Silver Dragon - It's alright I don't mind. So yeh, Anzu's just a dancer...not a stripper, I like YamixAnzu too but I've read it so much now...dunno. Anyway, as for Shizuka, I don't dislike her but I needed a slut and I like Mai so I didn't want to use her. I don't know Miho well enough so I used Shizuka, plus it gave me an excuse to use Jounouchi.
DojomistressAmbyChan - I dunno about it being on her transcript, it's not really important. I guess you can put it down to inter-school rumour mills.
Pairings: YamixAnzu, BakuraxAnzu, MarikxAnzu, RyouxAnzu
Notes: There's a lot of description in this chapter but I needed to get it out of the way.
Anzu had gone home shakily, she's followed Marik to the hospital, apparently he wasn't in any great danger but he'd managed to swallow some drug, ecstasy or something. Anzu didn't really remember. Mai had rung to see if she got home okay, Anzu thought this strange because the blonde didn't usually ring to ask about her only of her. However the brunette hadn't really thought about it much since she'd been so tired and scared last night she'd fallen straight to sleep.
She woke up in the morning with a splitting headache and a queasy stomach and decided it would be better for her if she took some painkillers and staid home today. Anzu's parents were away in America, but no-one had to know that, her mother's brother lived a little while away, he rang every day to check she was okay and whether or not she needed anything.
Anzu considered ringing him and asking for him to give her permission to be off school but he would be at work so Anzu forged her father's signature and sent a fax to the school. Anzu then made herself a cup of hot chocolate and took it up to bed, taking a couple of tablets she settled down into bed with a book.
…
Anzu groaned and rolled over, the book she had been reading fell to the floor and the thud cleared her mind enough to realise what had disturbed her. The bell was ringing downstairs, Anzu trooped to her front facing bedroom window and looked out to see a main of white hair and a blue Domino High uniform.
Anzu gulped and hurriedly threw on some jeans and a hoodie, thinking it was Bakura. If she didn't answer the door and he said she was skiving she'd be in trouble. She thundered down the stairs calling, "Coming!"
The ringing stopped and two seconds later she threw open the door, there stood, not Bakura, but his cousin Ryou. "Sorry to keep you wai- oh Ryou," Anzu blushed realising that her hair was messed up, she only had one arm through her hoodie and she was breathing heavily.
"I'm sorry Mazaki-san I didn't realise you were alone, I'm sorry to disturb you," Ryou blushed, his fingers flicked through a pile of books and papers in his hands.
"Oh that's alright Ryou-kun," Anzu laughed slightly, "but if you don't mind me asking, why are you here?"
"Um I," Ryou blushed, "I wanted to give these to you," he held out the papers and books to Anzu, Anzu blinked and looked at them then realised that some of them were hers. "I know that you don't like to miss out on anything so I brought your schoolwork," Ryou shifted from one foot to the other.
Anzu smiled, "That's really sweet Ryou-kun, oh, I've been so rude," she moved out of the doorway, "come in, come in."
"Oh no Mazaki-san, I really shouldn't," Ryou flustered.
Anzu laughed, "It's alright, anyway, hospitality is the least I can give you for coming all this way," she smiled again and Ryou relented. He stepped into the house and looked around.
"It's very nice Mazaki-san," he commented.
"Thank-you," she smiled and walked towards the kitchen, "this way, do you want a drink? A tea, a coffee or lemonade maybe?"
"Green tea would be fine," Ryou replied.
Anzu poured some green tea into two cups and handed one to Ryou, "So anyway, anything interesting happen in school today?"
"Well Marik didn't come to school," Anzu just about masked her worried look, "Bakura-san and Yami-kun phoned his house but no-one picked up, then they rang Malik-kun's mobile but all he knew was that Marik-kun had told him last night he was going out and hadn't come home. I mean, I'm not exactly great friends with him or Yami-kun but I'm still a little worried," Ryou stopped for a moment and looked at Anzu. "Are you alright Mazaki-san? You look a bit pale."
"Um well," Anzu bit her lip, if she told Ryou where Marik was then he'd go and the doctors would say Anzu brought him in. Then there's be questions about why he was with her and what they were doing and if it got out he'd taken drugs…Well Anzu didn't know everything about the public view of Marik but she was pretty sure that at the moment it didn't include drugs.
"Mazaki-san?" Ryou prompted putting down his empty cup.
"It's nothing Ryou, really," Anzu smiled brightly, "I'm fine."
Ryou looked at her sceptically before he suddenly reached into his pocket and pulled out a sheet of paper, "Oh yeh, I almost forgot, Bakura-san asked me to give this to you."
Ryou handed Anzu the folded piece of paper and she opened it, after a moment she glared at it, "What's the matter Mazaki-san, what has he gone and done now?" Anzu just turned the paper round so he could read it, "A sign up form for the tennis tournament…oh wait, I get it, he wants that match."
"Well you can tell your cousin that he wont be getting it," with that Anzu walked over to the bin and was about to let the paper go when Ryou stopped her.
"Actually Mazaki-san, I think it would be better if you did enter, I mean, if you beat him it would finally put him in his place and if you didn't it would get him off your back," Ryou reasoned.
Anzu felt a slight heat rise in her cheeks as she felt Ryou's long, soft fingers curl round her wrist. She swallowed hard before she looked up at him and smiled, "Alright Ryou-kun, hand me a pen."
Ryou smiled and fished one out of his pocket, "Say, Mazaki-san, what was wrong with you today, how come you weren't in school?"
"Oh just a stomach bug and a headache but I'm all better now," she grinned as she signed the bottom of the form, "there, all done." Just then Anzu felt the need to yawn and stretch, the hoodie rose up slightly to reveal her flat stomach and Ryou went red.
"Mazaki-san," she turned to look at him, "there was one other thing," this time Ryou pulled a piece of folded card out of his pocket and handed it to Anzu.
She looked at it and smiled, 'Get Well Soon' was coloured on the front along with a little chibi. "Aw…Ryou-kun, did you make this yourself?" Anzu grinned as he blushed.
"Well actually it's not just me, it's from Yuugi-kun too but you're all better so I guess it doesn't matter," Ryou's shoulders slumped slightly, all this while he and Anzu had walked to the door.
"It's okay Ryou-kun, it's the thought that counts, neh?" Anzu smiled.
"I guess," Ryou shrugged, Anzu opened the door. "So you'll be in school tomorrow then Mazaki-san?" Ryou asked as he stepped out of the house; through the door.
"Yes, oh and Ryou-kun," he turned and blushed when Anzu reached up to give him a kiss on the cheek, "thank-you for coming to see me," Ryou nodded hastily. Anzu smiled as he turned to leave, the blush on his face had been so cute.
…
Anzu had gotten properly dressed and pulled on a coat, hailing a cab she got a ride to Domino hospital. The clerk was the same one that had been there last night, the woman recognised her.
"He's awake," she said simply, smiling slyly at her, "you can go and see him if you like?"
Anzu didn't answer her just made for Marik's room and peaked inside to see him lying on his side with his back to her. She pushed the door open slowly, "Marik?" she called out shakily.
He rolled over, "Huh? Mazaki? What are you doing here?"
"I just wondered how you were doing, I here everyone in school is worried about you," Anzu commented, as she came closer Marik shifted up to rest against the head board.
Marik grunted, "Sure they were."
Anzu stood by the edge of the bed and fidgeted slightly, "Who gave it to you Marik?"
Marik didn't meet her eyes, the blonde's violet orbs were focused on his hands, "Who gave me what? I have no idea what you're talking about."
Anzu glared at him, "Don't lie to me, what did you take and who gave it to you?"
"Alright fine so I took a bit of ecstasy from some blond guy in a bandana, it wasn't meant for me anyway so why does it matter, I'm still alive aren't I?" Marik sneered at her.
"Do you have any idea what you – wait," Anzu's eyes widened, "did you say a blond…in a bandana," Marik nodded, "what kind of bandana, did he have an accent, what colour eyes did he have?"
"Slow down, what's with the twenty questions, it was an American flag, he had an American accent and I couldn't his eyes he had shades on," Marik huffed, crossing his arms and glaring at Anzu who had suddenly gone ghostly white.
Anzu gulped, she was shaking slightly, her fingers gripped the edge of the bed so tightly that her knuckled turned white, "Nom" she shook her head, "not again, I thought I'd lost him."
Marik was about to respond when he realised Anzu wasn't talking to him, in fact, she wasn't talking to anyone in the room but one thing was clear. She new the guy that had dealt him ecstasy and what's worse was that the American had told him to give to Anzu. Why was he trying to drug her? Why had he chickened out? And what was the connection between this strange man and Anzu?
Well I'd say that was an interesting chapter.
