AN : as usual, half the chapter goes to Solarkittygirl (you may notice I added a whole lot of stuff from our original).

Warnings: just mainly a lot of sexual talk. and Spiritshipping has a big part in this.


Chapter two

The bargain

While Chazz and Alexis were talking about God knows what; Jaden meanwhile, was pacing back and forth. Syrus was sitting on the couch in their common room space. It's been a long time since the young blunette saw his best friend this nervous.

"Jay, will you stop pacing? It's giving me a headache," said Syrus. Jaden paused and looked at his best friend.

"Sorry Sy. I just don't know what's taking Jesse so long to get his cards," he answered. Syrus shrugged, not missing the slight panic in his friend's voice.

"He could've stopped by the party to see what's going on," he suggested.

"I dunno, but I'm getting restless," Jaden said. Yeah, I can see that, Syrus thought to himself.

"We should just wait for him a little longer," said Syrus, "he may be back in a minute or two." After a few more minutes, Alexis came back inside. "What did Chazz want?" Syrus asked, not looking at Jaden. He could feel him getting antsy again.

Alexis shrugged. "He just wanted a talk with Gecko -." She caught Jaden flinch at his name. She frowned. Maybe Chazz was right. Something was definitely going on. Syrus rolled his eyes.

"Probably going over to argue who was the richer one." Jaden stood up again.

"Can we go look for Jesse now? It's been at least 20 minutes since he's left."

"He has been gone for awhile, hasn't he?" said Alexis.

"Shouldn't we just wait for a few more minutes though?" Syrus suggested. Jaden shook his head.

"I'm worried about him, Sy. I need to know if he's alright. I'm gonna look for him."

"B-but Jaden-!" Syrus cried as he stood up. But it was too late, because Jaden already went rushing out the door in search for his boyfriend.

On his way to the blue dorm, Jaden nearly ran into Chazz. "Hey, watch where you're going, slacker," Chazz snapped. Jaden stopped.

"Sorry Chazz, I didn't see you there," the brunette apologized. Chazz calmed down somewhat. Now it was his chance to talk to Jaden and maybe get the answer he was looking for.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Jaden blushed a little.

"I was going to look for Jesse. He's been gone for awhile, and I was starting to get worried." Chazz's eyes widened.

"You mean he's not back yet?"

Jaden shook his head. "I have no idea where he could be. It's not like him to just go off and not come back for any reason." Okay, that was not the answer Chazz was looking for.

"You think he might've stopped by the party?" Chazz asked.

Jaden frowned. "No. He said he didn't want to go. He would've sent me a message if he was. It's not like him to not keep contact." Chazz frowned. Was Gecko going after Jesse now?

"Well anyway, I'm gonna go find him. See ya later, Chazz," Jaden said, as he started walking away and frantically looking for a sign of Jesse.

Jesse had been gone too long to grab his deck from his room. As the male's blue dorm came into view, Jaden stopped a minute to catch his breath. It gave him a minute to think things clearly. He really didn't want anyone to worry about him. It's really only been a couple of times that Gecko had sexually harassed him. He didn't want to make it a big deal, unless Gecko's done something to Jesse now. Which could've been the reason why Jesse had been gone for so long. Jaden's eyes widened as he realized that could've been exactly what happened. Now his worry for his boyfriend grew even stronger. What if that had been the case?

Jaden bit his lip with worry. Again, he sprinted off to towards the blue dorm's front entrance, hoping to God that wasn't the case and Jesse was just taking his damn time and worrying the shit out of everyone. Once he was inside, Jaden didn't get ten feet from the entrance hallway, he heard his name being called. And it wasn't Jesse's voice either. Jaden cringed; realizing who the voice belonged to. He slowly turned around, and sure enough, standing only a couple feet from him was Adrian Gecko.

"Where's Jesse?" Jaden demanded right away. He wanted to end being near Adrian as quickly as possible. Adrian however, just shrugged.

"I don't know where Andersen is. He's not at the party, because I was just there," he replied, calmly.

"You bastard, you did something to him, didn't you?" Jaden accused angrily. Adrian glared at him.

"You should learn how to talk to your superiors, Slifer." Jaden rolled his eyes.

"Yeah right, your money thing doesn't bother me at all. You're probably, what, a little richer then Chazz?" Jaden smirked. Adrian narrowed his eyes. Oh that does it. No one insulted him and got away with it.

"You know, I haven't touched your precious boyfriend. But I was coming to see you," Adrian smirked. "And since everyone's at the party, they're not going to hear you. And just for that insult, I'm not going to go easy on you."

Jaden gulped silently at his sickening smirk, but tried to stay confident. "Well, you're shit out of luck, Gecko. Leave Jess and me alone." Jaden turned around and started walking away quickly and stopped abruptly when he felt Adrian's hand take hold of his wrist in an iron grip. "H-hey, let go of me!" Jaden demanded, as he tried to get his arm free.

Adrian's smirk widened. "I don't think so. You and me, we're gonna have a lot of 'fun' together." Jaden gulped and tried harder to struggle away from his grasp, but to no avail.

"No! You're not going to take that away from me!" Jaden blurted out in a panic, but froze, when he saw the sadistic gleam in Adrian's eyes.

"So you are innocent, aren't you? Well then, this makes it more fun…for me that is."

"N-No! Let me go!" Jaden's struggle became more frantic, but no matter how hard he tried, the brunette couldn't escape his grasp.

Jesse was in his room, just grabbing his overnight stuff and his cards, when he heard the commotion from the dorm's entrance hallway. Suddenly Ruby popped up on his shoulder, mewing and looking worried.

"What is it, Ruby?" he asked. But someone else answered for him.

"…Let me go! Please stop!" Jesse froze. That was Jaden's voice, he was sure of it. And it sounded like he was in trouble.

"Why should I?" Adrian pinned both of Jaden's wrists above his head and pinned his body to the wall. Jaden swallowed in fear. This wasn't going to be good for him.

"Stop! Let me go! Please!"

Adrian leaned in, smirking. "You know you can't win this game. You don't know where Andersen is, and everyone else is busy dueling. You're all mine. So just give it up, already. There's no point."

"N-no!" Jaden tried to get his wrists free, but they wouldn't budge. He whimpered as Adrian leaned in closer to him, inches away from his vulnerable lips and neck.

"HEY! Get your filthy hands off of my boyfriend, you fucking bastard!" the European shouted, standing on the stairs, and looking pissed.

"JESSE, help!" Jaden cried in panic, giving his boyfriend a pleaded look.

Adrian growled with annoyance. Shit, Andersen was here. But then he smirked, getting a sadistic idea. "You're a little late, Andersen." Jesse was about to run and pull Adrian off of his innocent boyfriend, when suddenly Adrian forced his lips onto Jaden's pure ones. Jesse froze, his body going into shock.

Jaden's eyes widened with shock and horror. And he tried pulling away, but Adrian's other hand kept a tight grip on his jaw, forcing him to stay in place as he continued kissing him. Mm, Yuki's lips are so soft, pure, and innocent. Just how I like them, Adrian thought to himself. He thought Jaden's lips tasted better when he knew that his boyfriend was watching him, stealing the Slifer's first kiss.

Chazz walked into the front door of the obelisk dorm and stared at the sight in front of him. Gecko had Jaden pinned against the wall, and was kissing him. He noticed Jesse was a few feet away, on the stairs, his body frozen to the ground; pale as a ghost, and with horror written all over his face. The black Slifer glared at Adrian.

So this is why Jaden seemed on the edge recently, and would flinch every time someone said Gecko's name. The Slifer was being sexually harassed by that jerk. Then why wouldn't he tell Jesse or anyone for that matter? Had Gecko been threatening him as well? Chazz cleared his head. There was no time to think. He had to get Jaden away from Adrian and fast.

Jaden whimpered, feeling Adrian's tongue starting to slide into his mouth, when all of a sudden, Adrian was knocked over by ha force that came out of nowhere. Jaden sunk to his knees, trembling from Adrian's actions.

Chazz growled angrily at Adrian, who was pinned underneath him. "You touch him again, Gecko, and I swear you'll regret it," he snapped, threateningly. Jaden trembled, still feeling the ghosts of touches where Adrian had forcefully held and kissed him.

Adrian smirked, not bothered at all by Chazz's threat. "Why don't you try me, Princeton? If I wanted, I could have both Jaden and Andersen," he snickered.

Jaden flinched at the comment, and Chazz growled even deeper. "You won't lay a finger on either of them, you bastard!"

"You can't do anything to me. My family's more powerful than your's will ever be," Adrian sneered.

"Is that a challenge, Gecko?" Chazz snapped, staring straight in his cold eyes with fury.

In the midst of their arguing threats, Jesse was over his shock (after witnessing Adrian stealing his boyfriend's first kiss), walked over to Jaden, and pulled the brunette in his embrace. He was a bit surprised that Gecko also wanted to use both him and Jaden. He swore to himself he wasn't going to let Adrian touch his angel again.

"Guys, please stop fighting," Jesse pleaded, as he held Jaden tightly in his embrace, while the Slifer sobbed quietly in his boyfriend's arms. Chazz reluctantly got off of Adrian, but he placed a good distance between the bastard and his friends.

"What do you suggest then, Andersen?" Adrian sneered, once he got up from the floor and dusted himself off. Chazz gave Jesse a curious look. Jaden cringed and shrunk deeper into Jesse's arms and looked up at him to his face contorted with anger towards Adrian.

Jesse thought about it. This plan could be risky. He was putting him and Jaden into unknown danger. But the European trusted Chazz not to let them down. Jesse took a deep breath. "Why don't you guys have a duel?" he suggested, after a long pause.

Jaden stared up at Jesse in surprise. "B-but Jess-!"

"I accept," Chazz said, before Jaden had time to protest.

"Hmm, this could get interesting," Adrian said with a sly smile. "I think I'll have fun tearing Princeton apart. What are the stakes?"

Chazz sneered ruefully. "I win, you leave Jaden and Jesse alone and go your merry way off the island."

"Hmm, that's very bold of you, Princeton, if you're confident enough that I'll lose. And if I win?" Adrian asks, giving the couple a sadistic gleam in his eyes.

"You can fuck me all you want, but leave Jaden alone," Jesse declared.

Adrian narrowed his eyes towards Jesse. "So I can't have Jaden either way, huh?"

"I'm just as innocent as Jaden is," Jesse said, quietly. Chazz's eyes widened in shock. Oh hell no, Jesse couldn't do that to Jaden! If Adrian's earlier actions were anything to go by, it would tear the brunette apart! What the bloody hell is that European thinking?

Jaden's eyes widened in horror after hearing Jesse's bargain; "Jess, no! You can't…" Jaden clung to Jesse like a lifeline. "Take it back, Jess…"

Adrian thought about it for a moment, as he watched the two pure duelists. Well, if he couldn't enjoy hurting Jaden physically, then he could still break him emotionally while using Andersen as a personal sex toy. And, wait a second; didn't Andersen just say he was a virgin as well? Well, this was certainly entertaining enough.

"You know, I think I'll enjoy this more, knowing that Andersen's a virgin as well. Once Princeton looses, you won't be able to back out of the deal," Adrian stated, a little too calmly.

Chazz gave Jesse a sharp look, before replying to Adrian: "And just what the hell gave you the idea that I was going to lose, huh?" Chazz said, narrowing his eyes towards Adrian.

"Jess, please don't…" Jaden pleaded, as he stared up into Jesse's emerald eyes hoping to make him go back on the offer.

Jesse softened his gaze towards Jaden, but shook his head, knowing what the brunette was silently asking him to do. "I'm sorry, Jaden. I just don't want him to touch you again. It's the only way to save your innocence."

Jaden tried to fight the tears that were slowly forming in his eyes. "B-but Jess, what about you? You promised your first was going to be me, remember? If Chazz loses this duel…"

Adrian was smiling in victory. He hadn't even touched Andersen yet, and already Jaden was close to his breaking point. It seems that the brunette was really in love with the European and wanted to protect Jesse against him. Chazz on the other hand, couldn't stand seeing his friend like this. If he wasn't angry at Gecko before, then he was certainly pissed at him now. People like Adrian shouldn't be allowed at Duel Academy. He smiled to himself, already forming a back-up plan, should he actually lose to the sadistic bastard. He planned on seeing Chancellor Sheppard to get Adrian kicked out for sexually harassing one of his most precious and prized students.

"You're on, Gecko. No backing out, whatsoever."

Jaden's eyes widened in a panic; "b-but Chazz!" Chazz gave Jaden a caring look.

"No buts Jaden. I'm gonna win this for sure."

"Than what are you waiting for, Princeton? I'm not going to wait until tomorrow night to fuck Andersen's virgin ass," Adrian snipped, impatiently.

Jesse paled. Was Adrian really desperate to get laid or was he truly a sadistic bastard? Chazz glared at Adrian.

"Hold your horses, Gecko. We're dueling outside."

Adrian shrugs. "Good, no spectators other than Andersen and Jaden. Works for me."

"Chazz, are you sure-?"

"Yes, dammit, I'm sure! Quit worrying alright? I'm not going to lose this duel, Jaden," Chazz said, with confidence. Jaden looked down to the ground and nodded, still worried what the outcome of the duel would be. "Especially with Jesse's virginity on the line," Chazz replied calmly and quietly.

Jesse flinched. He really wished they would stop making a big deal out of this. It was starting to make the European feel less secure about his bargain.

"Look, if it helps you any better, it's not like I'm dueling against you," Chazz said, trying to offer some comfort in his distressed friend. Jaden looked back up and over to Chazz.

"Just win for us, alright Chazz?" Chazz simply nodded, but with confidence in his motion.

"You got it."
