Yu-Gi-Oh Marching Band

Weirdo: Thanks to chibibatmishu for my one other review

Kaiba knew Rachel was still on the other side of the door, still close enough for him to feel her body warmth as he leaned against it crushed.

"Rachel.." he said through the door. "Rachel, please…if…if that kiss truly meant nothing…oh, Rachel. Then why won't you look at me?" Rachel didn't answer, though Kaiba felt her lean against the other side of the door. "Rachel… I was any idiot. I know that now. I knew it the moment I saw that hurt look on your face…Rachel, please…please tell me that you love me. Please…say that to me and I'll never hurt you like that again, for what it's worth, on my honor."

"You have no honor, Seto Kaiba." Rachel snapped. But her voice sounded sad almost, dare he think it, forgiving. He felt her move away and a moment after the door opened. "Not even I can leave you out there all night." With a smile, Kaiba stepped onto the bus, and held Rachel close to him. This time she didn't resist his touch, she embraced it.

"Three second hugs." One of the chaperones reminded them. Rachel blushed, and led Kaiba to a seat across the aisle from Ryo and Ari. The movie showing on the bus was Pirates of the Caribbean.

"Yes, a Johnny Depp movie." Rachel whispered, cuddling up to Kaiba.

"Great, another movie where you drool over the main character." Rachel playfully nudged Kaiba and laughed.

After they had taken roll, Ryo led Ari to his seat. She snuggled into his warm body as he placed his arms around her neck, letting one rest on her stomach and the other on a shoulder. She leaned her head on one of his shoulders, closing her eyes. "How long?" She whispered. Ryo looked down and made a noise. "It felt like you'd wanted to do that for a long time. How long?"

"As long as I've known you." He said, closing his eyes and resting his head on hers. "It felt that way to me too. How long?"

"Just as long." Ari said softly. "Since sixth grade, when I first walked into your homeroom class." She snuggled into him, not even watching the movie. She was too preoccupied with Ryo sliding down to kiss her cheek and neck. "Ryo…" She whispered. "Ryo…I love you…"

"I know sweet…I love you too…more than I can say." Ari pulled away reluctantly.

"We could get in trouble…"

"We won't be the only ones." Ryo nodded in the direction of Rachel and Kaiba.

"Yea, but they're always in trouble." Ari said.

"I am Bish-O-Man!" Could be heard from underneath the bus, along with various clunks.

"Wheeler, where'd you stuff Bish-O-Man?" Kaiba growled, trying to wake Rachel, who had fallen asleep.

"We knocked him out-"

"Hey!" Chenoa called from her seat.

"I mean Chenoa knocked him out, and we stuffed him under the bus." Joey replied, trying not to disturb Mai, who was leaning against his arm.

"We should get him out before he hurts himself." Yugi piped up from the back of the bus.

"I'm more worried about the instruments." Kaiba grumbled. "Duke, Tristian, go get him out and stick him somewhere else." As Rachel stirred, he noticed Ryo and Ari. "Guess I was right."

"Huh?" Rachel woke up, stretching her arms, and snuggling into Kaiba's neck.

"Nothing." Kaiba whispered, pushing stray hairs out of her face. "Go back to sleep." He kissed the top of her head, and heard her sigh.

"Why do you love me?" Rachel sighed, as Kaiba wound his arms around her.

"Why do I need a reason to love you?" He whispered in her ear.

"Never mind." Rachel said sweetly. Kaiba smiled, and tipped her face to his.

"You are the reason I love you." He kissed her softly. Rachel smiled and hugged him tight. Kaiba hugged back, knowing his wish had come true.

Weirdo: Sorry if the last line was cheesy. I was freezing my toes off when I wrote it
