(Ryou)

With what little money I had, I had gone out and bought my self some supplies for my new job. It was Friday and my first day too, al the feelings were strange and unnerving. Bit it was all encased in a layer of excitement. I mimicked the moves I saw the other guy do on the night I signed up and the girls were going wild. Cat calls from every corner of the room, people were practically jumping on to the stage to hand me money. Was I really that good?

I was given a break earlier and during that time some of the other ‘entertainers’ had come up to me. They were friendly for the most part and even showed me some new moves. Being the quick study that I am, in the half hour break I got I had learned practically every single move there was to show, using my own genius to create some new ones.

I even had myself a theme; I was the masked school boy. I wore my old school uniform and slowly teased and stripped my way down to a very tight leather outfit, all the while wearing my mask. I was now Atsui Ai, the newest and sexiest male stripper on the scene. The little noises I threw in as I pressed my self against the pole could send women in to comas. The manager already thought about putting in a special cage for me, to enhance my act and to keep the women from climbing on stage and tearing me to shreds. Flashy lights and fast music made my show all the better.

I had just gone on to my second break for the day feeling awesome, I could take on any thing, the world was my play ground, Atsui Ai was the sexiest damn stripper this side of domino. Send them to me! Male, or female, none could resist me!

Suddenly the phone range, my boss picked it up and with several annoyed words, he let out a sigh, giving some type of quick explanation before taking down an address. I walked over to see what that was about, and as he caught site of me, a twinkle gleamed in his eyes.

“Atsui my boy how are you, you’re killing them, honestly I think that one just had a heart attack you’re so damn hot. Big bucks, remember, big bucks if you keep up what you’re doing, by the way do you have some free time after work? There’s some extra money” he paused before quickly continuing before I could disagree. “ I knew you’d agree, well there’s this guy and he wants to hire some one from here for his party for him and a couple friends. The dude’s probably gay, can you handle?” I shook my head, but he wasn’t watching. “ Good, good I knew you could my boy, big bucks, you just got to go over there do that little dance of yours and maybe let them touch you a bit and you’ll be rolling in cash. They want you over there Saturday, here’s the address, they said if you bring pizza they’ll tip you the big bills. How’s that Atsui? Great! Well I got to go call an ambulance for the heart attack lady, now shoo” he said as he pushed me away.

I just stood there stunned for a moment….. wait, wait…. What just happened?

I looked at the address and at the time and at the day and at my life. So this is where life is leading me, well I’m on a lucky streak, maybe I could be like the strippers and hookers in the movies and steal the guys wallets once they’re knocked out on booze. Ryou the nerd would never do that, but Atsui the sexy pole dancer would.

If only Bakura could see me now, the look on his face would be priceless, I’m no longer the nerdy li sch school dork who got beat up and stuffed in lockers, who got robbed and stolen from, who had to live with Bakura and suffer under his cruel rule of terror. I’m a new person, cockier more self confident, I kick ass… yeah!

Tomorrow I’m going to show those losers what the meaning of hot is; the masked school boy is going to shock the pants right off of them.

I studied really hard all day, I didn’t learn as much as I thought I would but I learned a lot of things I never knew. Most of it was fascinating stuff. I learned how electricity goes through wires, how magnets have polar ends. I learned that fishes ejaculate in the water… that was kind of gross but that the last time I’m going in the water. I also learned about famous poets and famous play wrights. Scott sneaked in a little information that William Shakespeare was bisexual. I’m not sure if he was right or he was making fun of me but he sure as hell had some proof. I learned about the generals in wars and how they used special tactics that lead to their victory. I learned about math, in fact I excelled at it so much Mike was impressed. The numbers all made sense to me when in class I couldn’t make heads or tales. It was so refreshing and interesting, it was strange, and some times I didn’t get it right away but still……..

Still I will learn, I will show Ryou that I’m not stupid as he thinks, I’ll run him over in my monster truck of knowledge and he’ll be so impressed. The little runt thinks he’s so smart, I’ll put him to shame. I a semesters worth of homework in one day with some help from my friends. I turned it in and the teachers were so shocked one of them fainted. They asked me if I was feeling well, and my science teacher said, “Bakura… I know some times life gets hard, but drugs are never the answer, what ever your smokeing…”. I had to cut her off and tell her I hadn’t been doing drugs and that I was in my right mind. They all said in their own special way that they would raise my grade because of this amazing turn around. They were even impressed with the quality of the work.
The admiration was refreshing, when I was finished turning in my work and redoing quizzes the sun was starting to set. But I knew that none of my grades for any class fell below a C+. I was working my way up. I even ran around and signed up for as many extra curricular activities I could before every one left.

Though it only got hard when other students asked why I wanted to do this all. All I could say was, “I’m doing this to show all you stupid bums that I’m worth some thing, that I’m powerful and smart and that not only will I kick your asses in sports and after school for your snack money, I’ll kick the shit out of your grades as well. I’m going to start up a company and rule your lives, Seto Kiaba better beware, Bakura’s on the prowl and one day I’ll rule the world”.

That was usually enough because most of the other students had already pissed their pants half way through my explanation. I walked up to the principles office too. It was dark but his office light was still on. My friends waited out side while I went to go deal with ‘the man’.

He was shuffling papers when I walked in. He saw me and stopped adjusting him self in his leather swivel chair and leaning back.

“So Bakura, I hear that you’ve really, oh what’s the word, oh yeah ‘hauled ass’. Every one of your teachers reported a change in behavior, a willingness to learn. Now I know you probably cheated, you don’t have enough brains to fill a thimble let alone impress the faculty with grade A work. You know you’re a worthless flunky student who will be kicked out next year, I’ll make sure of it if I have to too” he said as he smirked at me.

I glared up at the prick, “I did do my work…i>sir” I hissed out. I stood up and slammed my hands against the table leaned forward on the hard wood desk, knocking aside some papers and stupid knickknacks. “I am NOT worthless, I CAN do all my work at A level, and I WILL graduate.” I growled out through clenched teeth.

The principal seemed frightened as he try to lean back as far away from me in his big chair as he could. I stood up and turned my back on him only tilting my head in his direction lazily as I sent him a very cold glare. “Stay out of my way, and when I surpass Ryou’s level of performance and start a business so big that I become ruler of this damn town. You’ll be the first to fall in my wake”..

I pushed the soft silver strands of hair out of my face and turned back to the door leaving the principal shaking in his shoes. Scott rushed to my side as soon as I exited the office, “Bakura are you ok?”. I nodded and looked down on the sement floor. The lights of those street lamps falling down in sick yellow patches as the quiet of the night whistled through the deserted school.
Maki and Chad looked at me worried before saying there good byes and returning home. Those were real friends… the kind that stick with you, my gang is the best, I’ll never forget them if I do make it to the top. It was so lonely in the night, even with Scott at my side, I missed Ryou… I missed him so bad. I wanted to see him again, to sit next to him on Saturday as he watched his cartoons. To joke with him and learn to cook. I started to cry, Scott noticed and hugged me.

“Bakura buddy, you know I’m always here for you. Its ok, what ever that bastered said isn’t true. Can tell you’re going to be a good student if you keep this up” Scott said as I stood stiff crying in his arms.

I nodded and wiped the tears away giving what some might call a smiled, “your right I won’t let that bull shitter get me down, see ya later I got to head home”. I rushed out of Scott’s grip and ran home. I knew Scott didn’t know that it was the loss of Ryou that made me cry, but maybe if I pretend that I don’t know too… maybe all the pain would go away.

I came to the house and unlocked the door. There was one message on my voice mail. One missed calls while I was away. I clicked the buttons and the voice message played out.

hey there Bakura, was up? any way I secured a pole dance for our event tomorrow, please be sure to make it, I don’t want to have to schedule. Man its going to cost a fortune if I do, and if I have to I’ll kick your ass so bad, you are so not making me miss this one great opportunity. Especially when I rounded up Malik and some beer. Remember to be here tomorrow

I rolled my eyes, Marik always cheered me up, and a party was just what I needed. Saturday was the big party day, and I’ll be damned if I miss it.
