TDOTCC: Truth or Dare 2 - pt.13

(...)

YORI: *closes her eyes as she lets him hug her*
KIRYU: ...
... Come on, let's go outside...
YORI: Ok... let's go...
KIRYU: *lets her go* You've got the key.
YORI: *takes key out from her right pocket* ...I almost don't want to see how they're going to react.... *as she opens the door*
BJ485: *hears the door opening and peeks out of the room when Kiryu and Yori got out*
...
CARLY: *peeks beside me*
KIRYU: Umm... a little help?...
YORI: *looking away* .... *sighs* ....
CARLY & BJ485: ...
...
BJ485: ... You two are one of, if not the craziest, couple I've ever seen.
KIRYU:
YORI: *giggles* …
BJ485: *sighs* (u.u)
*goes out of the room completely, and so does Carly*
Jack, do you have anything you could lend to Kiryu?
JACK: ...
BJ485: *to Yori* ... I think all of my clothes are too big for you.
I'll see if I can find anything of my aunt's...
Carly, give them some towels in the meantime.
CARLY: *goes past the two and into BJ485’s room to get some, as she goes into the room in the middle*
YORI: .... Sorry for the trouble.
BJ485: *from the room in the middle* It's okay.
I'm glad you're both alive and in one piece!
CARLY: *comes out of BJ485’s room and hands Yori and Kiryu the towels*
JACK: *coming out of my room, sighing; to Kiryu* All I have are my spare shirt and my summer jeans. *opening up the wardrobe in the corridor*
KIRYU: That'll be fine. I'll take a blanket or something...
JACK: *hands him the clothes*
BJ485: *coming out of the room, carrying a sweater and a pair of trousers; to Yori* Will these be okay?
YORI: *nods* Thank you. ^-^ I'll just use him *points at Kiryu* as a human heater if I feel cold. *smirks*
BJ485: *laughs*
KIRYU: *looks away smirking; then turns around and goes back into the bathroom, locking it behind him*
BJ485: *points to her room* (It's just on the right when you come out of the bathroom.) You can go in and change. I'll bring you the hair dryer and some hair brushes if you need any.
YORI: Thanks but I don't think one hair dryer is gonna be enough. *chuckles* ...This is gonna take forever....
BJ485: *thinking*
*Jack and Carly go back to the living room*
Could a fan heater help you somehow?
I'm guessing Kiryu's gonna do the same.
YORI: ...Yes, that would help...I think...I'll be right back. *goes to her room to change*
BJ485: *goes to get the things she needs and waits for her to change*
YORI: *comes out after a few minutes*
*she's holding her hair up with one hand so as not to get the clothes wet*
BJ485: Here... *hands her the hair dryer and the brushes*
The fan heater is in my room... Guess you could put it on the desk and make a double effect to speed things up...
... Can I help you somehow?
YORI: Yes, please. Could you brush the right side of my hair while I do the left? Kiryu was messing it up....
ME: Sure.
YORI: *after about 10 minutes they finishing brushing Yori's hair* ....
... *15 minutes later* ....
... I'll just tie it up.... -__- It's taking too long...
ME: *still not tired* Take your time.
It's not like we're going anywhere.
And Jack will probably be thankful for the brake.
YORI: *sighs* Okay.... but only for a little longer. My arm is getting tired....
ME: Well... Let me do it. Just instruct me how to.
Or maybe Carly could.... Wait just a sec!...
*goes to the door and calls Carly to come over*
YORI: *glad she can finally put down her arm* .... *mutters* Maybe I should cut it...
ME: ... But it looks great on you.
*Carly arrives*
CARLY: Yeah, what is it?
ME: Let's help her dry her hair. And you should be better at it then me.
CARLY: *looks at me, then at Yori*... Okay.
YORI: .... Thanks... My arm is too tired to keep up though...
CARLY & I: *one goes on one side each*
ME: ... So how did that between you and Kiryu happen anyway?
YORI: ...
*looks down* ... Um, we just talked and I told him.... everything...
And well, I *blushes* I like him... so I told him that...
ME: ... You told him everything?...
... Wait, you mean......??
YORI: *nods* .... He was really shocked....but...he accepted me.
ME: ... *blinks blankly* ... Which one of you?
CARLY: *confused*
YORI: I'm Sayori.... She said she'll sleep for now unless I need her...
ME: ...
*sighs*
You two are gonna get into whole lot of trouble one day.
YORI: *looks up to her* Why? *confused*
ME: ...
Well, you both pose as one person. And now you made a love triangle between Kiryu, 'Yori', and Yusei.
... If you really get between those two, it's gonna end up ugly...
YORI: .... You're right.... *looks down* ... I hadn't thought of that. *sighs* Well, Kiryu knows she likes Yusei... but I guess that really doesn't  solve anything...
ME: Yeah...
CARLY: ...
ME: *noticing Carly's confused face* Don't worry, I'll explain everything to you later.
*gets serious* But you have to promise not to tell anyone; as far as people from your world goes!
YORI: .... What should I do?.... Tell him the truth? Although I don't think she's ready to confess to him....
ME: *takes me a moment to get what she's saying*
I don't know. I think it's best to leave things the way they are now. And not to take it too far with Kiryu either.
YORI: *looks down sadly* ...I understand... I'll try...
ME: ..... Besides - when Cindy's time in your world passes, you might be the one left with heartbroken Yusei. And you'll have Kiryu to yourself, if things work out. But I doubt Kiryu would be able to simply ignore Yusei's feelings....
*sighs* .... Man did it get complicated....
... I should have thought twice; I kinda did the same thing Cindy did, only I've pulled others into my own world....
... I didn't thought it would come to anything like this.
YORI: When the time passes she will make choice... She doesn't really have to go back.... Rin granted her wish, so I'm sure if she has a new one it will be granted... *puts a hand on her head*
*groans* This is giving me headache...
ME: .... *decides to drop the subject for Sayori's sake*
Lets get your hair done first...
YORI: Thanks.... *10 minutes later*
.... I thought we would never finish...
ME: Well that was rather fast.
*chuckles*
CARLY: Hope you two didn't get tired of the game!
YORI: Nope. Let's keep playing.... *sighs*
... I don't know how I should treat Kiryu...
ME: .... Be a little bit more gentle with the guy....
He's really been through a lot, and I don't know if, nor how, would he be able to survive another heartbreak... Not to mention I think he's risking everything with you.
YORI: I know....I want to be close to him and show him how I feel but.... *sighs* I guess, I'll tell him I'll be switching again....
ME: (u.u) *sighs* It's gonna be a battle.
CARLY: *starts walking towards the door*
YORI: ...I don't think I can face him...I guess it's better if she does it. (V_V)
ME: ... Nope.
It's your fight to fight.
It's better if you wait until you're ready to do it yourself.
Knowing Kiryu, *smirks* he won't be satisfied with anything else.
YORI: But I can't! Not if I have hid my feelings so I won't hurt Yusei... *shakes head* I can't just act indifferent like Cindy to Kiryu....
ME: ... *shrugs*
... Whatever you do, you better make sure it's the right choice.
Now, let's go and have some more fun, while we're able to.
YORI: ...I hope I can.... *sighs*
ME: *puts a hand on her shoulder*
Relax.
I'm sure Kiryu's working on it too.
YORI: *takes a deep breath* OK...ready or not... *opens the door to go back to the living room*
OTHERS: *watching TV*
JACK: Oh, you're back...
CARLY: *goes and sits beside him*
JACK: -_-
KIRYU: *covered with a blanket, sitting on the floor; his hair is all dried up*
YORI: *to Kiryu* I really am gonna get you back. *smirks*
KIRYU: *growls lightly* -_-
YORI: *chuckles at his face* ....
*sighs to herself glad she's able to act normal* .... So, are we still playing?
CROW: Um, yep, who's turn was it now?
ATEMU: It should have been Kiryu and Aporia's...
YORI: So, I guess it's Kiryu's? Since we changed partners? *blinks confused*
KIRYU: *sighs* Oh why not.
We stopped playing by the rules over an hour ago... *reaches out to take a piece of paper*
YORI: *yawns* ...What did you get? *rubs eyes lightly*
CROW: *turns off the TV in the meantime*
KIRYU: ..."If you had 24 hours to live, what would you do, which

celebrity

would you want to kiss, and who would you notify that you are dying?"
...
YORI: .... Interesting.
KIRYU: ...
*tries to think of something good*
... Don't know - I would maybe end up thinking what I managed to do with my life...
*looks back at the paper*
And... I don't know...... Misty?
Kinda the only celebrity I know.
As for the notification......
... I doubt I would notify anyone......
... I'd leave a last will to Nico and West though.
YORI: *feeling a little uneasy* ....
CROW: *saw Yori's face* What burst your bubble?
YORI: *touches her forehead* ...Fever....*mutters* I need to stop thinking...
KIRYU: *worried*
*checks her forehead*
*takes the blanket off of him and wraps it around Yori*
JACK: *to Kiryu* Great! You overdid it!
KIRYU: *feeling guilty*
YORI: It's not his fault... I always get fevers when I'm thinking too much...
*to Kiryu* Thanks. *smiles a little*
KIRYU: *the guilty expression starts going away; mutters* ... It still is my fault... *looks down*
ME: ... Is there anything we can do to help?
YORI: I just need to stop thinking... *groans* The more I try the more I can't...
ATEMU: ... Is there anything that can get your full attention in an instant?
YORI: ....11x11=121, 12x12=144, 13x13=169, 14x14=196... *keeps multiplying* ...18x18=324, 19x19=361, 20x20=400...*sighs* Much better....
ME: u.u'' Thank God...
YORI: Sorry. ... I'll try not to push myself too hard...
ATEMU: *pokes me in the ribs*
ME: oo ...??
ATEMU: *points at the tasks*
ME: ... -_- ...
... *takes out a paper*
YORI: ...What did you get? *rubbing her temple*
ME: *reads to herself, then bursts into laughter*
OTHERS: ??
ME: ..."When was your first kiss? Your first tongue kiss? Who was it and what did you think about it in both cases?"
I wouldn't know! *lols*
OTHERS: -_-'
YORI: .... -__-
CROW: *sighs*
*takes out a task*
"Walk on your hands at least 3 steps" - ehh?!
ME:
Just do it!
CROW: *growls while standing up*
*goes to the middle of the room and gets on his hands; starts walking*
YORI: Almost makes me want to make him trip. *giggles*
OTHERS: *pretending they didn't hear that*
CROW: *makes 3 needed steps*
ME: ... You're not gonna stop now?!
CROW: *growls and makes a few more*
*then goes down on all four*
... That's it! I'm making up the dare or truth for the next person!
ME: .... But what about the tasks?!
CROW: I don't care!
Or let's just go back to the Zombie tag or something.
YORI: *giggles at Crow's outburst*...
KIRYU: *sneezes*
YORI: ...*to Kiryu* Bless you... *takes off the blanket and holds it in front of him* I think you need it more than I do.
KIRYU: *takes it, sits closer to her, then covers them both with the blanket*
*mutters* Just try anything, and I'm going to suffocate you with this blanket!...
YORI: *mutters* Who, me? *innocently*
*giggles*
KIRYU: *ignores her*
CROW: *goes back next to Yusei* Jack!
JACK: What?
CROW: Truth or dare?
JACK: Truth!
CROW: Describe the sexiest clothes you ever wore and why.
JACK: ... *dumbfounded*
YORI: XD *lols*
JACK: Crow, what kind of a question is that?
CROW: Oh don't play innocent with me.
OTHERS: *starting to enjoy the show*
JACK: ...
YORI:
JACK: ...
... What I find to be the most attractive clothes I have ever worn is the outfit I had specially made for the WRGP announcement party. A style fit only for a King!
ME: ...
... You have to describe it.
JACK: *growls* ... Why should I when you all remember it?!
YORI: 'Cause it's fun to see you get frustrated? *smirks*
JACK: -~-
ME: *chuckles*
JACK: Fine.
I asked for it to be elegant, but to fit the same style I normally appear in; the clothes were made out of the finest material, white and blue, with a gray vest, and, to top it all, a hat with a feather, fit for a gentleman as well!
KIRYU & I: *fighting back the laughter*
YORI: *a smirk escaped her lips and she put a hand over her mouth to fight back the laughter*
CARLY: ...
JACK: ... *seeing nobody has nothing to add* ... Yori, you're up next!
YORI: -__- OK.. *goes to get a paper*
CROW: ... Jack, I'd hate to break it to ya - but those were the least sexiest clothes you've ever worn.
JACK: What did you say?!
*Crow just stares back at him*
*Jack looks away* I am not going to answer such a stupid and vulgar question!
This is the only answer you're getting from me!
ME: *to Yori* ... What did you get?
CROW: ... Hey! I thought I said we were going to dare each other!
JACK: If I'm generous enough to put up with your every wish it doesn't mean everybody else is!
ME: *growls before Crow reacts*
*politely* Yori, take the paper!
YORI: *nods and takes out paper*
*reads to herself* ....Hmm. What's my idea on romance... *thinks for a moment* ...I don't believe in such things as 'happily ever after', or 'love conquers all', or 'fated to be together'. *snorts* I know those are all make believe.... *gives Kiryu a quick glance and looks away from him* For me I guess love is like a plant which is in need of two people to actually care for it to make it grow. Just like a plant needs nutrients and water... if one of them is missing the plant will eventually die... just like in a relationship there's a need of two people... I could go in more detail but that would take too long.
ME: That was well said.
YUSEI: Yeah.
OTHERS: ....
YORI: ....
CARLY: ... *pouting, in just a bit lower voice* ... But I believe in 'happily ever after'...
YORI: *to Carly* Sorry, it's just I'm a bit of a realist, I guess?
CARLY: *still pouting, a little sad though*
ME:
It's okay, 'Scoop-Snoop' - such things can happen, but you have to fight for it like crazy.
YORI: Sorry, Carly, I just don't believe in fairy tails anymore... Not even if I want to... *goes back to her seat but doesn't cover with the blanket anymore*
CROW: *looking down* ... Life never is a fairy tale....
JACK: But she *pointing at me* is right - if you want your life to be a fairy tale, you have to grab it with both hands and hold it as hard as you can!
CARLY:
YORI: Aww, Jack you're so nice... consoling Carly like that. *smirks*
JACK: *seriously; really meaning it* I'm not consoling anyone!
Whoever thinks he can gain any happiness in his life without any big efforts is a fool by all rights!
KIRYU: ... *seemingly a bit taken by the words; frowns as he lets it sink in*
CARLY: 8(
OTHERS: ...
YORI: *thinks about his words* ...I guess you're right....but then again happiness can be so different for everyone and there are many different kinds too....
... Let's just continue... -__-
*others shut their mouths when Yori says 'let's just continue', although they were prepared to rant further on the matter*
ME: *sighs*
... Who's turn is it?
I can't follow anymore...
ATEMU: Mine.
*takes out a paper*
*reads* "What's your favorite thing about the opposite sex?"
... -_-
*to me* This one's obviously yours, isn't it?
ME: (:0 Whatever would give you that idea?
*someone comes through the front door*
YORI: ....? *looks towards the door*
*Jaden comes in with the 'pets', shutting the door behind him very fast*
JADEN: Wow, that was....
ME: *getting up, hearing who that is, and going towards the door*
YORI: *looks slightly upset and looks again from the door*
*pouts*
ME: *looking at him, taking the leashes of the slightly hyper Tomcat and Coyi* ...
Where are the others??
JADEN: *confused, panting* What others?
ME: ...
I sent others to find you.
JADEN: ... We didn't see anyone.
I almost fell to that canal thing-a-ma-jig, or whatever it was! It was so close!...
ME: -_-
YORI: *to Kiryu* Heater, let me share the blanket again, I'm cold...
KIRYU: *speechless*
*holds it up for her to get in*
JADEN: Phew!
... You guys still playing?
ME: Yeah.
YORI: *mutters so only Kiryu can hear* Sorry.... *gets closer to him*
*in a normal voice* This feels better.
KIRYU: ... For what?
ME: *takes the leashes off*
TOMCAT: *walks into the living room*
YORI: *mutters* ...I have to keep my distance a bit...
JADEN: ... I'd hate to be so impolite, but umm...... do you have anything to eat? I'm starving.
YORI: *hears Jaden and glares* You ate my cake! How dare you say you still hungry! D:<
JADEN & I: ...
JADEN: ... Uhmm, well.... *scratches the back of his head*
YORI: I want my cake. *pouts*
OTHERS: ...
JADEN: ... I'm sorry, I was really hungry, and I can't remember when was the last time I had a cake and......
YORI: *looking upset*
*glances quickly at Kiryu as she tries to cover her legs too*
...
*groans* Fine, whatever! *continues pouting*
KIRYU: *confused about the glance*
JADEN: .... *still a bit uneasy*
ME: *sighs* u.u
Help yourself with the fridge.
JADEN: Thanks! ^^
*goes to the kitchen*
ME: *comes back into the room*
OTHERS: ....
*Crow looks puzzled*
YORI: *still shifting as she tries to cover her feet too* ....
KIRYU: ... What are you doing?
YORI: ... Covering?
KIRYU: ....
TOMCAT: *attracted with all the shifting; comes near Yori*
YORI: Here, Tomcat, stay close too. *takes a hand out from the cover to call him so she can pet him*
TOMCAT: ^^ *comes closer, almost knocking Kiryu out of the picture*
KIRYU: ... *regaining his composure*
Seriously, BJ485; you gotta train him more!...
ME: ... You think I haven't tried?!?
You try training a dragon!...
ATEMU: ... Didn't Hiccup give you any tips?
ME: No.
Last time I saw him, I asked him how to RAISE a Night Fury.
He was clueless!
... Anyway, weren't you going to do your truth? *smirks*
ATEMU: *sighs*
The emotional sensitivity.
Now next.
YORI: *giggles as she pets Tomcat* He's so cute!
CROW: ... *to Atemu* Wait, that's it?
*Jaden is heard nomming from the kitchen*
ATEMU: ...
CROW: ... Okay, just checking!
TOMCAT: ^^ *practically lies in Yori's lap*
KIRYU: *trying to ignore it, and make himself comfortable*
JACK: *watching the 3 of them*
*sarcastically* My, don't you fell a bit too cold this evening?
YORI: *rolls eyes* Can't help it, it's not like I can turn him on to make him hotter!
OTHERS: ...
JACK, CROW & I: *burst into laughter*
CARLY & ATEMU: *snicker*
KIRYU:
YUSEI: *finds it amusing*
*Jaden peeks into the living room, cheeks swollen with food and Coyi peeks from the corridor*
YORI: ...*realizes what she said* ...That didn't come out right... -__-U
TOMCAT, JADEN & COYI: ?
*the laughter dies out*
KIRYU: *looking in the opposite direction, smirking*
CROW: Aheheheheheh!
Oh... This one was something I won't forget soon!...
YORI: *red faced; cracks knuckles* Need help?
CROW: *rolls onto his back*
KIRYU: Calm down Yori - he'll forget it first thing in the morning...
YORI: *covers face embarrassed*
*groans*
KIRYU: ....
... Hey, are you okay? You're acting weird...
YORI: *stands up abruptly* Ugh! It's too hot! *goes to the bathroom*
JACK:
KIRYU: *completely puzzled*
TOMCAT: *same with him - his bed just ran away*
YORI: *comes back with her bangs a bit wet*
*sits back on her seat* ....
JADEN: *sneaks up behind me*
Hey BJ - can I ask you for a dryer too? My pants and jacket are a bit wet...
ME: *noticing* Dang Jaden - why didn't you tell me right away!
I'll get it...
JADEN: *stays kneeling on the floor where I was, watching me leave the room*
OTHERS: ...
JADEN: ...
YORI: ... So, who's next?
YUSEI: ... I am.
ME: *comes back with the hair dryer*
*gives it to Jaden*
JADEN: Oh thanks!
... Where should I plug it in?...
ME: *points him to the kitchen* There - just be careful around the sink.
JADEN: *goes where shown*
YUSEI: *takes out a task*
*unwraps the paper* .....
... Strange....
.. The paper is blank...
OTHERS: ?
JACK: ... Then get another one!
YUSEI: *reaches out again*
*the lights go off*
