Serenity got back from a day of school- thinking about the morning's events, avoiding people, spending lunch with Mokuba as he talked about Nina. She ran into the house and saw Joey.
"Hey, Joey! A lotta homework. Bye!"
He seemed clueless. Good. The less he knew, the better. Oh.. he was gonna KILL her. The phone rang, and she picked up in case it was Kaiba.
'Why did I just call him Kaiba? He is Seto.' Joey was looking at her funny. She must have shown her puzzlement at herself on her face.
"Hello?"
"Can I talk to Joey?"
"Uh.. yeah, Tristan. Here he is." Then she ran. She knew what was coming. The "You let KAIBA go to the dance with your sister and not ME?!" The "WHAT?! SERENITY!!!" Oh.. there it was.
"WHAT?! SERENITY!!!"
Here we go..
Serenity rushed downstairs. Better get it over with.
The phone had been hung up. Uh-oh..
"I HEARD THAT YOU WERE GOING TO THE HALLOWEEN DANCE WITH KAIBA! KAIBA! How COULD YOU?! YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK OF THAT-"
And before Joey could finish his sentence and make this fic PG-13, the phone rang.
Serenity answered it. "Hello?"
"You will hang up if it's Kaiba." That was Joey's only response.
"Hi. It's Seto."
Oh, hi Tea!"
"Fine then. Take the call with Tea. Maybe she can convince you not to go with Kaiba." Joey again.
"I said Seto"
"Yes I know, Tea. Joey was just talking to me about the upcoming dance."
"Oh."
Serenity reached her room and shut the door.
"What did you want to tell me, Seto?"
"I'm going as an emo prince. To the halloween dance, I mean."
"I'm going as a punk fairy." (A.N.- again, thanks Kari!!)
"Cool. Oops. I've got to go. Mokuba wants to call Nina. He's going as Aragorn."
"With Nina as Arwin."
"Yep. Bye"
"See ya."
Serenity was finally at the dance. She saw a bunch of people. Tea, as Eowin and Yugi as Farimir. Wow, LOTR was popular. Two girls as Luigi and Mario, one about 5'9" and the other close to 5'. They were saying things such as "Woah, Kari! This is awesome!" and "You bet, Asia! This is so much better than when you went as a hippy!" Then laughter would follow. But right now the two didn't concern her. She was looking for Seto, the emo prince. She had no doubt he'd look as emo as she did punk. Her black wings and red dress inspired the punkness.
"I'm here."
Serenity turned around to face Seto, who truly did look the emo prince. He had wet marks under his eyes, they were red and puffy, the circlet on his head only magnified the effect of the shirt that said, "Nobody likes me, everybody hates me." and on the back it said "Cheer up Emo Kid- Punchline."
The first song was fast, and Serenity looked about for Joey- making sure he wasn't an axe murderer with a real axe. But no, he was Kenshin from Rorouni Kenshin (My new anime that I love). His hair was died and he had a sword and ponytail. Still potentially dangerous.
The next song was slow, but Seto's cell phone rang. Serenity sighed and looked around for Mokuba. She found him, but she found him alone. Where was Nina? She went to Mokuba.
"What's wrong, Moku?"
"Nina didn't want to go with me. She broke up with me last night on he phone because a football player asked her out."
"Sorry, Moku. You'll find a better date."
"Probably not."
At that point Seto found him.
"Mokuba. What's wrong?"
Mokuba retold the story and the three stayed toggether the rest of the night, until the last slow song was announced.
"I'll be getting our stuff, Seto. Bye, Ren." Then he walked off.
Seto looked kind of awkward. "So.. Do you want to dance? I wouldn't want Duke or Tristan to come and make you dance with them." The last part he said teasingly.
"Sure. I'll protect you from rabid fangirls."
The dance passed swiftly.. that is until the girl in the Luigi garb shouted-
"WOAH! THAT GUY LOOKS MURDEROUS!" She was pointing to Joey.
"Ah.. Seto, can I get a lift to Tea's house?"
"Sure."
AUTHOR'S NOTE!!
