Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh.

Author Note: There is Yaoi. The couples:

Yami/Yuugi Jou/Seto Ryou/Malik

(Non-Yaoi couples: Anzu/Honda)

Erm. I am stuck with Micro. Word.

Great.

'.' Are Yuugi's thoughts.

Summary: Well. Yuugi wishes to be popular. What will happen if his wish becomes true?

Yuugi had wished for one thing, to be a little popular, and have many friends. The football jocks and the preps at school were so popular. Yuugi hated it. Yuugi longed for the popularity that the preps and jocks brought.

Yuugi was one of those, innocent boys that do nothing wrong in school. He had some old friends but it seems like a century since they talked. When he spoke though, no one would listen, sometimes look down at him, but never listen. High School was horrible. Loneliness was always known in his life. Since his Grandfather had died, he got no phone calls, no invitations to the arcade, and worse of all, no one listened. His voice would be drowned out by Ryou's laughter, Anzu's giggles, or Honda's rambling. No one talked about Battle City, Duel Monsters, or even about all their travels they had together.

Anzu and Honda were together so much, that they had become a couple and left Yuugi out in the dust. Otogi had his own life. That's all he would say and then walk away. Seto was always too busy for school, and Mokuba wasn't in High School. That ruled out the Kaiba brothers. Jou was really the only one that would still hang with Yuugi. Unless his father was so drunk he couldn't come out. That happened a lot. So Yuugi just had himself.

The millennium puzzle, though. Yuugi had it still around his neck. Yami would never talk though. His old friends had accepted his yami, just not him. He would always tell his mind that. Yuugi knew that it was all just lies. Yuugi wore the puzzle as a reminder of his old life with friends. It was December, a cold, dark month in Yuugi's mind. This was the month his Grandpa had died. He missed him, and the loss of his friends never helped with the pain. He ran the Game Shop still, even though it got barely visitors. No one was really into Duel Monsters anymore, except for Yuugi.

Being a freshman in Domino High School, Yuugi was teased by juniors, and by regular bullies. His life was the worst. That's why he wanted to become popular. He had bruises next to bruises. His face was almost always cut. No one knew the pain of High School that Yuugi felt.

Yuugi yawned quickly. It was another day in Domino. Today he would probably get picked on, or beat up. The cafeteria buzzed with laughter and gossip. Yuugi never paid attention to the gossip, and he never would. He stood last in line, and watched his old friends talk to each other. Ryou would look up from Honda's rambling and watch Yuugi, his chocolate eyes meeting the amethyst. Yuugi would do this every day, and in his mind curse at them all for leaving him with not even a goodbye. It made him feel somewhat better, for that moment of eye locking. The closest Yuugi could probably get towards his friends was a building away. Then they would go to the pizzeria together.

'Together.'

Yuugi was mentally thinking to himself before a kid behind him pushed him with his tray. Yuugi jolted forward. He grumbled and took a milk and salad and walked from the counter and stood to find a seat. All the tables were taken. Jocks, preps, cheerleaders, and the party crowd all had their own tables in the cafeteria. They would move over for one of their own, but not for him. Yuugi quickly looked towards Honda's table. Everyone was listening to Honda rambles, still.

'Hasn't that gotten a little old?'

Feeling his appetite gone, Yuugi set the full tray on the counter. He would sit in the courtyard, and do nothing. Maybe watch his old friends again. Yuugi would just sit on the ground.

Waiting . . .

Longing to be special, popular, and above all . . .

Accepted.
