One Day to Ourselves

Ch. 3

A/N: I know this isn't my best work but I really wanted to finish this story. I'm tired and I didn't know how I wanted it finished, so I just ended it like that. I hope you at least got some laughs from it. I know I kinda enjoyed it as well. It was meant to be a Tea and Yugi fic but I guess I'm a little to involved with my Seto and Tea fic "Our Slice of Heaven" right now. Well, like I said, I hope you enjoyed it. Sorry for taking so long to update. And thanks to all who have reviewed.


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 guessed the later 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 goop 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 law 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 potty. Oh NO! was her only thought as she felt herself flip backwards. The back of her head hit the toilet seat and, much to her dislike, the icky goop came spilling out. The cubicle bounced and rolled all the way down a hill until it finally stopped at a dumpster.

Tea was quite upset. Her best outfit was ruined, and she stack like poop and piss. Trying to get up, Tea slipped and fell on the door. Now the door decided to open spilling her onto the cement. She didn't even look to see if anyone saw her. She just grabbed her purse and ran home.

Yugi was just coming around. He picked up his head from the road only to see a pissed off stranger, a very unimpressed and upset cop, and half of the park commuters looking at him. He felt as big as an ant at this time. Apologizing profusely, Yugi then decided to tell the officer about Tea. But upon looking where the porta-potti was located, he only saw the vehicle. The potty was no where in sight and neither was Tea.

Yugi finally decided to put aside the one percent of pride he had left, fell to his knees, and begged for mercy. Both men rolled their eyes. Seeing as no one was hurt and the car was alright, the officer let him off with a warning. Besides, the officer figured that the kid was mental anyway and so sent him on his way.

Yugi finally made it to the Kame Game shop. He went straight to his room and went to sleep. In his dreams, he was being harassed by a crazed monkey dressed as Tea. Then when he went to subdue the monkey, he got hit by a car and the real Tea was sent flying down a hill in a potty. The next thing Yugi new, he was getting up and dressed. He would make this up to Tea no matter what. He stopped by the store to pick up flowers and headed for the Gardner residence.

Tea had just finished crying. This day was supposed to be just for her and Yugi and she would finally tell him how much she truly cared for him. It was now almost eight at night, all chances of them getting together by themselves again where slim until next year. She was about to fall off to sleep when her mom popped her head in and told her that Yugi was downstairs. Groaning, Tea got up and put her robe on. He was the last person she wanted to see.

Mrs. Gardner didn't even bother going downstairs but went straight to her room. She decided that her daughter needed to be alone with her new boyfriend for a while.

Yugi stood up as Tea entered the living area. He could tell she had been crying. He quickly hugged her and handed her the flowers. It was crazy as she immediately hugged him back and didn't say a word. They stood there for what seemed like forever before she pulled away from him.

"Yugi, thank you for the flowers."

"Tea, I know we didn't get to spend time together today. But how about we go out tomorrow night. Just me and you and that nice restaurant down on the South Hampton street."

Tea smiled at Yugi. She knew he would pull through for her and say what she couldn't. She hugged him again and promised to meet up with him there.

Now, they could truly spend some time together, even if it wasn't one day.

A/N: Okay, that was my first attempt at a YugixTea fic. I'm going to make lots of others but ten times better than this one. That's for sure. Well, thanks to everyone who reviewed. tata
