Mokubas First Love

Chapter 13: Is Something Wrong?

Anzu and Shizuka went to school like always the next day. Mai went back to her normal job. Naomi went to school with Amaterasu and Uzume tagging along. Again. Throughout the whole month, Anzu, Shizuka, Mai, Naomi, Amaterasu, and Uzume could not look Mokuba in the eye. The guys, all except Mokuba, got supicious.

Yami was the first to act. He took Anzu out on a lunch date. It was summer vacation and Anzu wore a yellow sundress and a straw hat adorned her head. They had lunch at a small cafe near the game shop. Yami ordered a club sandwich while Anzu ordered a salad. They waited in silence for their orders.

"Is something wrong?" Yami asked, breaking the silence. Anzu looked confused.

"What are you talking about Yami?" She asked.

"You haven't been able to look Mokuba in the eye lately." Yami pointed out. "Is there something I should know?" He asked. Anzu looked guilty, but shook her head. She put on a fake smile that a monkey could see through.

"Nothing's wrong Yami. Everythings fine." She said. Yami didn't question it any further but wasn't convinced either. Their orders came.

Mai and Jounouchi were strolling along in the park. Both of them had ice creams cones in their hands. Jounouchi was happily licking his ice cream, however Mai didn't touch hers. Jounouchi noticed this.

"You okay Mai? You haven't touched your ice cream." He asked.

"I'm fine Jounouchi." Mai replied. "It's nothing. I'm not hungry for ice cream, that's all." Jounouchi didn't look convinced, but dropped the subject. He kept sneaking Mai suspicious glances while they walked through the park.

Seto and Shizuka were lounging around in Seto's private pool. Shizuka, clad in a yellow two piece swimsuit, was diving into the pool while Seto, in his usual clothes, was working on his laptop nearby. Shizuka came out of the pool and wiped her face with a white towel. Now Seto wasn't really working, more like checking Shizuka out. Oh, and also wondering how to ask Shizuka why she wouldn't look Mokuba in the eye; but mostly checking Shizuka out. Shizuka noticed him staring. She grinned evilly.

'If he wants a show, he's got a show.' She thought. She wiped herself off (in an alluring kinda way) and walked over to Seto. Sitting on his lap she asked seductively, "What are you working on Seto?" Seto was surprised at her boldness, but decided to play along.

"Nothing." He replied.

"Oh?" She said. "What are you really doing then?" She asked. Seto smirked.

"You tell me." He said. Shizuka smiled. Seto's hand found it's way on the back of her neck as he pulled her towards him; more specifically his lips. They met in a sweet kiss. Shizuka's hands were rested upon Seto's cheeks while Setos free hand was wound around her waist. "Now will you tell me why you won't look my little brother in the eye?" He asked. Shizuka looked guilty.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She said abrutly, pulling away and diving back into the pool. Seto eyes narrowed suspiciously. He would ask again later.

Amaterasu and Honda were double-dating with Uzume and Otogi. They walked around the amusement park. They rode on roller coasters and the Ferris Wheel. Amaterasu saw Naomi and Mokuba and pointed them out to the others. They walked over to them.

"Hey Naomi!" Amaterasu and Uzume called. Naomi noticed them. She waved back.

"What are you guys doing here?" Mokuba asked. Uzume avoided Mokubas eyes.

"We're double dating." was her simple answer.

"We'd better go and leave you alone then." Naomi said, noticing the girls discomfort. They said their good-byes and left.

"Wait up!" Honda and Otogi said, hurrying to keep in pace with Amaterasu and Uzume.

"Sorry." The two Goddess' apologized simutaneously.

Yami and Anzu went to a secluded waterfall close to Anzus place. A small house was located next to the waterfall. Anzu and Yami went inside.

"Anzu you have to tell me why you wont look Mokuba in the eye." He said softly. Anzu stood with her back to him.

"Nothings wrong Yami. Just drop it." She said coldly. Yami was startled with her tone of voice but he quickly recovered. His eyes narrowed. He walked swiftly and silently behind her. "I'm going home." Anzu turned around and was faced with Yami's chest.

"You are not unless you tell me what the hell has been wrong with you." He demanded.

"Nothing's wrong!" She denied.

"Something is wrong." He replied. "And I'm going to find out." Anzu's eyes narrowed as well.

"Well you can't get it out of me."

Suddenly, her back was slammed against the hard wall. She shuddered as she felt Yami's tongue tracing the outline of her ear. Her legs turned to jelly as she used the wall to support herself. "I can be very persistant when I want to be." He said huskily. Anzu shivered as she felt his warm breath on her neck and ear. His lips found it's way to her neck.

"Yami." She whispered softly. He kissed her passionately. Anzu's arms had found it's way snaked around Yami's neck. She put her hands on his shoulders and pushed him away. "Fine." Anzu said. Yami smirked. They both sat down on the sofa. She started explaining.

Mai and Jounouchi had sat down on a bench. "Now are you going to tell me whats wrong?" He asked.

"What makes you think anything is wrong?" She replied.

"You didn't eat your ice cream."

"I wasn't hungry."

"You're quiet."

"I have a lot of things on my mind."

"You haven't been able to look Mokuba in the eye lately." Mai froze. Jouounchi smirked. "Can you please tell me whats wrong?" He asked.

"It's nothing. Trust me." Mai answered. Jouounchi frowned. Then his face lit up and he smiled devilishly. He suddenly started tickling her in the stomach. She started laughing. "Jouounchi stop. No seriously stop please." Mai begged as laughter overwhelmed her. Jouounchi continued to tickle her, purposely ignoring her pleas. "Okay, okay I'll tell you whats wrong." Mai said. Jounouchi stopped. Mai hesitated but started to tell him.

Shizuka pulled herself out of the pool, taking the same white towel she used to wipe herself off. After a maid took the towel from her, Shizuka walked over to the extra seat beside Seto and plopped down on it. She delicately lifted the glass cup from a stand and sipped the contents from it before placing it back on the stand and turning to Seto. He was looking at her from the corner of his eye, glaring. She gulped and turned away, still feeling his eyes on her.

"Are you gonna tell me now?" His gruff voice asked. Shizuka squeezed her eyes tight, not wanting to speak. "Shiuzuka." His tone had a warning pitch to it.

"Alright!" She growled a bit angrily. "Just make sure no one bothers us and don't interrupt me until I'm done talking." Seto nodded and made sure no one bothered them. He then turned back to Shizuka and she took a deep breath, spilling the past events out.

Uzume and Amaterasu split up, going off with their dates somewhere else. Amaterasu and Honda wandered around, occasionally going on some rides. Amaterasu spotted the ferris wheel up ahead. "Let's go on that!" She asked excitedly. Honda laughed.

"Okay sure!" Amaterasu started to run and pulled Honda along with her. They lined up and paid the fee. The door to the cart opened and Honda gestured to Amaterasu. "Ladies first." He said. Amaterasu giggled. She nodded to him.

"Thank you kind sir." She then stepped inside, Honda following quickly. The cartman locked the door and the ferris wheel moved to let out and let in other people.

After everyone had gotten on board, then ferris wheel started to move. Honda smiled as Amaterasu began to look out the windows. A sad smile lit up on her face. "If only Naomi would be here to see this in a few years." Honda was confused.

"Why wouldn't she be?" Honda asked Amaterasu. The Goddess jumped, forgetting she wasn't alone.

"Uh...well I meant to say...that is..." She stuttered. A refined and elegant Goddess was not supposed to stutter, especially the Goddess of the Sun/Light. Honda knew something was up.

"What is it? What's going to happen to Naomi?" He asked her. Amaterasu began to get smaller under his gaze.

"It's nothing. Really." He began to glare at her as she shrunk even more.

"Tell me." He said. Amaterasu sighed.

"I guess it can't be helped." She murmured. Twiddling her thumbs, she began the story.

"Wow! Thank you Otogi!" Uzume cried as she happily took the small plushie from Otogi's offering hands. She cuddled it. "It's so soft!" She cooed. Otogi smiled. They kept walking along. Uzume spotted a food stand. They were selling American food. She licked her lips. "Let's go get some hot dogs!" She said. Otogi nodded.

"Okay." He said. They both walked to the hot dog stand and Otogi payed for two hot dogs. Uzume put lots of ketchup, mustard and relish on her hot dog. Otogi put the same, just a lesser amount.

After they ate the hot dogs, Uzume played some games. She won a few more small plushies. Finally they both sat on a bench and Uzume looked at all her prizes. Her eyes drifted on a particular one. She turned to Otogi.

"Otogi-kun, here. I want you to have this." Otogi looked at the small Uzume plushie she had shoved in front of his face. "I used my Goddess powers to turn it into a plushie of myself. I know it seems kind of corny, but I want you to have it." She said, blushing.

Otogi smiled and took the small doll from her hands. "I don't think it's corny at all. It's actually kinda cute." Uzume blushed.

"Thanks." She said. His smile widened.

"Now that we're on good terms, why not tell me why you won't look that Mokuba kid in the eye." He asked her. Her body visibly froze, but relaxed.

"I'm not as strict as Amaterasu. As long as you pormise not to tell anyone." Otogi nodded. "Pinky swear?" He smirked but nodded. She took a breath and exhaled. Her mouth opened and her voice started to work on it's own.

A/N Yeah I know. I haven't updated in like forever. I'm REALLY sorry! Please forgive me! I had a major writers block. IT WAS ALL SHIZUKA AND SETO'S FAULT!

Shizuka: WHAT?
