Hey guys, I thought I would post this before you guys killed me!! haha, well here it is just a short little chapter I promise you the next chapter will be very long long long! Here ya go!

I didn’t look up from the book I was reading. I was too engrossed in the words, in the setting and plot, I wanted what I was reading to come alive, and I wanted it to come alive and take me away from the harsh reality that I woke up to every day. The reality that I wished so much to be just my imagination. I wished that my mother had never meet that man, I wish that my father were still alive, I wished that I had never stayed after school that day, I wished that I hadn’t hurt Yugi the way I did. I wish that I didn’t have to lean on everyone for support, I wished that I could be that person to lean on.

Yet has much as I wished. When I looked up from the book, my reality surrounded me, and I couldn’t tell whether, I was real or fake.

“Tea, you have been in here all day please open the door.” Kaiba said softly.

He had been trying all day to get me to open the door, and finally I deiced I would let him in. I slid off the bed and slowly walked over to the door turning the knob only so that it would click and unlock and then I walked back to the bed hearing Kaiba open the door and shut it. Following me to the bed I could already tell he was extremely worried.

“Don’t look so worried Kaiba, it only worries me when you look at me like that.” I said.

Kaiba pulled me up from the bed pulling me gently into his lap, kissing my forehead and sighing softly. He knew everything yet he continued to try to comfort me and love me. I had nothing to offer him, well nothing a normal boy would want, and yet he wanted me. I wasn’t anything special. I sighed when I realized just what this situation was doing to my self-image.

“Kaiba, why are you with me, sitting here holding me, when you could be with anyone you ever wanted?” I whispered, almost afraid of his answer.

He could have changed his mind after all this drama, I know I would have, so why should he be any different.

“Tea don’t.” His grip on my tightened and I suddenly regretted my words.

He hadn’t slept all night; the lines on his face were tired and worn. He was so worried and here all I did was worry him more, making him listen to my questionable feelings for him.

“I’m sorry Kaiba, I just don’t think I deserve this.” I said sighing and closing my eyes.

“I said don’t, and I mean it. I know what you deserve and I’ll tell you what you don’t deserve your parents treating you like crap and your stepfather. You don’t need or deserve any of that complete crap! And I won’t stand around and watch you reduce to this fragile girl this girl that I’m holding in my arms, she’s not weak at all, but I know she feels weak, and I don’t want that.” He said, his words growing stronger with emotion as he finished.

He pushed me gently back against the bed. Putting his lips to mine he captured my lips in a way he had never done before, he was so full of emotion, I had never seen Kaiba so passionate. Yet as soon as I returned his kiss he pulled away.

“And I know, I know that this, only makes you feel weaker. Sleep Tea, you’ve been awake all night, I want you to sleep.”

I could think of nothing to say to him as tears filled my eyes. I turned and cuddled up next to him in the bed pulling the blankets over him and myself, I watched his eyes close softly as I began to close mine. And yet again the last thing I say were, his beautiful blue eyes. And once again I was all right, for that moment, I felt strong, and I was safe.

Hey guys I know that was short but I wrote it cause I was bored hope you like! Love chichi!
