Dan's POV
Today has been the worst day of school ever. I had to sit next to Shun again which I was so happy about because I still classed him as my best friend even tho he did hit me but I didn't want to hold it against him after all his mum had just died and he was grieving. When he came in the room I tried my best to not look bothered but inside I was so giddy, my best friend back at school, when he pulled his chair away from me I honestly thought I was going scream at him but instead I decided to be mature take the high road and do the same. That was only the start we had PE later and I thought that if I lost he might forgive me but I highly doubted that since he did reject my offer earlier that day. I wasn't that bothered about that tho I mean what kind of friends don't fight granted most make up fairly quickly but still… oh who am I kidding he beat me fair and square and crushed me when he didn't accept my apology. "Drago I need some help, advice whatever you want to call it I need it" I whined to my partner who was sitting on my bed beside me. I hoped he would give me advice since he was my partner but me and Drago had only been partners for a few weeks and I obviously didn't know him as well as I thought because all he did was laugh at how pathetic I looked roll up into a ball and stated that he wasn't getting involved with my messed up version of a life and that I should sort my own problems out. I folded my arms across my chest and puffed my cheeks out to show I was annoyed. "At least I can change my expression you look constantly surprised" I muttered to myself hoping he wouldn't hear but obviously he did cos he had to hear what he shouldn't "At least I have friends that don't hit me" he countered. That was brutal. "Why do I even bother" I asked myself picking Drago up and starting my computer, if I couldn't get sympathy from him I could try and get some from my friends on the bakuroom, the bakuroom was a chat room that was created by this guy Joe he made it so that every kid who loved to play bakugan could log on and share their battles with their friends around the world it was also a place where you could check your ranking. Obviously I didn't get the sympathy I wanted because as soon as I logged on I had Runo's face cover my screen and her screaming at me "finally do you realise how long we've been waiting" "waiting for what?" I asked feeling very confused "you, you idiot" "ok, what did I do" I questioned her trying to figure out what I did wrong there's always some reason she's mad at me. "You lost!" "Oh that again" I sighed slumping in my chair, obviously Runo couldn't let me forget my humiliation, wait a second how'd she even know about that she was in a fight with Julie. "How do you know about me losing to Shun?" "Your so naïve Dan, you completely forgot that Marucho was there and he's the biggest gossip in the world didn't you." I mentally slapped myself how could I forget. "Anyway what were you and Julie fighting about" I asked trying to stop an awful conversation before it started. I'd had enough reminders of that torturous' hour today. Runo's screen zoomed out back into the top left hand corner of my screen "why don't you ask little miss know it all who remembers everything about anything." Julie sneered who was in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. "Know it all, just because I can remember where I slept last night" oh god not again I glanced at Marucho who's screen was next to Runo's he nodded at me and we simultaneously logged out. "I miss Shun, if we were still friends we'd be bitching about that lot right now." I told Drago leaning back against my chair putting my arms behind my head so I'd have something to lean it against. "How did you 2 meet?" he asked me. I smiled thinking back to that day…
Flash back
My mum was holding me in her arms trying to get me to sleep. It was a spring morning and we were in the park mum was nearly tearing her hair out, she had been trying and failing to put me to sleep for nearly an hour. She was about to give up when a raven haired girl dressed in a black shirt and matching wavy skirt holding a small boy with similar hair walked up to her "need any help? " she stared at my mum with slightly concerned eyes the small boy in her arms rolled his head over in the direction of my mum and revealed that the boy was sleeping. My mum saw how peaceful the boy looked and stared at me crying and thrashing out in her arms "would you mind I've been trying for nearly an hour, he's impossible I've tried everything." "Not at all, after all I did offer." She told her holding her arms out to trade babies "I know a little trick that makes them just drop off" the strange lady smiled snapping her fingers before she took me in her surprisingly soft arms. My mum was holding the raven haired boy in her arms and he snuggled in closer. I stared at this insane woman as she started to hum a surprisingly relaxing tune I tried to fight it but the tune made my eyes feel like they had lead weights on them and before I knew it I was in a world of bunnies and rainbows.
End flash back
"It's insane how we meet, it really is, we were 3 months old my mum was in the park and she couldn't get me to sleep and Shuns mum came over to her and put me to sleep like that." I laughed, I looked at Drago and the way he stared at me without moving told me that he thought I was crazy but he didn't know he wasn't there. "Look I don't expect you to understand after all you weren't their but trust me it was really funny." "How do you remember how you two meet you were 3 months old" Drago inquired "I don't know, why don't you just accept the answer I give you?" Drago turned around and waddled away from me. Great now I had another person mad at me this day just gets better and better.
I know this isn't a lot like Dan but I wanted to make it seem like he really missed Shun. And I made Marucho a gossip because I think it would work quit well for the story. Please review.
