One Day to Ourselves
Chapter 4

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh!


Footsteps were one of the only sounds heard running down the sidewalk. Pedestrians just stopped to watch as the young brunette girl ran for her life from the stupid birds that were continuing to follow her. Must keep running! she told herself as she spied a porta-potti not too far away.

'coo, coo' damn birds are still behind me. Crap! When will this day end! After running into the porta-potti and locking the door, she rolled her eyes at how ironic that statement was. Not too long ago she was overzealous at the prospect of being with Yugi for one whole day by herself, and now, she just couldn't wait to get home and take a nice long hot bath.

She looked around her surroundings, trying her best not to be too grossed out. Porta-Potti bad idea, should have kept on running. She berated herself for her bad common sense. Looking around, Tea squinted her nose. She didn't dare to even sit down on the nasty toilet seat behind her. She could have swore that something was alive in that toilet. Of course, the smell wasn't helping her either. Feeling nauseated, all she wanted to do was get out but, going against her better judgment, she stayed in the porta-potti. After what seemed like a life-time, she put her hand on the door of the porta-potti and pushed.

Yugi walked around the park after his encounter with the devious little monkey. He made a mental note to himself to never get a pet monkey and to stay out of that area of the park. He was still a little ashamed of himself. Here he was , the King of Games, and he was running and fighting with a stupid monkey named Bimbo. Seto Kaiba would have had a field day with that one.

Mental note to self, make sure no one finds out about that encounter. He promised himself this.

He finally made his way to the lake in the middle of the park. He was a little upset to find that he hadn't seen Tea anywhere. He sighed and leaned back on the railings. That's when he spotted the phone booth not to far from him. Why didn't he think about it first. Tea had her cell phone with her. Excited, he ran to the booth, but unfortunately there was a rather large man in the booth taking his sweet old time talking.

Looking around, Yugi spotted another phone booth and ran to it. Stepping inside, he put in his quarters and dialed her number.

Tea didn't know what was worse, being trapped in the stupid porta-potti or being chased by crazed pigeons. She guess the latter would have been better than this. Just as her thoughts were taking a turn for the worst, (because she might be stuck in here all day and night), her cell phone rang.

She jumped at the sudden noise but immediately went to grab her phone. Picking it up, she answered.

"Tea where are you?"

"Yugi, I'm so glad to hear you. Please save me. I'm stuck in this awful porta-potti and if someone doesn't get me out soon, I'll die."

"Okay, where are you at?"

"The porta-pottis in the middle of the park by the lake. I'm stuck and can't get out."

"Alright I'll be there in a second." with that Yugi hung up and walked out of the booth. He spied the potties not far from where he was and started towards them.

Tea almost burst into tears. Was Yugi finally coming to rescue her. Okay, now she knew she was losing her mind when she started seeing being rescued from a porta-potti as romantic. She guessed all the nasty smells were getting to her and affecting her brain. It wasn't too long before she heard Yugi's voice calling for her.

"Yugi! I'm over here!" she yelled out. Gross, the smell even got into her mouth.

"Tea! How did you get stuck in there?" she could've swore she heard a hint of laughter in his voice.

"Well, it's a long story. As soon as you get me out, I'll explain."

Yugi just nodded and proceeded to tug on the door. But no use, the stupid door would not budge. He tried harder.

Tea was actually wishing he would stop that. All the shaking was making the goo in the toilet turn up nastier smells. She covered her nose.

"No good Tea. Hang on while I go and get some help!" Yugi stated. Before she could even get a word out, Yugi had disappeared and she was left alone again.

Yugi was able to spot a police man from across the street. Excited that something was finally going right, he ran towards the police man, completely oblivious to the traffic on the road heading his way.

He was almost there when he realized that a car was coming. Looking like a complete idiot, and wetting his pants, he let out a shrill scream and passed out. The driver, not wanting a lose suit, swerved and jumped over the small sidewalk lining. Slamming on the brakes, the car came to a halting stop.

What's all that noise out there? Tea asked herself. She really wished she could see what was going on. It was only a couple of minutes later that Tea felt a small bump on the potti. Oh NO! was her only thought as she felt herself flip backwards.

Well, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. I'm sorry it took so long for me to update. I've been having brain blockage with this one. Well, till next chappie.
