Chapter two

Untitled

It was a Friday and Honda was walking to school. The weather was cool and sunny. Students littered the sidewalk as they walked to school. Honda let out a sigh and shook his head.

It's all the same thing. He thought. I get up, shower, get dress and go to school. I know there's something--

"Hey, Honda-kun!" A voice said, breaking Honda's train of thought. "Why do you look so down?"

Honda jumped and tuned to see his friends, Yugi Mutou, Jounouchi Katsuya, and Anzu Mazaki walking next to him.

"Ohayou Gozaimasu," Honda said with a bow. The other replied and also bowed.

"Are you okay?" Anzu asked. "You seemed nervous."

Honda smiled and stated, "I'm not nervous." He started to laugh.

"Looks like someone had too much coffee this morning." Jou said *sweatdrop*.

At school in Homeroom, the student was engaged in separate Duel Monster Battles. Yugi and Anzu were watching Jou and Bakrua having a battle. Jou placed his Red Eye Black Dragon in attack mode after Ryou placed down a trap card. I didn't know which trap card it was because I didn't watch the whole thing. I sat in my seat and began to stare out the window.

There was feeling that Honda had that was hovering over him. He was feeling that everything was the same and that there's something that he's missing.

Honda's P.O.V

I sat there, wondering about everything. I know that there's something missing from my life but I don't what it is. Everyone else is so happy but me. It's strange because I should be happy but I just can't.

"What's wrong, Honda?" A voice asked.

I looked at the chair to my right and seen Yugi sitting next to me. His purple eyes looked at me with worry.

"Nothing," I replied.

"Yeah right," Yugi said. "We're best friends. I know when there's something wrong with you. Come on, you can tell me anything."

"Well, okay," Honda started. "I think I have a crush on someone."

"That's great!" Yugi said. "Who is it? Is it Anzu?"

Yugi's P.O.V

"Iie," Honda replied.

Honda looked over towards Anzu, Ryou, and Jou. His face slightly turned red as he blushed. I followed his view and realized that he was looking at Jou as he dueled.

"Oh," I whispered. "You like Jou, don't you?"

"Hai, I do. I don't know why but I find him cute."

I looked over at Jou. He just stood with a smile on his face.

"Yeah!" He said. "I won!" He did an anime pose with him doing the peace sign and yelled 'Victory!'

Honda was slightly blushing again. Jou looked in our direction and started smiling as us. I smiled back but Honda turned beet red.

Slowly, Honda stood up from his seat. He held his head down. "Where are you going?" I asked.

"Matte," I said as Honda left the classroom. Jou stopped gloating and wondered what was going on. Anzu gave me a 'what's going on look' and I just shrugged my shoulders. Bakura was still getting over his lost from Jou so he wasn't paying attention.

Honda's P.O.V

I left the classroom and went to the bathroom. It seemed like the only place that I was able to get to where I could try to calm down.

I looked in the mirror and let out a sigh. Why am I acting like this? Why did I start liking Jou all of a sudden? He's my best friends in the entire world and I have to start liking him. This is all confusing.

"Oi, Honda-kun," I turned around in surprise to see Jou.

"Hey," I replied. After what happened in class, that was all I can say. 'Hey'. I didn't even look him in the eyes when I said it.

"Are you okay?" Jou asked. "You freaked in class and left. I asked Yugi what happened but he said that I should talk to you about it"

I looked at Jou's face. His eyes were a shade of brown that reminded me of chocolate. Sometimes, when I see him, he reminded me of chocolate because he's real sweet. One day, I would like to sink my teeth in him.

"Earth to Honda!" Jou said.

That snapped me out of my trance and brought me back to reality. He approached me and put his hand on my shoulder.

"Are you okay? Is there something bothering you?" He asked.

I guess now I the best time to tell him, I thought.

"Well, the thing is that- I."

All of a sudden, the bathroom door swung open and three guys came in. They were upper classmen because they were talking about finals and preparations for graduation. One of them us a suspicious look but went on about his business.

Jou and I left the bathroom and headed back to class but Jou stopped me. I turned around to see what he wanted.

"What was it that you wanted to tell me, Honda?" He asked.

I focused my eyes towards the floor. My heart was beating like crazy because I was getting nervous. That always happens when I get nervous. My eye looked at Jou's face.

"Like I was trying to say earlier, I."

"Could you two get in here before class starts?!" Ms. Kojonuchi said in a loud tone.

I nearly fell because we were, again, interrupted.

When school was over with, I walked home by myself. This was one of those times when you just want to be alone to think about stuff. I was ready to tell Jou how I feel but we kept on getting interrupted. Yugi knows my secret but everyone else is clueless.

The next few weeks have been the same thing. There were times that I was ready to tell Jou my feeling but we would then get interrupted. I'm starting to think that maybe I wasn't destined to tell him.

Even if I do tell him, I don't know how he will react. He might be calm and tell me that he doesn't return my feeling or he might hate me because of who I am. He'll go tell the other and then everyone will hate me. The whole school will start gossiping about me than I'll be an outcast.

"At least Yugi will still be my friend." I said to myself.

I smiled slightly as I walked home. I started remembering when and why I started liking Jou. It was while we were at Duelist Kingdom. It was the fact that even though Jou was making mistakes and struggling as a duelist, there was a sense of pride that I felt when Jou was dueling. Jou was doing all this for his sister to pay for her operation. That showed me that Jou would do anything he can to help his friends and family out.

The thing that hit me the most was he lost to Yugi during the finals at the castle. When he lost that duel, he was still proud of himself that made it that far with the courage that he had and the support he got from his friends.

Without realizing it, I was standing in from of my building. I walked in and got to my door. I walked into my home and took my shoes off. The house was empty so I knew that my mom was still at work.

I got to my room and collapsed on my bed. This was day fell like hell. Maybe if I took a nap, I would feel better.

*Ring Ring*

I got up and ran to the phone and picked it up.

"Moshi Moshi," I said.

"Honda?" A voice said. It was a girl voice. I then recognized it as Anzu's voice. "Are you all right?"

I was confused when she asked me that question. "Why did you asked?"

"I don't know. I mean, for the past few weeks, you seemed to be real distant. When ever we all hang out, you really don't talk much anymore. I asked Yugi if he knew what was going on with you but he told me that I had to find out myself. That's why I called you."

I started to smile. Deep down inside of me, I started to feel a little bit better because if the fact that my friends still worry about me.

"Iie problem," I said, sounding cheerful. "Everything's fine. There nothing that you guy should worry about."

After assuring Anzu that everything was all right, she hung up the phone. I let out a huge sigh and went to bed to take a nap.
