Tea's POV

You knew Joey would have to take a bathroom break sooner or later. Seeing as how you spiked the drinks a bit, you were surprised everyone was able to hold themselves up while playing this silly game. Yugi especially. You weren't sure about Miya's tolerance, but she seemed perfectly aware and had no sign of being even slightly tipsy.

"Gah! Screw this!" You let your legs drop and your arms fold under your body. Yugi, Miya, and Tristan came toppling down too.

"Oof."

"Aww Tea!" Joey screamed from the hallway.

"Sorry! It was starting to hurt from staying like that for that long."

"So what now?" Tristan mumbled from the bottom on the pile.

You wiggled your way out from between Tristan and Miya, and sat up.

"How bout Dare?"

"Isn't it truth or dare?"

"Eh sort of. But we don't do truths. Just dares."

Everyone nodded and sat in a circle.

"We'll use a bottle to choose, that way it's a game of chance too."

You went into the kitchen and grabbed an empty wine bottle.

When you got back they had left you an empty spot in the circle. Joey sat leaning up against the recliner, Miya to his right. You sat to his left, Yugi to your other side. Tristan was between Miya and Yugi.

"I'll go first."

You set the bottle down in the center and gave it a good spin. It landed on Tristan.

"Are you serious? I'm first?"

"Are you ready?"

"Bring it Tea!"

"Hm, you. You have to call and ask Serenity out on a date!"

Joey turned a deep red.

"If I do, can you make sure that Joey doesn't fly across the room and kill me?"

"Sure. Miya will hold him back.

Joey's POV

You sat there, fuming. Miya had a hand on your shoulder, and when she saw you flitch as he began dialing Serenity's number, her grip tightened.

"Joey, who's Serenity? Your crush or something?"

"No. Serenity's my little sister."

"Oh. And hey, calm down. He seems pretty scared. It's just a dare so I doubt he'd be doing this if it wasn't."

"Hm, good point. He knows I'd beat him into the ground."

Hearing that from Miya calmed you immensely. Tristan came back from the hallway, glowing.

"What'd she say?" Tea said slyly.

"We've, we've got a date for Friday night."

Yet again, your blood pressure exploded and you began fuming. You didn't want Tristan anywhere near your baby sister.

"Alright Tristan! You're turn."

Miya's POV

You were finally able to let go of Joey as he seemed to have calmed down. You watched as Tristan spun the bottle. He kept shifting glances between you, Joey and Yugi.

"Ha! Joey!"

Joey flinched slightly, apparently not happy about the outcome.

"You ready Joey?"

"Um..um..sure?"

You were slightly shocked by Joey's somewhat sheepish response.

"Hm. I dare you to…make out with Miya!"

You began laughing and Joey turned a glowing pink. As before, Joey lunged toward Tristan. You grabbed him arm, sat him back down and without hesitation, you kissed him.

Joey seemed stiff but relaxed after the shock wore off. His kiss was soft, and oddly romantic. This was the exact opposite from Seto's dominant and powerful way of kissing you. You heart was beating so hard it felt like it was about to give out.

Joey's POV

Your heart stopped beating when Miya's lips touched yours. It was like nothing you'd ever felt or imagined before. You snapped out of your stupor and kissed her back. Even though she was with your worst enemy, she seemed to be enjoying this as much as you were.

Without thinking, your hand made its way to the back of her neck. Weaving your fingers through her angel soft hair, you held her closer to you. You savored every moment since you knew this couldn't last forever, and would never happen again.

By this time, you were running out of breath but didn't want to pull back.

Yugi's POV

You stared in disbelief. Miya had been the one to initiate the kiss, and both of them seemed way too into this. It was as if Tristan had dared some couple to kiss; there was no tension. If you hadn't know any better, you would have thought they were secretly seeing each other.

When they parted, Joey's eyes were glossed over and he had a look you had never seen on his face before. They stared at each other for a moment. Unlike the last time they got dared to kissed, this time was different, like a scene from some gushy romance movie.

Miya's head turned, Joey's too. They both laughed sheepishly as they noticed that everyone was staring at them.

Joey bent over and spun the bottle.

"Yugi, you're turn."

You shrugged.

Joey sat and thought for a moment.

"I dare you to dare someone. But you have to use someone else's deck."

"Alright, that's an easy dare."

Everyone went and dug for their decks and set them in random places in the middle of the circle. You weren't sure who's was who's.

"Okay, so who am I dueling?"

"How bout you duel me Yugi?" Tea chirped.

"Oh hey, how bout you duel Miya? You didn't get to duel someone that night we got stuck in Kaiba Dome. And I'm sure Miya would have beat Kaiba if it'd hadn't been for the Earthly Balance card."

Joey had a point. Miya had almost beat Kaiba, and she would have had to duel you.

"Do you mind Miya?"

"No, of course not."

Miya's POV

You watched as Yugi picked a deck. When he made his choice, a smile came across your face. It was your deck that he'd chosen.

-This should be easy enough- you thought to yourself as you made your deck selection. For some reason your item drew you towards one in particular. Although this was somewhat cheating, you knew better than to go against this feeling.

Everyone moved around so that you and Yugi were face to face with enough room to have the card field between you.

As you shuffled the deck, you felt the energy from your item swell. When you set it down, the life of the deck appeared.

It was Joey's.

"You ready Miya?"

You nodded.

Yugi: 8000

Miya: 8000

"I'll go first since it was my dare." Yugi said. "I'll play this in defense mode."

"Hm, I'll summon Swordsman of Landstar (500/1200). I end with a card face down."

Joey's POV

You raised an eyebrow. There was no way Miya was going to be able to win again Yugi, especially with your deck.

"I'll summon Dark Angel (1870/900) in attack mode. (not the Destiny Hero!) Now Dark Angel, attack her Swordsman!"

"I play Mirror Force."

Yugi's Dark Angel's attack was stopped, and then it was sent to the graveyard.

"I end."

Miya's POV

You drew the card you were hoping for. You had seen it in the deck's life history. It was the card called "Hand of the Dark Dealer". This card allowed you to select a card from your opponents deck without telling them which card it was.

"I play Hand of the Dark Dealer."

"Wow. Isn't that one of Joey's strongest magic cards?" Tea asked Yugi.

Yugi handed you the deck. Since it was your own, you knew exactly what card you were looking for. A moment you handed it back to him.

You placed a card face down and ended your turn.

Yugi gave you an odd look but continued.

"I play this face down and summon Dragon Priest (2000/1900)"

"Wow Yugi! That's a powerful monster!" Joey gasped from the sidelines.

"Dragon Priest, attack her Swordsman!"

Miya: 6500

You drew a card.

"I summon Water fish (1800/800) in attack mode. Next I play Change of Heart and Choice Reigki. Reigki destroy his Dark Angel. "

Dragon Priest turned and changed sides, becoming your monster.

"Now, Priest, attack his life points directly! You too Water Fish!"

Yugi: 4200

"Good job Miya. You took out nearly half Yugi's life points in one attack phase."

"I end."

Yugi's POV

Although you knew Joey's deck inside and out, you found it hard to determine Miya's next move. She really was good. Normally it was difficult to beat Kaiba, and when she almost beat him, that meant she was a great opponent too. She was one who could be in the running for your title.

"I summon Kelbek (1500/1800)."

You had seen this monster before, in Battle City. It was one of the many "millennium" type monsters in Ishizu's deck.

"I place a card face down and end."

Miya's POV

You had placed the card you got from your deck face down, "Temple of the Gods" In a matter of a few turns, you'd be able to summon your two gods from Yugi's deck.

"I now regain control of Dragon Priest. I summon Dragon Mage (1200/1200) in attack mode."

You stared down at your hand. You had nothing that could be summoned after he destroyed Water Fish. You hoped that you'd be able to hold him off until you could summon your gods and finish him off.

"Dragon Priest attack her water fish. Mage, attack her life points directly!"

Miya:5100

Now that the scores were closer together, you could tell the duel was gonna start heating up. You drew a card.

'I summon a monster in defense mode and end my turn."

The turn count was now down to 2 duelist moves. During your next turn you'd be able to summon both Isis and Kisara.

"Hm, Dragon Priest attack her face down monster!"

"Too bad Yugi!"

The Priest attacked but was repelled.

"My face down monster is Island Turtle. His defense is equal to your Priest's attack."

"I end."

You saw your card glow a hint of gold, and Yugi's eyes widened.

"I activate the ritual card Temple of the Gods! With this card, at the cost of 1500 life points a piece I can summon God cards from either players decks. I choose to summon Isis: Nile Guardian and Kisara: White Dragon Priestess!"

"With those cards she'll win the duel!" you heard Tristan whisper to Joey.

"Now, my Gods. Attack his monsters!"

Yugi:0000 Miya:2100

'Holy crap! Miya just really beat you Yug!"

"I think he knows that Joey" tea scoffed bluntly.

"Great duel Miya. Since you beat me, I guess that makes you King O…"

"Don't you say it. This was not an official duel, just a game between friends."

You handed Joey back his deck and you took your from Yugi.

"Besides, you didn't have your normal arsenal of monsters. Maybe we'll be able to duel seriously some other time."

"Yeah, defiantly."

Once everyone was back in their original seats, Yugi spun the bottle. This time it landed on Tea.

"Yay! It's about time!"

Tristan leaned over and whispered something in Yugi's ear, then Yugi began laughing.

"You've got to call Kaiba."

"That's not so hard."

"No, you have to call and pretend to be Miya, and hit on him!"

Tea's face lost all it's color. You covered your mouth and was laughing your ass off.

"He'll know it's me. He knows Miya's voice."

"Nah, he's too busy with the stuff for his meeting tonight. Besides, on the phone, we sound a lot alike."

"Alright, what do I have to say exactly?"

"Like we said. You have to hit on him, flirt with him. Something sexy?" Tristan said trying not to laugh.

"You don't care Miya?" Tea asked.

"Oh hell no. This is gonna be hilarious."

"Damn it. You were suppose to get me out of this dare."

You shook your head and dug through your duffle bag looking for your phone.

"Oh and hey look. He's even tried calling me. You can just ask like you're calling him back instead of it being just some random phone call."

Seto's POV

You sat on your bed, fiddling with your tie. Since you're mind was on Miya, you were having some difficulties tying it correctly. You're meeting was in a little less than an hour, and thankfully the sun burn wasn't too horrible.

'Damn it!" you shouted, messing up your tie again.

A moment later, Miya's ringtone echoed from across the room.

"Hello?"

"Hey Kai..Seto."

"Hey Miya, where were you?"

"I left my phone out in my car. Sorry."

"It's alright. Was just wondering.."

"What? Do you miss me?"

"Heh, well yeah."

"Aww I miss you too Seto."

"Well, um how's the party?"

"Eh, it's alright. Would rather be with you."

"Uh huh, why's that?"

"I just wanna be with my ultra sexy, rich boyfriend."

"Miya? Have you been drinking?"

"No, what makes you say that?"

"Hm, if you say so. But I called to ask if you wanted to go to the meeting still?"

"If I go, do I get something later?"

You were taken back for a second.

"What would you want?"

"You…in bed…that trench coat laying on the floor..with your hands run…"

Your phone beeped at you telling you the call had been dropped. You were shocked. Not only did that not sound like something Miya would say, you couldn't even picture what she'd been saying.

Miya's POV

As everyone started busting up, Tea quickly ended the call and threw your phone back at you. Moments later, after the adrenaline wore off, she was cracking up too.

"That was…I ..wow that was wrong." Tea was at a slight lose of words, which you found odd.

You were slumped over on Joey's shoulder, gasping for breath. By now your ribs felt like that were about to break, especially since you're stitches were still healing.

"Al, Alright Tea, you're turn."

She waited for everyone to catch their breath and spun. Again, it landed on you.

"You have to call Duke and do the same thing."

"Didn't I have to do this last time?"

"Oh true. But we need to crush his swelled ego a bit. Oh wait! I know something better!"

"Okay? Shoot."

"You have to go to the store and get close enough to him that he lets you hold his "special" dice."

"That shouldn't be that hard."

"I don't know about that Miya."

"What do you mean Joey?""He never ever, ever lets anyone touch those dice. They're Duke's equivalent of Kaiba's Blue Eyes."

"Oh that really can't be that hard. I've gotten my hands on those many time."

"Uh..what? Really?"

"Yeah, I'm just good like that."

"Hah, you must have some ninja skills to get past him." Tristan said trying not to laugh at Joey's shocked expression.

"I guess so. So shall we go?"

"Mhm!" everyone said in unison.

While everyone else grabbed their coats, you shoved your hair into the blonde wig you had in your bag.

Instead of taking two cars, you all got into Tea's car. You were in the back with Joey and Tristan, Yugi was in the front with Tea.
