Summary: Jou ends up in an unexpected date with Kaiba. SetoxJou

Dateland

"Welcome to Kaibaland, everyone!" The raven haired boy exclaimed with such pride and joy. Today was his eleventh birthday and his beloved older brother allowed his entire fifth grade classmates to celebrate the day in the empty, reserved amusement park. Not only were his fellow classmates were invited, but his favorite duelists (beside his brother of course), Yugi, Yami, and Jou were invited to the party.

His classmated roared in joy, running after Mokuba to their first ride. There were no supervision but the cameras, and for the children's freedom- this was heaven. Behind them were the three duelists, who were finally liberated after the Kaibaland gates were opened, since the children surrounded the three asking for autographs and such. Mokuba led them on and the three remained to themselves, slowly walking into the park with the map in their hand.

"I'm not exactly a fan of amusement parks." Yugi confessed.

"I have to admit," Yami followed. "Same here."

The look alike partners shared a chuckle under the sun, deciding to walk to the food court area for some drinks. The last blond duelist complained.

"Come on you guys, no lines, free rides," he began to speak, "We should have fun!" He grabbed Yugi's hand and began to pull the shorter friend toward a roller coaster.

"W-wait, Jou." Yugi stammered, almost a bit shy at Jou's approach. Yami then held Yugi's other arm and pulled him closer to him.

"Aw- this is no fun," Jou pouted, letting go as soon as he watched Yugi fall into Yami's grasp. "You two want love time, huh?"

"No, that's not it Jou-" Yami tried to explain calmly but the blond was already off into the vast forest-like adventure site.

Jou grumbled as he walked, regretting not buying a drink while he was there. It was bloody hot and walking through the stupid safari with holographic wild animals weren't too fun alone. When he ducked to get through the immense tree branch, he found himself bumping something roughly, causing his head to hit it quickly.

"What the hell?"

"Watch where you're going, mutt."

In that short amount of time, and in random no where, Jou met Seto Kaiba walking through the wilderness by himself. Quite different from usual cases, Kaiba was in a pair of jeans and a light white flannel- without the fancy tie. Jou stammered but quickly found composure. If he even had any, that is.

"What are you sneering about?" Jou snapped, but realizing that this was his park a bit too late.

"I can't believe Mokuba invited the dog imbecile. I should buy him some better friends." Seto spoke, taking a note to himself in mind. Jou laughed at the remark, watching Seto's eyebrows go up.

"You think you can buy anything, don't you, Kaiba?"

"I certainly can, will, and did. Now, mutt- I have a party to attend to." he snapped back, walking away from the blond.

"W-wait!"

Seto flinched, looking back at the blond he came across.

"What, mutt?" he spat at the boy dressed in a tight white shirt.

"I'm lost." Jou confessed, looking down the grassy floor.

Seto gave out a satisfied chuckle, returning to his position closer to Jou. He looked at his platinum watch and noticed he was about an hour early (like the prepared perfectionist that he was) and gave out a snort.

"Can't you sniff your way out?" he teased.

"Just shut up and tell me where to go. I don't need you of all people to accompany me."

"Fine," Seto growled. "Go straight about 0.5 miles, take a left towards north and in about 7 feet, you'll be at the dungeon. From there you can either take the train and get to Kaibatown or walk and get to river tribe."

Then he began to walk away, taking an easier route it seemed.

"Okay- I'll just follow-"

"What do you mean follow? I just told you the directions!"

"But," Jou stammered again. "I have to go to the party too!"

Good excuse, and Kaiba would give him that much. He smirked and reached to hold Jou's wrist.

"You just want to walk with me, eh Katsuya?" he teased once more.

"Shut up and walk, you prick." He snatched his hand away and began to follow the smirking brunet.

Literally in two minutes, they walked out and Jou found himself at the food court he was before, with Yugi and Yami still sitting there.

"Jou- Kaiba?" Yugi let out a cute remark and Yami chuckled.

"He invited you too?" Seto sighed, shaking his head. He reached for his phone and began to order Roland for the cake, food, and such.

"This sucks you guys. I didn't even reach a ride and I bumped to that bastard." Jou sighed as he sat next to Yugi.

"You want to ride something other than your crummy bicycle. Well that's not surprising." Seto clicked his phone and walked closer to Jou. "I tell you what, mutt. If Yugi stays and gets things prepared with Roland, I'll take you on every ride. If you're not scared, that is."

"What? Scared?" Jou stood from his seat.

"We'll help. Go along, Jou." Yami commented, finding Roland with a bunch of chefs carrying different food in each hand.

"But I got to ride with this guy? I don't know-"

"Fear does take a hold on weaklings."

"Every single ride, Kaiba. I can't wait to hear you scream like a girl."

And the two bashing on each other walked off.

"I hope Seto tell Jou today." Yugi sighed, leaning on Yami.

"You noticed, aibou?"

"Yeah, I mean, Seto always smiles when he ..fights with Jou."

"Jou would never admit it, but- they'll definitely make some couple."

Yami chuckled, holding Yugi's thin waist.

"I guess it became some sort of a date." Yugi giggled, as Roland entered huffing from the heavy luggage.

"Where is Mr. Kaiba going?" he complained, his sunglasses slipping out of his nose.

"He's on a date. Don't call him- we're here to assist."

With Yami's promising look, Roland nodded and called in the chefs to place the food.


"Look- its Seto Kaiba!" The group of kids gathered around the tall man as Mokuba giggled at his brother's popularity.

"Hey, Jou, are you his friend?" One kid questioned, nudging Jou's side.

"What? This prick? No way-" Jou finished and another kid stood in front.

"Yeah- some one as cool as Seto wouldn't be friends with some low second

rate duelist!" He spoke just like Kaiba, spitting his words toward the kid who questioned.

"Who are you calling a second rate? Jou's one of the best duelists in the world, you shrimp!" Then the boys glared at each other while the kids took sides, one beside Jou and the other Seto. Seto laughed heartily and Jou glared back, listening to the kids rant 'fight, fight, fight'.

"Even kids call you second rate, mutt." He heard over the crowd.

"You prick- if the kids weren't here I would-"

"Stop! All of you!"

All heads turned to the one boy who didn't take sides, standing right in the middle with his raven hair, now tied high on his head. His big eyes with furrowed eyebrows stared at the audience.

"My brother's friends with Jou, so you guys should be friends too!"

Mokuba the peacemaker broke off the fight, walking in between the children, then to the older men. He grabbed Jou's hand, then taking Seto's, meeting them toward each other to forcing their finger to twine with each other's. He whispered, then.

"Go on- tell them that you guys are the bestest friends."

"What-"

"Moki-"

"Its my birthday and I will not see my friends fighting." The innocent voice demanded angrily.

"Children, Jou is my bestest friend." Seto growled, obeying right away.

"Look- we're good friends!" Jou faked a smile, holding the tight grasped hands.

"So now we're gonna walk away," nudging Seto with his golden eyes. "And ride rides and have fun, so you should too!"

The once chanting kids all agreed and laughed it off, following the birthday boy leader onto the next roller coaster.

"Lunch in an hour, Mokuba!" Seto called, reminding his brother who in response waved with the biggest smile across his face.

What they haven't yet realized, was their hands still entangled in one.
