Chapter 3: I am not
Joey was quite confused. Was Kaiba making fun of him, or did he also want to erase that night and pretend it never happened? Joey hoped that he was sincere. However, he knew that nothing was that simple with Seto Kaiba. He finished his breakfast and walked towards the door, then frowned and turned at the CEO.
"Aren't you comin'?"
Again, Kaiba smirked, but Joey saw him this time.
"Why would a mutt like you care?"
The blonde shrugged.
"I'm just wondering."
"For your information, Wheeler, as a former international champion, I can bypass the preliminary round, unlike you."
His tone was rather snooty, and Joey rolled his eyes.
"Charming as ever, Kaiba."
The young CEO didn't reply and Joey left the suite without saying anything else. He met his friends in the hotel's lobby, and frowned when he noticed Yugi's presence.
"Yug', what are you doin' here? I thought you could bypass the first round, since rich boy isn't moving his ass off his couch, claiming to be so damn good that he doesn't need that round."
His friend smiled as they walked towards the door.
"I could, but I refused that right. The more duels, the funnier! Moreover, I don't think this procedure is fair."
"Yeah, only a snob like Kaiba would do it", Tristan said.
"Joey, are you hurt?" Tea asked.
"What-?"
"Here, you have... I don't know... it's red..."
When she touched her own neck to show him where he was "hurt", Joey's blood turned into ice. It was Kaiba's mark. That son of a bitch! Joey scratched his neck.
"Yeah, I saw it, I dunno what it is, I think I've been bitten by some weird insect last night... I must be allergic or something..."
Tristan, Yugi and Tea stepped outside, but when Joey put his hand on the door, he felt someone's hand on his shoulder. He turned and his eyes met Duke's gorgeous green eyes.
"What?"
"You can't fool me, dude."
Joey felt his heart beating faster than ever.
"Wh-what do you mean?"
Duke smirked.
"That's not an insect bite at all."
"Of course it is! What else could it be, uh?"
Duke raised an eyebrow.
"That's a love-bite, man, I'm not blind."
"Yeah, RIGHT! And who could've done this to me, smart boy?"
Duke gave him a cunning smile again.
"I don't know, you tell me."
"Just some girl I saw yesterday at the hotel's bar, right? Now mind your own business please."
"What? But, Joey, you don't even drink-"
Joey pushed the door without listening to him, and Duke blinked several times. What the hell's wrong with him? he wondered.
--------------
Seto sighed heavily and leaned his head on the back of his couch. What the hell have I done? Joey Wheeler was the last person on Earth he wanted to touch, wasn't he? But no matter how much he'd insulted him in the past... he felt attracted by him in a way that could not be explained. The taste of his skin, the way he reacted to Seto's touch... even the sound of his voice, the sound of this rough accent... everything about him seemed to be attractive.
Kaiba grimaced. His headache didn't help at all. Apparently, he'd exaggerated with the Rum and Coke last night. But no matter how much his head hurt, flashes of his night with Joey were coming back to him.
"This isn't right..."
Kaiba slightly smiled to himself. Who cared if it was right or not? It felt good. Damn good. It was the only thing that was important.
"Right" or not, Joey started to kiss him back and touch him back. At first, his kisses were timid, and his fingers were shaking a bit on Kaiba's skin. Kaiba smiled for himself.
"You never did it, am I right?" he whispered to his ear.
Joey nodded in silence.
Kaiba swallowed an aspirin.
The CEO put his hand under Joey's belt. His fingers were caressing the blonde's erection, and he sighed with pleasure, closing his eyes. Kaiba smirked.
"I can tell you want it as much as I do, no matter what you say..."
Kaiba dropped on Joey's bed. Both of their smells were still in the air.
Kaiba's hand was pulling the blonde's hair a bit. He moaned as Joey started to pleasure him with his mouth. It felt so good, even if Wheeler had no experience at all...
The CEO closed his blue eyes.
He was moving faster and faster, he could feel Joey's body shaking under him, and he finally groaned with pleasure, snapping his teeth into Joey's shoulder as he climaxed...
Seto turned on the bed, his nose catching Joey's scent on the white pillow.
Damn, Wheeler...
--------------
"Watch and learn! I sacrifice both of my monsters to summon my Red-Eyes Black Dragon! Then, I'll play Monster Reborn to bring back my Panther Warrior to the field..."
Joey smirked.
"Man, that's gonna hurt. Red-Eyes, destroy his Lord of Dragons! And now, to finish you off, I'll sacrifice my dragon, so my Panther Warrior can attack!"
The young boy's life points went down to zero. The crowd cheered for Joey as he shook his opponent's hand.
"Nice duel out there."
"Thanks. I guess I just wasn't strong enough for you. But I might be next time!"
Joey smiled. His opponent was about to leave, but he stopped and looked at Joey's neck.
"Oh, by the way. I know it's none of my business, but you should tell your girlfriend it's not good for your skin when she does that."
Fortunately, he didn't let Joey reply and he left.
Yeah right... like I care about my skin right now...
"That was awesome, Joey!"
"Thanks, Yugi."
"He looked like a nice guy", Tea noticed.
"Yeah, and a pretty good duelist too. I almost felt for some of his traps."
He did his best to ignore the way Duke was looking at him.
"Now, what's next today guys?"
----------------------
Few hours later, Joey went back to the hotel.
"I just need to pick up some money guys, I'll be right back."
"We'll wait for you in the lobby", Tea said with a smile.
Joey took the elevator and waited until he finally reached the top floor. This time, he had his key in his pocket and his plan was very well-defined: enter in the suite, head straight for his bedroom, take the money and leave quickly without speaking to Kaiba.
Without even looking at Kaiba, preferably.
As a matter of fact, he really wished Kaiba wasn't even in the suite.
When he stepped in, he heard no noise and he saw no one. He sighed with relief. Apparently, he was lucky. He walked towards his bedroom and... froze in the door frame.
Kaiba was lying on his bed. He was wearing only his black pants and was obviously sleeping.
He looks cute.
Joey shook his head.
What the hell am I thinking? He's not cute at all! Tea's cute. A puppy's cute. A kitten's cute. Kaiba is NOT!
He quickly took his wallet, but when he turned to leave the room, his arm hit a lamp. The lamp felt on the floor and broke, creating a noise that could've waken up a dead man.
"What..."
Kaiba opened his eyes and frowned.
"Wheeler, what are you doing in my bedroom?"
Joey blinked several times.
"Excuse me?! What are you doing in my bedroom?"
Kaiba looked around. He seemed pretty confused.
"Oh. I just wanted to-"
"Keep it for yourself, right? I don't wanna know what kinda gross idea you had!"
"Gross?!"
The CEO stood up and looked at him directly in the eyes.
"It didn't seem so gross yesterday, did it?! Actually, it seemed pretty fun..."
"I won't happen again and you better keep it for yourself! A-and it was just a mistake and I don't know why it happened but I am telling you-"
"It's called sexual attraction. Deal with it."
"I AM NOT GAY!"
"Right. You said it."
He took his face between his hands. His cobalt eyes were partly hidden behind his brown hair as he looked down at Joey.
"Now, say it again. And mean it."
Kaiba's body was barely touching the blonde's body, but it was enough to start the fire that was burning his skin the night before when Kaiba kissed him.
"I'm not..."
Kaiba's eyes were spellbinding and it felt like his lips were begging Joey to kiss them. He took a deep breath.
"I am not... you know... I mean I might..."
Was it an illusion or was Kaiba actually getting closer? He shook his head.
"No, I'm... absolutely not... it's not because yesterday we... that I am... into that stuff..."
He felt his heart beating faster when he noticed how close Kaiba was now. He smells so good...
"Listen, I am not... please kiss me..."
Those last three words had left his lips before he could actually stop them. Kaiba immediately pushed Joey against the wall as he kissed him. Joey closed his eyes. Why does it feel so good? Again, he felt Kaiba's mouth on his neck.
"Don't", he muttered. "People notice..."
"Great", Kaiba replied. "Then everyone can see that you belong to me..."
"I do not-"
Kaiba forced him to shut his mouth by fiercely kissing him again, as one of his hands started to untie Joey's white shirt.
"S-stop... they're all waiting for me downstairs..."
"Who cares?" he asked with the same look on his face than the night before.
Kaiba pushed him on the bed and Joey closed his eyes as he felt Kaiba's hands on his skin. Kaiba's finger stopped on his chest. He smirked when Joey opened his eyes.
"Your heart is beating pretty fast for someone who's not into that stuff..."
Joey blushed, but did not reply.
"I'll take your silence as a yes..."
The blonde closed his eyes again, and Kaiba kissed his lips again. He knew, even now as his tongue was playing with Kaiba's, that it was totally wrong to make the same mistake twice, that his friends were waiting and would ask tons of questions later, but it felt so good that he would not let Kaiba stop even if the ceiling fell on their heads...
End of the chapter: I almost called this chapter "Oops I did it again" but it sounded too cliché XD hope you liked it ;)
