Well here's chapter three. My head was rushing with ideas last night.

Chapter Three:

I woke up to the sound of Kaiba's alarm clock. Crap…today's Monday. I groan. I sit up in my bed and look around. It was still dark outside when I checked out the window near Kaiba's bed. When I looked at his alarm clock, it read 5:30am. Ugh!

"Good. I don't have to throw you out of bed this time." I saw a smirk on the wide awake Kaiba.

"How can you not bed tired?" I asked half asleep. All I got in response was a small chuckle.

For the next half hour we took our showers, got dressed- I finished putting my things away- and we headed for the dining room for breakfast.

There were more people here today than yesterday, and they were all chatting away. "How can everyone be so lively at this time in the morning?" I groaned.

"You'll get used to it." Kaiba answered as he pushed me over toward the food.

"Hey gu-woah Jou you okay?" Ryou stops from greeting us and asks me this.
All he got in response was a growl.

"I guess you're not a morning person?" Yuugi asks. Again; all they got was a growl and the sound of me slamming my tray on the table.

"Did you finish that project-" The sounds of my new friends' voices trailed off as I kept my attention on my food. The rest of breakfast was like this.

Thank the gods that I didn't have to stand in front of class and tell everyone about myself. The teacher just gave me the journals and other utensils that I'd need and I took a seat in the back. I didn't get to sit next to Kaiba; somebody was already occupying those seats. He was sitting a few desks ahead of me, but not close enough that I could talk to him without the teacher noticing.

Through class I found my eyes drifting back to Kaiba. It seemed he was pretty "popular" with some guys.

"Alright, so we're gonna start an experiment. We'll be growing flowers for a few weeks, and then looking at everything under a microscope. I'll have a paper full of questions that each partner will have to answer. Now go find your partners." I didn't even get up when I heard this. I just set my head down on my desk, and whoever wanted to pair up with me would approach me.

"Hey there." I looked up and practically screamed when I saw that Marik guy. I didn't know if I wanted laugh because he approached me or cry.

"Get away, Marik. He's my partner." We both looked to find a pissed Kaiba.

"No no no. You had your chance. You're just glad that I got here first. And besides he's your roommate and has every class with you, it's only fair that I-"

"What? You stalking us or something? How the hell did you find this out?" I swear I could see steam coming out of his ears.

"News travels." Was Marik's only reply as he sat down to the empty desk next to me.

"Sorry Jou." I could hear the sympathy in Kaiba's voice as he began to walk away. "Be careful."

"Sooo…you single?"

I rolled my eyes. This guy was absolutely a player! "What makes you think I'm gay?" I made sure there was venom in my words.

"Oh, I know. I can see by the way you stare at smart ass over there." My eyes widened. "My point exactly."

For the rest of class we started burying our seeds in a cup full of dirt, and answered the questions we could at the time. I didn't know Marik was smart. He seemed like a stupid idiot, but he sure did know his stuff. I just…couldn't wait for this to be over.

The rest of the day was just boring old regular school. I had a class with Ryou and Otogi, and another class with Yuugi. And of course all my classes with Kaiba. Lunch was the same as Sunday except that there were more people.

"Hey cutie." I did not want to hear those words coming from that guys mouth!

"Leave him alone Marik!" Bakura barked. "Go find your boy toy!"

Marik just rolled his eyes and walked away.

"I can not stand him!" Ryou whined. Everyone nodded in agreement.

"At the rate he's going, he's gonna get Jou in trouble with Malik." This came from Otogi.

"We need to keep Marik away from him at all costs." Yuugi added.

"That's…not…gonna be…possible." Everyone turned to look at Kaiba in surprised expressions on there faces except for me. I knew what he was talking about. "Today in Biology we had to pick partners…and Marik got to him first…he wouldn't…budge. I had no choice."

"Then just…keep an eye on them." Kaiba nodded.


The rest of the week went fast. I was left alone on Friday as Kaiba went out on his date with Rex. Jealousy made its way through my body. Yuugi, Yami, Otogi, Honda, Ryou, and Bakura asked if I wanted to hang out with them, but I didn't want to interrupt their usual Friday nights.

But Saturday was different. Surprising too actually.

"There you are." I lifted my head off my pillows to find Kaiba in a very tight black shirt and the same goes for his black jeans. He had a container of…strawberries? The happy teen leapt on to my bed. "Here." He handed me a strawberry which I took as he took a small bite of his own.

A few moments have passed and Kaiba laid his head on my chest as his legs dangled from the side of my bed. "Is this okay?" He looked into my eyes. I bet he could see the red rushing to my cheeks. I couldn't find my words, but I just nodded.

He gave me another strawberry that he took out of the container, but this time he was going for my mouth. I opened just enough so the bottom of the strawberry would fit. He smiled at me, and it looked like his eyes were sparkling.

A few moments have past, and we stayed silent. Kaiba was nibbling on the tip of his strawberry when he asked, "Do you want another one."

"Sure." I smiled.

"Then come here." He whispered. I narrowed my eyebrows in confusion. What did he mean by that? He chuckled before placing the top of the delicious fruit in his mouth. Then, he placed a hand on the back of my neck, and I found my head moving forward; slowly. He met me half way and I took a bite of the fruit. I kept taking bites until there was no more, and Kaiba threw the green into the container with the others.

"Uhm…" I didn't know what to say. That was…awkward though. Not that I didn't like it or anything. Again, he just smiled.

"I'm gonna try something. Promise not to be mad?" I couldn't find my voice and just nodded. He sat up until he was straddling me. That's when I noticed his head moving closer. And before I knew it our lips were touching. A few seconds past, and the kiss grew more passionately. Of course, he tasted like strawberries. Wait… Don't you have a boyfriend? That's what was running through my head, but I couldn't find myself to break the kiss and ask.

Our kiss was interrupted by a knocking on the door.

"Hey guys!" Yuugi shouted, and everyone pilled into the room.

Great…

When I looked over to Kaiba, he was looking straight at me; annoyed as ever. But I knew he wouldn't ask them to leave. They hung out every Saturday and Sunday night. So who was I to destroy their friendship routine?

If you guys could have seen into my head last night, you would agree that the images I had in my head would have put this chapter to shame. But I tried my hardest to describe this, and I hope you liked it.
