-blink blink- I'm actually posting a story on here. After a whole year! It's been so long... I feel like I let a lot of peoples down. XD I'm sure they're ok.
First YuGiOh fanfic, ever from me. XD
To be quite honest, I got the idea from my first day of high school today.... O-p
Disclamer:: I do not, nor will I ever, own YuGiOh or it's characters. They belong to their owner(s). I only own my horrible ideas and imaginary characters I create when I'm bored out of my mind.
Summary:: Yuugi Mutou is a freshman in high school. He is finally attending his first day and is bored the minute he walks in the class. But, after meeting a person named Yami, he might want to change his opinion. Puzzleshipping, AU
Warnings:: Puzzleshipping, cussing, and... really bad writing.
o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
(Note, this whole fanfic will be in Yuugi's POV.)
High school, huh? I'm really in high school now, aren't I? I guess I'm excited. Even though none of my friends are going to the high school I'm going to doesn't mean I have to sulk about it. It would be nice to know some people there besides my sister. And her boyfriend. But back to the topic, I'm just going to be the kid no one knows for a while. I'm okay with that. Perfectly okay with it.
The sun was slowly making it's way over the horizon as I checked the time on the dashboard in the car; it read 6:28. I've been sitting in my sister's black Hundai Elantra since ten minutes before, waiting for her to finish whatever she was doing in the house and drive us both to school. Why must girls take so long just to go to a building for six measily hours? I don't think that problem has been solved yet.
While waiting, I scanned the inside of my backpack and made sure I wasn't missing anything, which I wasn't. I tried to switch my cell phone to silent, but couldn't figure out how, so I shut it off and stored it in my pocket. I looked out the window and dozed off for a bit. I was shook out of it when I heard the car door next to me slam. I flicked my head towards the sound.
My sister put the keys in the ignition and turned the car on. "So, ready to go?" she asked me?
I replied to her, "Yeah, why not."
"You should be happier! You're finally starting high school!" She turned to me as she spoke, her blonde hair crimped with her bangs pulled back.
"It's only ninth grade, Arieru, you know," I said, resuming looking out the window.
Arieru shook her head. "If you say so, Yuugi."
She pulled out of her parking spot on the curb in front of the house and started driving down the road towards the school. I stared at the houses, cars, and pedestrians passing by out the window. I quietly sighed and we stopped at the stoplight.
"So the gym class just meets in the gym the first few days?" I asked, not once moving my head.
Arieru replied, "Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I'll show you how to get there from inside the school."
I didn't reply. Instead, I continued gazing at the outside, wondering what my life would be like now that I'm in high school. I could easily be the quiet smart kid in the back of the class, passing every class with a breeze and no one knowing who I am. Or I could just not care and make friends with every single person in the school and fail at everything. But that wouldn't help me, so the first option sounds great.
Before I knew it, the car was parked in a parking spot and the doors unlocked. I looked up and realized that we had arrived at the school. I grabbed my backpack and threw it over my left shoulder. Sighing, I opened the car door and stepped out. I leaned against the car, looking at the other students passing by, chatting as the went. I felt a small ping of jealousy, but I wasn't going to do anything about it. It just seemed... troublesome? Yeah, that'll work.
"Are you going to stand there? Come on, Yuugi!" Arieru called to me. I turned around to look at her. I nodded and followed her through the parking lot to one of the many entrances to the large school building. We passed many unfamiliar faces and teachers. Some students listening to iPods or texting before shutting them off and entering the school. The school cop wizzed by on a bike, students quickly shuffling out of the way of his path. I looked around at the scenes and took everything in.
Arieru suddenly said, "So what are your classes?" I gave her the schedual I had recieved in the mail a few weeks before. After studying it for a few seconds, she said, "Okay, your first and third class are here. Eight hundreds, right?" I glanced at the list of classes and room numbers before nodding. "Yup, they'd be here." It was an outside hallway with classes on either side. Teachers were standing outside of their designated classrooms, conversing amounst themsevles. A few students entered the classrooms, and a few more just hung outside while waiting for the teacher to show up.
We continued walking through a small crowd up a long, but with a small slope, ramp leading to more doors. When we walked through, there were more students. Some were trying to land a skateboard move, some girls were squealing and hugging each other and blabbing about how their summer was and how much they missed each other. Others were just hanging out.
"So through those doors," she pointed to the left, "is the gym. You just have to walk straight a little bit." Arieru looked at me. "You got all of this, right?" I nodded. She smiled. "Good!" She led me to more large doors and we walked inside. It appeared to be the cafeteria. "So this is the cafeteria." I'm psychic, aren't I? Sarcasm, I promise.
I nodded again, looking around a bit. She continued walking towards a crowded hallway, occasionally saying "hi" and hugging people I didn't know. She pointed to a few hallways and said that my classes in the three hundreds would be there. The bell rang suddenly to signal everyone that they had five minutes to get to class. She turned to me.
"Ok, let me show you where your homeroom class is," she said. Everyone had a homeroom class based on their last name just for the first day. We had to be there for an hour in the morning, then we had to go back at the end of the day for twenty more minutes.
"Hey, wait, where's room 131?" I asked.
She pointed down the hallway we were walking down. "You just walk down there, now let's go." I followed her and eventually ended up in front of a door.
"Okay, here's your homeroom," she said.
I nodded. "Thanks."
"No problem," she said over her shoulder as she left me behind. Students were still crowded around the door, so I assumed that the teacher had yet to unlock the door. Or arrive. Either works well in this situation.
I found a spot against the wall to lean on while I waited. I slid down to the floor and just sat there. I found a spot on the floor in front of my shoes and just stared at it. I didn't look up for a while. Although, for some reason, it felt like someone was staring at me. Yet, I didn't look around to check.
Then, a small lady with short blonde hair and a black and white dress appeared and unlocked the door, letting everyone inside the classroom. If I'm right, that was the teacher. I stood up and walked inside the class and found a seat second to last in the back, and second closest row to the teacher's desk. There was only one seat open next to me. I sat down and stared at the desk. I wasn't interested in the other students around me. Maybe another day. Just not today.
The bell finally rung, and the lady walked to the front of the room.
"Okay, people, I'm going to hand out your schedual cards now. You need to have these stamped by every teacher and have them returned to your last class. When I call your name, please come get your schedual," she said to the class as they quieted down. One by one she called names, and they took their scheduals to look over them, share with their friends, and whatnot.
After several names, she finally called, "Yuugi Mutou?" I stook up and walked at my own pace to the front of the room and grabbed my card. I quietly walked to my seat, looking at the floor. Just as I got in the mail, I had three honors classes; Language Arts I H, Geometry H, and Biology I H. Lovely.
Every name was soon called, and everyone was free to talk as they pleased. I stared at my card and studied it carefully to make sure there wasn't an error. After a while, I knew there wasn't, but I kept staring at it. A few minutes had passed, and I had started to feel lightheaded. It couldn't had been from a lack of breakfast, since I actually eat in the morning. I'm positive I'm not sick. Could it have been from nervousness? I was nervous? I didn't feel like that ten minutes ago. Why is it I'm getting nervous at a time like this? It just seemed impossible-
"Hey," a voice said from next to me on my right.
My thoughts were broken from this person, and I turned my head to see who had talked to me.
"H-huh?" Wow, good job on that first impression.
The person, well, guy, looked somewhat similar to me. Well, the hair at least. He looked way taller than me, and he has crimson-like color eyes instead of violet. I watched as he looked over my schedual. He didn't look like he was going to bully me or something.
"Yuugi, right? I'm Yami. Nice to meet you," he said, looking up at me. I blinked. I didn't expect this.
"U-uh, yeah, same to you..." I mumbled. He looked at my schedual once more.
"So, we both have first lunch, don't we? I'll look forward to that!" He smiled at me. I felt embarrassed that I didn't know what to say. Once again, he went back to checking my schedual. "So, you're a freshman? Man, it was fun being in the ninth grade. I'm in the tenth grade, so you know."
"Oh." That was all I managed to say.
"You don't talk much do you?" he laughed. I shrugged. "Hmm, I'll get you to talk, don't worry!" What's to worry about?
He continued to talk to me. "Okay, how about this; at lunch, I can introduce you to my friends!" I looked up at him.
"Aren't they all in the tenth grade, too? Won't I be the odd one out?" I said. He smiled.
"No, actually, there are other freshmans too! I promise you'll like them."
I sighed. "Umm, okay."
His face lit up. "Great! I'll try to find you!" With that, he went back to talk to one of his friends that had gotten the same homeroom as him.
I stared at my desk for the remainder of the homeroom.
I guess the rest of my day won't be as day I thought...
o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
(Note: This is an AU fic! Alternate universe! Which means I can do whatever the hell I want! Because we all know Yuugi-kun doens't have a sister. It's actually MY sister, and I had no ideas, because I needed someone like her for the story, so here's my sister. XD But in this story, she isn't his sister, she's more of a really REALLY good friend that lives next door... Yuugi still lives with Grandpa, don't worry! X3 Oh, and Yami's eyes ARE red in the anime, if you watch the very VERY first season on YuGiOh, so NO COMPLAINING! XD)
Kurisuten: Yay! Chapter number one is done! I feel so proud of myself!
