Chapter 9
"He said, what!" Kari, Keiko and Kagome yelled in unison, after Alexis had told them what happened between her and Jaden.
Alexis had her face pressed onto the pillows on Kari's bed, sobbing, "He said that hated me and never wants to see me again," She sobbed.
"So what now?" Kari asked, "You still want us to try to get Jaden back to you."
Alexis sniffed, "I don't want to answer that question right now, Kari."
"Alexis, I know something that could help," Keiko said, in a sad tone, "You remember that fight that I had with Yusuke and at some he said that he hated me, but that didn't stop me from wanting to talk to him."
The blonde sniffed again, "That's different, Keiko," she told the brunette, "Yusuke didn't see you kiss the guy twice." Alexis let's out a cough, "Thanks you guys, I really appreciate your help, but now there's no hope right now."
Kari eyed the door and walked towards it, "Hey Kari, what are you doing?" Kagome asked
"Someone's eavesdropping us," Kari replied as she opened the door to reveal Jasmine and Mindy falling to the ground. The two Obelisk girls looked up to see Kari, with her arms crossed and glaring at them, "What the hell are you two doing here?" she asked, "Or better yet, you've everything that was said he didn't you?"
The girls laughed in unison and got up, "Listen, we know that you guys are angry about what we did but……" Jasmine was cut off, "I thought I told you that I never wanted to see you guys ever again!" Alexis yelled, "You two got some nerves coming here after the damage that you've inflicted!" Kagome added
"We know that what we did was wrong," Mindy said, "We should have left you and Jaden alone, we didn't expect the result to be like this."
Alexis snorted, "That has got to be the most corniest apology, I've ever heard! I told you two that I loved Jaden and he loved me back, but want did you two did, you made him hate me!" she yelled as she sat up and glared at her now former roommates.
"Hey this wouldn't have happened if you had if had gone with one of the Obelisks boys, we've picked for you, instead of that Slifer Slacker!" Mindy spat, which wasn't the wisest thing to do, "Did you ever think about what you did to poor Harrington!"
"Hey that Slifer Slacker happened to beat all of the best, with the exception of Zane, duelist in this school!" Keiko spat at the Obelisk girls, "And you two don't even rate his dueling skills and I bet Jaden could beat you two in a duel, with his hands tied behind his back, if he wanted! As for Harrington, that bastard had asked for an ass kicking and he got it!"
"So, basically, if you're making fun of Jaden," Kagome added, "You're really making fun of yourselves!"
Alexis glared at the two Obelisk girls with a lot of anger and hatred, "You two got till the court of three to get out of here, before I rip out your heads!" she yelled as she sat up and glared at her now former roommates, "For now on, we're no longer friends, NOW GET OUT!"
The two left the room, with gloomy facial expressions. As they were walking in the hallways, Jasmine and Mindy were hurt be Alexis's words of never seeing them again and no longer friends, "Mindy, you know what we have to do to make things better right?" Jasmine asked
Mindy sighed in disappointment, "I know but it's so unfair, we were only doing it for Alexis's own good."
"But we have to do it."
Mindy groaned in frustration, "Okay, I guess we could do that."
At the Slifer Dorm in the night, Chazz, Yusuke, Ryoko and Syrus were walking up the stairs to see how Jaden was doing. Syrus opened the door to reveal Jaden, who was lying on his left side, with his hand supporting his head and had an angry expression.
"Hey Jay!" Syrus greeted as he and the others walked in, but the brunette didn't respond
"Hey Jaden, if it makes you feel any better, I've got happen today on tape," Yusuke said, "We can show it to Kari and you can move on with life."
Jaden looked over his shoulder, "Good, I hope it's soon!" he said
"Jaden!" Syrus screamed, in frustration
"Look Sy, I'm not in the mood to talk about it," Jaden said, "I just want that drama queen out of my life and Kari is going to do it."
"But to kill her," Chazz yelled, "Getting even, I'm okay with it, but to kill!"
"Look, I already told her that I hated her and never want to see her again."
This surprised everyone, "You said that to Alexis?" Chazz said, in disbelief, "Somehow, I don't believe it."
"Well you better believe it," Jaden said, "And getting rid of HER would make me happy, even if it's through death!"
"Ouch! That has to hurt!" Ryoko said
"Yeah, I never heard Jaden say that to anyone," Syrus said
"Yeah, same here and I'm the one, who says that about him." Chazz added
Just then there came sounds of footsteps coming to the dorm and the others turned to see Jasmine and Mindy walking towards them, with guilty looks on her faces, "What do you two want?" Ryoko asked, in a sour tone
"Is Jaden here?" Jasmine asked
"Yeah and if it's from Rhodes than we don't want to hear!" Yusuke yelled
"Yusuke, wait!" Jaden said, as he sat up to face them, "Let's hear what's in the drama queen's message, before we send them out!"
Jasmine and Mindy walked in and got on their knees, which surprised Yusuke and the Slifers, "Okay, we confess!" Jasmine said
"Yeah, we're the ones, who wrote that letter to you and put Alexis's name in it!" Mindy added, "Now Alexis isn't talking to us anymore!"
"We're really sorry!" Jasmine and Mindy said in unison
Jaden snorted again, "Oh please, after everything that has happened to me, you'd expect me to believe that!"
"It's the truth!" Mindy said, "Alexis really loves you and we're really sorry that we did that to you."
"And we're afraid that Alexis would do something drastic soon!" Jasmine added
Jaden narrowed his eyes, "If I really had a heart, I would have cared, but I don't!" he said, "And complements to your so-to-be-dead queen, my heart is broken!"
"What do you mean by 'so-to-be-dead'?" Mindy asked
"I've got what happened today and that day caught on tape and when Kari sees it, goodbye Alexis Rhodes!" Yusuke said, with triumph
"How could you say that!" Jasmine asked
"Yeah, we just confessed that we're ones that we're the ones that wrote the letter!" Mindy added
Jaden crossed his arms, "Oh then, answer me this, WHY THE HELL AM I DOUBTING YOU TWO RIGHT NOW!" he yelled
"It's the truth!" came a voice
Just then, Zane walked into the dorm, "Big bro!" Syrus called out
"Jaden, it's the truth, Alexis didn't write that letter, you were fooled by these two," Zane told him and pointing at Jasmine and Mindy, "She really does love you and was hurt at what you said to her and that's understandable because you were fooled."
Jaden let's out a small chortle, "Oh great, Rhodes is such a great actor, even Zane fell for it," he said
"Oh believe me," Zane said, while crossing his arms and his eyes closed, "If she was acting, I would have picked it up! Let me ask you this Jaden, if Alexis was acting that she loved you, why is she still alive up till now?"
"That's easy, we haven't told Kari, on what happened?" Yusuke said, in a cold tone, "But soon……"
Zane rolled his eyes and eyed Chazz, "Chazz, exactly how many times has Kari inflicted pain to you, when you were an Obelisk and you were picking on Slifers!"
"Many times than I can count and I still got the bruises, right now!" Chazz replied
"What's that got to do with anything?" Jaden asked
"I'm saying that Hiei, the fire demon had showed Alexis, I, even Kari the images of who were the ones, who wrote that letter and put it in your locker, Jaden." Zane said, in a matter-of-fact tone
"How!" Chazz said, "With that weird third eye of his that Hiei has at his forehead!"
"Exactly, if Kari had known that an Obelisk, like Alexis was toying with a Slifer's emotions, Kari would have fried Alexis, with her spirit gun!"
"That's right, because Kari is more compassionate to Slifers than she is with Obelisks and Ras!" Ryoko said, "So, she would have killed Alexis, no time flat!"
Jaden laughed, "Yeah right, you'd expect me to believe that!"
"Uh Jaden," Yusuke said, "I don't think Zane is kidding and we've made a very huge mistake!"
Jaden looked at Yusuke, with disbelief, "What are you saying, Yusuke?" he asked, "You exactly believe Zane's story!"
Yusuke eyed the brunette, "Zane wouldn't trick us like this, especially you," he said, "And probably the way that Hiei would show Zane, Kari and Alexis these images would be the Jagan eye."
"The Jagan Eye!" Jaden slapped his forehead, while realizing the mistake that he made, "Oh damn it, we did make a mistake!" he exclaimed, thinking about how big of a jerk he had become towards Alexis and told her that he hated her. The angry brunette glared his brown eyes at Jasmine and Mindy, "Why the hell did you two have to screw things up!" he yelled
"We said that we're sorry!" Jasmine yelled
"You think sorry is going to help!" Jaden yelled back, "I told Alexis that I hated her and never want to see her ever again all because of you two!"
"Hey don't yell at us!" Mindy yelled, "How are we supposed to know it would end like this!"
"Did you ever think about the consequence!" Yusuke yelled, "Sometimes, I wonder how stupid can you two get! Well I guess, we found out how!"
"Well, it's not too late to apologize, you know," Zane said
"It's not to that easy," Jaden said, in a sad tone, "I told her that I hated her and never wanted to see her ever again, I'd doubt that she'll want to see me again."
"Jaden, Alexis really wants to see you again," Zane said
"But there's one huge problem," Jaden said, while holding up his right index finger, symbolizing 'one', "I'm not allowed in the girls Obelisk dormitory!"
"We could tell her that for you," Jasmine said
"No way!" Zane exclaimed, "Alexis threatened to kill you two if you two ever face her again."
"I'll can tell her!" came a voice and everyone turned their eyes towards Kari, who was by the door, "Big sis!" Yusuke said
"Thanks Kari!" Jaden said, with a smile
Later at night, Keiko and Kagome agreed to sleep in Kari's room to try to help Alexis. Speaking of, the blonde couldn't sleep, not that the couch was comfortable, it was because she was thinking about what happened and Keiko's words about Yusuke saying that he hated her, one time. She wanted to see Jaden so bad, but she knew that he didn't want to see her again. This was starting to annoy her, so she decided to go for a walk, as she grabbed her light blue robe, putting it on covering her light blue tanktop and dark pajama pants and walked out the room without waking anyone. As she was getting out of the Obelisk dormitory, Alexis thought about Keiko's words and she didn't like it at all, but it looked like it was the only choice she has, 'I know that Jaden doesn't want to see me ever again, but that's not going to stop me.' She thought
Alexis got to the Slifer Dorm and walked up the stairs, then saw through the window that the lights were out. She got onto the railing and jumped onto the roof, then crawled until she got to the other side. Alexis then lowered herself as she hang onto the edge of the roof and opened the window, gently. She crawled into the window and jumped down to the ground. She looked around to see no one around, but a sleeping Jaden on his bed. After closing the window, Alexis walked towards to get a better look and Jaden was sleeping, 'Damn it, he's asleep!' she thought
Just then, Jaden's sleeping form moaned, "I should have known……" he talked in his sleep, which got Alexis's attention, 'What is he dreaming about?' she thought as she got closer, "Go away you actress…" he said as he turned away, which caused Alexis to pull an anime fall.
Alexis then got up and glared at the sleeping Jaden, with a small orange anime vein on her head, 'Great, even in his sleep, he wants me gone!' she thought and calmed down a bit. Alexis sat onto Jaden's bed and sighed, 'Well it's now or never,' she thought and looked at the sleeping Jaden, "Jaden, I know that you told me that you never wanted to see me again, but even if you're sleep I want to tell you that even if you said that you hated me, I'd want let you now that my feelings for you never changed for an instant. That day, when Harrington kissed me, I tried to fight back and I'd never wanted to kiss that creep. I'm sorry that you had to see that and that damn letter. I know it must have hurt you inside, but I'd never intentionally hurt you and I know that you wouldn't either! I've missed seeing your innocent, silly and awkward smile and those two, who should remain nameless, destroyed it." She said the last words in a harsh tone, "That doesn't matter now, what matters is that I want to let you that," there was a short pause, "That I love you, Jaden Yuki! I'd just wish that you heard that and we can start getting even with those two and see how they like it if they were the ones getting their emotions toyed with." Just then, she felt a hand onto hers and the blonde turned to see Jaden, who was opening his eyes and sitting up. This surprised Alexis so much that her heart was beating to fast as she sees the brunette looking at her, with eyes no longer tainted with hurt, malice, anger, betrayal and hatred, but with trust, kindness, purity, remorse, forgiveness and love, plus a smile to her.
Jaden snatches his right cheek, with a smile on his face, "Hey nice speech!" he told her
Alexis was surprised and blushed, "How much did you here?" she asked
"Practically, the whole thing and I knew it was for real," Jaden said and looked down in guilt, remember all the rotten things that he had and would have done to Alexis, "Alexis, I'm sorry, I've been such a complete jerk to you for the past days! Correction, a complete bastard to you, I guess when I saw that letter and the creep Harrington kissing you, I guess I lost it. I understand that you'll kept having admirers and would do anything to get us to break up, and you couldn't help it and I'm sorry that I said that I hated you. What I'm trying to say that I'm sorry and I really love you." As a result, Alexis threw her arms around Jaden's neck, hugging him, which knocked him back on his back, "Gees, somebody has gotten a bit athletic in three days!" Jaden complimented.
Alexis laughed at that compliment, "You were never a bastard, you were just fooled that's all," she whispered, "Plus, you're forgiven, okay," she kissed the brunette's cheek.
Jaden then wrapped his arms around the blonde's waist, "You know, don't take this the wrong and perverted way but I think you should sleep here, it's the least I do since the way I've been treating you."
Alexis purred, "Thanks Jay!" she whispered
"Okay, now get off, I'll get the futon and………"
"No!" Alexis interrupted, "You're so comfortable to sleep on and I don't think I want to move!"
Jaden rolled his eyes and sighed, "Okay, fine then you can sleep on me for the night."
Alexis smiled and raised her head up to meet Jaden's brown eyes, then had her lips fall onto his for a kiss. Jaden then returned the kiss to the blonde and pulled back and smiled, "I love you." He said
Alexis smiled tenderly, "I love you too." She said laid her head onto Jaden's right shoulder.
"Is it true that you crushed Harrington's balls?" Jaden asked, which surprised Alexis, "Well, yeah the dumb bastard asked for it," she said, firmly
"Now, I really don't want to get on your bad side!" Jaden said, "I bet that he'll back off of you!"
"That's what I'm hoping for."
Please review and give me some ideas
