Disclaimer: No, I don't own Yu- Gi- Oh. What makes you think that?
SIDE NOTE: Whoo; been a while for this one, eh? Well, it's here, at least. ^_^ Um... I'm not sure what to say, except... well, if you wanna know about updates and stories to come, just look at my bio. And... thanks for reviewing! ^_^
Yugi sighed glumly, slumping over his desk in a worried trance. How would he get his card back? Right... by getting Mai and Joey to break up. But he couldn't do that! They had such a strong and loving relationship. Joey and Mai were his friends. He just couldn't do that to them.
It was Performing Arts. Kaiba had been giving him evil looks all that morning. He just knew he'd get the same looks passing him in the halls and in the classes they had together... he just thanked the high heavens that Kaiba didn't take Performing Arts class.
"Alright, class; I have some important news to tell you," the teacher perkily stood in front of the class, holding up a newspaper. She flipped over the paper to show an ad for a Performing Arts contest. "We have the special opportunity to participate in the Tokyo National Performing Arts Contest! Isn't that wonderful? Each Performing Arts class in Tokyo's schools are given the chance to create a play of their very own and compete for a very shiny trophy! Oooh; isn't it a pretty trophy class? I just love trophies... unfortunately, I've never had the chance to get one. Well, except for once, but THAT JANET SHANZER JUST HAD TO STEAL THE SPOTLIGHT, DIDN'T SHE?!" The teacher sighed. "Anyway, the theme for the contest is 'every day high school life'. Isn't that fun? We'll need three people to write out the script, so who volunteers?"
At first, no one raised their hands. 'Every day high school life? How boring.' Yugi thought. 'Go to school, sit in class, listen to teachers all day.' He sighed. 'If you're lucky you'll get a girlfriend or something. Then she'll dump you, or you'll dump... her...' Yugi raised his hand. The teacher blinked in surprise.
"Only one? Oh, but Yugi, you couldn't possibly do it by yourself..."
"Why can't Mai and Joey help me?"
"Oh... well, I suppose that's alright... Mister Wheeler? Miss Valentine? Would you consider helping Yugi with the script?"
Mai and Joey looked at Yugi as though he were insane. Yugi nodded at them with a pleading look in his eyes. Hesitantly, the pair agreed.
"Wonderful! Now, as soon as the script's all put together, we'll get to auditioning! See you next week!" The teacher waved to all her students as the bell rang.
"You've got somethin' on your mind, Yug'," Joey said. "I can feel it."
"Yeah, Yugi, what's up?" Mai's eyes took on a concerned look.
"I'll tell you guys later," Yugi said brightly. "See you later!" He skipped off.
"You shouldn't look so happy, Yugi," Yugi turned around at the sound of Kaiba's voice. He gulped.
"H- hi Kaiba... nice... weather...?"
"Don't 'hi' me, Yugi. You still have to get Wheeler and his prissy little girlfriend to break up. Am I clear?"
Yugi nodded nervously. "Crystal."
"Good," with a swish of his coat, Kaiba walked off down the hall. Yugi heaved a sigh of relief and then went right back to smiling. Kaiba had NO idea what he was in for.
"What's got you so happy all of a sudden?" Yami asked when Yugi came home that day. "You still have to make Joey and Mai break up to get your card back, remember?"
"Oh, I don't have to make them break up, Yami," Yugi said brightly. "Not anymore, anyway."
Yami blinked in surprise. "Kaiba let you off the hook?"
Yugi shook his head, still smiling. "Nope."
Now Yami was confused. "What are you so happy about then?"
Yugi, STILL smiling, leaned over and whispered something in Yami's ear. The ancient pharaoh's face went from confusion, to surprise, to amusement, and then finally to approval. He laughed.
"Yugi, that's brilliant! Have you told Mai and Joey?"
Yugi shook his head. "No, but I will. They're coming over tomorrow."
Yami shook his head. "You surprise me, Yugi. You're too cunning, even for Seto Kaiba. It absolutely amazes me."
"Hmmm. What will I do next? Well...," Yugi yawned. "G'night, Yami."
"Good- night, Yugi."
And then, Yugi turned off the lights.
SIDE NOTE: Well? What'd you think? I think this one might be pretty easy to get, but I'll keep it "suspenseful" throughout the whole thing, anyway; just for fun. And for the people who don't get it, if people don't get it. Well, please review!
