Kilala6: Sup? Okay, This first chapter isn't very good, but I promise it'll get better. Please read and review, and no flamers.

Ryou was lying on his bed staring blankly at his ceiling it had been a long week, with the finals and the school burning down. School had been canceled until they could rebuild it, the principle didn't know who started the fire. but Ryou did. His Yami sat on the couch flipping through the channels on the television set.

Bakura: Damn modern day entertainment, they could at least have something good on (he lists the channels one by one) Iraq, Iraq, war, war, war, Iraq, sitcom, cartoons, Iraq, how can my stupid aibou watch this?

Ryou was bored out of his mind, like any normal teenager, he didn't love school, but it gave him something to do. He wasn't really part of Yugi's group of friends, and he had none of his own. Ryou walked down the stairs and sat next to his Yami.

Ryou: What's on?

Bakura: Iraq, is that all you people talk about?

Ryou: No, but it's important to know, especially since my home is in alliance with America, yah know

Bakura: Whatever, I'm bored

Ryou: yeah, I think that's the first time I agreed with you

Bakura: Whatever, go get me something to drink

Ryou stood up and ran off to the kitchen. He put a glass under the sink and turned the water on. While the glass was filling he looked out the window. The sun was bright and brilliant, maybe a bit too hot; he looked down then looked back up as something caught his eye.

A pretty girl about his age walked by wearing a school uniform.

Ryou: (why would she be wearing a uniform? There's no school)

He ignored his curiosity and brought his Yami the water along with a bag of chips for himself

Bakura: I wonder. how long do you think it will take to rebuild the school?

Ryou: I don't know, you didn't have to burn it down

Bakura: But I did, it was blocking my sunlight

Ryou: Do you know how much summer vacation we're going to lose?

Bakura: So?

Ryou: So when it gets just hot enough everyone will go swimming, and there will be ice cream and beach parties

Bakura: So what? No one invites you to their parties

Ryou: So? I bet Yugi would

Bakura: Yugi couldn't throw a party if his puny life depended on it

Ryou: You know. I saw a girl wearing a school uniform

Bakura: Weird, oh well, she's probably a bookworm

Ryou: What's wrong with books?

Bakura: Nothing, nerd

Ryou: Oh whatever, I'm going to call Tea and see what she's up to

Ryou walked over to the phone and picked it up. He quickly dialed Tea's number and held the phone up to his ear.

.ring.ring.ring.

Tea: Hello?

Ryou: Hello Tea

Tea: who's this?

Ryou: It's me, Ryou

Tea: Oh hi Ryou, I was just gonna call you our pool is finished!!! My mom said I could invite everyone from my class over, so you can come, you can come at two okay?

Ryou: I'd love to, but I have one problem

Tea: Oh, you can bring him too; I don't think he's as big a threat as he wants to be

Ryou: well okay, I'll see you then bye

Tea: Bye

Ryou hung up the phone and walked back to his Yami

Ryou: were invited to a pool party at Tea's, I told you I could get invited to a party

Bakura: Of course miss-shining friendship will invite everyone who lives in a hundred mile radius

Ryou: Don't mock my friends

Bakura: whatever

It was Tuesday afternoon. Tea was furiously setting the scene for her pool party. She had a piece of paper in her hand and a pen behind her ear.

Tea: Beach ball. check, food and drinks. check, pool chairs. check, towels. check

Tea heard a knock on the gate and looked down to see Yugi

Tea: Hello Yugi

Yugi: Hi Tea

Yami: Hello

Tea: Hey you two, you can go change into your trunks in the bathroom okay

Yugi; okay, I'll go first you wait here Yami

Yami: Okay

Tea tried to open a conversation with Yami

Tea: So can you swim?

Yami: Kind of

Tea: It's real fun, it's like dancing in the water

Yami: Then you must be good at it Tea

Tea: No, I really suck

Yami smiled and heard another knock on the gate. Tea opened it up to see Joey, Tristan and Serenity. They were already in their swimsuits. Joey was wearing shorts with fish on them, while Tristan's had birds. Serenity was wearing a pink two-piece, which was a bit more acceptable. Just then Yugi ran up to them in his dark blue swim trunks.

Yugi: Hi guys

Joey: Hey Yugh, you're really stylin there

Yugi: (looking at Joeys shorts) You too Joey.

Tristan: Hey where's Yami?

Yugi: He went to change

Tristan: Oh, Hey Tea, have you seen that new girl?

Tea: No, who is she?

Tristan: Her name's Akira, she moved here from America, I heard she was really cute

Tea: Well I'd like to meet her; maybe someone I invited invited her.

Tristan: Probably

Just then they heard another knock on the gate. Tea opened it to see Ryou and Bakura. They were both wearing white tank tops and dark blue jeans.

Tea: Are you two gonna swim in that?

Ryou: Yes, thank you, I'm really not comfortable shirtless in front of a crowd

Bakura: Baby

Tea: And you Bakura?

Bakura: He made me wear this so he wouldn't stand out.

Tea: That's cute, now come on you guys

Tea grabbed Ryou's arm and pulled him into the backyard.

Tea: I can't wait until everyone else gets here. Tea heard another knock and opened the gate. There stood Seto Kaiba and Mokuba.

Tea: Kaiba?

Seto: Well I was invited

Tea: I didn't think you would come

Seto: Mokuba wanted to come

Mokuba: I love swimming!!!

Mokuba was wearing duck shorts and Kaiba wore his normal clothes.

Kaiba: I will not take part in your childish festivities

Tea: whatever. party pooper

Tea heard another knock on the door. She opened it and looked straight forward, everyone let out a gasp.

Malik: What?

Tea: Malik?

Malik: Miss Shining Friendship?

Isis: Now, now, hello Tea, Bakura invited Malik here.

Bakura: Hello Malik

Malik: How many of her guests do you think we can drown?

Bakura: All of them

Malik: Ha! You're probably right!!

Tea: No you don't, if you two cause any trouble I'll.I'll.

Malik: You'll what? Bore us with one of your speeches?

Bakura: She should run for president

Malik: No one would vote for her

Bakura: Yeah, but if we were lucky she'd be assassinated

Tea: You two!!! Cut it out!!!

Ryou walked over to open the gate for the next guest. There stood a girl about his age with medium length blonde hair and big blue eyes. He recognized her as the girl he'd seen before.

Ryou: Hello, who are you?

Akira: I'm Akira, I just moved here from America

Ryou: Oh, you're that new girl everyone is talking about, come on in.

Ryou held the gate open for her and she walked in.

Akira: Is there a place I can change?

Yugi: Here, I'll show you

When Yugi grabbed her wrist to lead her to the bathroom he noticed a strange bracelet around it.

Yugi: (It has the same symbol as my puzzle) Hey, where did you get that bracelet?

Akira: My father gave it to me

Yugi: (Huh? Maybe it's just a trinket, anyway there are only seven items) Oh that's cool

Yugi led her to the bathroom and waited outside the door for her, he officially authorized himself as her tour guide. Akira walked out. She was wearing a red two-piece, she looked really cute.

Yugi: Are you ready?

Akira: yeah

Yugi and Akira walked out of the house. Akira noticed Ryou who was hovering over the edge of the pool. She walked over and sat next to him.

Akira: Why are you sitting here all alone?

Ryou: I'm trying to decide if I should go in or not.

Akira: Go ahead

Akira dipped her right foot into the water and moved it back and forth.

Akira: It's nice and warm

Ryou: I know, I'm just not fond of swimming

Akira: Oh

Akira placed her other foot in the water and slid into the pool. She looked up at Ryou and smiled.

Akira: Come on

Ryou: I.

Akira grabbed his hand and pulled him into the water, he fell headfirst and resurfaced gasping for air.

Ryou: Why'd you do that?

Akira: I'm sorry, I just wanted someone to come in with me

Ryou climbed out of the pool and wrung his hair out. He looked angrily at Akira.

Ryou: I didn't want to go in

He walked off toward the snack table leaving Akira confused.

That night everyone sat around a glowing fire. Mai had come to join them.

Tea: Let's play spin the bottle!

Malik: What's that?

Bakura: Yeah, last time we played a game I ended up hiding in a bush for five hours.

Tea: You'll find out

Joey took an empty root beer bottle from the table and spun it around in a circle

Joey: I'll go first

The bottle kept spinning and landed on Mai

Joey: YES!

Mai: Huh?

Joey: Um. at least it's not Malik

Joey walked over to Mai and kissed her quickly on the lips. She blushed and picked up the bottle.

Mai: Okay, I want to see you go Malik

Malik: I'm not kissing anyone

Mai: Come n, it's just fun. and I'm sure all the girls here wouldn't mind.

Malik: Yeah right, they all fear me

Mai: why? You're so damn hot

Malik: Huh?

Mai: Whatever spin it

Malik reluctantly took the bottle and spun it around. he watched as it went slower and slower and finally it landed on. Isis

Malik: My sister?

Mai: Boring!!!

Isis quickly gave her brother a kiss on the cheek and took the bottle

Isis: Okay, let me spin it

Isis spun the bottle and watched as it landed on. Seto Kaiba? Kaiba wasn't even paying attention, he was sort of spaced out. Isis tapped him on the shoulder causing him to regain consciousness, he looked up only for a second to feel Isis's lips touch his, she pulled away after a few seconds and everyone laughed at Kaiba's faceless expression.

Seto: What the hell was that for?

Isis: We're playing spin the bottle

Seto: What?

Isis: Hey Akira, it's your turn

Isis smiled and handed the bottle to Akira. She was nervous since she really didn't know anyone there. Akira spun the bottle in a circle and it landed on. Ryou. She looked up at him. She wondered if he was still mad at her. She blushed and crawled over to Ryou. He looked up at her and blushed as she kissed him lightly on the cheek. She sat back down and looked down at her feet.

That night everyone slept outside. They had a small fire and Tea brought some blankets out.

Tea: Okay you guys, There's only enough blankets for half of us so. we'll make it a game.

Malik: No more games!!!

Tristan: Uh oh.

Tea: I have written all of your names on a piece of paper and put them into a basket. One of you has to come up and draw a name, then you have to sleep with that person.

Malik: NO WAY!!!!

Tea: Oh don't worry, I'm sure if you wish really hard you will get to sleep with a guy

Malik: What?

Tea: Okay never mind

Everyone drew names, The pairings were Tea and Yugi, Yami and Serenity, Joey and Mai, Tristan and Bakura, Malik and Mokuba, Seto and Isis, and Ryou and Akira.

Malik was happy he didn't end up with an older guy so they wouldn't call him gay, and that he didn't end up with a girl because they would make fun of him, but Mokuba was being really annoying.

Mokuba: Hey did you dye your hair?

Malik: No

Mokuba: Then why's it blonde?

Malik: It's called DNA

Mokuba: I know that, but I've never seen a tan person with blonde hair before

Ryou laid under the blanket with Akira, she didn't face him because she still thought he was mad at her.

Akira: I'm sorry.

Ryou: About what?

Akira: I pulled you into the pool

Ryou: Oh. I don't mind it's okay.

Akira started to cry. Ryou placed his hand on her shoulder.

Ryou: I said it's okay, why are you crying?

Akira turned towards him. My parents died and my only living relative lived here. He, he's very mean, and I'm having trouble making friends, I always have.

Ryou: How is your uncle mean?

Akira showed him a large bruise on her leg.

Akira: He hit me with a shoe, because I called one of my friends in America.

Ryou: Well if you can find someone else.

Akira: There is no one else

Ryou: But if you did, you could get a restraining order or something

Akira: No one would take me.

Ryou: I could ask my mom, she would, she's very nice

Akira smiled and wiped the tears from her eyes. Ryou wrapped his arms around her and embraced her in a deep hug. He gently kissed her forehead.

Ryou: Now now, don't cry, let's get some sleep.

Kilala6: ooooh. what's up with Akira? Does she have a millennium item? If so how come, there were only seven. or were there more? Please read and review, no flamers and no character bashing. Okay I guess that's the same thing. Okay bye.
