"Come on! You guys totally suck at dares!" Joey growled.
Yugi sighed. He couldn't ever think of a dare good enough for him. To say the least his friends were bored, most of the time truth or dare would result out of that. Tristan, Joey, and Mokuba may have been bored but Yugi was nowhere near it. He was far too busy being extremely nervous about being in Kaiba's mansion, he didn't even remember the last time he had been here and if they weren't friends with Mokuba he most likely never would. They had come over yesterday since Mokuba had invited them and ended up staying the night. All during that time Yugi barely caught glance of the extremely attractive CEO that he'd had a crush on for nearly four months.
He thought that his crush was pretty pathetic, especially to have it for as long as he has. He just couldn't help it, something about the chilly brunette drove Yugi crazy. Unfortunately his feelings would never be returned, they were rivals after all. Kaiba hated Yugi and Yugi was supposed to hate Kaiba but he never could. He couldn't ever hate anyone, and definitely not Kaiba. Even though the feeling was not mutual. Unfortunately he knew for a fact that Kaiba hated him, he treated him like a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of his shoe about every time they encountered each other. Many times was Yugi discouraged by his acts of rudeness but still he strived for some kind of emotion other than hate from him.
Yugi knew he'd do anything just to get Kaiba to have a conversation with him, but because of how shy Yugi had become around him he couldn't even manage a hi. Though there was no doubt in his mind that even if he someday did he manage to say hi he'd get shot down and pushed aside. Yugi knew he should give up but he really liked Kaiba, he almost wanted to say he loved him, it wasn't like he was just meeting Kaiba either. He'd known him for possibly three years, they were never exactly friends though.
If only Yugi could be as fortunate as his counterpart Atem was with Seth. They had gotten married only a few weeks ago and were on their honeymoon in Egypt, he almost wanted to say he was jealous of him. If only he was that confident he might not have as much trouble as he was having now with Kaiba. Still, even if he was more confident it didn't mean that he would have that much more of a chance or would be acknowledged with the icy prince.
Yugi wasn't sure if any of his friends knew about his crush on Kaiba, but he didn't think they did. If so one of them surely would have acted on it by now, the only one that really did know was Atem and he had only encouraged Yugi to not give up. Many times Yugi had come close to, but because of Atem and the fact that he felt so strongly towards Kaiba kept him from doing so. Right now Yugi was just happy that his friends didn't know anything out his crush or love for Kaiba. If they did he knew he would have gotten a horrible dare like to kiss him or tell him that he had feelings for him, that would have amused Joey.
The time was about seven and they had just eaten before sitting down in the living room and playing the game. The sun was nearly setting in the sky and soon they most likely planned on going home, or at least Yugi did. As much as he loved actually being in Kaiba's house without breaking in, he was nearly about to explode due to his nerves that were bound tightly in his stomach.
"Sorry we aren't the truth or dare masters like you." Tristan mumbled over to Joey.
Joey glared. He stayed silent for a moment before a horrible expression crossed his face. One that said he had an idea, an idea that would most likely end up in someone getting hurt. "Oh! I got a dare for all three of you guys!" he stated. A grin showing up on his face.
"Please don't tell me it has anything to do with toilets…" Mokuba trailed weakly. A little earlier Joey had dared him to drink toilet water, it was not pretty.
"No! But have you guys heard of that mansion on the outskirts of town?" Joey questioned. Glancing between their faces.
"Oh yeah, the one they say is supposedly "haunted"?" Tristan asked.
Yugi already didn't like where this was going.
"Yeah! That one. I dare all three of you guys to spend the night in it!" Joey stated. He leaned back on the couch and crossed his arms. The grin never leaving his face.
Yugi's eyes widened. "No way!" he cried. There was no way he was actually going to spend the night in a place that was supposedly haunted, it already sent shivers up his spine. He rather take his chances with a toilet any day.
"Yeah, there's no way I'm doing that." Tristan agreed. After a moment he then smirked. "Actually, I'll go if you do."
"Ha, I don't think so. I dared you guys." Joey said.
Mokuba laughed. "I think your just scared!"
Joey turned his glare towards the raven haired boy. "No! I ain't scared!"
"Then why won't you come too?" Tristan questioned. "I think you are."
"I'm not scared!" Joey yelled angrily.
"Then come with us!" Tristan yelled back.
"No! I just said that I dared you guys! I can't dare myself!"
Tristan rolled his eyes. "Then I dare you to come with us and spend a night in the mansion."
"You can't do that! You have to complete your dare before you can dare someone else something!" Joey stated. Seeming to think himself as victorious.
Tristan just smirked in reply. "Then after we spend the night I'll dare you to spend a night in there all alone!"
The dirty blonde glared. "You wouldn't."
"I would."
Joey stared at him for a long moment before growling. "Fine! I'll go too but we're totally breaking the rules of the game!" Joey gazed to Yugi who was growing a fretful look. "That means no one can chicken out! Your coming too Yuge."
Yugi really, really, didn't want to do this. He hated the thought of it, there had to be a way he could talk Joey out of this. "But-"
When a tall CEO walked into the room Yugi stopped speaking. Kaiba glared at Joey, Tristan, and Yugi before looking at Mokuba. "What are these loser's still doing here?"
Joey snarled. He almost stood up but Mokuba spoke before he took any action.
"Seto, their my friends." Mokuba stated. Frowning at his older brother.
"Hmph. All I see are two losers and a stupid dog." he smirked at seeing how Joey reacted.
"Stupid dog! I'll show you the end of my fist!" he roared angrily while getting up and throwing a punch at Kaiba who just stepped away to miss it.
"Pathetic." he remarked harshly.
Joey fumed for a moment before calming to smirk. "If you're the big bad CEO you try to convince everyone you are, then coming with us to spend the night in a mansion wouldn't be very hard. How about it Kaiba?"
Kaiba snorted. "Me? Go somewhere with you? Your delusional, I have better things to do then waste my time with you morons."
Joey laughed at him. Something that made Kaiba glare. "Come on Kaiba, one night! I think you can handle that, right? Or are you afraid?"
Kaiba instantly turned away from him to leave. "I'm already wasting my time speaking to you."
Joey ran after Kaiba to stand in front of him with a big smirk plastered over his face. "Your scared aren't you? Wait until everyone finds out that Kaiba is afraid of spending the night In a deserted mansion!"
Kaiba merely pushed Joey away. "Shut up, Wheeler. I have a company to run."
Joey continued his mocking relentlessly. "Haha! Your totally chickening out!"
Yugi wondered why Joey was trying so hard to get Kaiba to come with them. Why would he want him to?
Eventually after more teasing and mocking Kaiba abruptly turned and pushed Joey back away from him angrily. "Fine! I'll go! But only because I don't trust any of you around Mokuba, I'm surprised he isn't already brainwashed by your stupidity."
Joey smirked at him. When Kaiba left he turned back to the others. "Let's get going!"
xXxXx
In the limo Yugi sat awkwardly next to Kaiba. His eyes staying glued to his lap as he tried to hide his feverish blush. In the back of the limo Mokuba, Joey, and Tristan sat conversing with each other quietly. Yugi had no idea what they could be talking about but he wished that this drive was faster. His whole body was heating up uncomfortably around the CEO, and even worse was he probably had noticed this and thought Yugi was even more of a loser then he already thought so.
He couldn't believe that Kaiba really thought he was a loser, that was very discouraging but he still couldn't help but blush around him and have the feeling of butterflies in his stomach. He didn't even remember the last time he'd been this close to Kaiba, possibly years. He almost felt like his friends had purposely made him sit next to Kaiba, why else would they then move away to converse among themselves? Yugi would have moved but he was way too nervous, if he moved Kaiba would look at him and when Kaiba was looking at him he would blush and when he blushed he got really nervous. The cycle never ended.
Honestly if Kaiba didn't know that Yugi had a crush on him then he would be completely surprised. Yugi was making it so obvious, but Kaiba probably didn't notice since he barely paid any attention to him anyways. He may be sitting next to Yugi but he was looking away from him with his arms crossed and glaring out the window. Yugi really wanted to say something but he couldn't think of anything, and even if he did think of something he probably wouldn't even be able to get it out of his mouth without it sounding completely stupid.
Once the limo finally stopped Joey and Mokuba were the first two out and already at the trunk getting the bare minimum of things they would need for one night. After they had the two bags and everyone was out of the limo it drove away leaving them in front of a large rustic mansion. Yugi gazed up at it and felt fear trickle up his spine, he couldn't even imagine this place at night. The lawn was a complete mess, grass and weeds grew matted together. The place looked like it had been abandoned for years.
When he saw an old shutter flap he jumped and ran over to Joey. He gripped his arm and almost began shaking. "I don't want to do this Joey!"
Joey chuckled and patted Yugi on the back. "It's alright bud. Nothin is gonna eat you."
Yugi looked to him and frowned. "When was it ever?"
Kaiba glared at Yugi before gazing to his brother. "Come on Mokuba, let's get this night over with already." he remarked as the two walked up the path towards the house.
Yugi looked after him and sighed. Now he probably thought he was completely pathetic for being frightened over a shutter. Yugi moved away from Joey and followed the two as they began walking towards the mansion.
Before even entering Joey almost fell through one of the boards on the porch it was so weak. Of course Kaiba had smirked and made a rude comment that almost started another fight. The foyer of the mansion looked just as old and worn as the outside had looked. There were missing floor boards, strange creaking sounds, cob webs on almost everything, and about every lamp was broken.
"Wow… this place is a total dump." Tristan remarked. Gazing around it.
"Yeah really, I wonder why they haven't torn it down yet." Joey stated.
"I bet they must be too afraid too!" Mokuba said in a try hard spooky voice.
"Please Mokuba." Kaiba stated. Glaring at the upper floor of the mansion. "Don't let these idiots convince you that this place is haunted. I've never heard such a ridiculous thing in all of my life."
Joey jumped forward to stand before everyone and point Kaiba out. "Non believer! They'll come for you first money bags! You better watch your back!" he said before going up the stairs first. Avoiding all of the gaps on the boards.
Kaiba glared at the back of him. "Stupid mutt." Kaiba remarked as he went after Joey up the stairs. Followed by Mokuba, Tristan, and Yugi.
Joey was the one to pick a random hallway to follow, and the first open room they walked into. There wasn't much inside except for three couches with sheets over them and a coffee table covered in dust.
"We'll stay in here." Joey dropped down the bags and began unpacking them. They'd brought three sleeping bags, three flashlights, some water, and food just in case. "Looks like we'll have to alternate sleeping, if we ever do…"
Yugi hated when Joey talked like that, it really freaked him out. He was already scared enough being here he didn't need Joey saying things to freak him out even more.
Joey picked up one of the flashlights and tossed it towards Yugi. "Catch!"
Yugi managed to catch it but stumbled backwards into Kaiba. He instantly turned and looked at him with red cheeks.
Kaiba only glared before pushing him away slightly. "Watch where you step!" he growled.
Yugi gazed instantly down to the floor in embarrassment. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean too…"
"You should be!" Kaiba snapped before looking away from Yugi annoyingly.
Yugi felt himself shrink. He hadn't meant too…
Joey glared at Kaiba before looking inside the bag. He pulled something out and glanced to Mokuba and Tristan to smirk slightly. Joey then approached Yugi and grabbed his wrist.
"Joey! What are you doing!" Yugi cried as Joey dragged his wrist closer to Kaiba's. When they were close enough he hastily snapped on the handcuffs and locked them in place. Yugi stayed disoriented for a moment before realizing what just happened. He really hated Joey right now. He didn't even have time to say anything before Kaiba's furious outburst.
"What! What the hell is the meaning of this Wheeler! Take these off right now or you'll really regret it!" He shouted furiously. A burning hatred growing for the dirty blonde.
Joey only smirked and shook his head. "When you guys aren't rivals anymore is when I'll take'em off."
"Damn it! I am not going to be handcuffed to Yugi!" he growled while lashing at Joey who ran to the other side of the room before Kaiba could touch him. Kaiba stomped after Joey, bringing Yugi along with him who was silent and completely red due to the fact he was actually handcuffed to Kaiba. When closer to Joey, Kaiba went to punch him but used the fist that had the handcuff on it. This caused Yugi's wrist to be harshly pulled forward and he whimpered loudly.
Joey frowned. "Careful Kaiba or you'll hurt Yugi."
"I don't give a shit if I hurt him or not! You damn well better get these handcuffs off, or I'll hit you so hard you won't wake up until next week!" he roared while trying again to punch him but only pulling on Yugi's wrist again to make him cry out in pain.
Joey laughed at him. "Fine! Hit me into next week! But can you even catch me?" Joey moved away from the CEO to stand in the doorframe.
Kaiba came after him, he would have moved faster if it weren't for Yugi who was slowing him down.
Joey only laughed again and moved out of the doorframe and into the hallway. When Kaiba and Yugi reached it Joey was nowhere in sight. Kaiba glanced both ways before growling and turning to glare at Yugi.
Kaiba then focused his attention back on Tristan and Mokuba. "Where is the extra key!"
"There isn't one. Joey is the only one who has it." Tristan replied.
That only made Kaiba even more enraged. He walked back into the room with Yugi and glared right at Tristan. "If he doesn't come back in five minutes I'm going to insure he never breathes again."
Yugi couldn't believe this had actually happened. How could Joey do this to him? Did he know about the crush he had on Kaiba? If so why didn't he say anything and how did he think this would help? If any it made things worse, now Kaiba was completely furious and probably resented him and Joey much more. You couldn't even hold a match to him without him exploding he was so angry, Yugi could actually feel the rage radiating off of the brunette.
Right now Yugi was more afraid of him then the mansion. What if he did something else to hurt him? Because when he had tried to punch Joey those two times it really hurt his wrist, he was surprised it hadn't been dislocated. Yugi really hoped that Joey showed up soon and took the handcuffs off of them.
