Chapter 2
Normal POV
After about ten minutes, everyone had stopped crowding around Serenity and continued with the warm ups. The teacher assured her that she will teach Serenity how to do gymnastics again. Serenity thanked her and patiently waited in one corner for the teacher to finish with the other students. The teacher made the students repeat some dance moves and told them to practice while she helped Serenity. They moved towards the corner where Kaiba was.
Kaiba's POV
How pathetic! Those girls aren't anything close to grace! I should've known that ballet class was for desperate girls that wanted to become graceful. Talk about graceful. The mutt, Devlin and their pencil headed friend should be here. Their as graceful as a dizzy drunk trying to walk in a straight line. No wonder the mutt's sister's here. She's not exactly graceful as a swan! Now what? Why is that pathetic teacher walking towards me? Is that Wheelerete with her? UGH! What do they want?
Normal POV
"Now Serenity, we will use this part of the room for your practices because we have more mats here and it's far away from the other girls and so they won't hit you." explained the teacher.
Why is she telling me this?thought Serenity." Um...teacher? Can I start with something easy?" Serenity barged in her little one sided conversation.
"Of course honey! Do you want to start out with something like sommersaults?" the teacher asked.
"hmmm...okay.." she said hesitantly.
Then the teacher went on about how to do a sommersault. Obviously, Serenity wasn't paying any attention and was staring off and thinking in her own world.
Kaiba's POV
I wonder what she's thinking. Oh well..why do I care?Why is she smiling at me again?Why is she waving her hands around her head?damn girls! Can't live with them, Can live without them! But they just WON'T stay away from me will they? Why do I even bother looking good? Is that why i get several hundred calls everyday? Because girls think I'm attractive? Why am I thinking these thoughts? Huh...I've got to stop wandering off in my thoughts!
Serenity was trying to listen to the teacher but she was just going too fast for Serenity to catch up onto. So Serenity started to daze off into her own world...
Serenity's POV
What's wrong with me? I've never felt this good just because someone didn't feel sorry for me! I don't think he knew what it meant to me though. But what if he did? No way! he wouldn't know how you feel! He was just being a jerk since he doesn't want to apologize to you! But what if he meant it in a good way? Serenity wrestled in her thoughts. The little devil of her conciousness was telling her that he was just being a jerk and the angel was saying that there could be a chance that he knew how she felt. She felt as if she was going to faint with both conciousness' argueing in her thoughts so she swung her hands around her heads and what do you know? They disappeared. Much to the relief of Serenity. She smiled when she saw that Kaiba was looking at her in a thoughtful expression. But soon she stopped when she felt a tap on her shoulder.
Normal POV
"Serenity? SERENITY? Are you listening to me?" asked the teacher.
"H..huh? Oh..yeah..yeah.." replied a shaken Serenity
"Repeat what I said then." said the teacher.
"What I said then."
The teacher was furious. She was about to scream at Serenity, when she heard a burst of laughter. She turned around to face non other than Seto Kaiba. Although the laughter was coming from there, he wasn't laughing. She turned to the door that was right beside Kaiba and saw three figures. She noticed that they were trying to slip out of the room but were failing miserably since all three of them were trying to go out at the same time.
"Mr. Kaiba. Could you be kind enough to bring those three to me?" asked the teacher.
"EWWWW. I don't want to touch Wheeler."whined Kaiba. Just kidding. This is what really happened.
"EWWW..I don't want Kaiba touching me!"
"Brother?" asked Serenity.
"Uh..uh..yeah?" Joey nervously replied
"Why are you here and who's that with you?"questioned Serenity.
"That's Devlin and Taylor and I bet their stalking you." replied Kaiba coldly.
"Shut up Kaiba. Yeah, that's Duke and Tristan and we just wanted to make sure you were safe from princess Kaiba."toned Joey.
"Watch it!" replied Kaiba.
"Brother.Leave.Now."Serenity said sternly.
"B...but!"started Joey.
"No buts Joey Wheeler! Now get YOUR but outta here!" Serenity screamed as she started to lose her patience. She is a Wheelere ya kno?
"Okay sis...but be careful!" exclaimed Joey as he started to leave with Duke and Tristan behind him.
After a while, Kaiba got bored so while the teacher was gone somewhere to get something, he challenged the girls to dance in front of him with him asa judge. All the girls lined up except for Serenity. She didn't want to dance for Kaiba like a slave and didn't feel like facing him when she was angry.
Kaiba smirked as all the girls were doing fine until he glared at them and then they would stumble and fall flat an the floor.He was surprised that Wheeler's sister was not dancing for him and decided to toy around with her. He walked up to her and started to talk to her.
"Hey Wheelerete."snapped Kaiba.
"It's Serenity."replied Serenity who was still in a fowl mood.
"Anyways,Wheelerete."continued Kaiba.
"What?"Serenity said gruffly.
"Dance."He stated coolly.
"Why should I" asked Serenity as she glared at him.
"So your not good enough?" Kaiba said trying to intimidate her into doing what he wanted her to do.
"I'm good enough but I'm not that dumb to not realise that you just want me to dance so you can insult me."spat the reddish brunette.
"How observing." replied Kaiba."Oh well. I guess your just a coward like I thought you would be" he said as he slowly stroded away from her.
"I am NOT a coward!"screamed Serenity which seemed to attract some attention.
"Well well well. It seems that your attitude doesn't fit your name Wheeler."sneered Kaiba.
"I intend to keep my reputation and not lose my pride from dancing for you!"whispered Serenity afraid of losing it again and screaming.
"Like you have any."muttered Kaiba.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" screamed Serenity not knowing that she was screaming again.
"What's wrong? Did I say something?" asked Kaiba putting on an innocent face.
" Don't act innocent with me Kaiba or..or...!" Serenity said lowering her tone.
"Or what?" asked Kaiba already being amused.
" Or just goddamn it! Fine! I'll just dance! Ugh! It's better than talking to you all day!" Serenity said as she gave in.
"Good. Now go." Kaiba smirked at the thought that yet agian, he has won an argument.
Serenity picked a short song and began dancing. She didn't look at Kaiba once since she didn't want to mess up. Towards the end of the dance, she did a spin and she tripped over the carpet falling backwards onto the mats.
"Well well well. Just as I suspected. You can't even do the most simple dance there is to do. Just like a Wheeler. Can't do anything right." smirked Kaiba as he just walked past her body on the ground.
"Aren't you going to help me up?"asked Serenity.
"No. Why should I" Kaiba said as he glared down at her.
Serenity had lost it. She had lost her patience. As tears of anger spilled down her cheeks she yelled at him without considering the consequences that she could face." GODDAMN YOU SETO KAIBA! YOU HEARTLESS BASTARD!HOW COULD YOU SAY MY FAMILY IS LOW WHEN YOURS IS WORSE!ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS YOURSELF ADN KAIBA CORP!"screamed Serenity at the top of her lungs.
"And I care about Mokuba.."growled Kaiba.
"THAT'S NOT TRUE! YOU NEVER HANG OUT WITH HIM AND YOU BARELY EVEN TALK TO HIM! IS THAT HOW A FAMILY IS SUPPOSED TO BE! NO! A FAMILY IS SUPPOSED TO CARE FOR EACH OTHER AND YOU'RE NOT CARING FOR HIM!"yelled Serenity.
"I care for Mokuba more than anything in the world."stated Kaiba.
"OH YEAH? THEN WHY DID MOKUBA COME RUNNING UP TO ME LAST WEEK TO TELL ME THAT IT FEELS LIKE YOU DON'T EVEN CARE FOR HIM? HUH? HE SAID THAT HE'D BE HAPPIER WITHOUT KAIBA CORP AS LONG AS HE HAD YOU! You know Kaiba,I told him to give you time to work it out, but that's never going to happen. So you better not insult MY family when yours isn't doing any better." With that, she ran out of the building and into her brother's car that she knew was here. As soon as she entered, her brother, Duke and Tristan started questioning her about what happened.
