Shatter dreams

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh...... I wish I did... Well I only own Kairi, Chris and everyone related to them.

Chapter 1 - The Candy Eye

A shy girl with medium length copper hair walked up the steps side by side with her only good friend. She was any girl's height and had medium ocean eyes. She wasn't as pretty as the most popular girls at school and she wasn't as smart as the genius at Domino High. She was somewhere in the middle blended with the rest.

As she left her friend to his locker she stood there quietly in her own train of thought when a certain blue - eyed CEO walked passed them and into his assigned class. She had a major crush on him for years and never had the courage to look him in the eye, let alone speak to him or ask him to the dances she always wanted to go. Lost in her own thoughts she did not hear her friend call her.

"Hello....Earth to Kairi"

Kairi setting her thoughts back to reality she quickly regained her control. "Oh......Sorry"

"How long have you had that crush on Kaiba?" Chris asked. Chris was Kairi's best and only friend. She confined in him every emotion she felt, every pain that pierced her, every dream she dreamt, every wish she made. He returned the same trust and connection as they were long childhood friends.

"I tried not to" Kairi quietly whispered.

"Why don't you ask him to the up coming dance?" Chris suggested.

"I don't know" Kairi began towards her class.

"We'll go ask him during lunch" Chris walked off with a smile.

"No.....Wait" Her voice was only heard in her head. She was not one who liked to argue.

Kairi quietly entered the tousled classroom and awaited the teacher.

"Hey where have you been?" Chris ran up to Kairi.

"I had to stay behind" Kairi admitted. "The teacher says my studies aren't rising by much"

"But at least their rising" Chris comforted her.

Kairi let out a sigh.

"Come on....... There's Kaiba" Chris pointed.

"No.......I can't" Kairi protested.

"I can't stand you daydreaming about him all the time" Chris let out a small laughter.

"No.....He doesn't even know I exist"

"Let's go" Chris dragged her to where Kaiba held his position.

"Hi Kaiba.......May I have a few words?" Chris asked.

Kaiba looked up silently. Chris took it as for him to proceed.

"My friend would like to address a question to you" Chris pushed Kairi in front of him.

Kairi tremble with fear as her eyes stayed grounded.

Kaiba annoyed with the lack of commutation and also as they waste his time, he spoke. "Speak for I do not have time or the patients for you inability of speech"

"I......I......I was wondering......If.......If.......you wanted........to.......attend.......the........the.......upcoming.....dance. .....with me" Her soft voice was barely heard by Kaiba.

Kaiba smirked. "I do not attend such childish affairs"

Kairi stood her ground as she let the rejection sink in. She felt Kaiba walked her, but she dared not look up to see his destination.

"Hey....... I don't know what you see in him" Chris patted her on the shoulder.

A group of teenager who was watching the whole scene felt sorry for the poor girl and waltzed over.

"Hey Kaiba a jerk, don't let him bother you" A boy with blonde hair put in as his greeting.

"Joey's right Kaiba's not the friendliest person alive" A smaller tri colored haired boy smiled.

"Hey....... What did that idiot say to you to make you cry?" A taller boy with brown hair tried to see her face as he was only facing the ground.

"Are you okay?" A pretty girl with brown hair moved closer.

"She's fine........ I'm Chris" He raised his arm.

"Nice to meet you" The smaller boy accepted his friendship. "I'm Yugi"

"What did Kaiba say to you" The girl bended down and looked up at the girl still accepting her rejection.

"Nothing extreme....... It's just that she had a crush on him for a few years now..... and today was the day I finally convinced her to ask him to the up coming dance" Chris explained.

"I bet I know what he said" Joey made a fist.

"Hey...... I'm sure a lot of other boy would want to go to the dance with you" The girl tried to cheer Kairi up.

Finally settling her feelings and her thoughts back down to earth she raised her head and smiled. "Thank You........ I'm Kairi"

"Now that's the smile I like to see" Chris smiled.

"Hey I'll go to the dance with you" The brown haired teen offered. "By the way I'm Tristan"

"Thank you for the offer...... but I'm fine" Kairi said.

"Still stuck on Kaiba?" Chris didn't give his hopes up.

"How long did you say she had a crush on Kaiba?" Yugi asked.

"A few years" Chris responded.

"I don't know what you see in him" The girl shrugged. "I'm Tea by the way"

"I don't know either" Chris shrugged.

"But it would be nice for Kaiba to loosen up" Tristan commented.

"Yeah, maybe that's the reason he's so cold is that he doesn't have anyone beside Mokuba to be at his side" Yugi thought.

"Well maybe if he would let people befriend him then maybe someone would be at his side" Tea made a good point.

Kairi looked at her watch and saw that she was late. "Thank you for you encouraging words.....I must go" Kairi ran off.

"Poor girl" Chris sighed.

"What's the matter?" Joey asked.

"She's been dreaming of being with Kaiba for so many years....... It's sad to see her dream be trashed and destroyed in an instance" Chris shook his head.

"Well not to offend anyone, but even did Kaiba wanted someone to love. I don't think Kairi would be his type" Tristan brought up another good point.

"That's it!" Chris's eyes lit up with an almost unnatural glow.
