[[haha X3 I;m guessing you saw rejected cartoons before then :3 All I kept thinking about with Marik was this scene from Texas Chainsaw Massacre (remake) where the sheriff keeps telling the kid to stick the gun in his mouth and pull the trigger. There was another movie reference with that but I can't think of it
haha, the things our yami's do to us XP]]
Akiko did take notice in the change and couldn't tell why they did so. Seemed it just wasn't Amme who liked switching back and forth. She couldn't help but blush and smile a lot. She liked cherries a lot too. One of her favorite fruits. And she was pretty happy he thought she was sweet. And unique. "Yea, let's change the subject," she said happily and giggling a bit. "Although I have to agree with cherry," she said nodding and smiling while her eyes were closed.
For a second, Sen glared a little at Yuugi. He wasn't expecting such a reaction positive reaction from Akiko with his response. And his mannerism seemed to change, he didn't know why. "Well I like talking about Akiko," he said showing himself as more confident.
"No no, why don't we just talk about something else?" she said. She liked attention but this was too much. She wasn't like other girls who liked being attention whores.
"Well I do want to know Akiko, what is that around your neck?" he asked. "It's very pretty, did someone special give that to you?" he added.
She stopped and looked down at the orb. "Oh this?" she said holding the orb in her hand. "It's um, a necklace, you could say," she said not wanting to tell him anything about it. She really only trusted Yuugi with that info, since he was going through almost the same thing. She trusted Jonouchi too. She smiled a bit, "You could say someone important gave it to me. Never-the-less, it's very important to me."
"And why is it so important to you?" he said with a slight hint of darkness in his voice. It was very vague, but it was there.
Akiko smiled to herself, "One does not need a reason to make something special." She held the orb in her hand. "Don't you hold something close to you? If you did you would know what I mean," she said.
"Who did give you the orb Akiko?" Jonouchi asked innocently curious.
Akiko sighed a little, did she have to explain now? Couldn't she just tell Jonouchi later. "Just someone," she said.
Sen stared at the item around her neck. "No, I don't have something special," he said then looked into her eyes, "not yet at least."
"You lie you swine," Marik said knowing he was lying to Lerena. He didn't like the idea that more people were going to be after Lerena. He would have to ask her about that after they dealt with this a*****e and addressed her wound. "Talk is cheap, now where were we?" he said as he summoned his powers again. "Cut your own tongue off, swallow your tongue," he commanded him. In doing so the boy would die. He struggled, a lot. Marik made him do it slowly, smirking as he watched the boy do it. Once done he fell to the ground. Marik put the rod away and looked at Lerena. "The fool had it coming to him," he said. He seemed to snap out of it however when he saw she was still in pain. He put one arm around her and used his other hand to examine the wound. "Let's get you patched up ok?" he said in a much more gentle voice then he was using before.

((The scene where Kiba swallowed his tongue is a reference to a girl's mother forcefully swallowing some tongues in Umineko Episode 11. It was a very interesting scene, but cruel nevertheless.))
Lerena cackled as her enemy swallowed his tongue and died painfully. Then she explained what she could of the situation. "The Natsuki Clan and the Helena Clan have been enemies since a long time ago before I was born. You're probably wondering why. Well, you'll have to ask my grandmother; she knows why, but I don't." explained Lerena. "My past is very complex, but it can be summed up by one word: revenge." She nodded when he said her wound had to be fixed up. Lerena was glad that he still liked her even after some of her demonic traits showed. They were mere samples of her more demonic side and even Lerena could be more demonic than she showed Marik just now. "I'll answer any questions you have, but we should talk it over during a real meal when my wound is bandaged up."
Yugi smiled when she agreed and looked confused when Sen glared at him. He didn't say anything about it, but he wanted to. "I like talking about games myself." said Yugi. He was starting to feel nervous around Sen, like somehow he was evil. There were no signs, but he thought he heard a slight hint of darkness coming from him earlier. Was this paranoia or fact? Yugi wasn't sure, but Atemu seemed to agree. He put a hand on his Millennium Puzzle and sighed thoughtfully. He nearly missed Sen's statement about not having anything special to him, but he caught it. "Why were you staring at Akiko's Millennium Orb just now?" he asked, confused. This didn't seem good.

"Just admiring it, that's all," he said looking away eating some of his food.
Akiko looked at Yuugi and smiled a little. "Well I already know that you like Duel Monsters, any other game you like?" she said then went looking through her bag. She then put out a pack of traditional poker cards. "I always have these with me, or something," she said taking them out and shuffling them, "So? What would you like to play. I know most games. Or would you like me to choose?"
"Why not slap jack?" Jonouchi suggested smiling.
Akiko pointed at Jonouchi, "No, absolutely not. Not after the time I played with my friends."
"Aw why not?" he asked.
"Because people get too excited and start slapping each other. I'm not getting smacked in the face again," she said giggling a little bit about it.
Sen seemed uninterested in the game. He kept quiet and mainly watched Akiko from the corner of his eyes, either shuffling the cards or the orb. He smirked a little. He would have to talk to her when she was away from her friends- too much of her attention was on them. He also felt that she was far too interested in Yuugi and visa versa.
"Hmm, yes, revenge," he repeated thinking about what she said. He blinked, that's right. He had to take care of her wound. He lifted her up, holding her in a cradling style. "I think there is a pharmacy two stores down from here. It probably hurts to walk, so I'll bring you there. I just need peroxide and a good bandage patch," he said carrying her to the store. He didn't mind, he didn't want her to be in pain. Once there he let her down gently and took off his school jacket. "Just cover yourself so you don't draw attention. I'll be right back," he said going into the store He picked the items he needed and brought it to the counter.
The woman at the register pointed in shock at the blood stain on his own shirt. It was from Lerena's wound pressed up against his own body. He used the rod to make her give him the items. He was going to pay for it but didn't want to deal with the woman. He also took a white shirt similar to the one he was wearing and left the store.
He picked Lerena up again and brought her to the alley so he could help her without nosy people bugging them.

((I'm going out on a limb here and saying that Yugi likes all games XD))
Lerena blushed. This seemed like a pretty romantic date even though she was usually not into typical romance stuff. Her telepathic powers had aided her somewhat, but it wasn't enough to scare Kiba into running away. The Natsuki Clan was full of freaks that flirted with danger simply for the thrill. Each member had a goal and each member wanted certain members of the Helena Clan dead. Justin wanted Renoko dead and Kiba wanted her dead. But what sin did she commit for the other Natsuki Clan members? Why were other members coming after her? Perhaps her grandmother could tell her, but there seemed to be nothing for the Natsuki Clan to accomplish just by killing her. Lerena smiled the pain away. If she was with Marik, then she could sustain the pain. Even if it hurt, she had suffered far worse in her past. She came a long way in her life and she wouldn't lose to a minor flesh wound that could be treated easily. Lerena pulled up her shirt to reveal the wound so he could fix it better.
"You can choose. If I don't know how to play it, you can teach me." said Yugi with a smile. "I like all games as long as they're not too dangerous." he explained. Sen was still staring at Akiko and he was sort of annoyed by this. No one stares at a girl that much, not even if a guy's in love with her. Was he feeling just as protective of her as his yami? Nah, that's impossible. Sen wasn't that bad even if he did annoy him slightly. For some reason, Sen seemed to only care about something Akiko had, not necessarily for the person she was. He doubted that Sen actually cared for Akiko, because he did seem interested in the Millennium Orb.

"Well we only have a little bit of time before lunch ends. Just a simple game of Blackjack?" she suggested as she quickly and elegantly shuffled the cards. "I can be dealer, you guys can be the players. Jo you in?" she asked.
Jonouchi finished eating, "Hell yea I'm in. Deal those cards."
She looked over at Sen and asked, "You sure you don't want in?"
"No. I just like watching you play," he said leaning on his hand supported by his elbow. He watched her with dreamy eyes.
Akiko couldn't prevent the blush on her face. It wasn't that she liked Sen, not like that, but it was what he was saying and how he was saying it. It was just a stupid reaction. She dealt out the cards to Yuugi and Jonouchi, one face down and one faced up. She did the same for herself. "I'm sure you guys know how to play, but just as a refresher. In order to win you have to beat the dealer- get a higher score. But you can't go over 21 or you automatically lose. You can hit- take another card, or stay, not take a card and end your turn. Kings, Queens, and Jacks are worth ten. Aces can either be one or eleven. The dealer has to stop at seventeen," she explained. "Jonouchi you're first," she said flipping over his face down card. "You have a fifteen, hit or stay?" she asked him.
"Hit me," he said.
Akiko gave him another card. "A seven, 22, you bust," she said taking his cards away. She herself had a 9 and a face down card. "You're turn Yuugi, you have a 12, hit or stay?"
"Awwwww man! That stinks," he said pouting.
"Haha, my my aren't you a cute little gamer," Sen said as he watched her. He leaned over her so his chest would be against her shoulder. "What's your face down card? Can I see?" he said playfully trying to peek at it.
Akiko giggled and put her hand on the card so he wouldn't look at it. "No! Nobodies aloud to look at the dealer's face down card," she said still giggling a little. He was pushing against her, trying to get that card up. She was nervous more so then happy, thus the nervous giggles.
Marik took his shirt off and ripped part of it off so to use it to rub the blood away. He poured peroxide on it and wiped the wound gently. "I'm sorry this happened. I should have prevented it," he said feeling ashamed. He then put the bandage patch over the wound, followed by wrapping that around her stomach since the patch wasn't that sticky. Once he finished he looked at her shirt. "What are we going to do about your shirt?" he said grazing his fingers on the stained clothes. He then washed his hands with the peroxide and stood up. He bent down to lift Lerena up on her feet.
"Are you ok? I can get some pain killers or tylenol from the pharmacy as well," he said forgetting about that. He took his hand and caressed the side of Lerena's head, moving the hair that covered her face. He looked into her eyes, had he let her down? "Next time, if you see one of the Natsuki Clan members, I won't bother to wait to take care of them," he said still feeling horrible she was hurt. He started putting on his new shirt, buttoning down the buttons.

((Wow, the shortness of this post is amazing o.o))
"Hit me." said Yugi with a smile. He looked nervously at Sen. "Let her play the game, please." he requested, obviously nervous. His yami was annoyed by Sen's behavior, but Yugi refused to give him control. "The worst that can happen is I get a 22." he said with another smile at Akiko. He was glad to be playing a casual game for once. It had been so long since he got to play a good game without anything on the line. He usually played Duel Monsters, but this was a nice change of scenery.
"Let's hope the others are just as stupid." said Lerena with a smile as she got up. "Thanks." she said. "I don't want to sound like a spoiled brat, but it's probably best to buy me a new shirt at the store. A good shirt costs about fifteen bucks perhaps. Or you could just brainwash the person into giving me the shirt. Either method is fine." she remarked. "I can just put the new shirt over this one to get rid of the excessive attention. Then we'll probably have to go to a restaurant with air conditioning, because I get hot easily. I'm pretty hungry." Lerena explained. She couldn't help it; she was paler than most people in Japan.

"Aw come on, I think she likes the attention," he said ignoring the request.
"Hey, you heard him. Would you get off of her?" Jonouchi said stepping in just as aggravated this time as they all were.
"Sheesh ok, my goodness are your friends testy," he said backing off and sitting back.
Akiko sweatdropped. "I told you that your not supposed to," she said nicely only because she didn't want anyone to fight. She gave Yuugi his card. "Eight, you have 20," she said smiling, "I'm assuming you're staying?" she said with a small chuckle.
"I think you can beat him Akiko," he said just to tick off Yuugi.
"I have a 2 and a face down card," she said to him while she looked at him shaking her head making a face as if she was going to laugh at him. Yes like her mighty 2 and unknown card showed a sign of victory. She looked away from him and rolled her eyes a bit while smiling.
"No, it's no problem. I got myself a new shirt too. Besides, you don't deserve to be in blood splattered clothing. You're too pretty for that," he said. He then paused realizing what he said. Did he actually out and say that? Not that he didn't mean it, but he wasn't one to give compliments. But that one slid out as if it was natural. "Er... we can jump on the bike and find a nice store for you to get something. Where do you want to go?" he said trying to divert her from what he just said. He had to stop doing that, it was obvious he liked her and he knew she liked him. Why did he have to try and hide it still? What was he so afraid of? They began to walk to his bike. "I'm pretty hungry too. Unless you have a place in mind there is a certain place I would like to take you," he said.

Finally, Yugi allowed him to take over. He realized that his host was too frustrated at Sen to play the game with a clear mind. "Yes, I'm staying." said Atemu with a smile. He stared at Sen. "If you're trying to get on my nerves, it won't work. This game is too simple to get frustrated over losing in." remarked the former pharaoh. But he knew he'd play the game just as seriously as his regular duels, because he hated to lose. his past duels had a lot on the line so he didn't know how to be 'normal' when playing games. Sure he didn't start any shadow games or anything like that, but he was known to be dramatic.
She blushed, but was too busy distracted from the compliment with further talk to comment. "I want a shirt with attitude." she explained. "So any store with attitude-ish shirts should do fine. In my dictionary, attitude-ish is a word." Lerena continued to explain. She thought for a minute about where to go. "I'd like to go to that place." said Lerena with a smile. "Surprise me after I get fixed up with a new shirt." She walked to his bike with him. Once they got there, she put her helmet back on and waited for him to get on before she did.

Akiko flipped her face down card, "It's a 7, giving me nine. I have to hit until 17 or higher." She kept going until her cards equaled 18. "I gotta stop, dealer loses," she said smiling. "It's just blackjack, not like we bet anything on it. Besides, I don't mind if I lose. Nothing to get upset about," she said calmly. She liked winning, but she wasn't going to be upset that she lost. "Jonouchi why don't you be dealer?" she said handing him the deck, "it gets boring being the dealer after a while." She knew Atem took over again, he had this type of energy about him that made her want to play against him. Or perhaps that was Amme's feelings.
Amme took over, feeling excited about the game. "Perhaps this could be a bit more interesting," she said giving a smirk. She reached into Akiko's bag and searched for something. She took out three stones from a pouch that Akiko had in her bag. She laid them on the table, one was a rose quartz, one was a green turquoise, and the last one was a hematite. "Best out of three, winner gets the stones. They aren't worth anything unless you know the meanings behind them. Even so, they aren't of any value. Who ever gets the higher hand wins a stone. If dealer wins, nobody gets a stone. If we all bust nobody gets a stone. If it's a push, nobody gets a stone. First one to get two stones wins. Ready?" she said smirking, rather excited for this little game.
"Hey, how come I don't get a stone if I win?" Jonouchi said pouting.
"Because your the dealer and I said so," she said.
Akiko couldn't believe she was betting her stones! 'AMME! THOSE ARE MY STONES!!! You can't offer those! What if you lose them! Hey! Hey! HEY! Are you listening to me!? If you lose those I'll never forgive you!' she yelled at her.
Amme flinched a little from Akiko's yelling. 'You hold too much superstition about these anyway. But I won't lose them anyway,' she replied back to her. "Well? Do you agree?" she asked him as she gestured for Jonouchi to deal the cards out anyway.
Jonouchi dealt the cards accordingly. Amme had a 7 showing, Atemu had a 10 showing, and he had a 5 showing. He flipped Amme's card over, "You have a 3, 10 total."
"Why do you have stones with you?" he asked curiously.
"They have a meaning as does everything in this world. The question to really ask yourself is, do you care to find that meaning?" she said not looking at him and keeping her arms crossed.
"Taking this rather seriously aren't you? I thought you didn't care about losing," he said.
Amme ignored him, why was she speaking to an idiot? "Jonouchi, hit," she said tapping the table for another card.
Jonouchi gave her a card, "9, you have 19," he said.
"I'll stay," she said making the same gesture for staying. She looked at Atemu waiting for his turn to occur.
Marik put on his helmet and got onto the bike. Once Lerena was on he reved the motor. "No problem there. One attitude-ish store coming up," he said driving off looking for the best store he could. And he did. He parked and jumped off. This was defiantly their type of store. The store was called 'Black Moon', and it seemed to be filled with leather, corsets, band tees, geek tees, attitude tees, torn jeans, parachute pants, and even raver accessories. Everything hardcore, alternative, and different was here. He walked into the store and looked around. He's actually been here a few times. "Pick out something you like," he said.

Atemu smiled. "A ten, huh? Hm, I'm feeling a bit risky. How about you flip my card over, Jounouchi?" suggested Atemu. "I'm feeling lucky." He was having fun, but he knew Ammeterasu was in control. This made things more interesting. "I don't need the stones, but I don't want to lose either." he explained. Sen seemed confused. "Confused, are we?" he asked Sen. "You don't have to know anything." explained Atemu. "This game is between me and a friend. If you don't like that, you can leave." He still didn't like Sen, because of the way he treated Akiko earlier. Plus the fact he ignored Jounouchi also didn't sit well with him.
Lerena took off her helmet and smiled at the large neon letters advertising the name of the store. As she went inside, she took in her surroundings. Everything in here seemed awesome. "Nice choice." complimented Lerena as she walked over to the attitude tees. "Which shirt to pick. Oh, I love this one." Lerena remarked, pointing at a black shirt with bright lilac text that said 'I heard you; I just don't care'. The shirt was sleeveless and had a criss-cross collar. It was perfect for some of the morons she didn't want talking to her. She looked for a medium since that was her size and took it off the shelf. Even though she wanted other shirts, she wasn't obnoxious. She didn't want Marik spending too much on her even though he could just use the Rod to do whatever he wanted. "This one." she decided with a cool smile and bringing it up tot he front counter.

Amme was quite excited about the game as well. Something inside of her felt awake. She remembered that she did love games in her past life. She wasn't sure if she remembered that from Akiko's own love or the Pharaoh's. "No, you probably don't need them. But it's the only thing I can offer. Unless you would like to use money but I know the school won't permit that. Besides, these are more important spiritually then anything else," she said.
Jonouchi flipped Atemu's card over revealing it, "King, you got a 20 total," he said. When Atemu told him to stay, Jonouchi flipped his cards over, "I gotta 17, I can't hit anymore."
Sen sneered a little when Atemu spoke to him. How dare he say such things to him. "That's fine, I'll just watch then," he said with an opposing voice but still remained collected.
"You win this round, choose which ever one you want," she said giving her cards to Jonouchi and waiting for him to deal out the next set after Atemu chose his cards.
Marik chuckled at her choice. They walked up to the counter and there was a woman there with piercings all over her face, green short hair that was spiked a little in the back. She wore a white tank top that exposed her belly and black tight jeans. She was sitting on the counter when Marik and Lerena walked over.
"Oh!" she said as she jumped off of the counter so she could look at them. She put both of her elbows on the counter, placed her chin in her hands, and stuck her rear out. "Why hello there Otaku," she said flirtingly. She looked at Lerena as well, keeping that same flirtatious look. "And you brought a friend," she added.
"Why do you have to call me Otaku when I come in here every time?" he said rolling his eyes. He's seen this girl before, and every time it seemed that she would flirt with him. Just not him though, other times he saw her flirting with other people. Girls as well, so he assumed she was bi. However, he could careless, he had no interest in her and found her kind of annoying.
She rolled her eyes, "Cause you look like one," she said. She then saw the shirt they were buying. "Aw, you better be buying this for your girl," she said giving Lerena a wink.
"Yea yea," he said just wanting to get away from the girl. He saw her eyes, "Were you smoking again?" he questioned.
"When am I not?" she said ringing up the shirt. She looked at Lerena, "I'm Abby, are you Otaku's girlfriend?" she said sticking out her hand to shake Lerena's. She had fake nails on painted with black and white spirals on them.
"Abby, shut up and take the money. Then you can go back to your bong," he said handing her the money.
"Nuh uh uh uh, HOOKAH, not bong," she said winking. She took the money then handed them the bag.
[[hahaha, you can blame the creation of Abby on the game 'No More Heros' there's a shop (I don't even remember what it was for) but when you leave the girl says 'later Otaku (otaku = anime fan)' and it kept sticking with me when I was first thinking up the post. Because most of the shops there are that attitude, punk type theme. She was going to flirt with Marik, but I grew to like her for her to be a complete b***h, so she's kinda like this flirty punky, pot loving, bi chick. Lerena can take her or leave her, she was first created to cause problems so it's up to you how you want Lerena to react to the situation. I just couldn't not write this.
also, if the first half sounds off (before Marik's part) that's because while I was writing this I got into a fight with a family member and couldn't really think straight. If I wanted to write more I never got to. I had to save what I had at the moment onto notepad, leave, come back and finish. So yea..... fun times.
also, last side note, those rocks do have meanings. Spiritual meanings used a lot when it comes to Wiccans and witches. Only reason I know is because my friend is a wiccan, and I actually really adore some of the things about Wicca. It has this whimsical feeling about it. Akiko isn't a wiccan or anything, but you ever hear of stress stones? You rub them and the 'stress is supposed to rub away'? I was kinda thinking along those lines plus she keeps them as good luck due to there meanings. Amme will explain the meanings when each one is picked. It was the only thing I could think of her having also XP.]]

((At least Windows likes you. It began hating me and I kept getting all these viruses. I sacrificed a lot of stuff so I could change operating systems. I even lost Photoshop. She can still cause trouble if you want. Lerena definitely wants to smack her, LOL. Oooh, Wicca. Nice. I love Wicca. Severe writer's block for Atemu and Yugi wouldn't be any better. XD I'm not exactly sure who 'won' in your last post, but according to the rules, I believe that Atemu would win. I just wrote the post as if it didn't matter until you can clear things up.))
Lerena felt her cheeks flush pink and she glared at Abby before turning her head to look away. "His name's Marik." she remarked, her eyes drifting back to her when Marik asked if she'd been smoking again. "I'm not his girlfriend, but you best not flirt with him in front of me! I know that look." Lerena explained. She wanted to be his girlfriend and it was obvious since she got defensive. She took the bag from Abby's hand. "I'm not an angel, but I don't usually hang around your type. I prefer to keep my body healthy. And did you wink at me?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. Bi-sexual people weren't new to her since her sister was a lesbian (with the exception of Kaiba if she still likes him), but Abby was honestly the wrong type of bad girl for her tastes. Not that she cared, but it was practically obvious that the girl was bi-sexual. Lerena was in love with Marik and she wanted it to stay that way. "I'm going to the women's room to change." Lerena explained to Marik. "You can either wait outside or speak with Abby so you don't have to wait. It won't be long though." she remarked.
Atemu glared at Sen for his opposition but turned back to his best friend. He handed his cards to Jounouchi. "Either stone should be fine. Alright then, Jounouchi; deal out the next set." he remarked casually.

[[Atemu won the first round. Sorry, I should have double checked that post. ]]
"You should really choose your own, but this time I'll choose then," she said pushing the turquoise toward him. "In some beliefs, certain stones and mineral give off spiritual energies. That's why I wanted you to choose. We don't choose things by accident. Turquoise is supposed to align the chakras and open the heart. It also represents uplifting ones unconditional love," she explained tapping the table for cards to be dealt. "But it does not mean anything because I was the one that chose it," she added not making it seem like she gave him that one for a specific reason. She may have, but she didn't want him to think that.
Jonouchi dealt out the cards to all of them. Amme had an ace (11), Atemu had a Queen (10), and Jonouchi had a 4. "I do have to ask, why do you have these with you?" Jonouchi asked curiously.
"Jonouchi, ever hear of 'worry stones' or 'stress stones'? I use them like that. In a way you can say I believe in the energies they give off. They are personal," she said tapping her orb a little bit to try and hint to Jonouchi that they were Akiko's and not hers.
Jonouchi actually got the hint, "I see," he said. He wanted to ask her more about it, but he glanced at Sen. Amme didn't want to tell Sen before when he asked. He kinda wished the guy would go away, he was being obnoxious. Not only that, but he felt that he was hiding something but he didn't know what.
Sen was indeed hiding something but as long as he played this correctly, it wouldn't be known. His mannerisms and persona were all a fake, a cover up. Oh no, this was certainly not how he was at all. But he was very good at hiding it, he was good at tricking people. All in due time he would have what he wants, then it didn't matter what they would think of him. And the sooner the better, this girl seemed to have a split personality, of ADD perhaps. He wasn't sure.
"An ace hm? I think I have a very good chance this turn. Flip my card Jonouchi," she said. He did so to reveal a 10. "21, blackjack," she said sitting back and crossing her arms. "The only way to win this time is for either one of you to push me. In case of a push I don't get a stone, nobody does, and we start another round," she said as she sat back a little. She didn't feel completely in the clear- like she said she could be pushed. She felt confident she would win this round, but there was still that chance. "Your turn," she said to Atemu.
"Marik eh?" she repeated.
"I've told her that before and she still forgets," she said.
"I don't forget, I choose not to use it," she said smiling. "Awwww, you're not his girl friend? That's so sad. You can be my girlfriend if you want," she said smirking.
"Abby shut up," he said narrowing his eyes. He was actually was a little set back when Lerena said he wasn't her boyfriend. It didn't make him feel very good. Marik was always a possessive and selfish person. When he wanted something, it was his and nobody elses- nobody else was allowed to have it. If he was her boyfriend, nobody else could have her. Lerena had already walked to dressing room. "And she is my girlfriend," he said pointing that out to Abby, "Not like it matters, Lerena doesn't swing that way, but back off."
"Ever consider sharing?" she said sitting back up on the counter and winking.
Marik just glared at her and said nothing. He walked away from her and walked toward the dressing rooms. He couldn't go in so he waited outside. "Almost done?" he called out to Lerena. "Sorry about her, she's strange. Not just to me, to a lot of people. Usually if that other guy was here with her she wouldn't have been so...... strange," he said to her.

((I read my post at least three times for some reason. xD Sometimes I catch a typo, other times I just want to make sure it looks good.))
"Lets see if I've lost this round. Flip my card over, Jounouchi." said Atemu with a competitive smile. If the chance wasn't zero, he's take it and he was sure the chance wasn't zero. His chances of winning were slim, but it wouldn't be a game if he won so easily.
Lerena slipped on her shirt and posed in the mirror. She felt embarrassed when Marik called out to her. It was a good thing he couldn't see her posing in front of the mirror. "I'm finished. I was just checking myself out in the mirror." said Lerena. Why did she say that? Honestly, how blunt of her to say something she didn't even want to say! She wanted to blame Darla, but Darla didn't seem to like the idea of being blamed for something she definitely didn't do. "She's not usually that strange? The only thing that annoyed me with her is her attitude. I could tell she practically wanted to flirt with you and I won't stand for that! I can't help it; I just don't want anyone flirting with the guy I like." said Lerena walking out of the dressing room. "Let's eat then. I'm starving." she said exaggerating a bit. She was wondering if she should ask Marik if he wants to be her boyfriend since he was sort of new at the whole thing and Lerena knew that relationships should be made official by both parties. And yet, she was far too embarrassed to do that herself. But if she had heard Marik's earlier statement, she wouldn't have minded one bit. After all, when she wanted something, she typically did get her way.

[[If it's ok, I would like Amme to win this round. I'm thinking Atemu however should win the next, ultimately winning the whole game]]
Jonouchi flipped Atemu's card over, revealing an 9. "Total is 19, what are you going to do?" he asked him. He would lose if he stayed, and he would most likely bust if he tried to push.
Amme smiled from relief, but it wasn't completely over yet, he could choose to try for a push. However it was very unlikely. She didn't say anything, she wasn't one to trash talk too much. She was interested to see what he would do.
Marik almost blushed thinking about her first statement. He tried not to think about those type of thoughts. "Well, perhaps always strange, but controlled if someone else is in the store," he corrected himself. "Obviously," he said understanding she didn't want anyone flirting with him, "she's just a dumb ho anyway. I wouldn't worry about it." When she walked out he smiled at her. "Excellent, now let's get out of here," he said taking her hand and walking out of the store.
"Don't get yourself killed Otaku," Abby said waving, not knowing even what she was saying. She was pretty out of it.
"Idiot," he murmured to himself as a reply to Abby's goodbye. "I hope they fire her soon," he snared. He put his helmet on and gave Lerena her's, "I know, so am I. Alright, I'm going to bring you to the place I had in mind," he said getting on the bike and driving off. It didn't take long to get to the place. It was a fancy Italian restaurant. It didn't matter if they were under dressed, he could still get a table with the help of his rod. "So what do you think?" he said asking her if she would like the place.
[[I dunno why I chose Italian when they live in Japan O.o I guess cause Italian is such a popular cuisine. I could always change it to a hibatchi if you like or something else. Also sorry the blackjack part was short, I should have put that part at the end of my last post >.>]]
