Now on with the story!
Entering into the hall, Tea sensed a grave mist clouded over her body and managed a stiff tremble. The tip of her eyes caught Kaiba smirking and she let a snarl crackling through her mouth. The hall was queerly still, not a sight of another human being. She pranced forward in tactful steps and peeked through the window into the main office. There she saw the white haired boy slinked down lazily in the chair sat close to the desk. His shoulder sagged, expression bleak. She coughed slightly trying to get his attention. He looked up acutely at her image through the glass and snorted monstrously. Slowly, he trekked to her and opened the door. His impish face eyed her playfully as a seductive smirk sneaked upon his clipped lips.
Remained silent, Tea stepped inside and shivered inwardly. Kaiba followed through a safe distance. She let her intent look traveled to his face.
"So? What now?" Tea braked in a gruff tone.
Ignoring her weariness, he grinned. "Anxious to get to class."
Tea shoved a dry nod. "Shouldn't you be at class at a time like this?"
A relish look smothered cross his face and he shrugged sullenly. "I can be wherever I want to be at this time." He intoned in a feverish voice.
"I see." She replied in a needling tone. "How come?" An agonizing scowl rammed over her forehead at his proud declare.
"Cuz my parents just happened to be friends with the principle of this school." He smiled.
Tea pouted, and stared at him through keen eyes.
"So what might he be?" He asked, his finger nudging at the tall slim figure.
"Seto Kaiba." Tea responded coldly.
Kaiba chuckled evilly at her stiff tone, and cast his gaze upon Bakura.
"And he is here because?" He added absently, a guttural attitude glide over his voice.
Tea was slightly taken back by his defensiveness but decided to let it slip. "He saved me the other day."
Bakura grimaced sourly. "I see,"
"Can I go to class now?"
"No, not yet, what relationship are you in with him?" He burst out, seized with sheer dignity.
Speechless, Tea scrambled a few step back and tried to recover her wild look. Feeling her skin crawl, she bounced back bluntly. "Um friends I think."
Kaiba sneered savagely and lurched a sly look toward her. Tea shrugged and ignored it.
Bakura scanned the two figure and at their sheepish face. Slowly it seemed a shade of red seeped through the brunette's face. His eyes fixed upon her look as a clench of jealousy gripped his neck, and he felt hot drums stirred inside him. She is blushing for him?! The girl is actually blushing for someone and not staring with her cold glares! A scratchy voice shouted in his mind. His graze moved to the tall figure and took a while to realize he is sniggering.
Feeling the presence of spider feet crawling near his chest, he frowned petulantly. This is strange. Girls usually fight over him, not the other way around. But somehow he couldn't stand the girl flying fist at him is actually feeling bashful toward someone else! Coldness washed over him and right there and now, he felt the need to make a different and felt a surge of determination bolting down his body. Slowly, he relaxed and faced them with a croaky look.
Tea blinked at him blankly and chewed her lips. "May I leave now?"
Completely caught off guard, Bakura ventured a few step closer and clasped her hand. His other finger wiggled accusingly at Kaiba.
"He may leave, you, I have something I would like to share with alone." He gagged in a husky voice. Then he let his facial look strained on the brunette who is currently fidgeting to get free. Her flailing arms elbowed him, but he handled her no problem, his fingers tightly wrapped over hers.
Kaiba gleamed at them and shook his head mildly. "I'll pick you up at four." He informed simply and headed for the door, slamming it after him.
Making sure he is entirely out of sight, Bakura advanced to the door and checked it is locked. Nodding gratifyingly, he let go of her hand and grinned at her limp look.
Just when he eyed her motive of reaching the door, he extended his arm and lied before her path. "Not so fast."
"What do you want?" Her blazing eyes locked up to his, and a grunt seeped through her clenched teeth.
Giving her a serene smile. "Nothing much."
Tea glared at him skeptically and tiptoed a few feet away. Bakura smirked at this.
"You afraid of me?"
Shook her head. "No."
"Oh yea?" He fretted. "You don't seem to like boys, eh?"
Again, she shook her head tentatively.
"Why not? You know when most people come to a new school, they tend to blend in and not stay out."
"I told you, I'm not most people." She heaped back, her voice harsh and stiff.
Squinting at her collected face, he laughed out loud. "I know, but I expect a more logical explanation."
Brooding, Tea glared at him with an enraged look.
"Mad already?" he questioned.
Her deranged look stretched further. "What is your purpose in knowing?"
"Curiosity I suppose." He grinned merely.
"Okay then." His meek look proved to her that he held no devilish meanings.
"I don't want to come to this school in the first place. I don't like you rich kids and I don't want to fit in with you guys. My mom think since this school cost more, it ought to be better. But you want to know what I think; I think the money is going to waste. All you people focus on is what you wear, what car you drive, what type of people you are dating. I'm not like that, and I don't ever want to be influenced and become one of you. So I don't see what is wrong with staying out, I like it better that way. At least I can behave the way I wanted to be, and not just go with the crowd."
After explaining, she looked up wryly at his penetrated face fixed on her. Till now, he had made no motive in interrupting or making filthy comments and she was utterly surprised. Maybe he does have a sense of courtesy.
A stiff grin pasted on his face and he shifted in his seat. "You don't like the school do you?"
"No."
"What if not all people are like how you described?" he insisted.
"I doubt it, well if there is any, I'm not having any luck finding them." She groaned sulkily.
"What about the one standing right before you?"
She jerked her head and a mocking fury sparkled in her eyes. "Yea right,"
"I'm serious." He regarded an admonishing look, and faced her with deep calm.
Tea blinked. "Oh,"
His look dropped its intensity and an eerie sorrow rushed in his eyes. "You know? I never met a person who is as stubborn as you and have such a strong opinion of yourself." He smirked.
Tea felt the urge to fight back and her mouth popped open but she was cut off with his humble tone.
"And that is suppose to be a compliment."
Grudgingly, she closed her mouth and looked away.
Bakura examined her face, no hints of blithe. He sank in his seat.
After a momentary pause, Tea yanked her glimpse upon him and a small smile piled over her lips. "Thank you." She blabbered and quickly looked away.
Wide eyes, his mouth stung open. He couldn't resist the shock. He eyed her somewhat bashful face and a pointlessly merry smile reached to his eyes.
He opened his mouth to return her but was held back by a loud knock on the door. Annoyed, he clambered to his feet and flew the door open. Three faces popped up and chirped at him.
"Hey! Wanna tag along for another basketball game?" Malik beamed.
"No, I have some business I have to do first."
Yami gawked at him. "Yea right, like what?"
"Like taking care of the brunette." He replied.
Their eyes searched and stilled on the brunette well seated on the chair near the wall. And a wide smile draped on their face.
"What is de problem den!" Joey yelped, stepping into the room with the others following.
"Hey Tea!" Malik greeted her warmly.
Tea returned him with a limp nod.
"So? I see Bakura is getting on your nerve again eh?" Yami remarked.
Right after the sentence, a fist flung onto his shoulder and forced him away. "Watch it,"
The others laughed. "So ya still don't wanna hang out?" Joey asked glossily.
Tea was about to answer when she sensed Bakura's gaze fallen on her. His graze was dry but a hint of desire deposited in them.
"It's okay, no need to push her."
Tea stiffened at Bakura's straight face. The others only frowned quizzically.
A gloomy look fell upon her face. "It's worth a try."
Their graze instantly swept over to her mere voice.
"You serious?" A screech escaped from Malik.
Tea nodded but suddenly replaced with a malicious look. "Yea but that doesn't give you the chance to take an advantage of me, got that!" she warned them.
"No advantage, we promise." Yami agreed.
"So ya in for some games?" Joey flew his fist in the air and gestured in a tough position.
Tea giggled stifling at this and nodded. "Okay."
One by one, the guys left the room staked with triumphant looks. Usually it is a quite simple task to ask girls to hang out, but not with this one.
Just when Tea was about to follow after them, he felt a hand landed on her shoulder.
"What happened to change your attitude?"
She giggled silently. "I just thought I give it a try, I mean you did say you are different."
Bakura shook his head mildly. "I see, well then now I just have to prove it, right?"
"Yes." Came the prompt answer.
Locking eyes with her, he was taken back to see a streak of warmth pouring out of her eyes. It was cherishing, and Bakura vowed to get more of it. Without thinking twice, he linked arms with her and pulled her through the door.
Awkwardly, Tea slipped her hands away and mumbled in a slurred tone. "Not yet,"
He nodded clumsily, and felt his inside banging. He is so used to getting to girls fast, this time he has to watch out or this chance is ought to slip from his hand.
"Let's go."
"Okay."
Keeping a good distance still, Tea tagged along with him to the nearby court where an overwhelmed game was been held.
Crooning, Tea kept her graze ahead till she felt a solid item slammed past her and resulted her in landing gruffly onto the floor.
Wincing, she tilted to a sat and looked at the figure she just rammed into.
Utterly shocked, she stammered. "Y-yugi?"
As you see, I had point out something was wrong with Yugi in the second chap, yup now he is coming in. Ya wanna know what happens next? REVIEW!!! . oh and keep voting if you hadn't, okay I'm out!
