Téa was on her way to Atem's apartment building as he had something important to tell her. She took a cab again and started to think to herself.

'I wonder what Atem wants to tell me? We're engaged for a day and already he wants to see me. It's probably another make out session with him.' she giggled to herself from the thought.

As she reached the apartment building, she texted Atem to let her know she has arrived. A few seconds later, the door opened and Atem answered and brought her to Atem's small apartment. He opened his door and she saw that Tristan was already with him in the apartment as well.

"Uh, Atem, who's he?" she asked.

Atem sat her down by her on the couch and gave her some comfort. "Téa, this is Tristan, a friend of mine who works with me at Kaiba Corp. He came by because he got a call from his wife that she wanted him to get her food."

"She told me to get her takeout all frantic like. Maybe she lost some spices or something." said Tristan. Téa thought hard and she might have a clue who Tristan's wife is.

"Well, I better go get her the food before she really freaks out and starve. I'll see tomorrow at work Atem." Tristan and Atem fist pounded a farewell and walked back to his home. As he left, Téa scooted over to Atem a bit.

"Atem, there is something that I should tell you." Atem interrupted her to speak to her first.

"Before you do, there's something you should know too." She was all ears and heard him out. "I sold this apartment building so I could send that money to buy a new house for the both of us."

Téa gasped at what he said and hugged him. "Oh Atem, that's wonderful news. You actually managed to sell this small apartment?"

"Yeah, I can leave this crap fest so we could live together in a house that could fit both of us. And who knows, we might have a child of our own someday." Téa released the hug as they were getting back on topic. "Now, what were you going to tell me?"

She was a little hesitant, but went ahead and told him. "It's about Tristan, his wife is actually Serenity, a close friend of mine. And I know why she had him go out to get food for her." Atem was dumbfounded from what she said, but listened to her anyway. "Serenity and Tristan are having a baby, but Tristan doesn't know about it."

Atem was surprised about this and didn't even mention his wife's name at all. As Atem was about to speak again, Téa stopped him from speaking so she could explain further. "Tristan cannot know about this because Serenity wants to tell him. Just promise me you won't say anything."

Atem leaned up to Téa and whispered to her "My lips are sealed and they are about to be." Atem passionately kissed her as Téa returned the kiss as she wrapped her arms around his. They kept going for about two minutes until they stopped to catch their breath.

"Well, I better get back home. My dad and mom would want to hear the good news about us."

"Alright Téa." Téa grabbed her purse and left out the door until Atem stopped her as she tapped her on the shoulder.

"Why don't I drive you back home?"

"Sure, that would be great." Atem and Téa took Atem's car and drove back to her house. A couple of minutes passed during the drive and Atem parked in front of Téa's home.

"I'll call you tonight." said Atem.

"And I will be waiting for it." Téa gave Atem a quick kiss goodbye as she was about to leave.

"I love you, Atem."

"I love you too, Téa." As she made it inside her house, Atem drove off back to his apartment, but someone was watching them from afar. He was wearing all black with a walkie - talkie.

"Sir, the woman has just left with Atem."

"Keep an eye on the woman, I want to hear what they say."

"I overheard them that they would be on the phone tonight."

"Record the phone call, I want to try to get the address to her home and be there myself."

"Understood!"

The cloaked man did his orders and went nearby the house to record the phone call for his boss as Téa went up to her room.

MEANWHILE

Tristan and Serenity had just finished eating their food that Tristan ordered. As they finished up, Serenity walked to the living room and Tristan threw away the leftover food and followed behind her. It was 7:30 p.m. at night and Serenity and Tristan were wondering what they were getting each other for their anniversary.

"So Serenity, any ideas on what you are getting me for our anniversary in a couple of days?" he asked.

"Sorry Tristan, but you have to wait until that day and I will give you your present."

Tristan was giving her a pout look to try to get his gift out of her. "Come on Serenity, please? At least give me some sort of clue."

Serenity had an idea and decided to toy with him until their anniversary. "Alright Tristan, I will be glad to give you a clue. Your gift is close to you than you think."

Serenity kisses Tristan as she left upstairs to go take a shower. Tristan was thinking about what she meant by closer to him than he thought. He was not coming up with anything which was frustrating him. But, he had to keep his cool since he has to get her a present.

Tristan walks up to his prized possession, his great-grandfather's golden locket. It was in his family for decades as Tristan opens it up to show it is also a watch.

"My family's greatest heirloom. It's entirely made of gold and can tell time. If I don't have enough to get her gift, I am just gonna have to take extreme measures." Tristan put the locket back on the top shelf where he put it and went upstairs to wait for his wife to get out of the bathroom so he could shower next.

ONE WEEK LATER

It is the day before Tristan and Serenity's one year anniversary and Tristan had already paid all the bills from the day before. It is 9:00 a.m. and he is working his fingers to the bone with evaluations of employees in his station. When it came to supervising, he had to watch every employee do their job. He was typing in every evaluation paper that is supposed to be sent to Seto Kaiba in his office before the end of the day. As he was typing in all his entries, Duke walked up to him and tapped his shoulder causing Tristan to jump out of his seat.

"AH! Duke, don't freak me out like that! You almost made me delete my files!" he screamed.

"Well, good morning to you too, man. Why are you acting out like that anyway?" said Duke.

"Ugh, it's Serenity. These past few days, she's been having me go out and buy her food. I think she might be obsessed with take-out."

Duke actually had a thought of what might have gone on with her, but Duke thought that he would want to find out himself. "Maybe she's just hungry for certain food now and then. Oh! Before I forget, here." Duke gave Tristan $200 to help him out with getting Serenity the perfect present.

"Thanks a lot Duke. I owe you big time."

"Don't worry about it. We better get back to work before we get caught by Kaiba's cams." Duke pointed at the camera about to point their way.

"Right, thanks for the warning." Tristan and Duke saw the camera pointing their way as Tristan and Duke put on a small show for the camera so Kaiba doesn't know what they are up to.

"Alright Duke, get back to work before I report you!" Tristan yelled.

"Yes sir. I'll be going then." Duke walked back to his station in the manufacturing department as Tristan smiled with the money in hand.

As he was working in his station, Atem was upstairs in the control room with his boss Seto Kaiba in the camera room watching their employees as his camera men were his eyes and ears.

"Alright boys, any of my employees slip up yet?" Kaiba asked his eye in the sky.

"Nobody yet, but we will keep an eye out for anything suspicious or any slacking, Mr. Kaiba."

"See that you do." Kaiba and Atem walked out of the room as Atem saw something on the camera screen in Tristan's area. As it turns out, he received money from one of the employees.

'It looks like Tristan found his own way on getting the money for Serenity's gift.' As he saw, Kaiba took him out of his thoughts.

"Atem! I want the update on those new duel disks."

"Yes sir. It turns out that the design of the duel disk that you created into the blueprints came out perfect. Here is a picture of what the disk looks like." Atem showed the picture and Kaiba was impressed by his own design.

"Excellent, now I need to test out the virtual system module on it before more of them have been made. How many did the manufacturing department make?"

Atem read the records and replied "They only made two."

"Perfect. I'll be in the testing area with one of my interns to help me test them out. I shall leave you to finish your work before you head home today."

MEANWHILE

Serenity tried to do her very best not to get all emotional at her job. She was about to be done with her shift when she was watching Mai assisting one of their customers. While she was watching Mai do her job, her boss Gozaburo comes out of his office with another one of his female employees to check on his business.

"Serenity! I hope that we have got many customers today."

"Yes sir, we have got a lot of clothes sold today."

"Excellent, now I will let you leave since your shift is nearly over." Gozaburo turned to see Mai done with one of the customers. "Mai! I would like to see you in my office for a moment please."

Mai did what he said and followed him back to his office. Serenity was relieved that Gozaburo didn't find out that she was pregnant, let alone be noticeable yet. Serenity was finished with her shift as she was heading straight back home. Well, after she picks up something important from Téa.

As she left the mall, Serenity got to her car and drove to Téa's home. While Serenity was driving to her location, she started thinking to herself.

'I'm glad that Gozaburo hasn't found out I am pregnant. I need to keep it secret before word might get out to him or the wrong people.'

About 20 minutes passed and Serenity was in front of Téa's house to pick up her gift to Tristan. Téa was actually expecting Serenity as she came out of work. Serenity rang the doorbell and Téa opened the door.

"Serenity, I have your perfect present for Tristan. Come on inside. I found out my parents are out of town for two months, but come take a look at it."

She leads Serenity towards the kitchen to show her. It was a baby bottle, some baby clothes, a scrapbook and a digital wristwatch. Serenity was confused with these gifts.

"Are you sure these gifts will be good?"

Téa had a confident look on her face and explained. "I am positive Serenity. What you need to do is put these together in one present. But, the watch, you have to give it to Tristan first and then show him the other gifts in secrecy. It's perfect."

"Alright, I trust you, Téa." Serenity and Téa wrapped up the baby supplies up into a gift and then put the watch into a small box that it's the exact size.

"Serenity, by tomorrow, Tristan will blow his top when you tell him." said Téa.

As Serenity took the gifts and thanked her for the help, someone was watching from far away watching their actions.

"She's all alone, sir. I found out her parents won't be home for a while."

"Wonderful, tomorrow I shall go down there and visit young Téa and make her mine."

"Understood Mr. Marik. Over and out."

Whoa Nelly! What a damn plot twist! What did you think of the chapter, you guys? Did I make you guys go all "Oh shit!" at all? If I did, then that is a good thing. So, what plans does Marik intend to do with Téa and how will Tristan react to Serenity's pregnancy? I have no clue. If you wanna know, just leave them reviews and I will come on back with a new chapter for all you peeps. See You Next Time!
