Jaden quickly turned away and lined his back with the wall. Did he really see what he thought he just saw? Syrus kissing Chazz? Or better yet, Chazz kissing Syrus? How was that even possible? Chazz was an Obelisk Blue, he hated them. 'Apparently not since he just kissed Sy,' Jaden thought bitterly. He shook his head. What was he thinking? How was he thinking? He slumped to the ground. "All of a sudden," he whispered to himself. "I feel really confused…" He tilted his head to look at the sky above the tree tops.

XOX

Syrus ran back to the Slifer dorm. Back to Jaden and away from Chazz. 'What the hell is up with Chazz?', he wondered. 'The guy goes missing for a good two weeks, comes back, then starts kissing me!' He shook his head. This wasn't how he'd wanted things. Not at all…

FLASH + BACK

The middle of class and again Jaden had fallen asleep. Nothing unusual. Worse come to worst he'd always bum the notes from the day from Syrus. Just like he knew he would. See Syrus knew Jaden could always count on him. They were best friends. And he knew he could count on Jaden as well. Writing down a few notes Sy raised his hand to ask a question. Just as his hand rose in the air, he lowered it.

'What the heck?' he wondered. What was it he just saw? It looked familiar. But once he looked in that direction what it was he'd seen from the corner of his eye vanished. 'That was odd,' Syrus thought. He raised his hand again.

Class was half way through when Syrus asked if he could be excused to use the restroom. His teacher, Pro. Banner, smiled and assigned him a pass. Jaden, was still sleeping. 'This is what happens when you stay up all night dueling an invisible opponent,' Syrus thought rushing into the halls. He shook his head. 'An invisible opponent that beat him several times in a row.'

Syrus continued to run in the halls until his eyes caught a piece of spiky dark blue hair. But as soon as he saw it, it was gone. The strange thing, was that it was the same thing he saw earlier when he raised his hand. 'Okay, now it's getting weird,' Syrus thought. For a brief moment he could feel his heart thump heavily in his chest and didn't notice his breathing. Who was that? 'I really shouldn't wonder,' he told himself. 'Curiosity killed that cat after all.'

(I would like to add my own saying real fast, "Curiosity was framed; stupidity killed that cat." Saw that on an icon once.)

Though he didn't want curiosity to run away with him, the young Slifer was too curious to keep curiosity banked. He ran to the corner he saw the spiked hair and looked around the corner, his heart thumping heavily, sending gobs of blood to every part of his body. He gulped as he looked around the corner and saw…absolutely nothing. He breathed a sigh of relief. What did he expect to find? Some crazed stalking murderer of the school wanting to find a student to chop up with the giant ax he'd been carrying? 'Okay Syrus, no more wondering for you.' Syrus told himself after he made himself scared. He sighed and turned around bumping into someone else in the hall.

"Oomph, sorry." Hands grabbed his arms and his heart skipped a beat. 'I'm gonna die of a heart attack if this keeps up,' he thought frantically. Gulping down a lump in his throat at the site of an Obelisk Blue uniform he looked up. Once he had he wished he hadn't. His breath caught and his knees bent. "Chazz!" he exclaimed. "What are you doing…?"

He didn't get a chance to finish before Chazz's hand clamped over his mouth forcing him to keep quiet. Syrus's eyes widened as Chazz leaned his face close to his. "I'm not going to hurt you," Chazz growled low. "I want you to meet me after class is through. Come by yourself and don't tell anyone." With that he roughly pulled his hand away and headed down the hall without looking back.

Syrus touched his face. What the…? He flexed his right arm where Chazz had grabbed it. It wasn't really sore, the feeling was just odd. He didn't know what Chazz wanted, but he was afraid to not show up after class. Leaning over he grabbed his pass and headed for the restroom, glad that he hadn't lost it. Heading back to class he wondered how he would keep it from Jaden. He was forced to keep it from him. What would happen if Jaden found out? He couldn't keep it a secret forever!

He sighed. 'Sooner or later Jaden'll find out. With his luck, he'll get it from me long before school ends…Then I guess there's just one thing for me to do.' He took in a deep breath and set his mind to doing the one thing he never thought he'd have to do. 'I'll avoid Jaden.'

And he did. He avoided Jaden until classes were over. It was hard, especially when Jaden called him over, when he waved at him, and worse, when he heard the slight hurt in his voice when Jaden thought he did something wrong. All of which were putting cracks in his heart. Several times before the end of school he'd wanted to cry because of it. But he didn't. He kept in control and avoided Jaden. He even avoided his brother, Alexis, Chumley, everyone. He knew that if he was he'd eventually tell someone, and he wasn't supposed to.

After classes Syrus found Chazz outside the school building. Once he saw him the Obelisk student started walking away, waving for him to follow. He did. He followed quickly until he met up with him in the woods behind the Ra Yellow dorm. There Chazz leaned against one of the trees with his arms crossed. Syrus walked up to him tentatively. "Alright. I'm here. What did you want?"

Chazz leaned forward uncrossing his arms. The mere movement made Syrus's heart jump in his chest and up his throat. "You haven't changed much." Chazz told him. Syrus swallowed. "I get the feeling that's not what you want to talk about," he told him. Chazz shrugged. "That's half of it my Slifer Slacker."

Syrus blinked. 'My Slifer Slacker'? Did he know he said that? Or how it sounded? As Chazz stepped toward him, he stepped back. He didn't want to be closer then he had to be. "I told you I'm not going to hurt you." Chazz said noticing that Syrus had been moving away from him. "I know." Syrus told him.

"Then why do you keep moving away?"

Sy shrugged. "Nervous movement."

"No it's not." Chazz caught a hold of his right arm again. Syrus flinched. What should he do? Somehow, it wasn't Chazz he'd imagined holding his arm. Or telling him to meet him alone in the middle of the woods like this.

Chazz noticed Syrus flinch and released his arm. He didn't want to hurt him. Just tell him something. "Look," he began. "During the two weeks I've been gone I've had a lot of time to think." Syrus looked at him. He was glad he didn't take the opportunity to run away even though he wouldn't let him anyway. "I know it doesn't make sense, but." How the hell was he supposed to express this sort of thing in words? Chazz gripped his hands into fists. There was only one way he knew how to do this sort of thing. Turning around he caught Sy again by the arms, pulled him into him, and kissed him hard.

He could feel Syrus stiffen against him but he wasn't about to let go. He'd waited to do this and this was what he was going to do. The feel of Syrus's lips under his was close to making him melt like butter. He wondered if this was how Jaden felt when he wondered what it would be like to kiss the blunette. Jaden had never told him such a thing, but then again, he didn't have to. The Slifer slacker basically wore his heart for Syrus on his sleeve. It was obvious, at least to Chazz, that he often wondered what it would be like to kiss him. But it also seemed that he did nothing to quell his curiosity. And he had.

END FLASH + BACK

Syrus slammed open the door to their dorm room. "Jaden!" he shouted. Chumley snorted in the top bunk but didn't wake. Syrus gulped when he found that Jaden wasn't around. Where was he? Slamming the door shut he ran back to where he was. The one he wanted to find and talk to was nowhere to be found. What was he supposed to do now?

Running back to the Ra Yellow dorm Syrus tripped and fell to his knees. He grunted as the air was knocked out of him. Just as he sat up on his knees it began to rain. As the raindrops slid down his cheeks like tears he looked up to the sky. He was confused. How did he feel? How was he supposed to feel? What was he supposed to do now? He couldn't even find Jaden. 'There's one good thing about the rain,' Sy thought to himself sadly. 'Even if someone was around, they wouldn't notice my crying. I don't know what to do!' He brought his hands to his face and cried.

A/N: Let's review so far shall we? Just to see if we're going a little too fast…

Syrus encounters Chazz in the school halls.

He can't tell anyone he saw Chazz and meets him after classes.

Jaden follows him thinking something's wrong.

Chazz kisses Syrus even though Syrus didn't want him to.

Jaden sees Chazz kissing Syrus and is shocked, not knowing what to think.

Syrus looks for Jaden who is still in the woods wanting to talk to him.

Sy realizes he's confused and is now sitting in the rain.

Did we get all that? Let's see what happens next!
