Hey guys! Natalie here this time! Here's my shot at writing a chapter. Hannah did fantastic with the first one and I hope I can live up to that level. And the great thing about this one is that I get to write Alissa in this one. Goody. But hey, this is a collab so I'm not completely alone. Anyways, enough of my complaints or whatever you want to call them, read on fellow viewers!


Alissa released a yawn as she made her way down the street. I am so not a morning person, she thought as she turned a corner. She came across the local coffee shop and entered through the doorway. Upon seeing that there was probably ten people in front of her in line, a frown settled on her lips. Shit. Just what I needed.

Seeing that she had time to spare, she grabbed her cell phone out of her purse and began to punch in a number. She waited for the ringing to stop until she heard a cold voice on the other end of the phone. "What is it?" Seto questioned. "I'm busy."

"Well, good morning to you too, Asshole." She greeted. "Just for that, looks like someone isn't going to get any coffee."

"Good luck getting into the building then. I doubt my security team will let you in without an excuse."

"Don't make me punch you in the dick."

"Hm, have fun trying to do that over the phone."

"Whatever. Do you want a coffee or not?"

"What else do you think would keep me awake?"

"You know, a simple 'yes' would've sufficed."

She heard him grunt on the other end.

"Fine. I'll be over with your damn coffee in about ten minutes."

Alissa ended the call and looked up at the line in front of her. There were only two people in front of her now. She tapped her foot anxiously as she waited to get to the front of the line. The woman in front of her stepped away from the counter, meaning that Alissa was next. Finally!

"Hello ma'am," the girl at the counter greeted. "What would you like today?"

"Um, I'll take an Iced Caramel Macchiato and a black coffee. And could you put a little bit of milk and honey in the black?"

"Sure thing."

"Thanks."

Alissa drummed her fingers along the counter as she waited. The girl soon returned with a coffee tray holding the two beverages. She paid the girl and took the tray. "Have a nice day." The clerk said.

Alissa nodded and strode over to one of the empty tables. She set the tray down and grabbed her wallet from her purse. She put the change she got from the clerk into her wallet and put it back into her bag. She readjusted her purse over her shoulder and turned around to grab her tray. She tensed when she felt her shoulder hit someone. Before she knew it, there was a hot liquid splattered against her shirt.

She felt it touch her skin and jumped slightly. "Fuck!" she yelled.

The surrounding people in the shop looked at her at her sudden expletive. Alissa immediately shut her mouth and stared to the person who had spilt the beverage on her. She looked to the girl who stood in front of her whose hazel eyes were now widened by her sudden action. "Oh my gosh, I am so sorry!" the girl apologized. "I'll go grab some napkins."

The light-haired brunette rushed over to the counter and came back with a small stack of napkins. "Here, let me help." She said as she tried getting the napkins to absorb her spilled tea. "I'm sorry about this."

"It's alright." Alissa said. She grabbed one of her own napkins and pressed it against her shirt. "It was my bad. I should've watched who was around me."

"Oh, no, it was my fault. I wasn't watching where I was walking."

"Okay, if we start arguing over whose fault it is, then that'll be some really pointless shit. Let's just say it's both our faults."

The brunette smiled. "Alright. Will your shirt be okay?"

"Yeah. I'll just need to wash it later."

"That's good. My name's Sakura."

"I'm Alissa."

"It's nice to meet you." Sakura blinked when she heard a noise coming from her bag. "Oh, hold on a second." She opened up her bag and shuffled around to find her cell phone. Alissa glanced to her bag and saw a particular book in there. She blinked a couple of times to see if she had read the title correctly. Sakura glanced at her phone briefly and then put it back into her bag. "Sorry about that."

"It's cool. Hey, that book you have, is that Jekyll and Hyde?"

"Oh, yeah, I just finished it last night."

"Awesome! I love that one!"

"Yeah, I love it too! I really love how they portrayed Jekyll." Sakura took a quick glance towards the line at the front counter. There was practically no line. "Well, I guess I should get myself another tea because my last one spilled on you."

"Do you want me to pay for it?" Alissa asked.

Sakura looked back at her shocked. "Oh, no, you don't have to do that. If anything, I should be paying for your coffee because it's probably cold by now."

"Oh well. How about I pay for half of yours?"

"Only if I get to pay for half of yours."

"Fine."

Sakura walked up to the counter and got herself another tea while both girls exchanged their money. Alissa grabbed her coffee tray and the duo headed out of the shop. They headed down the street together sipping their drinks. Sakura looked over at Alissa. "So, why did you start reading Jekyll and Hyde?" she asked.

"I was in a musical for it once. So, I heard there was a book and decided to read it."

Sakura swallowed a sip of her tea. "Oh yeah, I read that there was a musical not too long ago. How is it?"

"It's fantastic! You should see it sometime."

"Yeah, I'll have to." Sakura glanced to the coffee tray in Alissa's hands. "So, if you don't mind my asking, who's the other coffee for?"

"It's for my boyfriend."

"That was nice of you to get him a coffee."

"He's an asshole though."

Sakura was a bit taken aback by this. "Then why do you date him?"

"Because he's not always an ass."

Sakura let out a light laugh. A smile remained planted on her lips as the duo walked together. Suddenly, the girls heard a loud yell from behind them. "Move it!" the person yelled.

Both of the girls were shoved aside as someone ran into them. Alissa hunched over and steadied the coffee tray in her hands seeing that it was seconds away from falling to the ground. Sakura nearly fell onto her knees, but was able to balance herself in time. The two girls looked up to see the blonde woman in front of them straightening her skirt. "What the hell was that?" Alissa said.

The woman began to comb her fingers through her hair. "You were in my way."

"You could've walked around us." Sakura added.

The blonde shot her a look. "Look princess, I'm in a rush here."

"Then why don't you go be a bitch-ass somewhere else?" Alissa retorted. She glanced to the woman's nametag pinned to her blouse. The woman's name was Saeko Ichii. That's a stupid name. Her first name is pronounced just like the word 'psycho'.

"Listen you two, shouldn't you be in daycare? It's obvious you're not mature enough to handle the real world." Saeko said.

"Shouldn't you be in a mental ward? It's obvious that you're not fit to be in society." Alissa smirked as she mocked her tone.

"Oh, where's your mother? You know you have a stain on your shirt, Sweetie."

Alissa glared at the blonde and began to ball her hand into a fist. Oh, she did not just call me that. I am not a fucking child. She flung her fist towards the blonde, but Saeko quickly took a step backwards, dodging it. Alissa growled under her breath seeing that her hit had missed. The blonde straightened herself and glared at Alissa. "Hm, clearly this is not where adults hang out." She said.

Alissa's eyes were burning with anger. "Look, bitch. You're just asking for a trip to the hospital."

"I don't have time to babysit you two. I have a job to get to."

"Go suck a thick one!" Alissa shouted as the blonde walked away from the duo. Alissa went to run after the woman, but Sakura held her back.

"Alissa, stop." She said. "She's not worth getting worked up over."

Alissa released a long sigh. "Jeez, what crawled up her ass and died?"

Sakura shrugged. "She obviously has some kind of attitude problem." She looked down at her bag and grabbed her phone. She turned it on and glanced at the time. "Well, Alissa, I guess this is where we part. I have to go return my book. I'm sure I'll see you sometime else, and thank you for walking with me."

"It's no problem. And yeah, I'll see ya."

Sakura smiled and headed across the street. Alissa grinned to herself and headed towards the Kaiba Corp. building. Within ten minutes, she was already walking through the front doors. She headed into the elevator and waited until she reached the young CEO's office. Upon opening the door to the office, she saw the tall brunet sitting at his computer typing away. "Hey." She greeted. "Here's your coffee."

"Thanks." Seto said taking the cup. He took a sip of it, but nearly spit it right back out. He forced himself to swallow despite his hatred for it. "This coffee is cold."

"I don't see how that's my problem, Rich Boy."

"Why is it cold?" he asked sternly glancing towards her.

"I kind of got held up at the shop."

"And the stain?"

"I ran into another girl and her tea spilled on me."

"How very clever of you." The sarcasm was practically dripping from his lips.

"Shut it, Asshole."

Seto rolled his eyes and turned back towards his computer. He proceeded with his typing and checked through that day's reports. He could feel Alissa's gaze watching him work, but he plainly ignored her. "Really?" she asked.

He glanced up at her. "What?"

"So, I come all the way here to deliver you coffee and to spend some time with you, and you don't even acknowledge me?"

"Alissa, I run a company. You can't expect me to-"

"Just shut up and kiss me."

She fisted the collar of his shirt and pulled him closer to her until his lips were on hers. The kiss soon turned passionate as Alissa began to thread her fingers through his dark hair and Seto moved his hands to hold her small waist.

Little did they know that they were being watched from the security control room. An unconscious security officer lied in the corner of the room flat on his stomach. The woman in the chair crossed her arms in front of her chest at the sight she saw. She kept her eyes fixed on the one screen and zoomed in on the couple. She looked carefully at the dark-haired girl being seen on the camera. It's that idiot from earlier today. She's not fit for Seto. She scrolled over to the computer beside her and paused the image on the screen. She grinned to herself as she began to type at the keyboard. Let's see how that bitch likes what I have planned.


Well, let's see how this goes. Yep, Saeko is getting interesting indeed. But, it was really fun to try my hand at writing Alissa! Her character is so entertaining! Anyways, the fabulous FutureStar27 (or Hannah) will be writing the next chapter. Give us some feedback and we'll see you next time!
