Hey there! I just wanted to clear things up a bit about the first chapter. When Bakura and Amane were having their conversation, she actually asked who he was referring to, and he told her that he was talking about Atem and Mana, but I kind of deleted that part and forgot to change how it went on.
Okay, I can now continue with the story, thanks for reading!!
I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh.
Just my luck. Amane walked down the halls, swinging the little purse in her hand. They looked even more intimidating when they were empty. And large. She scoffed. The school was big, and yet, there were no restrooms on her floor! Oh yes, let's build a giant freaking school, and put restrooms on every floor! Except the third floor. There are sophomores there. We mustn't let the sophomores go to the bathroom at piece! They have to walk for miles, and get lost in this incredible maze that we call 'a school'.
She had to find the stairs, which were at the other side of the wing. Her class was 2A, the furthest class from the stairs, so it was a long walk to her destination. She would have to walk by all of the other classes first.
Amane sighed. In her old school she didn't have problems like this. It was smaller and cute, and she didn't have to worry about getting lost while trying to go to the bathroom. There were two just in her floor.
Freshman year was good. If only her big brother hadn't ruined it by asking their parents if she could attend his school. His reasoning was that Ryou felt lonely without her.
Bakura, Ryou and Amane all went to the same school until two years ago when Bakura graduated from middle school, and enrolled at Domino High. Last year, Ryou had followed his brother, whereas Amane had decided to stay and continue her education at her own school. Bakura didn't like that at all. He was protective of those two little idiots, and wanted keep them under his eyesight. So when the summer came, he used Ryou, and added that he was worrying about her lovely little sister.
Amane laughed at the thought. She knew better, of course. He just wanted to keep the boys away, and assumed that if she went to the same school as him, he could accomplish that.
Yeah, you keep doing that big brother. She smirked and pulled out her phone from her jacket's pocket. You keep believing that you're keeping them away.
She checked the clock, and made sure he was on break, so she didn't get him into trouble. She dialed the number and observed the walls as she waited the phone ring, her phone raised to her ear.
"Hello?" said her dream boy.
"I'm not interrupting anything right?" Amane asked. She hoped not.
"No, not at all. I was actually going to call you first, but...you were...supposed to be in class- are you skipping class young lady, because if you are I will come down there and..."
"Will you please calm down? I asked to use the bathroom. I really needed to go." She looked down to the purse. Really. "Also, you know me better than that."
"Right. But, why would you call me on the way to the bathroom? I mean that's just clingy."
"Well, it takes me a little less than 10 minutes to reach the bathroom, I thought I wouldn't waste it, you know?"
"Oh yeah, I forgot that. We still have our more than enough bathrooms back here." he teased.
She turned the corner, and walked through the long hallway, and finally walked up the stairs. "So are you coming tonight?"
"Yep. Don't forget to buy popcorn this time please. I already told Bakura, but knowing him, he's going to forget it for sure. I'm trusting you with this."
"What an honor, thank you. But we have popcorn at home, no worries." Amane reached the fourth floor and walked to the restrooms. They were a few steps away. "I have to go now. I'll call you after school alright?"
"Okay. Love you."
Amane blushed like crazy, this wasn't the first time he told her this, but she always went tomato red like it was the first time she heard him say it.
"I love you too." She paused. "This feels weird when you're standing in front of a bathroom."
"Oh, must you always ruin the moment?" he said with fake disappointment that made Amane laugh.
"Bye..." She ended the call and deleted the number from her recents. It was a shame that she had to do this whenever they talked, or to delete the messages they have sent to each other.
Amane put her hand on the door's handle, and was about the open it but a sound that came behind it made her stop. Was that...
It was coming from a girl. Then another one followed. From someone else. And Amane was certain that the second voice did not come from a girl. Is someone... Oh my...
She knocked on the door. I'm knocking on a public bathroom's door. God, this is stupid. "Hello? Is eveything alright in there?"
Maybe she had assumed wrong. Maybe a girl started feeling unwell, and her friend, who is for some reason a boy, was trying to help her out. That didn't sound like she was sick though. It was far from it.
She stepped away when the door suddenly opened, and revealed Mana. Amane took a second to observe the girl. She was taking in quick breathes, her lips stretched to a smile. Her brown poofy hair looked like somebody was trying to tie it into knots. She saw a kiss mark where she could easily hide by buttoning her crinkled shirt's open collar.
"Hey! Aren't you supposed to be in class lovely?" Mana asked with a cheerful tone. She was keeping the door closed as possible, and blocking Amane's view with her own body.
"Aren't you supposed to be in class?" asked Amane, and put her hands on her hips. She didn't come here to be questioned.
"Yeah, uh... I had to use the bathroom."
"You have a hickey on your neck." Amane said with a flat tone. Mana laughed nervously and touched the damp surface on her neck.
"You don't say..." The brunette averted her eyes from Amane's, searching for an answer. "What are you doing here anyway? This is the junior's bathroom."
"There is no sophomore's bathroom!" Amane flung her arms around in annoyance. "Don't even make me start about that."
Mana looked away as she thought of last year. "Oh yeah..." Then she saw the purse, dangling from a string that was around Amane's wrist. "Ah, okay."
Amane straightened her skirt, and cleared her throat. "Can I enter now?" She sure wasn't patient.
Mana looked inside the bathroom, and whispered something. Then she turned to Amane. "Could you please give me a second?" Without waiting for a response, she quickly shut the door closed.
Why me?
A few seconds later, Mana opened the door, and stepped away so the girl finally could enter. Amane quirked an eyebrow as she noticed that Mana was staring. The second she was inside, Mana closed the door and sighed. She is very strange. Good thing she's pretty cool too.
Amane looked around. There were four stalls, and one of them was being used. Amane grinned when she noticed something on the sink and looked at Mana. She had buttoned her collar.
The white haired girl walked up to the closed stall door and raised her hand to wave at whoever was inside. I have this crazy idea, but to make it work...
Someone held onto her wiggling fingers. Their hand was warm.
"Hi big brother!" Amane sang. And that someone dropped her hand immediately.
"What?" he yelled out from inside the stall. The door opened fast, while Mana and Amane started to laugh.
There Atem was, his face red from both anger and the previous act. "What would his business be here?"
"Sorry, I just knew if had said your name you wouldn't respond." Amane said through her giggles. Her laughter was fading as she observed him as well. His leather choker was gone, and she saw a few kiss marks around his neck. 'It's a style' my ass. I found your little secret Mr. Moto. Some of them were fading, reminding Amane that this wasn't the first time.
She walked to the sink and took the choker. "I suppose this is yours?" She held it to Atem. The boy's eyes widened, he took the choker from her, and fastened it around his neck.
The trio stayed silent then. What was there to be said?
"I have questions." Amane started. "First of all, what is going on between you two? Are you rivals, friends, or lovers?" She turned to Mana. "Why do you keep flirting with my brother, and then make out with Atem?" She pointed and looked at him. "And why are you okay with this? If you're not okay with this, then why aren't you doing something about it except pouting like a child?"
The couple looked at each other, and then at Amane. Mana was the one who decided to answer.
"Amane... There are things you don't know that caused this."
Amane rolled her eyes. "You pretend to hate each other, but actually love the other one. What is there to not understand?" Though it was complicated, Amane had gotten the basic idea.
"Will you just...nevermind." Mana got closer to the girl and put her hands on Amane's shoulders. "Look Amane, this is really important, okay? You have to forget what you saw."
"I'll forget it if you tell me about it." Amane suggested.
Mana sighed and let go of her shoulders. "Alright. Me and Atem are dating. But we prefer keeping it hidden. Does that satisfy your curiosity?"
"Yeah, I got that already." She rolled her eyes again. Then it came to her. "Why do you flirt with big brother then?"
"She does it to piss me off." Atem said behind her.
Mana snorted. "That, and to make people think I'm into Bakura."
Amane frowned at that. "But that's playing with his emotions!" She knew Bakura didn't look like he had actual feelings inside him, and that he could hide them very well.
"It's not if he knows I don't mean it." Mana stated. "He knows about us."
So he wasn't just assuming things when he told me that. "Okay, I understand that too. What I still don't understand is why? What happened to make you keep this a secret?" Not like I could judge them. I'm no better.
Atem and Mana shared a glance. "That's not important." said Atem.
Amane sighed. She wanted to know. She had weird habits like that. Once she found out about something, she had to learn more of it. "Would you guys tell me about it if I...shared my own story with you?" she asked.
"Your own?" Mana's attention was sparked. "What's going on with you?"
Looking down as she played with her fingers, Amane spoke. "I have a boyfriend. And we have to keep our relationship a secret too, especially from big brother. You see, they're best friends. We met him at third grade. Well, when he and big brother were in third grade. He lived close by to us, and went to the same school. Big brother and him would agree on pretty much anything and hung out together a lot, soon they became best friends. Therefore, me and Ryou got to know him as well."
"Oh, I see. You developed a crush on him?" Mana asked.
"Kind of. We were friends too. Whenever he came over to our house, he would always spend some time with me too. I didn't saw it anything more than friendship at first. Then I realized it was something more. I denied it until he confessed his love two years ago. That made me accept my own feelings, after accepting his. And last year was the best. Because big brother and Ryou were here, and I was back there with him. Big brother had trusted him with keeping an eye on me. But he wasn't entirely convinced, so here I am." She breathed out. "Maybe he already knows. I would probably be dead if he knew though."
Mana and Atem stared at her. "Amane..." said Atem, while looking at Mana.
Amane felt weird after saying all that. She had no reason to trust them. They were her friends, but she had met them a month ago, and that didn't seem enough to trust a person with an information like this, but what's done was done.
"We keep it secret because of my brother too." Mana looked at the girl. "Atem and him are very close friends. But he is protective of me, and there is no way he would let us be together." She chuckled. "I can't believe how similar our love life is!"
Atem turned to Amane and held out his hand to her. "Your secret is safe with us, as long as ours is with you."
Without a doubt Amane took his hand to shake it.
Wow that was fast. I really love these pure souls you have no idea. In the middle of Amane's long speech, I remembered that she was actually dead, and knowing that she probably didn't experience these kind of things made my eyes water.
So uhmm... I hope you liked this chapter. You would make me glad if you would tell me your opinions on it, though I guess it doesn't matter because I will keep writing about my sweet angel anyway.
This is cryingmybest, and I love a dead girl.
