*****CONTEST ALERT*****
The contest is I want someone to draw me (Alyssa) anime style (use the description that is in the story) or a scene from the story (preferably w/ me in it). The prize, for the winner, is that you get to be in my story (yeah for you all that want to be in the story). I really want a picture as my drawing skills are really sad so that is why you also get to pick your role (good or evil) and if you want to be dating (or married) to someone (even Marik/Malik). Do not worry the other characters in the show will be coming in around December (in the story not of the real year). And the contest is open to anyone with an e-mail address and u can enter however many times you want.

During lunch that day the girls and guys were independently discussing the morning's events.
"So he FINALLY asked you?" Hannah was elated for Alyssa. Yugi had already asked Hannah to the dance.
"Yep." Alyssa smiled in remembrance.
"How could you not have heard her from school? She screamed so loud that I am surprised she did not blow Yami's eardrums. Then she squeezed Yami so hard in a hug he has a couple of ribs that are undoubtedly poking his lungs," Carly elaborated.
"Hehe, I guess so………" Alyssa then changed the subject.
At the guys table the very same topic was being discussed.
"So what'd she say?" Frazier asked Yami. No one had to ask who 'she' was.
"She said yes," Yami replied simply.
"She didn't just say yes. She almost squeezed Yami to death," Bakura corrected.
"What can I say, I guess I'm just too attractive." Yami sent the table into peals of laughter.
Over the next week the threats to Nick's soul and life lessened considerably due to Yami's occupation with Alyssa. All though the poor teenager Alyssa and Yami were getting a quote from for yearbook got quite a scare when Yami started ranting about shredding Nick's soul in the Shadow Realm. Alyssa had made a mental note to have Ryou erase the kid's memory which the tomb robber's reincarnation later honored.
Thankfully, the school gave the students the dance day off. At least Alyssa was very thankful for the day off. Earlier she had kicked the guys out of the house so she could 'peacefully' decide what to wear with Carly's help. The process was anything but peaceful though.
Clothes were strewn all over the room as Carly and Alyssa looked through Alyssa's closet for the perfect outfit. Carly had found her out fit already. It was a purple and red tye dye halter-top and a tight pair of stretch jeans with cat whiskers. To complete the look Carly had a blue and tan beach bum hat and a silver belly chain with little hearts on the one inch of stomach that showed.
"Just pick something already!" Carly exclaimed after an hour and a half of looking and endless outfits.
While Carly chose the conservative beach bum look Alyssa, when she finally decided on a n outfit, chose the sexy clubber look. Her cut off mini skirt fit her like a second skin. The super low-rise skirt stopped right where her butt ended and not a centimeter farther. Alyssa's jet-black tube top left a full nine inches of flat, tan stomach show as well a large amount of cleavage. Alyssa adorned a silver belt that had star holes cut into it. Her hair was in a ponytail with ringlets framing her face.
"How do I look," Alyssa asked Carly.
"Like you're ready to have Yami pull you into a closet and hump you," Carly said with mock seriousness. Seeing the death scowl on Alyssa's face, she kept talking. "Just kidding, geez no need to kill me. You look great. All though Yami will need a cold shower when he sees you."
At 5:30, while the girls were putting on each other's make-up, the guys arrived home. Exactly when the females were done with their make-up, the males walked into the room. While Yugi and Ryou kept walking normally, Yami and Bakura practically fainted on their feet.
/I'm glad dresses weren't required for this dance/ Yami thought.
"Ready to go ladies?" Bakura asked, extending his arm to Carly. Yami was grateful that Bakura had said something because Yami's own mind was wiped blank by the sight of so much skin on Alyssa.
"Bakura, it's only 5:35 we can't leave yet. Besides I still need to shower," Yami 'chided' him.
Yami quickly turned the water on the coldest it would go. He jumped in. All though his skin crawled at the ice like water, Yami was thankful for the relief the freezing water was bringing him. Unfortunately, the ex-Pharaoh was having the hardest time getting the mental picture of the barely clad Alyssa out of his thoughts.
"I told you so," Carly whispered to Alyssa.
"Oh shut up," Alyssa whispered back, rolling her eyes.
Finally every one was ready and they all crammed into Carly's convertible. (top up, as to preserve the girls' hair.)
"Yami your hip and shoulder are hitting me!"
"So, you know you like it"
"True………but you have bones, ya know."
Yami shifted so his arm was up on the back of the seat. "Better, Alyssa?"
"Much."
"Well, the gym defiantly looks different than usual," Yugi noted. Stars were hung from the ceiling and stuck on the walls. Navy blue wrapping paper stuff, cut into strings were hung here and there. The lights in the gym had been dimmed enough to give the room a romantic mood, but not enough to obscure one's vision.
"Let the dancing begin!" the DJ announced while he started the first song of the night, Get Busy but Sean Paul.
"I LOVE this song!" Carly shouted over the music. Immediately she, Alyssa, Hannah, and a bunch of their friends started booty dancing.
"Bakura's the pimp!" Jackie yelled, pulling Bakura into the circle of booty dancing girls.
"No he's not!" Carly returned, pulling Bakura right back out of the circle.
"Fine, Frazier is then," Jackie called, pulling Frazier into the circle. All the while the music blasted out at levels way too loud to be healthy for one's eardrums. The foreign exchange students stood to the side , not knowing what to do with themselves while the women shook their butts around.
When get busy ended Alyssa walked over to Yami. "Next danceable song I'm teaching you how to freak dance or at least booty," she told him, smiling at the thought. Then Alyssa turned to jam to Sk8er Boi by Avril Lavigne with Renee and Caity with their own special dance they had made up during eighth grade. About three minutes later Sk8er Boi ended and the DJ decided to put on the first slow song of the night- If You're Not the One by Daniel Benningfield.
Alyssa felt a tap on her shoulder and spun around on her heel into Yami's waiting arms. "May I have this dance?" he asked, although they both knew that the answer was yes. Alyssa wound her arms around Yami's neck and he cupped his hands on Alyssa's lower back, pulling her close.
iIf you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at alli
Alyssa smiled when the lyrics of the song sank into her consciousness. All though she had only known Yami for a month or two, Alyssa felt as if she had known him forever.
iI never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life withi
As if the one thing she had been unconsciously searching for her whole life had showed up, a weight Alyssa had never noticed before had been lifted off her shoulders.
iI don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?i
Yami was caught off guard by how much the song actually portrayed his feelings, thoughts, and dreams. It truly startled him how one song captured all of his emotions.
iI don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this much is true
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life
I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
'Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
'Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side
I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that Ii
As the song ended Alyssa looked up and Yami looked down, both smiling continently at each other. Slowly their faces and lips moved closer and closer until………
