"Seems like you three get along just fine~" she laughed lightly, gathering all of her and tying it up into a high pony tail, although her hair was extremely long and now instead of touching her thighs, it touches her lower back.
Jaden laughed. "Oh yes, with friends like those, who needs enemies huh? Little teasers." The boy noticed his friend tie her hair up and he couldn't help but smile at it. "It looks good up." He looked away just in case the heat rose in his cheeks once more as he complimented her.
She laughed at him lightly before hearing his compliment and smiling a little. "You think?" She asked, gazing at her hair. She wasn't one who could take compliments that well, her confidence in herself and the way she looked weren't that high.
The two came across an intersection, one went to the harbour and the other went deeper in to the trees and shrubbery. "Which way would you like to go?"
Jaden looked back at her and smiled. "I know so." He replied honestly. It really did look good on her. As they got to the intersection, Jaden looked both ways with a laugh. "Making me decide are you? I've never been good with that kind of thing." He looked at his watch for a moment before making his decision. "We could further into the forest for a bit, and when the sun starts to set, we could head back to the harbour and watch it if ya want." He offered.
Her smile widened at his words before noting his words and nodding. "That sounds like a great idea~" she smiled and walked onto the path on the right. As they walked slowly through, the trees started to thicken and the path started to narrow down. Without realising it, Calypso moved closer to Jaden and accidentally bumped him. "Sorry~" she pardoned.
The Slifer boy smiled. "No worries. You're just dying to get close to me, huh~?" He teased before slowly moving closer so their arms were touching, hoping she'd be okay with it. Calypso poked her tongue out at him and nudged hum slightly before laughing. She felt his arm on hers but she didn't mind. It felt kinda nice actually.
"It's so beautiful out here, don't cha think? I love it out here." He commented, enjoying the scenery.
"I know, I wonder how much wildlife is thriving out here too~" she smiled as she gazed around. She looked up at the sky to see it's almost covered up by trees.
He gazed up at the trees, admiring how dark it got due to the trees blocking out the light. The young duellist watched as birds flew between trees, chirping at one another with a beautiful melody.
"It gets pretty dark in here doesn't it?" He then stood up tall, posing for the girl. "But never fear! Jaden-man is here to protect you from the creepy monsters hidden in the darkness!" He joked, acting silly to have some fun.
Her sapphire eyes gazed about, admiring the natural beauty of the small forest. She was glad that the school was here, if she ever needed a break then she could hide away in the forest.
She blinked slightly at the sudden change before giggling at his childish antics and deciding to join in on the fun. "Oh Jaden-man! Thank god your here, you're my hero!" She joked around clung to his arm and feigned to faint like a damsel in distress.
Jaden laughed and wrapped his arm around her. "Fear not, my maiden! I shall protect you!" He chuckled, holding the girl close, although he did have to laugh at the irony of it, considering she was the one saving him.
"Please save me!" She cried, giggling lightly as she let him hold her. She saw the irony too but she didn't really mind.
"We are probably the weirdest people on this academy, but that's okay." He joked with a bright grin. "I like being weird. I wouldn't be Jaden Yuki without a touch of weirdness!"
"I'm not quite used to weird, buy I like it~" she chuckled. Then, with an extremely bright blush on her face, she moved slightly and looked away. "T-That was fun."
Jaden smirked when he saw the blush and he moved a bit closer. "Why hey there Calypso, why are you blushing so much~?" He asked with a tease, even though he himself was blushing at their closeness.
"M-Me? Blushing? Pfft, please~" She looked at him with an amused but obviously blushing expression. "You should take a look in the mirror too, Jaden-man~" her blush inevitably brightened when he moved closer.
The boy moved a bit closer with a gentle laugh. "Oh yeah? I know I'm blushing. I'm not denying it unlike a certain Obelisk Blue~" Jaden teased, raising his eyebrow in amusement. "I can keep a secret~"
Her eyes looked at him with a small challenge in her eyes as she leaned a bit closer to the brunette, mere centimetres away from him. "I'm not denying anything~" she smirked in amusement. "I think it's just the heat of today~"
"Oh really now~?" Jaden whispered softly before slowly leaning in a bit more, his lips nearly touching hers. His chocolate brown eyes met her sapphire eyes, and he stared into them for a while. Calypso found herself holding her breath as he whispered, his lips a mere moment away from hers. Her cheeks went even brighter as she gazed into his chocolate brown eyes and could almost feel herself melting. Just a little closer...
Before he could lean any closer, he decided to be a tease and drastically pull away with a smirk. "Ah well if that's the case, I can't have my hopes up now can I?" Jaden teased, folding his arms with a wink.
Suddenly, to Calypso's shock, he pulled away and she found herself stunned a bit before shaking away her dramatically cliché thoughts and poking her tongue out at him and pushed him playfully. "You just keep thinking that, Jaden-man~" she chuckled before continuing to walk.
Jaden couldn't help but beam at her reaction. Oh yeah he so had her. He actually felt bad for pulling away, because he really wanted to move just that little bit closer. The boy wrapped his arm around Calypso's shoulders with a smirk. "I will, thank you very much~" As they walked, Jaden smiled to himself, feeling his heart race as he was with her.
The two ended up walking to the harbour just in time as the sun began to set. Jaden smiled and sat by the edge of the harbour with Calypso beside him. Jaden couldn't help but whistle at the view. "That is the best sunset I've ever seen." He grinned, slowly leaning back on his hands which were behind him.
Calypso laughed at him and let him wrap his arm around her shoulders. She went to do it back to him but being a bit of a short-ass she couldn't, so she settled with wrapping her arm around his waist tenderly. You could tell that being this close to someone was a bit foreign to her.
Soon, they arrived at the harbour where the sun was emitting an orange glow across the blue ocean. She sat beside Jaden and smiled as she dangled her legs over the edge and peered out. "It's one of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen." She pushed her hair to the side and started playing with it. It was easier than sitting on her hair and pulling it by accident.
Jaden looked over towards his friend and he smiled as he watched her play with her hair. He then noticed that parts of it were in her face, so he slowly leaned over and gently moved the hair out of her eyes with his hand. He looked down into her eyes and couldn't help but feel so lost in them.
Realising he had been looking into her eyes for a while, he quickly looked away, moving his hand back to his side. Instead, he put his hand near hers, his pinkie finger just briefly touching hers.
Calypso gazed out, stuck in her own little world before she felt the warmth of Jadens hand gently against her and she smiled a bit, letting him brush the few stray hairs out of her eyes. For a long moment, they both locked eyes and she couldn't help but notice how happy she was whenever she was around him, it was a great feeling~
Then he moved away and she leant herself back in a similar form that he did, a tinge of pink to her cheeks which could be hidden by the bright rays of the sunset. She could feel his pinkie against hers and she couldn't wipe her goofy smile off her face.
Jaden briefly looked over at Calypso and he couldn't stop himself from smiling as he saw her grin. Feeling a bit shy, he slowly moved his hand so that it was resting gently on top of hers. He felt his heart race as he moved closer to her. Calypso blinked when she felt Jaden's hand completely cover her hand and her smile went soft. This boy was nervous and to be completely honest, so was she. But to give him a small amount of comfort, she moved her thumb so it was resting on top of his.
Jaden's past was tough. It was something he couldn't explain. There were dark secrets that Calypso didn't know, but he knew that he trusted her enough to tell her in the future. She made him feel safe because she was so approachable. Jaden had never this way about anyone before, but he liked that feeling. Oh he liked it a lot.
She could barely describe the feeling that she had towards Jaden. It was something strong and powerful. And even though they barely know each other, she knew she could count on him for anything, and she'd return to him the same. She thought that her past had completely ruined her from feeling like this, considering it was only tragedy after tragedy, but she felt as though all those years were finally catching up and giving her something that she deserved.
Jaden smiled as he felt Calypso's thumb on his. He found it comforting to say the least. As he looked out into the ocean, Jaden felt at ease. The sea really was relaxing to him.
"Thank you..." Jaden whispered softly, but loud enough for Calypso to hear. "Chazz's comment caught me off guard, and I wasn't expecting such a blast from the past because of it." He looked over at her. "But you stood up for me. No one has done that before, and I'm forever grateful." He smiled gently, his brown eyes gazing down into hers once more.
She looked over at him and smiled reassuringly, stroking his thumb gently as he thanked her. "There's no need to thank me, I was just doing what anyone would have done~ I know what it's like being bullied and stuff, it's horrible and no one stuck up for me back then." she gazed out at the sea.
She turned and looked up into his eyes, her lips smiling softly at him as she felt the same melting feeling from earlier. "Besides, I know you would have done the same for me if was being treated the same way.."
Jaden nodded at her words. "Of course... I would do anything to protect you." He whispered with a gentle smile. "I'm your Jaden-man." He winked, slowly leaning over to gently stroke Calypso's cheek with his other thumb. Jaden didn't even realise he was doing it - it just felt like pure instinct for him to do it.
"If anyone tries to hurt you, I'll personally come over and kick their ass. My hair may look like a Kuriboh, but I can pack one hell of a punch." Jaden laughed gently.
She was glad the sunset was darkening because her blush was brightening with a small giggle. When she felt his hand on her cheek, it felt refreshing and cool and she leant into the motion that he was doing. She was a cat like that.
For no reasons of explanation, her hand moved up to his and held it gently as it stroked her face. "You may have a thing against your hair being a Kuriboh.." she gently let her hand go through his fringe lightly. "But personally, I think Kuribohs are pretty cute~" she winked back at him.
Jaden smiled at the compliment as he slowly moved closer to her, his voice dropping down to a whisper. "I've never thought of it that way... But if you think it's cute, then it must be." He grinned and sighed happily. He felt so at peace with Calypso at that moment. Feeling her hand against him felt so wonderful to him. He felt like it was so cheesy to hear that someone felt a spark just from one touch, but now Jaden realised it was a real thing, because he was feeling it with her.
The sunset's glow of a bright orange was darkening down to a mixture of red and purple, the sea blue reflecting a beautiful shade of violet upon the two. Yes they were different, so very much, but the energy in the air between them made the two stronger than she ever felt before. "Jaden~" she whispered lightly, her lips set in a soft smile as she scootched a little closer to him. "I'm so glad I came to Duel Academy, just to meet you.." Her eyes sparkled as the sea glistened, continuously getting lost in his eyes, further and further..
Jaden could see the beautiful scenery in the corner of his eye, but he was so focused on the girl in front of him. "Calypso, I hope you don't leave, because I have no idea what I would do without you." He admitted with a blush, but luckily the dark scenery allowed him to hide it.
He had to do it now. He knew that he had to do it, otherwise he would regret it if he didn't. After getting his nerves in check, Jaden leaned closer. He slowly closed his eyes and finally closed the distance between them, his soft lips gently pressing against hers.
She blushed again to what Jaden said, her hopes probably at the highest they've ever been in her life. She knew what was coming and she was bracing for it. When he leaned closer, she tilted her head to the side gently and closed her eyes to suddenly his lips were on hers.
It felt like there were fireworks going off in her stomach as her mind completely blanked out. She didn't realise how much she wanted it until she got it, she didn't realise how much this boy really did mean to her in such a short amount of time. His lips were so soft and gentle against hers, her hands gently at his shoulders as the sun finally went down and for night to finally glisten in all it's glory.
Jaden felt the kiss spread all sorts of joy throughout his entire body. He smiled in the kiss, slowly wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her a bit closer. He had never felt so happy in his life. He loved this feeling of being with her. Jaden didn't care that they still were getting to know each other - this just felt so right to him.
As the night stars twinkled in the night sky, Jaden could feel it getting colder, so he used this to pull Calypso closer to him to keep them both warm as they kissed.
Calypso felt every single problem that ever happened in her life slowly drift away as the kiss lingered on. All her senses suddenly felt super enhanced, the gentle way he touched her and pulled her in, the cool air softly drifting through them. Screw everyone who thought this was bad or who were going to judge them, she finally got something she wanted.
When he tugged her closer again, she was almost in his lap. The cold air had a snappy chill so she found no hesitation in gently sitting in his lap without breaking the wonderful lock between their lips. She wrapped both of her arms around his neck and smiled within. This felt so right~
Jaden wrapped his arms around her to support her as she sat on his lap. He felt so happy to have her so close to him. He was safe with her in his arms. He would do anything to protect her.
Eventually the two needed to breath, so Jaden slowly pulled away. He panted softly from the kiss as he rested his forehead gently against hers. He had no idea what to say - the kiss made him speechless.
When they slowly pulled away, Calypso felt like she was touching the very stars that were above her. Her first proper kiss.. She couldn't help but grin with a giggle at the very thought of it. Her bright eyes gazed into his as she smiled at him, her arms fixed around his neck as her forehead rested on his. They didn't need words to express what they were feeling at that moment.
Jaden's grip on her tightened as the cold wind blew. He saw her shiver and he smiled as he took his jacket off, and wrapped it over her shoulders. The boy slowly reached up and stroked Calypso's cheek gently, saying the first thing that came into mind. "Hi~" He smiled as he whispered the word softy, blushing at his randomness.
Calypso was grateful when he pulled his jacket off and gave it to her. She had no idea why the girls' uniform was sleeveless. As she felt his grip on her tighten, she couldn't help but feel safe and protected, something she hadn't felt in a very long time. She giggled at his words and grinned. "Hi~" she whispered back, her eyes dancing with amusement. "How are you?"
Jaden chuckled softly at her words and continued to stroke her cheek. "I'm feeling pretty awesome. What about you?" He asked as he pulled her closer, resting his chin gently on her neck, enjoying her presence.
"Amazing thank you very much~" she giggled lightly. Suddenly she felt his chin on her neck which, for some unknown reason, caused her to blush significantly. But she grinned and ran a hand through his surprisingly soft and smooth hair.
Jaden smiled and let out a pleasant sigh as she ran her hand through his hair. It felt so relaxing. As he gazed up into the night sky, he realised that they had to get back to their dorms before curfew.
"I wish we could stay here... But we've gotta head back.." Jaden sighed, reluctant to pull away, but he knew he had to.
She nodded lightly, only now just realising that it was getting pretty dark. She slowly stood up and stretched herself. She wasn't one to break the rules.
"Well, I had an amazing afternoon Jaden, so thank you~" she smiled lightly and helped him up. She realised she still had his jacket and took it off. "It's nice being a Slifer red for a while~" she winked.
The boy laughed quietly as he put his jacket back on. "Ah but you are way too smart for Slifer, Ms Obelisk blue~" He teased. Jaden looked to his side and saw the lights of the Slifer dorm still on. "Well I guess Syrus and Chumley are waiting for me." He took Calypso's hands in his with a gentle smile. "Are you sure you don't want me to take you back to your dorm? I just want you to be careful." He asked, concerned for her safety.
She smiled gently and poked her tongue out. "I worked hard to be in Obelisk Blue thank you very much~" she chuckled lightly before gazing lightly at the Slifer dorm. "I'll be fine on my own, don't worry. I can take care of myself." She smiled. "You need to go to your dorm. I can get away with a bit more than you can~ Anyway I got to go." She held his hands gently and gave him a small peck on the cheek. "I'll see you tomorrow~"
Jaden laughed quietly before kissing her lips softly. "Okay, okay. Goodnight~" As Calypso walked away, Jaden went back to his dorm. He did a fist pump and a little happy dance, not caring that Syrus and Chumley were laughing at him. He was too happy to care. Nothing could ruin his good mood.
As Calypso walked back on her own to her dorm, she couldn't help but giggle lightly. She had never felt, nor been this happy before and she could barely contain it. Even as she walked in, people noticed her good mood and it sort of spread throughout the dorm and suddenly all the girls were laughing from her good mood. For once, she felt herself at home.
Jaden got into his bed that night and sighed happily as the night replayed in his head. Despite sounding cheesy, it was definitely the best day of his life.
