Mai had decided to go clubbing in Domino on Saturday night. Mai decided she wanted to get out more ever since the Duelist Kingdom. Going there was like a self-discovery. She discovered that she no longer had to be alone, that there were people there waiting for her. Battle city just strengthened her trust. She had spent her life in hate, but Yugi and Anzu turned that around. And then, there was…him. "No." Mai said to herself quickly knocking the idea out of her head.

With a clear head and open mind, she stepped into the first club. A large neon sign hung over the building reading: CLUB MIDNIGHT. The glowing lights of the club traveled in every imaginable direction. She would get up and dance with whoever had their eyes on her, which turned out to be a good many.

Throughout the crowded club, the lights flashed but nothing was fazing her, until one point. As she was still in motion, her head kept filling with Jonouchi's image. With that little grin he would always wear even when he would go through hell. Her body moved on it's own, but her mind kept racing.

The thoughts kept looking to the past. She saw herself back at Pegasus's kingdom. From the first moment she saw Jonouchi, she thought he was just another amateur kid, just another pushover. At first, he was just some roadblock. Then she had dueled him and had seen that he was still just a pushover, but he left her with a mystery she couldn't solve. Then she remembered how she would still do something as under-handed as use Ryuzaki as a pawn. Jonouchi still came out on top, but not because of his abilities, but his sheer courage. Her final memory was giving him the glory card. There was no reason for her to even be on the island, let alone to give up her card. She had said she gave it to help Shizuka, but she still wondered, wondered if that was the only reason. Before she could continue to think, reality sunk back in. Her body stopped moving as she fell to the floor. She staggered up and tried walking to the bar. She had a slight headache from all her thoughts, but she still thought about their greatest and almost last moments together. During her duel with Malik, she was completely trapped. But Jonouchi even risked not only his seat in the finals, but his very life, just to try and save her. At that moment, their egos didn't matter. She got the memory out of her head and sat down at the bar, still feeling the now extreme headache.

"Miss, I know a drink that can help you with that headache." A man at the bar said.

"Thanks." Mai replied as the man ordered her a drink. She looked at her watch which read: 10:34. The man sat her drink next to her, but she didn't drink it. "Is there something that's bothering you?" the man asked.

"No…well, there's this guy…" Mai replied with a dizzied sense.

"Oh, then you're in love? Then why are you at a place like here?" the man asked.

"I'm not in love!" Mai exclaimed. "The guy's a jackass. He's crude and rowdy and an ego freak."

Mai suddenly began calming down and her tone changed. "But, on the other hand, he's caring and courageous and loyal and I feel warm and loved whenever I'm around him."

"So this guy is a dog?" the man replied as she smirked.

"I just keep trying to tell myself that I don't love him, but whenever I do, I get these headaches. I'm sorry, you bought me this drink and I haven't even taken a sip, how rude of me." Mai said as she took a swig of the drink. She almost gagged it out, but she swallowed it.

After she did, she started to fell dizzy, as if the world around her kept spinning. The man said, "Don't worry. You won't have to worry about whoever you love for quite a while." She heard these words and then, she lost consciousness, afraid of what would happen next.

What will happen now? Please review. This is only my second Yu-gi-oh fic.
