Romeo and… Romeo? : A Tale of Two MALE Lovers
By Hardcore G A S M
Hi guys! My name is Hardcore G A S M but please call me Billy. :3 This is not my first fanfiction on here but it is my first under this alias (name). It is very funny. So says my twin sister. However, many of my anime-crazed friends agree with her so… they decidedly forced me to put this up. –Looks behind her and sees friends with torches and pitchforks- Flames are ignored and I hope you enjoy KaixJou Pairings. I know I do. xD All of the stuff in here belongs to either Kazuki Takahashi, Square Enix (because I have some final fantasy characters in here), Billy Shakespeare, or me. (The plot and some of my OC's)
Chapter One
"A rose by any other… gender?"
He drummed his fingers on the desktop rhythmically with the clock that he watched… intensely. Tick thump tock thump. His foot wiggling with the near silent orchestra he composed. Him impatient? No, never. C'mon already! I am way too eager to get out of this damn class. –Sigh- The boy, 17, thought impatiently. His name is Seto Kaiba, CEO of Kaiba Corporations, and a "not-so-eccentric" billionaire.
"All right class you may begin to pack up…" the old hag named Ms.Wilson droned, "but there is something I want to mention to all of you kids." Her class groaned in disappointment. They knew that the upcoming speech meant either more work for them… or there was hell to pay.
"Every year all of the English teachers put their name in a hat. The head principal then chooses one and that teacher's class must do a play. This year… that class is you kids!" she added with joy, though the happiness in the entire class has been drained. Kaiba Looked away from the clock for the first time in an hour and stared at his teacher. Is this Bitch serious? There is now way in hell that I am going to do some frilly little "Play". He rolled his eyes and continued to stare at the teacher as she blabbed on.
"We will now be performing something classic but entertaining. Romeo & Juliet. I will be assigning parts… now." she hissed, mostly at the last part. Kaiba then heard a groan come from the creature behind him. He turned around to see the blonde mop of hair bad his head against the desk in frustration. Seeing this, Kaiba tried to stifle a laugh but it did not go unnoticed by the blonde.
His name, Jounouchi Katsuya, or Jou for short. He, also being 17, is the CEO of "Shit-Nothing" and the eccentric poor kid. He had seen a lot in his years. 'Nuff said. (I 3 you Jou) Jou raised his head to glare at the blue-eyed CEO… then flip him off. (Give him the finger, fly him the bird, ect.)
The merry band of teens Kaiba called the "Geek Squad," the "Dork Patrol," and more recently the "Loser Brigade," began laughing uncontrollably at the "Mutt's" reaction… but quietly enough so that the demon they called their teacher would not hear. The group consisted of Yugi Mouto and his identical counterpart Atem, Tristan Taylor, Anzu Mazaki, Ryou Hiroshima and his GRANDLY evil; counterpart Bakura, Marik Ishtar and his "twin" Malik, Cloud Strife, Reno, Rude, and the quiet and self-contained Aerith Gainsborough, as well as Cloud's new girlfriend, Tifa Lockheart. However, only a few of the aforementioned people were actually there. If they were all there however, it probably would have killed Kaiba slowly. Starting with his mind.
Kaiba seethed quietly in his chair trying to keep himself from mauling Jou to death. "All right class. All of your names are in this box right here. I will say the characters name, pull out on of your names and you will be assigned to that character. But don't worry. We are also having volunteers join us in our little play. Mostly people whom you all associate with and whom I was able to get a hold of by phone. So, not all of you will have to be in the show. Well, here I go!" She slowly then began to call characters and names. Some teens groaned in dissatisfaction while other cheered in pure joy. When it came down to the parts in the play, it went like this…

It all came down to what happened next. Kaiba, thinking that he would just be stuck with stage duty, was relieved greatly. "All right… our two main characters. Romeo Montague is… -pulls name- Kaiba Seto?" she yelled in shock. Kaiba's jaw dropped. He heard the loud and obnoxious laughter coming from the mutt and his friends. He closed his mouth and grit his teeth. The girls who had not been picked for a part, squealed in delight. They had a chance to "make-out" with Seto Kaiba. He was thoroughly pissed.
"Let's see now… SETTLE DOWN!" yelled Ms.Wilson at the chattering girls, "Thank you. Juliet of the Capulets will be… -pulls name-… Hmmm. Maybe not this name," Ms.Wilson said. All of the girls in the class screamed in unison a loud "NO!" and said whoever it was has to be Juliet, each sure of themselves that it was one of them. Ms.Wilson sighed and mouthed he OK. "Juliet of the Capulets will be… Jounouchi Katsuya." She sighed defeated. Jou turned pale. He heard people gasp in shock and girls begin to cry. He felt his blood drain from his face and goes to his toes. Jou looked at Kaiba. He too looked equally as pale as he was pissed. Jou jumped up.
"I object! T-that is disgusting! Rather it is more uncomforting… but nonetheless it is a mockery to Shakespeare's name!" he argued rather convincingly. The sad girls who had lost their chance began to nod in agreement feverishly.
"But Jou… back in Billy's time… there were ONLY male actors. And they were OK with that…" Ms.Wilson added. Jou began to stutter and the girls began to bawl in disappointment. Kaiba jumped up. "I refuse to be made a fool of! This will NEVER EVER HAPPEN!!" Kaiba screamed. Everyone shut up in shock. Kaiba had never lost his temper this bad before.
"Im sorry boys… but if you want to pass my class you will do this… or I will give you two detention for the rest of you high school lives with… Mr. Birkender." She threatened. Everyone gasped. Mr.Birkender had been convicted of child porn and pedophilia 18 times. However, he a had a good lawyer. A DAMNED good lawyer. Any boy (or man) would know to stay away from… it. He was that creepy. Jou and Kaiba shuddered in disgust. They would rather be stuck with each other rather than be stuck with him. They sat down and looked at each other. All of the girls began to cry again because they had yet again missed their chance.
-Kaiba's POV-
Godammit! I am screwed.
C'mon… you know your jumping up and down in joy.
No! I am NOT!
Yes you are. Because you think Jou is sexy.
NO I DO NOT. Now shut up, Brain!
Kaiba shrugged off the thing he called his conscience and began to wallow in self pity. Misery included. The bell signaling the end of school then rung.
-Jou's POV-
FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK.
I hope I have gotten my point across.
Yes. Yes you did. Now excuse me while I wash my ears out.
The two sat in their chairs for a while even though the bell had rung. They knew they were in for quite the ride. They then sighed and said quietly in unison…
"Damn."
The End of Chapter One! Hope you guys liked it! R7R! Please people please. Thank you. And I will have the next one up soon. In less than a week. But I can't truly promise that. xD
