Chapter 8: A Fear Not Yet Realized
It was about 7 when the group stopped at a set of benches to rest. They had ridden every ride at least twice already and were ready for a break and rest stops.
"My feet are tired." Jou whined as he plopped himself on one of the benches. "I can't even feel 'em!"
"I guess we'll have to go back to Yugi's then if you're tired." Something about Honda's mocking tone gave Jou enough energy to last a lifetime.
"No way man! I'm programmed to last all night long!" Jou stood up with a new fiery passion in his eyes.
"First of all, that didn't sound right. Second of all, we can't risk going on another ride with a long line." Honda looked at the many popular rides' lines before taking a sip of his cola.
"When does the firework show start? Soon I hope." Ryou had a grin on his face as he took another bite of his hotdog.
"Yeah, 7:30. That's why we can't go on any rides." Honda took another sip of his drink. "If we want to get good seats for the show, we have to make sure we aren't on any ride when it starts."
"For once he's actually making sense." Yugi cracked a grin at the fuming Honda. "What? It's true!"
Anzu hid a silent laugh to herself. Yugi IS right though. But Honda's face couldn't be any more priceless.
"Yeah, yeah." Honda's mood changed very suddenly with that last remark. Perhaps it was because it was true. "Why don't we just head over to a good spot?"
"Sure." Malik said, sighing in the process. "I really wanted to go on the Ferris wheel."
Everyone turned in his direction. He started to sweat and replied, "What?"
"The Ferris Wheel? Isn't that a little…kiddish?" Jou was surprised he'd even suggest such a thing.
"First of all 'kiddish' isn't a word. Second of all, I'm allowed to like the rides I like." Malik shrugged the rest of them off.
'Kiddish' isn't a word? I didn't know that. Anzu was probably the only one who wasn't thinking Malik was crazy to like such a kiddy ride. But then again, some of them like the Ferris wheel as well…only they weren't man enough to admit it.
"Are we going to ever go pick a spot for the show or are we going to stand around and gawk at the fact that I like the Ferris wheel?" Malik headed off in the direction of a clear space of grass, which would soon be crowded by the many people that are going to watch the show.
"I guess he's right." Ryou sighed. "I also like the Ferris wheel."
"Me too." The remaining three boys spoke at the same time.
"But he doesn't need to know dat." Jou grinned. "It'll be our little secret."
"Agreed." The three replied.
Anzu tugged on Yugi's sleeve. He turned to her with a grin. "Yeah?"
She replied using sign language. She had taught Yugi it upon his request.
Flashback
"Hey Anzu?" Yugi asked her as he leaned against the lockers waiting to walk her home. "How did ya communicate to other students at your old school?"
She turned to him as she closed her locker. She brought one hand up and said 'I used sign language' in sign language.
"You know sign language?" Yugi was amazed considering she had never tried to use it in class. "How come you don't use it while you're in class?"
She started to walk down the hall, Yugi following her. "Well?" He persisted.
'Well…one, I'd have to actually teach someone first and I don't feel like doing that cause it's annoying. And two…well I already covered that it's annoying.' She looked down at a confused Yugi. 'Um…Did I lose you along the way?'
Yugi put a smile on his face. "Could ya maybe teach me sign language?"
'Uh…sure. But I gave to warn ya…it's not easy.' They exited the school building and headed to her house.
End Flashback
Of course it took a while before Yugi could translate it on his own, but he didn't give up. Now she used sign language when talking to him in place of the annoying notebook she had to carry around.
'I'm going to the restroom. I'll be right back.'
"Okay, just meet us over there." He pointed to where Malik was waiting, "Hurry back so you don't miss the show."
'Okay.' She headed in the direction of where she thought the restrooms were.
