Kineticfairy: Okay everybody, (Chuckles nervously) Let's not bicker and fight over who forgot to update what…

Kaiba: You're the one who didn't update and I warned you to update before an angry mob of reviewers showed up at your door.

Kineticfairy: Whoa, it's not my fault I happen to write well, or have a good plot going or whatever it is that keeps this nice mob from walking away.

Kaiba: If you didn't want to be hassled you shouldn't have posted the story.

Kineticfairy: (through gritted teeth) Kaiba-kun, I think I'm falling out of love with you.

Kaiba: (gasping) Oh, Kineticfairy… say it isn't so!

Kineticfairy: 'fraid so Kaiba. His name is Jak.

Kaiba: Where does Jak boy live?

Kineticfairy: In Games, under Jak and Daxter… that's where! Trust me Kaiba, this is one guy I don't think you can kick his ass.

Kaiba: (Glaring) We'll just see about that, I never lose a fan girl! (Storms off)

Well, here we go… the chapter I'm sure this here mob was waiting so impatiently for…

Téa sat on the floor off the bathroom. Tears were streaming down her face and she was chocking on sobs, she didn't want to worry anyone in the mansion, not that Seto was home, to worry about her. She breathed in and extended her legs, just letting the tears fall as her right hands' fingers clenched and unclenched around something in her hands. She wasn't sure if this was the best news of her life… or very well the worst. She just wasn't sure. She loved Seto, right?

"Téa, Téa, you've been in there for an hour, what are you doing?" Mokuba demanded, pounding on the door. His sharp voice and constant pounding had sent her heart racing. As dear as Mokuba was to her he sure did know how to scare the hell out of her. Téa quickly wiped all her tears away and jumped to her feet, closing the robe around her body. She drew in another breath and pocketed whatever she was trying to conceal. She plastered on this big smile, shook out her hair and opened the door. Mokuba stood before with this concern look on his face and his arms crossed over his chest, it was more like a glare, something that Seto took up when in the presence of Yugi and the others.

"What?" Mokuba sighed and pushed her forward and wondered into the bathroom, closing the door behind him. Téa shrugged and entered the living room. She wished she had more friends that were girls, but she wasn't into all of that socializing, being as content with her own friends as she was. Out of High school her social life seemed to deplete and Seto wasn't interested in any of the galas that were thrown together for his company. And a huge plus was because she had to take care of Cole who was busy over with his father and his step-family. Sometimes Téa worried if her three year old was happier with Yukari and her two children and another on the way. Aki had a daughter now, two years younger than Cole and a newborn, Téa wondered if they ever gave it a rest. Téa was unaware of what this day was going to lead her to, a strange twist of fate was congregating around her and seeping off like destruction, but she couldn't sense it and she couldn't see it.

The suddenly opened and Seto appeared in the doorway, looking exhausted as usual. She walked over to him and slid a hand up his shoulder. "Tough day?"

"Per usual." He stated, setting down his briefcase and loosening his tie. "Do you ever feel like the day is just going to get worse?"

"More than you know…" she fretted now telling him about her discovery. He was tired and didn't look like he was ready for such news. She slipped his jacket off and pulled him into the living room and had him sit down. She returned moments later with black, sugarless, bitter coffee. He took the mug from her hands and sipped it gently. Her eyes widen.

"Do you… love me?" It wasn't an emotion he went around proclaiming or even whispering. He looked at her and sighed. It was as if the very word offended him.

"You know I do… what's wrong?"

"I never hear you say it."

"I've said it." He snapped, not out of anger, out of defense. Seto was just defensive. He didn't mean to be but, Gozoboro had ruined his childhood rather well. "What's wrong." He asked, setting the mug down and putting all his attention on her. Téa's eyes widen and she shook her head and got up.

"Nothing." She headed up the stairs. Téa entered the room that used to be hers before she moved in permanently with Seto. She laid stomach first on the bed, burying her face the pillow and just let the tears fall, muffling her sobs. No more than a minute later the door opened and she felt someone sit on the bed next to her. The hand hesitantly rested on the curve of her back. She felt lips press against her ear and hot air on her skin when he spoke.

"Tell me. I do care, Téa." She faced him, he moved just in time so her head wouldn't smack his. The tears sparkled in her massive blue eyes; he touched her face and hated seeing her cry. She wrapped her arms tightly around his torso and buried her face into his chest. He was uncomfortable, but he needed her to know he loved her so he allowed her to cry as much as she could before she could even utter a word to him. Finally after what seemed like an eternity, she pulled back and looked up at him.

"I hate myself, I hate my body. I think it's against me in every action I take—" she began to go on like this in a heat of anger and causing him much confusion that he had to interrupt her.

"What are you talking about?"

"Kaiba! I'm trying to tell you that I'm pregnant." His bottom jaw dropped, making his mouth an open cavern. Tears started to flow, but her expression was angry.

"Are you a hundred percent sure?" she showed him the test. "Those things can be inaccurate, did you see a doctor?" she ran her hand up her left arm nervously.

"No."

"Please go see a doctor, we can set an appointment up tomorrow and—"

"No, I can't tomorrow. I have to pick up Cole."

"All right, the day after then and I'll even go with you." She looked at him in disbelief.

"Really?"

"Yes, Téa, really. You have to know I love you, even if I don't always say it." She nodded and walked back over to him and enfolded him in her arms, kissing him softly on the lips. He kissed her back, deepening the kiss, pulling her closer to him. Even with the knowledge that his girlfriend may very well be pregnant he still wanted her like any man wanted a woman. He pushed off her robe and lifted her tank above her head, moving his mouth down to her neck. Maybe he should wait until she got tested, but even then he couldn't… he wanted her now. Maybe somewhere unknown to him and hidden in his self-conscious he wanted her to be with his child. Just maybe. Lucky for him they were interrupted by Mokuba walking in. His eyes widen and Seto pressed Téa against him so to hide her.

"Oh my God." He said very slowly, walking backwards and shutting the door. "I didn't see anything!" He screamed. "I heard crying and yelling! I was very worried!" He screamed again and they could hear footfalls on the stairs. Seto winced when they heard tumbling; Mokuba must've tripped over his feet or something because he also screamed out.

"I'm okay. Don't get up, stay where you are."

"I think he's going to need a minute." Seto said looking into her eyes.

"No more likely a day. However the mood is destroyed." She pulled out of his arms and put her shirt back on and the robe over her body. Seto watched her leave the room, probably to get more appropriately dressed, which brought Seto back to the reality that he may soon be a father and he wasn't even engaged to Téa, never the less married to the girl. He was going to have to remedy that, even if she wasn't pregnant, he had gone this long without taking the next step and this was just a push to get him to finally ask her to mean so much more to him.
