(A/N: Moshi moshi, minna-san! I just finished chapter 3 like 10 minutes ago, it was fun to write! Kerii looks like some crazy and hyper girl that could take calming pills and they wouldn't have any result.

Anyway, as you already know, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! but Kerii and the new OC introduced here are mine. Enjoy!)

Shōnen-Ai High School

Chapter 3

"Kerii! KERII, SLOW DOWN! ONEGAI!"

"Hahaha! Of course not! We're almost there!"

"I don't want to DIE!"

"You won't! Just don't let go and we'll get there in less than a second!"

"You better keep your word, Kerii-chan, because if not...!"

"Gomen ne, Yugi-kun, but you're in no position to threaten me!"

"SLOW DOWN!"

Not even a minute passed since Yugi met Kerii and they were both at more than halfway towards the offices. This girl was crazy! The boy was praying to Ra he got to his destiny alive and without any part of his body missing, because with Kerii at the front of the vehicle, it didn't seem impossible. Finally, and without Yugi noticing, the motorcycle stopped in front of a gigantic building that looked like a hospital instead of some offices.

"See? Wasn't so rough after all, ne? I told you we'd get here in no time!" said Kerii triumphantly. "You only needed to trust me!"

"Well, I apologize for not trusting you before but you really are a maniac when driving!" replied Yugi as he got off the vehicle, giving the helmet back to its owner. The girl smiled.

"I'll take that as a compliment, arigatou!" she said also getting off. The boy eyed her with a weird look on his face. "Nani?"

"Do you plan to stay here?" he asked.

"Ano, if you want me to leave..."

"No, no, it's not that!" he said quickly. Kerii grinned and leaned against her motorcycle with her arms crossed on her chest.

"I'll wait for you here so you can tell me how it goes," she told him. He eyed her weirdly again, which made her laugh slightly. "The only reason for someone to come to precisely these offices is to enter the Shōnen-Ai High School, and I thought that this case would be no different since you seem to be carrying something on that backpack of yours." Yugi frowned slightly confused and turned his head back. In fact, Kerii was right about the backpack and Yugi forgot he brought it with him in the first place.

"Yush, then," he began, "wish me luck, Kerii-chan."

"Good luck, Yugi-kun!" she said with her two thumbs up. The boy smiled at her and made his way into the building.

Yugi tapped his fingers on his knee impatiently. The receptionist told him to wait a little bit in the instant he said he had an appointment with the director of the Shōnen-Ai High School. The boy took out the paper sheets from his backpack and stared at them with sad eyes.

'What if they don't like my story?' he thought nervously. 'What if I don't have what it takes after all?'

"Mutou Yugi?" asked the receptionist looking at the seats in front of her desk.

"Hai, that's me!" answered called teenager standing up from his place.

"You can come in now," she said going back to her work. Yugi swallowed hardly and nodded, walking towards the door. He lifted his hand to knock—

"Come in." —but he was already invited in. He placed his hand on the knob and carefully turned it, opening the door.

"K- Kojiha-sama?" he asked, his voice hesitant.

"Take a seat, Mutou-san." Yugi nodded and entered the room, slowly closing the door. He turned to see Kojiha-sama but he only saw a chair turned at him. Not taking his eyes off it, the teenager sat down. "I was informed that you want to become a student in my school."

"H- Hai, Kojiha-sama," he answered, hesitantly again.

"I don't like formalities at all." The chair turned around to reveal a woman with long and curly red hair and dark brown eyes sitting on it. Yugi had to hold back a gasp. Was she the director of the Shōnen-Ai High School? She seemed pretty young for the job. "So I'd like it better if you just called me Sakiko."

"A- As you say, Sakiko-san," he said, trying to be polite. Sakiko smiled kindly.

"I understand that you're a writer, aren't you, Mutou-san?"

"Exactly." The woman's smile widened.

"May I see the work you've brought?" Sakiko held out her hand, waiting for Yugi to give her what she asked for. The boy nodded and took out both copies from his backpack, putting them on the desk in front of him.

"Choose the one you're more comfortable with," he said. The elder looked at him briefly before grabbing the original copy. Yugi frowned in confusion.

"I think that the original work is always better, though I must admit it was wise of you to bring another one," she explained, making Yugi blush slightly.

"A- Arigatou gozaimasu," he thanked. Sakiko turned her sight back to the paper sheets in her hand and started reading them.

"This is rather a pretty long story, ne?"

"H- Hai, Sakiko-san."

"Then, why don't you retreat for now?" she suggested. "I want to give you an answer today..."

"I don't understand..." began Yugi.

"Demo," Sakiko continued, "I don't want to have you here waiting until I finish." She handed him a piece of paper. "Could you write your phone number, onegai?"

"Sure," said the teenager as he took a nearby pen and wrote his phone number on the paper, handling it back to Sakiko when he was finished.

"Arigatou, Mutou-san, you can leave now." And Yugi did just as ordered.

-

"So how did it go?" The boy almost had a heart attack when Kerii's voice came into his ears. He completely forgot the female said she'd wait for him.

"I don't really know," he answered. "The director said she'd give me an answer later."

"And why didn't she give it to you while you were there?"

"Etto..." Yugi looked down. He didn't want to tell Kerii everything, but she seemed like a good person.

"Oh, you're a writer, eh?" she said all of a sudden. The boy looked at her, surprise showing in his face.

"How did you figure it out?"

"Seeing as you were carrying a backpack, I came up with two conclusions," started Kerii. "Either you're an artist or painter, or you're a writer." Yugi still didn't get it, and the girl saw it on his expression. "Then, when you said that she'd give you an answer later, I realized that what you gave her was a story she'd last reading."

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure!"

"Are you a stalker?!" She just smiled.

"I just have very good intuition!" Yugi eyed her again.

"I'll believe in your word... for now."

"Hey!"

"I was joking with you!" said Yugi with a small smile across his lips.

"Oi, Yugi-kun, that was mean of you!" replied Kerii, pouting childishly. But then she smiled again. "Anyway, want me to ride you home?"

"Iie, arigatou!" The girl got on her motorcycle. "I'd actually like to walk this time."

"Is it because I drive too fast? I just did it to get you on time!"

"It's not that, Kerii-chan!" interrupted Yugi. "I really wanna walk back home. Arigatou gozaimasu, anyway!"

"Yush, I'll believe you... for now!" The boy raised an eyebrow, still smiling. "Just kidding around!" The motorcycle's engine started roaring. "Then, we'll meet again soon, Yugi-kun!" yelled Kerii waving goodbye before driving into the streets.

"I hope so!" waved back Yugi. He turned around and walked back home.

-

The phone rang on the Mutou house.

"I'll get it, jii-chan!" shouted the boy from upstairs as he ran to answer the phone. "Moshi moshi?"

"Mutou Yugi? Kojiha Sakiko talking." Yugi swallowed. "I have an answer for you."

(A/N: Dun dun dun! What will Yugi's answer be? Will he be able to get into the Shōnen-Ai High School? O I think you guys already know the answer, but I wanted to leave this chapter there!

If you wanna know what happens next, review! Onegai and arigatou, minna-san!! :D)
