The day after I accused Joey of liking Kaiba, he avoided me. Either I was right or he realized I was. It wasn't till lunch that he had to face me; the gang always ate lunch together.

I don't really see what the big deal is. When a girl likes someone it's usually all over school in half an hour. But I guess it's different when the person you like it the president of Kaiba Corp, one of the top duelists and, supposedly hates your guts. I see he point... though the key word is supposedly.

Every time I opened my mouth to say something Joey looked pleadingly at me. He probably doesn't want me to spill his secret, either that or he wanted the piece of chocolate cake I was about to eat.

Towards the end of lunch, Joey caught up with me at my locker.

"Meet me at the park after school, Kay?"

I was at the park waiting for Joey.

"Soooo," I said as he approached. We started walking.

"Have you finally come to your senses and realized you like him?" I said. Sorry - I just couldn't resist.

"I told you I don't like Kai-" Suddenly a deep voice interrupted our conversation.

"So if it isn't the mutt and his girlfriend." Speak of the devil - Kaiba!

Normally I would retaliate to some comment like that but since this happened to be the crush of my best friend I let it go. Anyway I wanted to see how Joey reacted.

No matter what Kiaba said it always made Joey mad, it could have been a compliment for all it mattered. After Joey replyed with his usual comebacks and Kiaba said his usual 'goodbye puppy' Joey turned back to me.

He looked really strange, but what was even stranger was what he next said.

"I like Seto kaiba."
