Chapter One: Game Of Seduction

Author POV

                Ren Tao was glaring at the ground frustratingly as he paced back, and forth in his apartment. His eyes immediately landed on a specific spot on the couch as he decided to sit down. Slowly, his thoughts began to wander towards a certain brown haired teen, with stunning large innocent black eyes. Ren picked up a small notepad, and began to list reasons of why he hated the particular someone. And why they'd be completely wrong for one another.

                "He's engaged... he's engaged... he's engaged... dammit, he's engaged!" Ren yelled, slamming the notepad to the ground in anger. His mind was clouded over as he remembered the moment he first encountered the silent one. His eyes softened as he thought back," Baka... he let his guard down and he paid for it. Got him stuck in a hospital, I swear he's nothing but a simple, and carefree teen. Or so he acts like it... What really goes on in that boys mind?"

                Suddenly a tall form of a grown up woman walked over," Ren Tao, stop pining over that Asakura boy, it will only lead you to no good." She sat down next to him, and crossed her legs," I swear, you're already to no good. You barely slept a wink last night—hadn't you noticed that I knocked on your door about ten times in one hour?"

                "No, and frankly I don't care," Ren snorted. He'd heard enough of his sister, Jun Tao's lectures. Nor did he enjoy her company much, due to the fact that she didn't support the idea of him being with Yoh Asakura, or any male for that matter. She was like those old-fashioned people, who believed woman, and man were meant to be together, and that was it. Not male with another of his same gender. But Ren didn't pay attention to her beliefs, even though at a certain point in his life—he believed the same thing.

                Ren stood up, and made way for the door, but felt his body pushed back by a strong hold. He turned around angrily, and saw Jun giving him a hard look of disapproval," He's engaged Ren, and he loves Anna—if you truly love him, you won't reveal your secret feelings for him. Believe me Ren, it's for your own good as well as his."

                However, Ren pushed Jun's arm away, and walked out the door, but still gave himself time to slam the door on his sister's face. Ren walked over to an elevator, and pushed the first floor button. Again, his thoughts drifted to Yoh... He wanted that silent teen, even if he still wanted to be the better Shaman of the two.

                The elevator finally stopped, and Ren walked out while keeping his serious look to cover up what he was feeling inside. The world didn't need to know of his love issues, and he wasn't about to go make it public. The mask he wore, was for those that were not to get close to him. He grinned slightly to himself when he thought of how to embarrass Anna in front of Yoh, but then it quickly wore off.

                How can I really embarrass that girl? I'd rather lose to Yoh, than to face her. She's not worthy of Yoh Asakura... always bossing him around like there's no tomorrow, just to make him stronger. There's better ways for Yoh to become stronger, than to be stressed by the one who's supposedly going to be his future wife. No—I will not let that happen. Yoh is mine, and I will not settle for being his friend... Anna may be scary, but Yoh is worth more than the fear of being near that girl.

                Silently, Ren slipped in to a dark alleyway, and began to devise a plan. Perhaps—he could chain Yoh up while he was sleeping? Yes—that would be fun. It would be like an erotic dream Ren had once, where Yoh's body was... well, very erotically posed without anything but the chains wrapped around his body to keep him in place. Ren suddenly shook his head," Bad thoughts Ren, bad thoughts! Yoh would be completely scarred for life if—"

                "If what?" Came a sneaky voice. Immediately, Ren turned around, and found his shoulders were suddenly pinned to the wall of a beaten up apartment. Ren's breathing stopped for about a mili-second before realizing whom it was, which caused his breathing to shorten awhile longer. It wasn't really fear that got Ren in this state... it was who it was that did.

                "Horo Horo, what do you want!" Ren snarled, glaring right at the icy blue haired teens face. Horo Horo paid no attention to the angry growl that escaped Ren's throat, and merely laughed insanely in an odd way before putting on a serious face again.

                "I came to see you, Ren... but I think you'd enjoy Yoh's company more," Horo Horo stated, then burst in to fits of laughter. He clutched his stomach, and tried to stifle the laughs that kept fighting to escape. Ren wasn't pleased with it at all, and pushed Horo Horo to the ground with an angry look blazing in his golden eyes.

                "Dare tell anybody of what you heard, I'll kill you," Ren threatened. Horo Horo just waved his hand at Ren's face, while his other hand remained clutched to his stomach.

                "Threaten to kiss me or something Ren? No wait—that would dampen your chances with Yoh, right?" Horo Horo laughed," But now I have something on you Ren, and it's a good change."

                "You've got nothing, because I'm telling Yoh today... right now actually, so beat it," Ren growled, walking away, and making his way towards the place Yoh lived. He began running faster, and faster till he finally made it by nightfall. And Yoh, would most likely be doing chores, or be fast asleep. Either way, Ren didn't care anymore. He just needed to get the teen away from the house, and in a secretive spot. Perhaps the forest nearby would be a good place.

                Ren quietly snuck towards the back, and peered in to Yoh's sleeping room. He saw Yoh wide-awake, sitting between Manta, and Ryu. But much to Ren's annoyance, Anna was sitting across from them, with the usual cold look on her face. It was decided then, that he'd take the oral approach, and just knock on their door. As soon as Ren did, he heard a loud thud of noise, and then Yoh opened the door with a slight relieved look on his face.

                But really, who could tell? Yoh had always been quiet about his emotions. It was his type, and Ren wanted to be the only one to bring out the emotions Yoh never showed to anybody. Now that—yes—that would be an accomplishment worth honor, or at least Ren thought so, given Yoh's nature.

                "Ren, come in," Yoh smiled politely," Umm, if you would like to come in of course." Ren gave a simple nod, and was immediately led in to the home by Yoh. The silent teen looked over at Ren secretly when he felt that the other serious teen wasn't looking. His cheeks flushed slightly, but he shook it off, and sat down between Manta, and Ryu once again. He watched as Ren looked the seating arrangement over, and seemed to look a little uncomfortable.

                Ryu knowingly noticed the discomfort, and even though he wasn't too fond of Ren, he moved a seat away from Yoh, and looked up at Ren with a generous grin," Sit Ren, don't just stand there." Ren gave a small glare at Ryu's direction, but sighed inwardly in his mind with relief that Ryu had done that for him. He'd already felt stupid enough standing there like an idiot.

                "Thanks," Ren muttered when nobody was paying attention. Ryu's eyes widened for a second, had he heard right? Did Ren actually thank him for giving him a place to sit? It must've been his imagination—for the world hadn't been taken over by Hao yet. Yep—that was proof enough for Ryu to shrug it off.

                Yoh yawned tiredly," Man I'm beat... we should all go to bed. Ren, would you like to stay... or do you have other plans?" Ren peered up at Yoh's direction, and then shook his head in answer to the teen's question. Yoh smiled warmly again, and gave a nod of acknowledgement. And unknown to them, Anna was silently glaring in Ren's direction.

                "Yoh, a thousand push ups tomorrow morning," Anna stated, and then she stood up," I better not hear you guys talking all night, or you'll be doing twice as much chores for the rest of your lives." With that said, she walked away, and left the others to gawk in silence. Yoh was the first to break their sudden quietness.

                "Anna... you learn to live with her," Yoh shrugged. He quietly crawled tiredly towards his white mattress, and pulled his same colored sheets, as well as his blankets comfortingly around his thin body. Ren took a spare bed next to Yoh before anyone else could claim it. Ryu took one on the opposite side of Yoh, and Manta took the one on the same end of Ryu.

                As soon as an hour passed by, Ren leaned over quietly towards Yoh's face, and then gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. All mine. Ren smiled, then pulled Yoh's mattress towards his own, so that if there were any questioning in the morning, the blame would go on Yoh, and not him. He cuddled Yoh's body close to his own, and then went to sleep.

                Unknowingly, a shadowed figure grinned by the window, and then crept in to the room. He snuck behind Yoh's back, and picked the boy up with ease. He smirked as he set Yoh's body inside the covers of Ren's blankets, and then put them both in compromising positions. He made sure to pull their covers around, so that there'd be more 'coincidental' situations discussed.

                You'll thank me for this sometime Yoh... and Ren. The figure moved away slickly, and left without a trace or nothing.
