Seto: LIAR! You were just too lazy to type.

 

Wolf: yeah well... there was that..... Now... shout outs...

 

Katrina Kaiba: I know he's all evil, thanks, I was trying to keep him in character and I'm happy that u think it was ok, I was afraid that he would be a little OOC.

 

InsaneShadowFan: thanks 4 the criticism, its always appreciated, especially when ppl say what they don't like about it. I'll try to fix that up, tell me if this chap is any better... and I couldn't resist that shot at Joey with the dog thing.

Bad Luck

 

“What. An. Asshole!” Joey ground out through clenched teeth a short way along the uniform white corridor.

“Just ignore him,” Tristan said although he couldn't quite hide all the anger in his voice.

“That has ta be physically impossible,” Joey replied. [Yes, 2 big words in one sentence, a huge achievement for Joey]

Glynn noticed Ryou standing slightly off to the side of the group, as if uncertain what to do. She tried to catch is gaze but it seemed distant, like he wasn't really there. Pushing her curiosity about the boy's actions to the back of her mind, Glynn analyzed the whole situation, Tristan seemed the angriest, apart from Joey that is, and therefore she guessed that he was Joey's best friend. As far as Joey was concerned, Glynn thought that he was overreacting a little, after all, she had been called a lot worse.

 

Joey's bad mood continued through homeroom, in which he had to be forcefully restrained several times, and well into Chemistry where Joey used the lack of insults and body slams to catch up on sleep while Glynn took pity on her new friend and did most of his work. It was a short while into lunch before Kaiba came around to annoy Joey again.

“Dog,” he muttered as he walked past the table that the group was eating at.

“Come and say that ta my face moneybags!” Joey yelled, standing up so quickly that he spilt Tea's drink, causing the half empty can to fall into her lap.

While Glynn would have normally found that funny she was too preoccupied with the impending disaster to notice. As soon as Kaiba had stopped with Joey's yell she went into hyper-alert mode, she noticed every detail, from Joey's balled fists to the confident way that the cold teen stood, waiting for Joey to come at him. The room, which had a moment ago seemed loud enough to deafen people on the other side of the globe was now deathly silent, every eye trained on the pair now in the center of the room, one of whom was glaring at the other with unrestrained anger and hatred while the others blue eyes stared on with an icy indifference.

 

“They've never come to blows before,” Tea said, shock in every syllable.

`She couldn't see this coming?' Glynn wondered to herself, continuing to be amazed by the girl's apparent stupidity.

“Don't work Tea, rich-boy's got nothin on Joey,” Tristan stated confidently without taking his eyes of the pair that had began to circle, like caged animals.

“Hate to tell you this, but `Rich-boy's' gonna win,” Glynn said, riveted to the scene unfolding before them. She was already rather fond of Joey, but it was obvious from the way that Kaiba was moving that he was a better fighter than the blonde facing him.

“No way! Joeys gonna...” what Joey was going to do Glynn would never know, because at that moment Joey lunged at Kaiba who easily dodged that punch, following with one of his own that floored the poor brown eyed idiot.

“Shit,” Ryou said as Kaiba walked over to where Joey lay, obviously winded and clutching his stomach.

“You fight like you duel, come back when you learn how mutt,” he said before striding out the door, smirk back on his face.

“What's up his ass?” Glynn asked as the gang ran to check on Joey.

“What's wrong with Seto Kaiba? The greatest mystery of them all,” Ryou answered, having also hung back from the rest of the group, “most put it down to the death of his parents, but I'm not sure if that's all.”

“Go check on Joey, I gotta get ta Maths,” Glynn said, checking her watch, “C'ya later.”

Ryou waved and she exited the large room Via the same door as Kaiba had used, making her way to Maths C, the hardest Maths class that the school offered.

 

As she entered the class she noticed, to her dismay, that the only seat left was next to Seto Kaiba himself. It wasn't until she had sat down that he even acknowledged her presence.

“What the fuck do you want?” he snapped.

`What lovely manners,' Glynn thought sarcastically, “there's no other seats,” she said, not looking at him.

He merely returned to his work and Glynn, assuming that it meant he didn't give a shit, took out her Maths book and began the work already on the board.

 

Twenty minutes later Glynn put down her pen and looked over her work. She had completed a full lessons work in a quarter of the time given for it, but that wasn't anything new. The rest of the class seemed not to be even past the third question and seeing the note on the board that stated any time left over once the work had been completed was their own, she packed up her Maths stuff and pulled out an old, black, leather bound notebook and her black and red laptop. Less than a minute later Seto did the same thing, pulling out a professional looking white and blue laptop and beginning to type rather quickly, barely looking at the keyboard. Sneaking a look at his screen, Glynn noticed an assortment of signs, numbers and words, and assuming that it was a program of some sort and unconsciously noting that the guy was not only a cold anti-social bastard, but a work-a-holic as well, she opened her notebook and flicked through until she found the page she was looking for and began to type out what was written there.

 

Nothing Hurts

 

Nothing hurts anymore,

Sorrow, pain or fear,

They will not affect me,

I refuse to shed a single tear.

 

Walls to block emotion,

On the inside and out,

I'm frozen inside and,

Living in constant doubt.

 

Life without reason,

Purpose plan or aim,

Every hope shattered,

From living a life of pain.

 

Growing up too quickly,

Looking to day with dread,

`Cause nothing really hurts,

When you're already dead.

 

“A little over-dramatic, don't you think?” Seto asked his trademark smirk in place.

Glynn jumped in shock and slammed both her notebook and laptop shut.

“How much did you read?” Glynn asked, giving him a glare that could melt an iceberg.

“All of it, unless there's any more?” he said, “Very dark, I bet you spent hours thinking up that little scenario.”

“Don't talk about things you couldn't possibly understand,” she spat icily back.

“Awww, did I hurt the poor little girls feeling?” he asked with mock concern.

“You self-centered, egotistical bastard! Putting other people down make you feel important?” she asked, her own anger being replaced by a cold and steady glare of her own.

“Don't talk about things you couldn't possibly understand,” he said, mimicking her earlier retort.

“Fuck-head,” she said.

He smirked and continued on with his work, neither made another sound until the end of the lesson which Glynn left outwardly calm but inwardly seething. Not only angry at Seto but at herself for letting him get to her, letting him provoke her into an argument. How she wanted to smash that face of his, but as she walked over to English she calmed down a little and by the time she had entered the class she was filled with a sense of accomplishment, she had managed to make her first enemy and school wasn't even finished yet.
