Best Friends Forever:
Friends Again?
Christmas was only a mere two weeks away the cold winds of winter had intensified. It had been only a week since the blizzard had come and quickly gone. The snow outside were the remains of the fierce blizzard that had hit causing Domino to loose their power supply. Luckily, the power had come back on the next morning and the city had cleaned up the roads so cars could drive again. The blizzard had turned into a little fizzle by evening and had completely stopped by night.
Now, Anzu stood at the Kaiba mansion door and rang the bell. The door opened with a click and Mokuba smiled to greet her.
"Anzu! You're here! Finally!" It was quarter to seven and Mokuba had been waiting since morning for Anzu to come. She had promised him to make him and his brother dinner, even though they already had a chef. The chef made fancy gourmet food that the brothers ate every day again and again. Anzu thought maybe it was time they had a real meal for once. A nice yummy filling home kind of meal.
Mokuba led her to the living room where he had set up his favorite game to play with Anzu, Capsule Monsters.
"Play with me Anzu!" The young boy yelled for joy as he pulled Anzu's hand towards the game. Anzu smiled and nodded. They both sat on the floor and played around, laughing and yelling for joy. Finally Anzu noticed someone very important to her was missing.
"Where's Seto?" Mokuba's face turned slightly sad as he looked at the flight of stairs in the next room.
"He's doing some work for Kaiba Corp, he's been in his room all week long." Mokuba said sadly. Anzu could see clearly that Kaiba was caught up in his work and obviously didn't give any time to play with his younger brother.
"Well lets go get him out of there!" Anzu exclaimed brightly, trying to raise the hopes of the young boy. As they walked to the stairs there was a ring at the door bell. Anzu walked to the door and looked through the peephole.
There was spiky tri colored hair in her view. Yugi! She opened the door to see Yugi standing in front of her.
"W-what brings you here Yugi?" She asked slightly nervous. The last time they had spoken was when he had admitted his feeling for her and she had turned him down.
The boy put on a shy expression and looked to the ground.
"I'm sorry for being a jerk, Anzu. I shouldn't have gotten upset at you when I found out about you and Kaiba……I'm sorry Anzu….can you forgive me?" Anzu looked at Yugi, she felt a pang in her chest as she looked at him.
"Oh Yugi, of course I can forgive you!" Anzu said as she wrapped her arms around the him and gave him a tight hug. Oh, how long had she been waiting for him to say those precious words to her. She was filled with joy as she found her friend come back to her. Outside of the door Mai, Joey, and Tristan popped in at looked at Anzu.
"I'mz sorry Anzu" Joey said as he came in and hugged her.
"Yea Anzu, I'm sorry too" Tristan said as he hugged her and Joey.
"Hey hon, how about some love?" Mai said as she joined in on the group hug.
"So I guess this means were all friends again, right?" Anzu said sheepishly as she grinned.
'If only we were more' Yugi thought to himself.
Kaiba walked out of his bedroom and stretched his arms. That was the most work he had done in a long time, he had pulled three all nighters. He came to the railing and looked at the scene in front of him. Anzu, Yugi, Joey, Tristan, and Mai were all in a group hug. Kaiba felt slight jealousy pang through his chest. Why was she hugging Yugi? And that mutt? And the two others? What had happened to Yugi and 'I'm in love with you Anzu?' He knew he shouldn't feel this way, but he did and at that exact moment he wanted to grab Anzu and tell everyone she was his and no one else's.
He didn't want to admit it, but when Anzu's friend's were mad at her was the time he had spent the most time with her. He did not want to share her with anyone.
Mokuba ran up to him and pointed to Anzu and her friends.
"Isn't it great? Anzu's friends with everyone again! Lets go join the group!" Mokuba said excitedly.
Kaiba's face remained unemotional and he walked back to his room and slammed the door.
After the group hug, Anzu told them how happy she was to be their friend again and told them she had sometime important to do. She waved goodbye to them and they left. Yes, maybe it was rude that she had just slammed the door in their face, but she really wanted to make dinner for the two brothers, Kaiba especially.
It was eight o' clock, perfect. She would make her famous, spaghetti with meatballs, grilled hamburgers, and chicken salad. For desert, she would make a chocolate ice cream cake with some chocolate covered strawberries. It sounds like a lot, but for their appetites it was fine, especially since it was Friday night.
Around nine she had finished all her dishes and deserts and placed them covered on the dining room table. She called Mokuba and gave him his food and he began to dig into all the different dishes.
Anzu went upstairs to Kaiba's room and knocked on his door.
"Seto? Seto come on, I made dinner!" Anzu said as she knocked on the door. On the other side of the door a very grumpy Seto Kaiba sat at his desk typing away at his laptop.
To him it seemed like her friends had just come back to her and she had forgotten all about who Seto Kaiba was. He had just been a temporary person until her friends had come back to her.
Lying he said, "Whatever Mazaki, I'll be downstairs in awhile." The truth was he didn't plan to come out and eat her food after what he had realized.
Anzu sadly went downstairs and sat at the dining room table looking at Mokuba wiping his face with his hand.
"Man Anzu that was the best meal I've ever ate! The dessert was great too! You have to cook for us more often!"
Anzu gave a sad smile and looked at her legs trying to kill time until Seto came. Mokuba looked at her confused.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
Shaking her head she said, "I want to eat with your brother Mokuba"
Shrugging his shoulders he thanked her again and went to the living room.
It was around one a.m. in the morning and Mokuba was still playing his favorite video game. Every hour he told himself he was going to stop, but he kept getting further and further in the game. Kaiba had finally come downstairs to get some coffee to keep himself awake and stared at his younger brother.
"Shouldn't you be in bed?" He said sternly.
"I'm going, I'm going!"
"Good" Kaiba said.
"Big Bro"
"What"
"Why didn't you come downstairs to eat with Anzu?" Mokuba said as he shut off his game.
"Because I didn't feel like it" He said simply.
"I bet she isn't enjoying still waiting for you. In fact she forced everyone to go so she could eat dinner with you." Mokuba said sharply as he pointed towards the dining room and walked upstairs.
Surprised by his younger brother's comment he went into the dinning room. The lights had been dimmed and there was Anzu, head on the table in her arms. Her face was tear stained from crying.
Unknown to him, while he was at his computer updating the Kaiba Corp website she had thought he had forgotten about her and cried, which he had obviously did. He had expected her to have left after calling him to dinner. He had thought she had left with her friends, but she had pushed her friends away just for him.
He scanned over the food she had cooked, spaghetti with meatballs, grilled hamburgers, chicken salad, chocolate ice cream cake, and chocolate covered strawberries. The cake had melted, and the food was dirt cold. She had worked hard so she could eat with him and he had ignored her.
He touched her wet cheek, and looked at her sad face, it was his fault. Why had he been so stupid? Anzu cared for him more than anyone else in the world, and he had doubted her. He brushed a strand of hair out of her face and she stirred in her sleep. Slowly her eyes opened and she picked her head off the table. She looked at him and smiled.
"You came" She whispered softly as she hugged him around his waist from her sitting position.
"How can you be so…forgiving after what I did?" He said referring to her hard work in the meal and him ruining a special night with her.
Tiredly rubbing her eyes she smiled and pointed to the chair next to her, "Lets eat"
Sitting down, he took some spaghetti and put it in his plate. Anzu put some sauce and meatballs in his plate with all the other main courses and made a plate for herself and stood up.
"Where are you going?" Kaiba asked confused.
"I'm warming up our plates in the microwave silly"
A very tired Seto Kaiba watched a very tired Anzu walk into the kitchen with their plates knowing how much he meant to her.
Okay so maybe its not as dramatic as you may have thought! Just forget I said anything about drama and you'll see when its drama and just humor! Enjoy! And REVIEW! Dudes REVIEW! LoL
