Chapter 1: Do I Know You?
The alarm clock annoyingly beeped 7:00am. With her eyes still closed, Ayah sleepily rolled onto her side and smacked the snooze button. She moaned and opened her eyes slightly to see the clock. Suddenly, she opened her eyes wide, "7:45! Nooo! I'm late!" Ayah sprang from her bed and threw on her school uniform, consisting of a white blouse with a pink vest, a very obnoxious blue bow, and a short blue skirt. Geez. The skirt is awfully short. She though to herself. She snatched her bookbag off the hook in the main room as she exited her apartment.
Just as she stepped out into the hallway, a cute, white-haired boy stepped out from the next door. "Hi!" she smiled and waved as he passed her. "Hello, new neighbor! Sorry I can't chat! I'm late for school! he said as he hurried down the hall. In a polite manner, he raised his hand in a gesture of waving back.
Maybe he goes to the same school I do. Ayah thought. She rushed out of the building to her new school as fast as her legs would carry her.
She paused at the entrance of Domino High. Ahhhh! I'm too scared to go in! What if I get lost! What if people hate me! A teacher saw her standing there frightened, "Are you a new student?" "Y-yes." Ayah stuttered and turned nervously toward the teacher. "Please follow me." the teacher replied. Ayah followed the teacher cautiously, looking around. taking in her new surroundings.
A girl ran into the classroom shouting, "Guess what!? We have a new girl coming to our class! Joey jumped from his seat, "Is she hot?!" "Joey, sit down! I don't think the teacher will be happy seeing you standing on your desk like a hungry dog!" Tea shouted at him. He frowned and sat down grumbling.
Everyone perked up and turned their attention to the front of the classroom when their teacher walked in with Ayah behind him. She stood at the front of the room, her chestnut-brown hair trailing down her back and her chocolate eyes staring at the floor. She glanced up every now and then only to see every eye upon her. She shuffled her feet nervously and wished she could squish up into a mouse hole to hide. "This is Ayah…um…what is your last name?" the teacher asked her. "I don't have one that I know of." she said quietly and with some embarrassment. "Please go take your seat in front of Bakura. Bakura, would you raise your hand so she knows who you are." Bakura raised his hand, never taking his eyes off the female walking toward him. "She's the girl that lives next door to me." he whispered to Joey.
Ayah sat down in front of Bakura. She recognized him from earlier this morning and made her feel a little bit better. Joey leaned diagonally over to her. "He-l-lo gorgeous!" "Joey! Don't scare her!" Tea snapped at him. "Hey! I just was giving her a compliment and saying hello! Geez!" He leaned back into his chair and crossed his arms over his chest.
"Would you like to join us at lunch?" Yugi asked Ayah. "O-ok." Ayah said trying to work out the stuttering.
::::::::A few hours later::::::::
Ayah came through the lunch line and paused looking around for her new friends. Bakura was right behind her. He didn't see Ayah and bumped into her. "Ooh! I'm so sorry!" he said. Feeling her fear finally go to rest, she smiled at him, "Its ok. I just looking for you and the others." A stray thought passed through her mind as she smiled, What a firm chest he has! Bakura blushed, "They're over here." he said nervously and quickly took her to join the group.
Ayah sat between Yugi and Bakura. "Tristen! I told you to scoot over and make room her!" Joey shouted pushing Tristen away. "Hey! Your gonna make me fall of the seat! And you never told me to scoot over because you had your mouth full of french fries!" Tea gave them the evil eye and turned sweetly toward Ayah. "Would you like to come to the beach with us after school?" she asked. "Yes, I'd love to!" Ayah replied excitedly. Tea and Yugi noticed Bakura's nervous glances at the female sitting beside him. "Bakura, you'll be there too. Won't you?" Yugi asked. "What?" Bakura looked confused. His attention had been focused elsewhere. "You're coming to the beach with us?" Yugi asked again. "Sorry! Yes, I'm coming." he answered. "Would you mind bringing Ayah with you since you two live next door to each other?" Tea asked. "I don't mind." Bakura said turning his attention back to Ayah. "Wear a bikini!" Joey shouted across the table. He rested his chin in his hand and looked at Ayah suggestively. He smirked a raised his eyebrows up and down. She looked questioningly at him and smiled nervously. She turned to look at Bakura and was surprised to see his usually soft face looking threateningly at Joey. Back off, food brain! She belongs to me! Yami Bakura's voice sounded in Bakura's head.
Bakura shut his eyes tightly and raised his hands to his head. "Bakura, are you all right?" Ayah asked concerned. "What happened?" said Joey. "I'm fine. I just need to take something for my headache that's all." Bakura said getting up. "I'll knock on your door after school, Ayah, to take you to the beach." He left to put away his tray. "I worry about that guy. Having an evil spirit within you isn't fun." Tea said. Ayah looked an her questioningly, "Evil spirit!?" "Um…we can explain it to you later. Long story." Tea said.
Ayah sat in a comfy chair in her living room waiting for Bakura to take her to the beach. She was able to make it through the rest of the school day thanks to her new friends. Although her mind was on Bakura and what Tea had said about him. That threatening look he gave Joey at lunch, was that the evil spirit peeping through? A serious look came over her face, if that evil spirit shows himself, I'll...I'll...um...I don't want to hurt Bakura...too bad...I'll stomp on his foot and pull his ear... A knock on the door startled her. "Bakura?" she called. "Yes. It's me. Are you ready?" he answered. Ayah jumped from her seat and opened the door and almost fell down dead.
Bakura caught her before she hit the ground. Wow...he's...he's...soft and sooo warm! she though blushing. Her arm brushed against his pale chest. "Are you ok?" Bakura asked politely. Ayah stood taking another look at him, this time without falling on the ground. He was wearing a white beach towel around his neck, blue swim shorts and sandals. "Yes. Sorry. Just caught me by surprise." she smiled feeling very embarrassed. Ayah wore a stunning, one-piece, black swimsuit and her leopard-print flip-flops.
"Didn't want to go with what Joey suggested?" Bakura smirked. He seems different all of a sudden. Did I miss something? Ayah thought suspiciously. "I do not wish to expose myself that much in public." she stated. "Did the sides of your hair stick out like that before, because I don't recall it?" she asked. Yami Bakura tugged on his 'devil horns.' "Yes, they were down before, but I can never put enough hair gel in to keep them down."
"Shall I escort you to the beach now, beautiful? Don't want to keep the others waiting." A sexy grin crossed his face as he held out is arm for her to grab. He did not want her to notice anymore changes, not yet anyway. She looked cock eyed at him, "Beautiful?" "What? You don't like being called beautiful?" he asked.
A distant memory swept over her. She heard a man's voice, Bakura's voice, calling her beautiful. "Your voice sounds different, Bakura." She looked confused and dazzled. "My voice always sounds like this. Come on." The evil spirit idea surfaced in her mind, but she quickly disregarded it as silly. She took his arm, He's more muscular than I thought!" As they walked together to the beach, she saw the change in his eyes. His eyes seem strangely familiar to me. I feel charmed by him or was I already charmed by him before?
