Hello! It's me, BeautifulWeddingFlower! Okay, so if you've read my other story, Heat, then you'll have no trouble understanding this story. If not, I suggest you go read it, since the whole story is centered around that story. I have a few ideas of how this should go and I'm pretty sure this will be about 4-5 chapters long unless I get another idea for a plot twist to make it longer and/or an idea for a sequel. Enjoy!
If summers were freakishly hot at Duel Academy, early autumn was the perfect mix of coolness and beauty. The trees were painted a stunning red-gold color and it seemed as though more and more students were falling under the love spell that always seemed to affect teenagers every spring and fall. Jaden Yuki was one of these students and he knew it. He had fallen hard for the busty blonde Obelisk Queen, Alexis Rhodes. It was kinda awkward for the two of them though, since Jaden and Alexis really hadn't spoken since that day in the summer where they had fucked like animals in heat. Since that day, Alexis had been distant, but she still flushed crimson whenever he appeared.
Jaden sighed from his place on the ground and rubbed the back of his head. Syrus was standing beside him, watching his troubled friend intently.
"It started with a game," he began slowly. "Remember? We all got together during the summer and decided to play hide and seek. You and Zane were the people trying to find us."
"I remember Jay," Syrus answered patiently, eager to know why his friend had been so distraught lately. Jaden looked over at the small stream and sighed again.
"Alexis and I hiked here. I was so sure that we were never going to be found. We sat here and had a little duel while we waited, but once that got old she told me that it was really hot. We were both pretty much dressed in our uniforms, so I suggested that we strip until we felt comfortable. I stripped to my boxers and she stripped to her tank top and shorts…" Jaden trailed off, apparently lost in his memories. Syrus coughed slightly and Jaden shook his head. "She just…she just looked at me and I…I don't know what came over me I just...I just kissed her. And she kissed back. The next thing I knew we were making out and I was pulling her clothes off…" he looked down and smiled at his friend humorlessly. "I won't give you all the details but right here in this clearing, Alexis and I made love a total of three times." He seemed very proud of that fact, but his smile soon faded. "She hasn't spoken to me since. Do you think she regrets it Sy? Do you think she hates me now?"
Syrus stared up at his friend thoughtfully. "I don't know Jay. Maybe she thinks you're ashamed of it? Have you tried to talk to her?"
Jaden nodded. "Yeah. She keeps saying that she's not mad or upset about what we did, but she doesn't want to talk about it. What does that mean? I mean, I think…I think I'm in love with her and I…I don't wanna lose her again. I really don't wanna lose her."
"Hmm…I could talk to her if you want Jay, but I don't know if that'll-"
"Really? You will? Aw, thanks Syrus! I knew I could count on you!" Jaden looked so happy for once; his face split into the biggest grin Syrus had seen on his face in a long time. He didn't have the heart to tell him that it would probably not work. But he had to try. He had to at least get some kind of closure for his friend. Jaden had been holding this secret in for at least two months and Syrus knew that for Jaden, two months was a long time to hold a secret, especially something of this magnitude. His friend was figuratively deteriorating from this burden, although he seemed to walk with a lighter step now that the secret was out to someone he could talk about it to, even if it was only one person.
Syrus held his head up high and nodded at Jaden's back. He would try his hardest to get Alexis to listen to him tomorrow, no matter the cost.
Okay, so I'll try to post once a week...but don't hold me to that. Questions/Comments/Concerns are asked to be deposited into the reviews. Thank you! XOXO Elizabeth
