~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alyssa picked it up, fearing the worst.
"Hey it's Carly."
A huge sigh of relief escaped from Alyssa's lungs.
"What was that for? Are you that upset I called while you were sleeping?"
"No buddy, it's that we were just talking about the possibility of you and Bakura being killed in an accident because of the rain and then us getting a call from the police informing us of tragedy. Then the phone rang..."
"Oh, well don't worry, cuz Bakura and I are safely at a hotel."
"WHAT?!"
"No, not like that. Get your mind out of the gutter! That's actually why I called. I didn't want to call my parents and tell them I was staying here with my boyfriend. So if they call will you tell them I'm at your house?"
"Only if you two don't get busy."
"OK, 'night."
"Goodnight Carly." Alyssa hung up, feeling drained now that the adrenaline had flowed out of her veins. She collapsed back into bed after telling the boys what the phone call had been about. They too had felt the irrational fear for their friends.
The next morning, Ryou and Yugi awoke to the doorbell's ring. Creeping around the still sleeping couple, they answered it. Standing in front of them was Bakura, holding up a positively queasy looking Carly.
"Sorry to wake you, but Carly was feeling really sick this morning."
Carly nodded. Unfortunately, this seemed to make her stomach curl, yet again, causing her to dash to the bathroom.
Violent barfing sounds floated through the house.
"See."
Yugi and Ryou shrugged and nodded in agreement. They left to go back to bed. Bakura and Carly crashed on the couch, with Carly having dry heaves every thirty minutes or so. She had nothing lift to come up.
Alyssa and Yami woke up some time later, wondered into the kitchen with out even opening their eyes, and started 'rustling up some breakfast.'
Bakura saw then, and wished them good morning.
"Hey what are you doing here? We thought that you were staying the night at a hotel."
"Well Yami, we did, but this morning Carly started to intensely throw up. I figured the best place for her to be would be surrounded by her friends, except you lazy bums were sleeping, so we've just been sitting here on the couch making bathroom runs every half hour ever since."
"Lazy?! It's only 9 o'clock in the morning on a weekend none the less. That's too early to be awake anyway." Alyssa yawned as if to prove her point. "Oh yeah." Yami get ready, we have dancing lessons in an hour."
"We have dancing lessons?! When did this occur?" Yami asked, having no previous knowledge of any classes.
"Because prom's coming up-"
"That's five months away!"
"You can't learn to dance over night you know."
"Especially with you two left feet," Yami snickered.
"Exactly why we are taking these lessons."
"Darn." They left.
"Carly don't you think that you should see a doctor? You've been sick for over a week."
"Only if I don't feel better tomorrow morning. After all, flu season is almost here, and I'm only sick in the morning," Carly reasoned.
"OK. Do you want breakfast then?"
"Sure. It should be fine with my stomach by now."
As Carly was munching on her toast- the only food that didn't nauseate her- she began thinking about reasons why she would love to be male. The stomach pains she had been suffering in the last week. And thinking of that, a certain feminine enemy hadn't visited in over a month. In fact, a week late- when her morning illness had begun. Carly winced slightly at the thought, glaring heavily at Bakura's back. /What had he done in to her in her sleep?!/ Deciding she needed to talk to Alyssa, Carly reached for the phone. /Oh wait, she's at dancing lessons./
Carly was starting to sweat from her sudden train of thought.
"Bakura, I'm going to bed," Carly, rather shortly, informed him. She huffed back to Alyssa's bedroom and slammed the door, leaving Bakura standing in the kitchen confused. Not ten seconds later, Ryou and Yugi were kicked out, looking like they had just been woken up and kicked out of their beds. Oh wait, they had been.
Bakura was wondering what was wrong, as Carly was obviously upset with him. He hadn't said anything, so that wasn't the source of the problem. Nor had he knowingly ignored her. He was utterly befuddled. Bakura couldn't even ask Yugi or Ryou for their opinions, as they had collapsed on the couches, asleep before they hit the pillows.
Alyssa and Yami arrived home to find Bakura sitting sullenly on a chair. They inquired where the other three residents were and found out Yugi and Ryou had gone out and Carly fuming in Alyssa's bedroom.
"Why is she mad at you?" Yami asked.
"I have no idea. I didn't say anything, nor did I ignore her at all. I was just finishing cooking breakfast, when she stomped to Alyssa's room and slammed the door."
While Yami and Bakura discussed what the problem could possibly be, Alyssa decided to go directly to the source and ask Carly.
"Hey man," Alyssa walked into the room. Upon seeing Carly's upset she immediately sat on the bed and tried to comfort her friend. "What's wrong."
"Nothing." Alyssa rolled her eyes Carly's obvious lie. "Oh fine, well you see, I think... I'm...."
"What?" Alyssa pressed.
"Pregnant."

Cassandra Pegasus- Wouldn't we all like that kind of treatment every day. But alas.. The smells are very true and you are wise to avoid them.
Cassie- Thank you. Here you go.
Sylvyrfyre- Apparently you are right. I did notice this chapter that I (THANKFULLY!) Got more than I expected. And no homework this week- spring break baby! Actually I have a project due, but I won't mention that.
Arinell- Glad you have fun at your party. Hopefully it didn't lead to any illegal or immoral activities. :) It's OK, I won't
kanikameskhenet- You're weird. I can't imagine liking storms. Tho they be cool to listen to, I'd rather listen to a CD recording:) Is this soon enough?
Camarao- Same here I love the game! I have it for playstation2 and it rocks my socks! Literally, my socks move around a lot. :D What level are you on?
Anime-Blade- It's great to know you care more about the secondary characters than the main ones:) But as you can see they are not dead. Why do you write reviews like a conversation?
Kese- Nice, I've done that too at my friend's house. It took forever to realize that ctrl is a great button.
Setosangel529- Now you know. And thanks, I agree.
Yamijennimoto- It's good to know that you are guessing and not mindlessly reading:) Thank you very much! I've never had anyone say that to me.
