Short Circuit and Crash

Seto tilted his head, frowning, as he looked down at the blond fidgeting in front of him. "…You're the one that asked to speak to me, mutt. What the hell do you want?"

Joey winced a little, then looked up at him through his bangs bashfully. "Well, ya see… the things is… What happened is that… Um…"

"Spit it out, mutt." He didn't want to lose his temper. He'd been trying to be at least cordial with the geek squad. He would not lose his temper-!

The blond winced again, then hurriedly replied, "Okay, so, I kinda sorta maybe like ya a lot more than I originally planned."

Seto felt his brain short-circuit, crash, and die. While it was rebooting, he blinked. "…What?"

Joey fidgeted a few more seconds, then reached forward and grabbed his shoulders. The brunet could only continue to blink as he found his lips smashed against the puppy's. His newly rebooted brain short-circuited and crashed again.

The blond broke the kiss and looked up at him to see what sort of reaction he'd get. When he found a blank stare was his only reward, he sighed dejectedly and let go of the older boy's shoulders to shove his hands in his pockets. Then, he turned and trudged back into the classroom. How could he ever think that the billionaire would want him, the worthless mutt?

Beep… beep… beep… Ding dong dong ding!

Seto blinked a few more times as his mind began to sort out all of the previously closed windows of information, then frowned. The puppy had kissed him, then walked away like he was heartbroken. Why was that? Ah—he'd taken too long to reply to him, that's what. He probably thought he'd rejected him.

Striding back into the classroom quickly, he caught the other boy just as he was about to sit back down and grabbed his hair to yank him into a rough kiss. He was proud to say that his brain did not shut down this time.

Joey whimpered softly in confusion. Hadn't he just been rejected? Why would the brunet come and make fun of him like this? He hadn't thought that Seto would be that cruel…

Once finished thoroughly ravaging the blond's mouth, Seto leaned back and gazed at him sternly. "I'm picking you up at six o'clock for a date, puppy."

"But… What?" The puppy in question tilted his head, eyes muddied with confusion as he looked up at him. "Huh?"

"You crashed my brain," the CEO replied, tapping him lightly on the nose. "It takes a moment for it to reboot." And with that, he turned to walk to his own desk.

Joey blushed a little and brought a hand up to touch his lips, then frowned. "What the hell was he talkin' about?"

Téa scowled. "It figures that the guy always working on his computer would have a brain that functions like one."

"Huh?" The blond looked up at her in confusion. "What?"

"He liked your kiss, but you shocked him so badly that he couldn't respond for a while," Yugi explained for him. Joey had never been good at computers.

"…Oh." Joey tilted his head in thought, then smiled brightly. "I'll be right back."

"Why, what are you-?" Tristan began, then cut himself off as his friend swaggered toward the CEO. "…This should be interesting."

Seto blinked as he felt his chair sliding away from his desk, then turned his head angrily to snap at whoever dared. But, then he had a puppy in his lap, and he really didn't know what to do—Oh, God, the puppy was eating his face. When their lips parted with a smack, he could only stare as his mind began to reboot again.

Joey smiled; he decided he liked "crashing Kaiba's brain." It made him feel like he had the upper hand for once in his life—

Well, at least until the dragon roared and forced him to lean back on the desk as he practically raped his mouth.
