..::: Unexpected

by: Asa

Pairings: Joey x Asayo (OC, duh! ^_^;;)

The Point?: I'm sorry I did this, but this is a vampire fic.. Please don't hate it already! Give it a chance!!

Archive: Why would you want to? Um, just ask, okay?

Asa's Random Before Thoughts: Yay, I'm talking to Richard (my boyfriend) for the last time before his connection gets transferred to his new home. I guess he'll be gone for about one week, which isn't THAT bad, but still, I'm going to miss him lots. That's why Dante and Jou have volunteered to keep me company during that period of time! *grins* Hehe. Anyway, this chapter is NOT about that Puff Daddy song, and it has NOTHING to do with it. It's a… cool… song, but I'm sorry, this chapter has absolutely nothing to do with it. Meh, Mom wants me to get directions to the chapel that my brother is getting married in. I'm not even going, I THINK, anyway, so.. oh bloody hell, I better find it anyway with my Streets 98.. *snickers*

What the hell, this place is impossible to find!! We'll have to call the chapel itself tomorrow (July 25, 2003) and get them.. anyway, I'll stop yacking and write. Not sure what this will turn out to be, but oh well. Here you go.

..::: 2. Come With Me

(Jou's POV)

Someone's touching me, it's that girl! My eyes went wide as I felt the nails on the back of my neck, I tried to jump up and run but something was keeping me rooted to the spot. Something, dare I say, intoxicating. Something about this girl's touch made me want more, it felt wrong, I didn't even know who it was, but even more so did it feel right. It was almost as if.. she had some kind of power over me..

Her fingers outlined my lips and I whimpered with desire. The hell am I doing?!? I don't even know who this is!! But it feels good.. no one's ever touched me before.. that doesn't matter, I have to cut it out!

Jou drew back swiftly and fell back onto his bottom, eyes darting wildly around him.

"Who are you?!" he shouted, grateful that the moon was slipping out from the eclipse slightly, at least now he could see where she was.

"Call me Asayo.. and before you ask, I read your mind to find out your name.." she replied sarcastically, knowing that was the next thing he would ask.

"You what!?!" he yelled, causing the strange girl to issue a hiss.

"Shhh.. Jou.. I've come to you in your time of need.. and no, you're not dreaming.. I'm real.."

The moon slipped a bit further from the umbra and splashed just a little more light upon the Earth. Jou could see her a little clearer, she had very long hair and wore what appeared to be a gothic gown. She glanced up at the moon and he saw the light reflect in her dark eyes before she stood up and crept back toward the trees.

"Wait!" Jou found himself on his own feet, following after her blindly. She stopped and turned to face him, reaching out and holding his shoulder.

"What?" she asked. He became nervous, and he knew she could sense it, she just seemed to have some strange power..

Asayo knew he would allow himself to be ravished, but she didn't want that. Jou was a pure soul with incredible power, and something about the boy attracted her to him. She'd been fighting off all of the instincts that were bound to her soul, she was the only of her kind to be blessed, or rather punished with a soul, thanks to a familiar friend. Yami.

"I.. where are you going, why not come back to the camp with me and my friends?" Jou asked, sounding like a lost child, afraid to be left alone. She smiled within the darkness and moved toward him, slipping her arms around his body and holding his shoulders.

"Trust me.." she started in a whisper in his ear, extending her tongue and sliding it across. Jou's breath escaped him abruptly as he gasped nosily in surprise, she closed her eyes and held him tighter, gliding her tongue along his jaw to his chin. Jou's knees weakened as he whimpered in the simple pleasure he was receiving and he went limp against her body, his mind racing at a dizzying speed. Asayo's mind was racing as well, how could something so simple bring him so much pleasure? She frowned, immediately assuming the answer. He'd probably never been kissed.

'Poor boy..' she thought, moving her hand from his shoulder and taking his chin between her thumb and forefinger.

"Huh?" he murmured, unintentionally parting his lips as Asayo brushed hers against them softly, causing a pleasing sting to burn through him like wildfire.

Asayo paused and brought her lips to his ears once more, finishing the answer she had started before.

"..you wouldn't want me to do that.." she turned away and disappeared into the dark, leaving Jou unable to follow.

"Wait! Asayo!? Will I ever find you again??" he called, desperately hoping that she had heard him. A chuckle echoed from beyond the void.

"I found you, Jounou.. but if you truly wish to come with me, I will seek you out once more."

"What are you? Are you an angel?" Jou asked sincerely, there was no way she could be human. And he was right, partially. The question triggered a faint snort of laughter.

"Far from an angel, Jou.. I'm a vampire."

Her presence was gone, and Jounouchi was alone once more. The eclipse was complete, he was out of the umbra, and he was left in a state of shock and awe. Asayo was a vampire!? A vampire had kissed him and walked away?! He had lived through a vampire's encounter?!

"Jou!? There you are!" a familiar voice called, and the group of his four friends approached him through the trees, Honda in the front.

"Where'd you go, we were worried sick during that eclipse!" he hollered, only jarring Jou out of his thinking enough for him to acknowledge who was there with him now.

"Uh.. I came out to be alone for a little while.." he mumbled, allowing the taller boy to put his arm around his shoulders and guide him back to their camp.

"Well don't do that again!" Anzu screeched, plopping down at the fire. Honda moved away once they were in the light and went to set up his sleeping bag, with Yuugi who had decided to do the same. That left Jou standing at the edge of the trees with the shyest amongst them.. Ryou.

The white-haired boy turned to look at Jou a little skittishly, almost in fear.

"Jou.. why do you have lipstick on?" he asked, almost letting out a laugh. Jou raised a brow and wiped his mouth off frantically.

"What!??!" he shouted, rubbing the red smudge from his lips with the back of his hand.

"Eh.. I don't know, maybe I.. uh.. cut my lip or something.. it's not lipstick!" he hid his hand behind his leg, blushing furiously at Ryou.

"Was someone out there with you during the eclipse, Jounouchi?" he asked, the fear returning in his chocolate shaded eyes. As if he knew something..

Jou glanced around the camp to make sure no one else noticed the two conversing, he figured that if he could tell anyone, Ryou would be the most trusting or understanding.

"Eh.. yeah. Some.. girl, named Asayo.." As soon as he spoke the girl's name, Ryou's eyes went wide and he looked even more frightened than before. He did know something..

"What is it, Ryou? You know her?" he asked, lowering his voice so the others could hardly hear him whispering.

"Um.. well.. yes.. in a way.." Ryou answered, glancing at Jou's neck.

"Man, I know she's a vampire, she told me before she disappeared.. it's crazy, I mean, how.. ahh!" he cried out in surprise as Ryou leapt forward as if possessed and grabbed his shoulders, pulling him down to examine his neck closer. The others were looking at them, but neither noticed.

"She didn't bite you!" he hissed in disbelief, looking at Jou as if he were a god. Jou raised a brow, then remembered he had been thinking the same thing before they found him.

"Yeah, I know.. Ryou, whatdaya know about Asayo? What made you look so scared when I mentioned her?" he asked, almost pleaded with the shyer boy, grabbing his arms to emphasize that he really wanted to know. Ryou hesitated, looking down at his feet, afraid that if he told something bad would happen.

"I.. didn't think she was real.. Jou, I heard about her in a story." he sighed, looking the blonde in the eyes.

"What!? Heard about her in a story??" Jou shouted, finally gaining another person in their conversation.

"Yeah, the story about the vampire duelist who wants the blood of Pegasus! Why, what happened Jou, did you get kissed by Asayo?" Honda asked sarcastically, referring to the story. Jou hesitated, everyone was looking at him, especially Ryou.

"Um.. yeah, I did.." he answered quietly, not sure what it meant. He walked over to his sleeping bag and laid down on it, his back to everyone else.
