Chapter 7

Previously

Science

Serenity sat in her usual chair fo science when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned to see a girl with a skimpy outfit. Obviously she was a popular girl and Serenity noticed that.

"What do you want?" she asked politely.

"Why did you ride with Seto?" she asked.

"Oh! Me and my friends slept over there in the mansion and since there was no space in the limo left for me, we rode on his motorcycle." she said innocently.

The fan girl snorted. This class was especially filled with fan girls and on every counter there was one. In the science room, there were counters and on each counter, there were two seats. Unfortunately, Kaiba was in this class too. When Kaiba entered, he saw the fan girls on every counter except for Serenity's. I'd rather sit with Wheelerete than hear those girls rant on he thought. So he went on to sit with Serenity. If Serenity or Kaiba had turned around, they would've seen a VERY fuming group of fan girls.


It was towards the end of science and it felt that all the girls were about ready to pounce on Serenity and strangle her to death. Serenity was nervous since she knew that those fan girls were jealous of her and were wanting to kill her. Kaiba smirked at this. He made an accomplishment without even trying. He made Wheelerete twitch in front of him and he didn't have to sit near a fan girl and hear their ranting too.

Serenity found out that she had three classes with Kaiba and didn't appreciate it because she wanted to stay away from her "crush" as much as possible so she won't develop any further feelings and so that she wouldn't tick off Joey. She felt that Kaiba was purposely sitting near her so that she would develop further feelings for him and he could break her heart and tick off Joey. Kaiba felt that Serenity was purposely sitting near him because of her crush and just wanted to annoy him. Yugi would've said it was destiny. I say their just stupid.

The week passed by slowly and it came to Sunday again. Serenity was in the ballet class stretching and waiting for the rest of the class to come. When she turned around, she almost bumped into Kaiba but stopped herself before she did. Her hair was tied into a neat bun and she was wearing pink stockings and a gymnastics suit as well as a pink tutu. Kaiba wore his usual white trench coat and black shirt and pants. The only thing that was different was that he took off his buckles on his arms. Kaiba slowly lowered his head to face Serenity, smirked at her then left with out saying anything. Serenity just stood there and then went back to stretching.

During class, the teacher announced that they would perform at Domino High two weeks later and that you could either do singing or dancing. If you pick dancing, you're automatically in but if you pick singing, you have to audition and only one person can make it and the rest go to dancing. She said that this class was overcrowded and the last person to hand in their form will be a substitute for if someone is absent. Kaiba decided that he would turn it in last and signed it ahead of time and put it in his briefcase.

Kaiba got out of his limousine and went into his mansion. He took out his permission form and some other junk and threw it onto the table saying that it was unneeded weight. He strode off and didn't notice that Mokuba was looking through his junk.

Monday at the Ballet Class.

"Um...Miss.. Crawson?" asked Mokuba.

"Yes? Who is it?" said the teacher who came out of another door near the mirrors.

"Uh...I'm Mokuba Kaiba. My brother Seto told me to give his permission form to you since he couldn't him self." he said. He was a very good liar, one thing he picked up from his brother.

"Oh! So he's trying out for the singing auditions?" she asked(refer to chapter 1 for how good he is at singing.)

"Yes. He is." Mokuba said.

Like he's going to make it. I bet he sings so bad. Listen to him talk. It's so hoarse. How can he have a singing voice? Thought the teacher.

Mokuba apparently understood what she was thinking and told her the real answer.

"My brother has a wonderful voice and he's going to make it. I'm sure." Mokuba assured.

"Whatever you say." she replied with a sigh.

Next Sunday

The teacher was reading off the names for the singing position.

"Ok..Here's the list for the people who are auditioning for the singing role. Um.. Serenity Wheeler, Kelley Fast, Jasmine Jayz, Melissa Lee, Seto Kaiba, and.." the teacher said

"WHAT?" Kaiba interrupted.

"What about?" the teacher asked.

"Why am I signed up for the singing auditions?" he asked, his anger boiling.

"Your brother gave me your permission form on Monday and said you have a lovely voice." she said.

All the fangirls swooned.

"You do Seto? Could you sing for us?" they kept on asking.

Kaiba groaned..."Mokuba ..I am SO going to get you!" he muttered.

"Alright and Raven Crow will be auditioning for the singing role."the teacher finished. "Listen. There's been a change of plan. There are going to be two soloists. There are three songs and two will be sung individually and the other will be sung together. For those individual ones, there are dances that go with it and for the partner one, it's just for entertainment because the audience find singing more entertaining." the teacher explained.

"Alright." everyone BUT Kaiba agreed.

Later That day

Kaiba stood there on the stage looking at the lyrics and listening to the song that he was supposed to sing. He was to go first and was disappointed. He wasn't scared or nervous but he didn't know how bad he should sing because he didn'tknow how the others girls sang. The song ended.

Kaiba's POV

Remember Seto. Don't sound good. Make sure you sound horrible.

He started to sing and sang melodiously just like he had sung to Mokuba.

Damn. Why do I have to sound so hoarse when I speak and so..so... good when I sing? Curse my singing voice. Well, I got to admit, I do sound really good. No wonder I have so many fans, girls AND boys. He shuddered at the thoughts of boys "liking" him. As in fangirls liking.

Normal POV

Kaiba started to sing.

All my life

There was just me and my dreams

And the days went tickin' by

Like the beat of my heart

Spend my nights

Wonderin' how it would feel

When the waiting would end

And tomorrow would start

Suddenly I see the light

Out of the darkness

I'm comin' alive

So this is how it feels

Reachin' for heaven

This is how it feels

Kissin' the sky

This is what it means

Touching forever

Like a phoenix rising from the flames

I'm reachin' for heaven

All this time I never knew I was so strong

But you made me find the fire

That was there all along

In your eyes

I can see all I can be

Suddenly I want it all

And I know you'll catch me if ever I fall

So this is how it feels

Reachin' for heaven

And this is how it feels

Kissin' the sky

This is what it means

Touching forever

Like a phoenix rising from the flames

I'm reachin' for heaven

You alone have shown me

Shining new hope rises now for all

I owe you It's my turn to show you

This is how it feels

Reachin' for heaven

And this is how it feels

Kissin' the sky

This is what it means

Touching forever

Like a phoenix rising from the flames

I'm reachin' for heaven

Reachin' for heaven

This is how it feels

Kissin' the sky

This is what it means

Touching forever

Like a phoenix rising from the flames

I'm reachin' for heaven

Reachin' for heaven...Heaven

Kaiba finished. He opened his eyes and looked straight at the teachers surprised face. He stared blankly at her open mouth and wondered why she was paralyzed. He didn't sing that good did he? All the girls squealed in amazement except for Serenity. The teacher started slowly clapping and crying.

"I've never seen any boy sing that beautifully. Your very talented. I guess it's true that your good at everything from what I heard,(from fan girls) I didn't believe it at first. But..now I believe it's true." she cheered.

"I have to admit. I. Am. Good." He said smirking.

Serenity was up next. She glared at Kaiba and decided she would try her best to see if she could make the part too.

Kaiba's POV

The Wheelerete's next. I bet she sounds like a puppy. I bet she wants the part so she can sing with me.

Normal POV

Serenity's song finished and she started singing. Kaiba stopped in mid step. He was about to leave when he heard a beautiful voice. He turned around and saw Serenity singing. I'll stay and hear Wheelerete sing. He thought.

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to sayYou better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come Whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

La, la, la, la
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la
We will still be friends forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

Serenity ended and looked up with a soft blush on he cheeks.

"Good job Serenity." said the teacher awestricken again. "Your certainly a match for Mr. Kaiba." she said.

Serenity smirked at Kaiba and Kaiba growled. After twenty minutes of horrible singers, they finally came to the end of the list.

"I announce the soloists for the performance. Serenity Wheeler and Seto Kaiba! You will meet every evening to practice atleast twice and you will be doing these songs...
