Twisted Obsession
Chapter 2: New Place, New Life, New Roommate
"Wow!! Look at this place!!!" Yuugi admired the spacious Great Hall of his new school. He spun around, partly attempting to gaze in awe at the beautiful designs of the grand entrance, and partly trying to take in all the beauty and comforting himself from all his recent sadness. Grey marble dominated the tall walls, running down the fortifications and flowing on the floor and down the front steps. The ceiling was bordered with white rims, carved with tiny designs of miniature shapes resembling duel monsters. Yuugi smiled at the patterns, relieved to know that this school knew what dueling was about.
A map to his right planned out the whole schoolgrounds. The Ground Floor was for dining and such. The Second Floor was to let the duelists train. Floor Three was for tournaments and any competitions that might have happened during the school year. And for another two floors served the purpose of being dormitories.
The sixteen year-old boy twirled around to face his parents, beaming at them, rather than glowering at them in hatred. "Thanks! Maybe this place won't be too bad! Look at this place! It's beautiful." He hugged his parents, mentally forgiving them for sending him to a boarding school. At last! He was going to make friends, friends who loved dueling and the cards as much as he did. And the pain and suffering that he had to endure all his life was going to be soon over.
This was his home.
A voice behind him snapped him back to reality. "Hello, and welcome to Celestial Academy!" The white haired male directed his gaze at the teen. "I suppose you're Yuugi Motou?"
The tri-haired boy's parents nodded, smiling at their son.
Yuugi returned a great grin and faced the welcomer. He was tall, well, taller than him, and slim. The boy was around his age, though looking a lot older than Yuugi, who still looked like an eight-year-old. His hair was cut untidily in different lengths, covering his pale skin. "Well, Yuugi," continued the male welcomer A/N: Is that even a word?, "Let me show you to your dormitory so that you can unpack all your belongings, while your parents enjoy a cup of coffee with our headmistress! Right this way please!" He waved a vague hand towards the double doors that were left ajar, and led the three new comers into another elegant room, this time with silk covered couches and glass tables.
A woman stood in front of the beautiful set of furniture, waiting for them with a big, joyful smile on her chubby face. The young white haired male stopped in front of her and bow his head slightly, showing his respect towards her. Then turning around to face the guests, he introduced them to the woman. "This is Yuugi Motou and his parents, Professor McBaker, and this," He indicated the woman, "is our headmistress, Professor Spinnet." The woman took turns shaking Yuugi's parents' hands, and told them to sit down for a cup of coffee. The boy turned to Yuugi and smiled.
A/N (Ichigo): Do NOT ask where we got those names. --; There's enough stress as it is.
"Here, let me show you to your dormitory, you're going to be in the one right next to mine. Your roomate is currently busy right now. Oh, silly me, my name's Bakura, by the way. Follow me." He helped Yuugi with his luggage and the two left the room. However, once the door closed behind them, Bakura dropped the bag he was holding and slammed Yuugi against the wall, with only a few inches of air separating their faces. "You're a pretty sexy guy, you know that?" Bakura smirked and stroked Yuugi's delicate face. "What's a little innocent boy like you, doing here, is this _dirty_ school?"
Yuugi whimpered, still shocked about the fact that Bakura had turned into a monster after closing the door; and to think a minute ago, he was holding his luggage for him and smiling nicely. Bakura laughed aloud, which echoed throughout the dim hallway. "So, you like dueling, do you? Is that why you came to this school?" Yuugi nodded in fright, not daring to defy the white haired teen. "You know, they don't just teach us about dueling here. They also teach us to" Bakura licked his ear. Yuugi winced at the seductive action that Bakura had presently performed. The tri-haired boy closed his eyes, hoping for it to end. To his disappointment and anxiety, it didn't. "Mmm, you taste good, sweet. Very sweet." Bakura leaned forward to lick Yuugi some more.
"Aw, come on, Bakura, cut it out. You're done tasting. Now let go of him." A voice said behind Bakura, with others snickering, or sniggering, quietly. Bakura grimaced and let go of Yuugi. Pouting slightly, the white haired boy turned to the group behind him.
"But he tasted good. Perhaps even better," he frowned at the voice who told him to stop, recognizing it to be another white haired boy, "than you, Ryou." He ended with a smirk. Ryou pouted.
"Bakura!" he abandoned the group and began running after the said teen, who had his tongue stuck out and was running away.
"Come catch me first!" he grinned as another thought struck his mind. He slowed his pace just as Ryou caught up to him. He did an one-eighty turn and ran back to the group. He could hear Ryou panting behind him. He skidded to a halt and turned to face Ryou, resulting in a _very_ crushing kiss.
Yuugi ducked his head at this open display of affection, while the rest of the group directed their attention to him. He tried to make himself invisible as all the stares bored into him.
"Aww..." a girl with long, wavy blonde hair cooed. "Isn't he just a darling?" She walked towards him and tilted his head upwards. "And he has the most adorable eyes! Such a rare shade of violet, don't you think?" She continued giving him compliments, and when she was done, Yuugi had turned at least ten shades of red.
"KAWAII!"
The boys groaned as the two girls continued to swoon over the new teen.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
As a figure neared the windows, blinding sun rays filtered through, causing the teen to shield his sharp face with his arm. Clad in a black leather shirt and a pair of black leather pants, he muttered something under his breath and continued walking out of the library. He pushed his glasses (thin in layer, and black as the frame) back to its original position; it being jostled out of place when he had to block out the sun, thus covering beautiful yet angular ruby red eyes. A choker was wrapped around his neck, and several loose silver and gold bracelets dangled and jangled off of his wrists. As for footwear, he had a pair of black boots on. Possibly that's the reason why the hall echoed with a sharp noise everytime he took a step.
A/N (Ichigo): Hee, imagine Yami with glasses! *remembers piccie* He's quite cute, actually! ^-^
And in any teacher's eye, Yami Hikoru was certainly one bad boy.
He ascended the stairs to the fifth floor, where his dormitory was only three rooms from the right. He tipped his books carelessly on to his bed and plopped down on his chair. He turned on the computer and a robotic voice emitted from it: "Voice identification. Please state your name."
"Yami Hikoru."
"Name correct. Please state your task."
"Check e-mail."
"User name?"
"sexy_hot_king@hotmail.com." (The guy has a big ego, huh?)
"Password?"
"Hikoru."
"Entry is yours."
Yami swung around in his chair and turned to face his monitor. His eyes scanned the list from top to bottom. "Junk mail, junk mail, and more junk mail..." he muttered. However, there was one mail that he found interesting.
Strangely enough for him, it was marked as "Headmistress".
He clicked on it and started to read.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hey, Yuugi, don't mind those four, they're just nutcases," a blond guy, who identified himself as Jounouchi Katsuya, joked.
"Same with the one who was just talking," the brunette boy who stood beside Jounouchi spoke up, and sniggered.
It took a while, but Jounouchi got the message through his head. "HEY!" But by the time the comment was out of his mouth, the brunette had already sprinted down the hall, heading for the stairs.
Yuugi giggled at their antics.
"Those two are always like that. Oh, by the way, my name's Seto Kaiba," another brunette with cold, blue eyes introduced himself. "The brunette that's being chased by Jounouchi is called Honda Hiroto. The blonde girl who was just swarming around you was Mai Kajyaku. The black hair guy with the bandanna is known as Otogi Ryuuji.As you know, the more evil-looking white haired teen is Bakura. He doesn't have a last name, but he seems to attach himself to Ryou Bakura everytime they're together in the same room." He rolled his eyes. "And YET another brunette...her name is Anzu Mazaki. In my opinion, you should really stay away from her, since once you get her started on a friendship rant, or any other topic, she'll go non-stop. Trust me, I have experience."
Yuugi nodded, thoroughly convinced by Seto's firm words. After all, just when he finished saying the last name, every head whipped around, well, except that of Anzu's, and seconded what he said.
"And finally, your roommate. He might be difficult to cope with at first, since he is very closed - I mean, around his close friends, he can be very fun indeed, but if you're a stranger, he acts suspicious around you. So...you might have a hard time adjusting."
Yuugi smiled brightly. "Oh that's all right! I'll manage."
"You don't know about him. His temper is very sudden," Seto insisted as they climbed the stairs to the fifth floor. They stopped in front of Room 510.
"This is your room, Yuugi."
"Thanks, Seto." He turned to pick up his luggage, but to his surprise they were being held by someone already. "Jounouchi?"
"Please, call me Jou. Everyone here does; well, besides the teachers."
"Okay, Jou. Thanks!"
"You're welcome. Now let's go in."
Yuugi knocked timidly, hardly loud enough for anyone to hear. Seto shook his head.
"You need to knock louder, Yami can be deaf when he's absorbed in something." He knocked again, the sound at least ten times louder than Yuugi had done it. "Yo, Yami, come open this door right now!"
Inside, Yami grumbled and stood up, almost losing his balance in his haste. He had just finished reading and deleted the message, when he realized what the knock meant.
His new roommate was here.
He wrenched open the door to meet with Seto, Jounouchi, Honda, Ryou, Bakura, Otogi, Mai, and...he scowled. Anzu. He blinked. They were all familiar faces, each with their own roommmates. Where was the new kid?
Seto gestured to something below him. Crimson locked with pure violet as Yami looked down at his new roommate...or rather, his look-a-like. He continued to stare at Yuugi, who was starting to get nervous under the scrutinizing gaze.
Through the haze that those two are imagining to surround them, Yami broke the spell. "So you're Yuugi Motou, huh?"
Yuugi blinked. How had he known? "Um...yes."
"Well, come on in."
The others were surprised. Yami was never this open with strangers.
They all trooped inside, most of them managing to squish in, all save one brunette girl.
"Anzu, go away," came Yami's commanding voice as the room appeaered to be packed, hardly any place to breathe.
She pouted, but realizing after five minutes later that it didn't work, she stomped away.
"This is your bed," he pointed to the piece of furniture beside him. "This side of the room is yours, and this side is mine. Got it?"
"Yes."
"Oh yeah, my name's Yami Hikoru."
"Nice to meet you!" Yuugi smiled brightly, making yami quiver at the sight. No one, and he meant absolutely _no one_, had been able to stir such emotion inside of him!
"We gotta go," Honda said, heading for the door. "We'll see you both late." They all exited, leaving two tri-coloured hair boys alone in a very uncomfortable silence.
"So, um...where're you from?" Yami smacked himself mentally. 'Geez, what's wrong with me? I've never hesitated when asking someone a question.'
"Tokyo, Japan" was Yuugi's muffled reply as his head emerged from a pile of clothes that he had just unpacked.
Yami couldn't help but laugh. This kid was adorab- He caught himself just in time. 'Wait a minute! I've only met him for five minutes, and I'm already saying he's adorable!?'
The clock struck three. Yuugi was done unpacking. He flipped on his bed so that he was looking at the white ceiling. Well, facing the ceiling; his eyes were closed to symbolize tiredness.
Yami almost drooled at the sight of an exposed stomach on the opposite side.
'All right, that does it! We're going somewhere else where there's more people!' He stood up abruptly and grabbed Yuugi's arm, jolting the younger boy out of his light nap. Confusion and sleep was clear in his purple eyes.
"Wha...? Where are we going?" he asked drowsily.
"To the third floor."
Yuugi woke up completely. They were going to duel!
~*~ To be Continued ~*~
Ichigo: Phew, I had a hard time figuring out where I should end it. After all, Akuma GAVE me criterias. --; Fluff AND making Yami meet Yuugi. At least this chapter was longer, and had more information in it, ne?
Akuma: *disappeared*
Ichigo: Well, read and review, guys! They help a lot!
