.
"I-I'm flattered Yugi. But I-I don't love you like the way you love me Yugi. I'm sorry." Anzu pulled her handed away from his. Yugi looked shocked for a second, than disappointment showed on his face. Slowly tears began to well up in his eyes.
"Can you ever love me the way I love you Anzu?" Yugi whispered through tears. Anzu looked to the tiled floor.
"I'm sorry"
Anger ran through Yugi for a second. Why couldn't Anzu love him the way he loved her? They had been friends for so long, why couldn't she return his feelings back? Why?
"Why not Anzu! Why can't you love me!" Yugi yelled at Anzu as large tears poured down his cheeks.
Anzu couldn't bare seeing her friend looking like this. She tried hugging Yugi, but he pushed her away. What was she suppose to say?
Joey and Tristan had their mouths open. How could Anzu reject his feelings? Why? Why?
Mai and Mokuba looked at each other with worried looks on their faces. This was turning out really bad. Yugi was getting hurt and Anzu couldn't help him.
Kaiba stepped forward. "She can't love you because she's mine." Kaiba crossed his arms over his chest.
Everyone's eyes shot to look at Kaiba. Tristan and Joey still had their mouth's open and Yugi's tear stained face stared at Kaiba.
"Wha' was that Kaiba?" Joey practically yelled as he stood to his feet.
"You heard me." Kaiba coldly responded.
"Is this true Anzu?" Tristan asked.
Anzu looked to the ground. Joey, Tristan, and Yugi got their answer to Kaiba's remark. Yugi ran out of the kitchen and into his bedroom and slammed his door.
"Anzu I never thought you'd steep so low as to…" Joey said as he walked out of the kitchen followed by Tristan and disappeared into the hallway.
Kaiba, Anzu, Mai, and Mokuba were left alone in the kitchen in silence. Mai finally broke the silence.
"Well I'll see you kids later, I have to get going." Mai said as she left, leaving the rest of them in silence.
"Come on, we'd better get going too." Mokuba said.
Anzu stared at the floor in silence and nodded. She had hurt her friend so badly, she had never wanted that for him. Now her friends were mad at her, because of her and Kaiba.
"Lets go Anzu." Kaiba said as he gently took her hand and they walked out of Yugi's house.
Anzu took one last look at Yugi's home, knowing she wouldn't be back for a long time.
Poor Yugi! Review!
