Bakura smiled happily as Bastet purred happily in his lap, nuzzling against his hand as he petted her.
Honda smiled in turn, stroking Bakura's hair and waiting for the boy to start purring like the kitten.
Bakura gave a small blissful sigh, leaning into the touch happily.
Reaching around the boy in his lap, Honda took Bastet and lowered her to the floor before pinning Bakura down and nuzzling against his neck.
The boy near purred, smiling blissfully, reaching up to trace Honda's sides.
"I think you've been spending too much time with that cat," Honda said affectionately. "You're starting to sound like her."
"Mmmmm?" Bakura smiled. "I'll have to stop then, don't want you mother to think you're doing dirty things to poor Bastet."
"No, I think that would be worse than a passing dog and its owner," Honda agreed. "But I think I will now make you make some noises Bastet would never make." So saying, he turned his attention from Bakura's neck to his chest, opening the shirt he wore and nuzzling his way halfway down the boy's chest, licking and nibbling it lightly.
Bakura gasped, arching slightly, fingers tensing in the cloth of the taller boy's shirt as he murmured his name.
"Bakura," Honda murmured in return, his voice blowing lightly against the spot he had just been licking. "Daisuki."
The pale haired boy melted at the words, wrapping his arms around Honda tightly. "Daisuki yo..." he whispered intensely.
He slowly became aware of Bastet's nuzzling and mewing for attention and gave a small laugh. "Dame yo, Honda-kun," he said softly. "We can't with her here..."
Honda laughed as well and got up, picking up the kitten in a sweeping gesture that raised her high into the air. "You, my dear kitten, get to go outside so your daddy and I can play." He cuddled her a bit and then shooed her out of the room.
After closing the door behind her he turned back to Bakura. "Now then, where were we?" he said with a smile.
"Yo, Honda's Mom," Jounouchi greeted as the woman opened the door. "He in?"
The woman nodded. "He's upstairs in his room with Bakura," she said as she let the blond in. "Knock and give them a minute before going in," she commented.
"Eh? Why?" Jounouchi asked, slipping on the guest slippers.
"The cat's roaming again," Honda mom nodded at the grey kitten that was batting at Jounouchi's shoelaces. "So they're probably busy. Best to give them a bit to get descent."
"...decent?" Jounouchi repeated, eyes narrowing.
Bakura murmured appreciatively as Honda leaned down and nuzzled his neck, reaching up to lightly caress the taller boy's bare chest.
Honda hugged the pale haired boy tightly, leaning up to kiss him deeply while his hands played across the other boy's back.
Bakura melted into the kiss, parting his lips in invitation as he continued tracing patterns on Honda's skin.
Eyes closing in bliss, Honda slipped his tongue into Bakura's mouth, holding him in place against his own body.
The pale haired boy gave a slight moan before slowly breaking this kiss, looking up at Honda with loving eyes.
The moment was broken at the door to Honda's room was forcibly slammed open.
Bakura gave a petrified exclamation, curling up and clinging to Honda as he tried to hide.
Honda turned and looked at the invader. "Jounouchi no yarou! Don't you know enough to knock before coming into someone's room?"
The blond was staring at the pair of boys. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?!" he near growled.
Bakura gave a small muted whimper, curling up tighter against Honda.
"You're not the one who gets to ask that, yarou!" Honda replied, jumping to his feet and stalking over the Jounouchi, fists raised.
"So this is why ya've been ignoring me, huh?" Jounouchi seethed, fists clenched and ready. "You'd rather have Bakura in your bed then have anything to do with your best friend, huh?!"
"I'd rather be with someone who cares more about me than a stupid game!" Honda fired in return.
There was a mew, and the brunette looked down to see Bastet twining around his legs. Smiling down at her and ignoring Jounouchi's presence, he picked up the grey kitten and brought her over to the bed, putting her down next to Bakura, who was hiding under the blankets now that Honda had moved.
He turned back to Jounouchi, expression falling from tenderness to anger.
Jounouchi's expression had gotten darker. "You're always blaming the game... What is it really, Honda? Jealous cause I found something you can't beat me in?" he near sneered. "And now that you couldn't get my sister you went for someone you had no competition with? Couldn't even get with a real girl you had to go for a boy who looks and acts like one?" he shot.
Honda looked at the blond who was now sprawled across the floor, a dark mark beginning to form across his face. "Don't you DARE bring Shizuka into this. Yes, I loved her, but things change."
He glared down at Jounouchi, tempted to kick him now that he was down. "And if I hear you say anything bad about Bakura again, you'll need surgery to put your face back together."
Slowly the blond rose to his feet, eyes hard. "Fine...." he said, voice cold. "I hope he's fuckin' worth losing your friends over." With a final glare, he turned and stalked from the room.
Honda punched the wall, making a hole near the door, then turned and pulled the covers away from Bakura and gathering the boy and the concerned kitten into his arms, rocking him gently.
Bakura buried his face in Honda's chest, eyes overflowing as he clung to the taller boy.
"Shh," Honda said softly, stroking Bakura's hair. "Don't pay attention to him. He's just angry and jealous."
The pale haired boy continued to cling. "Gomen yo, Honda-kun..." he whispered.
"You don't have anything to apologize for," Honda assured him, kissing the top of his head. "Jounouchi is just a bastard."
"Demo... Jounouchi-kun wa Honda-kun no tomodachi yo..." Bakura sniffled, slowly calming, Bastet nuzzling against him. "I don't want him to hate either of us..."
"Whatever happens, you're more important," Honda said firmly, wiping Bakura's cheeks dry and kissing them.
The boy looked up, eyes wide. "Honto....?" he asked in a small voice, sounding vulnerable.
"You're more important than anyone else," Honda said softly, framing the smaller boy's face with his hands and meeting his eyes with warm sincerity.
Bakura gave a small smile, eyes overflowing again. "Honda-kun..." He hugged the boy tightly, reaching up to meet his lips.
Yuugi poked his head around the door. "Are you both ok?" he asked in concern.
Bakura startled, moving to pull away from Honda, eyes wide. "Yuu--Yuugi-kun..." he said, voice almost horrified, moving his arm to try and cover his bare chest.
Honda pulled Bakura defiantly back into his arms. "What do you mean, Yuugi?"
"Well, Jounouchi was really upset," Yuugi answered, entering the room, "And he had a bruise on his face. And when I asked what the other guy looked like he just muttered at me so it had to have been a fight with Honda-kun. So I came to see how you were."
Bakura closed his eyes, trying to keep from hyperventilating, arm held tightly over his chest.
"Bakura-kun?" Yuugi asked in concern. "Daijoubu? Ah! You've been crying! Did Jounouchi-kun hurt you?"
"Jounouchi and I fought and he said he wasn't our friend anymore," Honda explained, holding Bakura protectively.
"Sonna!"
Bakura looked down, not wanting to meet Yuugi's eyes. He gave a small smile, seeing Bastet rubbing against his leg and reached out to pet her, almost waiting for Yuugi to realize why Jounouchi had gotten angry and do the same.
"That's what happened," Honda said.
"I'll have to talk to him. I can't believe he'd say he wasn't your friend anymore!" Yuugi said with honest confusion.
Honda smiled slightly. "So you're not going to do the same?"
"Eh? No! If you're happy then I'm happy for you." He paused a moment, then added wistfully, "I just wish you would have told me before...."
Bakura looked up, blinking, suprized. Slowly he gave a smile. "Arigatou, Yuugi-kun," he said softly, relaxing against Honda with relief.
Honda kissed his hair while Yuugi smiled happily at them. "Can you keep a secret?" the small boy asked, wriggling slightly with embarrassment.
Bakura nodded, snuggling close to Honda as he absentmindedly petted Bastet.
"I'm going out with Kaiba-kun," Yuugi blurted out, blushing bright red.
Bakura blinked. "With... Kaiba-kun...?" he repeated, utterly confused. "De--demo...."
"You sure that's a good idea, Yuugi?" Honda asked seriously.
Yuugi hung his head a moment, but nodded. "I really like him," he said wistfully. "Even if he mostly likes mou hitori no boku because they can duel...."
Bakura blinked a few more times. "I guess it's good I never let you know when I had a crush on you..." he said absentmindedly before freezing, realizing what he had admitted. He blushed bright red and looked down at Bastet again.
Both other boys' eyes widened. "You did?" Yuugi asked.
Bakura nodded slightly, blush deepening. "Anzu-chan would have killed me if I tried anything," he near mumbled.
"Anzu?" Yuugi asked.
"Don't tell me you don't know that she has a crush on you?" Honda asked incredulously.
"Anzu?" Yuugi repeated with a laugh. "She's just a friend. I'm glad you're both ok. I'll go now, so I'm not in the way." He smiled and left.
Bakura gave a soft smile, snuggling against Honda's chest. "He doesn't hate me...." he said softly, voice amazed.
"Of course he doesn't," Honda answered. "You're wonderful."
The pale haired boy looked up, melting at the praise. "Really...?"
"Would I say it if I didn't think so?" Honda responded with a smile, brushing Bakura's cheeks.
The boy smiled happily. "Honda-kun..."
Honda smiled in turn, stroking Bakura's hair and waiting for the boy to start purring like the kitten.
Bakura gave a small blissful sigh, leaning into the touch happily.
Reaching around the boy in his lap, Honda took Bastet and lowered her to the floor before pinning Bakura down and nuzzling against his neck.
The boy near purred, smiling blissfully, reaching up to trace Honda's sides.
