The first official chapter of Tear Me Away! We get a peak into how Seto and Yugi got together. I hope you all enjoy it! We'll get to meet his future hero in the next chapter. Italics are flashbacks. I do not own YuGiOh, if I did, Kisara would've gotten reincarnated by now gdi.

Yugi felt like his eyelids were attached to weights; he could barely keep them open. It was understandable of course, he had barely slept the before. Seto kept him up all night trying to make up for losing his temper the way he did. That was one thing the young boy always saw coming. After Seto hit him, the hours following would consist of him apologizing then the two "making love".

They never truly made love though. It would start with that intention of course, but soon Seto's stamina would take over and it would become a rough, passionate session that left Yugi sore the following day. But last night, Seto took him four times, five if he counted when he had his way with him in the shower that morning.

"Yugi? Yugi!" a familiar voice called him, snapping him out of his thoughts. Blinking owlishly, Yugi looked up to see Jonouchi, his childhood friend. He smiled softly before noticing the worry in his friend's eyes.

"This is the fifth time this week you've dozed off in class. What's going on with you?" the blonde's voice was laced with worry. It made sense of course. Before Yugi started dating Seto, his main purpose was school. He lived on his own and he had hopes to go to a good college. But that all changed in two days...

[Flashback]

"What do you mean I can't stay at the game shop?!" Yugi couldn't believe what he was hearing. His grandfather had owned the Kame Game Shop for years and the two had lived in the apartment above it. Now that his grandfather had passed away, he was on his own and he was only seventeen.

"You're a minor, you can't stay on your own nor run a game shop." the tall man in the pressed suit replied, no ounce of remorse in his voice.

"So what?! I'm going to an orphanage?! Isn't the legal age thirteen?" Yugi felt like he was going to burst at any moment.

"The age of consent is thirteen. You are not a legal adult until you are twenty unless you are emancipated." The younger couldn't believe what he was hearing. He was going to be kicked out of his own home. This burden was carried with him into the next day.

"So you're going to be kicked out of your home? Wam bam, no thank you ma'am?" Jonouchi asked in complete disbelief prompting a simple nod from the smaller of the group.

"What are you going to do Yugi?" Honda asked as he stared at the other. While Honda wasn't a childhood friend like Jonouchi was, the brunette was still a good friend of Yugi's. His brown eyes were warm with concern for the other and it all made Yugi's heart sink; he hated when people worried about him.

"They say I have to pay the bank about fifty thousand US dollars if I want to keep my home..."

"Fifty thousand dollars?! You don't have that kind of money, Yug'!" the blonde screamed as he jumped out of his seat, not believing his ears.

"The only person who has that kind of money to spare is Otogi..." Honda mumbled quietly as he took a hold of Jonouchi's uniform jacket and forced him down into his seat. The group of boys remained silent as they all thought it over. Yugi had to get fifty thousand dollars by the following Monday or else he'd be homeless. Since he had heard how much money he needed, a small idea sat in the back of his head, one that his friends would never agree with.

"K-Kaiba has the money too..." he mumbled quietly as he stared down at his hands. He didn't have to look to know that Honda and Jonouchi were staring at him in disbelief.

"Kaiba?! That stuck up rich son of a bitch would never do anything to help you!" the blonde growled through his teeth, not believing his friend could possibly consider that.

"He's right, Yugi. Kaiba would burn down an orphanage if they had the gull to ask him for help."

"He'd set fire to an old folks home if they were in the way of him constructing another building!"

"He'd beat all the women in a domestic abuse shelter if they asked him for money to help expand it."

"He'd shoot a p-"

"Okay!" Yugi stood up and put his hands up in defense, desperate for his friends to stop giving him examples of how evil Kaiba was. He knew Kaiba wasn't the nicest guy, there were so many rumors going around school about how demented and cruel of a person he was. But Yugi always liked to see the best in people, despite what everyone said about them.

"You said yourself that the only person with that kind of money was Otogi and we all know that Otogi doesn't give money to anyone, no matter how close he is to that person. Kaiba is my only other option. So please, just support me in this. I'm going to ask him during lunch..." Yugi gave a firm nod and sat back in his seat, leaving no room for argument from his friends. He had already made up his mind.

[Time Skip]

Yugi stood at the front of the cafeteria, sweating bullets as he watched Kaiba. The tall male was sitting alone at his lunch table, typing away on his laptop. Occasionally, he would stop typing to take a bite of his sandwich before returning to typing. Yugi knew that if he interrupted the blue eyed CEO, he'd get a mouth full of insults and glares that would send him running for the hills. But he had no other choice, he couldn't be homeless.

When he made his way over to the table, he set his tray down onto the table hard enough to make a loud clank. He hoped that that would get Kaiba to look up from the laptop. When it didn't, he bit his lip and took a seat across from the brunette. He waited a few moments in tense silence as he started to unwrap his lunch, watching Kaiba out of the corner of the eye. When the tension became too much for Yugi to take, he pushed greetings aside and broke the silence.

"Kaiba! Because my grandfather died the bank is trying to take our home and the game shop and they're going to throw me out and I will have nowhere to go and I am so scared so I need your help I'm sorry to say this but I have no other choice so Kaiba I need fifty thousand US dollars and I need it by Monday so Kaiba could you please please please do this for me I will never bother you again if you do and if you do I will be so grateful so will you do it?" he said all in one breath as he watched the other, hoping he said everything he could. Save for a few pants coming from Yugi as he caught his breath, there was complete silence, Kaiba had even stopped typing.

"...Fifty thousand?" the brunette asked quietly. Yugi simply nodded and bit his lip, wondering what was going through the other's head. Was he going to do it? Was he going to save his home? The older of the two simply closed his laptop and took out a check from his briefcase. He took a pen and quickly wrote on it, all while Yugi's eyes were wide in awe. Kaiba handed him the check and he took it with shaky hands, his eyes almost bugging out as he saw the amount that was written on it.

"K-Kaiba... I needed fifty thousand... th-this is..."

"One hundred thousand, I know. Keep the other fifty for yourself." Kaiba interrupted him quietly and reopened his laptop, typing again and leaving Yugi to stare in disbelief. Why was he being so nice all of a sudden? What was the catch? There had to be a catch!

"Kaiba why are you doing this?"

"I don't know, people always say that I need to do more charity work. You're my newest charity case. Take it or leave it." Yugi decided not to ask anymore questions. He had more than enough money in his hands and he wasn't prepared to lose it.

"Thank you so much, Seto! I'll never forget this and I'll find a way to make it up to you!" Yugi stood up and took his food, running away to his friends at the other table. As he ran away, he didn't notice that Kaiba didn't correct him and tell him to call him Kaiba. He also didn't notice the small smile on his lips as he watched Yugi leave.

[End Flashback]

It was after that day that Yugi began spending more time with Seto, he saw how wrong everyone was about him. He was gentle with him and there were a lot less insults then he remembered. Sometimes Seto would show up at Yugi's home with gifts and would end up spending the night with him, other times Seto would pick Yugi up in his limo while he was walking home from school, and they'd end up spending the night together in his mansion. The two were inseparable and Yugi soon found himself falling in love.

His friends objected of course, countless times. Jonouchi swore that Kaiba was still the evil bastard that he always was, no matter what Yugi said about him. But the doe eyed boy wouldn't listen, Seto had changed and he knew it.

Now here he was, falling asleep in class because the man he had thought had changed was still the evil person everyone saw him as, only this time Yugi felt the evil more than saw it. But he couldn't leave Seto, he still loved him despite all the pain he was putting him through. Plus it was impossible for him to leave, the multimillionaire had ways to keep watch of Yugi even if he wasn't physically there. Seto would always be there with Yugi, no matter what.

"Jonouchi, I've just been staying up so late studying. I need to try and cut it out though, I don't mean to make you worry.." the younger offered his friend a small smile. He could see in the blonde's eyes that he didn't believe him, but he wasn't going to argue.

"Okay Yug... you need to get some sleep though..." Jonouchi replied quietly as he made his way to his seat behind him. Yugi was grateful that his friend didn't try to argue his lie, he was too tired for an argument. He rested his head on his desk and sighed softly against the cool surface, he just wanted to make it through his day so he could get some sleep. He felt his eyelids close and he decided to stop fighting it, letting his sleep take him over. He would finally have peace again.
