Kana starred at the sky to watch the clouds floating by as she sat up on the roof of the school. She sighed, "Why can't I just go back in there?" she thought back to before she left, when she first looked at Yami, her body instinctively shuddered, "Oh, that's right." she concluded in her head, Yami. She shivered again, I should go back, maybe things will get better if I confront him instead of avoiding him. Kana took in a deep breath, and stood up. "Alright." Kana turned around and went through the door back into the school and toward her classroom.
15 minutes had passed since Kana had left, the lesson had already ended, and there were 30 minutes left to do the assignment given to the class. The others were starting to believe Kana had gone home, until the door opened, and everyone looked up to see Kana slowly walk in the door. No one said anything as she walked up to Ms. Minako and received the work to do in the class, then walked back to her seat, not making any eye contact with anyone as she sat down. More and more minutes passed and no one could say anything to her, they wanted to make sure she was alright, but the look on her face made them think otherwise. She just had a blank stare on her face as if her mind wasn't in this world, but her body was also tense, like she was ready to strike should someone say the wrong thing to her. Kana continued on her worksheet, well aware of the eyes that were starring at her, but she did her best to stay focused. Once she was finished, she placed the paper on the corner of her desk, and took a deep breath as she prepared herself for her next challenge.
It's time, she thought, I need to face him now and hopefully figure out what happened to me earlier.
Slowly, mentally checking herself to make sure she was ready, she turned her head and looked at Yami. Yami also was finished with his work and was looking at her now as well. Kana felt her face flush a little, but took in a couple breaths and considered herself ready.
"Hello." she said to him.
Yami nodded his head to her, "Hello."
Kana swallowed to keep her voice under control, "I'm sorry I left so suddenly like that, something came over me and I had to get out for a moment."
"I understand, you don't have to apologize."
"Well, it's just, I felt kinda rude just leaving like that as soon as you came in the class."
Yami didn't say anything, he just watched Kana's face as her expressions kept changing, from happy, to embarrassed, then back to happy.
"Umm…" Kana quickly thought of a conversation to start. "So…what do you think of Domino City so far?"
"Huh?" Yami seemed as if he was pulled out of a deep thought, he took a moment to consider Kana's question. "Well, I only just came back to Domino City yesterday, so I can't really give my opinion on the city yet."
"Wait, came back to Domino?"
"Yes." Yami nodded, "I haven't been to Domino City since I was 6 years old."
"Oh." Kana became very interested, "So, since then you've been in Egypt? Studying?"
"Yes, for as long as I can remember, I've had a great curiosity of Egypt's history."
"So…what did you study?"
"Well, we mostly studied Ancient Pyramids, and tombs to Egypt's great Pharaohs."
Kana felt a spark inside her when the word 'Pharaoh' left his lips, but couldn't venture a guess why.
"But…" Yami started to continue, then looked down, not sure if he should finish.
"What?"
"No, it's silly." said Yami.
"I want to know." pushed Kana.
Yami shook his head.
"C'mon, you've mentioned it, and I want to know what makes it so silly that you want to hide it from me."
What the heck is with me? thought Kana, This is nothing like me! I never say this kind of stuff, especially to my best friends brother who just moved back here!
She heard Yami chuckle. She looked up to see him smiling and slightly laughing at her. Kana blushed. "What?" she asked.
"You're a funny one." he said still chuckling.
Kana's face turned even more red at his words, but, she couldn't help laughing a little at herself as well.
"You two seem to be getting along well."
Yami and Kana turned to see Yugi looking at them.
"I'm glad, we were worried when you suddenly left like that, Kana."
"Thanks for worrying Yugi, but I'm fine now." At least I seem to be.
"That's good." Yugi smiled.
Before they new it, the first hour had drawn to an end, and their second hour would begin soon. The students began moving around to talk to their friends, even Jounochi, Honda, and Anzu made their way back to talk with Yugi, Kana, and Yami.
"Hey Kana, how're ya feelin'?" asked Jounochi.
"Better." she replied.
"That's good." said Anzu. "We thought you might have gone home."
"Actually, I went on the roof."
"Again? What is it with you and that roof?" asked Honda.
"Oh, like I'm the only one who goes up there? If I recall correctly, Honda, you were up there just the other day singing about how much you miss Shizuka."
"WHAT!" yelled Jounochi.
Honda turned red. "No, I didn't, I swear!"
"Hooonnndaaa." Jounochi growled, "Didn't I tell you to stay away from my sister?"
"I haven't seen Shizuka in so long! How could I have gone near her?" Honda argued.
As the argument between the two continued, Yugi, Anzu, and Kana couldn't help but laugh at them. Yami turned to Kana,
"Do they do this a lot?" he asked.
Kana was laughing so much, she just nodded her head. Yami looked back to the fight between the two friends.
"Alright class have a seat." called the new teacher in the class.
Everyone took their seat and quitted down as their second hour teacher walked to the desk and prepared his papers for the lesson. As he was getting ready, Kana folded her hands, placed her elbows on her desk, and glared at him, Yami noticed.
"Are you alright?" he whispered.
Kana shook her head. "It's Mr. Fuzaka, worst teacher in the school."
"What makes you say that?"
"That man is out to get me, he want's me out of this school, I swear it."
"Why's that?"
Kana looked at him and smirked, "Can't stand someone who likes to state their own opinion, especially when it's against their rules."
Yami looked puzzled. Kana realized he didn't get it, and pointed out that her clothes were the boys' uniform instead of the girls' uniform. Yami raised his eyebrows and made an 'oh' shape with his mouth, then they both turned back to the front for the lesson.
Mr. Fuzaka turned and started writing stuff on the chalkboard, copying the data in his lesson handbook. The whole class was silent, until…
"Ms. Kinto, please feel free to stop burning holes in the back of my head with your eyes." he stated plainly.
Kana scowled and her stare became more intense. Mr. Fuzaka turned around after finishing his writing, and looked at Kana.
"Ms. Kinto, any more of your attitude and you will be sent to the principal's office."
Why won't he stop singling me out! I'm not the only one who gives him these glares, yet I'm the only one he calls out! He makes me so angry!
Kana managed to make her appearance look calm, but inside she still had a storm brewing. Yami also was becoming angered by Mr. Fuzaka calling out Kana so many times when class had barely started.
I swear I will punish him if he continues to hurt her, he thought.
Yami widened his eyes once he realized what just went though his mind.
Punish? What am I thinking? That's not like me, but, it didn't seem weird saying that as a means of protection for Kana. Why?
Mr. Fuzaka began the lesson, while Kana gave him secret stares when his back was turned, and Yami still had his mind on what he thought about Mr. Fuzaka.
A/N: Another chapter done! Hope you all enjoyed :) things are only going to get even weirder between Kana and Yami, as they experience more connections to their past selves, Kilala and Atem. Please R&R!
