A/N: I don't own any part of Yu-Gi-Oh
What He Really Wants For Christmas
Kaiba sat back in the chair and sipped his hot chocolate thoughtfully. Pegasus had pulled up another chair (with Kaiba's help) and was sitting next to Kaiba in front of the fire. There was small wooden table in between them that Pegasus had set a pot of hot chocolate on as well as his bottle of wine.
"I haven't had hot chocolate this good since I was a kid," Kaiba mused. Pegasus smiled at the brow-haired boy.
"I'm glad to know you're enjoying it," Pegasus said with a small nod.
"Not to seem childish, but what do you want from Santa Claus?" Kaiba asked with a small chuckle. Pegasus laughed. He went silent for a while and pretended to be serious. All of a sudden he shouted,
"A PONY!" and leaned back into his chair as he went into hysterics. Kaiba nearly spit out his hot chocolate, but after he had swallowed it he joined Pegasus.
"Well, I want a pony, too! But I want a BLUE one!" Kaiba carried on the joke and kept laughing.
"They don't make blue ponies!" Pegasus said matter-of-factly as he kept up the joke. He and Kaiba laughed for a good ten minutes before they finally fell silent.
"I haven't laughed that hard in God knows how long," Kaiba sighed a smile still on his lips.
"Here, here," Pegasus said as he refilled his glass, "Not to change the subject, but don't you have a girlfriend that you could have spent Christmas Eve with?" Kaiba blushed.
"I haven't really found anyone yet," Kaiba said sheepishly.
"I see," Pegasus said. He bit his lip in thought for a moment before he got up and turned on the radio, "I never realized how late it was," Pegasus said as he walked back to his chair, "Its close to 11:30." Kaiba pulled out his cell phone and called Mokuba.
"Mokuba, I'm going to be home late tonight, maybe not until early morning. Are you going to be okay at home by yourself?" Kaiba asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, Seto," Mokuba said, "Can I have some friends over?"
"Aren't they supposed to be with their parents?" Kaiba asked.
"No, I was actually invited to spend the night here at Haku's house but you know how I get if I'm away from home for too long," Mokuba said sheepishly. Kaiba smiled.
"If it's all right with their parents, yes you can have some friends over. Just don't get to rowdy; I don't feel like cleaning up your mess at 3 in the morning," Kaiba explained.
"You're the BEST, Seto!" Mokuba said happily, "See you later!" There was a click on the other end of the line. Kaiba flipped his phone shut.
"Everything all right with your brother?" Pegasus asked. Kaiba nodded. The two card tycoons were quiet as the radio continued to play on. Soon, a very slow, romantic song began to play. Pegasus lit up and put his hand to his heart, "I LOVE this song!" Kaiba listened on. It was X-Japan's 'Say Anything.'
"It's a good song," Kaiba said. Pegasus's eyes were shut and there was a small smile on his face.
You say anything,
Whatever you like to say to me,
Say anything,
You leave me out of my eyes,
You say anything,
All I can hear is voice from dream,
Say anything,
You can dry my every tear
Pegasus sang along with the music. He looked over at Kaiba who was apparently feeling a little awkward due to the color on his cheeks. "I'm sorry I can stop singing if you want," Pegasus said as he put a hand behind his head.
"No, its okay. I just didn't think you'd have that good a voice," Kaiba smiled.
"Oh good, then I can keep going!" Pegasus said as he broke out in the middle of a verse
Close your eyes and,
I'll kill you in the rain.
Kirei ni koroshi aeba, (If a beautiful murder is fitting)
Zôka no bara ni umoreta, (The artificial rose is buried)
Shijin no namida wa, (Shedding tears of a poet in)
Kioku ni nagarasete.(The memories)
While Pegasus sang, Kaiba sat there mesmerized by what he heard. Pegasus sat in his chair, hand on his chest lightly, eyes shut.
Time may change my life,
But my heart remains the same to you.
Time may change your heart,
My love for you never changes.
You say anything,
Kitzutsuke au kotoba demo, (the fitting word blesses but)
Say anything,
Tachikirenai kokoro ni. (to the heart that cannot sever)
You say anything.....
Say anything...
Now you've gone away
Where can I go from here?
Say anything...
Say anything...
I believed if time passes, everything turns into beauty
If the rain stop, tears clean the scars of memory away.
Everything starts wearing fresh colors.
Every sound begins playing a heartfelt melody.
Jealousy embellishes a page of epic.
Desire is embraced in a dream
But my mind is still in chaos and...
The music began to fade out and Pegasus let out a sigh. Kaiba sat there in awe and just stared at Pegasus. Pegasus opened his eyes and smiled at Kaiba. Kaiba clapped a few times.
"Remind me to bring you if I ever go to a karaoke bar," Kaiba laughed quietly. Pegasus nodded.
"Will do," he said, "What did you think of the song?"
"It is a nice song," Kaiba said, "Great, now I'm going to have to buy the CD. Nice job, Pegasus, nice job!" Kaiba sighed and pretended to look frustrated.
"Should I take you home?" Pegasus asked.
"Why would you ask?" Kaiba questioned.
"I don't know. I'd be bored with me if all I did was sing," Pegasus stuck out his tongue.
"I'm not bored. I'm actually having a really nice night," Kaiba commented. Pegasus blinked.
"All right then...what to do now?" he asked himself. He snapped his fingers, "Right! I have a present for you!" Pegasus said happily. Kaiba blinked.
"A present? For me?" Kaiba asked with a raised eyebrow.
"And sorry, its not a pony," Pegasus winked. Kaiba laughed.
"Funny!" he shouted after Pegasus as he left the room. Kaiba looked out the window. The snowstorm was really picking up. "I'm glad Pegasus has four-wheel drive," Kaiba thought. All of a sudden, the lights flickered and were soon out. Kaiba sighed exasperatedly. Kaiba listened as another song came on the radio. It was Utada Hikaru's 'First Love.' Kaiba suddenly thought of how graceful Pegasus had looked as he sat in the chair next to him and sang. Kaiba shook his head. "What are you doing! He's a guy, you're a guy, DO THE MATH, SETO!" Kaiba mentally scolded himself. "But still...he is pretty handsome..." Kaiba sighed. "This is insane," he whispered to himself. Kaiba let himself fall into the music. As he listened to the tune, Kaiba's mind began to wander. All of a sudden Kaiba thought, "I wonder what it would be like to be kissed by him..." With a loud 'ACK!' Kaiba fell out of his chair. Pegasus waltzed into the room.
"Sorry it took me so long to find your gift! I had to root through-! Seto! Are you all right? Here, let me help you," Pegasus placed Kaiba's gift on the small wooden table between the chairs as he extended a hand out for Kaiba to grab. Kaiba held Pegasus's hand for a moment before he pushed himself back up. As he went to stand, Kaiba lost his balance and fell into Pegasus's arms. Kaiba gasped when he realized the position he was in. "Maybe you're a little more tired than I thought," Pegasus said gently. Kaiba looked up at him. Pegasus was truly a sight to behold. His silver hair was tied back gracefully in a loose ponytail, but he still hid half of his face with it. His red sweater complimented the shades of amber in Pegasus's only visible eye. Pegasus's black dress pants also made his legs look a lot longer.
Pegasus smiled gently down at Kaiba. Kaiba was blushing slightly. Before he knew what he was doing, Kaiba had straightened and had placed a tender hand on the side of Pegasus's face. Pegasus turned his lips into Kaiba's palm and placed a soft kiss upon it. Pegasus reached up and covered Kaiba's hand with his own. "I don't want to give you a gift you don't want, Seto Kaiba. So, let me ask you...what is it you REALLY want for Christmas?" Kaiba looked at the older man, a slight gloss to his sapphire eyes. Kaiba tossed his chocolate brown hair and stood up faintly on his tiptoes to reach Pegasus's ear.
"Just a kiss," Kaiba whispered lustfully. He pulled away from Pegasus's ear and eagerly awaited his response. Pegasus wrapped his arms around Kaiba and dipped him.
"Merry Christmas, Seto Kaiba," Pegasus whispered. Kaiba could feel Pegasus's breath on his lips. Kaiba slowly shut his eyes as Pegasus met his lips with his own. The brunette carefully wrapped his arms around Pegasus's neck and unconsciously deepened the kiss. Pegasus gently lowered Kaiba to the floor and kneeled above him, never once breaking the kiss. Pegasus's ponytail slipped over his shoulder as he kissed Kaiba. Kaiba couldn't believe what was happening. Neither could Pegasus, for that matter. Both were wrapped up in the arms of the man they had been infatuated with since their first meeting. Pegasus gently pulled away from the kiss. Kaiba whimpered faintly in protest. Pegasus looked down at Kaiba; his cheeks were flushed and his eyes seemed smokier and more intense than they had been. Pegasus was the same. Slightly flushed with a passionate look in his eye. "I need to get you home, Seto," Pegasus said painfully. Kaiba sighed.
"All good things must come to an end, I suppose," he said as Pegasus helped him to his feet.
"I'll get your coat for you," Pegasus said as he disappeared into the closet. Kaiba stood by the door replaying the moment that had just unfolded itself. He kept touching his lips, as if he thought that everything had only been a dream. Pegasus helped the somewhat dazed Kaiba into his peacoat. Pegasus grabbed his coat and car keys and opened the door for Kaiba. The two climbed into the car and waited for it to heat up.
The car ride was quiet. All you could hear was the car engine and the heater clicking softly. Once outside Kaiba's mansion, Pegasus parked the car.
"Thanks for tonight. It was a lot better than I thought it would be," Kaiba smiled shyly, recalling very vividly what had happened only moments ago. Pegasus smiled back at him, inwardly thrilled at Kaiba's submissiveness. Kaiba opened the car door and walked around the front of the car. He fished his keys out of his coat pocket. Pegasus walked him to the door.
"I'm glad you enjoyed yourself," Pegasus said as he grabbed a hold of Kaiba's hand. Kaiba smiled.
"Me, too," he responded as he gave their hands a little swing. Pegasus looked at Kaiba longingly. Kaiba shyly kissed Pegasus softly again. The two embraced on the front porch of the Kaiba mansion. Both pulled away, cheeks stained anew.
"Can I call you tomorrow?" Pegasus asked.
"Please," Kaiba said as he unlocked the door. Both Pegasus and Kaiba were reluctant to let go of on another's hands. But gently their fingers unwound themselves and Kaiba watched somewhat sadly as Pegasus drove off. "Merry Christmas," Kaiba whispered as he hung up his scarf.
