Disclaimer- I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, nor any of the characters, and I can tell you things would be different if I did! Cough Seto and Joey! Cough
Okay, here's my first go at writing a Yu-Gi-Oh fanfiction, so I hope you all like it, I got inspiration for the title from a song out the now by Cabin Crew (in Britain,) called 'Star to Fall' aside from the obvious lyrics the song also includes the words 'Trying to Catch your Heart,' I am currently crazy about the song and chose it as my ficcy title.
Basically it is a complicated story of sheer romance. We see how love blossoms among all our favourite couples. Family squabbles, pasts, which come back, and friend's who intervene effect all the relationships. Near the end, I will put an extra twist in the story to make it a lot more interesting!
Joey x Seto, Marik x OC are our two main couples, and the story is based around their love and how it evolves through daily life. Tea x Yugi are a background couple also!
Warning: Shounen-ai and/or Yaoi are featured in this story! If you don't like it, don't read it! Got it? And please don't send me any bloody reviews saying Yaoi's yucky or whatever, I respect that a lot of people don't like it, but if you don't like it then please don't read this and moan about it! Thank you.
Okay, finally, the OC is Rhona, yes that's right, I have written another bloody story which includes me matched up with one of the characters! Gomen, I really can't help myself! But yes, I am Rhona, I should probably tell you that she's best friends with Seto, (nothing else,) and she's real good friends with Mokuba too, she fancies Marik, but you'll have to read the story to find more out about that!
Please read and review- Tell me whether I should continue this or not!
Trying to Catch your Heart
Seto shuddered, as the sound of giggling lovesick girls followed him along the corridor, "Why can't they just leave me alone?" he growled lowly under his breath, as his eyes darted from side to side in search of the owners of the high-pitched voices.
"Hey Seto!" a feminine voice cut in, making him spin around with lightening reflexes.
He sighed heavily in relief, when he realised that it wasn't one of the seemingly zombified stalkers but actually a good friend of his.
"Rhona," he greeted in a formal tone, even with his friends Seto continued his businessman act, it seemed Mokuba was the only person whom had seen the real Kaiba.
Rhona smiled, before pausing as she blinked in confusion, noticing the male brunet slightly tensed and defensive, she casually glanced to the side, quickly realising why Kaiba seemed to be currently quite edgy, she rolled her eyes as Kaiba's latest collection of fan girls screamed girlishly.
Seto winced as the screams suddenly rose in volume, as the group edged closer to the pair.
"Hey, don't worry Seto," Rhona smiled softly, "They won't try a thing, they wouldn't dare," she chuckled lightly as she remained smiling brightly.
Seto blinked in surprise before, unbelievably, breaking into a small smile of amusement, but then again Rhona had always been able to make the billionaire smile. Her innocence and love was always able to warm up his heart of ice, ever since Rhona had been first transferred to Domino High School the pair had been best friends.
Aside from Mokuba, Rhona was the only other person whom called the boy-genius by his first name, and he actually allowed it too!
Just at that moment, Rhona smiled widely, her sapphire orbs sparkling happily in the bright sunlight, which shone down on the pair through the huge windows on the side of the school, "Joey! Tristan! Tea! Yugi! Bakura, and-" suddenly a light blush spread itself over Rhona's cheeks as she stuttered the following name, "M-Marik… Hi…"
The group all oblivious to Rhona's sudden shyness, greeted the pair joyfully, "Hey Rhona, how are you today?" Yugi questioned in his usual polite and softhearted manner.
Rhona nodded and smiled kindly, "Oh, I'm great thank you, and yourself Yugi?"
"I'm fine, thanks for asking," Yugi returned the smile, "Kaiba?"
Kaiba stood side-on to the group, his arms crossed as a frown quickly replaced the smile he had only a moment ago, he answered the smaller boy's question with a simple grunt.
"Why do ya always have to be so rude?" Joey questioned, slightly angered by the cold blue-eyed CEO.
"Why do you always have to be such an idiot, Mutt?" Kaiba shot back, his mood becoming worse by the second.
"Don't call me mutt, rich-boy!" Joey cried, stepping closer to the handsome billionaire, as he clenched his hands into tight fists as if he were preparing himself for a street fight.
"I'd like to see you try," Kaiba dared as he motioned to Joey's fists, smugness lining his low yet still quite formal voice.
Tea, Yugi and Tristan all instantly surrounded the blonde street kid, each pleading for him to back down and not start a fight, especially on school grounds!
Joey sighed as he relaxed his muscles, letting his hands fall free, and his anger slowly dissolve away, as he turned away from the other boy casually, "Heh, I'm not gonna waste ma energy beating you up, I've got better things ta do," he waved his hand dismissively, as if Kaiba were a bad odour which was currently plaguing the street kid.
Seto shrugged, "What ever works for you, puppy," he paused, an evil glint arriving in his apparently unfeeling eyes, "I guess if you're too scared to challenge me, then there's no problem, but then again, you always have been the baby of the group, haven't you Wheeler?"
Joey gritted his teeth together, his face reddening in sheer anger, he spun around, speedily stomping up to the stylish CEO, until the pair were face to face, "Just try and say that again! A' dare ya!"
Seto smirked in amusement at how easily he was capable of winding up the amateur duellist, he was about to retort with another insult he had just conjured up but was stopped, when the 'pathetic gang of worthless morons' as Seto called them, cut in, pulling the infuriated Joey away from him, each complaining about the hazel-eyed boy's short temper.
"Seto," a voice filled with disapproval lectured, "That wasn't very nice," the Scot-girl complained, unimpressed by the boy's actions.
"He started it…" was all Seto mumbled before returning to his dignified and proud position, that he usually stood in.
Marik stepped forward, a light blush floating over his cheeks for the moment, as his mouth half-opened ready to speak, when suddenly, the loud continuous drone of the School bell cut in, making each teenager grunt or groan at the idea of having to actually go to class and maybe even learn something.
"Well, I guess it's class time," Tea sighed, obviously a little bummed at the idea of having to split up from the rest of her friends, "Well, I'll see ya all!" she fair-welled, as she walked off to her class.
"Crap! I can't be late for Maths again, Mr. Masters said he'd put me on detention for a month if I were ever late again!" Joey cried, as he ran off at light speed, a puff of smoke following after him, leaving the remaining students to sweat drop before falling over in the classic anime style.
"Dude! Wait for me, man!" Tristan called after his good friend, as he followed him down towards the Maths corridor.
"Later Yugi, see ya at Lunch!" Rhona waved, smiling kindly as she glanced over at the mentioned boy, she shyly turned her gaze over to Marik, "Um… B-bye Marik…"
Marik nodded in comply, "S-see ya…"
"Bye Rhona, Kaiba," Yugi called after the pair, once again oblivious to the tension between the blushing pair.
Bakura glanced between both Rhona and Marik, before cracking into a wide grin, The perfect little couple… he thought softly.
