Chapter 5:
July 2010
"Come on, someone please pick up." Rachelle said holding her phone up to her ear.
"Seto Kaiba speaking."
"Seto, it's Rachelle." she said excitedly.
"Yes, the one that helped me. I didn't get a chance to properly thank you."
"I think you thanked me enough." Rachelle giggled. " I wanted to let you know that I'm coming to Japan and we have something that needs to be talked about."
"Of course, I would like to be able to have a chance to thank you again. Seto Kaiba does not forget those that save him."
"Thats is very good to hear. Would you be able to pick me up from the airport? My flight lands at Domino airport at 8pm."
"I'll send a limo to pick you up. Look for a sign with your name." Seto promised as Ishizu came downstairs.
"Thank you Seto, cant wait to see you, bye" Rachelle smiled putting her phone down
"Ishizu?"
"Are you ok Seto?" Ishizu raising an eyebrow.
"What is it?"
"There was more to my rescue than you know."
"Oh? " Ishizu questioned.
"I cheated on you." Seto looked tortured as he gazed at her.
"What? How could you!" Ishizu said glaring at him.
"I had no memory of you!"
"What did you do?"
"I slept with Rachelle."
"Anything else I should know? Actually I dont think I want to know." Ishizu frowned.
"Rachelle is on her way and wants to talk."
"When is she coming?"
"Well I guess I must thank Rachelle for saving your life. I was really worried about you, Seto. When I was told your jet had crashed, I feared the worst." She said taking the hand of his bad arm.
"You know I wouldn't have slept with her if I had remembered."
"Thank you." Seto kissed her.
When the doorbell rang at 8:30, Seto answered the door. Rachelle stood on the doorstep, her loose t-shirt barely concealing the pregnancy belly. "I think you forgot to mention something on the phone." he said quietly.
"That is what I came to talk to you about, where is your wife?"
"Right here-woah." Ishizu stopped as she saw Rachelle's baby bump. "I thought you said that was it." She glared at Seto.
"Come in Rachelle, I don't want you getting cold. How was your flight?" Seto asked shutting the door behind her.
"I'll explain everything, I promise." Seto mouthed to Ishizu behind Rachelle.
"Thank you Seto. What a beautiful house. My flight was really good." Rachelle smiled looking around.
"How do we know that baby is my husband's?"
"Because when Seto and I slept together we kinda...did it." Rachelle said going bright red.
"You could have slept with other men after he left for all I know. I'm asking for a DNA test when the baby's born to prove it."
"I dont have a boyfriend or partner. When I met Seto, I thought we would be together and start a relationship. But then he started getting his memories back."
"If he is proven to be the father by a DNA test I will ensure that he is a good father to your child. You will, right?"
Seto nodded. "I will do everything I can to help with your child if it is proven to be mine."
"Thank you, both of you. I think we will find though that a DNA test isn't necessary, especially if it comes out looking like Seto." Rachelle giggled nervously.
"I'm sure Ishizu wouldn't mind helping out with the pregnancy in case you are right." Seto looked at his wife, who sighed.
"Yes, if there's anything you need financially, call us."
"I'm really sorry Ishizu. if I had known sooner that Seto was married I wouldn't have done what I did. But since you two already have a son of your own, I was thinking maybe you two could adopt him or her from me."
Seto looked over at Ishizu, who nodded. "We would love to raise the child as our own. Especially if it's my own."
"And I will raise the child without any prejudice against how they came to be. I will not take it out on a child." Ishizu nodded.
"I have been thinking about it the whole way here on the plane and I believe it is the best option. I will get my mum and dad to help me so I can live in Japan to be closer to the baby as he or she grows up." Rachelle smiled gently rubbing her stomach.
"We can help her get a place, right?" Seto looked at his wife.
"It's up to you Seto, but if that's what you want to do, I'm here to help anyway I can." Ishizu smiled at Seto.
"We can do a private adoption where only the three of us know what the details are. You can keep in contact with the child and they can know you are if they choose when they grow up." Seto offered. "If you really want to when it gets closer, I can have my lawyer draw up the adoption documents."
"Would you really do that? Thank you so much Seto, that would be really great. Um is it ok if I give you a hug? Gently of course I don't want to hurt your broken arm."
Seto looked at Ishizu, who gave a slight nod. Seto gave her a gentle hug. "We'll arrange your apartment as soon as possible."
"Thank you two so much. Could I please get a ride to my hotel?"
"Sure, Rolland?" Seto asked into his jacket collar. "Bring the limo around for Rachelle."
"Right away, sir." Rolland responded as he got into the limo to bring it to the front door.
"The limo will be outside for you." Seto told her. "Go on ahead and keep us updated."
"Thank you two so much for everything. My flights are booked three days apart, so I will probably spend tomorrow with a friend. Good night Mr. and Mrs. Kaiba." Rachelle bowed before heading out the door.
"Thank you for being so understanding, Ishizu." Seto gave a weak smile.
"I'm still pretty mad at you for what you did behind my back. But if this child truly is yours, I'm more than happy to help take care of it for you and Rachelle." Ishizu smiled back kissing his forehead.
"I really am sorry."
"I know." Ishizu gave him a small smile before walking away.
