"Well, whatever you say Miya, but we all need to go sit down and buckle in."
'Aww why Seto. Miya didn't make us in the chopper."
"She did what?" Seto turned to look at you, and he looked pretty pissed.
"I'm sorry that I couldn't find a ride with buckles. Normally I would have, but this one didn't have buckles."
"Oh. Besides that fact. Miya's not the one flying. I don't trust half the idiots I've hired."
You laughed and rolled your eyes. Seto wasn't not much of a people person, so the hiring probably wasn't his favorite part of his position.
"Why don't you just assign someone else to be in charge of the actual personal interview, and you just do a quick walk in, ask a few questions and do a background check."
"That's a great idea Seto! Then you wouldn't be so hesitant to fire some the people you hate." Mokuba almost screamed.
"Mokuba, calm down."
"Sorry Seto, I'm just excited to be home."
The plane shifted slightly and jerked when it landed on the Domino Airstrip.
Roland was waiting on the strip with the limo, looking panicked
"Seto, I think there's something wrong with a Roland."
"Why do you say that?"
You leaned over to get a better look.
"He looked kinda, scared."
Seto shrugged and stood up. Aaron and Mokuba flew out of the cabin and almost made it out, but then Roland stepped in.
"Uh, Mr. Kaiba, sir…"he said while loosening his tie.
"Yes Roland? What is it?"
You walked over and nudged him and cleared your throat.
"What?"
"Sorry Roland, it's been a long week. What's wrong?" You said sweetly.
"Um, someone informed the media of your relationship. It's front page all over Japan."
The color drained from Seto's face. You didn't understand at first, but then you caught on. Everyone in Japan now knew you and Seto were dating, meaning you would be a target as well as Mokuba.
"Oh shit." you said under your breath.
"Do we know the name of the informer?"
"Not yet sir. I have a team working on it."
"So I take it we can't get out of here?"
"I have the limo for you and Mokuba. A car will be provided for Miya and Aaron."
"I get to drive right?"
"Depends on what car it is."
"It's your car sir. It's the only one we could find keys for."
"My Corvette?"
"Please Seto? I promise I'll take care of your precious baby." you said tilting your head slightly and looking innocent. He rolled his eyes and took the keys from Roland.
"No speeding."
He handed you the keys. You smiled triumphantly. You had expected for Seto to be a bit more reluctant.
"Of course I won't speed."
-Much- you said to yourself. What was the point of having a Corvette if you couldn't get those horses running?
"Now, when we open the doors, the car will be on the opposite side, so you will exit the opposite doors."
"Thank you Roland."
"You're belongings will be taken to Kaiba Manor later this evening."
When the side door opened, Mokuba was the first out, and Roland helped Aaron out and into the Corvette before getting into the limo, dodging the awaiting media.
"Miya, wait a sec."
"Yes?"
"Be careful. These media people can be hard to handle."
"I'll be fine Seto. I promise. Heck, I'll probably beat you guys back to the manor."
"I'll see you at home."
He moved your hair out of your face and kissed your forehead. You went to the side door and he helped you down. You smiled and got into the car.
Once you heard the limo door close, the plane started moving. Too avoid being seen, you moved the car with the plane until the media were out of sight, then you tore off down the highway.
Seto's POV
You sat in the back of the limo staring out the window.
"Seto, are you okay?"
"Hm?" you said looking over at your brother.
"Are. You. Okay?"
"I'm fine Mokuba."
"Then what's with the look?"
"What look?"
"That look!" he said loudly pointing at you.
"I honestly don't know what you're talking about Mokuba."
He studied your for a moment.
"She'll be fine Seto. I don't think you know how well she and Aaron can do Martial Arts."
You thought about it. You honestly didn't know a whole lot about Miya. She didn't know much about you either. You knew that your rough upbringing didn't matter much to her, and neither did your money, so you knew that you could tell her about your past without worrying.
"Speaking of martial arts. Miya and Aaron are going to teach you a few things when you get settled back at home."
"She is teaching you too?"
"No."
"Aw come on Seto. Why not? It'll be fun!"
"Mokuba, I don't need martial arts."
"Yeah, cause you're fine at defending yourself. It still wouldn't hurt to know something though."
You had to admit, Mokuba was right.
"I'll think about it."
"Okay Seto."
You groaned and run your hand threw your hair. There in front of Kaiba Manor was every news crew in Japan. You were hoping that Miya had either not come yet or hadn't left the car.
Roland pulled around back and you heard a whistle.
"Miya?"
"I need you to go out front and pretend like you drove the car home. And is there anyway Aaron and I can get in without them seeing?"
"Mokuba, show them the secret entrance. I'll go around front, and then you go too. We need to make it seem like I came home in the car and you in the limo."
"Okay Seto. Follow me guys."
You watched until Miya and Aaron were safely in the basement.
You walked out front and pretended to lock the car using your remote. A moment later, Mokuba came bounding from behind the house, the limo pulling up behind him.
You followed the pre-teen inside and found Miya and Aaron sitting on the bottom of the staircase. You saw that the whole inside of the Manor was decorated in blue and white.
"Happy extremely late birthday Seto!" Miya, Aaron and Mokuba yelled once the door was closed.
"Sorry we're so late big brother."
"I know, Aaron explained before we came and got you."
"Did he give you my present like I told him?"
"Mhm."
You bent down and opened the card locket and showed him that it was in the locket along with his picture.
"You can't put it in there. I have something else that goes in there!"
"And what is that Mokuba?"
"Let me see it."
You took it off and handed it your brother.
"Oh Miya I need yours too."
"Why Mokuba?"
Aaron took it from her and they both ran upstairs and into their room.
"What are they up to?"
"I have no idea Seto. Whatever it is, they did it without me."
Mokuba's POV
You dove under your bed and dug out the shoe box that you hid under there.
"You still have it?"
"Mhm. I would never get rid of that picture."
You were talking about the picture that you snapped of Seto and Miya before they left for the Senora Ball.
"See, they would have been mad at us for this. But we knew better. Less than 3 weeks later, they're dating."
'We must be psychic."
"I guess so. Too bad we're not psychic enough to be better duelists."
"At least when my sister teaches you some martial arts, you'll be kick ass at that."
"Awesome. When are we starting that by the way?"
"I'm not sure."
You took the two pictures and cut them down to size to be able to fit in the lockets. You took out the Blue Eyes drawing and slipped in the picture of Miya in Seto's locket. You then went to open Miya's locket. Hers was already full.
"Aaron, Miya already has a picture on that side."
"Good thing I got them those matching lockets."
"You got them lockets?"
"Yep."
Aaron pulled out a small bag with two card shaped lockets in it.
"I personalized them myself, but I put your name on the inside too."
One the outside were two Blue Eyes White Dragons intertwined with each other. One locket had Seto's name and the other had Miya's. On the inside was an inscription in hieroglyphics.
"What's it say Aaron?"
"Well you know how everyone but Seto believes in the ancient past?"
"Yeah?"
"Well our siblings' reincarnations were a couple too."
"The Priest and Kisara right?"
"Yeah, so it says 'Bound By Love till the Waters of the Nile Run Dry. Love Mokuba and Aaron', what do you think?"
You were speechless. It was perfect. You couldn't have found a better gift for them.
"It's…amazing Aaron. How did you come up with that?"
"I didn't. I went back in time with my M. Orb and saw it written on both Kisara's and Priest Seto's tombs right below the Blue Eyes."
"That's so cool!"
Aaron handed the lockets to you and you slipped in their pictures. Now you just had to get a picture to put on the other side.
"Hm, how bout we get a picture today to put on the other side Mokuba?"
"I was just about to say that. Let's just hope I can figure out how to use the auto setting on this camera."
"Or we could just have a maid do it."
"Oh, heh. Yeah. Forgot about that."
"I think the Pegasus' took your brain."
"Oh yeah, funny." you got out while trying not to laugh.
"Are you two done yet? The cake and ice cream are getting warm!" you heard Miya yell from the bottom of the stairs.
"She's right, we'd better get going."
You grabbed the lockets and the both of you ran downstairs.
"Let's go you two. After we cut the cake, you guys can give him his presents."
"I've got more?"
Miya gave him a look.
"Seto it is your 18th birthday, of course you've got more."
Seto sighed and rolled his eyes. He wasn't really one for gifts or parties. All of you walked into the kitchen. The room was dark except for 18 candles lit around a tiny cake. You looked at it oddly. That wasn't the cake Miya made, well the 4th one. Either she made a 5th one and gave up on a dragon, or she had something else up her sleeve.
"You know the rule Seto."
"Yeah big bro! You gotta make a wish before you can blow them out."
Seto's POV
You thought about what you would wish for.
"Hm. Let's see if this magic of your works Miya."
"What do you mean Seto?"
You closed your eyes and blew out your candles. Your brother, Aaron and Miya all cheered.
"What'd you wish for Seto?"
You looked around and folded your arms.
"It didn't work."
"How do you know?""Nothing changed."
"Well maybe we can change that if we know what you wished for big bro."
"I wished that I had everything a man could want."
"What else do you need Seto?" Aaron asked confused.
"You know what; I've got everything a man could ask for. My own company, fan girls, an adorable little brother, a crazy sort of brother, and the most beautiful, talented girl in the world."
You saw Miya turned slightly pink and then she turned to go to the fridge.
"Okay, time for the real cake. The other one is cardboard with frosting; this…is your real cake."
She pulled out a silver tray and set it down in front of you.
"Miya made it herself! You were right about talented!"
You took off the lid and there laid a cake shaped perfectly like a Blue Eyes White Dragon.
"Wow. Did you really make this Miya?"
"Mhm. I've perfected dragon cakes since that's all Aaron ever wanted for his birthday. Now you guys go sit down so I can cut this thing before I have to make another one."
"Another one?"
"Yeah, since everything kept ruining your party, I think this is the 4th cake I've made?"
"Miya, are you serious? You didn't…"
"I wanted to so don't you say another word. So just shut up and eat your cake."
"Oh before we start eating, we have our present! And both of you need to be sitting down. Miya!"
"Oh fine." She handed out the final piece of cake and sat down next to Seto.
You took the lockets out from underneath the table, but keep them out of sight.
"Close your eyes."
They rolled their eyes and closed their eyes.
Aaron took Miya's and you both placed them in their hands at the same time.
"Open your eyes!"
They looked down at their hands and Seto's eyes went wide, and Miya gasped quietly.
"They're gorgeous you guys!" Miya said finally able to speak.
"You like them? We designed them ourselves."
"Hurry up and open them!" Aaron urged with a mischievous grin on his face.
"What did you two do?" your brother asked slowly opening it.
"Oh nothing too horrible. Just open it."
Miya and Seto opened them and Miya ended up doing a double take.
"When did you guys take this? I didn't see you with cameras?"
"We take random pictures of your guys together all the time. You just don't notice."
Seto and Miya looked at each other with small smiles on their faces, and then looked back at the lockets.
"Thank you guys. I guess birthdays aren't really all that bad." Seto said placing the locket around his neck. Miya smiled and did the same.
"Heh, see. Told you so Seto!" you nagged jokingly.
"So what else did you guys concoct for today?"
"Nuh uh." Miya said shaking her head and picking up her fork. "After cake we'll worry about that."
