The night was dark around Pegasus' little island abode. Joey wondered looking for Kaiba, knowing the dark haired elder would be somewhere on his own. Mokuba missing had never done well for the elder Kaiba and no one else was willing to look for him.

Finally he found the elder Kaiba alone in a tower, looking over the grounds, lost.

"You'll get him back." Joey spoke quietly. Kaiba didn't turn around, only snorted in response. Joey sighed, and sent and stood next to him silently.

"Pegasus cheats." The brunette finally voiced his one concern. Joey sighed in return.

"You will get Mokuba back." He stated again, turning and facing the brunette. Kaiba returned his look with a sidelong glance. There was something else in those cold eyes between hurt, pain, and worry. Joey couldn't quite identify it.

Swifter than Joey was prepared for, Kaiba turned and pinned him to the railing, one hand on each side holding him in place.

"I could get rid of you right now…" Kaiba spoke in a deadly quiet voice.

"You won't." Joey replied with a slight smirk.

Kaiba smirked shifting closer to the younger blonde. Their bodies were flush against each other as Joey let out a light gasp and closed his eyes as Kaiba's right hand ghosted over his hip.

"You're so confident in yourself. I will never understand why." Kaiba said resting his forehead against Joey's. His eyes fluttered closed as he left out a breath of air. He felt as Joey closed his eyes and let out a breath neither realized he was holding as he brought their lips together in a tentative kiss.

It took all of seconds for Kaiba to pull the blonde closer still by the hips. He felt the others arms snake to around his neck as the kiss deepened further. Kaiba's tongue glancing at Joey's lips begging for entrance.

Though neither would admit it. The sparks flew. Kaiba held on desperately, yearning to be held, yearning to not be alone. Joey for his part was lost in the feeling. He'd never considered for a moment that checking up on Kaiba may turn into a make out session. Hell he just was looking for a chat. Now though, now he could taste Kaiba, and he couldn't get enough.

It was too soon before Joey reluctantly pulled back, breathing heavy with a soft smile on his face that didn't quite reach his eyes. "He'll be fine Kaiba. I promise." He said with a note of finality.

Joey took Kaiba's hand from his hips and left in silence, not going back. He was almost surprised that Kaiba hadn't called him back for some threats.

Kaiba stood there looking back out over the grounds. A small smile gracing his handsome lips. Joey need not know that was his first kiss. He didn't need to know that that was what he needed. He didn't need to know he didn't get called back because he knew already that the blonde was not at all out to his friends. Kaiba, until the moment the others lips were on his hadn't been sure if he was right… He was though, and that was what mattered.
