I'm back everyone! I know I haven't updated in a while, but I've been busy with semester tests, the play, speech team, and school. I don't own Yugioh and never will. Also, review please! Another thing, the song I used in this chapeter is not mine. It belongs to Santana. Some of you might know it, but for those of you that don't, its called Dance on into the night. Thank you and please read this chapter. No flames please!
"Ahhh I love being clean."
Tea was sitting in her room, brushing her dark brown locks, smiling. She was glad the bikers had let her take a shower. Now she was fresh and clean. Tea looked down at the clothes Mai had picked out for her. She frowned. Mai certainly wore flashy clothing. Tea observed. A tight black corset that would reveal most of her cleavage, and skimpy black shorts. Tea sighed. Thank goodness she had her yellow jacket. It would conceal most of her. She put on the clothing and looked in the mirror. She had to admit. The clothes looked good on her. Tea spun around when she heard someone knock on the door. She hurried to the door, opening it to reveal Valon. He grinned at her.
"Ello bird."
"Oh, hi Valon."
He leaned against the door frame while she stood there fumbling like an idiot. Valon inwardly smirked. She looked so cute when she was flustered.
"Watcha been doin all this time?"
"Well...I ...um took a shower."
"What else?"
She gave him a withering look that made him chuckle. He liked this girl. He truly did. She was amusing. Tea studied him. He was tall. A couple inches taller than her, his brown hair pointing in every which way direction. She assumed he was a wild one. She noted on how muscular his arms were. Not as muscular as Rafael's, but they were still pretty decent. His face was what interested her the most. He had full lips, a good nose(as far as noses go) and sky blue eyes that held a mysterious glimmer in them. "Can I come in?"
Tea snapped out of her musings and nodded. She led him in, not knowing what to say. Valon walked over to her. He towered over her, staring at the wall with her staring at his chest.
"Thank you...for what you did for Alistair."
Tea blushed "It was nothing. He just needed help."
"It wasn't nothing. You helped him better than we could."
He stared into her eyes and took her hand. He had to admit, she had pretty hands. She smiled at him gently.
"He seemed to being crying out inwardly."
Valon nodded. "Its strange. We're his chums and we could never get him to open up."
"Really?"
"We knew his story, but could never get him to tell us how he was feeling. He would always want to be by himself."
Tea went quiet for a moment. She felt bad for Alistair She knew how it felt to be alone.
"People don't realize it, but its scary being on your own. I don't like it."
Valon nodded and looked into her eyes, seeing sadness in them. His heart clenched. He hated seeing this girl sad. More than he hated Joey...or his father.
"Tea, what's your life like?"
Tea blinked at the question, wondering where it had come from.
"Well, the church I live in is the most beautiful place in the world. Father Solomon and Sister Catherine are the most kind and loving adopted parents anyone could ever have. We are catholic, but we never force our religion onto other people and they aren't strict like some of the others. I love my friends and school. My friends mean the most to me. We have been through so much together. Up until I met Yami, I had a pretty average life, besides my childhood. Oh, I almost forgot, I love dancing!"
Valon smiled at her. To him, he could sit there all day and listen to her talk. He frowned when he saw her face turn to an expression of sadness.
"Tea..."
"But when I'm alone, no one see's me cry. Funny, It seems I do that a lot lately."
Valon pressed her hand to his cheek. He loved the feeling of her skin on his. Tea smiled. She liked the feeling he gave her. She always felt safe and secure with him.
"Valon?"
"Hm?"
"What about your life?"
Valon went quiet. Tea suddenly felt guilty, she didn't mean to pry, she just wanted to know.
"I'll tell you some other time."
Tea nodded. A comfortable silence fell upon them. Valon stared out her balcony window. An idea came to his mind.
"Tea, what time is it?"
Tea looked up at the clock in front of her. She wondered why he wanted to know.
"6:00. Why?"
"How about we go out?"
"Really?"
Tea's eyes lit up with excitement. Valon nodded, extending her arm out to him. She gratefully took it and they walked out the door. As they headed out the door, Alistair looked up from his book with an eyebrow raised.
"Where are you two going?"
Raphael looked up from his deck and Mai looked up from painting her nails. Both of them looked curious. Valon waved a hand at them.
"We're just going out. Something wrong?"
Alistair shook his head. "I was just wondering buddy."
Mai walked up to him and pressed something in his hand. Tea wondered what it was. Mai smirked evilly at him.
"Be safe. Hehehehe"
Tea blushed when she realized what it was. Valon's face was pink and he chucked the condom at her, which accidentally hit Raphael, who did not look amused. Valon muttered an apology and hurried Tea outside.
"Valon, what was that about?"
"Its nothing Tea."
Valon got on his bike, handing Tea a helmet. She stared at it with horror.
"We...we're not going...on a motorcycle!"
Valon grinned. She was so fucking adorable sometimes.
"Its okay Tea. I'll drive carefully."
Lie. Valon liked driving crazy. But he didn't want her to be scared. Tea slowly got on the back of the motorcycle, taking the helmet and putting it on. She carefully wrapped her arms around Valon, grateful that he could not see her blush. Valon started the bike and they rode off to wherever Valon was taking her. Tea looked at the scenery around her. Everything about this island was beautiful, as if it were designed to model after something. Ahead of her, she could see lights from a village an hour or so away from here.
"Valon...where are we going?" she said
"To a small town!"
He turned the bike around a corner. Tea was excited. She wondered what they were going to do that evening. When they got to the town, Tea gasped in wonder. The town was like a little island village. It seemed as if a festival was going on. Little kids were running around and adults, teenagers, and the elderly were talking, dancing, or eating. Valon move his goggles to his bike and Tea pulled off the helmet. Valon took her hand, leading her into the crowd.
"Wow Valon! This is so cool!"
"There are festivals like this a lot."
"Ohhhh I love this song!"
"Then lets dance!"
Valon took her hand, leading her closer to where the music was. He didn't recognize the song, but her eyes lit up with excitement when she heard it. She swayed her hips and lifted her hands above her head, getting into the song. Valon stood there watching her.
"Like a gift from the heavens"
"It was easy to tell"
"It was love from above that could save me from hell"
"She had fire in her soul"
"It was easy to see"
"How the devil himself could be pulled out of me"
Tea continued her dancing. People were staring at her in amazement. They had never seen such a wonderful dancer in there lives. Some of the local dancers started coming near her, copying her moves along with her.
"There were drums in the air as she started to dance"
"Every soul in the room keeping time with her hands"
"And we sang Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And voices rang like the angels sing"
"We're singing ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And we danced on into the night"
"Ay oh ay oh"
"Ay oh ay oh"
"And we danced on into the night"
Valon continued to watch her, mesmerized by her dancing. The way her hands moved and how her hips swayed. She was like a dancing angel. His dancing angel. She caught his gaze and continued to dance. Her eyes locked with his.
"Like a piece to the puzzle"
"That falls into place"
"You could tell how we felt"
"From the look on our faces"
Valon decided to join her. He wasn't a great dancer like her, but he knew a few moves and was a fast learner. He danced along with her spinning in circles under the moon.
"We were spinning in circles"
"With the moon in our eyes"
"No room left to move "
"In between you and I"
"We forgot where we were"
"And we lost track of time"
"And we sang to the wind"
"As we danced through the night"
Valon took Tea by the hands, spinning her around until she came into his chest. She blushed and continued to dance with him. She looked like she was having fun. Even if she was their hostage.
"And we sang Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And voices rang like the angels sing"
"We're singing Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And we danced on into the night"
"Ay oh ay oh, ay oh ay oh"
"And we danced on into the night"
"Ay oh ay oh, ay oh ay oh"
"And we danced on into the night"
Tea laughed. Valon's heart skipped a beat. He had never heard her laugh. He loved the sound of it. When he heard it, he thought of wind chimes on a spring day. Her laugh was prettier than Mai's. She continued to dance, and he admired her skills. It must have taken years to master these dance moves. She had real talent. That was for sure. The song began to slow down. Her moves began to get slower, to match the rhythm.
"Like a gift from the heavens"
"It was easy to tell"
"It was love from above"
"That could save me from hell"
"She had fire in her soul"
"It was easy to see"
"How the devil himself"
"Could be pulled out of me"
"There were drums in the air"
"As she started to dance"
"Every soul in the room"
"Keeping time with her hands"
"And we sang ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And the voices rang "
"Like the angels sing"
"We're singing ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And we danced on into the night"
"Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And we danced on into the night"
"We're singing ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
"And we danced on into the night"
Valon had lost track of how long the song would be. But he couldn't bring himself to care. All he knew for the moment was that he was with Tea. And that was all that mattered to him.
"Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
(ay oh ay oh)
"Singin ay oh ay oh ay oh ay"
(ay oh ay oh)
"And we danced on into the night!"
The song was finished and Tea had sweat on her body and her face was flushed, but she didn't looked like she cared. Valon smiled and laughed. She looked happy and that was all that mattered. He took her hand.
"Oi bird, are you hungry?"
"Oh my gosh yes!"
They went to a nearby food stand and ordered some ramen. Valon would've gulped it down in a flash, but he remembered that he was in public and Tea probably wouldn't be to impressed by those actions. He decided to bring up a conversation.
"You having fun?"
"Yes! Are you?"
"If your having fun, I'm having fun."
Tea blushed. He always seemed happy when she was. It made her happy.
"Hey Valon?"
"Hm?"
"Are you really happy?"
Valon looked at her and took her with a serious expression on his handsome face.
"Yes Tea. I'm happy. You make me happy."
"Oh."
Valon smiled and took a bite out of his ramen. He was being truthful. He was happy when he was with her.
"Hey Valon, what do you like to do?"
Valon paused, thinking for a moment. He didn't have to long of a list.
"Well, I like to duel, play video games, annoy Alister, and eat. Also, I like racing."
Tea laughed. Valon raised an eyebrow. He wondered what was so funny.
"Hey whats so funny?"
Tea stopped laughing, wiping a tear from her face.
"I'm not laughing at you, it just reminds me of how Joey likes to annoy Kaiba."
Valon smiled. Knew information about Wheeler was always good to hear. But he did find it amusing that Wheeler liked to annoy Kaiba.
"Alister does seem like the type to get annoyed easily." Tea said.
"Oh you have no idea! Once I stole his Klondike bar and he was so mad, I swear his face was on fire!"
Both of them sat there laughing. Tea decided to tell Valon the story of how Duke made Joey dress up as dog once and Kaiba had walked in. Joey was so embarrassed and Kaiba had just stood there for a few seconds with a smirk on his face, and then he started laughing uncontrollably. Tea sighed in content, thinking of those good times.
"Tea, would you like to dance again?"
"Sure Valon."
He payed for the food, took her hand and they headed back to the dance floor. A slow song was playing. Valon wrapped his arms around her waist while Tea placed her arms around his neck, thus bring them closer together. Tea didn't know this song, but apparently Valon did, because he was humming to it a little.
"Valon, what will Dartz do with me if Yami comes?"
"He'll probably let you go."
"I see."
Valon tilted her chin up and stared into her eyes. She blushed at how he looked at her.
"Don't worry Tea. I won't let anything happen to you."
Tea nodded and closed her eyes, getting lost into the song. In her thoughts, she realized something. Half of her didn't want Yami and the others to come. Not just because she didn't want to be rescued, but because she was afraid she wouldn't see Valon, or Alister, Raphael, or even Mai again. If she did, she wouldn't be able to inter act with them like she could now. Valon noticed her grip on him tightening. He didn't like it when she was worried. She shouldn't have to worry about so many things.
"Valon, lets be friends."
"What?"
"Lets be friends."
Valon looked at her in surprise. He hadn't expected her to say something like this. Friends. He had Raph, Al and Mai as friends. But Tea as a friend? It sounded weird. Not a bad weird. Just weird. The friend of his enemy being his friend. Why not?
"Alright Tea, lets be friends."
She beamed at him and he smiled back. Inside, he realized he wanted to be more than a friend to her.
I hope this chapter was alright. To me, the whole Condom thing amused me to no end. Review please!
