Ok, there we go!! This is my...um...fourth published story....I think. But yes, disclaimer please!!
Joey: Ren doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh, anything associated with it, nor the song "Broken Hearts, Torn up Letters..." by LostProphets. (she wishes she did)
Ren: Thanks...this was intended as one-shot, but I liked it too much to quit! And if you don't like it, do me a little favor and try the other stories. Please, I'm begging you!!! I also appreciate reviews, ANY reviews. Please please please ple-
Joey: Ok, just let the poor people go read Ren.
Ren: But...oh fine. ENJOY!

Melting Ice by Ren Hardy
Hands are in her pockets and she's scared to look
Picture's frozen and she's closed the book.
Jealousy has only got one friend
And Joey's heart was never meant to mend
The brunette spat to the side, a thin line of blood trailing his chin. He smirked at the boy laying on the ground at his feet. "That the best you got, puppy?"
The blonde emitted a soft growl and shot his leg out, catching the other's ankles and pulling him to the ground as well. He rolled to his knees and dropped on the brunette's stomach, amber eyes furious. "Stop calling me that! I've already told you, my name's Joey. God, you're an infuriating bastard Kaiba."
"You've mentioned that before, puppy." He pushed up from the ground, the blonde sliding into his lap. "Now if you wouldn't mind, get off. I have better things to do than waste time on another scrap with you of all people." Kaiba glanced to the side in seeming contempt, the shadows covering the light blush creeping onto his face.
"Well maybe I don't want you to go anywhere yet." Light fingers brushed the cut he'd left on the brunette's lip and trailed across to turn the boy's face back. He scanned the scuffed face until amber eyes connected with confused blue ones, and leaned in, pressing against bloody lips in a soft kiss. He wanted to show what he really felt toward the stubborn prick he was sitting on, but he was too much of a, well...stubborn prick, and every time he tried, it ended in one of their routine scraps. He pulled back from the boy, and shifted his gaze to the now seemingly fascinating ground. "Kai-"
"Get...off..." The brunette's eyes were screwed shut, and he spoke through clenched teeth. When the weight of the other was gone, he stood and strode away, muttering curses under his breath. He could feel the confused look from the other, but didn't dare turn around. He was already losing his self-control, and the look on Joey's face would just send him running back.
------Later that night------
Riiiiiing.
Riiiiiing.
RiiiiiiNG.
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!
"Alright, alright, I'm coming!" Joey rolled off the bed and trudged over to the phone and its incessant ringing. " Hello, Wheeler residence?"
???: (whispers) "I can't believe I'm doing this..."
Joey: "Helloooo? Anybody there?"
???: "Shut up and listen, mutt, I'm only saying this once."
Joey: "K-kaiba?! Jeez, haven't you tortured me enough for one day?" (moves to hang up phone)
Kaiba: "Wheeler, just listen! I didn't call to annoy you, though I sure as hell ought to. There's something I wanted to ask you."
Joey: "And that would be....? Why're you such an ass? What's your fascination with torturing me?"
Kaiba: "No! Why did you kiss me, after that fight?"
Joey: "...."
