Chapter nine A haunting past and new beginnings
I sat on the fence petting Dragon, he offered a little comfort, it's hard to lose some one you love. It's hard to admit that you'll never see them again. But I was trying to, trying to accept the fact that I'd never see my mother again, I felt tears sting my eyes. I hadn't stopped crying for long in the last few days. I heard the car pull into the drive way, Katie came into the back yard to find me.
"Hi" she said softly
"Hi" I said, my voice was horse and shaky "How can you ignore it?"
"With great difficulty" said Katie sitting down on the fence with me
I didn't laugh "Be serious" I said
She shrugged "To be honest, I don't really know, I find something to distract me, but it doesn't work when you're alone" she said
"What do you do when you're alone?" I asked
"Cry" she said it simply, plainly.
"I want it to stop hurting" I said looking down at my shoes
"That's natural" she said stroking her horse's neck
"Katie" She looked over at me to say she was listing "Did you know my dad?"
"Not well" she said "I was young when he left"
"What can you tell me about him?"
That he always scared me when I was little, he reminded me of my dad" she added her voice trailing off
"What do you mean?"
It was obvious that she was searching for the right words "You know how you can sort of sense a person's intentions?"
"Yes"
"Well, your dad reminded me of my dad"
"So in other words it's a good thing he left?"
"I think so"
Joey
"I play, FLAMEING SWORDS MAN!!! In attack mode" I added, no way Geff could beat that
Geff raised an eye brow, we had dulled about six time, he had won every time, but I was determined to win "You act like you just won" said Geff taking a card out of his hand "I play..." he was drawing it out on purpose "the same combo I've beaten you with every time" he finished, I groaned as he laid star boy and roaring ocean snake down, taking the rest of my life points
"One more duel, I know I can beat you!!!" I pleaded
"Joey, we've dueled eight times, I've won every time using the same combo, you're just to easy" he said
I glared, "Take that back" I knew I was growling, like a little angry puppy, as Kaiba would say
Geff raised his eye brow again "Jo, I speak the truth" he said pocketing his deck, I growled a bit louder, then I talked him, maybe not the smartest thing to do, but it made me feel better
"Joey what the fuck are you doing?!?!" asked Geff kicking me off him
"I can beat you" I snarled
"Joey, calm down" said Serenity's voice
Suddenly coming back to my sense I turned a little red "Ummm, sorry" I said reaching down and helping Geff up
He laughed "So k" he said accepting my help, one of the things that I like about Geff is he can forgive and forget. For some un-known reason I broke out laughing, soon Geff was laughing too, then Yugi joined in, then Tristen, then Bakura, the girls just stood there looking at us wired
"Guys what are you laughing at?" asked Tea
"I-I don't know" said Geff trying to get up, he had fallen over because he was laughing so hard "But it sure as hell is funny" he added falling back to the ground laughing just as hard as before, soon Serenity started to giggle
"Not you too!" said Mai as Serenity broke out laughing
"Told ya" said Geff in-between laughing, after about fifteen minutes we had all stopped laughing
"Well that was fun" said Yugi smiling
The rest of us nodded in agreement "I think it was stupid" said Mai. I smiled wickedly "Joseph, what are you doing?" I grabbed her around the waist and began tickling her "S-s-stop i-it Jos-seph!" she screamed
"Na" I said continuing tickling her
"Joey!!!" she shrieked, Yugi's grandpa came into the room to see why Mai was screaming, he saw, and left, he had learned that it was the beast course of action already "STOP IT!!" she yelled, I decided to give her a breather, smiling demonically I stepped back "Joseph Wheeler, when I get my hands on you..." before she could finish her sentence I ran out the door and down the hall
"TRY AND CATCH ME!!" I screamed running down the hall like a kid
"I'LL KILL YOU!!!" She screamed chasing after me
I tripped and fell on my back, she had tripped over me, so our current position was me on my back, her on top of me, I smiled, and kissed her, she broke the kiss "Why is it that I can't stay mad at you?" she asked cuddling into me
"Cause I'm just too loveable!" I said smiling
Serenity
Joey and Mai were kissing again, makes you feel lonely when you see happy couples. I envy Mai some times, how she has some one who cares about her so much. Yugi was beside me, like every one else watching the couple, I knew that he had a crush on me, but I was the only one who knew, every one else thought he liked Tea. My brother looked up and saw us watching, "Uhh, hi?" he looked at us all
Geff shook his head "Get a room" he said walking away, well into the next room.
Mai turned a bright red, she didn't know Geff, I didn't either for that matter, but that's beside the point. It's funny to see someone turn shades of red you didn't even know existed. "Ummmm" she looked at us all, got off of Joey and brushed her self off, suddenly Tea broke out laughing. "Not this again" moaned Mai.
We were all laughing our asses off within ten seconds, even Mai. The phone rang and Yugi answered "Hello, one sec, for you" he said holding the phone out to Joey
"Hi" said Joey "Kay, I hear you, we'll be home soon" he said and hung up "Come on sis, we gotta go home. Bye every one" he gave Mai a kiss and left, me trailing him
"What did dad want" I panted, Joey was almost running, which wasn't a good thing
"Don't know, sounded mad" he added, his voice was serious. I nodded and sped up a little to keep up with him, after about ten minutes we came in sight of our hose, I was relived, Joey was a fast runner.
Dad was waiting for us, he didn't look happy, "Joseph Wheeler, you are in serious trouble" he said, his voice sounding angry, Joey cringed from the use of his full name
"I didn't do anything" he said
"Serenity, go inside" my Dad instructed, what ever was about to happen he didn't want me to see, I ran up to my room and opened my window, I could hear them both
"Joey, I got a call from your teacher" he said 'So that's why he's in trouble' "Do you know why your teacher called?" he asked Joey shook his head, I could barley tell though. "She said you haven't handed in a single bit of home work" he said, Joey was nervous, I didn't blame him "Joseph, why haven't you been handing in your homework?" again with the full name.
"W-well, you see-"
"You don't have a reason, do you?" he asked
Joey looked down in defeat "No, I don't" he said Dad nodded
"Your grounded until your next report-card, or your teacher tells me that you've started to hand in your work, if I get another call, you know what happens" he said walking in, Joey followed, his head hung down in defeat.
Kaiba
I was working, still, again, like always. Typing, non-stop, my eyes were watery from staring at the monitor for so long. I heard the door creep open. "Big brother?" I turned around to see Mokuba standing there in his P.J's
"What are you doing up?" I asked
"Couldn't sleep" he said walking in my office and sitting down
"Why?" I asked. Mokuba looked down at his feet "Did they threaten to come after you in the middle of the night?" I asked, he nodded, "Mokuba, with all the security we have, they'd be charred to a crisp before they reached your room" I reassured him
He shook his head "It's not just that" he said, his head still lowered "It's your Yami" he knew about him, but I hadn't told him that he was awake //Why's he afraid of me?// /I don't know, maybe because you beat me and pushed my adopted Father out a window?/ //You wished he was dead, how was I supposed to know you didn't mean it literally?// /YOU LIVE IN MY HEAD!!! How couldn't you???// //...//
"Why are you afraid of my Yami?" I asked, he would never hurt Mokuba, not and live.
"He's back, I saw you talking to him earlier" //Busted// /SHUT UP!!/ //Fine//
"He won't hurt you" I said
"I know, but he might hurt you" //...// /Will you?/ //Only if you wish you were stronger again// I sighed mentally and physically
"He says he won't" I assured him, I was tough enough
"Promise?" /Promise?/ I asked him mockingly //As long as you shut up soon// he said angrily
"He promises" I said
Mokuba nodded in satisfaction, "Kay, now go to bed" he ordered me
I laughed "Do I have to?" I pretended to whine
"Yes" said Mokuba with fake seriousness
I pretended to sigh "Fine" I saved what I had been working on and stood up, Mokuba stood up with me, most people don't see this side of me, I have my own reasons, my Yami being only one of them
Stupid writers block!!!! In my opinion this chapter sucks, well review and tell me what you think, flame if you want, just be genital, all flames will help roast a rabid squirrel, and if you don't review then I'll sick my rabid zombie squirrel on you!!! *pouts* pleaseplease reviwe
