…Arising Conflicts…
Yugi glanced around the small classroom with suspicious eyes. One side of the room sat a fuming Jounouchi, the other a silent Ryou, and then in the back a frowning Malik. What was wrong with all of his friends? Yesterday had been so awkward and today seemed no different. The amethyst-eyed boy tapped on his desk impatiently and then turned his innocent eyes to the white circle plastered on the light blue walls above his teacher's head. The bell rang with a violent sound, making more than half of the student body jump in surprise. As students filed out of the room lazily, Yugi pulled a distracted Jou towards him.
“Jou,” Yugi said causing the sharp, honey brown eyes to look at him. “Is something wrong?” Yugi asked, concern slipping into his voice. The brown eyes softened and a small smile found its way onto Jou's face.
“I'm fine Yuge,” Jou said and then suddenly his face hardened again. “There's just this guy that's bothering me. Because of him, I got detention…again.”
Yugi smiled brightly. “Oh, okay Jou. Just ignore him, then he'll leave you alone,” the smaller of the two advised. Jou nodded in agreement and patted Yugi on the back.
“Thanks buddy. You always make me feel better!” Jou said and ruffled the boy's hair roughly.
“Jou!” Yugi protested as he slid away from the blonde's grasp. Jou stopped suddenly and Yugi followed his friend's eyes until his own landed on a taller youth with handsome crimson-eyes.
“Hi Yami,” Yugi said with a good-natured tone. Yami smiled in response.
“Good morning Little One,” Yami said politely and the other boy blushed slightly at the nickname. Jou, on the other hand, did not look pleased. There was something about the other boy that Jou didn't like. He didn't trust him at all.
“Who are you?” Jou said rudely. Yami's eyes narrowed slightly at the blonde and Yugi, sensing trouble arising, quickly interrupted.
“Jou, this is Yami,” Yugi said gesturing to the teen. “He's new here. I'm showing him to all his classes.”
Jou growled. “Why?” the blonde scoffed. “He looks perfectly capable of finding his own classes.”
Yugi frowned slightly at Jou's remark but Yami, unexpectedly, smirked. He noticed the blonde as the Kaiba's target. “It just happens,” Yami said slowly, wrapping his arms around Yugi's small waist and pulling the boy, who was blushing furiously at the contact, towards him and away from the blonde. “That I like having Yugi show me around. He's very kind,” Yami said with a humorous glint in his crimson orbs. Jou scowled as he glared at Yami's arm that continued to intertwine themselves around his small friend's waist. Yugi was beyond uncomfortable.
“Yami, we should go,” Yugi urged and pushed the taller one towards the door. “See you at lunch,” Yugi said turning to Jou once more before finally leaving the room. Jou continued to glare in the direction that the two boys left but jumped when he heard the bell ring again.
“You friend is very odd,” Yami mused as he began to walk down the hallway besides Yugi. The smaller nodded.
“He's just very protective. He's like a big brother,” Yugi explained. “He just wants to look out for me.” Yami nodded and then glanced over to the other. Already, Yami had become very familiar with that bright smile that Yugi always seemed to wear. `How could someone be so happy all the time?' Yami asked himself and then smiled slightly. `It's going to be a shame to kill such a precious boy like him,' Yami said in his head. `But it's all part of the job.'
However, he did have to watch out for that blonde. Yami didn't need any attention, especially from one of Yugi's friends. And for some reason or another, that boy was very suspicious of him.
Yami looked down when he felt a small tug on his sleeve and looked down as dark crimson met with lovely amethyst. Yami suddenly felt a sharp pang in his chest but quickly shook it off without even a second thought.
“Yes?” Yami said quietly. Yugi pointed the door next to them. “This is art class,” Yugi said with a smile. Yami looked at the door and then back at Yugi.
“Great,” Yami said sarcastically and then, after holding the door open for the smaller of the two, walked in. He thought back to a few seconds ago when he and Yugi's eyes had met. Something caught his attention. It looked as though for a moment, Yugi's eyes held something…dark inside of them. Something sinister…Yami laughed in his head. Something sinister? About Yugi? Ha! Wow was he imagining things today!
…
Malik sighed regretfully. He had been such a rude prick to everyone yesterday. Even to his friends. It was all because of Isis, his older sister. She had punished him like a child the other day and, as a result, Malik had behaved very poorly to those around him. He had even snapped at Ryou and Yugi! Oh man did he feel guilty. However, he planned to make it all up to everyone he had flipped out on.
The platinum haired boy looked up as every student walked into class. He spotted a wild mane of blonde not to far away from him and let out a long sigh. There was the first person he had to apologize to. Even though Malik was not the one to say sorry, he knew that what he had done yesterday was uncalled for so he was willing to suck it up and apologize.
Once the teacher had instructed everyone to pair up with their partners, Malik quickly made his way next to the boy who looked so much like him and sat down beside him. “Hi,” Malik said slowly only to get no response from the person next to him.
Malik nodded in understanding. “Listen, I'm sorry about yesterday—“
The purple-eyed boy was abruptly cut off by Marik's indignant voice. “So the fuck what?” Marik mocked sinisterly not even raising his gaze to meet the others.
Malik was slightly taken aback. “Look, I know you're pissed at me for yesterday and you have every right to be—“
“You're damn right,” Marik scoffed.
Malik slightly narrowed his eyes at the other boy's constant interruptions. “Anyways, I'm sorry. I was just having a bad day. I didn't mean to take it out on you,” Malik said as he clenched his fist under the table. It was not that easy to apologize, especially to a jerk like the teen next to him.
The other finally looked at him with slightly annoyed eyes. In all honesty, Marik wanted to kill Malik right then and there and by the look of it the feelings were mutual, however, the taller of the two thought better of it and instead just nodded.
“Okay,” was all Marik said.
Malik took a deep breath. `Well, thank Ra that torture was over,' he thought to himself.
Now, if only he could find his friends…
…
Bakura glared at the back of his target's head and all Ryou could do was shrink further and further into his seat as he felt Bakura's dark brown eyes pierce right through him.
For the past two classes, Bakura had been trying to get the other to talk to him but, of course, he would have to go and say something stupid that would only scare the smaller away.
It was now third period and Bakura was becoming extremely annoyed. He was starting to like Marik's point of view and wanted to just kill the four boys and get it over with but he knew he couldn't do that, much to his dismay.
At least he had gotten the other to talk to him long enough for the innocent boy to tell him his name, even though he knew it anyway.
Bakura's glare turned when a giggling girl took a seat next to him.
“Hi,” the brunette girl said happily.
Bakura flinched at the girl's high-pitched voice. “What do you want?” Bakura hissed.
The brunette didn't even seem to take notice of the threatening manner Bakura talked to her in.
“My name is—“
Bakura stopped her at once. “I don't care! Go find some other person to harass!” Bakura whispered viciously.
The girl stopped for a moment but then laughed: “Oh, so you want to play hard to get?”
Bakura turned on her at once grabbing the dagger from his pocket but right before he could do anything stupid, someone grabbed his arm harshly…
…TBC…
