Please don't hurt me! I know, I know, I was gone, again. What can I say? I get easily distracted and forget about things! Anyways, I was also a little discouraged because nobody really commented on chapter 6, and I was like 'What's the point?' But now I'm back! So, Enjoy! And please review! Think of the children!

Chapter 7: Hung over

Akiza stared at her blond roommate in disbelief. Psychic? She was psychic? She didn't even believe in psychics!

"I know it's a little hard to believe-" Sherry started.

"You think?" Akiza cut her off, becoming even more overwhelmed than she was at the dance.

"It's most likely because you have a higher ESP level than most people. Our generation's ESP average is much higher then it was 20 years ago. Which is why psychic duellists keep popping up everywhere. You're probably just going to have little dreams that feel almost real once in a while. You'll get used to it." Sherry explained and comforted.

Akiza ran her fingers through her now-shortened hair roughly, still reeling from everything that had happened tonight. As much as she didn't want to believe Sherry, the evidence backing up her explanation was hard to argue with, and she had a gut feeling telling her to believe the french girl.

"This happens to you too?" Akiza asked, not knowing how it helped matters.

Sherry nodded at the red-head. "How else would I have known this would happen to you?" she provided.

Whoa. This conversation was starting to get a little creepy. Akiza was sure the expression on her face gave away what she was thinking, because a trace of panic started to lace Sherry's features as she left the room in a hurry.

Akiza lied back down on her bed and closed her eyes in an attempt to try and sleep, so she might forget everything that happened and give herself a break. Yeah, right. Her thoughts were like wolves howling at the moon and kept her awake for hours. She decided maybe processing everything might help calm her nerves.

First there was this psychic thing. She supposed it could be true, and if it is, she has Sherry to help her. Although, her dream did freak her out, but that's where Sherry would come in and help her until she 'got used to it' as Sherry put it.

Next was her actual dream a.k.a. what happened at the dance. Crow was watching her, and then he hid away and started… crying? That was completely unlike him, well, as far as she knew, she'd only been here for a couple weeks. She never thought of Crow as someone to cry though. Why was he crying, anyways? Was he upset about his friends going to the dance without him? Maybe. That would definitely make her want to cry. He must have felt completely alone and forgotten. A wave of guilt crept over her as she tried to move on to the other parts of her dream.

There was no doubt the weirdest thing was Leo and Luna. Siblings- no, not just siblings- twins. Making out, tears streaming down their faces. What the hell was going on there? Incest. That was what. She knew something was wrong with Leo caring so much about his sister. There's overprotective, and then there's just plain wrong. Leo was just plain wrong. Now that Akiza thought about it, everytime Leo looked at his sister, and Akiza saw them, he had a look of adoration in his eyes that went beyond sibling love. But when Luna looked back she saw-

Pain.

Did Luna pity Leo? Did she feel bad for not loving him back? Did she feel bad for loving him back? If Akiza knew anything about Luna, she knew Luna didn't like to break rules, because no one who was perfect broke the rules. This wasn't breaking a rule though, this was demolishing it with a nuclear bomb.

Then there was the Carly and Jack thing. That wasn't too unexpected. She knew Mina had feelings for Jack. It was completely obvious. And Akiza did have a feeling that that Kiyomi guy had a thing for Carly. Poor guy, the one girl he can't have is the one he wants.

And, of course, Yusei. Akiza didn't know what to make of him. This good-looking, smart, protecting, nice guy decided to waltz into her life as a welcoming friend, then a brother figure, a boyfriend, a lover, now a guardian? She really liked Yusei, and she wanted to keep dating him, but something tickled the back of her head everytime she thought about him, like she was forgetting something crucial about him.

Oh well. Akiza could feel her eyelids drooping even though they were already shut. She yawned slightly, and once her mouth was closed, she was out.

The next morning came a little too quickly for Akiza. At least it was the weekend. She got up off her bed and grabbed her hairbrush before standing in front of a mirror that was hung on the back of her door. She started to take a brush stroke, expecting to brush long, raspberry hair but forgot she had short hair now and stumbled from brushing too hard.

She changed out of last night's outfit, not caring that she had slept in it and changed into some bright red denim shorts and a light pink flowing blouse that was half see-through but had an attached camisole underneath. She scrubbed her face, attempting to remove last night's make up then proceeded to head to the kitchen for breakfast.

Sherry was sitting on a stool next to the island counter in their dorm kitchen, up early for once. Akiza froze for a split-second when she first saw her, but proceeded to the fridge to get some orange juice anyway.

"Morning." Akiza called, head shoved inside the fridge.

Sherry softly chuckled before resting her rather large yellow coffee mug on the counter and lowered her eyes to the floor, just barely keeping them open. "Top shelf." She instructed.

"Oh yeah!" Akiza said more to herself than to Sherry. "OW!" Akiza screamed after a small rattle was heard from inside the fridge. Akiza emerged from the cold closet, one hand holding a small jug of orange juice, the other holding the back of her head.

Sherry laughed at her. "You do that every morning." She reminded, shaking her head as she did so.

Akiza gave her a curt glare before opening a cupboard to search for a glass. "I'll get used to it eventually." Akiza assured her roommate, not realizing that that was what Sherry told her last night about-

Akiza froze as it all came flooding back to her. The dream, the dance, the conversation with Sherry. It all became fresh in her mind again as if it hade just happened.

Sherry had frozen too, but forced herself over to Akiza. "Are you okay?" she asked, worry dancing a duet with her words.

Akiza nodded and smiled at the blond before grabbing a glass and shutting the cupboard. "Yeah," the red-head assured, "I just got to get used to it.

Luna was trembling as she looked at herself in the mirror of her dorm bathroom. Her hair was a mess, her make-up had dried on her cheeks and under her eyes. Parts of her outfit from the evening prior were missing or stretched. There was a little bit of dried blood on her lip…

And her leg.

She shuddered at the thought of how that might have happened. It was quite obvious how, but she didn't want to think about it. Didn't even want to acknowledge the fact that the blood was even there, staining her soft, innocent skin. It was too much to bear.

She softly cursed herself for letting something like this happen. She knew better. What if she got sick? What if she had gotten pregnant? Was that even possible in this situation?

She tore her eyes away from the sorry sight of her face and turned the faucet on. She watched the cold water run as she grabbed a cloth and dipped it in the stream of liquid. She scrubbed her inner thigh first and managed to get most of the blood off, well, most of the noticeable blood.

She threw the cloth out and got a fresh one before proceeding to wash her face. Her damaged, distraught face. The cool water shocked her at first, then woke her up a bit as she got the make-up and blood off.

She rinsed the cloth and returned to her room where last nights mistake slept soundly underneath her blankets, curled up in a ball so you couldn't see anything but a couple toes stick out from under the covers.

She shook her head as she gathered up the missing pieces to her outfit and threw them in her little wicker laundry basket. She opened her closet, which squeaked loudly, causing her guest to stir and groan. She proceeded to pick out some fresh clothes and turned around to head to the shower when she saw a mop of messy hair stick out from under her blankets. Although it wasn't the aqua-green tresses that she was expecting.

It was a mop of orange carrot sticks.

Misty didn't expect to wake where she did.

She was wedged between two guys. Kalin, her boyfriend, and Bruno, Steph's boyfriend.

She peered over at Bruno, who had a naked Stephanie lying on top of him, then at Kalin, who was on his stomach, his bare ass on display for the world, then under the sheet that was covering her.

She was naked too.

Had they had a foursome last night? She pondered the extremely likely possibility and mentally shrugged. She was on the pill, no need to worry. Besides, Kalin always had condoms on him anyways.

Misty wiggled her way out from under the sheet, and begin to climb over Kalin, but was stopped by his outreached arm.

"Where do you think you're going?" He said teasingly as he attempted to wiggle his eyebrows but ended up slightly raising them before letting his heavy eye-lids droop closed again. Misty sat on his stomach and shoved her tongue down her silver-haired boy toy's throat and made out with him for a little while before getting up and throwing a house robe on.

Misty started heading toward the bathroom for a shower when a knock was heard at the door. She answered the door to find a sad looking sea-green haired teen standing at what she now realized was her door.

"Luna?" Misty gasped, puzzled.

The girl looked terrible. There were remnants of smeared make-up on her face. Her hair had been sloppily thrown up in a ponytail. Her clothes didn't match and looked like they had been sitting on her floor for a while and tossed on. She was also acting strange. Her face was pale (more so than usual), her feet were forced together, she was hunched, and she was grabbing her arms as if her life depended on it.

She looked like she was about to fall apart.

"I'm sorry, okay?" Luna gave weakly, although the meaning behind the words said otherwise.

Misty frowned and looked on her ex-best friend with pity. She nodded her head. "Me too."

Luna's eyes brightened the slightest bit at Misty's words, but returned to their depressed state within seconds. "I need someone to talk to."

Misty's frown grew as she stepped into the hallway and closed the door. She sighed before continuing. "Why me?"

Luna's eyes started to moisten as she said her next words. "You're the only one who'll understand."

Misty's eyes widened as she took a step closer to Luna. "Leo?"

Luna nodded.

Misty took in a sharp breathe. "Wait right here."

Misty rushed back into her dorm and got dressed as quickly as she could, not caring that she would match Luna's horrid state. This was too important to delay.

Misty hurried out the door, grabbed Luna's hand and led her to her car in the parking lot of the school. There could be no interruptions of any kind.

This was serious.

Akiza and Sherry strolled along a little walkway on the campus' picnic field. To say the school was sleeping in was an understatement. The school was hung over.

Only a few other students were outside, most of them being nerds that didn't go to the dance and chose to study and go to bed at a reasonable hour. Wise choice.

The two girls considered themselves lucky they went to their dorms early last night. Otherwise they would have been hung over like the rest of the school.

It was a crisp morning. There was a light breeze that was cool enough to make Akiza shiver in her shorts and light shirt, but it would warm up. Hopefully.

There was a bit of a fog but it was nothing the sun couldn't shine through and warm up. Akiza took in a deep breathe of the sweet air as her and Sherry came up to the dorm building that held the boys.

Sherry lead the duo to Yusei and Jack's room, pulled out a key and unlocked the room. Akiza nudged Sherry before they went in.

"You have a key to their room?" Akiza asked astounded.

Sherry laughed. "We all have copies of each others keys. Except for Luna and Leo. I don't know why they don't want us to have keys to their places."

'I do.' Akiza thought, but just shrugged at Sherry, pretending to be just as clueless.

They entered the room to find a bunch of beer bottles strewn across the floor and a long, black mop of hair covering and tuft of spiky blond strands. Further scanning showed that the coffee table had been used as a bed by someone, most likely a crab-headed boyfriend of Akiza's.

The two girls looked at the room, then looked at each other and fell to the ground making raspberries in an attempt to contain their laughter.

Yusei walked out of the bathroom with nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist and walked over to where Akiza and Sherry were clutching their stomachs and giggling uncontrollably. Akiza noticed Yusei and sat up, letting a few last chuckles before finally calming down. She wiggled her eyebrows at him in a very suggestive way before leaning back on her hands and checking Yusei out in a very obvious way.

"Why hello there mister crabs-and-abs!" She wiggled her eyebrows twice in a row and licked her lips which caused Yusei to glaring and laugh inwardly at the same time.

Akiza stood up and came up to Yusei so she was only an inch away from him and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Sleep well?" Yusei asked half sweetly half suggestively.

Akiza nodded. "What happened to those two?" Akiza asked as she nodded her head toward Carly and Jack who were still passed out on the couch together, fully-clothed (thank god).

Yusei chuckled. "A little game of truth or dare."

Akiza laughed at the two teens before returning her attention to Yusei. She slithered her fingers into his damp hair that drew a soft half-moan half-sigh from him and he nuzzled her nose with his in response.

"Well, I'm gonna go." Sherry announced, but the couple barely noticed as she slipped through the door and locked it behind her.

As soon as Sherry was gone, Yusei grabbed Akiza roughly and smashed his lips into hers. The hand he put behind her head caressed her shortened tresses as Akiza kissed back. She ruffled his hair as Yusei drew tiny circles on the small of Akiza's back under her now rolled up blouse and camisole. Akiza moaned into Yusei's mouth, then pulled back a little to catch her breathe.

The two lovers looked into each others eyes for a moment before Yusei rested his forehead on hers. He tried to go in for another kiss, but Akiza slipped out of his embrace before he could catch her soft, plump lips. Akiza gestured towards Carly and Jack in an apologetic way. Yusei too Akiza's hand and led her to his bedroom.

Which had a lock on it.

Akiza smirked at him as he brought her inside and locked the door behind them. Akiza examined the room. It had a blue theme, unlike her purple room. There were silk cerulean curtains on his windows, and royal blue cover son his bed. Navy blue paint coated the walls and covered the floor in a plush carpet form. His desk was a light maple wood with a navy blue computer chair pushed into it neatly. There were some clothes scattered on the floor, some of which Akiza recognized from the night before, and a backpack was thrown into a corner. Akiza liked the room, it was very Yusei. Except for the clothes on the floor.

She turned around into Yusei's arms. His lips were on hers before she knew it, causing her to giggle into his mouth. She snaked her arms around his neck again as he kept a tight hold on either side of her waist.

After a while of just standing there and kissing, Akiza pulled Yusei down to his bed carefully- so his towel wouldn't fall off- while managing to keep her lips on his. Her hands ventured across his neck, lingered on his collar-bone and started down to his chest where she traced his muscles. She couldn't help but smirk into his lips.

Realizing that he was almost naked and she was fully clothed, she felt a little guilty and pulled her blouse and camisole off to reveal a faded red bra made of silk and a little lace. Yusei's jaw hung a little when he saw it, but Akiza paid it no mind as she captured his lips again.

She felt his hand travel up from her waist towards her chest and waited with anticipation. She had never experienced anything like this. She had never had any boyfriends before despite how many guys told her she was beautiful. She wanted to enjoy this as much as she could, because she liked this guy. She liked him a lot. He took her mind off things and made her feel good. He was good-looking too, and he really cared about her.

Right when he was about to grab her, a loud, obnoxious and pissed-sounding voice called; "YUSEI!"

Yusei froze mid make-out session, and jumped off of Akiza, causing his towel to fall. Luckily his back was turned to her when the damp material fell and Akiza was still lying back on his bed in confusion. He grabbed his boxers and slipped them on along with a pair of jeans and ran out into the living room.

Akiza followed a few moments later to find a very annoyed Jack laying under a drowsy Carly that had just woken up and hadn't taken in the scene she was in.

Yusei covered his mouth with his hand as he watched Carly take in her surroundings and blush madly.

"What the- OW!" Carly called as she tumbled off of Jack and in between the couch and coffee table.

Jack's eyes widened and he pushed the coffee table away from the couch and help Carly up. "You okay?" he asked, genuinely concerned for once.

Carly nodded her head a little then hissed as she grabbed the side of it. "Yeah, I'll be fine."

Akiza started giggling, which drew Jack and Carly's attention to her, then the crab head next to her. The two couch mates glared daggers at him as they started after him. He quickly shoved Akiza and himself inside his room and locked the door.

Akiza, still laughing, asked, "What did you do?"

Yusei looked a tiny bit nervous and looked over at her. "I laid Carly on top of Jack after they had both passed out and put a condom in Jack's hand.

Akiza laughed even louder and fell back on Yusei's bed, holding her stomach as she did so. Yusei felt a little pride rise up in him, but it diminished when Jack kicked in the door to his room.

Yusei jumped behind Akiza, using her as a shield and started laughing himself when he noticed Jack still had the condom in his hand.

To everyone's surprise, it was Carly who jumped on top of Akiza. She wrestled Akiza out of the way so Jack could get to Yusei.

"No!" Akiza called as she tried to jump in front of Yusei again, but she was too late.

Jack on top of Yusei, trying to pin him down so he could get a punch in. Akiza grabbed Jack's shoulders and tried to pry him off of her boyfriend, but to no avail. Carly just fell back on her butt and watched the scene play out, amused at the whole situation.

Akiza was becoming frustrated. She finally decided to wrap her arms around Jack's neck and her legs around waist and pull him back.

And it worked.

Jack fell back on top of Akiza who managed to slither out from underneath him before Yusei pinned the blond walking-ego. Akiza sat with Carly as they watched the boys wrestle it out until they were too tired to continue and just collapsed next to each other.

"Don't. Ever. Do that. AGAIN." Jack instructed, which just made Yusei laugh.

"What? You didn't like it?" Yusei teased. Jack glared at him but couldn't keep his head up that long and ended up just letting it flop back down.

"They probably would have ended up like that anyways. This way they still had their clothes on." Akiza said matter-of-factly.

Carly's eye twitched as she glared at Akiza who just smirked.

"You wanna go?" Carly threatened.

Akiza raised her eyebrow and smirked again. "Bring it on, klutz."

Carly pounced on Akiza and they started wrestling. The guys watched them, enjoying the play-fight a little too much.

"I think I'll get a beer. You want one?" Jack offered. Yusei nodded.

"Bring some for them too." Yusei advised. Jack tilted his head at Yusei a little shocked at the statement, but also a little proud.

"Sure thing." Jack replied. Yusei smirked.

This was going to be a fun morning.
