30 Kisses

Kiss #10

One complete year has passed since the whole Dartz fiasco and the gang was getting on with their life. Surprisingly, the word had not needed saving once since the last time Yu-Gi saved it. Yes everything was smooth sailing and the biggest problems they each faced were getting that History essay in on time – a HUGE struggle for some of them coughJOEY&TRISTANcough.

Tristan had gained Joey's permission and blessings and finally asked Serenity out. Although they were not officially deemed a couple Yu-Gi and Tea were getting very close and were spending an exceedingly increasing amount of time with each other.

It seemed everyone was getting involved on the romantic front but Joey. Sure he had gone out with a few girls from his class but it was nothing serious. After all there was only one girl he would truly want and it seemed she would never return into his life.

Joey sighed as he strolled the streets of Domino to make his way to their place. It wasn't like it was called "Joey & Mai's Place" or anything but it would always seem that way to him. He remembered that night, the night of their first kiss. He had run away from his dad and there she was, like a haven in his hell. She sympathised with him and promised him things would get better. He remembered stroking her silky hair and the feeling of her lips on his.

He turned the corner and opened the rusted gate of the entrance to the park and crossed over to the swings. Joey walked over to his special swing and discovered there was someone huddled up by the tree next to it, their shoulders jerking up and down as if they were crying.

"Hey Miss are you alright?" questioned Joey whilst placing his hand on her shoulder. The girl turned around and her eyes widened in shock as she identified who it was. She pushed his hand away and started to try and get up.

"Mai?" said Joey, "don't go… I want to talk to you."

"I don't deserve to talk to you Joey. I'll just end up hurting you again," Mai sobbed back.

"What are you talking about? Come back here!" yelled Joey as he grabbed Mai's arm trying to pull her back. Mai gave up and collapsed into his arms, sobbing into his chest.

"I'm…sorry…" came the muffled sound of Mai's voice. "It was all my fault. You lost your soul because of me!" Mai was howling now, pounding her fists against Joey's chest.

Joey gripped her hands and forced her to look into his eyes. "I have my soul back Mai, it wasn't your fault. Even the Pharaoh was swayed by Dartz."

Mai couldn't believe that Joey didn't hate her. But she looked into his eyes she could tell he genuinely meant it. Joey's eyes always portrayed exactly what he was thinking.

"I've missed you so much. I just wanted to see you," Joey said and Mai knew he actually loved her. She couldn't believe he wanted to see her again let alone fall in love with her. But hey, Mai wasn't complaining!

"I missed you to," she replied, chocking back tears.

He pulled her towards him and they kissed. It was magical, full of longing – and she knew both of them had wanted this for a while.

They stood for a while in a loving embrace, just enjoying the feeling of being in each other's arms. Mai glanced over her shoulder and couldn't help but remember their last meeting here – their first kiss.

A/N: O.K I'll remeber my promise 1 update per week noods head yes. Right and dedications as well. Hope you enjoy!
