~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a chilly winter evening; Yugi had asked his friends over to hang out for a while since their winter break would be ending soon. Yami had Yugi in his arms as they lay on the couch together. Bakura's arms were wound tightly around Ryou's waist making sure his hikari wouldn't move, and the last couple, Seto and Jounouchi, were sitting in front of the Christmas tree that Yugi had insisted on keeping up till New Years. Jou flipped on the TV and the evening news appeared:
"Good evening, this is Kaiti Tong for CNNN, we have an interesting story tonight, it seems the creator and champion of the new hit game Dueling Dice Monsters, Duke Devlin (AN: gomen, can't remember his Japanese name ^-^;;;) was just robbed by what appears to be a crazed stalker." Just then a brunette ran across the background carrying what appeared to be a pile of laundry.
"Give me back my shirts!" A very angry Duke yelled, running after her.
Back in Yugi's living room, the six boys only groaned in aggravation.
"Is she out of rehab already?" Jou-kun moaned, burying his head in Seto's chest.
"It seems so" Yami replied in an aggravated tone.
"How long do you think it'll be before she stops stalking us?" Yugi inquired.
"Who knows, that crazy bitch will never quit." Bakura glared at the television.
"At least we got a heads-up from Duke before she shows up here again" Seto commented while patting his little Jou's head. "Speaking of, how come you two had to win that duel? It would have been great if Jou had been stuck as a puppy for a week, even he wasn't mine." Seto looked accusingly over to Yami and Yugi. Jou only gave off a low growl as Seto continued to pet him.
"Like you don' treat me like a dog enough! The mutt suit woulda killed me!"
"Reminds me of our first date, ne puppy?" Seto smiled cheekily at him. (AN: I know, ooc, lets just say Seto is happier now that he found his puppy) This comment got everyone's attention.
"What happened then?" Ryou asked curiously.
"Well…" Jou blushed.
"Mokuba? Do you really think I look good?" the CEO complained.
"YES! I've been through every J-Crew catalogue I could find! You look perfect!" Seto, still unsure, shifted uneasily. He loved Jou-kun with all his heart and prayed he would make a good impression.
He and Jou had agreed to meet at the pizza place and would maybe catch a movie afterwards. A whole pie had already been finished, and the conversation had remained at a minimum and whenever it had occurred, only revolved around Duel Monsters. Needless to say, both teens were extremely nervous. Finally Seto stood up and grabbed Jou by the arm, dragging him out. This was their night and he was determined to make it one that Jou would remember fondly.
"Seto, where ya draggin me to?"
"You'll see, just be patient and close your eyes." Seto had a strange glint in his own icy blue eyes so Jou didn't argue. Finally, they arrived and Seto gently shoved his puppy through the door. Jou opened his eyes to see collars, leashes, kittens, birds and of course, puppies.
"Uh… Seto?"
"We were out of kibble and I had to get you something to eat." The CEO winked at the outraged blonde. "Relax, pick any puppy you like."
"Really? You mean it?"
"Of course inu. Go on." And he pecked him on the cheek.
Jou must have spent over an hour looking at all the different puppies, trying to pick out the perfect one. While the blonde was examining, Seto crept over to a corner of the store, grabbed two items, and paid for them quickly before Jou noticed. In the meantime, Jou had found his puppy. A golden retriever with tousled fur and big brown eyes. When Seto came over and hugged Jou from behind, he double taked when he saw the dog, he really couldn't believe how much it looked like his Jou. The puppy was perfect.
At the register, after getting all of the supplies, Jou came up with a name.
"Seto, whadya think about callin 'im Ribi?"
"Ribi?" Set raised an eyebrow and Jou only grinned. (AN: Ribi = REBE = Red Eyes Blue Eyes, hehe ^-^ hope you all got that) "Ribi it is, puppy. But, you can only have him on one condition." And Kaiba pulled out his previously purchased item, a red, leather, collar, complete with a gold nametag reading 'Jounouchi, property of Seto Kaiba, 1-678-568-3568' (AN: 1-678-LOVE-JOU ^-^).
"Oh no, I am not wearin dat thing." Jou began backing away. Seto looked at him with pleading eyes.
"Please Jou, only for me, then you can take it off I promise."
"Aight, aight, but this is only cuz I love yas, and no one else is eva gonna know. Right?" Jou eyed the brunette suspiciously as Seto happily strapped the collar around his neck.
The whole gang was laughing.
"He really bought you a collar Jou-kun?" Yugi managed to say, clutching his sides.
Then, Jou pulled down the roll of his turtleneck to reveal a red, leather, collar, nametag and all. Seto grinned at him.
"Good boy." And he began scratching the blonde behind his ear.
"Haven' taken it off since. Wha can I say? I like bein his puppy…" Jou looked like he was in prefect bliss as the CEO continued to scratch his ears.
"But what was the other thing you bought, Seto?" Ryou asked.
"Oh, this?" Seto reached into his pocket and pulled out a matching red, leather leash. "I use it when he's bad." And he glanced at Jou who was sitting faithfully beside him. He began whining sadly when Seto stopped petting him. So the CEO pulled the blonde over to him and began scratching his ears and rubbing his tummy. Jou looked like he was about to faint from happiness. The others only laughed at how cute they looked together.
"So what about you two? What happened on your first date?" Yugi asked Ryou and Bakura. Ryou began to shift uneasily and Bakura merely glared at the wall.
"Well, you see…." Ryou began.
"Um… how did you like the Italian food yami?" Ryou asked his dark side timidly as they walked through the park dimly lit by a few lampposts.
"The food was fine hikari, but I didn't like the way that waiter was looking at you." With that he put his arm protectively around his hikari's waist.
"Well by the way you were glaring at him, I think he got the message that I was off limits." Ryou cuddled up closer to his yami. The tomb robber snickered, remembering the terrified look on the young man's face.
They continued to stroll through the park, Bakura making absolutely sure his hikari didn't escape from the hold he had on his waist. As they passed a bend in the path, a jogger came out of nowhere and knocked Ryou down, mumbling 'excuse me' as he passed. This, however, made no difference to Bakura, the tomb robber, furious, just stood there for a moment, analyzing the situation.
"Yami… don't…" Ryou pleaded. But it was too late, the dark one already had the insane, maniacal look that Ryou knew only too well. Bakura took off like a shot, jumped on the runner from behind, and began beating him into a bloody pulp, occasionally screaming things like:
"HOW DARE YOU HURT MY HIKARI!!! MY HIKARI???!!! DIE SCUM DIE!!! MY MAN-EATER BUG WILL EAT YOU ALIVE!!!! HAVE FUN IN THE SHADOW ROOM YOU FOOLISH MORTAL!!! DIE I SAY!!! DIE!!! BAWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! YOU SHALL BURN IN ETERNAL HELLFIRE FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE!!!!!" and other language, too horrific to repeat. After about five minutes of maiming, the jogger was able to crawl away for a second while Bakura was laughing insanely. While his attacker was distracted, the runner pulled out his cell phone and dialed the police, praying they would arrive before his untimely death. Unfortunately for Bakura and Ryou, the cops got there just as the tomb robber was dragging the runner towards the lake by his feet. Ryou was trying his hardest to calm his yami down, but to the police, it only seemed like encouragement. And that's how they ended up in jail, charged with assault. They would have gotten attempted murder, but they were both minors.
"Yami… I think we might have to start those anger management classes again…" Ryou sighed "and find a new psychologist… considering what you did to the last one…" Bakura gave off a low snicker.
Wrapping his arms around his hikari, the dark one pulled him close and buried his face into Ryou's soft hair.
"I don't care how long I have to stay in here. No one will ever hurt you as long as I'm around, you're mine, always and forever." Despite the fact that he had gotten them arrested, Ryou couldn't help sighing happily and cuddling as close as he could to his yami.
"Of course yami, I'm yours, and I always will be." The white haired teens quickly fell asleep and only the occasional "mine" could be heard from Bakura as he hugged his hikari. And so they spent the night of their first date cuddling together in the city jail. The next day they were promptly released when a giant bug began wreaking havoc on the police station for reasons still unknown.
By the end of the story, everyone in the room had moved considerably farther away from the white haired tomb robber. Yami had his arms protectively around Yugi who was curled up in his lap, and the tips of Jou's hair were visible from behind Seto's back. Ryou only smiled at them reassuringly.
"Aight, everyone's fessed up, now it's yur turn." Jou pointed to Yami and Yugi. The smaller boy began blushing as he recalled the best night of his life.
"Ok, we'll tell you, it all started…"
