"C'mon! We're going to be late," yelled Lana.
"I should be saying the same for you, Ana-san! It's you're fault we're going to be late now!" Stori shouted up at Lana.
"It is not! And I can't help it if I'm a heavy sleeper," she cried as she turned the corner and hurriedly ran for Domino High School.
Yeah what ever! Stori thought as they zipped through the school's front gates.
"Huff…huff…huff" Stori leaned forward and supported her upper body with her knees.
"Made it!" Lana said standing up. Indeed, they had made it. Right as soon as they got in the doors, the bell rang and the doors locked behind them.
"Lucky huh?" Lana said turning to Stori, who was still panting and resting her hands on her knees. Stori stood to her full height and made a soft giggle/panting sound.
"Just barely."
Knock! Knock! Knock! Seto's eyes lifted from the book he was reading to the classroom door as the teacher, Mr. Yamatou, walked over to it and opened it fully: revealing a rather embarrassed looking Stori with a note and a nervous smile on her face.
Seto rolled his eyes and turned back to his book. The book was nothing special, and not at all that interesting, but he only read it for the mystery. Seto was a big mystery/adventure fan. But his absolute favorite type of genera was mystery, hands down. He loved it when the story got so suspenseful that he himself was on the edge of his seat. It was fun to let that happen sometimes.
While Seto sat in his seat reading his book, Stori settled herself in her seat beside him. She had the worst time trying to get to sleep last night. It had taken her forever and a day to finally let sleep over come her. She was too exhausted to want to do math.
She sighed, Hopefully, Mr. Yamatou will actually let us do the work at our desk and not up at the board, Stori thought as she groaned and got out a peace of paper.
She couldn't wait till winter break came along. She was so ready to get out of school. She had so much she had planed to do, and yet the list of ideas that she could do still wasn't filled.
Stori's list of things to do over winter break:
Go sledding with friends.
Give snow boarding a try.
Don't get sick
Go back home and visit friends
Get homework done on the first night and not the last minute --;
Convince mom and family to let her be alone this time and not be followed all over the place --;
And last but certainly not least, 7) PRACTICE! REGUARDLESS OF THE WEATHER!
Stori smirked at this. True, she was very excited about that last one, but a few of them she was kind of positive she wouldn't be able to get them done, like numbers: 3, 4, and 5 for instance.
Yeah, I'm really sure I wont be able to get those things done, especially 4, that's cost too much money, and mom would never agree, she thought as she sighed again, turning over the paper in front of her and starting to doodle on it.
Before she knew it she had gotten herself into a slight drawing fit. Instead of doodling she was now drawing herself and her friends out in the snow. It wasn't the best, that was for sure, and the characters didn't look exactly like the actually people, but that was okay, as long as she had something to get her mind off of school and math.
After just completing the final details of Lana, a note suddenly appeared on her desk. Stori blushed with embarrassment and open the note slow, so as not to attract attention.
It read:
You really should try to pay attention instead of drawing pictures.
Just then Stori recognized the neat, cursive handwriting. She turned her head and sneered at Seto, who was acting as though he hadn't done anything
Why does he care? He's not paying attention either! She thought as she got her pen out and also wrote on the note replying:
You're not doing any better yourself Mr. Hot Shot!
She folded it back up and flicked it back to Seto, who just let his hand reach out slowly and grab it, though his eyes where still glued to the book. She turned back to her drawings.
Just then, as she started on Joey, another note dropped on her desk. This time it had taken her by surprise and she was a little shaken when it suddenly landed on her hand.
It said:
Why should I? I already know this stuff, unlike you. That I'm sure of!
Stori let her mouth drop slightly and let her eyebrows furrow together.
She wrote back saying:
Jack assThis time she was going to ignore him if he replied back. But just as she flicked it back to him, another one appeared on her desk, this time it came from behind her. She blinked at it and let her eyes glaze over before she picked it up and read:
Kaiba bothering you?Stori sweat dropped. Tea sat behind her. She didn't even bother to reply to this one, she just bent over her desk and rested her head on her desk and let a groan leave her lips to symbolize that as her answer.
Ugh…so…bored!
When the end of the day finally came, Stori twitched in her seat; she couldn't keep still. She was so excited about the weekend; the weather people had said it was suppose to start snowing over that time. Stori face brightened just at the thought of seeing that soft, cold ball of snow falling from the heavens!
RING! The bell sounded. Stori jumped out of her seat and flashed out the door and down the hall towards Lana's last class. Once she saw her, Stori took Lana by the hand and dragged her down the hall along with her.
Stori couldn't wait to get out of school and finally be able to relax! After all, what could possible go wrong?
"A WHAT!" Stori exclaimed.
"A vacation," Lana replied, a little embarrassed.
"Why now? I had so much I wanted us to do!" Stori fell backwards onto her bed and groaned.
"Well, you can always spend time with Seto-shama," Lana suggested smiling at her.
"NO! That's your idea of fun…to me it's just a recipe for disaster…why do you keep bringing him up anyway?" Stori said sitting up in her bed and looking at her friend with a curious look.
"No reason-," Stori suddenly put Lana into a headlock.
"Don't you 'no reason' me! I know you better than that Ana-san! All right! What'd you tell him!" Stori exclaimed.
"Nothing! Just that-,"
Ding Dong! Stori and Lana stopped in place and look at Stori's bedroom door; then at eachother; before finally letting go of one another and zipping out the door and down the hall towards the stairs.
Stori shoved Lana out of the way as she tried to go down first, Stori was playing of course, but she had done it so she had completely let go so Stori could go speeding down the stairs.
There was a loud THUD! THUD! THUD! THUD, as Stori came rushing down the stairs, basically announcing that she would get the door, but her mom had already beaten her to it by the time she had gotten half way down the stairs.
Suddenly Stori's foot slipped and she went flying backwards onto the stairs, flopping down the rest of the way. Lana couldn't help but stand there at the top of the stairs and laugh. Stori just groaned and rubbed the back of her head
"Damn shoes!"
"I believe that was all your fault," came a chilling voice.
Stori let her eyes grow wide she looked up to meet eyes with Seto Kaiba. What was he doing here?
Stori quickly got up and brushed herself off ( she was still in her school uniform and it had slid up a little ways)
"What are you doing here?" she shot at him as she glared up at his tall form.
"I came here to pick something up," he said turning away, his face still emotionless. Stori sweat dropped and let her eyes glaze over. By this time Lana had already came all the way down stairs and was now snickering behind Stori's back.
Stori turned to Lana and grabbed her by the cuff of her shirt, "Is this you idea of fun!" ( She is trying to make it so Seto doesn't hear her, even though he's right in the kitchen.)
"No! This isn't what I meant, I never told him to come over, I swear," Lana said holding her hands up in defense.
"No, I did," came a familiar voice from behind. They both turned to see Stori's mom standing there.
"MOM! Why?" Stori exclaimed, not really meaning to be that loud.
"Like he said dear, I had him come and pick something up,"
Stori and Lana both stared at her mom with a confused look and blinked.
Seto Kaiba picking up something for a middle-classed person like Stori's mom? Was what was going through their minds.
"What exactly…was it, mom?" Stori said letting go of Lana.
"This," she heard Seto's voice say, she look past her mom to see Seto standing there and holding a couple of floppy disks in his hand. This just made the girls even more confused.
"They're virtual maps of the new simulation project, proceeding at the Kaiba Corp. Headquarters," stated Stori's mom.
"In English mom," Stori hadn't meant the actually language, it was a term used for when someone didn't understand something.
"Blue-prints," Seto stated, pushing past the two girls and heading out the door.
Stori gave her departing mother a shocked look.
"Mom?"
"I work part time for him, the whole reason why we moved here," her mom stated, her back turned to them as she continued on her way towards the laundry room.
What a strange day this has been…
End! Laughs at how she had made everything so funny and random Ahh, I needed that laugh! Hope you liked it, if not, oh well… ONTO DISCLAIMER!
