A few months had gone by and Teas stomach had grown tremendously, she was now six months pregnant.
Since the payback against the Jenkins Brothers, Joey and Setos friendship had also grown and they managed to deal with each others presence better than ever. Everyone had gotten to know the true Seto Kaiba, and all of them really did like him.
As it turned out, this Seto Kaiba was actually a kind and sincere guy. It just took some time and some trust for him to feel secure enough to come out of his shell.
The entire group was in the pool at the Kaiba mansion, having a blast.
"Ayy Seto, throw da beach ball ova my way!" Joey yelled across the pool, Seto responded with a swift punch to the beach ball, ending in Joeys demise as it hit him straight in the face, sending everyone into a fit of laughter.
The laughter soon came to a halt as Tea shushed her friends.
"Guys guys guys! The baby's kicking!" She yelled
Seto was first out of the pool as he sat in the same beach chair as his girlfriend and brought her into a gentle embrace, placing both hands on her stomach.
"Looks like our little girl wants out." Seto whispered into her ear.
Tea smiled as she felt the child kicking in her stomach, she rested her head on Kaibas shoulder.
"I love her so much." She smiled.
"Ayy Im next!" Joey yelled.
"No way dude, you got to feel last time, its my turn! I want to feel!" Tristan argued.
"Both of you can feel! Why do you have to argue about everything! Now get your asses over here and put your damn hands on my belly!" Tea demanded, as her hormones took the best of her
"Yes ma'am!" Joey and Tristan said in unison as they quickly ran to her side to feel their niece kicking.
Yugi also came to her side and placed a hand on her stomach "So, are you ready for graduation tomorrow?" Yugi asked.
Tea pursed her lips at this question "Well im definitely ready to graduate, but im sure a lot of people will judge me for this." She placed a hand on her belly.
"But I am full ready for whatever they have to say to me. This little girl is a blessing and I wouldn't change a thing, they can say what they want." She said with pride.
"Were all here for you too Tea." Yugi said.
"I don't think they will say much, finding out that Seto Kaiba is the father." Yugi said, giggling the slightest bit.
"Yeah, that's true. More to be said behind my back though." Tea replied, "This is more than just graduation though, the school is going to found out that Seto and I are having a child together, the whole city of Domino will know soon enough. Maybe I should've just stayed in school instead of beginning homeschool. Then at least it wouldn't have been such a huge surprise." Tea pondered on this for a moment.
"Either way, tomorrows the big day. Were graduating guys!" Seto yelled happily, throwing his arms in the air, making everyone else cheer as well.
Tea rested into her beach chair as she rubbed her swelled belly.
"Tomorrows the big day baby girl" She whispered to her little girl, in which she got a kick in return making Tea giggle.
And tomorrow couldn't have come soon enough. It was the big day and everyone was packed into Setos limo, on their way to the school dressed in their robes, Teas belly easily spotted through hers.
The entire school packed into the auditorium, and it was obvious by the looks on some of the students faces that they'd seen Tea, names were called out, and speeches were made. Finally it came to Teas name, and to her dismay she was pushed to make a speech being the president of student council.
As she made her way onto the stage, a few gasps were heard through the crowd and every ones eyes widened a considerable amount.
"So here we finally are, weve dreamed about this day since we started school and were here guys, we really did it. And I don't know about all of you, but these have been the best years of my life. Not only have I learned a lot about myself, but Ive made so many great friends and I have so many great memories that I can never forget. I wish all of you the best of luck for your future, just keep in mind, that anything is possible!" Tea ended her speech and the graduating class clapped for her.
As she made her way back to her seat snickers and whispers could be heard all around, all eyes were on her as she took her seat beside her boyfriend Seto and took his hand into hers.
A few more gasps were heard and even the word "whore" was blurted out by some ignorant cheerleader.
Tea didn't care what they thought of her though. It did of course hurt to be called those names, but she knew she wasn't a whore and so did her friends. And that's all that mattered to her.
After a few more hours, the ceremony was almost over, but one more speech was to be made by the lead cheerleader and biggest bitch in school. Claira Matthews.
The preppy blonde hopped up the steps and onto the stage, a pom pom in each hand.
"Hello everybody!" She began in her much too bubbly voice.
"Okay, So I would just like to say that I completely agree with what Tea Gardner said earlier, this is really the best years of our lives. Were going to remember this forever. The friends we made, the things we did, all of it!."
A wide smile came to the too innocent looking girl on stage.
"If I could pick one thing that Ive learned, that I think will go with me for the rest of my life, its this: Even if you think you truly know a person, theres that small chance that you may not know them at all. For instance, Tea Gardner." The blonde paused for a moment and looked straight to Tea.
Tea immediately knew what was going to be said, in front of the entire school. She felt Setos hand tighten around hers as he whispered in her ear "We can leave right now Tea." He quickly said.
"No, I want to hear what she has to say." Tea said angrily, with determination.
"For years, I thought that Tea Gardner was some straight A student, who always turned her work in on time and her bed time was eight o clock. Im sure we all thought that about her. But little did we all know that Ms. Tea Gardner is actually a Gold Digging Whore, who managed to get The Seto Kaiba to knock her up so that hed be forced to funnel money into her pathetic life!" Claira blurted with anger.
Two teachers immediately went on stage and escorted her out of the auditorium, but they couldnt stop her from yelling every slanderous name she could, for the entire schools ears to hear.
The principal quickly fumbled his way onto the stage and took the mic. "Well I do apologize for that outburst, especially to you Ms. Gardner. Its about time to wrap things up here. Good luck for your future everyone! You will all be missed!" He smiled and waved to the entire senior class as he too made his exit.
Not much was said on the ride home, a few supportive comments were made by her friends, threatening to find Claira and teach her a lesson. But Tea waved all of those comments away and collected her thoughts.
Her eyebrows furrowed as she played the girls speech back in her head. 'Gold Digger'.. That was the word that stuck out the most. She knew that shed hear a lot, but even with Seto being a multi- Billionaire, shed never even thought anyone would say that about her.
Each of her friends were dropped off at their homes and finally when it was just her and Seto she looked him in the eye and became very serious.
"Seto can I ask your something?" Tea questioned to her boyfriend.
"Whats up babe?" Seto asked softly.
"And please be honest with me on this.. But.. Have you ever thought.. That.. That I was only with you for your money? Or that this child was conceived so that youd be forced to stay with me?" Tea got straight to the point.
Seto looked at her like she was some kind of idiot.
"Tea are you serious? When we first began to truly get to know each other, you had just been raped and you were in a fragile state, if anything I thought that you were only with me because I rescued you and you were slightly traumatized by the whole thing, and the only reason I even thought that was that it was so hard to believe that a guy like me could be with such an amazing girl like you." Seto replied, making a face as if all of this should've been obvious to her.
Tears began to form in the corners of Teas eyes "So you're saying that you absolutely.. never thought for a second.." She paused for a moment as a sniffle escaped her "that I was coming after you for your money.." She struggled a bit to finish the sentence.
"No Tea, never. The entire time that weve been together, the only thing ive managed to think is how lucky I am to have you in my life. You are the most amazing person in the world and even through all the hardships you've been through, many of them because of me. You've managed to keep your spirits up and stay happy. I love you so much, and you make everything about my life ten times better." He paused for a moment and fumbled with something in the pocket in his shirt, under his robes.
"That's why I wanted to give you this.. I was… I was going to give it to you later tonight, but I think that maybe now is a good time too.. So umm, Tea, Will you marry me?" Seto asked awkwardly and hopefully.
Tea looked at the small diamond ring that hed pulled out of his pocket, she was in complete shock, speechless. All she could do was stare at the gorgeous diamond.
What finally brought her back to reality was Setos voice "T- Tea?" He asked, quite bashfully.
"Huh? What? Oh! Yes Yes of course Ill marry you!" She squealed in happiness and through her arms around him.
A huge toothy smile came to both their lips as they tightly embraced the other. Ending the hug, Seto brought his lips to hers, and gave her a deep passionate kiss to seal the deal.
The kiss didn't end until they were at the kaiba mansion, inside their bedroom.
Seto looked at the diamond ring on Teas finger "It looks perfect on you." He whispered to her before tracing small kisses from the back of her ear and down her neck. She moaned in pleasure from the tingling sensation he left behind after each kiss.
Already undressed, the two shared the passionate moment, holding each other as best as they could with her stomach being so big. The two giggled in delight as they placed sweet kisses all over one another's bodies. As Seto made his way down her stomach, leaving kisses of course the entire way, he rubbed up and down her belly, slowly but surely he made his way to her thighs, gently massaging them, and teasing her the slightest bit as he nibbled at spots on her that were just for him.
Trying to contain herself, but failing, she let a few small moans escape her lips, soon becoming slightly louder, more intense moans as he placed two fingers inside of her woman hood and massaged the wet opening.
Removing his fingers from inside of her, he brought himself down on her, flicking and tonguing her swelled clitoris.
Waves of pleasure came over Teas entire being as her back arched from pure intensity of the moment. Seto took this as his chance to enter her, making the moment even more intense for Tea.
Seto moaned aloud as he felt himself inside of her moist opening, her heightened body heat radiating onto him. He began pumping in and out as he locked lips with this beautiful woman, being sure not to put too much pressure on her stomach while leaning over it.
He cradled her face as he let out another moan, bringing himself closer to her ear he whispered.
"You're so beautiful baby."
Tea entwined her fingers with his as he once again stole her swollen lips.
Thrusting deeply into her, he picked up speed and watched her back arch even more so as her body was sent into a frenzy of pleasure, Seto felt her muscles contracting around his manhood as his breathing became labored and he too climaxed.
He crashed beside her, Sweat drenching his hair, as he put an arm around her and brought her in closer to him. She turned around to face him and closed her eyes as they shared a tired, loving kiss.
"I can't wait to marry you." She whispered to him.
A small smile formed on his face as he tightened his grip on her waist.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight Seto."
