30 Kisses
Kiss #13
"Mai where are we going?" questioned a slightly worried looking Joey Wheeler. Himself and Mai were in the car on the way back from what Joey thought, had been a very successful school dance.
"C'mon! Just tell me!" Joey whined again, giving Mai the puppy dog eyes.
Mai just smirked and rolled her own eyes and looking thoroughly amused said to Joey, "Well you'll just have to see won't you?" She laughed and draped her arm over the wind sill of the car. The window was open and even though it was around 11 o'clock at night it was still rather hot and the open window made for a nice breeze.
The couple sat in silence for a while as Mai drove her car down a very windy road.
Mai knew the silence wouldn't last and sure enough….
"Are we there yet!?" Joey basically yelled.
"Settle down hun!" Mai removed a hand from the steering wheel and pinched Joey's cheek slightly to quite him down. "Tell ya what, how about we play a game?"
"A game? I guess so. What sort of game? Like eye-spy or somethin'?"
Mai laughed and shock her head, "Eye-spy? Joey, are we still little kids? No, I want to get to know you more. The only thing I really know about you is how much you love duelling. So this little game is called 21 questions!
"Eh?" A bewildered Joey asked scratching his head, "how do ya play?"
"Well we ask each other questions and you HAVE to answer it no matter what," Mai noticed that Joey still looked uneasy and added, "don't worry, it's easy! Here I'll start – what's your favourite colour and why?"
"Favourite colour? Hmmm I'd probably have to say… BLUE!"
"And why is that Joey?" Mai asked a slight smile playing on her lips.
"I dunno. I guess that it's because it reminds me of the ocean. I love the ocean, it like makes me think about how things can be so calm and peaceful one minute and wild and angry the next minute. It's kinda like life."
His answer shocked Mai, it was a lot more of an answer than she expected, but she liked the answer she got.
"So now you ask me a question," Mai told Joey.
"Okay. Now since I ain't so creative I'm just going to ask ya the same question – what's your favourite colour and why?"
"Seriously Joey? Have you not realised what colour I wear ALL the time??"
"Alright, alright, so your favourite colour is purple, why is it?"
"It's actually violet! Jeez Joey get your colour spectrum right!" she laughed and pretended to hit him on the head. "Na, I love it because when I was little my dad gave me a teddy bear that was violet. It wasn't the prettiest teddy or anything but I loved it because it was something my father had given me out of love, instead of trying to prove how rich we were."
Joey smiled at this; he never heard Mai talk about her parents much. Maybe this game wasn't such a bad idea after all…
The car made it's way along the road and the two inside happily shared answers to some lighthearted and some serious questions. As Joey thought for a good question he glanced out the window and saw they were travelling down a very familiar street. "Mai!" Joey yelled, "why are we driving down my street?! Were we even going to go anywhere?"
Mai couldn't help but laugh at Joey and replied, "of course not silly! But you can't tell me you didn't have fun? Besides we haven't finished our game yet!"
"Grrr! Got some nerve to trick me like that woman," Joey mumbled as Mai's convertible pulled up onto the park by Joey's house.
"Hun, you know you can't stay mad at me! Now go on and ask me a question."
Joey sat in silence.
"Awww Joey! C'mon, one more to go. Don't leave me hanging!" Mai pouted and Joey turned in his seat to face her.
"Question number 21," he started, "if I kissed you, would you kiss me back?"
"Yes," Mai answered without hesitation.
Joey leaned forward and pressed his lips onto hers. Soon enough, the windows started to fog up.
Who knew playing a game where you had to answer questions could be so fun?
A/N: There it is. I have to say it's alright for 1 in the morning work! I'm sorry but I won't be posting another kiss for a couple of weeks – exams and such yadayada, you see I'm dead if I don't pass! So keep the feedback – good or bad rolling in. I heart you all!
