~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Well, here we are..." Emma said, putting her car into park. The four guys climbed out, checking out their surroundings. Unable to resist anymore, the girl whipped out a camera, and snapped a few pics of them.
Yami, Kaiba and Joey looked at her oddly, while Yugi merely smiled. "Thank you for the ride..." he told her, politely.
"Awww, so sweet... no problem," Emma assured him.
Yugi nodded, then looked down at his stomach, which growled, slightly. He furrowed his brow, "hmmmm, been a while since we ate..." he rested his hand on his hungry belly, looking around for a place with food.
Too cute! Emma thought, "here! Take my money!" she offered, eagerly shoving her entire purse into Yugi's hands. Yugi blinked, then smiled.
"No, I can't... you've done enough for us..." he said, with a small nod.
"You're sure..? Maybe I can buy you dinner, maybe?"
Yugi blinked, cutely, "well..." it was an offer. Emma felt herself melt. He was too adorable for words.
"Alright, that's enough, Yugi..." Kaiba said, simply, turning Yugi and his eyes away from Emma. Then he glanced at her, "thank you... we can take it from here..." He paused, thoughtfully. He had to do something as thanks. So he leaned in, gently kissing her cheek. "Much appreciated..." he murmured, then he started to stride away.
Emma blushed. Joey and Yami shrugged. Seemed like a decent way to say thanks. Joey and Yami both kissed either side of her cheeks, then started to walk after Kaiba. Yugi pecked her lightly on the lips, innocently, then followed after the others.
Emma stood there, more blood rushing to her cheeks, biting her lip. It was all too much. She fainted, right then and there.
***
"So what now?" Yami asked, as he folded his arms.
Kaiba sat down on a picnic table, "we wait for the others..." he said, shortly. Yugi reddened slightly, as his stomach growled somemore.
"I'm hungry..." he said, sheepishly. And went back to looking around. Joey's stomach growled, too.
"Hey, so am I... let's find a place to eat, huh?"
Kaiba frowned, slightly, "we shouldn't eat without the others..."
Joey watched the CEO dubiously, "since when did you care about others...?" he asked, sarcastically. Kaiba glared at him.
"Just because I'm rich, doesn't mean I'm selfish..."
"Very profound..." Yami said, with a roll of his eyes. Then he noticed a bar&grill. "Maybe, we can go there..."
Kaiba glanced over, then rolled his eyes, "Yugi won't be allowed in there..."
"Why not?" Yami and Joey asked, confused.
"He looks too young... maybe you haven't the noticed the BAR part of the bar & grill... bar meaning alcohol..." Kaiba explained, as he fiddled with his locket(the one with a picture of Mokuba). A habit he was trying to break.
Joey grinned, "who can say no to Yuge!?" he challenged. Then he grabbed Yugi, and sat him on Kaiba's lap. "Turn on the charm, Yuge."
Yami frowned slightly, at Kaiba. He dared to touch his aibou? Kaiba noticed Yami, an anime sweatdrop formed on the side of his head. He shrugged, helplessly. Yugi and Joey never noticed either of them.
"What charm?" Yugi asked, confused. Joey grinned, about to take on the task of teaching Yugi to harness his 'power'. He plucked up Yugi again, and went to a different picnic table. Then Joey began his lessons.
After about ten minutes, they returned, and Yugi was again sat in Kaiba's lap, like an adorable chibi. "See what I taught ya, Yuge..."
Yugi nodded, and waited, patiently for Kaiba to look at him.
Slowly, Kaiba looked down at Yugi. A lump formed in his throat. Yugi blinked, then his violet eyes were large, innocent, and shining hopefully.
"Please, can we go eat..? I'm really hungry... please?" he pleaded, meekly.
Kaiba bit his lip. His resistance shooting down, instantly. Ten times stronger, now that Yugi was doing it willingly. But Kaiba was a very stubborn person, as most people know.
"Nnnnnnnnn... Nnnnnnnnn..." Kaiba took a breath, "Nnnnn-Nnoooooo! No, Yugi!" he sighed in immense relief, that he managed to blurt it out. He anime sweatdropped, looking down at Yugi, his lower lip stuck out in an adorable pout.
"Please, Kaiba..."
Yami watched Kaiba squirm. He smirked, folding his arms, glad not to be in his shoes.
"No... I said no... and I mean no... we have to wait for the others..." Kaiba said, trying to sound stern.
***
Four of them stood in pairs, Yugi and Yami, and Kaiba and Joey. Waiting to get in the restaurant. Kaiba sighed, then glared at Joey.
"I hate you..."
Joey smirked, "you don't mean that..."
"That kid can't come in here..." the man at the door, gesturing at Yugi.
"Told you..." Kaiba told Yami, with a scowl. The Pharoah narrowed his eyes, and held up his hand, aiming at the MATD(man at the door).
"MIND CR...!"
"No!" Joey grabbed his wrist, and pushed it back down. "Yuge can handle it... go Yuge..." Joey encouraged him. Yugi shrugged, then walked up to the MATD.
"Why can't I go in?" he asked, he blinked, curiously.
"Be-because you can't..." he said, already wavering.
"Why? Please, can I go in... I'm hungry, I haven't eaten since this morning..." Yugi said, his eyes shining, again. How he did this was beyond anyone's comprehension. The shiny eyes had it.
***
"Whatever you do, Yuge... don't use those on me, thanks..." Joey said, cheerfully, as they sat in their booth.
Yugi laughed, "yes, Joey..."
"First things first..." Kaiba said, with a frown, as he slid in the booth, next to Joey. Fortunately blocking him in. Yugi blocked Yami in, as he took a seat next to him.
"Anything to drink, boys?" a waitress asked, as she approached their table.
"No alcohol... I really don't want to deal with any of you, while drunk..." Kaiba started to say...
"One pitcher of beer..." Joey said, cheerfully.
"JOEY!" Kaiba and Yugi protested.
"Beer?" Yami raised an eyebrow, confused.
"What?" Joey asked, innocently. "I promised Yami I'd show him beer, didn't I Yami?" Yami started to nod.
"Yes..."
"And for the little one?" the waitress asked, with a shrug.
"Just an iced tea, thanks..." Yugi said, with a shake of his head.
"Same here... I'll have an iced tea," Kaiba said, with a frown.
"Alright... back in a minute..."
Kaiba waited for her to get out sight. Then he turned, and grabbed Joey roughly by his jacket. "IDIOT! IT WAS BAD ENOUGH WE ALL GOT ON A SUGAR HIGH! WHAT MAKES YOU THINK ALCOHOL'S GONNA BE ANY DIFFERENT?!" he snapped.
Joey shrugged, "Yami wanted to try it.... right Yami?"
Yami blinked. Alcohol? Yugi looked at his darker side, "why would you?" Yami shrugged.
"I've tried a lot of new things these past few months aibou... why not try this beer?" Yami asked.
Yugi frowned slightly. "If you started staggering, and falling around all over the place, Yami... I swear, I'll never speak to you again..." he said, looking very serious. Then he folded his arms, and stared hard at the table.
"Aibou..."
Yugi looked away. Yami sighed, the last thing he wanted was to have Yugi angry at him.
"Aibou, I promise to quit when you tell me to... fair enough...?"
Yugi glanced at him. It did sound fair. And it was Yami's decision if he wanted tor try it or not. Yugi sighed, then bit his lip, and started to nod, slowly.
Then their drinks were brought to their table.
***
"So I'm thinkin... that if car's COULD fly, roads wouldn't be needed! And widout roads, we can't have concrete! And widout concrete... we won't have workers on the road, which means less people gettin runned over..." Joey said, then he took another swing.
Kaiba rolled his eyes, and continued eating his burger.
"Or wait... people'd be outta jobs..." Joey said, his eyes wide.
Yugi watched Joey as if he were crazy. Yami wasn't as bad, thankfully. He was quiet, and would softly laugh at Joey. Or nod in solemn agreement.
"Yummy... have somemore, man... I'm gettin more drunk that you..." Joey said, pouring more into Yami's mug. "Wait... I meant than... not you... wait... that..." Joey nodded, slowly. Yami glared at Joey, as hard as he could. Not very effective, since powers both rose and fell while intoxicated.
"You said my name wrong... now, you must suffer the consequences..." he held up his hand, "MIND CRUSH!"
Kaiba, and Yugi's eyes widened. While Joey froze.
"Yami!" Yugi cried. Yami burst out laughing, and pointed at Joey.
"Shoulda seen yer face!" he howled out. Joey snapped out of it, and grinned.
"Dork..."
Yami laughed harder.
Kaiba and Yugi sighed in relief.
***
"Ya know, Kaiba! Yer a self-centered, uncaring, insenstive jerk!" Joey said, leaning heavily on the CEO. Kaiba ignored him, as he helped the blonde out the door. "But then, maybe that's why I love ya!"
Kaiba's eyes widened, as he watched Joey for a second. Then he frowned, "you're drunk, Joey..." he said, shortly.
"Thank I am!"
"What?"
Joey looked thoughtful, or as thoughtful as he could, while in that state. "Think I meant 'that I am'..." he nodded. "Yeah, that's what I mean... meant... whatever."
Kaiba rolled his eyes.
"Kaiba... I love ya, man!" Without warning, Joey flung his arms around Kaiba, in drunken affection. Kaiba let his head drop back, looking skyward.
"Why do you hate me...?" he asked the stars.
"Never said I hated ya..."
"Never mind..." Kaiba muttered, then he looked up, as they approached their original picnic table. "Yugi, how're you doing?"
Yugi shrugged, as he was being held tightly by Yami. "Fairly well... he keeps saying 'Ana bahebek', and I have no idea what it means... but other than that..." Yugi said with a shrug.
"Yugi... perhaps you'd like a translation..." Yami suggested, gazing into the violet eyes he fell in love with.
Yugi blinked, "okay... sure..."
"I love you..."
Yugi blinked, again. Then he turned to Kaiba, while he pointed at Yami, "is this normal...?"
"Joey, get up!" Kaiba was saying, impatiently, as he tried to pull Joey, who was laying in the grass, back to his feet. Then he sighed, and threw up his hands, in exasperation. "Fine, stay there!" He glanced at Yugi, "is what normal?"
Yami nuzzled Yugi, affectionately.
"Oh that... yeah... don't worry about it..." Kaiba said, with a shrug. Then he blinked, looking down at Joey, latched onto his legs.
"Joey!"
Joey climbed up, and held either side of Kaiba's face. "Kaiba... you think everythin I'm doin is because I'm a bit drunk, right?"
Kaiba rolled his eyes, "a bit...?" he scoffed, looking surprisingly deadpan.
"Well yeah..." Joey nodded, then he pulled the taller teenager down, and kissed him on the mouth! And in a rather sloppy way, no less. Hey, he was drunk. Nothing's perfect while drunk.
Yugi stared at them, wide-eyed. He grinned, and whipped out a disposable camera that Tea insisted he carried.
~~~
Tea grinned, handing the camera to Yugi, then she winked. "Never know what surprises will happen, Yugi... gotta be ready for 'em, right?"
~~~
Winding the camera, Yugi snapped a few pictures. He laughed, quietly, and placed the camera safely back in his pocket. Then an anime sweatdrop formed, once he saw Yami was watching them kiss, looking intrigued.
"Great idea, Joey! Actions speak louder than words!"
Yami then started kissing Yugi, right then and there. Okay, so some thing's could be perfect. Yami's lips fit Yugi's perfectly.
Yugi's eyes widened, not believing what was happening, he started to blush. Kaiba couldn't believe it either, but he most certainly didn't blush. Both Yugi and Kaiba never returned the kiss. But they never denied it either.
After a few minutes, Joey fell back, Kaiba hastily caught him. He frowned slightly, seeing that the blonde passed out. He rolled his eyes, "drunks..." he grumbled. He pressed his lips together, they tingled a bit. Yes, secretly he enjoyed Joey's kiss, but he wouldn't be Seto Kaiba if he admitted it.
Yami passed out, as well. Yugi was staring at his still form, his eyes wide, his cheeks flushed, and his lips tingling just as much as Kaiba's. Kaiba carried Joey over, and lied him beside Yami.
Kaiba glanced at Yugi. Yugi glanced at Kaiba.
"So... how was...?" they both started to ask. Then they both shrugged. "Really?" they both asked. Then they nodded.
"Kaiba..." Yugi said, slowly.
"Yugi..." Kaiba said, at the same time.
"I liked it..." they both admitted. There, they felt better.
Well, Kaiba did, anyways. Yugi always had feelings for Yami, but Kaiba never had feelings for anyone. Well, except Mokuba... but those aren't the kind of feelings we're talking here. So, getting kissed was a shocker for him. Even moreso, that he enjoyed it.
"Tell Joey, and I'll be forced to hurt you..." Kaiba said, softly. No real threat was heard in his tone. But Yugi agreed. The CEO was embarassed, and Yugi pitied him, so...
"Okay... I won't tell him..."
Kaiba watched him for a second, then smiled. A real genuine smile. "Thank you..."

"Joey, get up!" Kaiba was saying, impatiently, as he tried to pull Joey, who was laying in the grass, back to his feet. Then he sighed, and threw up his hands, in exasperation. "Fine, stay there!" He glanced at Yugi, "is what normal?"
Yami nuzzled Yugi, affectionately.
"Oh that... yeah... don't worry about it..." Kaiba said, with a shrug. Then he blinked, looking down at Joey, latched onto his legs.
"Joey!"
Joey climbed up, and held either side of Kaiba's face. "Kaiba... you think everythin I'm doin is because I'm a bit drunk, right?"
Kaiba rolled his eyes, "a bit...?" he scoffed, looking surprisingly deadpan.
"Well yeah..." Joey nodded, then he pulled the taller teenager down, and kissed him on the mouth! And in a rather sloppy way, no less. Hey, he was drunk. Nothing's perfect while drunk.
Yugi stared at them, wide-eyed. He grinned, and whipped out a disposable camera that Tea insisted he carried.
~~~
Tea grinned, handing the camera to Yugi, then she winked. "Never know what surprises will happen, Yugi... gotta be ready for 'em, right?"
~~~
Winding the camera, Yugi snapped a few pictures. He laughed, quietly, and placed the camera safely back in his pocket. Then an anime sweatdrop formed, once he saw Yami was watching them kiss, looking intrigued.
"Great idea, Joey! Actions speak louder than words!"
Yami then started kissing Yugi, right then and there. Okay, so some thing's could be perfect. Yami's lips fit Yugi's perfectly.
Yugi's eyes widened, not believing what was happening, he started to blush. Kaiba couldn't believe it either, but he most certainly didn't blush. Both Yugi and Kaiba never returned the kiss. But they never denied it either.
After a few minutes, Joey fell back, Kaiba hastily caught him. He frowned slightly, seeing that the blonde passed out. He rolled his eyes, "drunks..." he grumbled. He pressed his lips together, they tingled a bit. Yes, secretly he enjoyed Joey's kiss, but he wouldn't be Seto Kaiba if he admitted it.
Yami passed out, as well. Yugi was staring at his still form, his eyes wide, his cheeks flushed, and his lips tingling just as much as Kaiba's. Kaiba carried Joey over, and lied him beside Yami.
Kaiba glanced at Yugi. Yugi glanced at Kaiba.
"So... how was...?" they both started to ask. Then they both shrugged. "Really?" they both asked. Then they nodded.
"Kaiba..." Yugi said, slowly.
"Yugi..." Kaiba said, at the same time.
"I liked it..." they both admitted. There, they felt better.
Well, Kaiba did, anyways. Yugi always had feelings for Yami, but Kaiba never had feelings for anyone. Well, except Mokuba... but those aren't the kind of feelings we're talking here. So, getting kissed was a shocker for him. Even moreso, that he enjoyed it.
"Tell Joey, and I'll be forced to hurt you..." Kaiba said, softly. No real threat was heard in his tone. But Yugi agreed. The CEO was embarassed, and Yugi pitied him, so...
"Okay... I won't tell him..."
Kaiba watched him for a second, then smiled. A real genuine smile. "Thank you..."
