Hello, y'all. This is my first Yu-Gi-Oh fanfic. It originally started as a Seto/Katsuya love-ship, but, after hearing the song "Thank You For Being a Friend", I decided to change all that. I've written about six chapters so far, but I'm hesitant to update without reviews, so, be kind (and, trust me, I know that I'll read a continuing saga, absolutely love it, and then never review, so I won't hate you non-reviewers. I'm one of you.), and, please remember the rule we're all taught as children: if you don't have something nice to say, keep it to yourself, dammit!! Or, something like that.

Disclaimer: If I owned anything except the storyline, I wouldn't be here. Trust me.


Chapter One—Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head

Seto Kaiba walked down the street one late Friday night in the pouring rain. The young CEO tried to recall exactly why he was traveling through the streets of Domino being pummeled by a torrential downpour. He thought it had something to do with Mokuba saying how clear the day was, how it would never dare rain on such a beautiful day, and how Seto's chauffeur left early because his wife had just had a baby (the latter of reasons was mumbled rapidly and took Seto about half a minute to differentiate the words). Sometimes he wished he did not give in to his little brother so easily when he told him to walk and get fresh air. Not like he could really say "no" to those eyes. Sighing, he contented himself to walking in the rain, hoping to make it back to his mansion before he caught pneumonia.

Suddenly, he heard sounds of yelling and fighting and a young man was thrown out of an alleyway into an overflowed gutter. A couple of older men (drunk, by all appearances) threw their empty beer bottles at him and hobbled off back down the alley. Seto walked over to the figure and would have kept walking except for the shock of blond hair and recognizable features of the man in the gutter. He bent down and rolled him over. "Jounouchi?" The blond groaned and shifted in Seto's arms. "Well, I can't leave you here to drown. Mokuba wouldn't let me hear the end of it." With that, he hoisted Katsuya into his arms and carried him back to the mansion.
