Valentine's Day for Lovers

*Chapter 5*

"Seto-san, what's wrong? You've been like that since Yugi talked to you"

They were in a café drinking coffee.

Shizuka was suspicious about Seto's attitude right now.

To anyone's eyes he looked depressed and sad.

Obviously he wasn't enjoying his date with Shizuka.

Seto remained quiet.

He was definitely not gonna tell Shizuka that Yami was his love.

"Seto-san?!"

Shizuka was getting impatient.

She already felt bad when Yugi interrupted.

Now she was losing her temper.

"If you're not gonna tell me, I'm gonna go ask Yugi!"

Shizuka stood up and walked away.

. . .Of course, she didn't leave any money for her own coffee. . .

**************************************************************************

"What's the matter?!"

Shizuka exclaimed when she saw Jounouchi's end-of-the-world face at his house.

Jounouchi was sitting on the couch in the dark living room.

"Oh Shizuka. . . hi. . . why did you come here?"

Jounouchi still managed to smile for Shizuka.

"I wanna know where Yugi lives"

Shizuka wanted to go talk to Yugi right away but then she realized that she doesn't know where he lives.

". . .Oh. . . Yugi's house. . . why do you wanna go there?"

Jounouchi's brain was processing slower than usual from the shock that Anzu didn't give him a chocolate.

At the same time he was remembering about Mai and felt guilty for wanting Anzu's chocolate while having some feelings towards Mai.

"I wanna talk to him"

Shizuka said honestly because she hated lying to her brother.

She loved her brother so much that she always wanted to be honest to him but this time she didn't want to tell the reason so she just said the general information on what she was up with.

Jounouchi explained her the ways to Yugi's house and she was ready.

"Thanx!"

Shizuka said while she was putting her shoes on at the doorway.

"Careful, he could be a wolf too"

Jounouchi recovered at least a little bit by Shizuka's visit.

Recovered to the point where he could say jokes like that.

Shizuka was blushing when she opened the door and went outside.

**************************************************************************

"I'm sorry Bakura"

Malik remained silent for about 10 minutes after Bakura let him in.

Now he decided to apologize.

Bakura stood up and went to the kitchen.

Malik thought that his apologies were rejected and was heartbroken again.

But that only lasted for a couple of minutes, until Bakura handed Malik a cup of hot chocolate.

Malik was impressed by Bakura caring about him, and at the same time was embarrassed of feeling rejected by such a nice soul.

". . .Oishii. . ."

Malik felt his body warming up again from the cold.

"Hot chocolate for Valentine's"

Bakura said, sipping his own drink.

He seemed to forget that Malik apologized to him, but right now they no longer needed words.

They understood each other by looking into their eyes.

Malik felt some sensations inside his body and soul.

He was feeling very emotional about Bakura right now and he really wanted all of Bakura.

In other words, he was feeling sexy.

He noticed that right away but he didn't dare to say it so he just thought of it and blushed.

"You're red, Malik"

Bakura kissed him.

It was a deep kiss, filling up the emptiness that Malik was feeling this morning.

Soon it turned into a French kiss.

". . .Ah. . . Bakura. . . wait. . ."

Malik thought he would burn and become steam in Bakura's arms.

Suddenly, Bakura's eyes changed.

Malik felt the chills run up his backbone.

". . .Bakura. . .?"

Malik was scared.

It was still Bakura but something was different.

His eyes are as cold as ice.

He looked very angry.

Malik pushed Bakura away.

"What's wrong?!"

Malik screamed.

He was too scared to continue.

Bakura pushed Malik down on the floor.

He hit the table and his remaining hot chocolate dripped on the floor.

Bakura pressed his lips tightly onto Malik's.

Malik was just stunned by Bakura's sudden change.

". . .You're not gonna tell me that the French kiss was the payback for the phone call are you, babe?"

Bakura couldn't hold anymore.

Malik kept on refusing for a long time but Bakura couldn't stand it.

Now Malik was under a forced relation.

**************************************************************************

When Mai woke up in her room it was already 2:30 in the afternoon.

Last night Mai was dancing all night at the disco with her friends.

". . .My head hurts. . ."

Not only that she was hearing dance music at MAX volume for 9 hours, but she drank three cans of beer, two glasses of wine, and 5 glasses of cocktail.

No doubt she would wake up with a huge headache.

". . .I'm pathetic. . ."

Mai mumbled to herself when she went into the bathroom and saw herself in the mirror.

She washed her face and freshened up at least a little.

But her headache and her heartache were still there.

Mai was at the disco to catch a guy for today.

She was getting frustrated about Jounouchi's attitude that shows no love towards her.

So what she came up with was to be with a guy and show it to Jounouchi to see his reaction.

The result was bad. . . she slept with two guys and asked out seven but nobody wanted any single girl to go steady with them.

In the end she just ended up having wasty sex with guys she didn't care for.

She really felt bad for sleeping with other guys while she loved Jounouchi and she now has another thing she can't confess to him.

A/N: Mai's feeling stumbled into this tangled web too! What would the effect be?
