Memories – part two- Tea Gardner

Last time

We were in Yami's memories we saw what happened to him, and we saw him confess he still loved Tea. This time we will see the story from a different perspective...

- - - - - - - - - - - -

Few minutes earlier…

Tea walked threw the mansion. She was looking for Yami's room. She wanted to talk to him and find out what happened. She knew he kept something secret from all of them. She saw Jean walking to a room maybe two corridors away and decided to check there. When she came she stopped herself. The doors were closed and only muffled voices came to her ears. She heard almost nothing but silent talking. There were long silent moments from time to time until she finally decided to open the doors. The picture there hit her harder then she might have thought at that moment. Yami and Jean were on the sofa, Yami holding Jean in his arms tenderlly.

"What will be the baby's name?" He asked. 'Baby's name…'

"If we get a girl her name will be Jasmine, and if we get a boy his name will be Yami." Tea stood there dumbfounded. The word 'baby' echoed in her head. 'It can't be'

"Thank you." the words came from Yami's mouth. She closed the doors silently ,and left not wanting to hear anything else. As she walked to her room she thought about many things. Memories flooded her. Memories from the first time she went out with Yami and when she realized she had deep feelings for the pharaoh. She came to her room and went to the window. There she saw her daughter playing with some other child. It was a beautiful picture. Her mind was far away. She remembered the day when they found out who Yami actually was…

Flashback

'He looks so in thought' Tea was thinking for herself while sipping on her strawberry shake. Yami sat before her, looking out the window. She studied his features. He was so mature, looking about 18-19 years old. His violet eyes showed wisdom and confusion. She knew she had to do something fast, if she wanted to have him out of that mood. Suddenly it came to her.

"Yami I just remembered what we could do. There is this new exhibit in the museum. It's about ancient Egypt. And look, this mark here is the same as the one on your millennium puzzle."

"That could be interesting, Tea."

"We could go and take a look. Maybe it could help you find out something about your past." His face became grim and his eyes distant again. "Or we could go and do something else." She said and looked aside. Yami noticed she became sadder.

"You must excuse me Tea. Since the day someone took the puzzle from Yugi I feel like a stranger in my own skin. I have this constant feeling something big is coming and it frightens me not knowing what." he said and looked threw the window. Tea sighed.

"I know how you feel. I have this feeling all the time." She said

"You do?" He asked and she nodded her head.

"I too don't now what future holds for me. It is scary not to know what will happen tomorrow, what will change, what will disappear. But I have a dream and I follow it, and my dream is to be a dancer."

"That's a nice dream, Tea."

"I know. Maybe one day I discover dancing is not for me and I do something else from my life but for now it's what I want. It doesn't matter if you don't know what future holds, what matters is that you follow your dreams and without fright face tomorrow. Well, I inspired myself! Let's go find to what future holds for us today."

End flashback

Tea laughed for herself. She was a totally different person then. She was always laughing and smiling and never had a thing on her mind. She never realized she loved Yami until the time Yugi was trapped and he had to free him. After that she tried to realize what to do to show the pharaoh she loved him. Time passed and she was convinced she could have never had something with him. After they visited ancient Egypt it became even more painful for her to love him, so she backed off and tried to heal her broken heart. She never realized when she had started to have feelings for Seto. She never knew when she started to 'love' him. Maybe it was her mind playing with her after loosing all her fait in love. The day Yami separated from Yugi and when she saw him in bed something stirred in her but Seto made her believe it was nothing but friendship in her for Yami. When he proposed to her and when she accepted she never realized what a man was Seto Kaiba. Her memories flashed with that evening when she and Seto went to Yugi and said they were getting married.

Flashback

She was bout to exit the car when Seto grabbed her hand and pulled her back. His lips smashed against hers and she broke into laughed against him.

"What was that for?" She asked when they parted.

"I don't need an excuse to kiss you, do I?" he asked. His eyes shined with possessiveness and something more. She smiled and kissed him again. They came out and she knocked on Yugi's doors. Soon enough he opened them.

"Tea, Seto? What are you two doing here?" Tea hugged him laughing.

"Call everyone her! Seto and I have to tell you something really important." Soon enough everyone but Yami was here.

"Where is Yami?" Asked Seto. It was weird for him to ask but Tea was so happy she didn't even notice.

"He doesn't answer his cell phone. I think he has something really important to do. He'll be home soon." Tea fell in thought. Yami was acting weard since the day they came back form Egypt. He always avoided gatherings and never was here. He was always out. She soon threw that of her mind and happiness came back.

"Come on guys! Speak up!" Joey yelled.

"I wanted to wait for Yami to arrive but it seams he won't be here so…" She said.

"What!" Joey yelled.

"We're getting married!" She said. Words of congratulations flew when the doors opened to reveal Yami standing there with his bangs covering his eyes.

"Hey, Yami! We didn't hear you enter." Said Yugi. Something was strange. Yami didn't even stir.

"I just came." It was as if he pushed that out.

"So you don't know the good news?" Seto asked.

"What news?" His voice was monotone and cold.

"Sato and Tea are getting married!" Yelled Grandpa. Yami just smiled.

"I'm happy for you. Now excuse me. I have to go and change. Good night."

"I wonder what happened to him?" Asked Joey.

"He's probably just very tired. Don't worry, we'll see him tomorrow. Now let's celebrate!"

End flashback

Tea found that weird now that she remembered everything. That day Yami was different. He would always look her in the eyes and say what he hda to say, but that night, after he heard she and Seto are getting married, he didn't look up,his smile was unreal, as if it was acted. Her memories filled with the fear she felt when she found out he had disappeared. It was awful when Yugi told her Yami was missing. They couldn't find him anywhere and with time passing they gave up. After they realized Yami was gone her marriage with Seto went downhill. He was drinking and always beating her. He raped her few times. She had to give an act to everyone and thank God no one realized what happened until one day six years ago she was at Yugi's in one of her secret visits to them. Everyone was there and somehow her sleeves went up and they saw the bruises and cuts...

Flashback

"What happened to you, Tea?" Yugi asked when he saw the bruises. Tea pulled her sleeves down trying to cover her hands.

"Nothing, I fell down the stairs." She said. Yugi came to her and took her hands. Joey, Tristen and Duke were there too. Yugi took her sleeves and pulled them up. In the next moment Joey, Tristen and Duke had murderous looks on their faces and Yugi's brows narrowed. She never saw such a look in his eyes.

"He beats you, doesn't he?" Yugi said threw clenched teeth. She could no longer hide her tears. She fell in Yugi's hands and cried. The four guys comforted her the best way they could. She was always there for them and they were always there for her. Soon enough she told them everything. How Seto changed not to long after the wedding, how he beat her, raped her and only had her with him because of his reputation. She had to act as if she was happy with him, when the only person who made her life easier was Mokuba. He was on her side and when he was there he would do anything to keep Seto as far away from her as he could. Mokuba loved her like and older sister.

"You have to leave him, Tea. He could kill you next time..." Said Yugi.

"I can't Yugi. He will kill me if I try to run or anything else." She said. It took her quite time to explain the boys why she couldn't leave Seto and finally they understood. She had to leave and they made her promise something before she left.

"Promise us you will call us if anything happened?" said Yugi.

"We will be there in a second." said Joey. Tristen and Duke nodded. Tea smiled sadly.

"All right..." But that night something happened. Seto came home drunk as always. He came to their room and saw Tea sitting on the bed. She didn't even have the time to do anything when he ran, took her hand and threw her against the wall.

"How dare you cheat on me wrench!!" She tried to stand up but filed.

"What are you talking about?" He slapped her across the face.

"Don't speak while I don't let you, you filthy whore!" She whimpered.

"I saw you today. You were at that little idiots place, weren't you!" He yelled and slapped her again. She was on her knees.

"He's my friend. We were just having a talk!"

"A talk that lasted four hours!!!!"

"I'm sorry it won't happen again!" She yelled. Seto had a menacing smirk on his face.

"Oh it won't, I'll take care of it." He said and slammed his leg against her ribcage. Her scream filled the house.

"I'll take care you never again walk out of this house, you wrench!" He yelled. Tea never knew who sent Mokuba to rush in, in that moment, but she could never thank him enough. The doors swung open and Mokuba ran in to find Tea on the verge of blacking out and Seto ready to punch her again. He ran to them and sent Seto to the wall with one precise hit in his jaw. Seto blacked out and Mokuba took Tea in his hands. She looked at him blood tackling in the corner of her lips. Her eyes closed and she fell limp against him. When she woke up she found herself in the hospital wing. The guys were sleeping where ever there was place and Mokuba sat beside her holding her hand. She stirred and Mokuba jumped awake. He smiled to her.

"Thank God you're awake." He said.

"Thank god you came in time." She answered. Her voice was weird but she didn't care. She had all her friends with her and that was all that mattered. Suddenly Mokuba looked saddened.

"What happened?" She asked.

"I don't know how to say it. I wouldn't wonder if you wouldn't like what I have to say to you." She squeezed his hand and looked at him reassuringly.

"I'll make it." He smiled. He took a deep breath and nodded to himself.

"The doctors made few tests on you. They said... They said you're pregnant..."

End flashback

Tea smiled for herself. After she discovered she was pregnant she decided to leave Seto. After they were on court he was left with nothing. His brother Mokuba is the owner of Kaiba Corporation and she is one of the council members. Also she is the owner if, God forbid, something happens to Mokuba. Suddenly her memories filled with Yami's face and she remembered what happened at the day of the court, when the judge said his final words. She remembered the pain Seto inflicted to her when he said something that haunted her 'till today...

Flashback

They were exiting the court. Mokuba and Yugi held each of her hands and Joey, Tristen and Duke walked around her keeping the press away. Suddenly Seto's voice came to her and everyone stopped.

"You wanted to know why I married you? Well fine, you'll find out! I wanted to make that foul, Yami, jealous! He was always better, but I could have the one thing he could never get. You." Silence filled the air. Something stirred in Tea's chest and she looked at him disbelievingly.

"What are you talking about?"

"You loved Yami and he loved you, then. I had the only thing he ever wanted. I won. It seamed I would be able to enjoy the victory, but the coward ran away. I will have my revenge one day, and you won't be able to stop me. You, your brat and Yami will suffer!" He yelled while police took him away...

End flashback

Tea sighed and lay on the bed.

"You were wrong about one thing, Seto. Yami never loved me." She whispered to herself.

"He never loved me, but... I loved him... And I still do..."
