W00t! I am PUMPED! I got a TON of reviews! THANK YOU! I actually thought a I lost my readers because I was gone so long! Most of them came Sunday and Monday. Its funny because, its 8:30am MONDAY right now. Are you guys insomniacs too or do you just like my story THAT much. (FYI: I would have wrote this earlier today if I hadn't have FINALLY gotten my "Fake" manga book #7 "aka" the ONLY one rated 'M' -snicker- Woah this is getting long. Before I start up Chapter 10, I MUST give mad props to Chibified Raven for being such a hardcore fan of this story! I'll TRY to read your fics sometime this week! -has summer classes starting tomorrow- And I might not be able to put Malik in this one (sorry) but your review gave me an idea! How would you like an OtogixMalik fic?! Maybe even as a "brother" to this one? Okay, NOW ON TO THE FIC!

Cupid's the One to Blame

Chapter 10

"That Can't Be Good For Your Braincells"

Groggy and suffering a severe case of dejavu, Jou opened his eyes, finding himself in yet another unfamiliar room. Although this time the bed was MUCH more comfortable. Where am I? He wondered looking around, slowly sitting up, the minor pain in his shoulders immeadiately answering the question, Oh no.

"MORNING SUNSHINE!!!" came the high pitched shout of a certain prepubecent boy as he launched himself on to the bed.

"Gah!" Jou gasped, suprisingly holding off a heartattack. "MOKUBA! WHAT THE FUCK?!"

"Glad to see your headache is gone, grouch." Mokuba grumbled, crossing his legs and mock-glareing at Jou.

Jou growled, having the sudden urge to throttle the young, raven haired brat. Mokuba snickered.

"Be careful," He warned, shakeing a finger slowly in front of Jous nose. " You might pass out again, and Seto would miss all the fun."

Jou blinked. "What are you talkin' about?"

Mokuba giggled. "It's funny to watch!"

"You've finally gone psycho. All these years with Seto, it's melted your mind..." Jou even looked slightly paranoid, half-expceting Mokuba to come at him weilding an icepick.

The younger raised a brow at him. "Looks whos talking."

"Yea? Well I don't see whats so fucking entertaining about me going into a mini-coma..."

"Well," Mokuba grinned. "First your eyes go all weird and roll into the back of your head." He demonstrated, terribly, looking more like a drug addict. "Then you twitch a little." He demonstrated this to, a 'little' twitch turned into a full body convulsion. "And finally, you just sorta, fall over." Yes, this example was shown as well , resulting once again with Mokuba dropping to the floor with a loud -THUD-.

Jou remained silent for a moment, before bursting into manic laughter.

"THAT WASN'T FUNNY!" Came the floored boy's cry which only instigated more hysteric laughter from Jou. "You're right Mokuba! If that's what REALLY happens when I pass out then by all means, LAUGH YOUR ASS OFF!" Jou giggled out.

"I don't think I want you around my brother anymore," came the unexpected, cool voice of Seto from the doorway. "It's pretty odd seeing how you tend to throw him to the ground everytime."

"Yea, he might get jealous." Mokuba snickered from the floor.

Both teenagers stared at him, a bit surprised.

"What?!" He defended. "I'm ALLOWED to have an imagination!"

Seto covered his face with his hand, as Jou blushed extra bright, eyes wide.

"Out." Seto pointed to the door. "Go play video games or something."

"Hehe..." Mokuba chuckled, scrambling out of the room.

"That kid sometimes..." Seto groaned, walking over to Jou.

"Your little brother is quite the...um..." Jou's blush deepened, having the sudden urge to hide under the blanket.

"Perv... a crafty, witty, perv..." Seto sighed, sitting on the end of the bed. "I knew putting him in Sex Ed would come back to haunt me."

Jou chuckled. "Well, at least hes a well rounded perv."

Seto smirked and looked at Jou with those pretty blue eyes. The blonde felt himself melt inside, which all things considered, was exciting and bizarre. He continued staring into those depths forever. Okay, so maybe until Seto lightly smacked him upside the head.

"Earth to puppy..."

Jou blinked and came back to reality. "Huh? Wha-? Oh, hi Seto!" The brunette CEO sweatdropped. "You're so weird sometimes Jou."

That blush crept back. He couldn't understand, his friends called him weird all the time, why did it feel so special when Seto said it? His insides got fluttery as his, wait, what WAS Seto to him anyway? He really didn't have time to think that out, what with the going unconsious at random. Was he his boyfriend now? More butterflies. He liked the sound of that.

"How are you feeling, pup?" his BOYFRIEND asked.

"I-I'm good." Jou managed, despite the mad tremble of emotion inside him. "My shoulders ache a little but they feel a lot better."

Seto nodded. "That's good. The police called while you were sleeping."

"Huh?" Jou froze, confused.

"They want to know if you want to take Otogi to court. He got out on bail early this morning.I'll pay if you want to." He looked at Jou, completely concerned.

Jou shook his head, smiling lightly and looking into his lap. "Even if he's got some problems, I don't think taking him through the courts will help."

"But what if he comes after you again?" Seto's voice came out a little panicked.

"He won't." Jou was confident. "He's learned from his mistake, I just know it. I trust him. And besides," He gently grabbed ahold of Seto's closest hand, rubbing his thumbs over the skin lightly. "I'm a big boy, I was just a little off guard that day, anyother time he would have been begging for death." He laughed a little. "And, I'll always have my sneaky boyfriend there as back up."

Seto chuckled and brought Jou's hand to his lips, giving it a soft kiss. "Yes, you will."

Okay, I think one more chapter and this story will be finished. I still need to tie up some lose ends, like if and how Jou's going to move in with Seto permanantly. I'm also going to do a "brother" fic to go along with this one from Otogi's POV. But I might turn that one into an Otogi/Malik romance, it all depends on your opinions, ESPECIALLY ChibifiedRaven's. Get reviewing, my loveslaves!
