My first FanFiction story! Finally! I hope you like it!

I felt that there were too many yaoi pairings in the Yugioh section and I wanted to write a male x female love story. I hope you like it!

--Your POV--

You had just moved into your penthouse apartment 2 weeks ago. It wasn't what you were used to, but you quite liked the cozy feel. Your art materials were scattered all over your desk and a beautiful dragon drawing was hanging above it. You loved to draw and you had a portfolio of some of your proudest work that you were going to hang around your house.

Many things still lay in suitcases, waiting to be unpacked, but you hadn't the heart to take things out. You sighed as your stared at the school uniform you would be wearing to Domino High. It was a blue pleated skirt with a light pink blouse; you absolutely despised the color pink.

You felt nervous, being that you were going to join a high school senior class midway throughout their school year. Who would be your friend? Everybody there had had four years to get to know each other and you were just the new kid…an outsider. Oh well, you were used to being a loner: no friendships meant that no one could hurt you anymore.

You decided to head to the neighborhood arcade and play a few games to take your mind off of things. When you walked in, you noticed a small boy in the back left, playing a racing game on his own. He looked lonely, so you decided to go over to him.

"Hi, do you mind if I join you?" The boys' purplish gray eyes lit up brightly and he said "Of course not! I've been looking for someone to play with for a while now."

"I'm Nuitari. What's your name?" you asked.

"I'm Mokuba". You did your best to smile warmly at him "Nice to meet you" you said as happily as you could. He somehow reminded you of someone you once knew…

A few minutes later…"Score! I win!!" you exclaimed. "Aw…rematch rematch!" You hadn't had this much fun in a while.

"Hey Mokuba, how old are you?" you asked as you put in another coin to play.

"I'm 12 and I live with my big brother. He's the best!" You couldn't help but smile at that. It seemed like this little boy really cared for his brother. You decided against asking him about his parents; you knew that could be a touchy subject. "So what do you like to do, Mokuba?" you asked instead.

You asked him general questions about books, movies, games, the usual small talk. As you walked out of the arcade with him, he said: "that was the most fun I've had in ages!"

You laughed, ruffling his hair. "Me too, Mokuba."

"Can we play again sometime?" he pleaded.

"Sure! I'm a pretty big gamer myself so I'll be seeing you around the arcade often, ok?"

"OK!! Promise??" his eyes were so big and he was so sweet. How could you say no?

"Of course, Mokuba". The two of you parted ways there. You walked back to your house, a few blocks away, thinking that maybe finding friends wouldn't be so difficult after all. Sure, he was only 12, but a friend is a friend!

You saw Mokuba a few more times before school started and you got to him quite well. You even brought him over to your house to show him your artwork after he begged you to take him there.

--Mokuba's POV--

You ran home after you said goodbye to Nuitari. You hadn't told your brother who your new friend was, but you felt that you should tell him because you knew you would be seeing her more often. As you opened the doors to the mansion you lived in, you heard your brother yelling at someone on the phone. You sighed as you shut the door behind you.

Ever since Seto had become president of Kaiba Corp., he always seemed to be in a bad mood. He was always yelling at people and he constantly worked late. You barely got to see him anymore, which made you miss the old days…when he used to actually smile at you on in a while. But you loved him nonetheless and you always did your best to cheer him up.

"Rough day?" you said as he angrily hung up.

"Yeah," he said, rubbing his temples from the headache that was coming on. Your face lit up in a smile as you remembered what you were going to tell him.

"You'll never guess what happened at the arcade the other day!!"

"Enlighten me," came the sarcastic response. You were used to this attitude so you kept going,

"I met this girl, her name is Nuitari, and she is so wickedly awesome! I've been playing games with her for the past two weeks and she bought me ice cream and she took me to her house and she's an amazing artist and…"

--Seto's POV--

"WELL FIND ME SOMETHING!" you yelled angrily into the phone as you heard Mokuba come in through the front door. You slammed down the phone, closed your eyes and sighed.

You were trying to find out information about Masaki Corporation's virtual reality systems. They seemed to be remarkably similar to the ones you designed years ago and you had a hunch they were stealing your technology and calling it their own. However, those imbeciles you called employees couldn't seem to find any reason to suspect the opposing company.

If this kept up, you would just have to take over that portion of the corporation.

"Rough day?" you hear your brother ask you. You mumbled a "yeah" just before Mokuba asked you to guess something.

"Enlighten me," you said sarcastically. Mokuba began to launch into one of his stories and you sighed again. You loved your little brother more then anything else, but he really could be annoying after a long day of work. You cut him off halfway through,

"Mokuba, I'm tired. I've got to go to school tomorrow so we'll, talk later, ok?"

"Oh, ok" he said sadly. You never got to look at the expression on his face before you walked up the grand staircase up to your bedroom. Work at your company was getting harder and harder and you had to focus on school?

You had promised yourself four years ago that you would at least finish a high school education otherwise you wouldn't be respected in the business world.

"Only half a year more," you told yourself as you showered and went to bed.

The next morning you got up at 5:30 to get some work done before Roland took you to school at 7:45. When you arrived, you grabbed your briefcase and walked briskly to the math classroom. You kept a cold and blank look in your eyes as you walked, sensing that everyone was turning to look at you as you passed.

You smiled inwardly. That's right, I'm better all of you you thought as you continued walking. You sat down at your usual desk and pulled out the morning newspaper to read. For the next 10 minutes, the rest of your class came into the classroom and began talking amongst themselves.

"Useless garbage about the weekend" you scoffed. The bell rang and you heard the teacher say

"Class, you will have a new student joining you for the rest of this year. She's going to introduce herself".

Suddenly, the whole room went quiet. What could possibly be so important about a new student that would make everybody quiet? You turned to look at Joey Wheeler, sitting a few rows down from you. He had the loudest mouth you had ever heard and even he was sitting quietly.

"Finally" you thought, "someone taught the dog to shut up". But you noticed from his face that he, along with all the other boys in the class, were gaping at something at the front of the class.

You turned your head to the front of the room to see what everyone was staring at and your eyes widened slightly. You weren't easily taken by surprise but you understood why the room was so quiet.

A very attractive girl stood at the front of the room. She was taller than average and her uniform fit her slight frame quite nicely. She had long black hair which covered a small portion of the left side of her face, making her look a little mysterious. Her face was long and skinny and curved into a slightly pointy chin. Her lips were small and pink and she had a small nose that every girl would envy.

But the most stunning feature about her was her eyes. They were a beautiful deep aqua color and sparkled in the light of the room. You noticed a small hint of sadness in them, though. Before you could look at them longer, she spoke.

"Hi. My name is Nuitari," she said. Her voice was soft and soothing, yet you felt a strength in her quiet words.

--Your POV--

You said hi to the class and you heard all the guys except one say

"H-Hi, N-Nuitari". All the girls were glaring you like you had just stolen their prom date. You laughed silently to yourself because you had never gotten this kind of reaction before. You did a quick scan of the room and noticed that the guy that didn't say hi to you was the best looking one in the class.

"Since there is only once desk available, you may sit next to Mr. Seto Kaiba" the teacher said to you as she pointed to the seat next to the very same man.

You observed him more carefully as you walked toward the desk. He really was very handsome. You could tell he was tall by the length of his legs and torso. By the loose way his clothes fit on him, you knew he was quite fit. His eyes were a piercing sapphire blue and made you catch your breath.

"Great," you thought. "First day of school and I'm already developing a crush." He looked really angry though. His eyes looked empty yet they held this amazingly cold stare. The phrase "if looks could kill" popped into your mind. Why was he so upset?

As you sat down the teacher said

"Alright, class, pop quiz!" Everybody but you and the boy named Seto groaned out loud.

"Don't worry, it's just some easy math," the teacher said jokingly. Everybody groaned again as they saw the supposedly 'easy' quiz placed on their desk. When you looked at it, you sighed. This was nothing compared to what you were learning in America. You quickly wrote down all the answers and said 'done' quietly.

You heard another 'done' the exact same time you said it and were surprised that it was the voice of Seto next to you. His voice was deep and attractive…

"Stop it," you sternly told yourself. As you turned in your quiz to the teacher walking by, you heard the girl behind you hiss loudly into your ear:

"Back off, newbie! He's mine!" You kept your head facing forward but moved your eyes to the side to look at her. You couldn't see much of her but you could smell a buttload of perfume coming off of her.

--Seto's POV--

"Back off, newbie! He's mine!" you heard. You rolled your eyes. Chantelle had been trying to get your attention for the past four years and you were getting really fed up with her. You had made it very clear to her several times that you had absolutely no interest but she just wouldn't give up!

You smirked to yourself as you thought, actually, a lot of girls in this school are after me. And why wouldn't they? I know I look good. Too bad all these girls were just dumb twits anyway. You were the head of one of the most prestigious corporations around the world. You didn't want some bimbo for a girlfriend.

Actually, you weren't interested in a girlfriend at this time, anyway. Too many distractions with all the dates and talks and all that nonsense. You had company to run and nothing would stand in the way of your job.

--Your POV--

The bell for the end of class rang and Seto stood up quickly and left the room. You were right, he was quite tall and he looked really good, too. As you stood up and grabbed your schedule to see where you were headed next, a bunch of guys crowded up to you, begging to take you to your next class.

"I have physics next," you said quietly.

"Perfect, me too. Come on, I'll take you there," you heard. All the other guys looked disappointed as they parted ways to let a tall man with raven black hair approach you.

"I'm Duke Devlin. Nice to meet you". He had a red headband on to keep his long hair out of his face and an earring in the shape of a dice hanging from his left ear. He wore a sleeveless top and vest, showing off his well-toned arms. His eyes were big and green. He seemed nice enough and he was quite attractive…

Though not as much as Seto. He walked with you to the physics classroom, asking you questions along the way. You smiled and laughed at some of his questions, but you answered all of them honestly. You had found friend #2 in this city.

After physics Duke pointed you to the French classroom. When you got there, the teacher asked you to introduce yourself. It was only 3rd period and you were already sick of telling everybody what your name was.

As you did you introduction, you noticed Seto in the back corner of the class, and it just so happened that the only empty seat was next to him. He still looked really angry and impatient. He didn't say anything except for when the teacher called on him; he spoke French like it was his first language.

He spoke smoothly and fluently, his deep and sensual voice making it all the better. When the teacher asked you a question, you responded just as fluently as he had. You had practiced French a lot in the past so you were quite comfortable with the language.

"Oh good," the teacher said after your response.

"Finally, someone that will be able to keep up with Mr. Seto Kaiba when it comes to group work". You gave the teacher a small smile but noticed that Seto kept his face blank. What was his problem?

When lunchtime came around, Duke beckoned for you to sit at a table with all of his friends.

"This is Yugi, Joey, Tea, Tristan, and Bakura" he said as each of his friends waved to you. They were all very friendly and welcoming towards you. You decided to ask them about Seto Kaiba and why he looked so angry.

"He own his own company and he's just really busy and stressed out," Yugi told you.

"No, he's a grade-A jerk who doesn't give a you-know-what about anyone else!" Joey said fiercely. You were shocked. Joey seemed like such a nice and outgoing person, you weren't expecting that from him.

"Yeah," Tea added.

"He's really mean to all of us and won't pass up an opportunity to insult us".

You were even more surprised by that. Tea was such a calm and quiet girl. Seto must have been pretty awful to them for her to say that.

"Well he's just sore because mah man Yugi here is the only person to have ever beaten him at the game of Duel Monsters. Do you play?" Joey asked you as he slapped Yugi on the back. You smiled,

"Yes, I do."

"ALRIGHT!" Joey shouted. "Let's duel!" You gave him a blank face as Tea pulled his ear,

"Calm down Mr. Showoff. Lunch is almost over and this is no time to duel."

"Some other time, maybe" you promised.

"Well, I suppose. Just expect to get a good butt-whooping!"

You giggled, "We'll see."

"So are you here by yourself, Nuitari?" Yugi asked you, trying to change the subject. You hesitated a little before answering.

"My parents and my younger sister are in America. I really miss them sometimes," you replied.

"Tell us about them," Joey insisted; so you did. You told them all about their personalities and how much you cared for them.

"It's sounds like you're really close to them," Tea said.

"Yeah…in a way" you responded quietly. Before they could ask you anything else, the bell rang for the next class to start. Duke walked you to class and you told him how nice everybody was.

"Yeah, they're awesome, aren't they?" You couldn't help but agree.

The rest of the day was really boring and so was the rest of the week. On Friday, though, something rather interesting happened…

Ok, first chapter done! I know it seems kinda slow right now, but please keep reading! Things start to pick up in the next chapter or two. Drop a review, too!
