Author's Note (A/N in future chapters): I OWN NOTHING!
I decided to make a fanfic about Yu-Gi-Oh! I was 12 or 13 when Yu-Gi-Oh! first came out. Now, I'm 23 and re-watching ALL the episodes! (My cousin is doing the same as well!) It's bringing back great memories of when my cousin and I would wake up early to watch Yu-Gi-Oh! on Saturday mornings and discuss about what would happen in the next episode. The show eventually led my cousin and I purchasing Yu-Gi-Oh! cards and dueling! We don't duel anymore, but we plan on dueling in the future since the show is bringing back nostalgic memories for us. As I'm watching, I've always wondered if these 2 characters would ever end up together. To my dismay, they never did! So I decided to write a fanfic consisting of Serenity Wheeler and Seto Kaiba. Am I the only one who thought they should have gotten together? They would make such a cute couple in my opinion. Sorry for the long author's note! Now, on to the story! Enjoy!
I hear the birds chirping and the smell of bacon in the air. I smile as I wake up, enjoying how this morning is slowy stimulating all of my senses. I slowly open my heavy eyelids and see a blurred vision of sunlight, seeping through my window blinds. I softly rub my eyes to get the sleep out of them. I sit up in my bed and stretch my arms up towards the ceiling followed with a big yawn. I feel revigorated! I can't believe it's the first day of school! My subconscious quickly reminds me. It's not JUST the first day of school. It's the first day of school of your senior year at Domino City High!
Five years ago, believe it or not, my mother was the one who suggested us moving to Domino City. When we were in Domino City for my eye surgery, my mother noticed I was happier than usual being around Joey. Even after my surgery, Joey would keep tabs on me to see how I was doing in the hospital while he was dueling in the Battle City Tournament. How awesome is my big brother? My mother could see that being around Joey kept me in high spirits even though I was stuck in the hospital for a whole week.
On our last day in Domino city, my mother asked me if I wanted to move to here. Shocked at the surprising idea, I asked why. She said seeing me smile everyday is a joy for her to see and didn't want to take away my smile by separating me and Joey again. And also, it's because of Joey that I was able to receive this operation to saving my sight. Tears begin streaming down my face as I told my mother "Yes" and hugged her. Leaving an old life behind and starting a new one excites me. I could see Joey after school everday! We could go to the beach like we used to when we were younger!
Ever since the move, me and Joey have spent more time together. Mother even invites him to dinner and asks if he'd like to spend the night. We're slowly becoming a family again! The decision to move to Domino City was the best idea ever!
I smile at the memory. I can't believe five years have already passed. A lot can happen in those five years. As much as Joey hates school, he has continued his education at Domino City University with the rest of the gang Yugi, Tristan, and Téa. He hasn't given up on dueling either. He perfects his deck almost everyday, thinks up of new strategies, and enters almost every single tournament that comes around. Silly Joey! Why can't you give up dueling already? I remind myself that dueling is his passion. I giggle at myself because I should know better than to think Joey would give up dueling.
"Serenity! Breakfast is ready!", Mother announces from the kitchen.
"I'll be down in a minute!"
Still sitting in my bed, I turn to look at my alarm clock. 7:30 a.m.! Crap! Where has the time gone?! I have to be at school at 8! I've been sitting in my bed reminiscing when I should be getting ready for school! I jump out of my bed and head to the bathroom. I take a quick shower, brush my teeth, and towel dry my hair as fast as I can. With a towel wrapped around me, I exit out the bathroom and go to my room again. I open my closet, take out my school uniform, and get dressed while taking a glance at the clock which reads 7:45 a.m. Fifteen minutes to go to school!
I put on my watch and grab my backpack, hurrying downstairs to the kitchen.
"Good morning, Serenity." Mother says smiling, standing over the stove cooking scrambled eggs.
"Morning!" I reply back. I pick up a bacon strip and take a bite. It's still deliciously warm. I grab the glass of orange juice already set on the table and take two, small gulps.
"Serenity, what's the hurry?" Mother asks.
"Sorry! I'm late for school! I have to be there in-" I look at my watch. "Twelve minutes!" I drink the rest of my orange juice and grab a piece of toast, to complete my somewhat of a breakfast, for the road. "Bye, Mom! I'll eat breakfast with you tomorrow!"
I run as fast as my little twig legs can take me. I take a bite of one corner of the toast and see my destination in sight, Domino City High School. "Almost there." I pant. I take another bite from a different corner of the toast. I move my left sleeve jacket up so I can see what time it is. My watch reads 7:57 a.m. I can make it! I put whatever's left of the toast into my mouth and head towards the finish line.
I'm close to the entrance of the school, happy that I'm not late.
"Serenity!" a female voice yells out my name.
Still running, I turn my head to the right and notice it's one of my friends. My friend smiles and waves at me. I smile and wave back at her as well. Then all of a sudden, I bump into someone.
"Ooof!" I groan as I fall backwards, dropping my toast, and land on my butt. I rub my head where it hurts. I open my eyes and look up to see who I bumped into. I can tell the stranger is a man. He has his hands in his pockets and his back turned against me, not turning around to see who bumped him. Is he not going to turn around and ask if I'm okay? What a jerk! Even though it's me who's the jerk for not looking at where I'm going and bumping into him, isn't he suppose to be a gentlemen and help me up? I guess chivalry is dead. I pick and dust myself off.
I walk towards the stranger. "I should've look at where I was going! I'm so sorry!" I say it so apologetically, hoping the stranger will forgive me. The stranger finally turns around. The first thing I notice is his glare. His blue eyes just stare at me. They don't look too forgiving or friendly. I take everything in and realized who I just bumped into! It's Seto Kaiba! Why is he here?!
Kaiba looks more mature than he did five years ago. I mean, he's always been mature because he had to take care of his little brother, Mokuba and run a company, but he doesn't seems like a jerk as he did before. What a stressful life he must've had. Taking care of Mokuba and running a company as a teenager. Aren't the fun years supposed to be your teenage years?
He is wearing a suit. His whole wardrobe is black. From his jacket to his dress shoes. His jacket isn't button, so it exposes his torso. Again, sticking with black, he's wearing a black dress shirt. Everything is black except his tie, which is white. Oh, he looks so handsome. He could be a model, but I doubt models glares evilly into the camera. I realize I'm gawking at him with my mouth open. I quickly close my mouth and feel my face turn red.
I can't help, but stutter my apology. "I-I-I'm so sorry Kaiba!"
Without waiting for a response from him, I run towards the entrance and enter the school, leaving Kaiba standing there by himself.
