“Hey guys, I thought we were going to that new club over on Main Street
tonight.”
‘You know that girl is really starting to get on my last nerve tonight’
Jounouchi thought to himself, but then again Anzu was one of his best friends,
that had to count for something. “Come on you guys promised me we would,” the
girl had started to whine. Jounouchi was so happy he wasn’t the one having to
pose as a date for her tonight, that lucky fellow was Honda, but only because
Jounouchi promised to put in a good word with his sister. The blonde boy sighed
and pointed directly to the dance floor where their friends were. “Ya gotta get
those two apart first,” he said. The song that was play finally stopped and the
two dancers came to join their group at the table.
“So what are we doing now?” Yugi asked everyone. “Well we kinda promised Anzu
there we would check out the new club she’s been talking about all week,”
Jounouchi replied to his petite friend. ‘Anything to get out of here’ he thought
to himself as the smoke and noise was starting to get to him.
As they left the building it dawned on them there was no way all five of them
could possible fit into Honda’s compact car. They had all come to the club
separately. “No prob, you all ride over and I’ll walk,” Jounouchi decided. The
others all started to object but he pointed out the 1) he could really use the
fresh air, 2) it wasn’t really that far, c) it was a nice night for a walk with
lots of light from the full moon and lastly he did happen to have a cell phone
if anything was to happen. “Look it’s not even a mile away, right? So it should
only take me a half-hour to an hour max,” the boy assured his friends, “if I’m
not there in an hour come looking for me…” Five minutes later, after promising
his friends he would call in a half-hour to let them know where he was, telling
them good-bye and see ya, and watching them drive off he started down the street.
‘Finally some peace and quite, wonder how long I can make this walk last?’ His
friends were the best but sometimes he just really needed sometime to himself,
time just to think about stuff. Like right now how he was so glad he had worn
his coat. The wind had started blowing, the breeze giving him a slight shill
after the warm body filled atmosphere of the club he had just left. Another
thought that came to his mind, ‘Damn should have got a pop before I left.’ He
had already gone too far down the street to turn back at this point, but at
least he did remember the park up ahead. ‘Oh yeah, the fountains at the park
will work. And I can sit down for a bit.’ Luckily for him the park was just
another block ahead of him so he ran to the gate. After finding the water
fountain and drink until he was ready to burst, Jounouchi walk over to the
swings to sit down. Like any child who’s ever jumped on a swing, the blonde’s
body automatically started the natural sway that comes with just sitting down
upon a seat of a swing. Laughing at himself and figuring that no one was around
to tease him, he started truly swing, arms and legs pumping lifting the swing
higher. Leaning back as far as he could every time his legs reached up to the
sky, Jounouchi felt as if he were flying.
‘Man the moon sure is nice tonight…”
