Disclamier: Don't own. Don't sue.
Seto sat in the front seat of his sleek sports car all by his lonesome, listening to the rambling conversation that was going on behind him, and trying to ignore the irritating noise his brother called 'music' that was playing on the radio
"This is going to be so much fun!" exclaimed Mokuba as he bounced up and down on his seat.
"This is supposed to be the biggest one in Domino right? I've never been there before! This is SO cool!" Jou started bouncing along with Mokuba.
"I swear, I feel like I'm with TWO twelve year olds..." Seto remarked as he flipped on his signal light, turning into the empty parking lot.
"You'll love this place, there's like a shit load of rides and games there!"
"Mokuba!" Seto scolded as he heard the foul language come out of his innocent little brother's mouth.
"Er...sorry Seto! So Jou, you sure you don't mind me intruding on you and Seto's date?"
"What do you mean, why should I care?" Seto didn't miss the light blush that stained the blond cheeks as he watched him through the rear-view mirror. He had to smirk at that.
"Allright then!" Mokuba hopped out of the car and raised his fist in the air. "Let's go kick some video game ass!!"
"Bitchin'!" Jou exclaimed as he high-fived Mokuba and the two went running inside before Seto could do anything.
"Why do I keep thinking this was a mistake?" Seto shook his head as he followed the two inside.
* * *
Jou and Mokuba stood in the entrance, gaping at the flashing lights and listening to the beeps and cheesy techno music. They we're the only two people there, with the exception of Seto, who had just walked in behind them.
"Seto...nobody is here...are you sure it's open?" Mokuba looked over his shoulder at his older brother who didn't seemed to look nearly as shocked as he was.
"That's because I had this place closed down for the night. That way we can have it all to ourselves and not have to worry about all the little brats that are usually here." Seto replied as if it was the easiest thing to do in the world. He almost got the wind knocked out of him as he was glomped from two different angles. One around he knees and the other around his neck.
"Wow Seto! I can't believe it! This is going to be so much fun!!" Mokuba cried from underneath him. Seto was more distracted by the blond mop that was underneath his chin. He could almost swear he smelt strawberries. The blond must use scented shampoo, who knew?
"Dude this is so awesome!" Jou exclaimed as he lifted his head, looking up at Seto's blank expression. He quickly blushed and pulled away as he realized how close they were.
"I'm sorry I'm late!" A young woman with long silky hair came rushing through the door towards the trio. "I had a little trouble finding the place..."
"Shizuka?" Jou sounded both happy and confused as he watched his younger sister walk up to him and pull him into a tight hug.
"Oh Jou, I've missed you! I've been seeing you all over TV! Anyway, Seto invited me to come here tonight, said it was a surprise for you! Isn't that sweet Jou? Jou?"
Jou just stared at his sister for a moment before turning head towards Seto. "Seto...this is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me...I..." Seto's heart caught in his throat Jou gazed up at him with the softest puppy-dog brown eyes. He was hard pressed not to throw him down on the air-hockey table and take him right there. Considering who their audience was, he figured it wasn't really a good idea. Still, it would have been a nice story to tell their grand children.
Seto cleared his throat as he snapped himself out of his dirty little daydream. "It was nothing..." Seto waved his hand dismissively but Jou caught it in his own, linking their fingers together.
"Thank you." Jou shuddered as he felt Seto's slightly cool finger tips brush over his the back of his hand. Seto just nodded his head, giving Jou's hand a gentle squeeze, trying to ignore the feeling that was creeping up on him, one that scared him to death. Goddamn emotions.
And so the foursome headed off into the mass of flashing computer screens and glowing neon lights, ready to spend the night burning away brain cells by form of video games.
* * *
Mokuba and Shizuka seemed to hit it off very well, they were currently playing a round of Dance Dance Revolution. Seto and Jou just stood there looking at them like they had gone crazy. It was supposed to be some sort of dance game, but it looked more like they we're having epileptic seizures than anything else.
When the fast beat techno song ended, the two stepped off panting and sweating slightly.
"Wow Shizuka, you're really good!" Mokuba said before he began chugging down a water bottle.
"Thanks, Anzu taught me how." Shizuka smiled.
"Oh yeah, she's a dancer right?"
"Mm-hmm!"
"You actually call that dancing?" Seto spoke up.
"Oh...and I suppose you're the expert on dancing right Seto?" Jou smirked and grabbed Seto by the elbow, leading him over towards the dance machine.
"Well..." Seto seemed surprised at Jou's behavior was the puppy trying to flirt?
"Dance with me."
"This is stupid..." Seto shook his head and shrugged Jou off as he tried to rest his arms on his shoulders.
"You can't dance can you?" Jou's grin widened, he was eager to find something that the all mighty Seto Kaiba wasn't good at, and he had a feeling this was it.
"I assure you, I can dance." Seto stated simply but turned away none the less when Jou tried to pull him into another embrace.
"Hey guys! What's the hold up?" Mokuba called out, him and his new friend already heading off in a new direction, towards the laser-tag arena.
"Leave it alone puppy." Seto commanded as Jou opened his mouth to argue again. He walked off towards his brother's direction leaving behind a pouting mutt.
* * *
"Alright so it's me and Seto against you and Jou." Mokuba said as he strapped on the laser tag armor. It was a chest plate with sensors on it that was supposed to light up and vibrate when you got hit, and it was practically falling off of him.
"Yup." Shizuka reached around to Mokuba's back, trying to adjust the strap so it would fit better.
Jou pulled a laser gun off the wall and spun it expertly in his hand. "Well Seto, since you've kicked my ass at every game we've played tonight, I plan on paying you back with this."
"Oh really, care to up the stakes?" Seto raised his eyebrow as Jou tried his trick again and fumbled it, sending the plastic weapon to the floor.
"What do you mean?" Jou asked as he picked up the object off the floor, trying not to look too embarrassed.
"A bet."
"I don't know if I like the sound of that..." Jou didn't entirely trust the competitive look that shown in Seto's eyes. The guy was damn right scary when he was out to win something.
"How about this, if your team wins, I'll dance with you." Seto saw Jou's eyes light up at that and then cloud over with worry.
"But...what happens if you win?" Jou spoke, almost afraid to ask.
"You will the spend the night at my house."
Jou was expecting something like, 'if I win you have to dress up in a dog costume and let me lead you around town in a leash', then he forgot that he wasn't dealing with Otogi. As he weighed his options he realized both outcomes would be good. Having an intimate dance with Seto, or sleeping over the Kaiba mansion? But he still wanted to win, if only to satisfy his ego.
"Alright it's a deal." Jou and Seto shook hands before stepping into the dark and mysterious abyss of the battlefield.
* * *
"Alright, Shizuka, we'll split up. You take the top floor, and I'll search the bottom."
"Sure thing!" She gave her brother a thumbs up before disappearing into the mist that flooded the place.
"Give em' hell!" Jou called out to her retreating form before setting off on his own journey. The pumping music made his pulse race as he continued down the maze-like twist and turns. Keeping low, Jou pressed his back against a wall, checking his surrounding before he made the next turn. Determining that is was safe to continue, Jou tuned into the dark hallway, the only source of light being from the various laser lights, and the strobe that went off every once in a while.
He jumped slightly as he thought he saw something move out of the corner or his eye, but shook it off and continued, his gun poised and ready.
That was until he was pressed quite forcibly against the wall, the wind rushing out of his lungs as his weapon went flying out of his hand.
"Ow, shit!"
"Shh, quiet puppy." A voice whispered in his ear, giving him shivers as the hot air caressed his skin.
"Seto?" Jou's eyes went wide as he realized who had him pressed face first against a rather uncomfortable wall. "What are you doing?"
"I could have already taken you out by now, but I thought it was much more amusing to stalk you."
"You're freaky..."
Seto smirked as he took the blonde's arm and turned him around, looking down at his puppy with a predatory look in his eyes.
"Why aren't you shooting me then?" Jou asked as Seto loomed over him, wearing a smirk that he wasn't too comfortable with.
"Because I've got you right where I want you..." Seto's words trailed off as he fisted his hands in the perfect blonde locks, leaning down for a searing kiss.
Jou gasped out as Seto dominated his mouth, it wasn't anything like they're first kiss. He reached up and gripped the back of Seto's shirt with one hand, tying to steady himself, and tangled his other hand in the stoic man's hair.
Jou whimpered as Seto snaked one hand underneath his shirt, lightly stroking the small of his back, and he suddenly cursed the chest plates that they had on as they were beginning to get in the way.
It felt so damn good...and weird at the same time. Jou couldn't describe it, he felt all weird and fuzzy.
Seto pulled away, leaving Jou panting, and looked down at him with a strange expression on his face. "You're vibrating."
Jou merely blinked for a moment, not being able to think properly after what just happened. "I'm...what?"
Jou looked down to see that his chest plate was blinking bright red and he realized then that's what was making him feel so strange. Besides the sexy CEO that had him pinned against a wall.
"Shit!" Jou cursed as his head snapped up to see Mokuba on the second level, shooting down laser beams at him.
"Why don't you two love-birds pay attention to the game!" Mokuba yelled down as he continued to deplete Jou's life points.
* * *
"So...Do you think Jou would make a better summer bride, or winter bride?" Mokuba tapped his chin in mock consideration.
"Shut up already, will ya? We're not getting married!" Seto chuckled as he watched Jou's face heat up. Mokuba had been teasing him for a good fifteen minutes after he caught the two in the middle of their steamy make out session.
"Aw, Mokuba, stop teasing Jou he's blushing!" Shizuka tried to help her brother out.
"Blushing bride! Blushing bride!" Mokuba pointed at Jou and laughed, ducking out of the way before he was thwacked in the head.
"Allright kids, let's behave." Seto unlocked the doors to his car with the click of a button and they all piled in.
They dropped off Shizuka first, her brother giving her a hug goodbye and Mokuba promising they would hand out again soon. Then they arrived at Jou's house.
"I had a great time, goodnight Seto..." Jou yawned and went to get out of the car before Seto spoke up.
"What are you talking about mutt? You're just here to pick up your overnight stuff."
"What?"
"Don't tell me you've already forgotten our little bet. You lost, and now you're coming home with me."
Jou gulped and nodded. Was there a word for feeling excited and scared shitless at the same time? He'd have to look it up in the dictionary when he got a chance.
Satanic Mechanic: Oh yea, lemon next chapter, as I'm sure you can imagine. It'll be hard for me to do, but I'll try and make it as non-horrible as possible. Byes!!
Seto sat in the front seat of his sleek sports car all by his lonesome, listening to the rambling conversation that was going on behind him, and trying to ignore the irritating noise his brother called 'music' that was playing on the radio
