Disclaimer: I have no real say in the lives of the Yu-Gi-Oh Characters. However I do have this to say:

I meant to write, but I met this person and I started going out more and don't worry cause that's all over, biggest mistake of my life and anyways... maybe this is a good chapter and was worth the wait... hmm? Hmm? Anyways without any further ado... I present the latest chapter. Here you go! I'm sorry! (Bows on floor and slitters away)

She awoke to the soft touch of lips pressing against her exposed skin. Eyes opened slowly revealing diamond blue eyes, sparkling with the sunlight that filtered its way through the barely parted blinds. She could see the white and the blue, forgotten where she had slept last night. It had been Seto's bed she had shared. Nothing, of course, had happened between them. She had just been wrapped up in his arms until the two of them had drifted off into a nice warm, comfortable sleep. Now she could feel his soft, slightly wet lips pressing against her neck, so soft and so tingling. She began to sit up but he pushed her gently back. She turned her head and he came up from kissing her shoulder and stared at her, his fingers brushing her russet locks aside. She smiled at him and he rested his hand against the side of her face, her lips pressing gently against his palm. "Morning." He said softly to her and she smiled, her eyes closing briefly, she snuggled further into the blankets, one of his arms draped around her waist.

"Morning." She repeated softly, having difficulty finding her voice as his deep blue eyes were locked on her, this content look on his face. He leaned in close to her face, eyes closing. He pressed his mouth right up against hers, his hand that was resting on her back came to the back of her head and he shifted her completely on her back. She inhaled deeply as their lips connected again and again. She moaned as his hand came down and his fingers grazed her stomach. Her back arched and she moved her legs until one was wrapped around his leg. She lifted herself up and both arms clung around the back of his neck. The kiss deepened and she sighed as he trailed the hot kiss down to her shoulder. He pushed down the thin strap of her tank top and kissed her shoulder twice. She whimpered from the intense feel and cupped his face, making him look at her, she drew him close and kissed him passionately. He pulled her close. The sexual feelings were growing and neither of them were slowing it down. He grabbed the hem of her top and began to shove it up, he got it over her head before their torso pressed together, his lips against her nape as she held him close, her fingers pushed down at the elastic of his boxers. This would be some morning. She gasped suddenly.


Yami sat up in bed. He shook his head. This was ridiculous. How was he supposed to let her go? He looked around, his breathing heavy, remembering what he had seen. Téa had been hugging Seto Kaiba, a distant, cold-hearted bastard, who was concerned with only three things: Mokuba, himself and Kaiba Corps. He pushed the blankets off him and he pulled his leather pants on and then the jacket he always wore and headed downstairs. He rubbed his temple with his fingertips and looked up, seeing Zahra. He frowned and walked over to her, embracing her and catching her off guard completely. "Yami… are you all right?"

"She doesn't love me. I've lost."

"Don't talk like that." She paused a second, pushing him back so that she could look at him. "What happened?" she said cupping his face. "Will you tell me?"

"Can we get out of here, Zahra?"

"Sure, let's go get breakfast or something, hmm?"

"That'd be good." He took her hand in his and they walked out of the Turtle Shop. "Can we walk and find a place."

"Yes, of course." The walk was spent in silence, he had only held onto her hand for a little while. They were both hopelessly in love with people who could never love them the way they wanted them to love. Téa would never give her love back to Yami, whom she had loved for as long as she possibly could and Yami would never love Zahra that way. They finally found a small coffee shop; they ordered some coffee and a muffin. Zahra watched him sip his coffee quietly and saying nothing, she coaxed him to tell her something.

"I went to go look for her, I called her cell and she told me to stay away, I guess I should have listened to Téa." He pressed his hands against the hot cup and closed his eyes. "I saw her with Seto Kaiba, I think—I think they're in love."

"Yami—are you positive, maybe they were just talking or something."

"No! No, she was caught up in his embrace he looked so… never in my life have I seen this look on his face. It was strange he looked like he was the happiest man on earth. I've never seen Seto Kaiba smile like that. She was holding him so close; there is defiantly something between the two. I have no doubts." Her heart went out to him, she was sure he now knew how she felt. She bent her head, golden locks falling over her face. "Zahra?" she looked over at him, eyes closed with a tear slipping down the dark complexion of her cheek. "I've been inconsiderate to your feelings. The way I feel right now must be the same feelings you're having." She shook her head.

"No. This isn't about me, it's about you and you're going to deal with this loss. You see for me… just being with you is enough, I don't need anymore." He smiled at her.


She brushed his stray damp hair from his face tucking the brown locks behind his ear and he smiled down at her. "That was really—" she breathed heavily, her chest rising and falling, the blue blankets wrapped tightly around her as he hovered above her. She pressed her fingertip firmly against his firm chest, smiling up at him. He raised his eyebrows briefly, waiting for her to finish whatever it was she had begun to say. Téa looked up so that their eyes were locked, her hands came up, caressing his face, sliding her hands to the back of his neck, her fingers locking together. "Perfect."

"That's what I wanted… I wanted this to be perfect." He told her softly, he looked at his hand as he pressed against her blanket-clad stomach. She brought herself up a little and pressed her lips against his in a tender and loving kiss. So that was what she had been missing out for such a long time. She fell back against the pillows and closed her eyes, still panting from the morning workout. He came down and buried his face in her neck, inhaling her lilac smell. He pressed his lips against her neck, feeling her racing heartbeat from underneath her skin. They both let out an annoyed sigh when his cell phone went off. Seto moved off her and grabbed the phone. "What is it?" he snapped and sat up. Téa rolled on to the other side and bent over the edge of the bed and grabbed her tank. "No! Don't do anything until I get there." He warned. "I'll be right over." He ended the call and grabbed his boxers and pulled them on and went over to the closet. Téa pulled her tank on and then her underwear. She pushed the covers off her body then grabbed the shorts from at the foot of the bed. She pulled them on and Seto walked over to her and pulled her into his embrace. "Sorry about that."

"Seto Kaiba? Apologizing."

"I've only apologized to three people in my life, so you better not complain." He kissed her firmly, his mouth moving up and down slowly, trying to get as close to her as he could without doing the same thing twice. His fingers pushed through her dark locks and he finally stopped kissing her, his nose pressing against hers. He slipped out of her hold and made his way to the bathroom. She heard the water cascade from the showerhead. She heard the shower curtain pull back and then close again. She opened his door and slipped out, shutting the door behind her. She made her way up the stairs and into her own room. She needed a shower to. Pulling the door opened to her room she kicked the door shut again and pulled her tank off and slipped her shorts off, making her way into the bathroom. Moments later she was laying in a tub full of water, covered in bubbles. She closed her eyes and leaned her head back. Her cell phone, resting on the table next to the tub, suddenly went off. Her blue eyes flew open and she answered her cell.

"Hello? Oh, hi Yugi…" she chewed the inside of her cheek. "Uh… yeah. I didn't forget." She said with a small smile. She had forgotten, well, who could blame her, Seto did seem to find a way to make her forget everything but him and her name. She smiled again and nodded. "I'll be right over." She said, ending the call. She looked at her phone clock. "It's twelve-thirty already?" She grabbed the towel and stood up, wrapping the soft thick towel around her torso and she got out. She ran to the counter, tucking the towel top hem into itself so it wouldn't fall off her body. She grabbed the dryer and turned it on. She looked in the mirror, surprised at how long she had let her hair get. When she was finally dressed she grabbed her keys and ran down the stairs. She pulled her sunglasses out of her purse when she saw how bright it was outside. Seto had already left the mansion, Mokuba had to be at a prep class so it really just left her and she was going out now. She ran into the kitchen and grabbed a pen and paper. Went to the Turtle Shop, don't wait up! Téa. She capped the pen and made her way out. She got into her car and drove off in the direction of the Turtle Shop. She remembered that Yugi seemed upset the night he called.

Téa finally arrived and when she did she found Yugi waiting outside the door. She turned off her engine and got out of the car. She ran over to him. "Yugi are you all right?"

"I'm fine Téa, it's Yami."

"Yami? No, I don't want to get involved with him again."

"Téa! I've never seen him this down before, he didn't tell me what was up."

"Well, where is he?"

"I'm not sure, I think he went out with Zahra." Her mouth opened then closed. She folded her arms across her chest, staring down at the short boy.

"Zahra? You dragged me out here to talk about someone who is out with his girlfriend." She pondered and clicked her tongue, clearly upset. She made her way back to her car and Yugi ran after her.

"Stop, Yami isn't seeing Zahra, she's just his friend, nothing more, Téa." She glared down at him and he looked at her, wanting her to trust and believe.

"Nothing more? Yugi, I don't think you see the passion in that girl's eyes when she looks at him. She's got it bad."

"That really doesn't matter, Téa. Yami is in love with you and I think this might be why he's down. You rejecting him and all." He shook his head, disappointed in her. "I hate to say it Téa, but you are cruel to him, he only wishes you to think fondly of him."

"I'm not giving myself to a man who left and before he left told me nothing could ever happen between us, spilling words about destiny and such that would get between us. You know what, I'm very content in my life. I have a son who loves me unconditionally and my parents don't hate me so much anymore and then there's…" she trailed off, she still hadn't told anyone about Seto and her. No one outside the Kaiba Mansion knew. She hadn't dared say anything, the way they would look at her… the way… would she be ashamed if her friends for years found out that she was romantically involved with Seto Kaiba? She loved Seto, she shouldn't have any doubts about their relationship, she should be able to run up onto the school rooftop of Domino High and scream out what Seto Kaiba meant to her. She looked down, what Seto Kaiba meant to Cole and her.

"What is it, Téa?" but she didn't answer, she saw Yugi look past her, she turned and she saw Zahra and Yami standing side by side next to each other. Zahra looked at Yami and then back at Téa and smiled thinly before headed inside the shop. Yami's hand tightened into a fist, he was surprised to see her, and Téa folded her arms across her chest once again and looked up a Yami.

"Téa…" he trailed off, surprised to see her there with Yugi.

"Yami, Yugi tells me that you're not yourself. What's the matter did…" she bit her bottom lip gently, trying not to be bitter towards him, he was trying to weasel into her life. "God! Yugi's right!" This made Yugi look at Téa with shock and Yami looked at her with confusion. She rushed over to Yami and grabbed him by the hand "Can we go somewhere and talk. I mean, I haven't really talked to you since you got back to Domino."

"I'd like that." He said, gliding his hand over hers. Her hand so small in comparison to his, Yami smiled up at her and Téa nodded.

"Okay, let's go."
