Hi everyone! I'm back for the next chapter and it's all about Kaiba! He's actually fairly evil in this one. And a little surprise closer to the ending.
Kaiba: I hate you so much.
Jounouchi:Aw, no you don't. Just think about all the fans out there that love us.
Please don't fight you two. I have to begin the next chapter! Anyways, I do NOT own YuGiOh or anything else mentioned in this fanfic. If I did, I would be screaming me head off like an insane fangirl and put more puppyshipping in the original anime DM series. YuGiOh belongs to Kazuki Takahashi-sensei. Not me and I am in no way making money off of this. Anyways, on with the fic!
Mokuba was finally able to get his older brother to calm down. It had taken a while, but he got it done. Mokuba sighed, "Well, have you come up with a backup story to tell everyone?"
Kaiba nodded, "Yeah, I told the Yuugi-tachi that I had to fly to America on a business trip. Then for my backup story for staying here, I said I was Anzu's cousin coming to visit after my father died and that I'd be attending Domino High until I went to live with another relative or- no, I am NOT staying like this until I graduate."
"Well, we have to figure out a way to change you back. Who else knows that you're a girl now?"
"Only Yuugi and friendship girl," Kaiba stood up, "But for now, you and I are going shopping."
Mokuba raised an eyebrow, "Why would we go shopping?"
"Because I'm now 5'4 and have a completely new body. None of my clothes will fit me so I have to go out and buy new ones," Mokuba stood up and the two brothers made their way to their limo, "I'll need to buy a few uniforms, too. Ugh, I hate these damn mini-skirts. I'm going to kill the man who decided every female in school had to wear tiny mini-skirts as a uniform."
At the mall-
Kaiba and Mokuba began looking at all of the stores to try and find a place where they could buy clothes for Kaiba. Kaiba kept trying to go into the shops for older women when Mokuba wasn't looking and when Mokuba ran into one trying to find his older brother he saw her trying on a business suit for women. Mokuba frowned. He ran over to her, tugging at her arm, "Don't try that on! This isn't the right store for you! Go change so we can go to another store!"
Mokuba whined at his older brother until a woman who worked there came over and said, "Ma'am, if you cannot keep your son under control, I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to leave."
'Oh, shit,' Mokuba thought, 'she just had to go and say that, didn't she?'
Kaiba put a smile on her face, the vein in her forehead bulging, "Well, that's exactly he wants. And, for your information, I'm only 17. I could never have a child as old as my little brother here now could I?"
The woman shuddered in fright, but decided to stand her ground, (bad move) "Then what on Earth are you doing in a store like this? Surely you don't make enough money to shop in such a store as this, being that you are still in high school; at least I hope you are."
Kaiba felt the challenge in this stuck up woman's voice and she never backed down from one, "I am in here to shop. And I make more money in an hour than you do in an entire year."
"Well, I want you out of here! And I'll make it so that you lose your job if you don't. I don't care where you work, I can make it so you lose it," the woman crossed her arms and smirked in victory.
But Kaiba just smirked right back at her and said, "I highly doubt that. Only I have the power to do that, since I've known your boss for many years and could easily have you fired with a flick of my finger."
The woman's smirk turned into a frown, "How could you know who my boss is? I am the manager of this store. The only person above me is the woman at the top who owns the entire world known company. Not even the press knows her name."
Kaiba gave her the classic icy cold Kaiba glare, said to scare anyone to the point where they could end up in a coma, "Like I said, I've known her for many years and she cares for me as if I was her little sibling. I'm sure Mrs. Kaede Iva would just love to hear about this little conversation and have it so you never work in this country again."
The woman looked like she was about to have a heart attack! Mokuba kept looking back to his older brother then to the woman, "Uh, maybe we should just leave now. Come on, Nii-sama, go change so we can leave."
Kaiba broke off her glare with the woman and looked down to her raven-haired brother, "Alright, I'll be back in a few minutes."
Kaiba left to change while Mokuba comforted the woman back to a normal state and apologized for his older brother's actions. The woman spoke, "You called her your big brother. Why did you do that?"
Mokuba panicked, "Uh, well I'm just used to calling her Nee-sama that I guess I tripped over my own tongue and called her Nii-sama instead."
The woman nodded her head and left just before Kaiba came back in her borrowed clothes, "That woman, ugh, she has no idea how bad it is to make enemies with me."
Mokuba sighed, "Let's just go so that you don't try and give someone else a heart attack."
After about four hours of shopping Kaiba and Mokuba finally got back home with a month's worth of clothes for Kaiba that ranged from a regular pair of pants and a T-shirt to a ball-like gown for dances and business parties. Kaiba went by herself to get underwear while Mokuba hung out at the arcade. Kaiba was able to make fake records for herself and enrolled into Domino so that she could go to school tomorrow without the school district asking her questions.
After she finished enrolling she had Mokuba call the school saying that Kaiba had gone to America for a business trip and that he would e-mail the homework to all of his teachers. After that Mokuba went to bed so he could get in time for school tomorrow and Kaiba went to her office so she could catch up on work she missed doing over the weekend.
The next morning Kaiba put on her new uniform with the dreaded skirt after taking a quick shower and doing other bathroom necessities; she had even bought new deodorant, shampoo, conditioner and a new toothbrush for herself, putting her stuff for when she was a guy in a box to use when she turned back into a guy.
Once she got downstairs she grabbed a cup of coffee and made herself some French toast. She kissed Mokuba on the forehead and left so the driver could take her to school, though she planned to only take the car until she was within two blocks from the school so she could walk the rest of the way. She got to the classroom just before the bell rang and the teacher introduced her to the class, "Everyone, this is Kairi Seta. She's transferred here to Domino from America to live with her cousin, Anzu. I want you all to make her feel welcome here. Do you all have that?"
The class nodded. "Good. Kairi, please take a seat next to the window in the far back," Kaiba went to the desk the teacher had pointed out to her, which had been her seat back when she was Kaiba, "In other news, Kaiba-san won't be coming to school for a while since he's going to be in America."
Classes went on for what seemed like forever. Finally it was time for lunch, meaning only one more class was left in the day. When Kaiba went to sit down at her usual table and eat her usual lunch while reading a random book she had brought with her she heard people murmuring around her.
"Hey, do you see her," One guy said to her right behind her, "She's that new foreigner from America. And Kaiba left for America. It's kind of weird. It's like Kairi and Kaiba switched places."
"Yeah, but she's totally hot," Another said, "I don't know how, but I'm going to try and find a way to get her to sleep with me."
The first one laughed, "Like she'd ever sleep with a loser like you. She's probably into older guys."
Another joined the two, "I heard she was Mazaki Anzu's cousin. I just hope she doesn't preach about friendship like her cousin."
The second one spoke, "Aw, which means she's probably already met the Yuugi-tachi."
The first spoke again, "Why don't you go over there and talk to her, maybe flirt a bit. I'm sure you can get her to be your girlfriend in no time!"
The third one spoke, "Yeah, dude! You can make any girl fall for you if you've got the right stuff lined up for you."
The vein in Kaiba's head bulged as the boy got up and walked towards her. She looked up at the boy when he kneeled on the seat next to her. Kaiba kept her face emotionless towards the boy. He had black hair that spiked up and brown eyes, making him look like any average guy. He was about Honda's height, which meant he was about six feet tall, and had a mischievous smile on his face.
"Hey," The boy began, "My name's Ken. I heard you were new around here. Your name is Kairi, right? From America?"
Kaiba nodded to him, "So, what do you want?"
"Well, I just wanted to get to know you," Ken said, "You're a sweet sounding girl and some real eye candy."
Kairi smirked when she caught Ken's friends cheering him on from their table in the cafeteria, "Is that so? Well, it sounds to me that you're hitting on me."
Ken panicked, "No way! I mean, you are a very appealing girl, but I don't try to run to second base when I don't even know if I can reach first."
Kaiba looked away from the boy, "Tell me, do you play baseball?"
Ken shook his head, "No, I'm actually not very good at it."
Kaiba looked back at the boy, "Then why bother trying to get up to bat when you can't even face the pitcher."
Ken was about to say something, but stopped when Kaiba grabbed her water and dumped it onto the boy's head. The boy stood there, flabbergasted, as Kaiba grabbed her stuff and walked off, deciding she was going to go to Drama early so she could get a good seat. She decided she wasn't going to tell the Drama teacher who she really was since there was really no point to it now.
After lunch ended and Drama began their teacher, Mrs. Marufuji, said, "Alright class, I have an announcement for all of you. I want you each to randomly pick a CD out of this basket. Each CD has two songs on it, one for the heroine of the play to sing and dance to and the other for the hero. It doesn't matter who or what goes with the song, as long as the hero and heroine are the spotlight for the song. Do you understand?"
Each group nodded and got up to get their song, also getting a boom box to play the songs for them. As Yuugi sat back down with the rest of the group, they began the first song. As the lyrics to the song started, they all looked at each other. It was a song called Loves Fugue, or Koi no Fuga, which was sung by two women. They decided that Kaiba and Anzu would sing and dance to that, but Kaiba kept complaining about how she sucked at singing.
"You don't have to be good at singing to be able to sing Loves Fugue," Anzu said, "I'm more of a dancer than a singer, but I can easily sing to Loves Fugue."
Kaiba sighed, "Whatever, let's just get this thing over with. What's the other song?"
They played the second song and realized it was Recycle Bin. Otogi raised an eyebrow, "Is it just me or does Mrs. Marufuji seem a bit obsessed with the Vocaloids?"
"Do you think she's an Otaku," Honda asked.
"Most girls are, you know," Ryou smiled for no reason, "Are you two Otakus, Kairi, Anzu?"
"I am, but Kairi isn't," Anzu said.
"I wouldn't be an Otaku even if it meant I'd die if I wasn't," Kaiba answered.
"You don't have to be so negative about it, Kai-chan," Jou said.
"I'm not being negative," Kaiba glared at the blonde, "Hey! Who the hell said it was okay for you to call me Kai-chan?"
"I did. What does it matter if I give you a nickname," Jou began glaring right back at her, "Besides, you've nicknamed me Bonkotsu. So I get to give you a nickname you don't like."
Kaiba was just about to verbally abuse the blond just like she did to that lady at the mall yesterday and Ken just before, but was stopped when Bakura tripped her, causing her to yelp and fall forward. She was ready to hit the floor pretty hard, but it never came. When she opened her eyes she saw Jounouchi's amber eyes staring right back at her. The two blushed, "Are you okay, Kairi?"
Kaiba tried not to look too much like an apple, "Yeah… What? No Kai-chan? Or are you not comfortable calling me that in this position?"
Jou sat up, keeping the brunette on his lap, "No, I think you look so cute when you blush on my lap like this. Especially that little yelp you made before you fell on me."
Kaiba tried her best to stop blushing- being a girl in a mini-skirt on top of a guy's lap felt so awkward since she would've blushed even when she was a guy if it happened- and punched the blond in the face, getting up and brushing herself off.
The female CEO looked away from the blond idiot, "You're such an idiot, Bonkotsu! Instead of drooling over me, why don't you at least try and put those mutt-like brain cells to good use and try to learn something!" She turned to their teacher, "Mrs. Marufuji, may I go to the nurse's office? I have a serious migraine."
"Of course you can, Kairi," Their teacher handed her a pass, "You take as long as you need. This is the last class of the day so if you're not feeling well take as much time as you need until you feel better, sweetie."
Kaiba nodded her thanks to the teacher and turned to leave, but Jou wouldn't let her get off so easily, "Mrs. Marufuji, since Kairi-chan is not only new to the school, but dizzy from a migraine, can I take her there?"
Kaiba glared at the blonde, but he seemed unfazed by it and smirked at her, "I think that's a splendid idea, Jounouchi-kun. I'm sure Kairi-chan is very thankful that you would show her the way."
Kaiba began her way out of the classroom and into the hall, but was swept off her feet and carried all the way to the nurse's office by Jounouchi, bridal style. Jou opened the door with his foot somehow and closed it behind him in the same manner before putting Kaiba on the closest bed. Kaiba rubbed her head, "What the hell is your problem?"
"I don't have a problem! And if I did, it'd be because of you," Jou spat at the CEO, "And you're out of luck. Since the nurse isn't here I'll stay with you."
"Is that supposed to be some kind of lame excuse so that you can try and make a move," Kaiba asked.
Jou stared at her, "Well, yeah, kind of."
He gave her his classic goofy grin and the blonde could have sworn he saw a tiny smile graze her lips, even if for a split second. Jou sat next to Kaiba on the bed, "You know we might as well talk about things until we have to leave since we still have 45 minutes of school left."
Kaiba made a humph sound, "I don't see why people find small talk so amusing."
Jou chuckled, putting his arm around Kaiba's waist, "Well, most people don't randomly come to Japan from America to see their family in the middle of January. What does your dad do for a living, anyway?"
"I don't have a dad," Kaiba grabbed Jou's arm, twisting his wrist, causing Jou to put it back to his side and away from her.
"Oh, sorry about that; then what does your mom do?"
"She died giving birth to my little brother."
"Oh, I'm sorry about that, too. I didn't mean to stir up painful memories," Jou put his arms around the blue-eyed girl and hugged her, "What about your little brother."
"He's still alive, but our relationship isn't the same as it used to be," Kaiba said, for some reason she liked the hug, 'Yeah, our relationship sure has changed. I'm not his older brother anymore. I'm his big sister now.'
Her thought process stopped and she began pushing Jounouchi away, "Hey! Stop hugging me! Who said you could hug me?"
Jou hugged her tighter, "I did. Besides, I just want to hug you. You've been through a lot and I want to help you smile again so that you and your little brother's relationship can go back to normal."
She stopped thrashing around, her arms between their torsos. She looked up at him, "Why would you do that? You've only known me for 2 days and you want to help me with my problem? Huh, I just don't understand you."
Jou gave her an understanding smile, "You don't have to understand me. I don't understand your logic either. And I want to help you because that's what friends do."
"But its eating me up that I don't know what you're thinking. I can usually read people like books all the time, but with you… I can't. Besides, we're not friends. We just met. We can't be friends."
Jou raised an eyebrow, "How are you related to Anzu? She can't stop talking about how important friendship is and she's so annoying. The only things you two have in common are the color of your hair and eyes."
"So you think we look alike."
"No way; you're a lot prettier than Anzu. You're cuter, don't preach about friendship all the time, have pale skin, and have a personality that drives me crazy. Though I don't know if it drives me crazy in a good way or not," Jou smiled at Kaiba.
Kaiba blushed. She didn't know why Jounouchi's compliments made her do that, but they did. She felt the arms around her loosen, one going down to her waist and the other one to accompany her arms between them, cupping her face in his hand. The blonde got closer and closer until the space between their lips was gone. The blond closed his eyes, deepening the kiss by putting the hand that had cupped her face behind her head.
Kaiba's eyes widened. She didn't know what to do! She'd never kissed anyone before! Okay, so she's kissed Mokuba and a few other people, but that was on the cheek or the forehead! It wasn't a kiss on the lips! It had never been a kiss on the lips! She squeezed her eyes shut, just waiting for the kiss to end. She stayed completely still until she felt it. Her eyes widened once again. That was a tongue she just felt graze across her lips and it wasn't hers.
She began pounding a fist on Jounouchi's chest as if to say 'STOP'. He got the idea and finally let go of his grasp on the brunette. They both sat there, gasping for air, for a good five minutes until Jou broke the silence, "I'm sorry about that. I just couldn't resist. Your lips were just right there and the way we were talking and the position we were in; it just felt right."
Kaiba brought one hand up to touch her lips. What was that? What had she felt when Jou had kissed her? She wasn't very familiar with this emotion so she didn't know what it was. Could it have been lust? No way; that was impossible! Could it have been happiness? No! That was impossible, too. What was it? She was broken out of her thoughts when Jou grabbed her arm, causing her to flinch.
She looked into his honey colored eyes, feeling something in the pit of her stomach, "Are you okay, Seta-chan? I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable. It's just that the moment felt so right and so-."
Jou was cut off. His head was forcefully turned to the side after a silence shattering slap hit his cheek. The shock clearly showed in his eyes. He turned to look at Kaiba, a painful looking red mark in the shape of a hand now appearing on his cheek. Kaiba's blue eyes were filled with rage, holding back tears that were dangerously close to falling, "You idiot! Why did you do that? Is this how you treat every girl you meet? How could just kiss someone like that? And it was my first kiss!"
Kaiba put a hand over her mouth, shocked at what she had just said. She hadn't meant for that last piece of information to leak out of her mouth! She looked at Jounouchi, who still looked shocked, "You've never kissed anyone? And you're going to be in your last year of high school?"
Kaiba sighed, "No, I've kissed and been kissed before, but that was the first time it was on my lips. And I've just never had time to mess around like some giddy little school girl. I have too much to handle in my life and adding more people to it will just bring more troubles to my life."
Jou sighed, "You really need to get out and act like a normal teenager then. How about you join me and the gang tomorrow to go to the public pool? It'll be a lot of fun. I promise. Just come with us."
Kaiba thought it over, the tears in her eyes now disappeared, "Alright, but I'm not going to let you or your friends stare at me. If I ever catch anyone in your group of dorks staring at me I'll leave and you can't complain about it. Do you understand?"
"Yes, ma'am," Jou said in a mocking tone, grinning ear to ear.
Kaiba rolled her eyes and lay down on the bed. She really didn't know why she agreed to it. She just did. The vein in her forehead bulged as she saw Jou lay on top of her, "Why are you laying on me?"
"No reason," Jou said, "I just wanted to."
Kaiba blushed, turning her head to the side. Her eyes widened, making Jou raise an eyebrow, "What is it?"
He turned his head in the same direction, his eyes widened as well. There was someone else in the room with them. The nurse had come back from wherever she had gone! Oh no, what if she got the wrong idea? The woman cleared her throat, "What are the two of you doing here? Classes are still in session. If you have enough time to fool around in my office then I'm sure you wouldn't mind going back to class unless you want the principle to hear about this incident."
Jou climbed off of the bed, "No, it's not like that! You see Kairi wasn't feeling well and since she was new here I brought her here so she wouldn't get lost and end up fainting in the hallways."
The woman crossed her arms, "Well, I'll let it slide this time since you're new to the school and since you're not feeling well. But you need to go back to class, Jounouchi-kun. I'll take care of the new student. What's your name, miss?"
"My name is Kairi Seta," Kaiba said, holding herself up with her forearms, "I'm from America."
"Oh, my," the woman said, "You speak perfect Japanese. You don't butcher it at all like some people do. Well, there are 20 minutes left of school so you can just stay here. I'll wake you up if you end up falling asleep. Just try and get some rest until then. Jounouchi-kun, could you come back to get Ms. Kairi when classes are over?"
"Uh, sure," Jou said, "I'll be back later. Bye, Kairi."
"Bye, Bonkotsu," This time it was Jounouchi's vein's turn to bulge.
Once he stepped out of the office he thought to himself, 'Why'd she call Kairi miss?'
Kaiba lay back down on the bed, replaying the scene that had just played between her and Jounouchi then realized, 'He'd called me Seta. And I'd let him. Oh god, what is happening to me? Was it because of the sudden change in my hormones? That had to be it! There was no way that I could have missed the detail, even if it was just after my first kiss. Ugh, why did it have to be with that idiot?' She closed her eyes and let herself drift off to sleep.
Hey, guys. Thanks so much for reading this far. I can't believe it. Only two chapters and I've already written over 10,000 words. (It's over 9,000!) Okay, anyone that can guess who I named their Drama teacher after gets virtual points. I hope you all keep reading and reviewing! By the way, to those who reviewed, I love you all sooooooo much. It really means alot.
Anyways, I'm gonna stop rambling and say goodbye for now. Bye-bee! (Bel-bel's way of saying goodbye, from KHR)
