Kami: Hey guys. I kinda got writers block with the other stories so I went and wrote this on…lol don't kill me!
Alana: Hey Yugi, Joey, Kaiba, Yami come over here Kami's about to start the story.
Kami: Alana where did Rondale go.
Alana: His brother is Ronald I believe is filling in for him this time.
Kami: I forgot I even made him a brother. But you do know they're twins right?
Alana: Great now I have to deal with them both trying to rape you.
Ronald: I would never harm Kami like that. She is a woman to be treated as such.
Yami: If I can be of any help I will gladly get rid of your problems for a friend.
Yugi: Oh no you don't you promised no more mind crush or no sex for you mister.
Yami: Sorry Alana but…. the sex!
Alana: That was way below the belt Yugi. You take away sex.
Joey and Kaiba: … Anyway Kami does not own us or any of our franchise.
Yugi: On with the story!
Chapter 1
The sun woke me up from me sleep and invaded my room but a certain brunette invaded my dreams last night. It been years since I've seen the bastard but every time I turn around I have him on my mind. Back in high school I had the biggest crush on him but I would always fight with him instead of talking with him. I think I was afraid of rejection but I don't know if might even see him again.
I got up from my bed and stretched my body to get it awake. My feet touch the floor, which sent a shiver up my spine. It was time for me to wake up any way for work but by it being cold I just wanted to fall asleep. This type of cold weather always made me sleepy.
There were sounds of two sets of footsteps outside my door. I figured it was my two roommates that I live with; they are always up and already for their day. It was the same each morning. First there was the sound of footsteps followed by the sound of pans banging together then…
CRASH!
"Look what you did now! You are the most absentminded person in the world." Said the voice of one of the roommates.
"I'm sorry but you ran into the kitchen and I didn't know which way to go." Came the small voice of another roommate.
Times like this I had to wake up and stop the noise or I wouldn't be able to function the rest of the day. I walked to my door and opened it up and made my way to the kitchen. The first person I spotted was a girl about 5'7 with jet-black hair down her back, green eyes and brown skin, her name was Alana. Going farther into the kitchen I spotted a girl 5'5 with short shoulder length dark brown hair, dark brown eyes and brown skin, her name was Kamyria but Kami for short.
While Alana was still screaming her head off about spilled milk, literality spilled milk, Kami was in a corner hiding from Alana's rage. When Kami lifted her head up and spotted me in the doorway of the kitchen her brown eyes developed tears and she ran into my body almost knocking me down. I looked up the glare at Alana who had stopped yelling when she seen Kami cry. The small girl clinging onto me for dear life reminded my of my own baby sister. I looked back down and wrapped my arms around her small frame.
"It's alright Kami. It was just milk. I can always go and get some more on my way from work." I said.
Teary brown eyes looked up at me "It's ok Joey, I'll get the milk this time." With that she smiled wiping her eyes and went to clean up the spilled milk.
Alana gave Kami a hug to apologize only because she refuses to say 'I'm sorry' to anyone. The two love birds made a scene that had a certain person back on my mind. This was gonna be a long day.
After eating the breakfast that Kami cooked I headed out the door with Alana trailing behind me. As we were walking down the street I noticed how quiet Alana was so I glanced her way and noticed that she had her head down. I was about to pass it off when I seen a tear drop down from her face.
"You okay there Alana."
She brought her hand up to wipe away all other tears and turned her head away from me. I had a feeling I knew what this was about so I took a chance at making her open up about it.
"So why'd you go off on Kami like that? Cuz that was the most you've ever screamed in one morning." I laughed at the thought. I looked over to Alana and seen she was still looking the other way. "Look if it's about that guy Kami has been hanging around I'd tell you don't sweat it. She's crazy in love with you."
"You didn't see how she always looks at him. It's like she wants him but she knows she's with me. Sometimes I feel like she might leave me one day for a guy like him."
"Which is why you need to be better." She looked up at me like I was crazy. I noticed her eyes were red and puffy. "Don't look at me like that. I don't know if you realize it but Kami has stuck by you even when you yell at her. It's kinda amazing that she hasn't yelled at you back." Alana must not realize that Kami always tries to smile when Alana is unhappy or has a bad day. "In a way you owe her more in the relationship." I smile her way.
"I guess you're right, for once." She smiled at me and I was happy she finally got it.
We walked into a tall building where we worked at. We worked for a shipping company called LandWay Corp. Alana headed for the elevators because she worked in the accounting offices on the second floor. We said our good-byes and agreed to meet up for lunch later. I headed toward the loading docks and spotted my supervisor.
"Doug how many times do I have to tell you to lift the boxes up right? You can hurt yourself not being careful." He turned my way and smiled. "Besides you and Joey here are my best two workers. These other idiot might learn something from you two."
Doug was a mid-age man with two kids and a girlfriend. He was 5'7 and balding all over but he looked younger then his age. I meet him when I started and we got along pretty good on the first day. I met his son once who is now 13 years old. His son had sandy blond hair and blue eyes. The daughter was a spitting image of the brother because they were twins but her hair was dirty blond.
"Aww come on Jim. You of all people should know nothing can hurt me. I'm made of steel and iron."
"More like hot air." I commented which earned a laugh from Jim and a punch in the arm from Doug.
"Hey Joey, there's a new employee I want you to train. He's a light weight so don't push him to hard or he might break." Jim said. Jim was in his early 60s and had a head full of white hair. He wasn't too bad for his age but sometimes the guy was a nut case. He's worked for the company for 17 years and has never missed a day of work.
"So who's this new person I'm training?"
"He's right over there with the red shirt on."
I couldn't believe who I was seeing sitting on the wall on the other side of the building. Alana was not gonna be happy about this. In fact the might be even more fighting between her and Kami.
The tension at lunch was intense. Alana was glaring daggers at the new guy across the table. Doug was looking between the two like he was trying to figure out if he would be caught in the crossfire. For one thing he had the right to be scared. These two were not on any good terms with one another.
"What the HELL are you doing here?" Alana shouted.
The new guy just looked up from his plate and stared at her then looked at me. "So Joey, Jim tells me you are one of two of his best workers. In my country a man of that status is well respected by all."
"I guess you can say that, but really all I do is do my job."
"For that you are truly a man."
"What are you deaf? I asked you a fucking question." Now Alana was out of her seat and slamming her hands on the table making everything almost fall.
"I am here to work like every other American. Is it wrong?"
"It's wrong when I have to catch you flirting with my girlfriend every time you see her."
"Not my fault you know nothing about making her happy. She is a Nubian queen that must be treated as such. She should not be treated like a slave or lower than dirt!" Now the new guy was standing out of his seat.
Ah oh!
"You take that back you piece of shit." Alana gripped the table until her knuckles were power white.
"Make. Me."
Oh shit. Why did he say that?
The table went flying and food was everywhere. Alana was kicking and punching the new guy and he was dodging every blow. Mid swing Alana stopped and stared into the crowd that had somehow gathered. I looked to where she was looking and almost cried at the scene.
Kami was standing there holding a bag with a gallon of milk and a bento box with Alana's name written on it. She was wearing a pink Hello Kitty shirt with faded blue jean shorts and white flip-flops. She walked slowly out of the crowd and approached Alana. What she did next was not expected.
Slap!
By the look of Alana's cheek Kami had finally shown her anger. She turned to the new guy.
"Why would you provoke her Ronald? You know she gets angry fast and I asked you not to do that. I've told you before about the feelings I have for her and that you were only a friend." Her eye began to water. "Both of you are idiots. I HATE YOU BOTH!" She ran off crying and dropped everything she had in-hand on the floor.
"Alana! Don't just stand there, go after her." I shouted. "Kami wait!"
I started to run after her but I began to lose her during the rush hour crowd. For her have shorter legs then me she could run. All I could see was her pink shirt disappearing into the crowd.
"KAMI!"
She was gone I headed back to the area where everything just happened when I seen short brown hair and ocean blue eyes staring at me from the inside of a limo. Before I had time to shout out to the person the lime drove off and turned down a busy street. I continued my walk back.
I walked back to see Alana on the floor; her hair hid her face. I walked over to her and bent down to push her hair back. It took 3 seconds for her eyes to come in contact with mine. They were dull green and lifeless. It was like life itself was taken from her. Kami meant a lot to Alana and it might not have shown but Kami was Alana's life.
"Joey. Did you find her? Is she coming back?" Her voice was just a whisper.
"This all your fault!" Ronald shouted. "Now she has run away and she may never be found again. What do you have to say for yourself?"
"Hey now, wait a minute pal. Alana may have her faults but she's still just human. Besides Kami's a smart girl, she may know someone around here."
"He's right Joey. I've done nothing but yell and scream at her and call her names but the one thing I never said to her was 'I love you'. She would always smile even though she knew I would never say those three words. I'm not human, I'm a monster."
"Don't say that. You can't help it if you can't express your feelings all the time. I know I regret not showing them to a certain person, but unlike that person Kami can tell what a person is feeling even if the person doesn't say it. Deep down you know she knows you love her with all your heart. Give it time she'll come back."
"Promise?"
I put my head against hers, "Promise." and smiled.
*Three weeks later*
"Hey Alana, get your lazy butt up. We gotta go."
Alana walked into the kitchen still in her pajamas. She stopped in front of the counter over seeing the stove then looked up at me.
"If you think I'm eating that shit you go suck something then rot."
"Ouch. It's not that bad. I was just trying to cook your favorite breakfast before we go."
"Joey, you may know how to cook some things but pancakes with chocolate chip and blueberries is something you cannot cook. We'll just go down to the diner and eat after we meet up with your friends." She walked out the kitchen and back to her room to get dressed.
It's been three weeks since Alana has heard anything from Kami. Kami called me about a week ago on my cell and told me she was staying with a friend. She told me not to tell Alana that she called and to not worry about her. She explained me that she had forgiven Alana but that she needed sometime to rethink about her feelings for Alana. I tried telling her that Alana was falling apart without her but all she said was she was sorry but she wasn't ready then she hung up. I haven't heard from her since.
Alana came back into the kitchen wearing black shorts with white tights, a neon green shirt and knee high combat boots. She almost looked like she was going on a undercover mission to kill someone. "Ready to go?"
"Sure. You do realize we're only meeting my friends not going to war?" We walked to the door and I grabbed the keys on the table near the door.
"Yea I know. I just want to see the look on you friends face when they meet me."
"You have issues you know that right?"
Her response was a shrug of her shoulders and she walked out the door in front of me.
We walked down the street to a pizza joint that was well known in the neighborhood. As we walked up I spotted two identical heads topped with black spikes tipped with red. On had blond bangs framing his face and the other had two blond bangs down and the other two up. When they turned around and spotted us they waved. The shorter of the two ran up to me and gave me a hug. If I didn't know any better I'd think he'd been working out by how string his hug was. "Nice to see you too Yug." I laughed and returned the hug.
"So who's your friend Joey?"
"Oh this is Alana. She's cool although she was dragged along by me to get her out the house."
"That's fine. Hey Yami come here and meet Joey's friend Alana." Yugi turned toward Alana and extended his hand. "By the way I'm Yugi Motou and this is my boyfriend Yami." Yugi pointed to Yami who had finally walked up to join us.
"Same here I guess. Joey talks about you guys about. I find it interesting that you two were once sharing the same body now your banging each other."
Yugi's eyes widened and Yami just stared at Alana like he was trying to solve a puzzle.
"You told her." Yugi shouted. His cheeks were tinted pink from embarrassment.
"Aibou, it's nothing to be ashamed of." Yami turned his attention back to Alana. "In fact you are correct Alana. It is interesting but to my it's arousing." He winked at that last comment.
Alana started to giggle then it turned into a full out laugh, one that had her on her knees trying to get some air. When she caught her breath she stood up and patted Yami's back and began to walk with him toward the pizzeria. The two made it seem like they had been friends for years.
"So that's the one you were talking about over the phone?" Yugi was standing beside me watching the two interact.
"Yea, she may not show it but it's killing her knowing she was the cause Kami ran away."
"Specking of love, Kaiba's back in America. That's why we're here. He asked if we could come and look over the new attraction in the new KaibaLand he's built." I turned to Yugi. "He asked me if I could ask you to come as well."
"What does Moneybags want with me."
"Oh come on Joey it was obvious that you had a big crush on Kaiba. Although Kaiba doesn't let his emotions show he did make sure he always got your attention in high school." Yugi finally looked me in the eye. "You should come and ask him out."
"Are you nuts! Kaiba is filthy rich. What chance do I have at asking him out and him saying yes."
"You can start by asking him now."
"What are you talking about Yug?"
Yug pointed behind me. I turned to see a white limo pulled up next to us. The window rolled down and I was meet with the most amazing blue eyes. I felt like I couldn't breathe. That same smug smile was gracing the face of Seto freaking Kaiba, my crush/infatuation.
