It was now October now, so this meant that it had officially been one month of school. To Anna, that seemed like one year. She would be lucky to survive the school year. Tonight was a Friday night, and she had nothing to do. She decided to just surf the internet. Just then the phone rang. She picked it up.

"Hello?" she asked.

"Hey Anna!" the hyperactive voice of Pilica squealed into the phone.

"Hello Pilica," Anna replied.

"Are you busy?" she asked. Anna let out a sigh of relief.

"I totally need something to do."

"Wanna come hang out with us?" she asked. Anna laughed happily.

"I'd love to!"

"Meet us down at the park," Pilica said into the phone before hanging up. Anna excitedly put her shoes on, grabbed a coat, and left.

Anna arrived at the park with all of her friends waiting. She walked over towards them and sat down at a table. Anna said "hi" to all of her friends but didn't recognize two of the people that were with them.

"Who are these two?" she asked curiously.

"Oh yeah," Jeanne said, "These are two of my friends. Anna, meet Ayumi and Yumi, twins, meet Anna." The three shook hands with each other. Anna cleared her throat. 'So they're twins.'

"So what are we going to be doing for tonight?" she asked. Her friends each gave a funny grin to each other. They turned back to Anna.

"Guy watch!" they all shouted at the same time. Anna sighed.

"Alright," she agreed. They all excitedly got up and walked down the street.

The first stop that night was at the café downtown. There were always cute guys down there, or at least in their experiences. They all took a seat down at one of the tables when a waitress came up to them.

"May I help you all?" she asked politely.

"No thanks," Pilica giggled, "we're not here to eat."

"Let me guess," The waitress groaned, "looking for guys?"

"Yep!" Pilica squealed. The waitress sighed.

"Someday," she warned, "you'll regret looking for guys instead of trying to succeed in school. That's what happened to one of my friends." Her friends laughed it off, but Anna knew the waitress was right. Even so, all guys were the same to Anna. They didn't care about you one bit. They just pretended to until they had sex with you, then they left you. That hadn't actually happened to her before, but it had happened in her family.

"There's a cute one," Jeanne murmured, pointing to a teenager of about eighteen- their age- with one spiked purple hair and a muscular body. All of her friends agreed with her, that is, except for Anna. Anna just sighed.

I have better things to do, she thought. Just then Jeanne got up.

"What are you doing?" Anna hissed.

"I'm going to talk to that cute guy over there," she hissed back. Anna forced a laugh.

"Jeanne Getting Rejected: Part One," she thought. She watched as Jeanne sat down next to him and watched as they began talking. It seemed to be going smooth. Just then Yumi moved over to Anna.

"This is ridiculous," Yumi whispered in Anna's ear. Anna nodded her head.

"I know." Anna still watched anyway. Jeanne's conversation lasted about another five minutes, and then she came back, a piece of paper in hand.

"What's that?" Tamao eagerly asked. Jeanne smiled.

"I got his number," she replied. The rest of her friends, except Yumi, Anna, and Ayumi, who was a silent one, screamed in excitement. Anna groaned.

"You all treat this like such a big deal," she groaned. "It's not that important." They didn't listen to her and continued talking. Anna decided to get up and leave. Yumi and Ayumi left with her.

As the threesome was walking down the street, Anna bumped into someone on accident. She looked up and saw a man, about 19 or 20, staring down at her. He held out his arm and she took it, just because. She stood up and continued walking down the street, the other two coming with her.

"Aren't you going to thank me?" the young man called out.

"No!" Anna called back. She ignored him and resumed walking down the street.

Jerk, she thought.

Later Anna ran into another young man that was the same age as the last one she ran into. She didn't fall down this time. She regained her balance and saw that the young man was flexing his muscles.

"I need a license for these guns," he said, referring to his arms. Anna burst out laughing.

"That has got to be the dumbest pickup line I have ever heard," she giggled.

Yet another jerk, she thought.

They didn't run into another guy the rest of the night, which was amazing because guys usually swarmed around Anna even when she set foot outside of her house. She decided that tonight was boring and decided to go back home. That's when she heard the sound of amazing guitar playing. She stopped.

That's got to be the best guitar playing I've ever heard, she thought. She wanted to see who was playing that, so she followed the sound.

She followed it and finally she reached Yoh's house, which was where it was loudest. She decided to head into his backyard. Ayumi and Yumi following, she went into Yoh's backyard.

Her jaw dropped. That was Yoh playing the guitar. He was out on the balcony of his "room." He had two other people who looked a lot like him on bass and drums. She stayed and listened. He wasn't like all of the other jerks who tried to impress her with all of the dramatic jumping and hopping effects that they added when the played guitar for her. He just played it regularly, and he played it like he was Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, or Eric Clapton. He was amazing. Not only that, he had an amazing voice. She recognized the song he was playing. Silent Weapon she thought.

He noticed her after the song ended and put his guitar inside. The other two also put their things inside. She decided she might as well compliment him on his ability. She climbed up the ladder and crawled into the tree house. He was standing there in the stairwell as if he expected her. The other two were standing around the room. It was strange, though. One looked exactly like Yoh. She could tell which one was Yoh, but it was still strange. The other one looked a lot like Yoh except a lot longer and had brown hair like him.

"So...what are you here for?" Yoh asked.

"I just want say you did a really good job," she complimented.

"Thank you," Yoh thanked.

"Trust me," she added, "I have seen a lot of guys try and play guitar for me, but you have to be the best. You're not like all those other jerks who add all of that jumping and hopping and try to impress me. You just played it like it was." Yoh laughed.

"I always thought trying to make it look dramatic looked stupid," he agreed. "I just go out there every Friday and play no matter what."

"Who are the other two?" Anna asked.

"I'm Hao, Yoh's brother," the one who looked like Yoh said.

"I'm Horo Horo," the blue haired one introduced, "I'm Pilica's brother. Remember?"

"Oh yeah! Cool!"

"Does anybody ever get you two mixed up?" she asked.

"Sometimes," Yoh answered. "Not usually." Anna opened her mouth to speak but was cut off.

"Anna!" the voice of Pilica shouted. Anna sighed.

"I've gotta run," Anna said. "I'll see you later."

"Yeah," Yoh said. They both sent each other dreamy looks, which was obviously a sign that they liked each other. Yoh still had that dreamy look on his face after she left.

"Too loud for a sister to have!" Horo Horo said.

"You okay bro?" Hao asked. Yoh shook his head, turning around to face his friends.

"Yeah," Yoh replied, "I'm fine." They both grinned at him.

"No you're not," Horo Horo said. "You like her, don't you?" Yoh struggled on words.

"So what if I do?" he asked.

"It means everything," Hao laughed, "this could mean love."

"She doesn't feel the same way about me!" he said.

"You don't know that Yoh," Hao said. Yoh had no choice to agree.

"I guess you're right."

"She's cute! But she's my sister's friend. Pilica would surely freak out!" Horo Horo said. Yoh and Hao frowned.
