Mel was dropped off to school in a nice very cool….yellow bus. Her driver was taking a "leave of absence", a.k.a, was fired. Her father was too lazy to get someone else to get another one yet, so she was on the bus. She was fine with that, it was a better chance to test if she was gorgeous, and it worked. Her white off the shoulder short sleeve small V-neck top with a spaghetti strap tank underneath, with ripped jean short shorts, a red and white cherry scarf belt, and one red beaded necklace and once white beaded necklace wrapped around her neck twice, but still fell just above her shorts, cherry earrings, the perfect makeup and sloppy bun hair, blue Louie Vuiton flip-flops, outfit, was to die for. This outfit was hot! Not to mention she had the entire package, big boobs, big butt, nice legs, skinny, etc. She turned heads. She couldn't help grinning at the thought of how the guys Mokuba would react. She made a mental note to thank her fashion coordinator after school. Hey, she was a girl on a mission! She had to look good, even if she technically didn't do it herself.

She got off the bus and walked down the walkway. With every step another guy's turned a head. With ever step another guy gave her the once over. Even a few guys whistled! She was defiantly flaunting it.

Step one: look hot…, check.

"Hey Mokuba," She greeted as she stopped next to him, to engage in the conversation… or stop it.

"Um…hey…, what's up?" He was shocked. I mean whoa! A very hot girl, who he liked, just stopped to see him. Talk about luck.

Only it wasn't luck. It was a plan.

"Oh nothing much. I just thought I would say 'hi' to a friend. Oh…I'm sorry…did I interrupt something?" She asked, knowing full well that she did.

"No, you started something, babe, and it happens to be in the pants," One of Mokuba's friend whispered to another friend. Mokuba elbowed him, hard. The friend didn't seem to mind.

"Excuse me? I missed that," She stated, even though she heard.

"Oh nothing…." He responded.

She just gave him a confused look and turned back to Mokuba.

"Umm, Mokuba, can you help me find my locker? Yesterday another student helped me, but I don't remember where it is," She asked, trying to look as innocent as possible.

"Sure, no problem, I'll see you later guys," Mokuba linked arms with Mel, and waved good-bye. As they left they could hear faint "Aw man"'s, "darn it"'s etc.

"Sorry about my friends, they can be immature sometimes, don't judge me by them, please," Mokuba told her.

"Oh it's fine, I won't judge you. Thanks again for walking me to my locker. This school is so big, and it helps to have a guide, especially one as cute as you," She giggled. Mokuba blushed. Whoa, this was perfect.

"Um, thanks…here's you locker, I'll see you during science…bye," He walked away.

Oh my god! She freakin' called me cute! This is great! Maybe I'll ask her to the dance this Friday. But first I got to tell her about myself, so she doesn't have an excuse again. Mokuba thought.

"Ok class, we are going to do a little science lab, so you need lab partners," Mr. Tan explained, "And here's the best part, I'm choosing! Yay!"

Everyone in the class moaned.

"Oh you guys will live. I didn't choose horrible partners for you. And think about it, most of you lazy-bum's will get an A if I choose you the right person. It's much better getting and A with a bad partner, than failing with a friend."

The class shrugged in agreement.

"Ok then, here we go. Kane and Akira, Kisho and Amy, Raidon and Takara, Naomi and Greg, Yuri and Haru, Blake and Jenny, Danye and Kai, Jiro and Hana, Mimi and Yukio, and finally…. "

Oh my god, that leaves me and-Mokuba thought

"…Mokuba and Melody. Now I'm going to hand out the sheets and materials, have fun, and try not to kill yourselves," Mr. Tan finished.

"Cool, looks like we are partners!" Mel walked over to the lab tables and approached Mokuba, "Now I don't know how anything is, that's what sucks about coming in so late."

"Don't worry, I'm here to help," He smiled.

As they are doing the experiment…..

"So, tell me about yourself, I don't know much about you Mr. Mysterious," Mel joked.

"Um…ok… I'm Mokuba Kaiba, I have an 18 year old older brother, named Seto, but only I can call him that, everyone else calls him Kaiba. Um…my parents died when I was little…,"

"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry. My mom died days after I was born, so I kinda know how you feel," She explained.

"Yeah, it sucks. I live with my brother in our huge house. He works a lot, so I don't get to see him that much, but I like him. Have you heard of Kaiba Corp.?" He asked.

"Um, no, what is it?" She was lying straight through her pearly white teeth.

BOOSH! A puff of smoke blew right up in there faces.

Mokuba coughed, "I don't think (cough) that was right…."

"Same," She coughed back.

Mokuba tried to see what went wrong on the sheet, but kept talking.

"Well, Kaiba Corp is, like all about dueling, do you know what that is?" Mokuba questioned.

"Not a clue," This time she was telling the truth. She knew that Kaiba Corp. had to do with dueling, but no one actually got around to telling her what it was.

"Well, that's hard to explain, but K.C. has to do a lot with it. Ya see my brother is the CEO of it; hence 'KAIBA Corp.', and I will be too, once I get old enough. Since he runs it, he works hard hours, thus making him kind of a bastard, but he's only nice to me." Mokuba explained.

"Awww, that's so sweet. I don't have any brothers or sisters. It's just me and my dad, and a bunch of his maids." She told him.

"Cool. So, I've lived in Domino City all my life, but I was adopted when I was younger, by my late step-father, I don't want to talk about that. Um…I like dueling, watching TV, the computer, video games, and hanging out with my friends, tell me about you" He said.

"Ok, I'm Melody Harting, I live with my father, he works in dueling as well, um, I moved here from L.A., in the US, a little while ago. My mom died from a disease, like I said. I was sent to live with my aunt, 'cause my dad works hard hours too. But then she died, so I was sent here again. I like the same stuff you do plus shopping, minus the dueling. Uh… I don't know what more to say, I'm not that interesting," She explained.

"Melody! Mokuba! Are you two doing your work?" Mr. Tan shouted.

They were immediately diverted from their conversation to Mr. Tan.

"Yes!" They yelled back in unison.

"Good," Then the teacher turned around and walked away.

"Wow. OK, Um…." Mokuba started to say.

"Yes…." She knew what was coming.

"You see, I really like you, and I just told you about myself, and there's this dance on Friday, and I was wondering," He took a deep breath, "If you would like to go with me."

"Wow, you just don't give up do you? OK well," She let him linger a little, just because it's fun to see him squirm, "technically you are right, I did say I wanted to get to know you better, and I did. So….yes, I will go."

"Really! That's great!" He jumped up and…

Crash! The beaker fell onto the floor.

"Oops,"

Mel giggled, "It's fine,"

Mr. Tan whipped his head around.

"What did you two do! I told you to be careful! See me after-"

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiing

"Saved by the bell," Mel said, while running out of Mr. Tan's class with Mokuba.

Step two: get Mokuba as her boyfriend….check
