Chapter Three: Everybody hurts...

            I cannot believe this.

            I truly lost him, and over what? Sex. I'm so angry that we made this deal two years ago. Perhaps if the deal never existed, we would have fallen in love the natural way, instead of forcing ourselves to fall in love during our fucking. I'm so pissed. I'm sitting here in school in the lunch room, glaring at the figure of my lover on the other side of the room. He was sitting alone, as usual and ignored my attempts of eye contact. My attempts ceased once a figure slowly slid into the seat beside me. I didn't have to look to know who it was.

            "Hiya Seral."

            "Hi Joey," My voice was no where near as cheerful as his.

            I averted my gaze when he noticed the change in my tone and I sighed. He had no idea what type of torture I had been through. After Seto had yelled at me yesterday, I had returned to my apartment in tears. To make matters worse, my brother was home and demanded I tell him what he had done to me. Of course I refused, I might have been angry and upset, but I still love Seto just as much. I looked to Joey again to see him still trying to read my expression. I really wanted to tell him everything but I know his strong dislike of Seto and it would only end up in an even bigger mess than it already was.

            "Joey I know what you're thinking," I said once his mouth opened to ask what I know he was going to ask,"I'm fine. I know I look upset but I'm okay, really."

            "Ya sure?"

            "Yes."

            I'm flattered by his concern. I always wondered why Seto hated him so much. Maybe it was just the fact that Seto never got along with anyone that led the two to become enemies but the blonde was so warm and affectionate, so honest and sincere. And in other words, he was so much better than Seto. It's such a harsh thing to say but Seto never showed me any affection. Joey on the other hand, constantly voiced his feelings to me and yet I choose to ignore them for my love for Seto continuously forced me to do so. I knew the boy liked me - it was hard not to see it and now as I sit here realizing my relationship with Seto was truly over, I'm beginning to consider dating him.

            Dating Joey.

            That's such a crazy thought. Not only would it make things awkward between me and Mai, considering she harbored unknown feelings for the blonde, but Seto would never forgive me. On the other hand, it would make him unbelievably jealous and would probably make him realize his feelings for me. But would I be willing to risk it?

            "Hey Joey, Seral."

            "Hiya Yuug."

            "Hello Yugi."

            Yugi.

            You probably didn't think I was friends with him but the truth is I'm very fond of him and his Yami. He's another person I question Seto's hatred toward. Actually, when I think about it, Seto only hates him competively and not personally, all on account of his pride. Seto isn't the type to let someone out do him - he always strive for the best and settles for nothing less. In ways, I admire him for it and yet in another way, I hate him for it. It leads him to strive to be someone he's not and causes him to become naive and reckless. When he sees a prize in front of him, he doesn't let anyone or anything stop him - which usually causes him to lose something close to him.

            I sigh loudly. I guess I sighed too loud for now both boys were staring at me curiously. It must be blatantly obvious that I was fretting over something. This whole situation was keeping me from concentrating on things - even the most simplest things such as reading. Why? Because I love him and damn it he's too stubborn to tell me he loves me too.

            "Seral, what's wrong? You haven't eaten anything."

            Ah, Yugi, always the sincere.

            "Nothing I just have alot on my mind, that's all," I say carefully. No one knew of me and Seto and I was doing well of hiding it until now. I raise my gaze briefly to look at the said boy's figure and found him returning my glance. His eyes some how are filled with rage but I know it's only on account of my friendship with Yugi. I was surprised he let me remain friends with him at all but after I had told him how sweet of a person Yugi was, Seto went about showing me that Yugi would never fuck me the way he does. It sounded foolish but Seto actually thought I was fucking Yugi. Of course, that was far from the case but after that day, I never thought twice of thinking about any other guy than Seto. The sex is or I mean was, just too good.

            "Seral? You've been staring at Kaiba for a long time," I hear Yugi's voice cut through my thoughts,"Did he say something to you?"

            Joey's voice bombards before I can answer,"Dat guy's nothin' but a big bossy, nosy jerk! I don't know how anyone could talk to 'im!"

            Joey the big brother.

            He's always looking out for me, just because he cares for me so much but sometimes he steps too far. What he says is true of Seto but still, I love him none the less - so this statement angers me. I do not know why but it makes me so angry that I suddenly stand from the table and walk away from them, heading directly for Seto's table. I know both of them are looking at me strangely, their eyes wide in surprise and shock but I was too busy trying to collect as much courage as I could as I approach the upcoming table to care.

            This would be the first time we've ever spoken to each other in school around others.

            I'm nervous as hell and Seto's expression isn't comforting. He's eyeing me angrily, his face filled with rage that I would even think to approach him in school. I know I have gotten the attention of the whole entire lunchroom, because the constant talking that echoed in the room had suddenly ceased. I stopped once I reached the table and placed my hands upon the table, never letting my eyes leave his.

            "What do you want?" He asks me coldly, his tone iced and filled with hate.

            I'm used to his cold demeanor, the shell he uses to cover his more vulnerable self, so I choose to ignore his comment and lean forward to place a kiss upon his cheek. The simple gesture causes the room to start up again in the constant jibberish and talk that it once was filled in and Seto's expression has deepened into a scowl. I sat beside him, knowing he would likely yell at me for what I have started. There was no doubt that rumors would fill the school by the end of the day. It's not like it was a bad thing, for from what I have heard, I was pretty popular amongst the guys and Seto amongst the girls. So if anything, it would make Seto look better than what he normally was, or maybe that's what made him so angry.

            "I still love you," I whispered trying to keep the words from wandering ears of people that were still staring at us.

            Seto's expression remains stoic and his mouth moves slowly,"I know."

            "Than why can't we just be best friends again?"

            "Because I'm a bastard," He simply puts it bluntly, slowly beginning to stand, grabbing his books and turning his back to me like he has done so many times before to end the conversation,"I don't deserve a girl like you, now leave me alone, Seral."

            I sit silently as he slowly strides out of the lunch room, pushing open the double doors to the hallway. I sighed again, angrily. I was tired of chasing him around like some love sick puppy but I cannot help it. I love this man so desperately that I would put up with his attitude to make him realize he loves me too. If he didn't love me, than why did he stop what he was doing the day before? He could have hurt me beyond words if he hadn't stopped when he had.

            But he didn't.

~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~

            She kissed me. In public.

            What is she trying to prove? That she's not ashamed to love me? I don't even want to think about it. I'm so tired from the lack of sleep our current situation had caused that I don't even care what had just happened. If others were going to ridicule me, than let them, for today I was just not in the mood to truly care.

            As I walk down the length of the hallway, I bump into another student. I growl angrily and turn to whoever it was and realized it was Tea Gardener.

            Tea. That stupid 'friendship' bitch that lectured me at duelist kingdom when Yugi forfeited his match to me. I narrowed my eyes at her, willing to let her have it for those pathetic words she spewed to me hoping it'd get to me and make me see reason. The truth was, the words she dropped were true, but that was besides the point. The woman had blabbed about friendship, and here, she couldn't stand me merely because of my attitude. If she had truly cared, she would have atleast gotten to know me before deciding to think of me as the hateful bastard that I am.

            I laugh inwardly at the thought and continue to narrow my eyes at her.

            "Watch where you're going Gardener."

            She hardened her eyes at me and returned my look with a glare,"You ran into me, Kaiba."

            I simply sneer at her remark and start to turn around to head where I had intended to go but a figure caught my eye. I looked up slightly to see Seral's figure walking towards me. I look to Gardener for a moment, the woman's face still twisted into anger and that's when I suddenly got the twisted plan that would sever me and Seral's bond, getting her back for what she had just done. I took the brunette's hand suddenly, tugging her forward and into my chest.

            "Kaiba! What the-"

            "Shutup," I growl as I bring my mouth down upon hers.

            I had intended the kiss to be short and simple, just enough to get Seral as angry as she had made me earlier for the scene she created in the lunchroom. But as soon as I felt how soft Gardener's lips were, how much they tasted like strawberries, my mind went blank and my desire took over. I pressed myself firmly against her, wrapping an arm around her waist and delving my mouth tightly against hers, prying her lips open and exploring her with my tongue.

            I heard her utter a soft gasp and squeal but she made no attempt to stop me as I continue to explore the inner workings of her depths. I had completely lost my reasoning, lost the feelings I thought I held for Seral right at the moment I felt her pressing back. Gardener was actually kissing me back, responding to what I was doing. I was startled at first and almost broke the kiss but her hands firmly clasped down on my shoulders and re-awoken my desire, fueling me to head forward, deeper into mouth.

            I suddenly felt her leg lift, wrapping itself around my waist and my hands wondered back toward her bottom, lifting her up against me. I could already feel my arousal spring to life, knowing how easily I could become aroused and tried to relax myself. I took this moment to slowly open my eyes slightly, casting my gaze to where Seral was standing. When I saw the expression on her face, saw the hurt in her eyes as she gazed upon on us, I went cold. Before I had a chance to unravel myself from the woman wrapped against me, Seral uttered a soft sob and turned, sprinting back down the hallway she had come.

            I raised my hands to remove Gardener from me, but she refused me. Her mouth only deepened the kiss and her arms tightened around me. Either she had secret feelings for me or she just hadn't had sex in a long time because the way she is touching me and kissing me - it has me in shock. I never once thought a woman as pure and cheerful as Gardener could be so fiery and vicious. I try to resist the constant bulging between my legs and try to once more pry her away from me.

            Finally, when she suddenly thrusts her hips against me, exposing her soft inner thighs to my manhood, I cave. I suddenly turned and leveled her up onto the wall, not caring who was in the hallway, who could see us or the fact that I had just hurt Seral unbelievably. My wanton desire had no means of telling me to stop and constantly sent the serging adrenaline to my nether regions. My hands became bold and started touching her, groping her, feeling the softness of her inner thighs underneath the skirt of her school uniform. I became impatient and knew I wanted to feel for more and finally lost all control of myself.

            Uttering a silent warning to her, I dropped my fly. Losing the last string of dignity I had for myself... and for Seral.... I raised her legs upon either side of me, her hands burying themselves into the folds of my coat, her face twisted in passion and need. I took a deep breath, my body quivering, ready for the rush that I knew my hormones were waiting for.

            In one mighty thrust, I took all of her.

~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~  +  ~

            That stupid bastard.

            I can't believe I trusted him. I'm walking down the hallway, not knowing where I'm going, just walking and trying to calm myself down. I've been crying this whole way and why? Because my only lover, is now breaking our promise, our deal and fucking Tea Gardener in the middle of the hallway. Over what?! I don't fucking know nor care because I have so much pent up anger at this moment that I just want to cause pain to myself.

            Pain.

            God, I'm crying harder now... I can't take this. He knows I love him. He knows and yet he does this to me anyway, to hurt me for what I did to him, to try and get me to leave him alone and give up on what we had. But I don't want to. I love him whether he likes it or not but I tell you one thing, he definitely made a step up on the bastard scale. He's past a ten now and working his way to twenty. I suddenly bump into someone and lose my balance, nearly falling over onto my behind but strong arms stop me, keeping me from meeting the cold floor.

            I look up-

            - and right into Ryou Bakura's eyes. I look kind of panicked I'm sure, for I've never been so up close to this young man before. I usually keep my distance, for he looked so mysterious and husky - so out of reach of my grasp, like a prince in a fairytale. His accent is so catchy and sexy that sometimes I listen in on his conversations in the hallway - but not once did I ever dare to talk to him. I just didn't have the guts.

            "Are you alright....Seral is it?" His accent makes my insides heat up.

            I open my mouth to speak but find that I do not have words at the moment. Instead, I do the only thing I am capable of at the time.....

            I cry.

            I go forward into his warm chest, grasping the front of his uniform and bawl like crazy. I cry for myself, for my love and for the foolishness that had lead me to believe that Seto had loved me in return. I can't control myself, for the scene of Seto kissing Tea just continually haunts my mind. The sudden realization that what me and Seto had was finally over, hit me so hard that I fear that I have no one now. Bakura just seems to stare quizzically at me, for I can feel his breath upon the top of my head. I suddenly feel his arms envelope me and his voice suddenly soften.

            "Don't cry, I'm sure everything will be fine."

            I don't know why, but I feel as though I should believe him. The way his voice soothingly speaks to me, the way he's slowly rocking me in his arms, makes me feel as though nothing could hurt me, that what I had saw happen never really happened and was just a figure of my imagination. I continue to cry into him, letting out all the pain and anguish I have felt the whole past two days that the entire situation had eminated from and finally slump into his arms. I let out a deep breath, finally relaxing after all the crying I had just done.

            "Do you feel better now?"

            I avoid eye contact for I am too embarassed to face him,"Yes, I'm sorry about all this... I just had a bad day."

            "It's quite alright. I understand - everyone has a bad day every once in while."

            I raise my eyes, daring to look at him. My breath catches at the beautiful sight. His eyes are a bright vivid blue, so much more full of life than Seto's and his hair, wispfully playing around his eyes and ears, was the lightest softest pale gray I had ever seen and his smile.... it was so invigirating. I felt the need to just kiss those thin lips that were stretched into a comforting smile and explore their softness. This boy was so mysterious and yet so alluring that I found myself fighting the desire to force him to touch me.

            I've become so used to Seto's ways that I have forgotten how to speak to men. I have found no need to flirt with other guys - I always had someone to come home to, someone to fuck. Seto had been that man but now that he has left that position, I find myself tripping over my words. I just continue to gaze at the beautiful man holding me, my thoughts lost in those deep blue pools. I finally feel his arms beginning to loosen and I blush uncontrollably.

            I never blush.

            "Aren't you in my physics class?" He suddenly asks me, his smile not once waivering.

            I simply nod, my blush more prominent than ever. I cannot help it. The boy was so...so... beautiful. Seto had been handsome and sometimes when he fell asleep after we fucked, I'd admire him but the boy before me.. I just blush at how perfect he was.

            I watch him as he suddenly raises an arm and rubs the back of his neck.

            "I know this seems a bit forward, but would you like to get something to eat after school?"

            I fight the urge to let my mouth hang open. This.... beautiful creature... was asking me out?! I know it's very corny to call him beautiful, but I am truly mesmerized by his features. I could imagine myself gazing endlessly into those deep eyes, running my hands through that soft hair, kissing those light pink lips....

            Than I think about Seto and my stomach goes into knots.

            What am I supposed to do? I love Seto but he has betrayed beyond words and now a new man steps into my life.. what was I supposed to say? Than my feelings fall into anger at the scene I had witnessed earlier and things become clear to me.

            "Sure," I simply say, my confidence suddenly finding its way into my body again,"I'd love to."

            I watch his smile broaden. God, that smile is sexy.

            "Great," He says excited,"Mind if I walk you home, than?"

            "No, not at all."

            So I follow him down the hallway, grinning like a maniac as he offers to carry my books for me. The boy is absolutely gorgeous and nothing like Seto at all. I can't help but feel slightly guilty at what I am doing but than again, Seto did the same thing to me and held no guilt what's so ever. So brace yourself Seto.

            Revenge can be a bitch.

            And so can I.
