"Talk"

'Thoughts'

Flashback/Dreams

...

Delicious aromas greeted him upon his entrance into the house.

She was here.

A smile graced his normally impassive face, and he felt his tiredness wash away. Throwing his coat and briefcase on the couch, he proceeded towards the kitchen, knowing the sought individual will be found there. His assumption was correct. There she was, stirring something in the pot, her back to him. From his spot, he let his eyes roam over her body. Long, shapely legs that were meant to wrap around his waist while their bodies moved in rhythm. A cute butt that he loved to squeeze, though it earned him a slap every time, along with a blush. Her small waist that often had him thinking if she ate anything at all, yet he never complained because he wouldn't want it any other way. It fit perfectly in his hands, the sensitive skin an erotic toy to play with. Her chest was not too big because she was still growing, but every time she wore tight fitting clothes, he couldn't keep his eyes off it. That swan like neck, that she loved to tilt to the side in a cute manner, was perhaps his favorite spot since it was where most of his actions went, up until now at least. But that soon would change.

Being extremely careful with his steps, he sneaked behind her and wrapped his arms around that enticing waist of hers. But she neither screamed in shock, nor gasped in surprise. Hell, she barely even tensed upon contact. Without looking over her shoulder, she smiled.

"You are back early today." Of course she knew who he was. No one else dared to touch her so intimately except him.

"A little birdie told me you were here early as well." He whispered in her ear, causing delicious shivers of pleasure to run down her spine. Her body shuddered ever so slightly against his, sending pleasure through his nerves.

"And I told him I'd bake him cookies if he kept quiet." She said, shaking her head. Behind her, he chuckled.

"Maybe he believes my reward for this information will be much greater than yours." Seto said, arms still wound around her.

"Too bad." She said, placing the pot off the stove and turning the stove off. "If he had shown some patience, he may have found out what else I have to offer." A warm feeling coursed through his body at her words, causing his mouth to move closer to her skin.

"Don't worry about him." He said, placing an open-mouth kiss on her neck. "I want all you have to offer." His hands roamed her body, one sneaking under her shirt to feel her tight stomach.

"Seto." She moaned, feeling his teeth graze over her sensitive flesh. "We have to stop this. Mokuba will be here soon."

"He won't." Seto whispered, lips moving towards her jaw line. "I let him go to the Game Shop as a reward for the information he provided me." His fingers brushed the underside of her breast, earning a sharp gasp from her. "No one will disturb us."

"Seto." Her voice was shaking, with desire he presumed, and he boldly placed his other hand on her hip, sliding it over the skin exposed by her mini skirt.

"The food… is… getting cold." She made an attempt to squirm away from him, but it only heightened his desire.

"I have no plans of getting to it anytime soon. For the moment, I intend to satisfy my hunger for you." Without a warning, he turned her around and placed his lips on hers. She gasped, providing him an opportunity to delve his tongue into her mouth. His hands moved to cup her butt, earning yet another gasp from her. He smirked. He was starting to love this sweet sound. Not wasting a single moment, he picked her up, using her butt as leverage, and placed her on the small island counter in their kitchen. It was a memorable place. It was where they had shared their first kiss, and now, their first—

"Seto." She had managed to pry her lips away from him and was making an attempt to speak, but he wouldn't allow it. He only wanted to hear her moan his name over and over again until that was the only word she could remember. He immediately attacked her neck, tugging at the soft flesh, earning another gasp from her. He smirked when he felt her place her hands on his chest, but was he was quite shocked to feel a push emitted from them. Suppressing a growl of frustration, he ran his fingers over her body, trying to coax her to comply to his wishes. But the girl was resolute in her attempt to get him to listen to her. Her hands gripped his roaming ones tightly, stopping his ministrations. He sharply turned his head to glare at her, and was met with her pale face.

"Seto." She spoke his name again, but not with desire and passion, as he wanted her to. Instead, it shook with uncertainty and fear. "Please… I… can't… do this." Her words fell heavily on him, like a ton of bricks.

"What… do you mean?" He asked, hands now still in her small ones.

"I… I don't think… we should…." He knew what she was trying to say, and for some reason, it caused his blood to boil.

"Why the hell not?" His hands curled into fists, and immediately she let go of them, as if they were hot metal rods.

"We… we are too young." She said, causing him to move an inch away from her. Embolden by his retrieval, she spoke in a confident voice. "We are too young. We have only been dating for a few months… 2 to be exact, and… this is too soon." Seto completely withdrew from her, eyes hidden by his brown locks. He had understood her words. Her hand reached to touch his cheek, turning his face to look her in the eye. "You understand, right?" Her voice carried fear and uncertainty. After a moment of pause, during which her heart stopped beating, he nodded his head.

"I understand." His voice was stiff, and strained. "I'll… I'll wait till you are ready." Overjoyed, she threw her arms around him. He, however, remained still.

"Thank you so much Seto. I knew you'd understand."

Seto drowned another glass of cheap bear down his throat and slammed the glass on the table. He was angry. He was beyond angry. He was Seto Kaiba. Never in his life had he been denied anything, whether he wanted it or not.

'The nerve of that girl.' He thought, rage filling his drunk mind. 'How dare she do this to me?' Another glass of cheap beer went down his throat. 'How dare she deny me? She says she's not ready. Then why does she flaunt her body in those ridiculously short clothes? Why?' He tried to think of a reason, but his sharp mind was acting quite slow due to the high level of alcohol in his system. But he was Seto Kaiba. Nothing could stop him. A little more focus, and he had a "reason."

'She was teasing him.' He growled. 'She was doing this on purpose. She was a slut who flaunted her body to get his attention, to tease him, to arouse him. And she had succeeded. God dammit she had succeeded. But what now? Yes, what now? His mind teased. What was her plan now?

'She was going to make him wait.' He concluded. 'She was going to have him wait and beg.' His eyes narrowed in realization. She was trying to control him. She was using his sexual desires to control him, The Seto Kaiba.

'How dare she?' His anger increased tenfold. 'She thinks she can manipulate me. Well, she is wrong. I don't need her.' Anger was replaced by arrogance and confidence. 'I am Seto Kaiba, I can find someone else to fulfill my desires.' He glanced around the club and smirked. There were plenty of women present that could satisfy his hunger, plenty who would jump at the opportunity, plenty who were ready. Smirking, he stretched and eyed a passing petite girl. She was small in height, possibly shorter than Tea. She had long waist-length hair. Form what he could see, she had a decent body too. Of course, it was nowhere near as sexy as Tea's but it would do for the night. From her posture and manners, he could tell that the girl was obviously young and naive, out of place in this club, and he knew she would be easily manipulated. Yes, she was the lucky girl. Having made up his mind, he stood up and approached her. She was standing alone, her back to him. So far, he still had to see her face, but who cared. He was only interested in her body, some specific body parts to be exact.

"Hey." He tapped her on the shoulder, causing her to turn around, and was shocked to see Joey's little sister standing before him. What the hell? What was she doing here? Did that mean the rest of the geek squad was here too?

"K… Kaiba?" She stuttered, frozen in fear. The look on her face was of a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Obviously, she wasn't expecting to be recognized in this dark and shady club, which meant the rest of the geek squad wasn't here either. Little Wheeler was sneaking out on her own.

"Look who we have here." He said in a mocking tone. "Little Wheeler. What are you doing here? Aren't you a bit young to be in a club like this?" Her face was deathly pale, and he was sure she was either going to vomit or faint, both of which would be quite amusing.

"I… I… Mai... gave me… a fake I.D." She confessed, still cowering in fear before him.

"Valentine." He said the name with a smirk. He knew she was like that. How she ended with the goody-two-shoes geek squad was beyond him. "She gave you a fake I.D. to sneak in here? I wonder if Wheeler knows." Her reaction was priceless. Her pupils shrunk in fear and she was begging him in an instant.

"Please don't tell big brother. He…. He'd never trust me again. He doesn't even let me go shopping alone. Please I'm begging you." He only laughed.

"Who would have known that you were such a bad girl, sneaking into R-Rated clubs behind your big brother's back."

"Please don't tell him. I'll… I'll do anything." The gears in his mind turned at her words. Anything she said, and he had the perfect thing in his mind. He would kill two birds with one stone. He would get his needs met and piss Wheeler off all at once.

"There is one thing you can do to keep my mouth shut." He leaned down to whisper in her ear. Her eyes widened at his words and she took a step back in fear. She looked very unsure and he knew she needed an incentive. Leaning down, he licked her ear lobe and whispered.

"I'll keep your dirty secret if you keep mine." He watched with satisfaction when her eyes rolled back in pleasure. Her reaction clearly stated she was virgin, untouched by any man. This was going to fun.

Serenity sat in the small café with Mai, fidgeting nervously. Mai calmly sipped her coffee, watching Serenity with interest.

"Want to tell me what's on your mind hun?" She finally said, looking at Serenity with piercing eyes. Serenity gulped and then spoke.

"I… I slept with Kaiba." Immediately, Mai's eyes went wide.

"Wh… what?" She controlled herself and hissed instead of yelling in shock. Serenity looked away.

"Yes. I… I did."

"When? How did this happen?"

"You remember when you gave me an I.D. for the club?" Serenity said, still looking at the floor.

"Yeah. That was 10 days ago. Why?" Mai said.

"Well… it was on that night. He.. he spotted me… and then… he asked if I would… you know. He said he won't tell Joey if I did it. So… I did."

"That was the only time?" Mai pressed, and Serenity shook her head.

"He… has been coming to me every day for the last 10 days Mai." Mai's eyes widened.

"Are you kidding me? That's impossible. Does Tea know?"

"No. He has been hiding it from her. He calls me every day on my cell to meet him at a hotel. I don't even know how he got my number. But he threatens to tell Joey if I won't go, and then… oh Mai, I don't know what to do." Serenity looked up to see a thoughtful expression on Mai's face.

"So, he's been coming to you for sex instead of Tea. And he is willing to blackmail you for it. Looks like he really wants you." A blush appeared on Serenity's face and Mai smirked. "And you like him a lot too.

"He is really good." Serenity said, turning red. "I mean, I have never been kissed before, but when he kisses, it just feels so good. And he… he makes me feel so good. I actually wait every night to get his call. I'm a horrible person."

"No." Mai said strictly. "This is not your fault. It's not his fault either. You two are attracted to each other." Mai declared. "And so Kaiba is seeking you. I think he knows that others will not be happy with this, especially Tea and Joey, and that's why he is being so secretive about this. But it can't go on like this."

"What do you mean?" Serenity asked fearfully. The idea of ending their trysts filled her with dread.

"Listen to me Serenity." Mai began, carefully watching the younger girl's face. "I think Kaiba sought you because Tea won't sleep with him." Serenity's eyes widened and then a sad expression crossed her face. "I know you both are enjoying this now, but where is this leading to? What exactly is it that you are feeling?" In the blink of an eye, Serenity spoke.

"I love him." Mai raised an eyebrow. "I think I love him Mai." Serenity said again. "I think that's why I let him touch me every night. I love him."

"Are you sure Serenity? Maybe it's because he is your first. Maybe it's just an infatuation. Maybe it's-." She was cut off by Serenity before she could say another word.

"I won't let any other man do this to me, just him. I don't want another man. I love him only." Mai sighed.

"And what about Kaiba? Does he feel the same?" Mai questioned.

"I… I don't know." Serenity admitted. "He gets really angry if I am late. And when he sees me, he just starts touching me everywhere, like he can't live without me, like he needs me. I see him every night, but every time, he acts like we have been apart for years. I think he loves me too."

"If that's the case, then maybe he does feel for you more than Tea." Mai said with a thoughtful expression. "But then, why doesn't he let Tea go? Why is he still with her?" At this, Serenity frowned.

"I don't know. We never really talk about anything when we are together. He comes from Kaiba Corp. and when we are done, he leaves soon after so Mokuba won't get worried. He never says anything about Tea." Mai sipped her now cold coffee, analyzing the situation in her mind. Seto Kaiba was dating Tea, but cheating on her with Serenity. Things between Kaiba and Serenity were on a higher level than between Kaiba and Tea. Serenity seemed like she really cared about Kaiba, and Kaiba was displaying a lot of interest in Serenity as well.

"Serenity." Mai said in a serious tone. "You have been sleeping with Kaiba for over a week now you say." Serenity nodded her head. "Are you going to see him tonight?" Serenity nodded her head again. "Okay." Mai said. "Then we must do this tonight."

"Do what?"

"Find out his real intentions." Serenity was confused. It was clear to her that Kaiba wanted her. Then what did Mai mean?

"Serenity, I have to admit, this is a well kept secret. I am a very observant person when it comes to these kind of things, and even I didn't suspect a thing. But I also know that sooner or later, this secret will be exposed. Someone will find out and let me tell you, hell will break lose. And you will be the only person at the receiving end of it. Kaiba will find a way out of it. I'm sure he will. He is a smart man. And you'll be left to take the heat, to take the stares, the whispers, the taunts. You'll be branded as a slut who cheated on her friend with her boyfriend, as a whore who slept with a man she barely knew. Do you understand what I'm trying to tell you?" Very weakly, Serenity nodded her head and Mai continued. "Everyone will sympathize with Tea and Joey, and you'll be left alone."

"But Kaiba will do something, won't he?" Serenity said desperately. "He'd defend me, right Mai?" The older woman sighed.

"That is what we want to find out. And we'll find out tonight." A determined glint appeared in her eyes. "Tonight when you go to see Kaiba, here's what you will do."

Seto moved around his table, gathering all of his documents. He had to hurry. He had already called little Wheeler to meet him at a new hotel, and knew she'd be waiting. But he didn't care about her waiting for a few extra minutes. He cared about his relief. Just thinking about what their meeting would bring him made him extremely aroused. For a second, he felt as if his body was shaking with desire. But he controlled himself. He had to walk through the lobby, and he didn't want people noticing a certain part of his body. People were right when they said sex was a good stress reliever.

After making sure everything was in check, he held his brief case in his hand and was about to step out when his cell phone rang. Growling, he answered it.

"What?" He didn't care if it was Mokuba on the other line. He needed relief and he needed it now.

"Seto." Great. It was Miss I'm-not-ready.

"What do you want? I'm busy." His voice was curt. There was a small pause before she spoke.

"I just wanted to know if you'd be coming home soon." Her voice was meek, as if she could see his distasteful scowl.

'Come home?' He thought. 'To what?'

"No. I still have business to take care of. I'd be home what it's taken care of." Without a goodbye, he hung up. He knew she'd be hurt by his attitude, but at that time, he didn't care. If she didn't care about him or about his needs, he wasn't going to bother with her either. Having wasted enough time on needless things, he stormed out of his office, his aura daring anyone else to even look at him.

He reached the hotel he had picked for the night. Every night for the past 10 days, he had chosen a different place for their activities. Most of the times, it had been some dark and shady nightclub. Those places were perfect since the lighting made it nearly impossible for anyone else to recognize them, more importantly him. A few times, he had chosen a hotel, but only when he knew he wanted to spend more than just 10 minutes with her. It really depended on his day. If he had a stressful day and felt like he needed to relax completely, he chose a hotel. Otherwise a club it was.

But tonight, he was planning to stay for a while. The day had been quite busy, and he was looking forward to tonight. He swiftly walked towards the room he had rented for the night and opened the door. He had sent her the key earlier so he knew she'd be inside, waiting. And inside waiting she was. His body went stiff from arousal when he saw her. He had told her to either wear nothing or very little clothing when she was in a room with him. It took away the time and effort to lick the outside to get to the creamy center. And to his wishes, she was only wearing a shirt and her underwear. Immediately, he threw his brief case on the floor and grabbed her.

His hands grabbed her arms pulling her closer to his body and he licked her neck. She moaned out loud at his ministrations, but this was just the beginning. His frantic hands reached for her shirt and lifted it over her head, revealing her bra covered breasts. His mouth went dry at the sight. Sure she was no comparison when it came to Tea's body, but Tea's body wasn't available. So he had to make use of this one. His fingers reached for the clasp of her bra when she moved away.

Great. What had gotten into her? Now that he thought about it, she hadn't latched onto him like a rabid animal, touching and kissing his skin like she always did.

"What the hell are you doing?" He hissed and made a gesture to grab her, but she squirmed away. Cursing, he moved towards her. He was highly aroused, and was in no mood to play games.

"Kaiba." She said in a small voice. "Please, listen to me."

"Why the hell would I do that?" He growled and tried to grab her breast, but she moved her arms to cover them.

"I have to talk to you." Realizing that force was only going to get him unwanted attention from the hotel staff, and most likely, a scandal, he stood patiently.

"Fine." He spat. "Talk. But hurry up. I don't have a lot of time." She took a deep breath and began speaking.

"Kaiba, we have been doing this for over a week, but I still don't know where we stand." He grunted and replied.

"Just get to the damn point." His sexual frustrations were taking him over, and he knew it wouldn't be long before he lost all control and slammed her against a wall.

"Why are you still with Tea?" Her words caught him off guard.

"Why do you care?" He said in a surprisingly offended voice.

"You sleep with me, yet she is called your girlfriend."

"No one knows we are together except Mokuba and the geek squad." He said. He had kept his relationship with Tea a secret to avoid attention and media hounding. At that time, the concern had been for Tea's well being, but he didn't want to think about that right now.

"Yes, and they are the only people I care about. If someone finds out, then what will happen to me?" He grunted, signaling that it was of no concern to him.

"I'll be the bitch, the traitor, the slut. And I don't want to be thought of as that." Her words caused him to look at her with an expressionless face.

"What do you want?" He knew she wanted something from him. It was better she tell him now and save him the trouble of figuring it out himself.

"I want you to break up with her." Immediately, he stepped towards her, a menacing look on his face.

"Who the hell are you to tell me if I should stay with her or leave her?" How dare she tell him what to do?

"I… I care about you." She said meekly.

"And I don't care about what you care about." He said carelessly. "I paid good money for this room, and I intend to use it for all it's worth. So stop all this drama." Serenity stared at him with a hurt and sad look in her eyes, and then took out a cell phone. He saw her dial a number and he wondered who she was calling. But she didn't talk. She held the phone in her hand and soon after, there was a knock on the door. His eyes narrowed in anger.

"Who is out there?" He demanded. What was she doing? Serenity opened the door to reveal Mai.

"What the hell are you doing here?" He said in an irritated voice.

"Serenity told me everything." She said and he rolled his eyes. That much was obvious.

"And I suppose all her doing tonight was your brilliant idea?" Mai nodded.

"Yes. I think it's unfair the way you are using Serenity."

"It doesn't involve you Valentine, so butt out." He said curtly and Mai huffed.

"Oh it concerns me all right. She is my friend. I love this girl like a sister, and I won't stand for you using her and then discarding her."

"You don't know anything about my intentions." Seto said plainly.

"I don't want to know either." Mai replied in the same tone. "I know you want Serenity. It's written all over your face. But if you really want her, then why are you still with Tea? Why bother with her? Why not just break up with her?"

"I thought Tea was your friend too." Seto pointed out dryly.

"She is. But in this situation, I am on Serenity's side. If this is revealed, the damage done to Serenity would be far greater than the damage to Tea because of your break up. I have weighed both sides already Kaiba. Tea is a strong girl. She will recover from this easily. Plus, it's not like you guys have done anything else other than kissing. But with Serenity things are different. You have changed her from a little girl to a woman. You have taken her virginity, and if you discard her like an old toy, she'll break. She'll never recover from this. No girl will." She turned towards Serenity and motioned her towards her discarded clothes. Serenity began dressing. Mai turned back to Kaiba and continued.

"If you really want Serenity, then break up with Tea. You can't have both girls Kaiba. You have to choose one." She turned towards a fully dressed Serenity, grabbed her arm and began heading out of the room.

"Only one girl Kaiba." She said over her shoulder. "Choose wisely." With that, the door was slammed shut, leaving a very angry Kaiba behind.

Seto entered the quiet mansion late at night. The light were out, and he knew Tea had put Mokuba to bed. But was she asleep too? He put his brief case on the couch and the lights flicked on, revealing a sleepy looking Tea getting off the couch.

"Oh, you're back." She said, rubbing her eyes. He grunted, annoyed at presence. Why the hell was she awake? Was she keeping tabs on him, marking the time he left and came back?

"Why are you awake?" She seemed hurt at his words.

"I wanted to make sure I was there if you needed anything."

"I'm not a child." He nearly yelled, causing her to flinch. "I can take care of myself. She only stood there, staring at him in hurt and confusion. He could see her eyes glistening and he braced himself for the waterfall of tears. But to his surprise, not a single drop came.

"Did you eat dinner?" She asked again.

"Yes." He replied through gritted teeth. Taking a hint, she began walking up the stairs. But before she disappeared in the darkness, he heard her whisper.

"Seto, what happened to you?"

He grunted. She spoke as if she cared. If she did, he wouldn't be in this position, being blackmailed for sex by a Wheeler. And it was all her fault. All hers.

He knew he had treated her very badly tonight, but he couldn't help it. He was sexually frustrated, and watching her stand in front of him with those tousled hair, those droopy eyes, wearing tiny shorts covered by his over sizes shirt, just made things worse.

A tease. She was doing this on purpose. This act of caring was part of her plan. But he wouldn't let it succeed. He walked towards his bedroom and threw off his clothes. One look at his body told him he had needed tonight. Sighing, he fell on his bed, but sleep won't come. He was so used to being extremely relaxed from the nights before, so tonight, his body felt like it was made of rocks. He rolled over in bed, the contact of sheets on his body not helping the situation at all.

Dammit. He wanted to end this. He wanted to end this now. He couldn't live like this. He couldn't spend every night like this because of some girl that was teasing him on purpose. It wasn't worth it. Picking up the phone, he dialed a familiar number. He had made his decision already.
