Chapter 3:

A new Girl

Note: Hideko is mine!

"Hey, Yami!" A voice called. Yami was just walking down the street to school letting Yugi catch up with Tea' and Tristan. "Hello, Joey, Serenity," Yami waved back as the group headed off the school. As the group walked on, Yami saw a young girl about his age with short brown hair and a white head band, her hazel eyes glancing at her hands. She wore the female uniform for the school and she seemed real nervous.

Blushing slightly, Yami walked over to the young one. "Uh…Hello," he said shyly. The girl looked up at him and smiled. "Hi," she said sweetly. Yami's cheeks turned bright pink. "Um…are…you new here?"

"Yeah. I just came from Texas," the girl smiled standing up. "Wh-what's…your name?" Yami asked still blushing. "Hideko Roberts," the girl said extending her hand. Yami looked confused at the gesture seeing that he knew it yesterday. Hideko giggled. "You shake it, silly! That's what we Americans do as a greeting," she smiled.

Yami nodded slowly and hesitantly reach out his hand taking her in his. "I'm…Yami…Yami Mutoh," Yami said. Hideko smiled and shook his hand. Yami glanced down seeing that he was still holding her hand. "Sorry…" he said blushing and taking his hand away. Hideko just giggled. "So Yami, what's your first class?" she asked. "Uh…Algebra. You?" Yami asked.

"I have that class too!" Hideko cried. "Really? Uh…shall I walk you there?" Yami asked.

"Sure," Hideko said.

"Alright," Yami blushed as he held the door for her. The two walked to class together and Yami blushed at her the whole way there, making the new student giggle.

During Algebra, everyone was busy with their work and Mr. Mido was asleep. Hideko was struggling on the work as well. Setting down her pencil she put her head in her hands. "Man…" she moaned.

Yami noticed her struggles as he was almost done with his work. He glanced at the teacher to make sure he was asleep. "Need some help, Hideko?" he asked.

"Oh, do I ever," Hideko said. "Let me see your work and I'll see what I can do," Yami smiled reaching for her work. She watched as Yami studied the sheet and smiled. He is so smart…and one cute guy to boot! She thought.

Yami smiled at the paper. "Ah, I see what you did wrong," he said. He guided her through the problem and wrote notes down for her. "You understand it now?"

"Oh yeah! Thanks!" Hideko smiled kissing him on the cheek. Yami blushed slightly touching his cheek. "Heh…I try my best," he smiled as he returned to his work.

After school, Hideko was walking home carrying her books. From across the street, Yami was walking home as well before he saw her. Smiling he waved and ran to her. "Hideko! Wait up!" he called.

"Hey!" Hideko cried waving as he caught up with her. "So did you enjoy your first day?" Yami asked.

"Yeah," Hideko smiled.

"Want me to walk you home?" Yami asked.

"Sure!" Hideo smiled. As they walked on, Yami sighed. "There's something I want to ask you," he said.

Hideko stopped under a tree. "What is it?" she asked blushing.

"…this may seem kind of sudden but…" Yami sighed taking a deep breath. "Would you like to go on a date with me sometime?" he asked in one breath.

Hideko blushed and giggled. "I'd love too!"

Yami looked up turning pink. "Really?"

"Yeah. How does tomorrow at the movies sound?"

"Sure. What movie?"

Hideko smirked. "How about 'the Ring' at 7:30?"

"I'm there."

Hideko smiled and took out a piece of paper and wrote something on it and gave it to him. "Here's my cell. Call me!" she said kissing him on the cheek and walking away.

Yami blushed and waved heading back to the Game Shop.

After school the next day, Yami went to his room and looked in his closet trying to figure out what to wear. He pulled out his black tank top and black jeans and boots. He walked out of the house and went to the theater to wait for Hideko.

Then a blue Mitsubishi eclipse rove up and Hideko stepped out wearing a light blue shirt and a black skirt with sky blue flowers on it. She also wore flip flops with a little flower design between the toes and she wore gold earrings that looked like coins and wore a necklace with a wizard holding a crystal ball around her neck.

Yami was in awe of her beauty and walked toward her as the car drove away. "You…you look…magnificent," he whispered taking her hand and kissed it softly. Hideko blushed. "Thank you," she said with a giggle. Yami smiled and the walked into the theatre getting their snacks along the way.

Halfway into the movie, Hideko got scared and clung onto Yami's shirt. Yami blushed at the contact but put his arms around her. "It's alright. I'm here," he whispered.

Soon the movie was over and the couple walked out. "What did you think?" Yami asked.

"Very suspenseful," Hideko said with a shiver. "And yet scary!"

Yami chuckled. "What did you think?" Hideko asked.

"Let's just say I won't watch TV or answer the phone for a while," Yami said.

Hideko laughed. "Same here!"

"Can I talk to you privately for a second?" Yami whispered. "Sure," Hideko said confused as they went to a more less crowded area. "What is it?" Hideko asked cocking her head.

Yami sighed nervously. "This may seem sudden, but…" he took a deep breath trying to calm himself. "Hideko…even though I knew you for only two days but I have to say this…I…I love you."

Hideko gasped as tears were about to fall. "I…I love you too…" she whispered as her tears fell. Yami smiled and wiped away her tears with his thumb. Hideko leaned into his touch smiling softly. Yami lifted up her chin gazing into her hazel eyes. He closed his own as his lips met hers. Hideko's eyes widened and closed her eyes deepening the kiss and wrapping her arms around his neck.

Yami deepened it more putting his hands around her waist. They pulled away after a while. "I love you…so much…" he whispered. Hideko held him tightly smelling the sweet cologne on his neck.

"Let's go home," he whispered walking away holding her hand.
