Disclaimer: WE DO NOT OWN YGO! BUT WE OWN LEIKO AND TIKARU!
Chapter 3 – By Leiko
The screaming and arguing continued until Leiko's head appeared in the kitchen doorway. "Ryou! Did you cook waffles!"
Ryou looked at her nervously and nodded. "Ye-Yes..."
"Gimme some! Sheesh, Tikaru. Always hogging the good food for yourself... Hey! Where'd it all go!"
Tikaru turned and grinned sheepishly, her face covered in syrup.
Leiko huffed and put her hand on her hip, flicking Tikaru's face with the free one. "Twit..." She sighed. "I guess it's an energy drink again for everyone else in the house..." She play glared at Tikaru and then walked to the fridge, opening the door. "Hey, Seto!"
An unpleasant, "What now?" came from the other room.
"Well, sorry, Scrooge! Geez... Since you're being so mean, you've got grocery duty today!"
Another grunt.
Leiko shook her head and sat down at the table, popping the tab on her energy drink. Just then the phone rang.
RING
RING
RING
After a couple seconds the ringing stopped and Seto answered with a monotone, 'Hello?'.
"Yeah... Just a second... Leiko!"
"What!" She answered snappily.
"Phone!"
Sighing she got up and walked casually into the living room. She took the phone and plopped on the couch. "Leiko here. What's up?" She listened for a moment. "Mm hmm... Yeah..." Another moment of silence. "I think so..."
"NOOOOOO!" Yuugi dropped his controller on the floor after getting a GAME OVER and fell on his back, pretending to cry. "WHY!"
Leiko put a finger to her lips and listened. "7? Can you make it 8:30? Yeah... Alright then! Sounds good! No, thank you! Buh bye!" She hung up. "Everybody get in here!"
Yami jumped down the stairs and Ryou and Tikaru came out of the kitchen.
"What?" Tikaru said, plopping down on the couch next to Leiko.
"We have a gig at Orlando's at 8:30! I guess the owner was at our gig last night and really liked it!" Leiko grinned and threw her arms up in the air.
"Yay! We're a hit!" Tikaru said, smiling.
8:30
Tikaru stepped forward and Leiko started to play the melody to the song, as Tikaru started to sing.
Here's the thing we started off friends
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Yeah yeah
Since you've been gone
You're dedicated you took the time
Wasn't long before I called you mine
Yeah yeah
Since you've been gone
And all you ever hear me say
Is how I picture me with you
That all you ever hear me say
A bright light appeared lit up above the band as the chorus begun. Leiko and Tikaru standing infront of the mikes, drawing in a breath.
But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get
What I want
Since you've been gone
Tikaru stepped back from the mike and started playing to the words as Leiko sang.
How can I put it? You put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah yeah
Since you've been gone
How come I never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way
Tikaru once again stepped forward and the two sang the chorus again.
But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get
What I want
Since you've been gone
The guitar part picked up, the drums now more audible than before, as Tikaru and Leiko sang the climax to the song.
You had your chance you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth I just can't take it
Again and again and again and again
The guitar quieted a bit, the drums still giving a beat.
Since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get
I get what I want
I can breath for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (I get)
You should know (you should know)
That I get
I get what I want
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Cheers came from all of the crowd and a few boys in the front row even handed them roses. Leiko smiled at them and put her white one behind her ear. "Thanks!"
Tikaru nodded and put her red one behind the opposite ear. "They're beautiful!" The two girls both gave the boys kisses on the cheeks and then came back to regroup with the band and get ready for the next song.
"Ooh! Let's sing that one song... uh... 'Why don't you kiss her'! Seto's really good at that one!" Leiko said, pointing at Seto.
Everyone nodded and Seto crossed his arms. "Does that mean I really don't have a choice?"
Leiko put her hand on her chin. "Basically... yeah!" She grinned and everyone laughed.
Seto huffed and shook his head. "Fine..." He walked off to get ready. Five minutes later they were up and singing again.
The beat began as Seto began to sing, Leiko next to him playing guitar and Tikaru playing bass.
We were the best of friends
And we share our secrets
She knows everything that is on my mind
But lately something's changed
As I lie awake in my bed
A voice here inside my head
Softly says
Why don't you kiss her
Why don't you tell her
Why don't you let her see
The feelings that you hide
'Cause she'll never know
If you never show
The way you feel inside
Oh I'm so afraid to make that first move
Just a touch and we
Could cross the line
Every time she's near
I wanna never let her go
Confess to her what my heart knows
Hold her close
Why don't you kiss her
Why don't you tell her
Why don't you let her see
The feelings you hide
'Cause she'll never knows
If you never show
The way you feel inside
What would she say
I wonder would she just turn away
Or would she promise me
That she's here to stay
It hurts me to wait
I keep asking myself
Why don't you kiss her
Why don't you tell her
Why don't you let her see
The feelings you hide
'Cause she'll never knows
If you never show
The way you feel inside
Why don't you kiss her (tell her you love her)
Why don't you tell her (tell her you need her)
Why don't you let her see
The feelings you hide
'Cause she'll never knows
If you never show
The way you feel inside...
The cheers began again and a young girl jumped up and down offering a pad and pen to Seto. "Can I have your autograph!" Leiko laughed and nudged Seto as he raised an eyebrow.
"Go on Seto. Give her an autograph!"
Seto glared at Leiko and took the pen and pad, scribbling his signature and giving it back to the girl. He put his hands in his pockets and walked back to everyone else, Leiko skipping behind him. "Seto has little girlie fans!" Leiko said, slapping him on the back.
"Knock it off..." He growled.
Everyone laughed and they continued to pack up, not long afterwards leaving the club and hopping in the band van to head home.
Yuugi was the first in the door, immediately turning his video game. Yami sat down next to him, trying once again to understand the concept of the electronic contraption.
"Yuugi! C'mon! Give someone else a chance! If you play that too much it's going to eat your brain!" Leiko reached for the controller in the boy's hand immediately pulling it back as he began to gnaw on it. "God! Devil child!" She said, rubbing the thumb that he had bitten. "Yami... What's his problem..?"
"Don't ask me... I have no idea..." Yami said, looking at her, and raising an eyebrow.
"Well, find out! He's trying to eat people!"
Ryou and Tikaru laughed as they entered through the door as well.
Everyone tried to pry Yuugi off the game, each and everyone of them getting bitten, Seto sitting back watching the entire thing.
Leiko sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. "I give up... I'm going to bed..." She went upstairs, changing into her pajamas and getting into bed. Tikaru was next to go to sleep, followed by Yami, then Seto. Ryou went to bed not long afterwards and Yuugi was left alone downstairs. Because of this, he sighed and saved his game, retreating to his room and going to bed as well, as thunder began to chime and lighting began to flash outside, the rain pattering against the window.
