"Do you play DM, Fiona?" Tristan asked
"No. Well, I mean, I tried, but I just can't get a handle on the rules." She shrugged
"We could try to help you learn, if you wanted." Yugi offered
"Yeah, that'd be really cool."
"Do you have a deck?" Joey asked
"I have one but it's unfinished. I think I have about 30 cards. What's a full deck? 40, right?"
"Yeah, 40." Joey conformed
So cose, yet so far." She laughed
Later...
After school everyone was crowded in the doorway changing shoes and trying to judge the best way to go outside and not drown.
Luckily for Tea, Fiona had brought a rather large umbrella to school with her. The new friends were going shopping together. Tea was so excited to have a girl her own age in the group now.
She felt almost guilty for being as happy as she was to spend time with Fiona just the two of them. Mai and Serenity were friends, but she only saw them a few times a year, if that. The same was true with Ishizu. And Rebecca was, well, Rebecca. And none of them really had anything in common with Tea as it was. Having someone here, in Domino and seeing them everyday? Now that was a change she could live with for the rest of have life.
They had talked a lot during their classes together and found so much in common that they couldn't wait for school to end. However, Tea had promised to bring Fiona by the game shop when they were done at the mall.
"So what do you for fun around here?" Fiona asked
"I just hang out with the boys really. But, well, I love my friends." Tea shrugged, "But sometimes I need time off."
"Tea time!" Fiona quipped
Tea laughed
"Yeah! exactly."
"I understand, it's good in the beginning but then you need another girl to chill with, someone to vent to."
"Yes! Finally someone who gets it."
Therwe was a pause and Fiona spoke up.
"So, that Seth guy?"
"Seto." Tea reminded
"Right, him. So him like, runs that whole big gaming corporation and still goes to High School?"
"Yup."
Fi cracked up and nearly bent over from laughter.
"Why?"
