Last night I just wanted to have fun To go out with my frinds I took my dad's car I never thought he would find out But I crashed in a wall Man I'm dead
Jounouchi grabbed the steering wheel eagerly and looked out of the windscreen as the nearby buildings flashed by and became all but blurs in the distance. The engine rose and fell as he switched gears and the pedals beneath his feet seemed to become part of the soles off his shoes...
"Get out of my seat Jou." Honda's voice sounded like the screech of brakes as Jounouchi was brought crashing down to reality. He could almost smell burrning rubber. Just as well the car wasn't actually moving. Honda jangled the keys in his pocket, then took them out and jangled them up again.
"Aw, c'mon! let me drive! please? Honda! It's been my lifelong dream to drive a Honda, Honda!"
"You've been waiting a long time to say that to me, haven't you." Honda's voice dripped with sarcasm.
"NO! please, those keys look like gold to me..." Jounouchi drooled to show his point, but Honda wasn't impressed.
"Move your butt." Jounouchi groaned and climbed over the gears to the passenger seat. "If anything happens to this car I'll be scrubbing floors for a month."
"I thought your dad said you couldn't borrow it, let alone threaten you." Honda looked at his blonde friend gravely.
"And you'll be scrubbing them with me." Jounouchi shut up. he knew when Honda was serious. Honda started the engine and looked behind him as he started to pull out of the driveway. "Okay, it's clear... so I guess that means we can go! let's move!" He gripped the wheel and carefully pushed his foot down. The sound of the engine grating made both boys wince and cover their ears and the car shuddered violently.
"Honda! take the breaks off!" Jounouchi wailed. Honda adjusted the handbreak and the car suddenly shot backwards at high speed. The two freinds screamed and Honda slammed the break on again... but it was too late.
The car was a mess. Honda wailed and buried his face in his hands, pounding his left fist against the garage wall.
"I'M DEAD!" he yelled. Jounouchi scratched his head and straitened up the bent ariel... and winced as it snapped off in his fingers. Honda glared. "Leave it. perhaps if we just... forget... the car will cease to exist... and my dad will never find out..." Jounouchi smacked the brunette across the back of the head. "ouch! okay, you are right." he looked at the car again. "there's only one thing to do." Jounouchi nodded.
"I'm with you, bro. your da-" there was a faint click and a spark of light.
"Burn it."
I guess it's no use I'm screwing up every little thing I ever try to do I was born to lose.
yeah yeah yeah yeah!
"You lose." Yuugi grinned apologetically at Jounouchi and scooped his cards together back into his deck. "Your trap was good, just-" Jounouchi groaned and scratched yet another mark onto the desk with his fingernail.
"Not good enough." He finished sadly. "Perhaps it's destined that I never win."
God must hate me he cursed me for eternity God must hate me maybe you should pray for me I'm breaking down and you can't save me I'm stuck in hell and I wanna go home
Last night I had to study for a test I forgot Man I'm dead And now my brain is bursting right out of my head I can't think I can't breathe Once again
Anzu looked at the blackboard before her in disbelief. She then blinked and covered her eyes. When she opened them again, the big blue letters were still there, surrounded by squiggles and lines the teacher must have added for emphasis.
"TEST TODAY! BIG TEST TODAY! DO NOT FORGET! THIS TEST IS TODAY! LOOK ABOVE FOR PROOF!"
and above those big blue letters with squiggles for emphasis
"DON'T FOGET THE TEST TOMORROW! THERE IS A BIG TEST TOMORROW! FORGET AND YOU WILL FAIL!"
those words were also blue, but, Anzu notices, the squiggles around them were a slightly different shade of red. Perhaps she could use them as part of her excuse!
I guess it's no use I'm screwing up every little thing I try to do I was born to lose Yeah yeah yeah yeah!
"I LOST AGAIN!" Jounouchi groaned and slapped his forehead against the desktop. "how can I keep losing? Every time. EVERY TIME!" He clutched his head comically. Yuugi grinned slightly. "Someone up there really has it in for me." Jou moaned. Anzu stomped in, her books under her arm and a huge scowl on her face. "Gee, what's with the look? You got a hangover or something?"
"No, even worse! I got an F!" Anzu wailed and burst into tears. "Our Teacher didn't even listen to my excuse, he just gave me a big F!" Behind her, Honda sneaked through the door, obviously trying not to be noticed. Around his waist was an apron; the sort that a housewife would wear in a 60's comedy.
"Hey, Honda! what's with the apron?"
God must hate me he cursed me for eternity God must hate me maybe you should pray for me I'm breaking down and you can't save me I'm stuck in hell and I wanna go home
"I..." Honda looked down and sighed. "My dad was so angry about me crushing the car... and scorching the upholstery... And trying to hide it by covering it with leaves... He organised for me to scrub floors HERE as well as at home. And the Janitor only had this old thing to cover my uniform." Anzu stopped sobbing into her exan paper long enough to look up and giggle.
"You look really pretty Honda!"
"Shut UP!" Honda looked close to tears himself. "My hands and knees are killing me!" Jounouchi looked at Yuugi for a while. Finally he nodded.
"Ok, perhaps my life isn't so bad after all." He mused. "Or maybe it is, but it is for everyone else too." Honda and Anzu glowered.
"Jou, do us a favor, and never try the psychological talk again."
So what in the world am I supposed to do?
I never did anything to you!
So can't you find something else to do?
God must hate me I wanna go home!
