Jaded Affection

Chapter three- Beginnings
Warnings- Kaiba/Jounouchi happy fluffy yaoi.
Notes- Story is told primarily in Jounouchi's POV. It's just easier that way. And there will be a reference to Gravitation. For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a BL television show. (BL= boys love- AKA shounen ai/ Yaoi whatever you want to call it.) I won't get into what it's about but if you like yaoi stuff you should check it out. And for those of you who do know what it is, I've only seen the show. I'm using the manga in this story and I'm pretty sure Shuichi has brown hair in the manga but I'm using the pink haired one in the show.
Rated-R for language and m/m sexuality.
***Jounouchi's POV***
My first mod class was running late, apparently our lovely teacher Ms. Akatski was sick and the school hadn't gotten a sub yet. Surprisingly enough the class wasn't in complete chaos, they were just chatting to the closest person. I looked to my left and saw Anzu and Yugi talking. He must have made some semblance of a joke because she had just burst out into blatantly fake laughter. Rolling my eyes I looked to my right and saw Kaiba a few seats down, he was alone reading a book. He's always reading that same book, I figured now was as good a time as any to test my theory. I got up and walked over to the empty seat next to him.
"Hey Kaiba." I said cheerfully. He didn't hear me, must have been really engrossed in the book he was reading. I tapped him on the shoulder. Startled, he shoved the book under his binder hiding it from view.
"What do you want?" He looked up at me confused.
"Well hello to you too." I looked at the empty seat next to him, "Do you mind if I sit down?"
"Why?" Now he looked even more bewildered.
"Why what?" I scratched the back of my head.
"Why do you want to sit there?" he looked at me like it was unfathomable that any person would ask such a question, "There are plenty of other free seats."
"Maybe because I wanted to talk to you." I pulled the chair out and sat down, plopping my arms on the desk. I looked at him, "Is that such a shock?"
"But you hate me. And I hate you." He eyed me suspiciously, " Forgive me if I think it's odd that you're so buddy-buddy today. Not to mention yesterday you couldn't even look at me without fleeing and bawling your eyes out." I winced at the reference to my masculine inadequacies.
" I told you It was just allergies!" I regained control of myself, "Anyway I don't hate you... that much, and you certainly don't hate me." I propped my head up with my left arm and winked at him.
"What the hell are you talking about?" The wink seemed to take him off guard, "That shows how stupid you are, I certainly do hate you. Very much. Um... with the burning passion of a thousand volcanoes."
"No you don't." I grinned wildly at him, "You looooove me."
He jumped back in his seat, blushing profusely.
"You're delirious." He looked away from me, "Leave me alone."
"Deny it all you want. It doesn't change the fact that you're madly in love with me." I said mockingly. Very pleased with my self so far I continued, "Now why don't you just make this easier on both of us and admit that you long for me."
"Shut up." Kaiba raised his left arm to shield his face from me.
"You know its true" I lowered my voice to a whisper and touched his shoulder softly; he drew breath and shuddered slightly.
I bit back a smile. I was right!
"Don't touch me." His voice was barely audible.
"So do you think about me?" I leaned in closer to his ear still whispering, "At night when you do naughty things to yourself." I looked up to make sure no one was looking before I ran my hand down his thigh. He gasped.
"Stop!" He choked out before brushing my hand away, "What are you insane?" He grabbed his math text and used it to cover his lap.
I took a pen he had on his desk, wrapped my lips around it and sucked on it lightly. He watched me his mouth hanging open. I slid the pen out of my mouth running my tongue along the bottom of it.
"So when you fantasize about me are you on top?" I saw that Kaiba was still looking at my lips, so licked them. He swallowed hard. This was too easy. I guess I could be damn sexy if I tried.
"I said stop it." He averted his eyes from my lips, "Your completely mad."
"You can't deny the passion you have for me Seto." That seemed to take him by complete surprise.
"..." He brought his eyes to mine, his cheeks still flushed. "Why did you call me that?"
His question threw me completely off my game, "Call you what?"
"Seto... No one ever calls me that." He had this look on his face, almost like he was lost. "Except for Mokuba, but most of the time he just calls me big brother."
"That's your name. Why wouldn't I call you that?" I looked at him, one eyebrow slightly raised.
"...Everyone just calls me by my last name, Kaiba." He looked down, his voice was soft "Its always so impersonal. All anyone knows me as is Kaiba, the head of Kaiba Corp. The rich snobby kid, or Kaiba the Duel monsters champion. Or rather former champion. No one ever bothers to see Seto. No one ever bothers to see me."
I was shocked. I felt horrible, I was the epitome of the kind of person he was talking about. I never looked past his reputation I never even tried. The worst thing about it was I always thought of myself as this kind open- minded person. The kind of person that could see through someone's outer shell. I was a hypocrite.
"I'm sorry." I said softly. He looked up at me, "You're right. Every time I saw you, you were just Kaiba the ass-hole who always called me a dog for no reason and always had this unfounded hatred for me. And for that I am sorry, but lets be fair here Kai- Seto, you're not exactly an open book. I mean when I first met you in Mr. Mutou's card shop the very first thing you said to me was an insult. Maybe if you lower your defenses a little and let people know the real Seto, then maybe you'd have more friends."
"I don't need friends." His voice back to its usual adversarial tone.
I felt awkward before asking him, "Have you ever had a friend, besides you brother?"
"No, friends will just make you soft and weak." I really felt sorry for him. He must have felt so alone.
It felt weird, one minute I was having fun mocking him the next I felt bad for him. And I wanted to make him... happier.
"Everyone needs friends Seto." I paused before letting myself open to ridicule, "Let me be your first."
"Jounouchi..." He looked like he wasn't used to any kind of affection.
"Here I'll make you a deal. You show me a little more of Seto, and I..." I flicked his nose playfully, "Will be you're bestest friend in the whole world. You know we may have more in common then you thought. What do you say?"
"I..." He seemed hesitant to believe me, then he smiled. And for once it wasn't a cocky holier than thou smile. It was genuine. It's like I was actually seeing him for the first time, "I think... I can do that."
"Good." A man walked into the classroom, "Hey I guess they found a sub after all, I'll talk to you later Seto." He nodded and I made my way back to my assigned seat.
The substitute introduced himself, and started today's lesson. But all I could think about was Seto. Before today he was Kaiba, and Kaiba always seemed to be three things. Arrogant, self-centered and one last trait that I really could never put my finger on until now. He was lonely but he doesn't look like he is anymore. Now he's Seto, and I didn't really know anything about him. But I do know that I want to.

"Here." The grotesquely overweight Cafeteria lady pushed the tray toward me.
"Uh, thanks." I shifted slowly with the crowd until I got to the end of the line. I handed the woman at the register the dollar fifty and made my way over to our groups usual lunch table.
I saw Yugi, Honda and Anzu chatting. I sat down next to Yugi and joined in the tedious banter that enveloped any meal between friends. After a few boring exchanges with Honda about which cheerleader is the hottest I looked up and saw Seto. He was sitting all by himself reading a book taking the occasional sip from a bottle of Avon water.
"Hey if you guys don't mind I'm gonna go sit with Seto today." I stood up.
"Who? Kaiba?" Honda eyed me suspiciously before apparently coming to his own conclusion, "Oh you're going to make fun of him and stuff. Right?"
"No, he doesn't have anyone to sit with. I thought it would be nice to keep him company." I picked up my food tray and waved goodbye to Yugi, Anzu and a confused Honda. Weaving in between tables I thought about that book that he always has with him. I walked up to the table where Seto was sitting and I sat across from him.
"Hi Jounouchi." He said cheerfully, shutting his book.
"Hiya Seto." I picked up a French fry and swirled it around in a blob of ketchup.
"You don't have to do this you know." Seto leaned back on his chair crossing his arms across his chest.
"Do what?" I placed the fry in my mouth and chewed silently while listening to him.
"Talk to me, sitting with me. I know you're trying to be nice, but what are you getting out of this?" He picked up his bottle of water and took a sip.
"A friend. Is it so difficult to believe that I don't have an ulterior motive?" I said before going back to my fries.
"I guess not." He twisted the cap shut on his water bottle.
"So... I guess since were friends now I should know more about you." I stopped eating for a moment and looked at him, "So what is that book you're always reading?"
"Oh this?" He raised the book to me. It looked suspiciously plain, it wasn't to thick and it had a black cover without any writing or illustrations on it, "It's just a manga."
He pulled the slipcover off and showed the front to me. It had a man with blonde hair on the front hugging what appeared to be a pink haired girl wearing a bunny costume. It had a dark purple back round and the title 'Gravitation' at the top.
"I never really pegged you for an anime geek." I quickly snatched the book from his hands and opened it.
"Wait!" He tried to grab it back but I held it away from him.
"What is it porn or something?" I smiled and looked at the page I had opened up to. On it was the same two people from the cover of the book kissing. Only it wasn't a girl in the bunny suit. It was a little pink haired boy. I gawked at the picture for a few seconds before opening my mouth to speak. "Oh."
"Great." He pulled the book away from me, "Now my questionable taste in literature has alienated you from ever speaking to me again. Just go sit with your friends I'll understand."
"Stop being a drama queen, its nothing." He looked surprised that I was still sitting there, We sat there in silence for a few moments, searching desperately to find something to talk about I decided to continue the continue on the anime subject. "So... what other anime do you like?"
"A bunch of stuff really." He put his Gravitation manga down, "Fushigi Yuugi, Weiss Kruez, Gundam Wing and other stuff I could list until the end of lunch period. Even though I'm a guy I like shoujo anime more than shounen anime. The stories just seem more developed and thought out. More romance and less violence."
"Uh huh." I nodded like I knew what the hell he was talking about. "So you are really into anime stuff."
"Definitely." he nodded enthusiastically, "It's kinda embarrassing but in my free time I write fan fiction and draw fan art for some of the series that I really like."
"So are they all like... gay anime?" I felt kinda bad for my complete lack of subtlety but there really wasn't any other way to word it, "You know like your Gravitation book."
"It's not really 'gay' anime. It's geared more toward girls. And most of them don't even have men having relationships with other men." Seto placed his hands together; his voice was light and casual. "So I've told you stuff about me how about you tell me some of your interests."
"You know, the usual guy stuff. Chicks and cars." It was my pathetic attempt at a joke, but he seemed to take it seriously.
"Oh" His voice filled with disappointment.
"It was a joke, lighten up."
He shifted nervously in his seat, before taking another sip from his water bottle. A few moments of silent eating took place before either of us said anything.
"Look Jou I'm sorry but..." He caught himself mid sentence and stopped abruptly.
"But what?"
That's my amazing charm, one moment he's babbling on about his girly anime and now he's too embarrassed to even speak to me.
"I don't know I just thought that maybe there was more behind your friendly advances than just friendship." Seto seemed to struggle for the right words. I didn't say anything I just avoided looking at him and took bites out of my hamburger, "Well? Am I reading things the wrong way? Or was I right?"
"Look." I dropped the burger on my tray. I didn't really know what to say to him, "I don't know ok. I mean I've thought about girls all my life and I don't think that I'm really like... that, but you're different."
"What is that Jounouchi? You probably know how I feel, so if nothing is going to happen then it'll just be best if you tell me now."
"All I know is that I like you. Isn't that enough?"
"No. I'm sorry but, I don't want to set myself up for disappointment."
"I don't even know what I really am yet." I reached over and touched his arm gently. He pulled away from me.
"I won't let you use me like some sexual test dummy to figure yourself out!" He yelled pretty loudly that time, I was pretty sure there were a few people staring.
I looked around and waited until people grew bored and went back to their own conversations.
"I can't say that I'm sure about myself Seto. But I am sure that I like you, and not in some experimental way. And I would really like to explore that. If you'll let me"
"I'm not going to start something unless you are absolutely sure that-"
"I told you I'm sure."
"..." He examined my face closely. Like he was checking for lies or something, "Ok, I believe you."
To tell the truth I really wasn't sure. It was impossible for me to be. But I really did want something to happen with Seto. After that we engaged in some average getting to know you questions. He would laugh at my occasional humorless joke, and I would pretend like his anime stuff was interesting. Nothing out of the ordinary until-
"Are you doing anything tonight." His voice was shaky, he was obviously nervous.
"Not really."
"So do you want to like grab something to eat maybe see a movie."
"Yeah sure why not."
"Cool. I'll pick you up at like 7."
"Ok but you don't know where I live."
"Oh yeah. Well here." He rooted around in his pocket before he handed me a piece of paper an a pen, "Write it down."
So I did, I handed him back the paper. He looked oddly excited.
"Thanks!" He neatly folded up the slip of paper and gently inserted it back into his pocket. Almost like it was fragile or priceless. The bell rang signifying the end of lunch.
"Ok I'll see you tonight Jou!" He smiled and bounded happily away.
"What is he so excited about?" Then I replayed the events back in my head. "A date?!" It felt odd. Not really that I was about to go on a date With Seto Kaiba or a guy for that matter. It was more odd that I was excited about it.
*****
Ok that's it for chapter 3. Now here's where we have a problem people, Most fan fiction writers will use there writing as leverage for reviews. You know If you don't review blah I wont post new chapters. And you see I really don't have that option seeing as though my stuff really isn't stellar. I would offer to pay you but I have no money. So pleeeeeeeeeeeease review! please or else... I'll be very sad. :(

So pleeeeeeeeeeeease review! please or else... I'll be very sad. :(
