A/N: This was supposed to be a Christmas one-shot, but I now have the makings of a full length fic (or so we hope). I apologize to those of you who were looking for the Christmas one-shot. I'm still going to have my Christmas one-shot, but it's going to be a part of this story. With that said, happy reading!
Chapter One – Waiting
Alexis waited out in a clearing in the woods, sitting on a blanket that was spread on the ground with nice picnic lunch laid out before her that was meant for two. The pretty blonde wasn't eating; she was waiting on her boyfriend, Jaden Yuki. He was supposed to have been there a half a hour ago. She hoped he was going to get there soon. Could he be…? He had better not be…! He knew we had a date today! He knew!
Suddenly a bell rang in the distance signaling the end of the lunch period. Alexis packed up her stuff, and headed back to class with a mixture of sadness and anger radiating from her like heat from a furnace. Jaden had better have a real good excuse…
Elsewhere….
Jaden shouted it in triumph, "Yeah! And that's game!"
The brown-haired Slifer's opponent was a high ranking Ra Yellow student who smiled at Jaden as he clasped Jaden's hand as he stated that their duel had been a good duel. As the Ra Yellow student departed, Syrus and Chumley, Jaden's friends and roommates, congratulated their friend.
Suddenly the bell rang signaling the end of the lunch period. Chumley started to complain that they hadn't even had a chance to get any lunch. Jaden's eyes got real wide at the mention of lunch. "What's wrong, Jay," asked Syrus.
"Oh, no….! Alexis is going to be so ticked off!"
"What are you talking about?"
"Alexis and I were supposed to have a lunch date today!"
Syrus thought for a moment, "Well, all you can do is apologize. You didn't realize the duel was going to take that long."
Chumley nodded, "Yeah, you can tell her that and you won't be lying."
Jaden thought about it and realized that there was nothing he could do, but do as his friends suggested. They were right. He hadn't realized that the duel was going to take that long. Alexis would forgive him, wouldn't she?
In class….
After everyone had made it to their seats Professor Banner stood before the class with two teenage girls standing patiently beside him. The raven-haired professor cleared his throat as he addressed his students, "Everyone, we have two new students I would like you to meet: Lisa Woodley and Caitlin Enelya. They just arrived a few hours ago, and they are going to stay in the Slifer Red dorm until they test to see if they will proceed to the next level."
Syrus Truesdale's heart skipped a beat as he silently stared at the lovely dark blonde girl. He took every feature that he could see from the distance he was at. Her hair fell just below her tanned shoulders. Her uniform he saw was like Alexis's except it was red and white. Wow, she's gorgeous! She's more beautiful than Dark Magician Girl!
Jaden was hardly paying any attention. His gaze shifting over to the Obelisk Blue section in search of Alexis, but Jaden noticed something in the Ra Yellow section that made him do a double take.
Bastian Misawa, another good friend and rival of Jaden's, was staring at one of the girls down front with his mouth hanging wide open! Hm… Bastian's got a crush! Jaden wadded up a piece of scratch paper and threw it at Bastian, hitting the Ra Yellow student upside his head. He snapped his attention towards the culprit who threw the paper ball. When he realized it was his brown-haired Slifer friend, he nodded his thanks. After Jaden turned his attention to the front once again, Bastian checked to make sure he hadn't drooled on himself, the desk, or anything else for that matter.
That was embarrassing! Hopefully no one but Jaden saw that.
The Ra Yellow student glanced around at his classmates. No one else had seemed to notice. Once Bastian was satisfied that no one had seen his improper behavior, he turned his attention back to the new girl he had been staring at, Lisa.
The two girls were now seated, but Bastian could see the back of Lisa's short gold hair. He had not been able to see her very well, but he could see that she too was wearing a uniform identical to the one Caitlin was wearing. The Ra Yellow student observed that Lisa's skin was pale compared to the dark blonde-headed girl, but she did not look ill or anything of that nature. Well, Miss Woodley, I'll have to make your acquaintance after class, as in immediately after class!
A/N: A special thank you to my editor, Raymanly73! Thank you so much for all your help. I feel that "thank you" doesn't cut it, but yet that's all I know of to say. Thank you too, Lisa! Thanks to you and Raymanly73, I have ideas for future chapters! To my readers, I hope you enjoyed this. Hopefully there will be more to add soon. Until then, God bless!
