So I did that and reposted the changes in it lol
Xxxxxxx
A shiver cascaded down his spine. His eye twitched in irritation. Icy blue eyes scanned the area. He could find nothing out of the ordinary. Which could only mean one thing; his Puppy-Sense was tingling…
Seto was in the back of a car with his laptop open and on his lap. His fingers had ceased all movement the moment he felt the cold, ghosting sensation down his back. He could feel cold sweat forming on his brow. The Sense was getting worse… something had to be done but what? The brunette was nowhere near his puppy. With lightly shaking hands he took out his cell phone and dialed Jounouchi's cell number.
Xxxxxxx
Honda's heart was pounding in his chest as he lost himself in big honey brown orbs. He found himself leaning in closer, closer… If only those soft lips weren't quite so far away! Each centimeter felt like a mile. Oh! But look! Jou's eyes are starting to close!Now's my chance!
Katsuya wasn't sure why he was suddenly closing his eyes and he tried to keep himself from leaning in closer. Hiroto is my friend! He's only just admitted to being curious! This is dangerous… What'll happen to us if he hates it? What will happen if he likes it? What if I like it? Wait… Wasn't I into Kaiba? Does it matter? This is just a test right? A test for Hiro… when did I start calling by his first name? or Hiro for that matter?
Jou's brow furrowed slightly as his thoughts collided with one another. A kissless eighteen year streak was about to come to a crashing and beautiful end but was it what he wanted? With who he wanted? Jounouchi couldn't deny that it was something he wanted. Oh, how he wanted it… He needed the sweet sensation of love upon his lips. His thoughts once again trailed back to the CEO.
How close he had been to feeling the same sensation just the other day with him. Those gorgeous blue eyes, no longer icy and cold. Feeling Seto's breath on his cheeks. The softness of his hands when he helped him up and the playful but slightly rough way he teased him by pushing him down the bed. Even his voice had become playful and teasing, betraying his normally sharp and rigid tongue.
Jounouchi felt something against his lips. He instinctively leaned in, still daydreaming about Kaiba. Honda leaned in as well, deepening the kiss ever so slightly. Jou gave small whimper and pulled back after a moment. He slowly opened his eyes but he was met with brown orbs rather than azure. His own honey gold irises widened in realization and he nearly flung himself to the other end of the couch.
"I-I'm sorry, I shouldn't have…" The blond apologized and covered his mouth with his hands. He was basically panting and Honda briefly wondered if he was having a panic attack. The brunette looked away and shook his head.
"No, I should be the one apologizing I was the one that…" Hiroto sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "Look… earlier when I said… that I had been thinking about a guy a lot?" he paused and looked to Jou who still looked panicked. "I was talking about you…" Honda confessed and looked down. His face was red and he could hear the blood pulsing through his ears.
"I've been thinking about you since we watched that movie… when I realized at the end that our characters kissed." He chuckled lightly as he continued. "And I just—I mean you were so—" He couldn't seem to finished his sentences anymore.
"Look." He said finally with a heavy sigh. "I don't want anything to change between us… well I kind of do but that's not what's important! You're my best friend. If there were any guy that I'd like like that of course it would be you." Honda was starting to ramble and Jou knew he needed to put an end to this before it got out of hand. If only he could find his voice.
"Hiro, I…" Katsuya started and blushed when he realized he had used not only his first name! but the nickname he had made for him even! "I need to sort out my feelings first." He said with a small nod to himself.
Honda cleared his throat nervously and nodded in agreement. He needed to figure out his own feelings as well before they took this any farther. Did he just call me Hiro? A bright blush smacked itself back on to the teen's cheeks.
"Y-yeah I think that would be best right now." The brunette licked his lips. "Though… can I ask?" He paused and looked into Jou's light brown eyes. "Hiro?" He questioned. "Red-hair-guy called me that earlier too." He tried to explain why he was curious about the nickname.
"I guess I may have called you that few times when talking to Ryuren…" Jou hid his face bashfully. "I just think… Hiro… is cute…. Ya know?" The blond continued to hide behind his hands.
"Oh, well, in that case…" Honda smirked a bit. "Can I call you Katsuya?"
Jou blushed more but then gave a soft smile and nodded. He got up saying that he was going to go take a shower. He emptied his pockets onto the couch and then headed towards the bathroom. Honda turned on the tv and flipped through the channels until he found the sports channel.
He jumped when the phone that…. Katsuya… had left started ringing. Hiroto looked up as if he expected the blond to come barreling back into the room and snatch up his phone. But he realized this wouldn't happen when he heard the water running. Shrugging to himself Honda picked up the cellular device. I guess I should answer it in case its work…
"Hello?" The brunette pressed the phone to his ear. Silence… and then!
"Where's the Mutt." The CEO's voice growled through the receiver.
"Kaiba?" Honda moved the phone away from his face to give it a perplexed look.
"Yes. Why are you answering the Mutt's phone?" Seto was tired after a long, fantasy and jealousy driven day at the office. The last person he wanted to talk to was the person making him jealous, knowing that he was with the man he was fantasizing about!
"Why are you calling it? How did you even get this number?" Hiroto would be shocked if the blond had willingly given his cell number to his archrival.
"That's not important." Honda rolled his eyes. "Where is he?" Seto was losing his patience.
"Katsuya? He's taking a shower." He said as he started to go through some of the video games said blonde had. "You act like he kidnapped Mokuba or something…" There was a pause. "Mokuba is ok right?"
"Yes, he's fine…" Seto's palm found its way to his forehead and pressed against it in an attempt to somehow relieve some of the pressure that had found its way there.
"Then why the hell are you calling Katsuya?" Honda had just realized he had been calling him by that name. He had the blond's permission but it was still a bit embarrassing.
"We have a dance routine to practice." Kaiba spat, silently hoping that it would sting in the other brunette's ear.
"Oh, well why didn't you say so?" Said brunette had forgotten that the elder Kaiba was in the play as well. "I'll let him know you called. Did you need me to tell him anything else?"
"Tell the Mutt to come to my place Sunday at noon." Seto hung up.
Honda stared at the phone when he heard it click from the other end. He scowled at it then shook his head and went back to looking through the games. Choosing one, he popped it into the gaming system and sat back on the couch with a controller.
Xxxxx
Kaiba growled and nearly crushed his phone in his hand. The puppy was not only naked and in the shower with that bastard there but! that same bastard had started calling his puppy Katsuya? When did that happen? Why did that happen? Just this morning they were calling each other 'Jou' and 'Honda' so what had changed?
Seto could only think of one thing. Honda had an epiphany (and didn't die of a stroke in the process) about his adorable little puppy and the bastard had made a move. Damn… I should have seen this coming… and now the oaf is staying overnight and who knows what that bastard will convince my Puppy to do …
He walked in the front door of his glorious mansion and quickly slammed the door shut. Mokuba popped his head out of his room and ran to greet the other Kaiba.
"Big Brother?" He called out to him when he saw that Seto was not in the best of moods. "What happened? Did your secretary come on to you again?" Mokuba shrank back at the force of the glare he received from his brother.
"No…" Seto sighed and made his way to the kitchen. He sat down at the table and laid his head down on it. "The Oaf made his move…" He told his younger quietly.
"What? When?" Mokuba got his brother something to drink in an attempt to comfort him.
"Today… apparently it was well received…" He accepted the drink, taking a sip.
"How do you know?" Mokuba raised an eyebrow knowing the other had been at work since he had gotten out of school.
"The oaf called him Katsuya over the phone…" The brunette answered mournfully. "I don't know what happened but something obviously did…"
"So what are you going to do about it?" Mokuba asked while he took out some left-over food from the fridge. He set it on the table and went back to grab some plates and utensils.
"He's coming over Sunday at Noon to practice the dance. I'll have to figure out a way to wrench him from the sinister clutches of that diabolical bastard by then…" Seto opened the to-go boxes and looked inside them. Mokuba chuckled at his brother's terminology.
"The song for the dance is pretty lovey-dovey. If you actually sing your parts instead of mouthing them and ya know… smile a bit? I doubt even a block head like Jou could resist you."
Seto wondered when his little brother had become a romance counselor. What he said did make sense… Though smiling for the puppy after tonight may be a bit more difficult than it would have been a week ago. The brunette ate his food while he put his plan together.
Xxxxxx
Jounouchi stepped out of his shower and toweled off his hair. He looked at his reflection in the mirror and gave himself a goofy smile. Just knowing someone had feelings for him like that was enough to make him feel over the moon, whether it was Honda or not. He grimaced at that thought though.
"What do I do…" he asked the blond in the mirror. My first kiss went to my best friend while I was dreaming about my archrival? He chuckled and placed his hands on either side of the sink, staring down at the drain.
"I am vexed, terribly vexed…" This made him laugh a bit. He pushed himself back up and continued to dry himself off before getting dressed. I wish that kiss hadn't felt so good… that would make all this a lot easier… he told himself as he made his way back out to the living room. He saw Honda playing a video game and sat down next to him.
"Woah, 5 O'clock Hiro!" Jou pointed at the screen. A small group of enemies had been sneaking up on Honda.
"Thanks." He turned his player around to mount a counter attack. "Oh, by the way, Kaiba called your cell." He said, a bit distracted by the game. "He said to go to his place Sunday at Noon to practice some dance number?" He relayed the message and glanced over to see a blush creep onto the other boy's face.
"Oh. Um ok." Jou blinked down at his phone. "Was that all?" He asked as he picked the device up.
"Yeah though he was pretty adamant about talking to you… Probably had some insult lined up or something…" Hiroto shrugged but noticed Jounouchi's blush darken.
"You ok Katsuya?" He asked with a worried tone. "You don't have to go there just because Mr. High-and-Mighty tells you to. Did something happen?" He asked when Jou flinched.
"N-no! Nothing happened… I'm just nervous about the dance is all!" He quickly covered his face with a reassuring smile.
"Hmmm." Honda watched him for a moment before deciding that was all there was to it and turned back to his game. "I think I'm gonna call it a night after this round." He yawned. It was only eight o'clock but he was emotionally drained and needed some time to recharge.
"Yeah me too. I'll take the couch you can use my bed." He told the brunette while he moved and fluffed a few pillows.
"No, I can't do that to you." Hiroto protested but was stopped short.
"The couch smells like cigarette smoke but I'm pretty much used to it. You should sleep on the bed so you get a decent nights rest." Jou shot him a look that made the other back down.
"Alright if you insist…" He said quietly and turned off the game. He put the controller away and rummaged through his duffle bag to find his pajamas. He went to bathroom to change and when he came back out Jou was asleep on the couch.
A thin sheet was draped over him and his blonde hair splayed over the pillows. Hiroto reached out and ran his fingers through the teen's hair. A soft smile graced his features and he found himself leaning down and kissing the sleeping one's cheek. Kissing him was just so irresistible now he wondered how he had ever gone a day without doing it before!
Honda sighed gently and tucked Sleeping Beauty in a bit to make sure the sheet didn't fall of him in the middle of the night. He turned out the lights and laid down on Jou's bed. It smells like Katsuya… He breathed in the scent of the other teen and nuzzled into his pillow before drifting off to sleep.
Xxxxxx
It was about 2 am when Katsuya woke up. The smoke smell had somehow become over powering even though it was no more or no less powerful than when he had fallen asleep. He wiped the drool of his chin and sleepily stumbled to his bed. He barely registered the body sprawled on it and vaguely remembered that Hiroto was sleeping there. He clumsily crawled over him and laid down, half on top of the brunette. He moaned sleepily and cuddled with the warm body under/next to him.
Xxxxxx
Yugi let out an exasperated sigh as he walked down the street. Jou hadn't answered his phone all morning and knowing him, he was still asleep. Yugi had anticipated as much seeing as Honda had stayed over the night before.
"They probably stayed up all night playing children's card games… like go-fish and poker…" The short one shook his head and picked up his pace. It wasn't long before he reached his friend's flat.
He knocked on the door but received no answer. His hand reached out to the knob and twisted when it made contact. Apparently neither male had remembered to lock the door last night. Rolling his eyes he walked in and flicked on the light.
Violet eyes widened as his entire face turned as red as a lobster. He fell to the floor with a not so quiet thump and a few- terrified? whimpers. Terrified was what they sounded like anyway, in actuality they were sounds of breath taking shock. If someone had walked in on Yugi at that moment they would have thought he had witnessed a murder…
Fortunately the little one had only walked in Honda and Jou in bed together, their bodies entwined and their clothes and hair rumpled and disheveled. The sheet had managed to get in between, underneath and around them, hardly concealing their morning wood. Jounouchi's head rested on the other's chest and Honda's hand was splayed over the blond's shoulder, neck and part of his cheek and jaw.
"Mmmmmm…..?" A groggy Katsuya lifted his head to see Yugi on the floor. "Yugi?" He questioned still half asleep. The body underneath him shifted as Honda woke up to Jou's voice.
"Katsuya… wha-?" Hiroto groaned and turned his head towards the young duelist on the floor.
Cognitive abilities returned to the two teens entwined on the bed and they were suddenly very aware of a throbbing in their loins, and the closeness of their bodies. Both men launched themselves away from one another with scarlet faces. Hiroto fell to the floor while Katsuya stood atop his bed, holding the sheet over his chest even though he was fully clothed with a white tank and jersey shorts.
The startled pair then remembered the third male in the room and their heads turned slowly to see the purple eyed boy laughing with a hand over his mouth in an attempt to stifle it. This failed miserably and ended up rolling around the dusty floor. His cheeks were still red from embarrassment but the reactions of those two were priceless. It was like someone had placed them like that without waking them the night before just to make their morning awkward.
"C'mon Hiro…" Jou dropped the sheet with a heavy sigh and went to his dresser to get some clean clothes. My face feels like its on fire… How am I going to get through today like this?
"Let's get ready while short stuff catches his breath." The blond thought about swearing Yugi to secrecy but he knew Anzu would still get it out of Yugi eventually…
"Right." Honda got up and went to his duffle bag to get his clothes. Jounouchi went to the bathroom while Hiroto changed in the living room, ignoring Yugi.
A/N: sooooooo Honda and Jou kissing and even sleeping together! whats Kaiba-boy gonna think of this? we'll have to wait and see, my darlings~ until next time~
