AUTHOR'S NOTE: Today is Seto Kaiba's birthday! HURRAY! I am posting this actually almost five minutes before Monday is over with (EST)! I would of done it earlier, but I had an Academic Team match, which we lost!, and just wrote it out all day today, during school! I am very proud of myself!
WARNING: Just a slight one. Suggestive themes, you'll know when you get down towards the end. But, nothing else. :)
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! If I did, I would have Seto Kaiba's trenchcoat! But, since that's so hard to find now-a-days, then that's gonna be impossible! :P
The Pieces To Jounouchi's Heart
Getting up today, Jounouchi dreaded it for two reasons: One, it was Monday. Of course, most people do hate Mondays, but that wasn't the main reason. Reason number two: it was HIS birthday… His rival with the "I'm-so-rich-that-I-can-do-anything" attitude… Seto Kaiba's birthday was today. Why Jounouchi could remember that and not project due dates, he'll never know that! At first, Jounouchi would already be going straight back to bed and "claim" that he was sick.
However, he told Yugi (who told Yami) that he's going to surprise moneybags with something so AMAZING that Seto can't say no for an answer!
He grinned and decided to get dress and get ready for school.
"And to start it all off… I'll put this in his locker…"
Seto Kaiba was having a good Monday so far, even though it is only 7:30. Mokuba got up early and fixed him his birthday breakfast. But he could even tell the maids helped him. Seto smiled and thanked him. Even KaibaCorp was closed today. Seto felt nice and decided to, since Mokuba pleaded. Stepping out of his car, in parking spot 40, he grabbed his Anatomy book and walked into the school.
"Good morning, Kaiba!" Yugi called out, smiling, as Seto looked down at him. Seto nodded. "And Happy Birthday as well."
"Thanks." Seto murmured as he walked passed Yugi and Yami, both holding hands, as they watched Seto walk to his locker.
"Did Joey put the thing in his locker?"
"Yep! He said that this would be something "He couldn't say no to"!" Yugi explained as Yami smiled.
"Well, aibou, do you have any idea what he had in mind?" Yugi shook his head.
Seto walked to his locker, opened it, and a letter fell out. Yami and Yugi was right behind him. Seto put his book in the locker and opened the letter.
Seto Kaiba,
Every period that you have, go up to your teacher and ask if they have something for you. They will, trust me. When you gather all the puzzle pieces, which there should be seven, I will be waiting for you at a special spot with the last piece. Good luck finding out who I am!
Seto blinked at the letter, not knowing who wrote it. Yugi walked up behind him and picked up the first puzzle piece.
"Here, Kaiba. You dropped this." Yugi smiled as Seto took it from his hand, gently. Yugi even blinked as Yami walked behind his aibou.
"So… What does it say?" Yami asked as Seto glanced down at the piece.
" 'Seto'. It just says my name… How stupid." Seto put it in his pocket and grabbing his English book (British Literature), he walked to class. Yugi crossed his arms as Yami leaned on Seto's locker.
"He's doing a puzzle? Not very creative."
"But, isn't that what brought us together? I actually think it's a good idea." Yugi pointed out as Yami hugged him.
"Well, since we know Jou well, I think this will work out."
"I sure hope you're right…" Yugi looked up at his lover, closing his eyes.
Walking into his English class, he saw the usual idiots. Yugi's gang was there as well. Anzu was talking to Ryou, Honda and Otogi was playing Duel Monsters, Marik and Bakura copying Spanish II homework, and his puppy-er-Jounouchi-er-the MUTT was at his desk, sleeping.
Does he not get enough sleep at all? Wait! Why the hell would I care about the mutt at all?
Seto shook his head and walked to his desk, putting his stuff there, and walked towards the short teacher.
"Do you have something for me?"
I can at least give this a try.
"I do! Here you are!" She said, happily, as Seto opened the envelop and took the puzzle piece out. He walked to his desk and looked at the word, "Kaiba".
"So… This person decided to tell me who the heck I am. Nice… Good to know that I somehow forgot my name in the last year or two." He murmured, sarcastically, as Anzu glanced over at him.
"Ooooo! What's that?" Anzu asked as Joey lifted his head up.
"Someone left me this," Seto showed her the first piece, along with the newer piece, "and now I have my name."
Seto laid the words on his desk 'Seto Kaiba' as Anzu observed. She smiled and giggled.
Why is everyone so smiley today?
"What's so funny?"
"I know what this is! My friend, Miho," She leaned in closer to Seto's ear, "was given the same thing. It's a very cute thing, but she said no to him anyways."
Seto turned to face her face. "Well, tell me what it is!"
Anzu shook her head and got up. "I can't. It will ruin the fun and surprise!"
"Whatever. Just like you, not telling me anything." Seto put the pieces away and Jounouchi turned to face him. He was going to say something, but no words could come out at all.
It was finally lunch and since Seto was still in a good mood, he decided to sit with the Geek Squad, as he likes to call them. Sitting down, he had Anzu, Yugi, and Yami looking at him.
"What?"
"Well… How's that puzzle coming along?" Anzu asked as Yugi nodded.
"Oh… Here. You can all look." He took the pieces out and laid them on the table. He only had up to: "Seto Kaiba, will you go…" Anzu aww'ed as Yugi sighed.
"Let me say this: if someone is asking me out, I would have to say no." Seto announced as Anzu frowned.
"Why?"
Seto was silent, trying to figure out a reasonable reason.
"Because…"
"Because?"
"I love someone already."
"That's sweet! I didn't know you had a romantic side Kaiba! When did this begin?" Anzu pleaded to know as Seto smiled.
"Oh, for a while now." Yugi and Yami looked at each other.
/Does he already know?/ Yugi thought to Yami as Yami ate his apple.
/Probably, but I don't know. He isn't dumb./
/Yes… But will Jou-/
/Yugi… You worry too much./
Yugi blushed as Yami hugged his aibou as Jounouchi smiled, sipping his pink lemonade.
If I was that open with him… Then maybe…
Seto looked down at the puzzle pieces. It was almost complete. He needed one more piece and he knew it already, without it.
" 'Seto Kaiba, will you go out with' me? But…"
He looked to his left and saw that his puppy, MUTT, wasn't there. "He has been here…"
I wonder where he could be-Here I go again! I swear, I'm going to go home and not even think about Jounouchi for one moment! And I called him by his full last name! Geez… I NEED HELP!
He turned to his right and saw Otogi right there. "Hey, dice boy!"
"What Kaiba?" Otogi sighed as Seto rolled his eyes.
"Where's the mutt?"
Otogi looked around and crossed his arms. "He said that he wasn't feeling good today, so he's probably in the bathroom."
Seto frowned and felt sad.
He's sick? Man… Maybe that's why he didn't start any arguments with me today… Should I, at least, check up on him?
Seto gave up as the bell ringed. He got up slower than the rest of the class, and decided to walk to the bathroom. Okay, now Seto has to admit that this whole day has been great. But, he decided to go to his locker and saw something taped on his locker!
"The hell?"
He took it out and it was simple directions that lead to the garden. Seto blinked as he read the directions again. Everyone passes the garden everyday to get to the buses… Seto gulped as he put the directions into his locker and walked towards the garden. While walking, Seto's thoughts were going everywhere!
He noticed that there was A LOT of people. Seto's heart was beating fast, so fast that he thinks nothing will be able to stop it until he saw a big poster board. Seto moved closer and saw that the only word on it was ME in big letters, and also a question mark at the end. Seto was going to find out who brought him here!
Seto, grabbing the pieces out, and read each of them outloud.
" 'Seto Kaiba… Will you go out with…' " And looked up to see that the poster board was in front of him.
"…Me?"
For that moment, Seto's fast heart was able ot slow down and for the first time, he felt so relieved and is smiling without anyone caring.
"Seto Kaiba, will you go out with me?" Jounouchi asked, softly, as Seto took his hands, and put this on his face.
"…" Seto was very silent, not even knowing that Yugi and Yami were right behind them both. He hugged Jounouchi, burying his face into his neck.
"I heard at lunch that you love someone else, and I was very disappointed becaue I thought you wasn't in love with me! So, I still did the puzzle-"
Seto put his head on top of Jounouchi's own head and closed his eyes.
"I still, and will always, love you, my little puppy."
"Kiss why don't cha!"
Seto and Jou turned to see Mokuba right behind them, of course Yugi and Yami there as well. Seto grinned as he looked back to his puppy, eyes opened.
"Seto… Are you serious? You're gonna listen to-"
Jounouchi's mouth was shut as Seto's lips touched his. Everyone around them stopped to watch them, and even some clapped. They could possibly be on Cloud Nine and not come back to Earth.
"About time!"
"They look so cute together!"
"I wish them luck!"
"How far are they gonna go?"
"Kiss more!"
Jounouchi pushed his lover to just whisper, "My friends are saying all those things…"
"Well… Why don't we give them a show?"
"…Sure… But, can I give you a better show later on?" Jounouchi blushed as Seto leaned his lips towards Jou's own.
"Whenever you want to… Tonight, tomorrow, next month, whenever. When my puppy's ready, I will be." Seto whispered back as they both kissed again. Yugi and Yami smiled on, holding hands together, as Yami kissed his aibou's lips for a moment.
"I knew this would turn out a-okay!" Yugi pointed out as they stopped kissing.
"Yugi… What did I say? Besides, I hope that your gift to me will be that good."
Yugi giggled and nodded.
"That's one couple that could probably last a lifetime…"
After the lovers did their lovemaking, Seto gripped his hair and Jounouchi looked into Seto's eyes.
"This is one of… the best gifts… I ever had. No work at KaibaCorp, no homework…"
"And you have me now. I say that you… had a good birthday today my dragon."
Seto sat up and glanced at his lover. "Dragon?"
"Hey! You gave me a nickname, so why can't I give you one?"
Seto nodded and smiled. "I like it…"
"I knew you would. Good. And I really hope that you will treat me the same way I treated you when my birthday comes around." Seto turned to his puppy. "I love you so much that-"
Seto leaned in to kiss Jounouchi and silenced him.
"Jou… I know what you're going to say… How about you just put your head on my chest and I'll hug you until you and I fall asleep?"
"Okay… But, will I be-"
"Yes… You will be sore…" Jounouchi blushed as he rested his head on Seto's chest. He, accidentally, sniffed his nose as Seto glanced down at him.
"Did you just sniff my chest?"
"Well…"
He blushed even redder as Seto kissed Jou's forehead.
"Just get some sleep, my pup." He nodded and closed his eyes. Seto smiled, thanking God for the wonderful Monday he had! He has Jounouchi, a healthy life, a good job, and family… What more could Seto Kaiba ask for?
Don't forget to review please! Do it for Seto and Jounouchi! PLEASE! :)
