Ok this is going to be the third to last chapter and it's REALLY long. It
sounds a little bit like The Matrix (no I don't own that either) but the
funny thing is that I got this idea from a friend's story on how her other
friend got proposed too. No there are no proposals in this story, but I
thought it would be really cute! Ok on with the story!!!
Mai didn't wake up until around 11 o'clock in the morning. She yawned and looked at her clock. 'Hmm, I usually wake up earlier on Saturday's,' she thought, 'I wonder why mom didn't wake me up.'
She took a quick shower, got dressed, and walked down stairs. She got herself a bowl of cereal and sat down at the kitchen table. 'I wonder where mom is.' Then she saw the note.
Mai picked it up and read it. It said:
Dear Mai,
Went to the grocery store. Be back in an hour or so.
Love mom
PS- One of your friends called. Said she would call back later. Bye!
"Oh great," Mai said to no one in particular, "Leave it to mom to leave out the name of the person who called."
'I wonder who it was," she thought.
Then she heard the mailman drive by so she went outside and got the mail.
"Bill, bill, junk, bill, junk, hey this one's for me." She pulled out a plain white envelope, which was addressed to her, and it had no return address.
Mai sat down in her living room and opened the letter. It said:
Hey Mai,
Want to go to the mall today?
Love secretadmirer#1
"No way!" Mai shouted. It was the same guy from yesterday! She looked at the envelope and discovered that this letter had been sent two days ago.
"This is strange," Mai said.
Just then, the phone rang. Mai picked it up. "Hello?"
"Hi Mai! It's me Tea!"
"Hi Tea! Hey, did you call earlier?"
"Yeah I did. I need some help."
"Ok, what with?"
"I'm totally at a loss for finding a dress for the dance tonight. Do you think you could come to the mall with me and Serenity today?"
Finding this weird beyond belief, Mai just sat there in silence.
Tea took this as her thinking about it. "Well we figured that since you know what you are doing when it comes to clothes that you would be able to help."
"Sure," Mai said after a while, "Why not. I've got nothing else to do today. I would love to help you two."
"Great! We're going via cab, so we will come pick you up in 15 minutes, ok?"
"Ok, bye!"
"Bye!"
Stunned and totally surprised, Mai sat where she was until she heard the cab drive up and stop in front of her house. Then there came a knock on her door and she walked over to answer it.
A very happy looking Tea and Serenity stood in front of her. "Come on!" Tea said.
"We have a lot to do and only a little time to do it in!" Serenity said.
"Ok, Ok, I'm coming," Mai said as she grabbed her purse and was out the door.
When the three girls arrived at the mall, they instantly walked into a store and headed for the dress section. Tea and Serenity tried on several dresses and Mai gave them her critiques. Tea finally ended up picking a dark blue, sleeveless dress that went down to her ankles and Serenity picked a black, spaghetti strap dress that went down to her knees. But when they went to go pay for their dresses something strange happened.
"Is your name Mai Valentine?" the cashier asked her as Tea and Serenity paid for their dresses.
"Yes, why?"
"This is for you." And she pulled out a beautiful dress. It was dark purple with spaghetti straps.
"Try it on!" the other two girls shouted with excitement.
"Ok," Mai agreed reluctantly. She took the dress into the dressing room and...it fit perfectly! It went down to her ankles with a slit in the side that went up to her knee. When she walked out of the dressing room, the other two girls loved it!
She changed back into her normal clothes then went to give it back.
"Oh no, it's for you!" the cashier said, "Someone bought it for you yesterday and said you would be here to pick it up today."
Mai was shocked for the second (or third?) time that day. But the other two girls didn't seem as shocked as you would think they would be.
"Oh no! We're going to miss our hair appointments!" Serenity shouted, looking at her watch.
"We got to go Mai!" Tea said, shaking the girl a little.
"Um, thank you," Mai said as she followed the other two girls.
At the mall's hair salon, Mai was met with the same surprise.
"Appointments for Tea Gardner and Serenity Wheeler," Tea said.
"Oh yes, you are right on time," said the woman behind the counter. Then she looked back up and said, "Do you happen to have a girl with you named Mai Valentine?"
"Yes?" Mai said, answering the question herself.
"Well you have an appointment scheduled for right now as well, already paid for."
"What!?!" This was turning out to be the strangest day Mai had ever had, to the point where it was getting creepy!
"Really? That's splendid!" Serenity said.
The three girls had their hair washed, dried, brushed, combed, curled, crimped, wrapped, hairsprayed, pulled this way and that, everything short of cutting or dyeing it. Surprisingly, all of their hair turned out great! (AN- Not going to describe them cause I'm lazy.)
This process of free stuff continued throughout the entire mall! All three of them got free shoes at the shoe store, a free necklace with their birthstones on it at the jewelry store, free makeovers, and they even got free lunches at the food court.
By the end of the day, they all looked gorgeous! Tea and Serenity convinced Mai to try it all on before they left, to get the full effect, and she only agreed to do it if they would too.
"This is great!" Serenity said, "We should stay like this for the rest of the night!"
The other two nodded their heads in agreement. Mai felt like a princess! 'But who could have done all of this!?!' Mai thought.
They walked out the doors and saw a limo parked on the curb. "Wow, I wonder who that is for," Mai said. She quickly got an answer.
A man dressed in a black suit and sun glasses, stepped out of the driver's side and said, "Mai Valentine, Tea Gardner, and Serenity Wheeler?"
"Yes?" Tea asked.
"I am your ride for this evening."
'Should have guessed,' Mai thought, 'With all of this other strange stuff happening, why not drive home in a limo?'
The three girls hopped into the limo and it drove off. But instead of taking them home, it went to Domino High School.
There were tones of students; also all dressed up, waiting outside to get into the dance. "Um, I think he's dropping you two off first," Mai said, "Have fun."
"Oh no Mai," Tea said, "You're coming too!"
"What!?!" Mai yelled as the two girls dragged her out of the vehicle. "But...but I don't have a ticket!" she stammered.
"After all of the things he bought you, you don't think he forgot to buy you a ticket!" Serenity said, as she and Tea started to walk/drag her toward a specific group of people.
"You guys knew this entire time what was going on and DIDN'T TELL ME!!!!"
"Yep!" Tea said.
A member of the group they were headed towards turned around and at first Mai didn't recognize him, but then she realized it was Yugi.
"Hey guys, they're here!" he said.
Everyone turned around and Mai recognized everyone instantly.
"Yugi, Yami, Tristan, Ryou, Bakura, Kaiba, and MOM?! You guys where all in on this!?!"
All of them smiled and shook their heads yes.
"Who started all of this!?!?!?!?!" Mai shouted.
"The only one missin," said someone from behind the group in a Brooklyn accent.
The group parted to reveal... "JOEY??????????"
Finally done with this chapter!!!!!!!! Only 2 more chapters and the insanity will end. Please review!!!!!! Bye now!!!
