Chapter #2

Good beginnings and fights with Kaiba

Beep. Beep. Beep.

I slammed my hand down onto my alarm clock shutting off the noise that had awoken me from my sleep. Squinting at it I read the numbers 5:30.I had decided to wake up early today so I could get a head start on finding Tea.

I rolled out of bed and plodded to the bathroom, where I had a shower and brushed my teeth and hair. Slowly I walked back into my room, still tiered because of my early awakening. I slipped into my pink uniform, looked in the mirror and all most threw up.

"Oh my god! This uniform is so tacky!" I managed to mumble.

Walking back into the bathroom I applied some cover-up, Blush and some light pink eyeshadow, with brown mascara. Looking in the mirror I was satisfied with my appearance then walked downstairs.

When I entered the kitchen I grabbed a muffin, from the bread basket, and my school bag then excited through the back door.

I found the school easily because I lived only a few blocks away and my dad showed me the route the day before. Wandering the many halls I found myself lost. I saw a brown haired girl putting books into a locker. "Um excuse me…? I think I might be lost" I stammered out to her.

She turned to face me and I instantly recognized her as the girl in the photo I had stayed up all night staring at so that I would remember her face. "Oh my god! I can't believe I found you so quickly!" I breathed a sigh of relief. Me search was over!

The brunette looked confused "do I know you?" she asked.

"Actually you don't but" I pulled out the creased photo worn because it was handled so much over the past few days. "You knew my best friend Yv… I mean Yeeling"

A moment of thought crossed Tea's features then she remembered. "Oh you must be Shelby! Yeeling sent me an email about you"

After I explained everything to Tea she showed me where all my classes were, though I soon forgot where they were, the place was huge!

"Let's see. You have first period with umm…lets see…Joey! Yes he has English first period"

I guess my face gave away what I was thinking because she then said

"Don't worry he's a friend. I'll send you with him so he can get you to your first class…then he can escort you to your next class and tell you if there is anyone else we know in your second class. You got all that?"

"Yup! Lead the way"

The hallways were now packed with students and late teachers rushing to get to their classrooms before their pupils did. Tea lead me through the crowd then stopped and shouted to a blond haired boy.

"JOEY!..HEY JOEY!" she yelled. The boy turned and grinned when he saw who was calling. I was speechless.

As Tea explained who I was and other stuff to him. All I could do was stare. He had laughing, honey, brown eyes and messy blond hair. He looked at me and I then noticed my mouth was hanging open. I quickly snapped it shut and my cheeks heat up.

He smiled when he saw I was blushing.

"Hi! I'm Joey. So you ready to get to class?" He held out his hand.

I shook my head to snap out of my sudden daze, and responded. "I'm Shelby and I'm as ready as I'll ever be"

He chuckled at my response. Finding that I needed to look somewhere other than him and the floor I began to search for Tea. I finally spotted her nearby fighting to not be swept away by the crowd.

"Well I have to get to class. You to should two if you don't want to be late. I'll see you at lunch Shelby. Oh and I'll meet you at your locker. Okay?" Tea said quickly.

"Yup sure" I croaked but was thinking no don't leave me yet! Don't leave me with possibly the hottest guy I've ever seen in my life! I don't want to be alone! "Well let's go," I said to Joey with fake confidence. I think by the look on my face and the chuckle he gave me after I said that, he knew it was fake confidence as well.

As a way of not losing me in the crowd the blond grabbed my elbow. He told me he would have taken my hand but didn't want to give people the wrong idea. As he continued to lead me I noticed a burly dark haired boy walking in the opposite direction to us. I also noticed that if people didn't move out of his way, which most people did, he would shove them aside and continue walking without so much as an apology.

How rude I thought

As he came by I also couldn't help but notice that he was very handsome, he had dark brown hair in a clean cut and ice blue eyes that were cold enough to make my insides freeze. I also noticed his arm muscles beneath his school uniform. Ignoring these facts I spoke to him "excuse me" I said politely.

He still shoved me side.

Joey noticed and was already calling out (a anger sign on is forehead was twitching) "Kaiba you creep! That is no way to treat a lady"

His shouts made the brunette call back "I'm sorry but I didn't see a lady with you"

Holy shit! Who does he think he is! He just insulted me! He called me a man! I thought in outrage.

He turned to stare at me so he could take in my reaction, with a smirk on his face. Staring him down I retorted "but I'm pretty sure there's one standing in front of me!"

Ha! I thought as I watched the smirk slide off his face.

Joey who was standing beside me watched the two of us with his mouth hanging open. I guess he's not used to girls sticking up for themselves I shrugged it off.

"Did you just call me a girl" the boy spat at me.

I rolled my eyes "well aren't you a smart one" I sneered.

He growled at me

"Your name's Kaiba right?"

A death glare was the only answer I got. "Well I'll take that as a yes seeing as your still trying to think of a comeback, to my last comment…"I paused to take in his reaction.

All he did was glare. So I continued…

"I said excuse be back there, and you still shoved me aside. Why?" I demanded.

"Why should I care whether a stupid little newcomer like you gets in my way, and has a problem with it?" he challenged back.

Everyone in the crowded hallways was listening now. Everyone had stopped to see the girl from Canada tell Kaiba off. Even some teachers were watching with interest.

Before he could do anything I walked up to him, grabbed one of his fingers, and twisted it back against his hand in a way no one would be able to do normally, without pulling their finger out of their socket or being in unbearable pain. With satisfaction I heard a sickening crack of bone.

Then everyone including me saw a spasm of pain shoot across his face.

Yes! I thought he's to stunned that I would try that, that it made this easier then I thought it would! Go me! go me!

"This" I said in an icy tone "was for calling me stupid." I brought his finger back further "and this was for thinking I would just stand back and let you push me around" I let go of his hand and glared at him. "Treat me with respect Kaiba or I could do much worse then brake you finger"

Finally snapping out of his shock he replied "I don't think so. Next time you won't be so lucky"

"Luck you think that was luck?" I laughed as he started to walk away "that was not luck Kaiba. That was just your weakness, shining through"

He stopped for a moment, then continued

good he heard me I thought smugly.

Someone in the crowd whistled and clapped for me. Soon everyone was clapping and saying stuff like 'good on you". I blushed and turned to Joey whose mouth was still hanging open in awe. I chuckled 'come on lets get to class" I said once again returning to my warm, old self. I linked arms with Joey and he led me to class.

Secretly I thought to myself not a bad way to start the day huh?

A/N well you definitely saw a new part of Shelby and that she is starting to open up. If you have any ideas for later chapters please tell me! I think that's it so please R&R!

Next time….
