Hey everyone. This chapter is going to be much longer, (I hope) and funnier
too. (Also, I hope.) Thankies to Kitty and Egyptian Dragoness for reviewing
and Dragoness, yes, I am using the same pairings as Kitty and there will be
more of the other pairings a little later. I'm having trouble with that, so
bear with me here, it gets better.
Oh, that and, I FIXED MY CHAPTER PROBLEMS!! ^______^ (You can tell I'm happy about this eh?) I figured out how to make it easier to read and I'm hoping that everything goes according to plan. I'm trying out different ways of doing italics so also bear with me if things go wrong. *sighs* It's so tough trying to keep track of what works. But don't worry, I'm not easily discouraged. And this Author's Note is way too long, so I'll shut up now.
Disclaimer: I don't own Pink, Brian Adams or Avril Lavigne, but I think you could have figured that out. It's the lawyers I need to placate. (P.S: The songs that are in here are actually ones that I was listening to while I was writing, so that's how they ended up in there. ^__^)

When Kurry arrived home later that evening, her parents were anxious to know how her first day of school had been. Kurry explained over dinner that her teachers were very nice and that she'd already made a few friends, but that she would have to attend more classes to see how they turned out. Her parents were delighted that she was fitting in so well, and offered to invite some of the friends over. Kurry said thanks, but not right away, and after dinner retired to her spacious bedroom to think.
Kurry quietly shut the door and moved into her room. It was a very nice room, painted a sky blue with white lace curtains on the balcony window, an oak dresser, desk and bookshelf, a large closet and numerous electronics, including a computer and her pride and joy, her stereo. This last she flicked on and grabbed the remote. Flopping on her bed, she hit the button for her favourite radio station and as the strains of Brian Adams' "I Do It For You" wafted around the room, she shut her eyes and began to meditate.
This is something of her train of thought;
+Okay, I have just met the YGO gang. They are very nice people, who have a few very mysterious ways. They've got yamis, Sennen Items and special powers, and yet.I feel I can trust them. They've never done anything to harm me.heck, I only met them this morning.but they seem so fun.and Malik's pretty cute too.GAH!! Where did THAT come from?!?! Oh well.he is, but let's just leave THAT thought alone.Hmmm. I've been alone for so long I'm actually not sure what to do.but Yugi's story was so exciting.I think I'll just go with the flow for awhile. Who knows, being friends with them could be my destiny. Although it's hard to imagine having a destiny at 14.+
Chuckling to herself at that last thought, Kurry opened her eyes, stretched and got out her tiny amount of first-day homework to finish.
Later, as she was preparing for bed, Kurry suddenly remembered her mother's suggestion that she invite some of her new friends over soon. She decided that Wednesday would be the best, and headed off to sleep.
'Hang out at your house?' Yugi cocked an eyebrow.
'Yeah,' Kurry nodded.
'On Wednesday?'
'Yep, you guys can walk home with me. My house is just a few blocks from here.'
Yugi still looked hesitant.
'Something wrong?'
Yugi suddenly grinned. 'Oh no, of course not, we'd love to come, but are you sure?'
Now it was Kurry's turn to cock an eyebrow in confusion. 'Whadda ya mean?'
'Well, you only met us yesterday and your parents must be unsure...'
Recognition dawned. 'Oh no prob. In fact it was my mom who suggested it.'
'Oh! Okay then! I'll see who's available. Joey usually has practise tomorrow and Mai's got her after-school job...I'll get back to ya at lunch, 'K?'
'K?'
And with that, they both waved and headed their separate ways. When Kurry arrived in homeroom, Malik waved her over to the back of the room.
'Hi,' he said nervously as she plopped into her seat next to him.
'Hey. I'm having a bit of a hangout at my place after school on Wednesday. Wanna come?'
Malik inwardly grinned, but on the outside he nonchalantly answered, 'Lemme think about it.'
Kurry looked almost disappointed. 'Oh, okay.'
Malik couldn't stop himself from grinning outwardly this time as he reached over and poked Kurry. 'Oy.'
'Yeah?'
'I thought about it.'
Now she was grinning. 'And?'
'Sure I'll come.'
'Kay, great.'
The bell rang and the class promptly rose and flooded out into the hall.
At lunch Malik kept them all laughing as he told the story of the one time he'd been able to get Bakura to visit a mall. When he described the look on Bakura's face as he, Malik, had shoved him into a lingerie store, Kurry just lost it and set everyone else off by snorting loudly. Malik had to stop telling the story for a few minutes, he was laughing so hard. They had a lot of fun.
That afternoon it was Joey and Seren's turn to host everybody, where they all went to their apartment and did homework and talked about stuff. Kurry enjoyed herself immensely.
Afterwards Malik offered to walk Kurry home. They talked about random things until they reached Kurry's street.
'Thanks mate,' Kurry said, stopping. 'My house is right over there.'
'Cool. Hey, can I bring Isis tomorrow?'
'Of course. How come she's not at school?'
'Oh, she was skipped in 6th grade, she graduated last year. Works at the museum now.'
'Oh really?'
'Yeah, she's actually the curator.'
Kurry whistled lightly. 'Well done her. I'll see ya tomorrow, 'K?'
'Yep.'
'Bye.'
Kurry turned and jogged lightly down the street, turning in at her driveway. She waved to Malik before dashing inside.
Malik waved back, grinning to himself. +And with that, the ice is broken,+ he thought to himself as he wandered off home.
All through the next day, Kurry's leg was jiggling. Yugi had told her that Serenity, Yami and Isis could come, plus she had Malik's promise. Around lunchtime Ryou came running up to her and told her that he and Bakura could come too. So now she was doubly nervous, and anxious for the school day to end.
Her class had gym for the first time that day. Kurry changed into her gym clothes in the change-room and ran out with the rest of the girls to the gym. Since it was their first gym class, they spent some time sorting out attendance records and then they had free time. Somewhere in the confusion Kurry and Malik found them selves opposite each other in badminton. Kurry smirked at Malik, challenging him with her eyes. He returned the smirk and the two opponents inclined their heads courteously at each other, to show it was a friendly battle. Then Malik served, and the battle was on! The birdie flew back and forth for about 5 minutes before Malik gave it all he had and belted it across the gym. It flew over Kurry's head and as she stretched to whack it, overbalanced and fell into a pile of softballs. Malik winced and then burst out laughing as Kurry sat up rather WoOzIlY and looking something like this. @___@ But his laughter turned to an expression of shock as Kurry held up the birdie clutched in her fist.
'There's no way you could have caught that!' he hollered across at her.
Kurry just grinned. 'I'm faster than I look!' she yelled back before serving. Malik nodded acquiescingly then beaned it back. He had to admit she was good. She kept him on his toes throughout the match. However he didn't know that he was doing the same for her. They had a ball.
After school Malik ran to catch up to Kurry, who was going to collect the others. Tapping her on the shoulder, he said, 'I demand a rematch.'
She turned to him, laughing. 'Why? You won.'
'Yeah, but you got softballed and that's not fair.'
She giggled. 'Awww, that's sweet of you,' she shot back at him, punching him lightly on the arm. Malik suddenly couldn't hide the light blush that was creeping up on him, but fortunately Kurry had turned and was waving at the group.
Ryou and the others wandered up. Kurry noticed that Yami, Bakura and Isis had arrived as well.
'Ready to go?' asked Kurry. 'Yep!' said everybody. 'Good.' Kurry pointed in the direction of her house. 'That way.'
As they walked, Malik and Kurry told what happened in gym class. They all found it rather funny, but the girls were completely oblivious to the silent nudging, winking and ribbing going on between the boys. When they reached Kurry's house she unlocked the door and led them all inside.
'My parents won't be home for another hour or so. D'you all want a snack?' asked Kurry.
There was a chorus of 'sures' and Kurry with Serenity in tow went into the kitchen to make something, only to find a huge plate of cookies and a pitcher of iced tea out on the counter.
'Ooo! Well, I guess we're taken care of. Grab that stack of cups right there and we'll go upstairs.'
Meanwhile, the others were admiring the house. Malik whistled under his breath and sidled up to Yami, who was examining the ceiling with his mouth open.
'Nice digs, eh?' whispered Malik.
'Yeah. It's almost as nice as the palace back home,' Yami whispered back. Malik rolled his eyes exasperatedly.
'Is that all you ever think about?'
Fortunately, Kurry returned just in time to prevent a sparring match. 'C'mon y'all, let's go up.'
They all trooped upstairs to Kurry's room. This time it was Ryou who whistled as they took in their surroundings.
'This is such a nice room!' Serenity exclaimed.
'Indeed,' added Isis.
'Why thank you. It's comfortable, even if it is a tad too large. Have a seat.' Kurry moved over to her stereo and poked a few buttons. The strains of Avril Lavigne's "Anything But Ordinary" filled the room. The others flopped on the bed, floor or huge pillows that Kurry had scattered about the room, bringing them all over closer to the bed.
'Which page first?' Kurry asked as they all dug out homework.
They worked on that for about half an hour, then slowly forgot about it as they got to talking and examining the various items in Kurry's room.
Isis was drooling over Kurry's stereo. 'Where did you get it?' she breathed, trying out some of the functions.
'You like? I got it at Sears. (Don't ask.) It was the best one there,' answered Kurry, hopping off the bed and coming over. 'Hey, do any of y'all dance?'
'Wha?' The boys looked confused, but Serenity and Isis nodded.
'You dance, Isis?' Yami asked, astounded.
'Yep,' said Isis, swaying a bit.
Serenity was looking through Kurry's CD collection. 'Ooo! Here's a good one!' she exclaimed and popped the CD in.
"I'mmmmm, comin' up,
so you better get this party started,
I'mmmmm, comin' up,
so you better get this party started."
The other two girls backed off as Isis came forward, swaying and mouthing the words. Everyone started clapping in time to the beat.
"Get this party started on a Saturday night,
Everybody's waitin', for me to arrive,
Sendin' out the message to all of my friends,
We'll be lookin' flashy in my Mercedes-Benz,
I got lots of style, check my gold-diamond rings,
I can got for miles if you know what I mean,"
Kurry and Seren came up behind Isis and joined in the chorus, high-fiveing each other when they saw the looks on the boys faces. They had a hard time trying not to giggle.
"Pumpin' up the volume, breakin' down to the beat,
Cruisin' through the west side, we'll be checkin' the scene,
Boulevard is freakin' as I'm comin' up fast,
I'll be burnin' rubber, you'll be kissin' my @$$.
Pull up to the bumper, get out of the car,
License plate says Stunner #1 Superstar!"
It was Seren's turn next, but she lost it in the middle of her verse when she burst out laughing at the look on Yami's face. That set the other two off, but Kurry managed to compose herself enough to slide forward on her cue. Isis and Serenity took either side and imitated her movements perfectly, creating an in-sync effect that went over real well with the boys. (^___^)
"Makin' my connection as I enter the room,
Everybody's chillin' as I set up the groove,
Pumpin' up the volume with this brand new beat,
Everybody's dancin' and they're dancin' for me,
I'm your operator you can call anytime,
I'll be your connection to the party line."
As Malik watched, he suddenly became very aware of how Kurry moved to the beat; real fluid-like, almost as if she was the beat. +She must've taken lessons...I'll have to ask her. She dances real well though...ACK! Where did THAT come from?!? Oh well...she does, but I'd better leave THAT thought alone. Gosh, she's pretty...GAH!+ and mentally slapped himself.
The song finished, Kurry, Serenity and Isis collapsed against each other, laughing hysterically.
'That....was so much fun!' Serenity cried out.
'You go girl!' Isis added, high-fiveing Kurry.
'Right back at ya!' Kurry grinned at Isis, then turned and mock-bowed to the guys, who were clapping wildly and catcalling. Still giggling, the girls rejoined the guys on the bed/floor.
'Oy! Who wants to play Truth or Dare?' Isis called.
'What's that?' Kurry asked.
The room went deadly still and silent.
'You don't know what Truth or Dare is?' Malik asked in a hushed voice.
'Er...no,' Kurry answered nervously.
'It's...only...the MOST FUN GAME IN THE WORLD!!' Serenity squealed, jumping up and down. Everyone sweatdropped.
'Er...don't ask?' Serenity said sheepishly.
'Oookayy then.' Kurry muttered.
'Here, it goes like this,' Bakura spoke up. 'Malik, Truth or Dare?'
'Truth!' said Malik.
Bakura smirked. 'Okay then. You ever had a girlfriend before?' (Kurry perked up at this.)
Malik looked down at his feet. 'Er...no, no I haven't.'
There was some soft chuckles, then Bakura said, 'Okay, now it's Malik's turn.'
'Ryou! Truth or Dare?' Malik barked. Ryou jumped. 'Uh....dare...I mean, no! Truth! TRUTH!'
Everyone burst out laughing. 'Too late Ryou, you said dare,' Malik taunted. Ryou gulped. 'I dare you to...ask Serenity to marry you!'
Serenity went like this: *-* and Ryou went like this: O____O!!! Everyone else was laughing hysterically. 'Down on one knee and everything!' Malik called. ('Don't let Joey or Seto hear about this!' Isis whispered to Kurry.) Ryou eeeped, grabbed Serenity's hand and dragged her to the center of the room. Glaring daggers at Malik, he went down on one knee before saying, 'Serenity, will you marry me?' Serenity was beet red, but she managed to nod. Ryou promptly leapt up and hurled himself at Malik, knocking the hysterical psycho right off the bed. They began rolling around on the floor, grappling in a fierce but hilarious contest. Finally, Yami and Kurry had enough and hauled the two apart.
'Ryou, it's your turn,' Yami said wearily.
Ryou suddenly got an evil grin that was more characteristic of his yami and said, 'Alright, Yami, Truth or Dare?'
'Dare!' said Yami, bravely or foolishly, you decide.
'I dare you to get Isis and do a really dramatic love confession, improve.' Ryou smirked. Yami and Isis both looked like this: =O___O= and then they looked at each other and blushed like crazy.
Fortunately they were saved by the arrival of Kurry's parents. Her mother stuck her head in the door to see a bunch of laughing teenagers and two blushing ones.
'Well! This is a nice large group of friends!' she exclaimed.
'Hi mum,' said Kurry, still giggling.
'Hi Mrs. Kurishi,' everyone else chorused.
'Ma, this is Ryou, Yami, Isis, Serenity, Bakura and Malik,' Kurry introduced, motioning around. Mrs. Kurishi nodded, then looked confused. 'Um, why are there two of you?' she asked, pointing at Ryou and Bakura.
Bakura ducked and Ryou went whiter than usual. 'Er...um...uh...' he stammered.
'They're brothers!' Kurry blurted.
Everyone stared at her.
'Er...yeah, they're like twins, but Bakura's older. What's that called anyway?' Kurry desperately stared at Ryou for help.
'Uh, uh, fraternal, maternal, something like that,' Ryou said. Bakura held very still.
'Oh. Well nice to meet you all,' and with that she left, though she did look at them strangely as she did so.
The teens all let out a sigh of relief. 'Way to go mate,' Malik said, poking Kurry.
'That was close,' said Yami.
'Yeah, and thank Ra Yugi isn't here. Imagine trying to explain that!' added Ryou, who walked over to Bakura and smacked him lightly upside the head. 'Baka!'
'Ow! @__@ What was that for?' Bakura growled, rubbing his head.
'You forgot the plan! Some response time you have!' Ryou shot back.
'Guys, relax. My parents are real easy-going, they'll have forgotten about it by tomorrow,' said Kurry, waving off the issue. (By the way, the plan was for Bakura to dart back into his soul room.)

Wow, that one was a whole nine pages! I hope it's really long on the web, but it's hard to tell with these things. -___- Please review! Thanks!
Oh, that and, I FIXED MY CHAPTER PROBLEMS!! ^______^ (You can tell I'm happy about this eh?) I figured out how to make it easier to read and I'm hoping that everything goes according to plan.

I got lots of style, check my gold-diamond rings,
I can got for miles if you know what I mean,"
Kurry and Seren came up behind Isis and joined in the chorus, high-fiveing each other when they saw the looks on the boys faces. They had a hard time trying not to giggle.
"Pumpin' up the volume, breakin' down to the beat,
Cruisin' through the west side, we'll be checkin' the scene,
Boulevard is freakin' as I'm comin' up fast,
I'll be burnin' rubber, you'll be kissin' my @$$.

License plate says Stunner #1 Superstar!"

There was some soft chuckles, then Bakura said, 'Okay, now it's Malik's turn.'
'Ryou! Truth or Dare?' Malik barked. Ryou jumped. 'Uh....dare...I mean, no! Truth! TRUTH!'
Everyone burst out laughing. 'Too late Ryou, you said dare,' Malik taunted. Ryou gulped. 'I dare you to...ask Serenity to marry you!'
Serenity went like this: *-* and Ryou went like this: O____O!!! Everyone else was laughing hysterically. 'Down on one knee and everything!' Malik called. ('Don't let Joey or Seto hear about this!' Isis whispered to Kurry.) Ryou eeeped, grabbed Serenity's hand and dragged her to the center of the room. Glaring daggers at Malik, he went down on one knee before saying, 'Serenity, will you marry me?' Serenity was beet red, but she managed to nod. Ryou promptly leapt up and hurled himself at Malik, knocking the hysterical psycho right off the bed. They began rolling around on the floor, grappling in a fierce but hilarious contest. Finally, Yami and Kurry had enough and hauled the two apart.
'Ryou, it's your turn,' Yami said wearily.
Ryou suddenly got an evil grin that was more characteristic of his yami and said, 'Alright, Yami, Truth or Dare?'
'Dare!' said Yami, bravely or foolishly, you decide.
'I dare you to get Isis and do a really dramatic love confession, improve.' Ryou smirked. Yami and Isis both looked like this: =O___O= and then they looked at each other and blushed like crazy.
Fortunately they were saved by the arrival of Kurry's parents. Her mother stuck her head in the door to see a bunch of laughing teenagers and two blushing ones.
'Well! This is a nice large group of friends!' she exclaimed.
'Hi mum,' said Kurry, still giggling.
'Hi Mrs. Kurishi,' everyone else chorused.
'Ma, this is Ryou, Yami, Isis, Serenity, Bakura and Malik,' Kurry introduced, motioning around. Mrs. Kurishi nodded, then looked confused. 'Um, why are there two of you?' she asked, pointing at Ryou and Bakura.
Bakura ducked and Ryou went whiter than usual. 'Er...um...uh...' he stammered.
'They're brothers!' Kurry blurted.
Everyone stared at her.
'Er...yeah, they're like twins, but Bakura's older. What's that called anyway?' Kurry desperately stared at Ryou for help.
'Uh, uh, fraternal, maternal, something like that,' Ryou said. Bakura held very still.
'Oh. Well nice to meet you all,' and with that she left, though she did look at them strangely as she did so.
The teens all let out a sigh of relief. 'Way to go mate,' Malik said, poking Kurry.
'That was close,' said Yami.
'Yeah, and thank Ra Yugi isn't here. Imagine trying to explain that!' added Ryou, who walked over to Bakura and smacked him lightly upside the head. 'Baka!'
'Ow! @__@ What was that for?' Bakura growled, rubbing his head.
'You forgot the plan! Some response time you have!' Ryou shot back.
'Guys, relax. My parents are real easy-going, they'll have forgotten about it by tomorrow,' said Kurry, waving off the issue. (By the way, the plan was for Bakura to dart back into his soul room.)
