A/N: OK, the basic plot is that a new girl arrives at the academy, and...I suck at summaries. Not your basic love story. It's fluffy. Fluff everywhere. Wall-to-wall fluff. Coupling? Syrus and a fan character. A little. And I don't know much about the dueling cards, so must of the ones I use are not real. Repeat after me. NOT. REAL.

This is my first GX fic, so be nice. hiss

Jaden work early in the morning to a sharp rap on the dorm door. He groaned. "What?" He rolled over and pulled the bedsheets up to his chin, closing his eyes tightly.

If being woke up early didn't irritate him, then the snide voice of Dr. Crowler pushed him over the edge. "Open the door, Jaden. There is a new student being put in your dorm." Jaden could picture the teacher's face now, sneer curling his purple lips. God, he hated him. "Jaden, now!" he barked.

The young duelist stood and shuffled sleepily to the door. The sun was just beginning to rise and he waned nothing more than to curl up and go to sleep, but Dr. Crowler already hated him with a passion. He didn' want to provoke him any more. He opened the door, quickly combing his thick brown hair with his fingers. Dr. Crowler was standing at the door, scowling. "Jaden, I don't expect to be kept waiting." he hissed.

"Sorry, Dr. Crowler." Jaden said, bowing his head and trying to look respectful. "We don't have another bed in here. How can we have another student sharing out dorm?" he asked.

"Don't worry about it Jaden." he said. The teacher stepped in the room, dragging a small cot behind him and bringing the new student into Jaden's view. She was a short girl with strawberry blonde hair down to the middle of her back. She had large blue-grey eyes and a pale complexion.

Jaden took one look at the newcomer and tunred back into the room. "Uh...this is the boy's dorm, Dr. Crowler!"

"I know, but the girl's dorms are all full." he said in his usual mocking tone. "I hope this won't bother you, Jaden? Or your roommates? Syrus won't be tempted to do anything he shoudn't?" (A/N: Something from the very beginning when Syrus was caught around the girl's dorms.)

"No." he said.

Well," Dr. Crowler said, "if you're all settled in, then I'll be leaving. Good luck, Melanie." Although his words were kind, his face laughing.

Melanie turned to him. "Uh, Jaden, right?" When the brunette nodded, she made a sick face. "That was the ugliest thing I've ever seen!"

Jaden laughed. The commotion of the morning dragged Syrus out of his bed, and he went to the sink to pour a glass of water. He then went back to his bed to put his glasses on. Letting out a huge yawn, he greeted his friend. "'Morning, Jaden." Syrus' grey eyes suddenly widened. "Jaden, there's a girl in our room."

"This is Melanie. Melanie, this is Syrus, one of our roommates. Chumley is our other roommate, but he's asleep." Jaden said.

The blue-haired boy, on the other hand, was in a state of utter shock. "Nice to meet you, Syrus." Melanie said politely. She turned to her suitcase sitting on her bed. Quickly she began unpacking. "What time do classes start?" she asked absentmindedly.

"They start at 8:00 AM." Jaden said. He gave Syrus a warning look. The shorter boy looked like he was about to say something, but after catching Jaden's eye he closed his mouth. "Well, I'll go into the bathroom and get dressed." he muttered. He grabbed a red shirt and pants out of his dressed and walked into the bathroom, leaving Syrus and Melanie alone.

"So...hi, Syrus." she said a little nervously.

"Hi." he sqeaked. "So, do you, erm, duel much?"

"If I didn't, I wouldn't be here." she laughed. "Are you any good?"

"Not really." Syrus sighed. "I just can't seem to get the hang of it. I have good cards, but I just can't really grasp the concept."

"I could help you train sometime." Melanie offered. "I admit I'm not the best duelist either. I bet we'd be evenly matched."

"Sure." Syrus smiled. "I'd like that." He turned to the closed door behind him. "Jaden, are you almost done?"

A few days later, Syrus was seated in Dr. Crowler's class. He was actually on time for a change. He could tell that Dr. Crowler had been looking for something to scold him and Jaden for, but he just grunted as they walked past.

As Dr. Crowler was standing up at the front of the classroom, preparing to speak, Melanie ran in the door. "Sorry, Dr. Crowler." she said, her face red. "I lost the most crucial card in my deck, and-"

"Yes, yes, we would all love to hear about your hectic morning, but unfortunately, neither I nor the class have time right now. Seat yourself." Dr. Crowler said, smirking. There was nothing he enjoyed more than embarrassing students.

Melanie hurriedly seated herself next to Syrus. In one hand was a small, square black box. Her name was printed on it in silver letters. He could tell that it was her deck. "Students, before we get started with today's lesson, I have an announcement." Dr. Crowler's voice was not at all happy. "It is a requirement that I tell you about the dance next week. Remember to ask that special girl." The teacher scowled.

Syrus sighed. "I'm going to be the only one without a date, you know." he said to Melanie and Jaden, who was seated on his other side.

"No you won't, Sy!" Jaden encouraged him. "There's gotta be at least one girl you like." He cast a sideways glance at Alexis, blushing slightly.

"Yeah..." he murmured, but said nothing else.

Melanie looked at the blue-haired boy. "Syrus, I know you'll find a date to the dance. Any girl would be lucky to go with you." (A/N: I'd just like to say to my friend Kaitlyn: Syrus is cuter than Zane ;)

"Melanie, is there anything you'd like to share with us?" Dr. Crowler sneered.

"Yes, yes there is." she replied quickly. "The magic card Attack Leeches reduces the attack points of a card of your choice by 200, but you forgot to mention that it also gives your weakest monster 200 attack points for the duration of the turn."

Dr. Crowler scowled. He looked genuinely embarrassed. "Yes, thank you."

Later, Melanie lay on the nearby beach. She should've been studying for the upcoming test, or practicing her dueling skills, but all she could think about was the dance. Syrus seemed unconfident that he would get a date, but he had a better chance than her! I'm new here, she thought, how am I going to get one boy to like me in one week?

Suddenly Melanie heard a voice calling her name. "Melanie, what are you doing here?" She groaned.

"Oh no. Not him."

A/N: Hehehe, cliffhanger! Don't you hate me? Review. OR ELSE.
