Author's Notes: This story is basically an ongoing collection of ficlets inspired by the LiveJournal community '15minuteficlets'. Each week, the moderators post one word and the writers get 15 minutes to write as much as they can.
One chapter will not relate to the next – each chapter title will contain the word given for that ficlet challenge. I always write SetoxJou ficlets. ;)
Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh or any of it's characters.
"I hate this place."
Kaiba shuffled his feet impatiently, grimacing at the black-and-white checkered tile inside the old ice cream parlor.
"…And extra sprinkles, please!"
He loved Jounouchi more than anything in the world, but he despised the ice cream parlor. They usually went on Friday nights, walking around town a bit and always stopping for an ice cream cone. Well – Jou stopped for an ice cream cone.
He watched as the short young woman behind the counter handed Jou a very large cone, complete with three scoops of chocolate ice cream and extra sprinkles.
"Thanks!" She smiled as Kaiba handed her a five-dollar bill, her blonde ponytail bouncing behind her.
Jou licked the ice cream carefully, following Kaiba out the door. He snaked an arm around Kaiba's waist and grinned. "Thanks for the ice cream."
"Not a problem," Kaiba smirked. "But Jou? You have sprinkles all over the side of your face."
Jou raised his eyebrows in question. "Really?" He licked the side of his mouth in an attempt to clean his face.
"No, it's more below your bottom lip."
Another lick.
"To the left, Jou. Right underneath your lip."
Another lick.
"The left."
Another lick.
"Oh, forget this."
Kaiba pulled Jou toward him, lifting his chin a bit and bringing his mouth toward Jou's. He slowly licked the extra sprinkles off Jou's lips, before kissing the boy. He was sweet, cool, from the ice cream.
Kaiba pulled away, tasting the sugary chocolate still fresh on his tongue. Jou smirked at him, replacing his arm around Kaiba's waist as they continued walking.
"Better?"
"Much."
