Untitled Romance In Domino

Chapter 6

The Next day at 7 Yugi, Yami, and Jon arrived at the mansion. They were closely followed by Joey, Duke and Tristan. Last to arrived was Mai, Rachel, Serenity and Tea. Seto had given his staff the night off because he didnt need them gossiping about him hanging out with the Nerd Herd.

They all gathered in the second floor TV room which was located next to the game room.

"Ok, so what are we going to do first?" Tea asked.

"Why dont we all write the game we want to play on paper and place it in a hat. We draw to see what we play." Ashley suggested.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Everyone tossed their peice of paper into a hat and Ashley drew one out. "Truth or Dare" She proclaimed.

With some groaning and some cheers everyone settled into peices of furniture at the TV end of the room.

"Rachel, Truth or Dare?" Ashley asked.

"Dare."

"I dare you to kiss Jon, for 30 seconds" Ashley said, a triumphant grin on her face. 30 seconds, a blushing Jon and a laughing Rachel later the game resumed. Amidst Laughs and giggles from most of the crowd assembled and a few jeers and a little teasing at Jons expense from the boys.

Seto was still sitting quietly beside Ashley. Outwardly calm, inside his head was another matter. He was lost in thought... Thoughts about the girl sitting beside him, how did she affect him this much? Him! The Great Seto Kaiba, Affected by a girl who appeared to be unaware of what she was doing to him... and wasnt drooling all over him like his crazed fan girls. Perhaps that was her appeal. He had to think on this matter more. He returned his attention to the game when he heard his name being called.

"Kaiba! Truth or Dare?" Rachel said with a grin... she was plotting something...

"Dare." He said, without even thinking. 'great...' he thought, 'this will allow them to humiliate me..'

Rachel smirked at Ashley... -revenge was so sweet- "I dare you to kiss Ashley, for 30 seconds!"

Without wasting a moment Seto turned to Ashley, grabbed her carefully around the middle so as not to hurt her, pulled her close. His lips met hers in a flash of butterlies and heat! Her cheeks were burning with a blush and if she had been standing shed be in danger of melting to the floor! The kiss rocked her to the core of her very being! One hand was pressed firmly to her lower back and the other hand rested softly on her cheek.

Everyones jaws dropped! Seto Kaiba was not made of ice after all, and he just showed everyone with eyes in their head and half a working brain that he had feelings for another human being... very strong feelings!

Someone coughed as it was long passed the 30 seconds required to satisfy the dare. Seto pulled back slightly, looked Ashley in the eyes and then kissed her again quickly. Then he pulled back completely and sat back in his seat.

"Mai," He said, "Truth or Dare?" Ashley mentally shook herself... what had just happened there?

"Truth!" Mai said. Ashley couldnt believe it... Did Seto actually like her? That kissed seemed a little over kill, hadnt it?

"Is it true Mai, that you have a thing for wheeler?" He gritted out the name and resisted the urge to call him mutt.

"Its true." She said with a grin and to prove her point and not to be outdone by the past two players at the game. She grabbed joey and pulled him into a searing passionate kiss.

After the a few more rounds of Truth or Dare it kind of got boreing and wound down. It got boreing as everyone was dareing so and so to kiss so and so or asking questions like is it true blah blah blah. Finally they quit alltogether and decided to pick a new game from the hat. Rachel grabbed the hat and drew out a slip of paper.

"Strip poker... Who the heck wrote strip poker on their paper?" She asked.

Joey and Tristan both looked sheepishly away from rachels searching gaze.

"I think rules will need to be in play for this game." Seto said.

"I agree." Said Mai. "How about we only go as far as under garments, meaning when you hit ur underwear your out. and you dont get your clothes back until the round is over."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Seto turned to Mokuba.

"I think its your bedtime Mokie."

"Awe seto. cant i stay?" He begged.

"Your too young for this game. Its bad enough you wittnessed Joey and Tristan kissing in the truth or dare game!" Seto said as he walked his younger brother from the room and down the hall.

"Hey i thought we werent going to bring that up again!" Joey and tristan yelled.

When Seto returned from tucking mokie in for the night he found a deck of cards and motiond for everyone to join him at the other end of the room.

"there are tables in that cupboard there," He motioned for joey and tristan to grab them. "Grab two and set them up here." then he went to another cupboard and opened it revealing a stack of chairs. he grabbed two and brought them to the table for Ashley and Rachel. He returned for another one for himself then he motioned for everyone else to help them selves.

When the game started and Serenity lost her first item, Joey decided she wasnt allowed to play, but as the game had started and she pointed out that she could remove a sock the game continued. Joey spent the rest of the game trying to cheat so that he would be the hand winner and therefore he wouldnt choose serenity to lose an item... when he didnt have a winning hand he intentionally bluffed to get tristan and duke to fold. there was no way his little sister was loseing another item on his watch!

The game started to get interesting when everyone had lost their socks, belts, sweaters or vests and everyone was left with shirts and pants. Tristan won, and deciding to avoid getting hit by joey he took joeys shirt instead of serenitys.

yami won the next two loseing tristan his shirt and duke his shirt... Duke won next and mai lost her shirt... she was the first girl in a bra! "Duke you pervert!" Joey accused and nearly flew acrosss the table to punch him, he was also resisting the urge to grab a blanket off the couch to cover her with. Ashley won next and seto lost his shirt.

"Aha! i am the only man left in a shirt!" As jon had been to shy to actually play and had opted to watch and make sure no one was cheating.

Mai won the following three hands bringing Joey to his boxers and causeing him to lose, Tristan to his boxers, and Yami was now shirtless. Duke won again and tea lost her top. Tea won revenge on the next hand and Duke was out in his boxer breifs! Soon both Mai and Tea were knocked out leaveing Ashley, Seto, Rachel, Yami, Yugi and Serenity. Serenity took out yugi and soon after Rachel took out Serenity. Ashley was still wearing her skirt and shirt, as was rachel. Seto was only in pants and so was Yami. Both boys were in precarious positions of loseing. And seemed intent on winning so they could knock the other out.

This allowed Rachel to win, she smirked and held out her hand to Yami. "Pants please!" She laughed. His pants came off, revealing his Black and Red Darth Vader boxers. He blushed, his secret was out, he was a star wars fan. Ashley and Rachel both gigled. "I love those!" Ashley said. "Im a huge fan!" Yami smiled. "Ya me too." He said.

"Can we get on with the game?" Seto asked. 'i have to win.' he thought 'or else they will know im a starwars fan as well.'

He set out witn new determination. Ruthlessly knocking rachel out of the game in two swift hands. it was down to Ashley vs Seto for their last articles of clothing, Asheys Shirt or Setos Pants! But Ashley got lucky with the cards this hand and beat setos full house with a straight flush. Seto was then forced to remove his pants and therefore reveal that he too, like his nemisis, was a star wars fan! Ashley was amazed, Seto Kaiba was a starwars fan!

Before anyone could say anything there was a crash in the hallway and two people burst into the room. they were dressed in black capes but you could tell who they were. Bakura and Marik. When they first burst in they were disoriented by what they saw, a bunch of half naked teenagers sitting around a table. Then they spotted what they came for. RACHEL. But when they noticed she was in her underwear they almost fell over. You see they are both in love with her, Marik Madly and Bakura Obsessivley. Because everyone was taken off guard by the intrusion they barely had time to react before Rachel was grabbed abd the three disappeared. Then there was a flurry of everyoen scrambleing for clothes. The guys all organised a search party and were going to head out right away to find rachel.

Ashley asked Seto to join them as she couldnt go along because of her ankle. "Please find Rae for me Seto." She asked sweetly. He nodded and joined the boys along with tea and mai. Serenity was going to stay back and keep ashley company.
