As much as I hate to bring this to an end, all good things must, sooner or later. By the way, when I first wrote this, Jasmine intentionally decided to kiss Missy after one spin, but I decided to rewrite it to make it look more like a happy accident. Enjoy! I know I will!

Chapter 9 – Last Turn

The wind seemed to pick up outside again, but even with the harsh winds outside, nothing could compare with the exuding pressure inside the Duelists' Room. And of course, all the boys had sprained their necks to look in Jasmine's direction, after hearing what she just said. None were more surprised than Hassleberry, Syrus, and of course, Missy herself.

"Wh…what did you…?!" Missy's normally wild hair seemed to be getting a chill.

"You heard what I said," Jasmine said, grinning sheepishly. "It can't be helped."

"Whoa…two girls?" Syrus couldn't help but say those three words first, getting him a number of stares/glares from the girls. He quickly put his hands to his mouth. After kissing three separate girls in one night, he was sure his natural innocence was in jeopardy, but watching two girls making out?!

Hassleberry tried very hard to contain his excitement. Yes, kissing Chazz had rattled him before (no duh), but this would be too much for his dino-sized brain (about the size of a walnut).

The only one who wasn't thrilled about this was Missy, who immediately stood up and grabbed Jasmine by the collar. "What are you trying to pull, Makita? You're making it sound like you planned this."

"I had nothing to do with this. Trust me," Jasmine said, lowering her voice to a whisper. "And don't worry about it. Think of our popularity if the boys watch us kiss!"

Missy's eyes widened and she put a finger to her lips. Sure, she enjoyed the attention she already received from numerous boys in Obelisk Blue, but with Ra and Slifer students watching her do something like this, she was sure to be the most popular girl in the entire school! Of course, Dr. Crowler and Ms. Fontaine would reprimand her severely for something like this, but who said popularity was free?

"Are you two gonna kiss or not?!"

This came from Chazz, who pretty much scared the living crap out of everyone by pressing his blue snow-covered face against the window.

"You're still out there?!" Jaden asked in disbelief.

"Well, duh!" Chazz said, rudely. "I've been two different kinds of 'out cold' for the past half hour, thanks to those Ras! NOW LET ME IN! I'M FREEZING!"

A minute later, Chazz was back in his spot between Blair and Bastion with a big fluffy quilt wrapped around him and a hot compress on his head. His black coat was hung by the door to dry. He looked absolutely miserable as he shivered like a wet puppy.

"So why didn't you just go back into the Slifer Red dorm?" Jaden asked. "We do have that new heater, after all."

"Oh, l-l-let's see." Chazz put a hand to his chin and faked thinking. "G-G-Go into the Slifer R-R-Red dorm w-w-where there's a f-f-family of c-cockroaches w-waiting for me…ah…AH-CHOO! (Chazz stopped to wipe his nose) Or head b-b-back to Chez Ch-Chazz were it's c-c-cozy, w-warm, and I can c-c-clearly s-see two hot babes m-making out?"

Silence.

"He has a point," Syrus said.

"For once, I agree with Chazz," Bastion said, surprisingeveryone. "…What?"

Jasmine cleared her throat, immediately drawing back the attention of every boy in the room, and two girls (whose names would not be mentioned for their protection). Missy glanced down for a second before looking back at Jasmine.

"Don't forget…" Blair began to sing out, but immediately got an icy glare from both Missy and Jasmine, forcing her to remain quiet.

"Well," Missy said, closing her eyes, "let's get this over with."

Jasmine nodded and also closed her eyes. She leaned in and pressed her lips to Missy's while moving a hand to her cheek. The boys, of course, were all glassy eyed at the sight that unfolded before them. It was like a dream come true as they watched the two girls making out passionately (and for a certain spiky haired loser, just the warm up he needed). However, the passion was broken when Missy's eyes shot open and she quickly pushed Jasmine away. Mindy's eyes widened when she noticed Jasmine's tongue withdraw quickly into her mouth.

"Did…you…just…?!" Missy couldn't even finish.

"What? Did I do something wrong?" Jasmine asked.

Missy pointed a shaking finger at Jasmine. One could tell by the look on her face that she was so shocked, she couldn't even speak. And the same could be said for Syrus, who noticed Jasmine's tongue for a split second, which was apparently enough time to make his jaw drop.

"Ooookay, then. So is the game over?" Jasmine asked. Blair was still shocked at what just happened and it took a while before what Jasmine said registered into her brain.

"Oh. Uh…yes. The rest of the party time is all yours…" She reached under her chair and pulled out her flashlight, which she shone under her face again. "Thank you for playing this dangerous game…"

"It wasn't so dangerous!" Everyone sprained their necks again as they turned to Syrus. Of course he'd say that because he, out of everyone else, got kissed the most (lucky shrimp). It was this comment that also caused Hassleberry to fold his arms and mutter "Speak for yourself" under his breath.

And on top of that, Chazz sneezed again. "Great. N-Now I have a c-c-cold."

"Sy's right!" Jaden said, happily. "We have got to play this game again sometime!" Jaden laughed a bit, but stopped as soon as he met Alexis' gaze. The expressions on their faces were entirely unreadable. Even so, the mutterings of agreement from the crowd (except for Wesley, who was once again staring into space) seemed to put Blair's mind at ease.

"All right," Blair said, finally. "As I said before, the rest of the night is all yours!"

The party resumed as scheduled. This time, in the center of the room, another duel took place between Bastion Misawa and Wesley Reddings. The two of them seemed to be evenly matched. Syrus was watching from the couch and Missy was sitting right on the other side, with little interest in this duel, mainly because she was a little tired. But with every card that was played, ("I play the Spell card, Bonding H2O!") Syrus didn't notice that Missy was inching closer and closer to him. ("I activate my Magic Jammer," Wesley said, raising one of his cards, "in order to dry up your H2O card.")

"Just keep dueling, Bastion!" Syrus shouted. It was after this comment, that he saw a long, skinny arm drape around his shoulder. He slowly looked to his left and noticed Missy sitting veeeery close to him. For some reason, she looked as though she could barely keep her eyes open.

"Uh…" Syrus blinked. "M-Missy?"

"So…late…So…sleepy…" Her eyes closed a little more as she held Syrus closer to her, like a big teddy bear. Syrus was blushing like crazy as she held him to her chest. She seemed to be completely unaware of what she was doing unconsciously (but she would know tomorrow morning. Oh yes). Sara was watching the spectacle a few feet from behind the couch and stepped outside for a little bit. A trickle of blood had escaped her nose, dotting the snow red. Judging by her manic grin, she must've been holding it back the entire game. And of course, Jaden couldn't help but snicker at the predicament Syrus was in. He didn't notice, however, until a few minutes into Bastion and Wesley's duel that Alexis was standing right next to him.

"Jaden?"

"Yeah, Lex?"

"Um…actually…" As soon as she met Jaden's gaze, she immediately averted her gaze from him, hiding a hard blush. "Actually, it's nothing!"

Jaden raised an eyebrow. "…What does that mean?"

"Actually, it means nothing!" Alexis repeated, laughing sheepishly this time, leaving Jaden confused as always. Blair was still in her chair, watching the two. She chewed on her thumbnail as Alexis suddenly grasped Jaden's hand. The two of them (Jaden and Alexis) blushed even more as they looked at each other.

And of course, poor Chazz was back in the Slifer dorm, shuddering and shivering from his cold as he got up close to the heater. But even the heat wouldn't stop him from sneezing again. In his mind, as well as Blair's, they both thought the same thing.

"This is not over, Jaden/s-s-slacker."

Well…pretty much the same thing.


Sorry Blair. Maybe next time...

So ends one of my favorite fics ever. I just realized something important: I still haven't thanked SKSuncloud for inspiring me to make this fic. She's got a Spin the Bottle fic for the Naruto characters. So, SKS-C, if you ever decide to read this, thanks!
