Chapter six: Copycat.
After Kaiba left, Meyli tried to sort thing out, to decide what to do next, she was upset that her brother dared to search through her past, now he knew almost everything she didn't wanted him to know, like her problems with justice and the fact that she was taking drugs. Luckily for her, he didn't know everything. If he actually knew all of it he would have never let her stay.
She was also grateful, he had let her in, even after what he found out, her only two other option were to return with her uncle, never in a lifetime, or became a prostitute, there was another option, it was six feet underground which was not appealing to her. (An: you'll understand later.)
And last, she was mad, really mad. Another thing that Mokuba took from her, first her mother and now her brother, one thing was sure in her mind, no matter what she could never forgive him, Kaiba chose him over her and that was his problem, he would realise one day that the kid is the cause of all his sadness. (An: bitchy isn't she?)
Kaiba had keep his words about making arrangement so she could stay, for a little while, she wasn't really sure about it but she hoped for longer, most of the foster home were full and the only place left were reserved for kids who had nowhere to stay, which wasn't her case, so the stupid social worker made it clear that she had to stay with her uncle or Kaiba, and that, at least until she turned 18. Stupid law, because of her problem with justice she couldn't become a legal adult like Kaiba.

Monday was finally here, or rather unfortunately it was Monday, which meant she had to go to school, who invented school anyway, like she needed to go, she was just as intelligent as Kaiba and Mokuba.
"I look like a prostitue." Meyli said looking at herself in the mirror, the uniform didn't suit her at all, but then again it didn't suit anyone.
"What's a prostitute?" Asked Mokuba's innocent voice.
"Just look at me, it should explain all." She replied, being a slut wasn't really appealing so Meyli decided to at least make her best to not upset the kid so Kaiba wouldn't throw her out, but she was never going to accept or forgive him.
"I don't get it, you look like any other girl in Seto's school."
"And I thought Seto chose this school because it was well quoted." Mokuba let out a laugh. "There's no way I'll give all those pigs a show by wearing this." Meyli walked out of her room and entered Seto's one, without knocking I must add.
"Ever heard of knocking?" Kaiba complained.
Meyli looked at her brother who was getting dressed for school, he was currently shirtless. (An: I'm jealous.) "I have way better things to do then look at your lack of masculinity." Meyli entered Kaiba's walk in closet under Kaiba's questioning glace.
Kaiba smirked "You look like-"
"A slut, I know."
"What are you doing?"
"If I wanted to be a slut I would have stayed in Tokyo, there's no way I'm wearing that."
"Yesterday you were complaining about me entering your room while you were changing and now you are changing yourself in my closet."
"Well I don't want you watching."
"Never crossed my mind." Kaiba said as Meyli exited the closet. He smirked seeing her.
"Now that's better." She said, watching herself in the mirror. She snatched one of Kaiba's old uniform, the two of them were almost identical, Except for the fact that Kaiba was still a few inches taller then her, Meyli had longer hair and if you looked close enough you could see that there was a girl breast behind the boy shirt they were identical. (An: now I just got a totally hilarious idea, you'll see later in the chapter) Sure, she also had a more feminine face but unless you saw them both at the same time no one would notice.
"You are so not going to go to school dress like that."
"That never stopped me before." She said as she hid her hair in the vest of the uniform. Now they were identical. except for the height.
"You're better not put any make-up or I'll have your head."

Mokuba entered the kitchen, but he didn't went any further in, he rubbed his eyes but it didn't worked, there was still two Seto. Kaiba looked up from his newspaper and smiled at his brother's confusion. "Good morning Mokuba."
Ok, that one was definitely Seto, so who was the other. "Good morning Seto." Mokuba sat down but still kept looking quizzically at the other one. "Good morning." He said to that person, in a voice that he hopped was confident.
"Good morning." Meyli answered out of politeness, she didn't wish him anything good.
Mokuba sighed, that was definitely Meyli with her total indifferent voice.

Kaiba and Meyli entered the school, no one really paid attention to them, which was what Meyli wanted, people were always looking at her, boys were thinking about things I can't describe and girl all gave her disgusting looks because boys were gaping at her.
"If someone ask, I don't know you." Kaiba said.
"You should say that if someone ask I'm not you."
"That too. The principal office is just there, have fun."
"Gee, the old man will probably have a heart attack when he'll see me."
"That would be nice. Wait till you get in class."
8888
Just as she predicted, the principal almost had a heart attack when he saw her, in fact he kept babbling about the reputation of his school and bla bla bla, Meyli was quite amused. Of course when he saw that she was under the Seto Kaiba's care he stopped and let it go.
8888
And just as always class was boring, except for the new that a new girl was coming today, the boys were really interested, especially since no one saw her yet, actually no one realised it was her.
The first period ended without any sign of the new girl, Kaiba knew it was because of the uniform, but he also knew that once the principal saw she was living with him he would let it go.
"I can't wait to see the new girl, I hope she's hot." Joey said.
"Can't you think of anything else?" Tea complained.
"Yea, I thought you were already taken by Kaiba." Tristan said.
"It's not funny Tristan, I swear I didn't dream."
"Yea right." Both Tristan and Tea said. They kept bugging him about what Joey said happened with Kaiba all week long.
"Some friends you are." Joey said as he walked away.
"Come on Joey, it's just a joke."
8888
So far no one realised that Meyli was a girl, in fact they didn't realised that she wasn't Kaiba yet, even his fangirl were walking behind her at a safe distance. Everywhere she walked everyone would just get out of her way, until a certain blond faking to be angry refused to move out of the way.
"Move it Kaiba." He said as he pushed her with his shoulder.
Meyli recognised him as one of the boy who kept drooling at her when she first came in town.
"Leaving so soon?" One of her inner talent was to perfectly imitate any voice she wanted, including Kaiba's one
"You have a problem with that?" Joey said without realising that the person he thought was Kaiba was actually smaler than him.
This was getting so sweet. "Well I thought you may like company."
Joey froze in place. "What?"
Meyli walked a step closer to ward Joey and discretely started to rub his arm while whispering something in his ear. (An: Now if I repeated it this story would be erased from fanfiction, nah just joking I'm just letting it to your imagination.)
All of Joey's hair raised on his hair, there was no way this could be possible. Tea and Tristan also saw everything, they didn't hear what Meyli said but the look on Joey's face explained it all.
"No way, he wasn't lying." Tristan said.
"Come on, let's just take him somewhere else before he's traumatise to death." Tea said.
Tea and Tristan both walked to Joey's side. "Sorry Kaiba, he won't bother you anymore." Tristan said as they walked backyard, Kaiba was totally creeping them out. "On the count of three we turn around and go to Math class." Tristan whispered. "One, three." They all turned around and entered the classroom who happened to be just beside them.
As soon as they stepped inside they froze. Yugi, who was already in the classroom gave them a funny look, what in the world was wrong with them.
The only other person in the class, sensing that someone was staring intensely at him looked up from his laptop. "You geeks have a problem?" Kaiba asked in annoyance.
Tea, Tristan and Joey looked back over their shoulder, 'Kaiba' was no longer in the hallway, they looked back in the classroom, Kaiba was there, they did the same thing two or three times before Kaiba got really annoyed. "Would you stop it already?"
Deciding not to bother Kaiba anymore, they walked up to Yugi. "What's wrong with you?" The short boy asked.
Joey explained everything, not too loud because he didn't wanted Kaiba to know he had creped him out, of course Kaiba heard every word of it and one name rang through his mind; Meyli.
"Well there's no way it could have been Kaiba, he was here all along." Yugi said.
"I swear, it was him, we all saw him." The two others nodded.
By this time all the other students were there and the teacher entered the class. "Everyone back to your seat, that includes you Mr Wheeler."
"As you probably already know, we have a new student today, a young girl from Tokyo. You can come in." Unfortunately for the poor teacher, (An: who happen to be Mr Filion for everyone who read In the other's shoes) he hadn't seen Meyli before letting her in.
For the first time since the big bang Mr Filion was at a total lost of words, but all the students were too shocked to realise it, safe from Seto Kaiba. Realisation then hit Joey, Tristan and Tea, it was her that flirted with Joey.
"Young girl, care to explain yourself?" Filion said, referring to her clothing.
"Well you told me to come in."
"I was talking about the way you are dress."
"What about it?"
"That's the boy uniform."
"And your point is? You don't expect me to dress like that." She pointed the uniform of the closest girl.
"Actually yes, it's the rule."
"Well the principal said it was ok so I don't things your opinion matter, now if you'll excuse me I have to act as if I actually cared about your teaching."
Everyone was stunned, no one, except Kaiba of course, could speak to the infamous math teacher like that. (An: yes I changed him to a math teacher)
"Hey Joey." Joey looked at Yugi. "Do you think she could be the one you saw this morning?"
Joey thought about it. "Maybe, she does look a lot like Kaiba."

Today class was rather… interesting, never in all the history of school had a girl dared to wear the boy's uniform, 5 minutes after the end of the class all the school had learned about Meyli. Especially a certain Jenny, who was the president of the Kaiba fanclub, and she didn't missed the fact that that she looked like Kaiba.
"You have a problem?" Meyli asked when Jenna blocked her path.
"Actually yes, stay away from MY Seto Kaiba."
"Your Seto Kaiba?" Meyli just shrugged her shoulder. "If you say so, it's not like I have any interest in him."
"Then why are you dressed like him?"
Meyli shrugged again. "Maybe that's because this is one of Seto's uniform."
"His?"
Meyli smiled. "Yes his, I walked in his room this morning while he was shirtless and took it."
The look on the face of Jenna was priceless, but Meyli had better things to do so she just walked away.
A few minutes later a familiar blond appeared behind her, she had taken her hair out of the jacket so now she was easy to recognise.
"Hey, I was just wondering…where you…" Joey started.
"If you want to know if I was the one who 'flirted' with you this morning then the answer's yes."
Joey let out a sigh. "That's good to hear."
"Looks like you don't like Seto that much."
"You can say it that way, why did you do it anyway?"
"Let's just say it was my revenge for the way you were 'looking' at me the other day." Meyli said.
"Yeah, I guess it was kinda out of place. Hey, my friends and I are going to hang out around town, wanna join us?"
"Sorry but I'm not into friendship thingny."
"Bad experience?"
Meyli slammed just the door of her locker. "That's a way to see it." She said as she walked out of the school.
