Eventine: Hello friends! Welcome to my first, yes first, ever fanfic: Not Everything Is Black and White. You may not think the title makes much sense, but from my philosophical point of view it does. This story isn't very funny, and I think it's rather lacking, but I can't get better until I know what's wrong right? I know the summary you all saw sucked, so here's a slightly better one.-- Shizuka has just come out of the closet, and her life had fallen apart. A close friend shows her what love can really be like, giving her hope. Until, that is, her friend and brother are killed in a tragic car accident. The loss of the last things she held dear is too much to bear, and she falls into a world of crime, sex, and drugs. Can her friends bring her back? Perhaps, but remember, Not Everything Is Black and White.

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing. Not Yu-gi-oh, and I doubt the plot is entirely original.

Note

For anyone that has read this fiction, I highly recommend re-reading every chapter, as all of them have been at least slightly changed. Also, I totally changed chapter three, and since I have not watched the show in ages ((high school sucks)) most of this is from how I remember it being. I am pretty sure it has improved, seeing as how my dismal skills as an author have, at least slightly. So farewell my friends, and enjoy.

'Gone, it's all gone... My friends, Jounouchi....everything...' So were Shizuka's thoughts are she barricaded herself inside her bedroom, as she had done for the past three nights. Her life had fallen into a horrible routine; Wake up, shower, dress, go to school, attend class, hide in bathrooms, come home, grab food, lock bedroom door. Occasionally her pattern varied to accommodate research and bathroom breaks, but it remained ultimately the same.

'Oh, how I miss the old days, when I had friends, family, a life.... But it's gone now. Disappeared......' A soft knock on her door shattered her reverie, and she sighed before unlocking and opening her door. Her brother was standing there. A painful memory came to her, unbidden. --I'll always be here for you.' Jounouchi said, patting her head affectionately.--'Hah! what a joke! As soon as I came to terms with who I was, and admitted it, everyone abandoned me, even Jou.' " What do you want?" She muttered, unable to meet her brothers' eyes. "Phones' for you." He said, shoving the cordless maroon telephone into her hand and stalking down the dim tan hallway back to his room, shutting the door unnecessarily hard. 'A phone call? For me? Who would be calling?' She thought briefly.

She brought the phone to her mouth, her face creased, scowling slightly and said "Hello?" not daring to hope it was someone worth talking to.

"Hello Shizuka! How've you been lately?" The voice was obviously female, and slightly distorted, probably from a poor cell phone signal. A barrage of static made her pause before answering.

"Miserable."

"Oh, I'm sorry. Why's your life so glum all of a sudden?"

Shizuka's mouth fell open. 'Why do they torment me like this! Calling, and pretending they don't know what's happened, pretending to care... They make me sick!'

"Look, I don't appreciate your false sympathy," She growled into the mouth piece. "Whoever this is, just leave me alone!" Shizuka was about to hang up when the voice said, slightly shrilly, "Don't hang up Shizuka! It's me Anzu!"

Shizuka faltered. "A- Anzu? It's really you? Where have you been?"

Anzu's giggle sounded strange to Shizuka, after being in a world composed of taunting and darkness. "I was out of town with my parents remember? So, tell me, what's got you so down?"

"You mean you haven't heard?"

"Heard what silly? I've only just gotten home!"

"Th-that I'm..... bisexual."
