Well I don't really have much to say since I just started this new story. But hopefully I'll start getting more reviews later on for the upcoming chapters. People who read and review this story please let me know what you think about it.
Yeah and... I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh...now on with the chapter...
-Chapter 2-
----
Anita's white high-heels clicked on the shiny gray floor as she walked down a long hallway in Domino College. A white purse was slung over her shoulder as she carried a couple of textbooks in her arms. Some students were hanging out along the side of the hallway with their friends while others were rushing off to their classes. But Anita didn't seem to notice all this because she was consumed in thoughts of her own as she walked. 'Thank God I wasn't late for the first class or I'd be like fired by now' she thought as she kept walking down the hallway to her second class.
"Excuse me," a voice of a young man called out from behind.
Anita's thoughts were interrupted as she shot her head around to look behind her, "Me?" she asked the young man as she pointed at herself.
"Yes madam," he answered with a smile as he walked towards Anita.
Anita observed the young man closely as he stood right in front of her. He had particularly dark brown eyes that almost looked black and short, slick black hair that was gelled. He had a silver earring pierced in his left ear and he was wearing dark denim pants, a plain black t-shirt, a navy blue sports jacket, and a black side bag slung across his shoulder.
"Are you okay?" the young man asked, waving his hand in front of Anita's face.
"Oh sorry," Anita replied as she snapped out of her thoughts, "Did you say something?" she asked.
"Yes as a matter of fact I did," he replied, "Could you please tell me where the staff room might be?" He asked politely.
"Are you new here?" Anita asked, before answering his question.
"Yes I am," He replied with a smile.
"Well then you should meet the guidance and student councilor first," Anita responded. "They should be in the main office," she added.
"That's really nice of you, but I need to go to the staff room first," he repeated.
"But I really think you should meet the student and guidance councilor first, I mean you're new here right?" Anita asked.
"Yes...but I think you're misunderstanding me Miss...?" He said, pausing because he didn't know her name.
"Anita" she replied.
"Yes Miss Anita, you see I'm a-"
"Good morning Anita," Mrs. Kanami said from behind her. She was a senior and well-respected professor at the Domino College. She was a short and plump woman with dark brown hair and small green eyes that were hidden behind rimless glasses.
"Good morning Mrs. Kanami," Anita replied politely turning around.
"And who might you be young man? A new student I presume?" Mrs. Kanami asked with a plastered smile.
"No no, you see...I'm a new professor here and-" the young man tried to say but was interrupted once again.
"Oh so you're the new photography professor here! You're Sheniro Kazaki right?" Mrs. Kanami asked excitedly.
"Yes, right you are," Sheniro replied with a smile.
"Well nice to meet you Mr. Sheniro, welcome to the college! I'm Mrs. Kanami, a senior professor of language arts," she responded, putting her hand out.
"Nice to meet you too," Sheniro replied as he shook her hand.
"Well hope to see you around later," Mrs.Kanami beamed brightly. "See you at lunch break Anita," she said as she walked away from them.
"I'm sorry," Anita finally said after a long silence. She just couldn't believe that Sheniro was a professor here, he looked much younger than her and looked more like a student than a professor by the way he was dressed.
"For what?" Sheniro asked.
"I misunderstood you, I thought you were a student rather than a new professor here," Anita explained.
"Its alright," Sheniro chuckled. "I am very young looking aren't I?" he asked.
"Yes you are," Anita giggled. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have a class to teach," she said.
"Oh sure, go ahead," Sheniro smiled, "I'll see you later," He waved as Anita smiled and walked away to her class.
-------------------
Anita's stomach grumbled lowly as she walked down a hallway to the staff room. 'I just had two classes and I'm already hungry!' She thought as she put her hand on her stomach. 'And I had a whole plate of pancakes this morning!' She laughed as her stomach growled again. 'Well I guess it's lunch time for me now' She sighed as she walked towards the staff room doors. Then a thought hit her, 'Shit...I forgot to bring lunch today!' She remembered foolishly as she stopped right in front of the doors. 'I was in such a big hurry in the morning that I forgot to pack my lunch!' She mentally kicked herself for stupidity. She stared at the doors, 'Great, just great!' Just then Anita felt a light tap on her shoulder and turned around.
"Hi Miss. Anita," Sheniro said with a lop-sided grin.
"Hello," she replied with a forced smile.
"Having lunch here I suppose?" Sheniro asked.
"No actually...I forgot to make my lunch in the morning rush," Anita replied.
"Wow, what a coincidence! I did as well," he replied, "I was so nervous about my first day here that I forgot."
"I see..."Anita responded.
"Well then I guess we'll just have to buy our lunch at the cafeteria here," Sheniro suggested.
"Yeah..." Anita said, as they both headed towards the cafeteria.
On their way to the cafeteria, they were both silent. Sheniro kept stealing quick glances at Anita as she looked towards a different direction until they reached the cafeteria. They both entered without saying a word and quickly walked into the lunch line to order food. Anita held her tray of food, glancing around for a table to sit down at. She noticed that Sheniro was close behind her and wondered why he wasn't leaving to find himself a seat.
"Miss Anita..." Sheniro said clearing his throat, "If you don't mind, may I sit with you for lunch today?" He asked. Anita looked at him as she wondered if she should say yes or no. After all he was new here, so refusing him would seem a little rude.
"Oh sure, I don't mind," she finally replied as they sat down at a table near a big window.
"Thanks," Sheniro said as they both sat down facing opposite each other.
"So...what do you teach here?" Sheniro asked as he took off the top cover of his salad.
"Fashion designing," Anita replied as she unwrapped the plastic wrap of her sandwich.
"That's good..." he replied, "How long have you been teaching here?" he asked again, jabbing his fork into the lettuce.
"About six years," Anita replied as she took a bite out of her sandwich.
"Wow, that's great!" Sheniro exclaimed, "Is this your main profession?" He asked.
"Yeah, I guess I've done it for so long that I decided to stick with it," Anita smiled, "And what about you?" she asked.
"Well I just finished University, and I thought I would give a try at teaching," he replied.
"That's nice...you're teaching photography here right?" Anita said, "Do you have any interest in it?" she asked.
"In the matter of fact I do," Sheniro responded, "I work as a photographer for the local fashion magazine."
"Wow, that's great," she replied.
"Yeah, it's my favorite hobby," Sheniro added, "I also like making people laugh and smile with my jokes," he said.
"Really?" Anita chuckled, "I'm going to have to here some of these jokes of yours," she said.
"Would you like to here one now?" He asked.
"No actually I have my last class in a few minutes, so I'd love to hear them some other time," she said finishing up her sandwich quickly.
"Yeah same, I have one more class to go too," Sheniro replied as he also finished up his salad.

Ring! Ring!
Anita's cell phone started ringing as she walked out of the main college doors. She quickly took it out of her purse and flipped it open to answer the call.
"Hello," Anita said.
"Anita, it's me Seto, where are you right now?" Kaiba asked in his deep, husky voice.
"I'm outside of the college right now," Anita replied.
"All your classes are done?" He asked.
"Yes, I'm going to head home right now," Anita responded.
"Ok listen, I have some bad news," Kaiba said hesitantly.
"What is it?" She asked a bit worried.
"Well you know about the dinner I promised you this Thursday night? Well I..." Kaiba said as he paused for a second.
"Let me guess, you have a meeting or you have a lot of work to finish right?" Anita said, breaking him off.
"Yes, I'm sorry, please try to understand" He replied softly.
"Seto I understand but you always do this to me," Anita responded with a bit of frustration in her voice.
"I...know..." Kaiba replied with guilt, "Listen, how about I make it up to you on Friday night?" Kaiba suggested.
"You sure you don't have any work or meetings that day too?" Anita asked.
"Pretty sure," he replied.
"Fine then..." Anita sighed.
"Bye," Kaiba said as he hung up on the other line.
"Bye..." Anita said as she clicked her cell phone off and flipped it closed. 'Why does he always do this to me?' Anita thought as she stood there, right outside the doors. 'He always makes me feel secluded when he's with his work' she thought, 'It's like he doesn't have any time for me...is his work more important than me?' She was bathed in her thoughts when a voice interrupted her.
"Miss. Anita?" Sheniro called.
"Oh hi," Anita replied with a half-hearted smile.
"Are you feeling alright?" He asked as he noticed her emotionless face.
"I'm fine...its nothing really," Anita responded as she pushed her hair back behind her ear.
"You sure?" Sheniro asked, "Looks like you need to hear one of my jokes," he said.
"Um...sure..." she replied hesitantly.
"Ok then here it goes," Sheniro said, "A woman asked her lover, 'Darling, if we get engaged will you give me a ring?' 'Sure honey, I'll call you when I decide,' he answered." Anita started laughing and then smiled.
"I needed that," Anita chuckled.
"Would you like to hear another one?" Sheniro asked.
"I'd love to but I'm running late, I need to be back home right now," she replied with a smile.
"Oh ok..." Sheniro responded.
"Bye," Anita said as she turned around to leave.
"Wait," he called out as Anita looked back.
"Did you want to say something?" Anita asked.
"Yeah," Sheniro said, "Your smile is very beautiful, it's so very pure and natural," he said cheerfully.
"Thanks for the compliment," Anita smiled.
"You're welcome," Sheniro replied as Anita turned away. He wanted to compliment on more things about her breath-taking beauty he had observed, but kept silent and decided to wait for the right time...

Well hope you enjoyed the chapter people! I know that joke Sheniro said was lame but couldn't think of any at the moment. I'll try to get better jokes in the upcoming chapters...but you people can also suggest any good ones you know. I will try to update soon as possible. Please send reviews with any feedback possible!
