Let's see, this is my first Yu-Gi-Oh GX story and my first JadenBastion story. I hope everyone enjoys it.

How'd I Wind Up Loving You

Chapter One

It was completely illogical. How could he wind up loving him? Yet, that was exactly what had happened. Bastion Misawa had fallen in love with his rival, and kind-of friend, Jaden Yuki. The feelings started the first time he saw Jaden duel; they grew after Jaden beat him for the first time. He was still attracted to women, and he wasn't attracted to any other males; but there was something about Jaden that just made him want to kiss him every time he saw the boy. In all honesty, he believed himself to be going crazy.

He knew he wanted Jaden but, unfortunately, he had no idea of how to go about making Jaden his. 'Well, I can't do anything that would seem suspicious. Even Jaden's not that stupid. It has to involve something that he wouldn't suspect anything… I know! Dueling! I'll make a deal with him! Loser has to do anything the winner wants for a week. I'll make the perfect deck, so that not even Jaden's dumb luck could possible win.' And he set about to doing just that, working out a formula that would make the perfect deck to use against Jaden.

…

"Jaden?" The brunette turned when he heard his name called. "Oh, hi Bastion." He greeted the teen who was walking up to him. "Hey, Jaden, would you like to duel? I just put together a new deck and want to give it a spin." Bastion asked, trying not to sound to suspicious. If he sounded suspicious, Jaden didn't notice; the brunette's eyes lit up the moment he mentioned 'duel'. "A duel? When and where?" Jaden asked excitedly. 'Well, that part of the plan went rather smoothly.' Bastion noted mentally. "Right now, and right here, if you like. Only there's a catch." Bastion said aloud.

Jaden seemed extremely curious. "Oh? And what is it?" The brunette asked. "Loser has to do anything the winner wants for a week." Bastion told him, fighting back a smirk. Jaden nodded. "Okay. I haven't had a good challenge in a while."

…

Bastion lost. Despite his perfect deck, he still lost. 'Well, there goes my perfect plan.' He told himself, mentally sighing. Jaden came up to him, looking somewhat embarrassed. "Um, Bastion? About that catch thing- you know, the loser doing whatever the winner wants?" Jaden questioned hesitantly. "Yes Jaden, I now have to do anything you want for a week." Bastion confirmed. "Yeah, well, about that. Um, well, can we just do whatever you want to do? I know you didn't win, but I can't really think of anything. So, please?" Jaden asked, blushing pink.

Bastion chuckled. 'I wonder how eager he'll be when I tell him what I want.' He said to himself. "Well, if I had won, I was going to ask you out on a date." Bastion said aloud. Jaden blushed. "Oh, well, okay. Um, what time?" Jaden seemed embarrassed, but not backing down. 'So my plan just needed some fine-tuning. I'll still get what I want in the end.' Bastion told himself, smiling. "Well, it's a little late now. How about tomorrow? It's Saturday, and we'll be able to spend all day together." Bastion said, using one hand to bring Jaden closer to him and the other to tilt Jaden's head back.

Jaden's blush deepened. "O-okay. S-sounds g-great." The brunette managed to stammer out. "Then it's a date." With that said, Bastion placed a kiss on Jaden's lips, causing the brunette to gasp. Jaden's face was beat red when he pulled away. "Um, B-Bastion-" Bastion cut off Jaden words by pressing a finger gently to his lips. "A deal is a deal, Jaden. I shall see you tomorrow." He placed one last loving kiss on Jaden's forehead before stepping away from him and then heading back to his dorm. 'Hmm, I wonder how long it will take before Jaden is like putty in my hands?' He asked himself with a small smile playing about his lips.

TBC…
