A/N: I'm so sorry for making you all wait so long! I meant to do this awhile back, but cuz of circumstances beyond my control, I was unable to until now. Please understand. . Enjoy! Also Jaden may or may not be considered OOC in this chapter as his now more dominant White self attacks another White dorm member for reasons you'll learn later in the chapter. That was supposed to come last chapter, but I held it off until now for my own reasons. My collaborator and I own the OC White student that Jaden strikes in this chapter, so please do not use him without our consent. Thanks in advance! This chapter features an error. The part where Jaden referred to Alexis as 'Lexi' was an unseen typo, therefore in the revised version of the chapter Jaden only calls her Lex. Therefore in all future chapters, Jaden will just call her 'Lex' if he doesn't use her full first name.
Last Time
Jaden nodded in full understanding. "Got it. Don't you worry, Saiou. I'll make sure we cast this world of all darkness and win this tournament!" Jaden shouted with a tone full of pride as he was ready to hang up from his chat with Saiou.
Saiou saw this and spoke up to his young and eager charge. "Wait…Jaden, I wish for you to meet up with Alexis and go out together. With the two best duelists out there working together you are sure to win the GX tournament." He spoke with a calm but firm authority.
Jaden blushed at the thought of teaming up with Alexis. It had been an honor to fight against her, but with her was an entirely new experience…
"That is all…" Saiou said as they both hung up.
Jaden then stepped out of his room, ready to find Alexis and face the future together…
End Flashback
Slowly he began walking down the hallway, searching for Alexis' room.
It took a few moments then it dawned on him that he had no idea where precisely Alexis' room was.
Once this fact dawned on him, he quietly face-palmed.
For the love of Ra, did he feel stupid.
Luckily for Jaden, a White student passed by at that moment almost as if he had read the former Slifer's mind nonetheless.
"Hey!" Jaden called out to the White student with short ebony black hair and tough green eyes, a first-year Obelisk student named Jeffery Marshall whom Jaden hadn't met. Much like Chazz, he believed his skills to be the best at the academy but in reality his skills were on Syrus' level.
The White male student turned to Jaden. "Hello." He answered almost casually.
"Umm say you wouldn't happen to know where Alexis's room is would you?" Jaden asked, his cheeks flushing nervously.
"And why should I tell you?" The student asked laughing.
Alexis was fairly popular around the White Dorms and she caught the eye of many guys.
Jaden growled at the boy's mocking laughter. 'Forget being nice.' Jaden growled mentally, his protective feelings for Alexis taking over.
Jaden brought his fist forward knocking the boy down with a punch to the side of his face, making the White student fall to the floor crying out in pain, as he was now backed against the wall. "That's why! NOW…" He growled as the ebony-haired White student shook in fear of him as Jaden's voice rose but then dropped as he spoke up again. "Where is her room?!" He snarled.
His opponent shivered in fear. "Uhh, it's 211…" The frightened white-clad boy stuttered as he pressed his back against the wall in terror.
Just to let out some more anger, Jaden kicked the fallen White duelist in the chest, hard causing the fallen one to let out a scream. "There now, that wasn't so hard was it?" He teased cruelly as he walked down the hall. 'Note to self, never let that guy near Alexis.' Jaden thought protectively.
After a few moments more of walking, he arrived in front of her door knocking on it lightly a few times. "Hey Lex you in here, it's me Jaden." He called.
He however would receive no answer as Alexis was still peacefully sound asleep…
He slowly turned the door handle, opening the door. He tentatively entered her room and slowly closed the door behind him.
Gazing just ahead, he saw her lying on her bed, in a peaceful sleep. He extremely carefully and quietly approached Alexis and slowly removed his duel disk from his arm.
Kneeling at her bedside, he smiled gazing down upon the beautiful woman before him.
She laid there, a content smile on her face. She truly was an angel, a beautiful icy angel.
He couldn't dare to disturb her, nor did he wish to. It almost seemed like a crime to disturb her while she was sleeping.
But at that moment, his emotions and flaring feelings for her took over. Slowly his left hand came down and began lovingly stroking her cheek, smiling as he did so.
"Wakey wakey, Lex." He teased softly, smiling playfully as a light blush started running across his face.
"Mmm…" She murmured opening her eyes. "Jay…what are ya doin' here?" She asked sweetly.
"Oh, nothing much. I just came by to see you Lex. I thought that maybe you and I could go out and do some dueling together and win some medals for the Society." He answered, smiling softly.
"Sure, I'd love to Jay. I love whenever I'm with you." She replied with a giggle, though she too began blushing.
He blushed once more, the old nervousness in him quickly coming back. He quickly redrew his hand back to his side as he smiled once again at the beautiful Ice Queen that laid before him.
"Sorry for waking you up Lex, if you want I can wait outside your room while you get changed?" He offered shyly.
"Sure." She answered happily as she got out of her bed.
He turned away from her, his seemingly now trademark evil grin on his face as he stepped out the door closing it behind him before leaning on the white wall next to the door.
Alexis giggled softly to herself as she got changed into her Society outfit. 'My life couldn't be more perfect…' She thought gleefully, while her thoughts drifted to the day ahead of her and Jaden…
To be continued…
