Getaway

With Joey and Tea still surrounded in the street by Mai and the three goths, the pressure was on. Both Joey and Tea had very confused and scared expressions in their eyes.

"Tea?" Mai asked. "Do you still love me?"

Tea was too worried to say anything

"Joey?" Mai looked at him. "Do you still love me?"

Joey looked at her with an angry yet confused expression.

"What's it gonna be you two?" Mai said again.

"Mai please." Tea cried. "It doesn't have to end like this. It isn't worth any of us getting hurt over."

"Hurt?" Mai said looking at her. "If anyone here has been "hurt", it's me! I loved both of you guys, but ya'll walked out on me like I was nothing. After everything I'd ever done for you!"

"Yeah, right." Joey snared at Mai.

"I didn't want it to come to this either, but you left me with no choice" Mai said. "Now who's it gonna be?"

There wasn't much time. Mai was ready to take either Joey or Tea home with her forever and give the orders to Sam, Amber and Lynn to kidnap the other and brutalize them. Joey and Tea kept looking at each other.

I guess this is it, Tea thought. No matter what happens, we both lose. One of us will get hurt, and Joey and I won't ever see each other again huh.

Joey starred at her thinking the same thing. He was never gonna see Tea again if this happens. Joey turned his head toward Mai and looked at her with a vengeful face, then back at Tea. All he could think about was how much he loved Tea now.

No! No way, Joey thought. Not like this! Not this way!

Joey turned his head at Mai.

"I've had it Mai!" Joey yelled. "I'll never go back with you!"

Mai and Tea looked at him with shocked expressions. "I'll never take you back. After everything you've done to us? I'll never go back to you!"

Tea couldn't believe it. How could Joey still have the guts to stand up to Mai like this? With them backed into a corner and their physical beings at stake.

Mai's frown turned to a smile. "Very well then. Too bad I guess." Mai turned to Tea. "I guess it's you then Tea."

Tea looked at Mai surprised. "I know you still love me and Joey's obviously not coming back. So it's just us. Let get back in the car and go home." Mai said with a smile. "I'm sure we can work things out and let by-gones be by-gones."

Tea finally realized know what a fool she'd been.

"You're insane Mai!" Tea declared. "You're absolutely insane!"

"What?" Mai shouted.

"After everything you did to me?" Tea yelled. "You tortured me. You raped me. You tortured Joey. You played with our emotions. And you've tried to separate me and Joey once and for all!

Joey looked at Tea. 'I'm proud of you Tea' Joey said to himself with a smile, happy to finally see Tea take a stand.

"You're sick Mai!" Tea shuttered in anger. "I'll never come back to you!"

Mai couldn't believe.

"That's right Mai" Joey shouted. "You'll never separate us. Tea and I are staying right here; together!"

"Exactly." Tea grabbed Joey's hand still looking at Mai. "I'll never leave Joey, and Joey will leave me! We're staying right here."

And with it, Joey and Tea put their arms on top of each others shoulders, looking at Mai to declare their love.

Mai's teeth gritted. She frowned angrily at them with her eye lid squinting up and down.

She finally had enough. Mai growled and yelled as she charged after Joey and tried to punch him! But Joey just grabbed her fist and blocked it. She tried to punch Tea with her free arm, but Tea blocked it as well! Joey twisted her arm and pushed her away.

Mai breathed rapidily with a psychotic look in her face.

"Fine then!" she said. "If that's the way it's gonna be, then I'll just have you both kidnapped!"

Mai nodded at Sam Amber and Lynn, still standing behind them having seen the whole thing. Immediately they got out their clubs and began walking slowly toward Joey and Tea.

Joey and Tea started backing away. Still holding each others hands, they face the three goths, determined to take whatever was coming…..

"STOP RIGHT THERE!" a loud voice shouted.

Immediately all the sudden, several bright lights shined in their faces. They could see red and blues light flashing and spinning towards them. Five policemen were out of their cars with guns drawn on Sam, Amber Lynn and Mai.

Everyone froze in complete fear. Tea pulled Joey closer to her. Mai gasped out loud.

"Now put your weapons down and get on the ground, now!" the cop ordered.

Joey, Mai and Tea couldn't believe what they were seeing. The police had showed up at the last second. They watched in shock as they arrested the three goth girls and loaded them away in their car.

"You make me sick Mai!" another deep voice called.

The three turned their heads in surprise to see Seto Kaiba standing their looking at them.

"Kaiba?" Joey said in shock.

"Thanks to our satellites that track your dueldisks, we were able to zoom in and see what was going on! So I had to police come here and check it out" Kaiba informed them.

Joey couldn't believe. Kaiba actually came in handy for them once.

"No. Kaiba, this isn't what it looked like." Mai begged with a face full of fear.

"You're disqualified from my tournament!" Kaiba told her. "Get her out of her!"

With that the cops came up to Mai and arrested her. They put her in cuffs and began leading her away. Joey and Tea looked at her holding each other. Mai looked back at them one last time.

Mai stopped wanting to say something to them. She wanted to tell them she was sorry. She never meant for any of it. But she knew it was no use. Tea and Joey looked at her with their eyebrows down. There was nothing left to say!

With that, Mai cried and the police drove her, and her goth friends away.

The two looked at Kaiba again.

"Thanks man" Joey told him. "We owe you one."

"Don't mention it." Kaiba said with a dark frown as he walked away.

And with that it was over.

Joey and Tea were the only ones left out on the street. They looked at each other in complete relief. Still holding each others hands they looked in each others eyes again full of love. Immediately they grabbed and hugged each other.

Tea felt like she was about to shed a few tears.

"Why does this always happen to us Joey?" Tea said.

"Joey couldn't help but laugh in relief. "Who knows? I guess we're just unlucky."

The two kept holding each either as tight as they could. It had felt like an eternity for them since they've been together, and now they were forever. The night was theirs'.

It was a bright sunny afternoon. The ocean waves were crashing. The warm wind was blowing. The hot sun was beating down on them.

Tea was lying outside on a lawn chair in her bright green bikini on the porch of the private hut right next to the beach. They had finally won the tournament winning the trip to Kaiba's private island.

Joey finally walked up to the railing, looking out at the ocean water and the palm trees.

"It sure is a lovely day, isn't it?" Tea looked up to him with a bright smile.

Joey was in his blue and white swim trunks. "It sure is. I can't wait to get how there and see how the water is today."

"Ahhh what do you mean?" Tea said.

"Don't tell me you don't wanna get out there and go swimming?" Joey turned to her smiling.

"Can't it wait?" Tea said. "I'm still sunbathing."

Tea lifted up and waved her fingers for Joey to come toward her. Joey did so and laid down on the lawn chair with her. Tea moved around and crawled on top of Joey.

"I need to do my back now." Tea reached behind her back untying her top. She threw it off and laid down setting her bare breasts on Joey's chest. She wrapped her arms around him.

"So how long do you need to sunbathe now?" Joey asked.

"As long as it takes." Tea said laughing. "Think you can wait that long?"

Tea began smiling. Joey and her locked eyes, and Tea felt herself wrapping her legs around Joey's and rubbing her bare feet on his.

"I guess I've nothing else to do." Joey said with a smile.

With that they began making out. Tea pressed her lips down softly into Joey's as Joey did the same to Tea. Tea stopped for a second and pulled away. "Hey Joey?"

"Yes?" Joey asked.

Tea looked at him, remembering everything they did. Everything they went through back at home, from when they first meet, to when they began seeing each other, to that night out in the street.

"Thank you." Tea whispered.

Joey smiled. And he pulled Tea back down to him. They began kissing and making out again, wrapping each others arms and legs around them, pressing the lips and theirs tongues, further and more softly into each other. It wasn't long before Joey untied Tea's bottom piece and Tea pulled off Joey's swim trunks. They kissed harder and softly, more deeply, caressing each other's skins and rubbing each other. They had the whole week ahead of them to enjoy. Days in the hot sun and warm water filled with amazing days and nights of making sweet love. They were finally free to do anything they wanted with each other. Joey and Tea were together; and nothing and no one could ever separate them again.
