Everyone who wastes their time and reads this (Thank you, I love you.) please excuse me for spewing all of this twaddle.

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, Firez does not own Jounouchi or Seto, but they are both on her Christmas list.

Jounouchi thumped his forehead against the desk. "Why can't I figure out this algebra crap?" he asked his friend Yugi, angrily. Yugi shrugged. Jounouchi was always struggling with his algebra homework.

"You could always ask Kaiba for help," Tristan joked, punching Jounouchi lightly on the arm. Jounouchi's eyes flashed over to the young CEO. Jounouchi saw his brown hair and his blue eyes and turned red. Lately, every single time he looked at Kaiba, Jounouchi blushed. He wasn't sure why, but the CEO made his face flush and his palms sweat.

"No!" Jounouchi shouted firmly. "I refuse!" I chatter-filled classroom fell silent as everyone turned to stare at him. Even Kaiba turned his head, which made Jounouchi turn even redder. Fortunately for Jounouchi, everyone started talking again after a few moments of staring.

Suddenly, the teacher, a young man who slacked more than he taught, entered the room. He sat down at his desk. The students quieted down and waited to see what he had to say.

"Unfortunately, the principal had demanded that I assign you a project," he announced. The class groaned. "You'll be working in pairs of my choosing." The class groaned again."And you will create a PowerPoint on a topic you pull out of this baggie." The teacher held up a baggie full of paper slips.

The teacher then began to draw slips and read out the pairs. Students cheered or moaned when they heard the name of their partner. Jounouchi felt more and more stressed out about the project as his friends were assigned to other people.

"Kaiba-san, Katsuya-kun." The teacher called out.

"No! You've made a mistake!" Jounouchi yelled while standing up and pointing at Kaiba in anger. "I can't work with Kaiba!" Kaiba was busy with work, and had not been paying attention to the teacher.

'What?" he asked, when he noticed Jounouchi pointing at him.

"Do something, rich ass!" Jounouchi yelled, sure that the affluent CEO could do something about their predictament.

"Er..." Kaiba said, because he did not know what was going on.

"I will accept no bribes," said the teacher matter-of-factly. "You two will work together, and that is final."

Kaiba finally realized what was happening. He sighed. "Yes, sir," Kaiba said, wanting to avoid any trouble.

"Now that that is settled, let's see what our topics will be," said the teacher.

Are you excited about what will happen next? If I were you, I wouldn't be. Thanks for reading all the way to the end of this appallingly short and awful chapter. (Pinky promise I'll have the next one done by the end of the weekend.
