Sorry I haven't update in a while. But I've been busy.
I read some of the comments, and I'll try to fix my grammar thou, that was always my main weakness. I should have explained myself in from the beginning.
There's a reason some of the characters are out of well character. The main one, is Seto, well because he is going to something that's changing him, he longer has the barrier around him that makes him seem so cold and distant. And there's pretty much nothing he can do about it, because it's happening and he doesn't know about it.
They other characters are out of place because it goes better with the story, sorry about that.
Mine
"When my focal point is set
I'm something I know I'll get
It's not a question of how but more of when
You are one commodity
The choice is mine and mine for keeps
I can bring you to my side"

Tea puffed and would like back every minute or so.
"Tea, I think you're going to hurt your neck if you keep doing that," Serenity stated.
"Yeah, Tea, even Joey isn't looking back," Tristan said. He and Serenity were in the middle seat, while Tea and Yugi's Grandpa were up front. Joey and Bakura were in the back.
"Well, yeah, he's making out with Bakura," Tea stated.
"Do you mind?" Joey shouted from the back, he had Bakura wrapped in his arms.
"I don't know why there with him," Tea pouted.
"Because one of them wouldn't have fit, and this way we're all comfortable," Tristan said.
"But Seto seems like I nice person, he doesn't look mean at all," Serenity stated.
"Don't be fooled, he's a jerk," Tea stated.
"Was a jerk, he's changed Tea," Yugi's grandpa stated.
"No offense, Mr. Motou, but how do you know?" Joey asked when he heard this.
Bakura rolled his eyes and just sat back, he wasn't going to get anything out of him when he's like this.
"Why don't you asked your boyfriend, why he thinks like that to?" Tristan stated.
Bakura glared at Tristan, he didn't want to be dragged into this.
"What would Bakura know?" Joey asked.
"Why are you attacking like I'm not here, or that I'm stupid?" Bakura asked.
"Sorry love," Joey said as he looked back at him. He was about to wrap him in his arms again and resume what they had been doing when, Bakura simply crossed his arms and turned his head away.
"Aw, Bakura please don't," Joey plead.
Yami smiled as he heard Yugi, Ryou and Mokuba laughing. They seemed to having fun watching the movie. He looked at Seto and he too had a smile on his face, he must be thinking about the same thing.
"Yami, do you know how much more?" Seto asked.
"Let's see, it takes three hours to get there. And we've been on the road for a one and half," Yami started.
"So an hour and half to go," Seto finished.
"Right," Yami said.
"So we're about half way there," Yugi stated.
"Seto, I'm hungry," Mokuba stated.
"You're hungry already?" Seto laughed.
"Yes," Mokuba stated.
"Actually, I'm a little hungry too," Yugi stated.
"Um, the sign stated that there's a town close by, I guess we could stop. Does anyone have a cell phone in the van?" Seto asked.
"Yeah, Tea," Ryou answered.
"My cell phone is on its charger, call her and ask if they can pull over to bye something to eat," Seto said never taking his eyes of f the road.
"Okay," Yami said and looked at the cell phone, and saw that it was hooked up to a strange thingy. He was still confused when it came to technology. He was barely getting the hand of computers.
"Sorry here," Seto said.
He took one had off the wheel and pulled the cell phone with ease. He handed the phone to Yami and for a moment their fingers touched. Yami could still feel the warmth of his fingers. He dialed Tea's number and waited for her to answer.
"Aw, Bakura, please don't be mad," Joey plead with his insulted boyfriend.
Bakura still had not looked at him. He swore Joey was obsessed with Seto Kaiba, he himself admits that Seto was a jerk back then, but he had been worse. After all, he had tried to trap them in the Shadow Realm. So does Joey think of him?
His chain of thought was disrupted by a ringing. He looked and saw Tea looking at her cell phone.
Tea had been looking back when he heard her cell phone ring. She looked at it and saw and unfamiliar number.
"Who's this?" Tea asked to no one.
"Hello?" Tea answered.
"Tea, its Yami," a voice said on the other line.
"Yami, whose cell ate you using?" Tea asked.
"Seto's," he answered.
"Oh," Tea frowned.
"Tea, can you tell Grandpa to stop at a gas station or something, we're a little hungry," Yami said.
"Okay," Tea said she was about to say something else when Yami said bye and hung up.
"Mr. Motou if you could stop at a gas station?" Tea asked.
"Okay," he answered and slowed down as he saw one close by.
They came to a slow stop at the local gas station. Everyone climbed out of the vehicles that they rode in. Mokuba took hold of Seto's hand and pulled him into the store followed by the rest of the group. They walked by the candies and Seto said only one. Mokuba pouted but Seto stood firm on his decision. Yugi and Ryou came to them and picked two or three candies.
"But they are getting more than one," Mokuba stated.
"They're older," Seto stated.
Yami walked over to them, as he saw Mokuba pouting. He noticed Yugi and Ryou picking two candies and Mokuba only had one. He smiled and walked over to them.
"Yami, can you tell Seto to let me have more than one candy," Mokuba pouted.
"Um, I don't know about that, but there's a restaurant next door, did you guys want to bye something to eat there?" Yami stated.
They walked over and ordered what they felt like eating. Within a few minutes they were back outside and started to it.
Outside was beautiful, the ground was lightly covered with snow, as were the branches of some of the trees that spread across the horizon. The sun would be setting soon, it would night be the time they got to the cabin. As the group sat on benches in front of the cars, Seto and Mokuba sat down on the hood of his car. They started to eat in silence.
Yami watched Seto closely, something was different about him, yet at the same time very familiar. He seemed tired. They had finished their meal and Joey wanted to duel him.
"I really don't think it's the time or place, for this Joey," Seto replied in a tone that screamed he could careless.
"What? He's not good enough for you, Kaiba?" Tea asked sarcastically.
"No, Tea, I'm not in the mood," Seto answered.
"Please Kaiba, stop pretending and say what you really want to say," Tea stated.
Seto simply raised an eyebrow and crossed his legs. He said nothing.
"Maybe we should get going?" Yugi stated, see the tension build up.
"Wait, Yugi, I really want to give him a piece of my mind," Tea said as she stepped up to him.
"Tea, do you really want to make a scene?" Seto asked as he stepped of the hood and offered his had to Mokuba.
"I'm not done with you," Tea stated. She pushed Seto slightly and he simply looked shocked, what was her problem?
Yugi tried to calling her, but she seemed off in her own little world.
"I don't even know why you're here. You heartless machine, you care about nobody but yourself. You're the type of guy, who isn't happy with what his had and has to make everyone else miserable. That's why you're here, isn't it? You just want to ruin everything you worthless bast-," Tea started but was cut off.
"Tea, that's enough," Yami shouted in a commanding voice. He stepped in between Seto and Tea. He looked at her with such anger that caused her to step back.
Mokuba had been looking at his brother the whole time. Those words he had heard them before throw in Seto's direction, especially the last ones. His adoptive father, Mr. Kaiba, had been especially fond of those words when addressing Seto after he did something he didn't approve of, like playing with him. He saw that Seto started to shake. Those words had gotten to him.
Mokuba wasn't the only one to notice, so did the others.
"Kaiba, are you alright?" an elderly gentle voice asked. Mr. Motou was very worried now; the young man was shaking and very pale.
At hearing this, Yami turned around, and his eyes quickly soften.
"Seto, are you alright?" Mokuba asked as he stepped closer to his brother.
"Yes, just tried, that's all," Seto signed quietly.
"Come on, we should get going," Yami said as he placed his hand gently on Seto's arm. Seto nodded in agreement.
"Ryou, can you drove us the rest of the way?" Yami asked the silent albino.
"Yes," Ryou answered.
He went over and got the keys from Seto and opened the doors. Yami and Mokuba led Seto to the back seat and each one sat down beside him. Yugi climbed in the front seat. Hr looked back at Seto who seemed to have clamed down a bit.
Yami had ordered him to sleep which was met with protest but quickly gave in.
Tea had been still through out the whole thing. She hadn't expected Yami to look so angry at her. All she did was, tell Seto the truth.
"Tea, come on get in the van," Joey said as he climbed in. She nodded and walked over, she climbed in but not before she saw Seto close his eyes and rest his head on Yami's shoulder.
She narrowed her eyes and climbed him, she was silent, and the whole van remained silent. The whole scene had been a shock. None of them had expected to see Seto react like that.
Joey signed, he was tired. He wrapped his arms around Bakura's waist and before he could object, Joey placed his head at the angle at Bakura's neck and shoulder. He nuzzled him and pulled him closer. Bakura eyes soften and he wrapped his arms around his tired lover. He leaned his head down and placed it on Joey's. Slowly he closed his eyes.
Back in the other vehicle, Yami had convinced Seto to sleep which was a win for him, but having him lay his head on his shoulder was an added bonus. Mokuba had fallen asleep with his head on Seto's shoulder. They would be arriving soon.
