He Belongs To Me

The day passed on quietly much to the teachers' surprise except for Mrs. Sononti. The infamous loudmouth Katsuya Jounouchi had not spoken a word.

Jou tapped his pen on his desk impatiently.

3:45pm.

6-5-4-3-2-1

RIIIIIIIING

Finally when the bell rung to dismiss the end of the day, Jou got up with Yugi and headed out.

While walking, the pair was silent.

Anzu was gone on the last period, for she had a dentist appointment, and Honda was stuck in detention, for flicking eraser pieces at the teacher. Ryou was absent, and Malik had gone home early to see his yami, Marik, who was "supposedly "sick.

Yugi bit his lower lip for he knew what Jou was thinking about.

" Jou..." Yugi started softly.

Jou turned his head to acknowledge Yugi.

" You know you're welcome at my house.. Anytime." said Yugi.

Jou closed his eyes almost painfully as he sighed deeply, shaking his head.

" That'll just put ya in danger Yug, somehow my father found out you were my best friend. Stayin' at your house will just cause more trouble than it's worth."

" You got that right," sneered an icy voice.

Give him a hand people, he got something right for once." Kaiba continued.

"K--Kaiba?" Jou stammered, " Why are you- H-how long have ya been listenin'?"

" Long enough." replied the cool voice.

" Leave him alone Kaiba," Yugi retorted. " He doesn't need you on his back also."

Kaiba ignored him

" Jee mutt, I wonder how long it'll be before your father comes to kill you, after I report him of course."

Jou gasped, that somehow shook him from his reverie.

"Shut up Kaiba. You don't know what it feels like."

" On the contrary mutt, I know better than you."

With that, Kaiba walked past Jou, his gravity defying trench coat swooshing behind him.

Jou started after him, fist in the air but Yugi caught him in time.

" Let it go Jou. He's not worth it,"

With his right hand, Yugi patted Jou's shoulder.

It took time before he calmed down.

Jou faced Yugi, slightly annoyed for stopping him.

Jou sighed. " You're right Yug. He's not worth it at all."

Jou gave Yugi a small smile, and seeing that Jou wouldn't go after Kaiba afterwards, Yugi reluctantly let go, returning a relieved smile.

Jou's right hand was still clenched in to a fist.

" I'll beat him Yug. I'll beat him in the tournament and make him sorry. That's what I'll do.

His eyes were hazed with shocking determination.

Jou blinked. " Hey, Yug um, I'm gonna go home this way k? I'll see ya tomorrow."

Yugi replied with a stern look, " You sure you'll be ok? Please come over. Grandpa wouldn't mind."

Jou smiled. " Nah. I'll be fine! See ya later Yugi."

With that last remark he trotted to the direction of the park.

Yugi watched the golden haired boy leave.

****

Jou sat on the dirty bench, which was covered with bird droppings, but nevertheless he went on concentrating on his deck.

He bit his lips and suppressed the urge to yell out in frustration.

His deck was powerful, he knew that, but it was no match against Kaiba's.

He flipped over one of the cards and came face to face with his most powerful card. The Red Eyes Black Dragon.

Even with Red Eyes, he still couldn't beat Kaiba. All because of his Blue Eyes.

If he just found out a way to destroy his Blue Eyes Ultimate.

He continued to chew his bottom lip.

Than it hit him.

He stood up and he dug into his pocket and searched for loose change.

His hand connected with a round, metal object that felt icy to his touch.

His face split into a wide grin.

He shoved his deck carefully into his other pocket and ran to the nearest pay phone.

He dialed.

A soft voice called out tiredly between pants. " . Hello?"

Jou arched an eyebrow

" Hey Ryou? It's Jounouchi."

" Oh hey Jounouchi. What is-"

Ryou was interrupted by a raspy voice that sounded like Bakura's.

" Get off the fucking phone!" yelled Bakura's voice from the background.

WE ARE A LITLL BIT BUSY!" added the voice.

Jou smirked.

He could actually hear Ryou blushing furiously.

"Uh, Ryou I have a favor to ask. Can I come over to the house."

" NO!!" Bakura yelled from the background once more.

Ryou laughed

"Sure. Give us 30 minutes to get ready. The house is a bit.. messy."

Jou smiled, hearing Bakura grumbling in the background about inviting interrupters to the house.

" Sure thing pal."

The line went dead.

**** Jou knocked on Ryou's door.

He could hear rustles of clothing being moved around and the door opened, revealing a flushed Ryou.

" Hey Ryou. I hope you're finished whatever you started."

Ryou blushed crimson.

" We couldn't BECAUSE OF YOU!"

" Hello to you too Bakura."

Jou waved at the messy haired boy who wore a disgusted expression.

Ryou rolled his eyeballs before smiling a sheepish grin.

"Come in."

Ryou gestured Jou.

After they were settling in cozily, Jou sitting on a leather couch, and Ryou on Bakura's lap, they started.

" You know about the tournament Kaiba is holding right?"

Bakura made a snort.

" You came here to tell us about that?"

"No wait, here me out will ya?" Jou said as he rolled his eyes.

Bakura snorted again.

"Kura! Be nice."

Ryou said as he pressed his lips softly on Bakura's cheek.

Bakura smirked in return and captured Ryou's mouth with his.

Jou cleared his throat to notice them that he still remained in the room.

Ryou parted his lips from his lover's to Bakura's dismay and smiled apologetically.

Bakura grunted and crossed his arms across his chest, his fingers drumming on his arm restlessly.

" I have a favor to ask you Ryou."

Bakura released an impatient sigh.

" You already said that, look, if you're going to repeat everything you said a few minutes ago over and over again, this is a total waste of time."

" Kura! If you be quiet for the rest of the meeting.. I'll make it up to you"

Bakura started a mix of satisfied, happy, and an evil grin.

" You will?"

" Uh uh uh!! Not a word, unless you have something useful to say."

Bakura huffed and clamped his mouth shut.

Jou grinned as he explained his idea.
