Chapter Six
Serenity had recovered enough that Dr. Faust said "she could go home, but she had to follow the instructions he gave her to the letter." Joey was visiting her when the Doctor gave her the news and she turned to her brother and said "can I talk to you?" "What is it" he asked her. Serenity took a deep breath and said "what if I told you that I have fallen in love with Bakura?" Joey stood and kissed his sister and said "listen I've known for a long time that the two of you had feelings and as long as he treats you like the lady you are then I say go for it." Serenity gave her brother a big hug and kiss. "How is Seto and Mokuba?" she asked him. Joey laughed and said "Mokuba has the chicken pox and Seto doesn't know if he had them so they are in quarantine together." Serenity laughed out loud it was music to his ears. Joey said "I've got to get back and make sure that they don't kill each other and make sure we have enough calamine lotion for the itching." Serenity said "tell them that I said I love them and don't scratch." Joey got home and both Seto and Mokuba were sitting with their hands in mittens so they couldn't scratch and Marie the Cook standing over them with a rolling pin ready to smack them if they tried. Seto looked at Joey and said "get this mean woman away from us" but as he said it you could see the love he had for the woman who helped raise both him and Mokie. Marie said "I need a very large raise for this." and then she laughed and went back to the kitchen.
When Serenity got home, her parents sat her down and said "we need to talk about Bakura." Her father cleared his throat and said "he can come her and see you as long as either your mother or I are here." Serenity nodded that she understood and then she said "what if he wants to take me out to dinner?" Mary spoke up and said "that's alright, but you can't be alone together just yet." Hank laughed out loud and said "if it sounds like we don't trust either you or him, well we don't want the two of you to be in the situation where something could happen." Serenity put her arms around her parents and said through her tears "I love you both and thank you for caring enough for me to let us be together." There was a knock on the door and Hank went to answer it and there stood Bakura. "May I come in and talk to you and your wife?" Serenity went to her room to let them talk. Bakura sat down and said " I love your daughter and the feeling I have for the two of you is so strong that I want to thank both of you for allowing us to see each other and for lying down ground rules for us seeing each other." Mary smiled at Bakura and gave him a kiss and that made him blush and Hank laughed. Hank shook his hand and said "you are one reason why we have our daughter with us and for that we will be forever grateful." As they talked, Serenity laid on her bed and thought what it would be like to have Bakura hold her in his strong arms and she got excited and it made her blush to being thinking thoughts like that. Just before Bakura left, he knocked on her bedroom door and she opened it and came outside and he laid his hand on the side of her face and kissed her good-bye. Before he left he whispered "think of me, because I'll be thinking of you" and then he went home. And so began Bakura's courtship of Serenity.
