A month had past since the snow day and everyone was getting back into the fact that school was going to be out for a half term. Everyone was making plans to go places. It was brake time and the gang was sitting under the Sakura tree talking. Yugi was writing in his algebra book because he forgot about the work. Joey, Tristan and Duke where drinking. Kek and Atemu where just enjoying the sun, while Emily and Yami where reading for their English class.
"So where you off?" Asked Yugi.
"I'm off to see Serenity and my mum." Said Joey. "Hopefully I will get to see you guys as well." He said smiling and then taking a sip of is drink.
"Nothing really." Said Duke and Tristan.
"What about you five?" Asked Joey turning to them. "What you doing?"
"We're gonna go to a convent in..." Kek stopped and turned to Yugi. "Where is the convent?" Kek asked Yugi.
Yugi hit his head. "For the last time Kek the convent is in Tokyo." Said Yugi frustrated. "How hard is it for you to remember?" He asked.
"Sorry." Said Kek. Yami and Emily carried on reading while everyone else laughed. Yugi shook his head.
"So what's the convent on? Anime, Magazines?" Asked Tristan curious.
"It's about anime mostly but there's gonna be other stuff there too." Said Kek leaning back on the tree. "And some dueling."
"Who's driving this time? Last time Yami was angry and almost turned the car around." Said Duke remembering when they last went to a convent together.
"I am. Emily's coming too. She's never been to one in her life so we're taking her there for the week end." Said Atemu finally looking at them. "We drive on Friday and leave on Monday morning. It will take a long time to get there." Everyone knew that Atem and Yami like didn't like long drives, so they wouldn't hear the end of it.
"Hey Em. What's x+20-14= 66?" Asked Yugi turning to her. They all turned to her and Yami to see that they hadn't listened to a word they said.
"EMILY!!!!" Yelled Yugi. Emily and Yami jumped dropping their book and losing their pages. Yami looked really mad because he had lost is page. Emily looked at Yugi oblivious to everything that had happened.
"Yes Yugi?" Asked Emily innocently.
"Have you been listening?" Asked Kek leaning forward.
"Listening to what?" Asked Yami calming down. All the others hit their heads. This was getting to be a usual thing.
"I asked Emily what is x+20-14=66? I don't want to have to say it again!" Said Yugi. Yugi was bad at algebra no matter how much he listened he always needed help after.
"Let's see... 20 minus 14 is... take away 6..." She was working the sum out. The boys had learned she had a habit of when working out sums to miss some stages out. "The answer is x=60." She smiled at Yugi as he wrote it down. "If we get homework remind me to bring mine to the convent." She said with a little giggle.
The school bell rang indicating it was time to go back to class.
It was lunch time. Yami and Yugi sat down in the class room. Kek and Atem had to see a teacher about some work. Emily walked through the door and over to them. She sat down and got out her lunch. She then noticed that Atem and Kek weren't there.
"Where's Kek and Atem?" She asked curiously.
"They had to see a teacher." Said Yami. Both Yami and Yugi watched Emily's actions. She looked down at the table and looked as if she was thinking.
"What's wrong?" Asked Yami. Emily raised her head.
"Have you noticed anything weird with Kek and Atem lately?" She asked even more curious than the boys had seen her before. Yami and Yugi looked at each other and then back at Emily. They leaned on the desk with arms folded and looked at her interested. It was obvious she thought something.
"No why?" Asked Yugi.
"Do you have something to say about them?" Asked Yami smirking a little.
She blushed. "Well...um..." She didn't know what to say. "Well... remember the snow day? Well, I then started to think that maybe there was something going on with Atem and Kek." She said. "Maybe that they like, like each other."
Yami and Yugi laughed at what she said. Emily tilted her head to the side and showed her confused expression quite clearly.
"Did I miss something?" She asked clueless.
"Yeah they both have a thing for each other but they wont admit it." Said Yami calming down.
Yugi stopped laughing. "Their stubborn and no matter how much we try to get them together, they wont." Said Yugi now calmed down.
Emily's confusion turned into a small mysterious smile. "Well you haven't had me on your team before." Said Emily mysteriously.
"What does that mean?" Asked Yugi.
"You'll see." Said Emily smiling.
Yami hit his forehead. "I'm going to regret this." He said as Emily and Yugi laughed.
Finally it was the end of school of Friday. Emily walked with Yami, Yugi, Kek and Atemu to the Turtle Game Shop. Emily's mum was going to drop of Emily's things and say good bye to her from the game shop.
"So how is your mum with the week end thing?" Asked Atem looking down on the female of the group.
Emily looked up at him with a natural look. "She's alright with it, but the first sign of trouble she's dragging me home." She said and then gave a giggle.
"I'm actually surprised she let you come. I mean no mother in their right mind would usually do that." Said Kek throwing his bag over his shoulder.
"Yeah that's why I told her you where gay." Said Emily and walked a little faster than everyone else. All the boys stopped and stared at her. After the boys recovered from the shock they ran after her.
"You told her striate off the bat." Said Yami in disbelieve.
Emily smiled. "Well how else was I going to come. Besides it's not like I lied. Is it?" She said as if it was nothing.
"But people still aren't okay with gays yet." Said Yugi trying to keep up with everyone.
"And who cares about others." She said. "It's who you love so what does it matter to everyone else think." She smiled and slowed down as she saw everyone having trouble keeping up with her.
"You have a strong opinion on love don't you?" Asked Atemu. Emily nodded as the Turtal Shop came into view.
"Race ya." Said Emily and started to run. They all started to have a race to the shop. By the time they got there it was Atem and Yami first, Kek and then Yugi and Emily last.
"Your fast." Emily panted bending over to catch her breath. Yugi and Kek were doubled over as well.
"Sorry." Said Atem smiling away while Yami smirked.
Once everyone had caught their breath they walked into the game shop. There they saw Mr Muto behind the counter and a woman talking to him. The bell went and both looked towards the door.
The woman was in the late 30's, tall and quite slim. She had blond curly hair reaching just below her shoulders and blue eyes just like Emily's. She wore light blue jeans covering black heels and a blue long sleeve v-neck top. She also had a black bag slung on her shoulder. She had a bit of make up on. A light shade of red, blusher and blue eye shadow.
"Hello. You kids are a bit early today." Said Mr Muto. The five teenagers walked in letting the door shut behind them. They all smiled at the adults in the room.
"Yeah we had a race." Said Yami smiling. Emily ran up to the woman and hugged her and the woman hugged Emily back.
"Hi mum." Said Emily, her smile bigger than before.
"How's my girl?" Asked the woman in a calming voice. Emily lifted her head and they let go of each other.
"It was great." She said and gave a little giggle. All the boys watched as Emily and her mother had a discussion about the day. Yugi and Kek felt happy for Emily but also felt sad. They had lost their parents a while ago and that made them close but it had left a whole in their heart that could never be filled. Emily turned to Yugi and Kek and saw they looked sad. She lost her smile a bit before walking over to her friends.
"These are my friends mum. This is Yami, Atemu, Kek and Yugi." She said smiling and pointing to each boy.
"Hello." Said the boys smiling.
"I hope you boys are ready. You'll have to leave soon if your going." Said Mr Muto leaning on the counter.
"I did it last night." Said Yugi.
"I got to put in my sneekers and then I'm done." Said Kek.
"I need a jacket and I'm done." Said Atem.
"I'm done too." Said Yami.
"Well then go and get ready you two. And the rest of you should change too. I don't think you want to go in your uniform." Said Mr Muto. Atem and Kek went into the house to do their bags.
"The shop will close soon. Why don't you go to the living room and I'll be there in a minute." Said Mr Muto cleaning some things from the counter.
"Emily your cloths are in your bag." Said her mother. Emily nodded to her mother.
"Come on Emily. You can change in the spare room." Said Yugi taking Emily's hand and Yami following them.
Mr Muto and Emily's mum sat in the living room talking. After a while the teenagers came down the stairs one by one. Atem was first to come down. He had changed into dark blue jeans with a few rips in them and a black tank top showing his muscular arms. He also wore black shoes like he always did. He then had a black duffel bag slung over his left shoulder. The down stairs came Kek wearing almost the exact same as Atem, but instead of a black tank top he had a red one on and sneekers. He had a blue duffel bag on his back.
Then came Yami. Yami had jeans, a black short sleeve t-shirt with the word 'Duel' on it in red and his black shoes. He had a black duffel bag like Atem's only it had white lines on the handles slung over him right shoulder. Yugi then came down stairs wearing almost the same as Yami, only he had s purple short sleeve t-shirt with the word 'Darkmagician' on it it a darker purple and sneekers. He had a blue duffel bag with black lines on the hands slung on his right shoulder. All of the boys had decided to skip the leather today since they would be travelling for a while.
Emily was the last to come down stairs(1). She wore a light blue denim skirt and a thin strap pink t-shirt with a picture of the Darkmagician Girl in the centre. Then she had white boots that went up to her knees. She then had a red duffel bag held up by both hands.
"I see your already to go." Said Mr Muto standing up. All the teenagers nodded.
"Yeah and we should get going or it will take us longer to get to the hotel." Said Atem happily. All the boys and Mr Muto walked out to the car out side the house. Emily was about to go after them when her mother grabbed her arm.
"I can see why you like them Emily. They care for you a lot. I can see it in their eyes." Said her mother smiling. She took her black bag off her shoulder and placed it around Emily.
"What is this?" Asked Emily confused.
"It's a video camera. I thought you might want to record your first trip on your own with friends." Said her mum smiling. Emily hugged her mother happily.
"Thanks mum." Said Emily letting go of her mother.
Both walked out side to see the boys packing the things into the trunk. Emily walked over and placed her bag in the boot of the car. Atem then closed the boot of the car. Yugi and Kek then hugged their Grandpa good bye and they got in the car. Atem sat in the drivers seat(2). Emily sat in the front passengers seat. Yami sat behind Atem then Yugi was in the middle and Kek was behind Emily. They closed the car door and they waved good bye to the adults. Yugi then noticed Emily's black bag.
"What's in the bag Em?" Asked Yugi.
Emily turned her head to them. "My mother gave it to me. It's a video camera. We can record our trip to the convent." Said Emily smiling.
"That's a good idea." Said Kek.
"Yeah. Your mum is pretty cool Em." Said Yami.

Okay well that's this chapter done. Sorry if it was boring and I'm sorry for taking my time getting this out but I've had so much work it's been impossible to write a story.
