  The science test went fairly well, I got a B+, a 92%, the highest B.  Mark is dancing around the room because he got a 93, an A. 

  "I have never done so well in science before!  You must be my lucky charm."  He said with that goofy grin I loved on his face.  I rolled my eyes and shoved my test in a folder.  I probably wouldn't find it till the end of the year.  That day at dinner, Dan was there, a black cast wrapped tightly around his wrist. 

  "You doing alright man?  That was a nasty fall."  Jack Douglas (jacksfilms) asked. 

  Dan nodded.  "Yea, still hurts."  He said, Phil sat by his side, a little closer then he needed to be.  I sat in my usual silence, listening them argue about one thing or another. 

  After dinner, I was for some unknown reason, exhausted.  I was sweating, and I felt like I was gonna hurl.  Mark took notice and gave me a concerned look.  "Are you ok Aaron?"  I looked over at him and gave him a thin smile. 

  "I guess, just not feeling to hot I guess."  As we neared our dorm, I felt like a nap on the concrete didn't sound too bad and dropped.  Mark quickly swooped down and caught me before I fell face first on the ground. 

  "Ok, that's it," Mark said as he swept me up into his arms and carried me in.  He carried me all the way to our dorm, then he gently put me on the ground.  "Just lean here for just a sec, you can do that right?"  I nodded. 

  He put the key in the lock and twisted it.  He came up under my arm and supported me to my bed where he dumped me off.  He quickly got several washcloths and covered them in cold water, placing one on my forehead, and two on my wrists.  He then got me a cup of water, sat me up, and had me drink it. 

  "Better?" 

  I simply nodded, and drifted off to sleep.

  I snuck out of the room after Yami fell asleep and decided to go out and have a little fun.  Not that my nights with Yami, Wade, and Bob weren't fun, I just need a bit of a change is all.  Maybe meet someone new, or meet up with some old friends.  I headed off to Dave and Busters, a popular place for highschoolers on a Friday night.  I walked in looked around at the flashing games and loud people.  Across the way, at the horse races, was Minx and Krism.  Krism was dancing around and acting all excited from her position at horse number two.  Minx was just smiling at her. 

  I thought about going over and talking to them, but decided against it.  I walked over to the basketball game, (even though I am not good at basketball, not even a little) and decided to try it.  I swiped the card I got last time I came here and started.  After I shot a few, only making one, someone came up next to me and started on the next hoop over. 

  "Not bad Mark."  The person beside me said.  Their voice was oddly familiar.... Felix!  After the round was over I looked over at him.  "Hey Fe, what you doing here?" 

  "Oh, you know, needed a break from all the attention from the ladies."  he said with a smile.  I rolled my eyes at him.  We played games for the rest of the night.  It was getting late, real late.  I thought I should head back and check on Yami. 

  Felix and I said our goodbyes and I headed back. 

  When I got back to our room, Yami was sleeping peacefully in his bed, the washcloths on his pillow and sheets.  I yawned and decided to follow pursuit with Yami and hit the hay. 


  Hey there!  Finally updating.  Feels good though.  I hope you enjoy this long awaited chapter! -Rebecca
