Atem felt his skin tingling when the doctor touched his hand, as well as butterflies when she squeezed it. For the longest time he had believed he was aggressive with those people to obtain justice, and it brought relief to his soul to know she saw it the same way. After all, when not having to punish evildoers, he was generally a sweetheart. He stiffened a little when he realized Roxy's head was resting on his knee, but relaxed and glanced up at Angela, smiling slightly. "Thank you Angela. You have no idea how much those words mean to me."

Angela gave him a smile. "Your welcome, Atem."
Roxy's tail began to wag, yet she didn't remove her head from his knee. Angela giggled. "I think she's worried about you. Just give her a pet on the head."

Atem raised an eyebrow slightly and was a bit amused at how Roxy decided to use his knee as his pillow. "Very well." He tentatively lifted a hand, rested it on her head and stroked it a bit. Inwardly he was rolling his eyes and going, 'How do I let myself be talked into this? '. He then removed his hand off her head just in case she had something mischievous in mind.

Roxy removed her head from his knee and panted happily. She got her pat on her head from the guest...now she was content.
Angela patted her leg, making Roxy come over to her and give Atem a break. "I think she's pleased you've finally pet her. Remember she's a therapy dog...so she's trained to go to those who need comfort." She chuckled. "She's helped me even when I don't realize I need it."
Angela had another cookie, "Would you like to watch a movie with me? Or would you rather just get cleaned up and do your own thing?"

Atem forced a smile at the idea of making Roxy happy, but he realized there might be more to her than what he originally thought. He considered Angela's offer. He was always the person to thrive on "me" time when not with Yugi and his other friends, but being with Angela had brought comfort to him in a way he couldn't explain. He poured out most of his innermost feelings and it helped."I would love to watch a movie. Which one did you have in mind?"

"Well, I know you like fantasy...and I'd like to watch the 'Princess Bride'. I love that movie, and I haven't seen it in a while." Angela admitted. "Or we could watch something else like maybe like 'Eragon' or perhaps 'Brave'? You pick."

Atem scrunched up his forehead in thought. What he did know of Princess Bride was it had a touch of romance. Romance wasn't really his cup of tea but he was learning to appreciate it and plus he knew how to compromise when the situation called for it. "Well we can see your favorite first and afterwards I would like to watch Eragon if that's all right with you."

"Then Princess Bride it is."
Angela led the way to the couch with the tea and cookies, before looking for the movie. "I know it was around here...aha! There you are." She put it in the DVD player and sat on the couch, with Roxy on one side. Angela patted the other side. "Sit down, dear pharaoh."

Atem laughed lightly, utterly amused by Angela's antics. He could feel himself being influenced by her. "Of course, milady." He sat down as instructed and crossed one leg over the other, waiting for the movie to begin.

During the movie, Angela found her emotions towards Atem grow stronger. It was as if...there was a string or cord that kept pulling her to him. And it was getting harder and harder to ignore.
She found herself laughing with him during the movie, and how her heart fluttered when she imagined herself as Buttercup and Atem as Wesley kissing at the end. "Why am I still having these thoughts?"

(kk have fun)
Atem focused his mind on the movie, watching very extensively. He had to admit, he enjoyed it considering he wasn't watching his favorite genre and there were several amusing scenes. But then again, he wasn't a huge movie watcher to begin with, so he hadn't seen enough to come across any he would label as particularly bad. There were several instances where he felt the urge to reach over and hold Angela's hand but he didn't do it for fear of scaring her off. Not to mention he was not particularly affectionate or touchy-feely. The most he did was the resting the hand on someone's shoulders for comfort or reassurance thing, if not handshakes or high fives. He let out a soft sigh. 'What is it about her that makes me have these urges? Is it love?' He pondered that possibility for a second before deciding no way, since he had just met her. Not that he objected to having a woman in his life, but he wanted to take it a step at a time..yet he could not deny he felt something for her.
When the movie was over he turned to face her. "I can tell you most certainly did enjoy this movie."

"Oh yes." She replied, getting up to take out the movie. "I love this movie; besides Disney I grew up watching it. Over and over again."
Angela turned when she heard a small 'woof' and saw Roxy asleep with her head on the arm of the couch, and sprawled out. She chuckled, then pulled out 'Eragon' and put it in.
"Do you mind if I have permission sit next to you? Roxy seems to have taken my spot."

Atem shook his head. "Not at all. Go ahead. " He scooted over a bit to make room for Angela. He had come to enjoy her warmth. He was just concerned about whether he would be able to control himself for much longer. It scared him since he generally had very strong willpower.

Angela tried to keep her heart steady as she sat next to the former pharaoh. During the part of when Saphira hatched, Angela couldn't help but let an 'aww'. She couldn't help it...the baby dragon was just too cute.
However when the Ra'zac appeared she hid her face in Atem's shoulder. Shuddering when she heard the Ra'zac's cry...made her think of a demon from the Black Forest or Moors. "Those screams make me think of what a Banshee would sound like." Angela muttered. She suddenly she realized that her head was buried in Atem's shoulder, and immediately let go. "Sorry."

Atem was so engrossed in the movie at first he didn't notice it when Angela rested her head on his shoulder. When he did realize it, though, he looked a bit flustered, but allowed her to keep it there. It felt rather nice and his heart proceeded to race. He chuckled at her comment about Ra'zac's scream. He hid his disappointment at when Angela removed her forehead from his shoulder. "No, you're fine..I actually, rather liked it."
