Joey: what do you know she knows that it's not that interesting.

LOTSHA: Joey will you ever stop being mean to me*runs from the room crying*

Yugi, Tristen, Tea, Mai, Yami and Sere: Joey go apologize to her.

Joey: oops forgot about that

Joey*sits down and puts his arm around LOTSHA*: I'm not here to poke fun LOTSHA I'm here to apologize

LOTSHA: apologize? *Looks bewildered* you why you never apologize

Joey: I was wrong your fic isn't that bad it just needs for action that's all.

LOTSHA*looks at Joey funny for a minute than laughs*: Mai threatened you didn't she.

Joey*sighs*: yeah

LOTSHA: I knew it oh and don't worry Joey there will be more action later trust me*grins evilly*

Joey: gee I dunno if I should be happy or scared.

LOTSHA: with me you never know how you should act*Whispers* now if I could only get up the nerve to write that lemon*looks at readers* have no fear I will try.

Joey and LOTSHA*come back into the room LOTSHA is smiling*: ok lets write this chapter.

Mai*whispers as Joey sits with her*: that wasn't so hard was it.

Joey: guess not.

LOTSHA*calls to Joey*: would you please tell them*looks at readers*

Joey: huh oh right{AN: ever notice how often I use the word huh?} SCB does not own Yugioh she will never own Yugioh no matter how hard she tries. She does however own Sere and her band so no copying that's stealing.

LOTSHA: thank you Joey

***Duel Mistress***

Sere's POV

The class immediately got to work and I sat with Yugi and his friends watching them play with their instruments. Yugi played the Sax, Joey played the drums, Ryou played the keyboard, Tristen played the bass guitar, Seto played the guitar and Tea and Mai sang. They were pretty good but Joey kept messing up the beat. When they finished I was in hysterics.

"What's so funny Sere?" said Joey annoyed.

"Well it's that you kept missing beats, Tea sang off key for a minute or two, Yugi screeched and Tristen missed his cord. Seto, Ryou and Mai however were right on." I said still in hysterics.

"You know," said Seto. "I think she's right, she usually is when it comes to music."

"Well than by all means please show us how it's done Little-Miss-Perfect." Joey replied in a huff.

"Ok than I will how does the song go?" I asked. {AN: I am using the song "It's a New Day" from Sailor Moon for them cause I know the words off by heart. Sailor Moon has full rights to this song so as much as you'd like to you can't sue me.}

"Ok." Said Yugi setting his Sax down and grabbing some sheet music and lyrics.

"Hmm," I said looking it over. "Not a bad song."

"Glad you approve." Said Joey sarcastically.

"Let me see" I said ignoring Joey, "May I see your Sax Yugi?"

"You can play the sax?" he asked, "I thought you played the guitar."

"I do but I can play the sax a bit, may I see it?" I replied.

"Uh sure go ahead." He said handing over the Sax.

"Let's see," I looked at the sheet music Yugi handed me, "I goes just how it looks?" he nodded so I used his sax to play it and reading the notes properly I played it with some mistakes. "is that about how it's supposed to go?" he nodded again awed. " You need bigger breaths Yugi, my friend Casey plays the sax she's teaching me some" He nodded and replayed his part.

"Wow that was good." Said Tea.

"Oh thanks." I said smiling cheerfully.

"You think you can help me?" she asked.

"Sure you were only off key slightly." I said.

"Ok what should I do?" she asked.

"Well sing the opening lines like you normally do." I instructed.

"Ok," she cleared her throat and sang, "Got up this morning on the right side of my bed, with all these crazy thoughts screaming through my head…" I held up my hand to stop her.

"I see what you're doing wrong. "I said frowning, "Mai sing the opening lines."

"Got up this morning on the right side of my bed, with all these crazy thoughts screaming through my head…" she stopped and looked at me.

"That sounded perfect see Tea," I turned to her, "you were trying to sing higher than you're capable of. See what I mean?"

"I think so let me try again," she cleared her throat "Got up this morning on the right side of my bed, with all these crazy thoughts screaming through my head…" she sang it flawlessly.

"Perfect." We all said.

"Yay." She said.

"Now Joey what does your part sound like?" I asked sweetly knowing he didn't want my help. He shoved his sheet music at me. "Hmm, that's not too difficult."

"Humph," was all Joey said.

"Here I'll show you." I took Joey's Drumsticks but he refused to get up so I did the only thing I could I sat on his lap causing him to gasp. "Just watch me."

"I'm watching, I'm watching." He mumbled not taking his eyes off me. I looked at his sheet again and played each beat in rhythm.

"See not too hard is it," I asked turning to look at him. Yugi and Tristen laughed at the look on Joey's face. He was staring at me wide eyed. I just sighed, handed him the drumsticks and put my hands over his and instructed him with each beat how hard to hit it.

Joey's POV

`Whoa for a shy girl she sure is forceful but really nice and kinda cute wait I like Mai I can't be thinking like this' I thought confused. `She's good at this, pay attention to what she's saying, she is TRYING to help you be a better musician concentrate.' I scolded. So I turned by attention to what she was showing me finding it interesting that she knew how to play it so quickly. I finally got my mind off of Mai and concentrated on what she was showing me.

Sere's POV

`Finally he's listening to me and not off in his own world' I thought and repeated what I did over and over until he could do it himself.

"There that wasn't so hard was it?" I asked smirking knowing why it took so long for him to figure it out.

"Uhh guess not." He said.

"How long it takes for him to learns depends on when he can get his mind off of girls." Said Tristen.

"Agreed," said Mai. I laughed `she likes Joey' I thought thinking back to what Joey has been thinking about.

"Shut up Tristen you may find it hard to concentrate too with a girl sitting on YOUR lap." He sneered. I just stood up, started to laugh and tweaked his cheek.

"Thanks cutie." Was all I said before turning my attention to Tristen to help him. "Your turn." He held out his bass guitar and I inspected it tuning it properly for him. He handed me his sheet music and I fiddled with the cords before playing it. When I was done I handed it back to him and said.

"You keep missing this cord, and than hurrying to catch up." He nodded and under my instruction he replayed it without any mistakes. "Perfect Tristen." He grinned,

"Thanks." He said.

"Now try your song again and remember what I told you guys ok, I hope it helps I'm not the best at you guy's instruments but I try." They nodded and started to play Tea and Mai each took a deep breath and started to sing.

"Got up this morning,
On the right side of my bed,
With all these crazy thoughts,
Screaming through my head,

I can't wait to see,
What this world holds for me.

Oh, it's a new day.
Oh, it's a new day.

And when I see you
Any time or any place,
You are the reason,
For the smile on my face.

'Cause you make me feel,
All my dreams can be real.

Oh, it's a new day.
Oh, it's a new day,

It feels so good to be alive,
Even if a little rain should fall,
'Cause every moment,
Brings a new surprise to us all."

Yugi's Sax Solo

"Oh, it's a new day.
Oh, it's a new day.
Oh, it's a new day.
Oh, it's a new day.

Here in you I found a friend,
you'll be with me till the end.

Oh, it's a new day."

They finished and I clapped loudly.

"That was amazing you guys." I cheered.

"Yeah that did sound better." Said Mai.

"Well you can trust Sere to help." Said Seto grinning, "she always tries to help people to the best of her abilities."

"Yeah thanks Sere." Said Tristen.

"Uh welcome." I said blushing embarrassed when the teacher announced that class was over. I walked between Tea and Mai and after a few moments asked,

"Look you guys um I wanna know do you have a problem with me?"

"No why." They replied stiffly.

"Well it's you keep glaring at me whenever I talk to Yugi or Joey." I said. "I mean if you guys are dating them and think I'm flirting I'm not."

"We're not dating them we just umm like them a little." Said Tea.

Mai snorted, "understatement. We're like in love with them."

"Oh um I'm sorry I didn't mean to…" I started but Mai interrupted.

"No it's ok it's not your fault that you're so sweet and they like you." She said. "Do you like them?"

"Well not that way actually I think that Ryou is well…" I couldn't finish.

"Ryou really?" said Tea, "he's a good choice he's sweet, cute, smart and loyal."

"Yeah," said Mai, "if you want him go for it."

"Umm thanks." I said already planning something.

`They like Yugi and Joey, and Joey and Yugi like them time to play matchmaker.' I thought giggling evilly.
