Chapter 2: Last time with each other
^*^*^*^*^*^Mai's POV^*^*^*^*^*^*^
I feel really guilty. Joey got detention today because he wanted to protect me. That was really sweet of him! I waited outside for him, not wanting to go home and find Kaiba there. As soon as Joey came out, I gave him a long hug, thinking that it would be my last.
"Why'd you wait for me?" he sounded confused.
"Why do you think I did, dork?"
"I was hoping that you didn't hate me yet." He started laughing. "Where do you want to go? Home?"
"No...I don't want to go home. I wanna stay here with you. It'll probably be the last time I'll spend so much time with you."

I can't believe that Mai waited for me! I mean, she always does that, but I didn't think that she would've waited for me today!
We spent the rest of the afternoon together, just being kids again. (AN: Does that sound corny? Tell me if it does) When we went to the mall, she pulled me into the shop, while I pulled her into the arcade. We had all of the fun that we used to have, trying to ignore the fact that her parents were going to break us apart.
Finally, at around 6, we left the mall. I was walking her home, when she had finally burst into tears, after holding them back so long. I was surprised, since this was one of the first times that I've seen her cry. Usually, she's pretty tough, but that's why I love her.

For some reason, while Joey was walking me home, I started to cry. One minute, I was just feeling sad for myself, and the next, tears started to well into my eyes. Then one tear came after the next, until they were flooding my face. Joey put his arm around me.
"Please don't cry. I don't want you to."
"But I don't want to marry Kaiba!"
His face softened. "It'll be ok. I'll still love you."
"OK?! Marrying Kaiba is just OK?!"
I stormed off. I didn't want to be part of this conversation any longer. Joey didn't bother to call after me. Or did he? I was too mad to notice. Why did he think that he would make me feel better? Why did I ever go out with him? He was always a knucklehead, and I knew it! Mom was right from the beginning. I just picked up a filthy little street rat and brought him into my world.

Mai can be so stubborn sometimes. Didn't she know that I was trying to make her feel better? I didn't bother to call after her. My throat dried up when she left me. I was so mad. I don't even think that she loves me anymore. Maybe she never did. Maybe she just thought of me as another boy- toy. I've seen her mess around with other guys, especially the popular ones, and make them look like a fool in front of the whole school. I thought that I was lucky to have her. Maybe I wasn't.
