So thanks guys! Now, I don't want to keep you guys waiting! Here's my second chapter!
Chapter 2: Meeting Again
Notes: They don't have mirrors so they just use the water of their bathtub. Dumb but I need it to make sense.
Téa beamed as she found a necklace that she could wear to the palace. It was a gold necklace with a blue diamond in the middle and tiny red jewels around the diamond. She bought it and left the shop while thinking about the boy she met awhile ago. She couldn't understand why she was thinking about Yugi. She didn't actually know him so why think about him. He's just a guy in the past…right?
Right now in the palace, the young pharaoh was trying out capes and throwing out the ones he didn't want. He looked at his reflection from the water and frowned. "No…this one will never do." He tossed it aside and took out a red one. "Hmm…I guess this one will do."
Yugi went to his jewel box and put on a couple of rings. He then put on his crown and the millennium puzzle around his neck.
The teen went back to the water and saw that he looked very nice. 'I just hope its enough to impress Téa.'
He leaned back against the wall and sighed. He wanted her so badly for some reason, even though he barely knew her. All they did was talk and couldn't help to think she was interesting.
But that was the strange part; here was a girl that he hardly knew, thinking that she was interesting when he never thought about another girl he knew that way. 'She's different from other girls, but in a good way.' He thought. 'I just know it.'
The boy looked outside the window to see that sunset would arrive soon. 'Better go and wait then.'
Téa ran down the streets, not wanting to be late, especially for the pharaoh. She had placed her necklace in a pouch so it wouldn't get lost. After a couple of minutes, she stopped in front of the palace doors. The girl gasped at how big it was but soon was called by a guard. "Hey! Stop!"
She stared at him since she was just standing. The man cleared his throat and asked what her business was.
"I'm here to dance for the pharaoh!"
"Dance…for the pharaoh?"
"Yup!" she said with a smile. "My friend came to ask the pharaoh if I may dance for him and the pharaoh said yes!"
The guard looked at her like she was crazy. "Do you honestly believe that I would fall for that trick?"
Téa gave him a confused while he continued, "You plan to kill the pharaoh!"
Yugi stared outside the balcony with a sad expression. It was nearly sunset and the girl hadn't showed up. Maybe she got scared of what the pharaoh may do to her if she performed badly. If it was true, then he could add that to the list of 'why not to be a pharaoh'.
He looked down at the gates to see one of his guards and… a girl? He tried to get a better look and saw that she had brown hair and blue eyes! It must be Téa! And by the way the guard is looking at her; she may have done something wrong.
Wasting no time, he came down the balcony and started running to the palace gates.
"What!" She couldn't believe what she was hearing. She, a poor innocent girl, going after to kill the kind pharaoh that everyone was talking about. This wasn't right!
"You're coming with me!" he stated as he grabbed her wrist. "Hey!" she screamed as she tried to pull away. "Let go!"
"Oh no you criminal!"
"STOP!" a new voice came in. The two turned around to see that pharaoh himself. The guard panicked. "Master!" the man down to his knees as quickly as possible.
On the other hand, Téa was just looking at the ruler. People spoke about him all the time but they never said that he was her age! Looking past that fact, he noticed his three colored hair and his beautiful violets that seem familiar.
Remembering who he was, she too went down to her knees, waiting to hear what he was going to say.
"What is going on here?" he asked the guard. The man gulped and tried to start it off. "Well…pharaoh…you…see…um…did you…ask her to dance?" he asked stupidly.
Her mouth dropped opened while Yugi gave him a raised eyebrow. "Someone was suppose to come and dance for me, she must be it." Yugi turned his now gently eyes to Téa. "What is your name?" he asked even though he knew her name already.
"T-T-Téa! S-S-Sir!" she answered.
"Yes. That was her name. Mind taking her to the dancers' room?"
"Yes. I mean, no sir! I will gladly take her!"
Yugi nodded and looked back at his secret friend. "I will see you in a few minutes."
"Y-yes s-s-sir!"
"Permission to leave master?" the guard asked.
"Granted."
"Come now girl." But Téa just stared at the pharaoh, just looking into his eyes with no escape. 'His eyes…'
"Come girl!" The guard said louder and grabbed her wrist; pulling her to the dancers' room. But while he was doing that, she looked over her shoulder to see that he was gone.
Yugi wasn't able to continue looking at her; seeing the fear in her eyes. She was scared of him because he was the pharaoh. The ruler of all of Egypt!
But he didn't want her to look at him like that. Like a man who would kill anyone if they disobeyed his orders.
'Hopefully I could tell her later on so she won't be so scared.'
The guard and teen made it to the dancers' room shortly after what happened. "Now." The guard warned her. "I still think you're after our pharaoh so I'm going to keep an extra eye on you." Then the guard walked again.
Téa sighed under her breathe, "Some people don't have a life."
She knocked on the door but no one answered. She knocked again and this time a girl about her age opened the door. She had greed eyes and long red hair for some reason. The girl was very white so she knew that she was from another country and she was as skinny as Téa
The girl smiled and greeted, "Hi! I'm Kyoui! You must be the new dancer!" (Kyoui-bad name, sorry. But it means wonder in Japanese so that's why I picked it as a name)
Téa blinked but nodded. "Hi! Yeah that's me. I'm Téa by the way." The two girls shook hands.
"Well, come in than! You're late you know!"
"Yeah…I had some trouble earlier on."
"No time for that! Come on!" The red head grabbed the brunette and bragged her inside, closing the door behind her.
"Hey!" Kyoui let go of Téa and went to the closet, throwing out everything! But the guest looked around the room and saw that there was about ten desks and jewels on top of them with some costumes on the chairs.
"Found one!" Kyoui shouted happily.
"Wha-" The green eyed girl tossed a beautiful red costume to the blue eyed girl. "Wear that! The dressing room is over there!" She said pointing.
Once again, Téa nodded and went inside to change. After five minutes, the girl came out with the dress on and the necklace she bought earlier.
"You look wonder!" Kyoui beamed.
"Thanks." She responded smiling.
"Hurry! You're late!"
"What?" the brunette looked outside the window and gasped. The sun was at least two minutes down. "You're right!"
"You better go! You'll be performing at the throne room."
"Um…where's the throne room?"
"It's down your right. There will be two big golden doors so you'll know that it's there."
"Thank you for everything Kyoui."
"Ahh…" Kyoui said while rubbing the back of her neck. "It was nothing."
Téa gave her a friendly hug before running off.
Yugi sighed. 'Where is she?' he thought. It was passed at least 15 minutes and the girl he wanted to see hasn't come. He looked around in the throne room and saw the priests and princesses talking away as usually.
"Pharaoh Yugi." Yugi's eyes went to the person who said his name. "My lord, the new dancer has arrived. Do you wish for me to send her in?"
'No. Let the girl I've been waiting for stand outside.' He thought sarcastically. "Yes, bring her in. I wish to see her performance."
The man nodded and went to go get her. Yugi smiled. 'I'll finally be able to see her dance.'
Téa gulped. She was very nervous about performing in front of the pharaoh. What if he didn't like the dance she will perform and she has to go back to her step-sisters.
'No.' she thought. 'Dominic had missed so many of his businesses to come and put me here. He wants me to be here and I know that he's waiting for the news about me joining in with the palace dancers. I won't let my nervousness fail him!'
A tap on her shoulder broke her from her thoughts and she turned around to see a man who she guessed was the advisor. "My lady, the pharaoh wishes to see your performance."
She nodded. "Thanks. Do I just come in?"
The man shook his head. "No, you must wait for me to introduce you. Come."
They walked into the throne room and all the people stopped calling to see who came in. They started whispering while Téa again grew nervous.
Pushing it to the back of her head, she looked around at all the royal people, bands, and the priests.
"My pharaoh." The advisor spoke and she turned her attention to where he was looking at. At the top of the large throne was Pharaoh Yugi.
"Here is your new entertainment, the new dancing girl!" The man said as he showed her to the pharaoh. She gulped but once she saw the advisor leave with the music playing, she started to relax.
(I'm bad at dancing so I don't know how to describe it. Sorry.) She started off slowly, following the sounds of music. She gently tip toed across the 'stage', spinning softly while moving her hands over her head as if they were swirling.
Yugi looked at the girl with wonder. The music began to pace up to see if the girl could keep up with it and she did! No many girls are able to do that since they are use to slow beats but she was still dancing with the music. From the corner of his eye, he could see other people amazed as well. 'I knew she was different from other girls.' He thought with a smile. 'She's perfect.'
The music died and Téa stopped gently. No sound was made and it scared her. But pair of hands was clapping and she looked up to see the pharaoh clapping with a…'Smile?'
Soon other people started clapping and then the whole room was cheering; guys whistling. She let a grin pass her lips as she saw that she impressed them. 'Wow.'
She saw the advisor in the crowd, motioning her to go with him with his hand. The teen nodded and walked over there. They walked out to the hall and he began to speak. "You danced well. That boy wasn't joking when he said that you were good. But the crowd and I weren't the only ones impressed; it seems you've interested our pharaoh as well. I never have seen him so impressed."
"Thank you."
"Yeah, thanks Simon. But I think I could tell her how impressed I was." Yugi cut in as he walked to the two.
The advisor's face lit up. "My pharaoh, I'm sorry about that."
"Nah. It's alright. Anyway, Téa I was hoping that we could have a talk in my chambers."
The brunette's mouth dropped open. She couldn't believe that the pharaoh had asked her to go to his chambers! But she kept her cool and responded, "Sure."
The two walked into the pharaoh's chambers and he sat her on his bed and he sat across from her. "You were a good dancer Téa! I had never seen another person dance like that! I could tell that the drummer was getting upset since he liked getting people out."
Téa blushed and rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment. "Thanks."
Yugi than noticed the necklace. "I see that you found a necklace at the market. It looks beautiful on you."
She blinked. 'How did he know I was looking for a necklace at the market?'
Seeing her confused face, Yugi asked, "Do you remember me at the market?"
She shook her head and he continued, "You have too. We met a couple of hours ago."
She gasped. 'It can't be!' He leaned forward so he could be next to her ear. "It's me." He whispered. "Yugi."
