NB: I have narrations for different characters.
Karla: I was sitting alone, wasting my precious time at my Inspiration Point (the cove where Syrus nearly rafted off the island in episode 8 "For the Sake of Syrus"), sitting on the shore, kicking my legs in the half-frozen water and thinking about what happened earlier on today. As I stared at the orange sky and looked down at the dark ocean, I plan what I'm gonna say to him. Syrus, of course. I glanced at the Slifer Red dorms, thinking, Will Syrus notice me anymore? I hope he does. In fact, I think I'm in love. And I'm in heaven! Ai, Ai, Ai, I'm your little butterfly... "Green, black and blue make the colours in the sky..."
Syrus: Was there anything I'm not sorry for? I let Jaden invade me and Karla's campfire, let Karla misinterpret my conversation with Blair, caused Karla to get lost in a forest for 37 days, and have Pearl tell of her first kiss. She must hate me. Then, I ran outside for no reason and saw Karla in the water. There was a breeze coming around, so despite my low abilities to swim, I dived in (more like jumped in) and pulled Karla out. She was out in the deep so I had to go out and trust my luck. I grabbed hold of her hand and it felt frozen solid. When we both reached surface, Karla was breathing heavily. I carried her up to her room in the Slifer Red dorm.
Karla:
Ah-choo! I was pulled out of the waters and I was sitting with Syrus.
I was under the covers. I felt so weird that anything landing on me
felt heavy. A tray with pumpkin and chicken soup landed on me as if
an elephant just sat on moi. He lifted up the spoon and held
it towards my face. I sipped the soup off the spoon and felt a warm
sensation tingling as I sucked the spoon. Then, he left the room just
after he...he...
kissed me on the cheek. I suddenly felt red hot
with a feeling of paradise. My face was bright pink. He came back and
felt me on the head. He told me I was burning up and suggested rest.
But how could I rest knowing that he loves me?
A few weeks later...
Syrus: It was in the middle of the night. I couldn't sleep. I was sitting in my room when I heard a guitar tuning in Karla's room. Then a lovely song. I listened and realized that Karla was playing the tune. I climbed down and went to Karla's room. She suddenly told me, "I am so nervous about these tests tomorrow, I could barely sleep. So to help me calm down, I weave my worries into a song which I sing and play on guitar." I gulp. Karla and I haven't studied! This was really out of control. We had cared more for ourselves than getting through life!
Karla:
Once Syrus told me I hadn't studied, I felt the need to grab out my
books and look. But they were all covered with notes…about Syrus
and me! I felt the need to die. But he stopped me by saying, "You
don't have any info, do you? Well, look here." He showed me his
notebook
yet it was covered with the same thing! This is a
nightmare. What can we do? Well, we could at least get some sleep. It
would refresh our brains.
The next morning...
Karla: I was woken by Jaden, who was more than eager to do the job. Of waking me up, that is. I nicknamed him "my 6:30 alarm." I chased myself out the door and went to the place where the test was held. When it started, I opened up my booklet and looked at the first question, "What is a field spell?" Despite my Slifer Red status, I knew the answer. That is, if Syrus didn't get in the way. I suddenly fell on the desk and fell into a sleep.
I was worried of what would happen to me. Oh, and Syrus. I'm sure he flunked it as well. During one of our classes, our names were announced. I was scared. We were handed back our tests and told why us two were getting 0 on our test and not paying attention in class. I replied that it was stupid, well, if Syrus didn't silence me. I looked at his hand and searched along his elongated arm and thought, Syrus, it's all your fault.
