Ya! Momo updated again! Well as usual thanks for all the reviews and I have to admit a few of them made me laugh…Also I'm not sure but I think some of them posted Saturday got lost and I never got to read them, and fanfiction is never gonna post them, but don't worry! I still have love for you all too!
Anyho I'm not sure if any of you have noticed, then again I guess I do remember a few of you pointing out that this story really isn't about a love triangle. It's more like a love square…I even drew out a picture of all the connections and it actually made a square, but be that as it may, the title of my story was not a mistake.
You see one thing I like the most about writing a story is making up the title of it. It's Momo's way of being semi-witty and creative. So for those of you who wondered there's a logical reason as to why this fic is called a 360-Degree Bermuda Love Triangle. You see as I mentioned this story is more about a love square then a love triangle. Now I have to admit that when it comes to all subjects of school math is my worse one, however I do vaguely remember two things. When you add up all the angles of a triangle it is equal to 180 degrees, and when you add up all the sides of a square it equals 360 degrees!
Okay so now you're asking me why not call it a 360-degree love square? Well for all you geography majors or people who are just interested in the supernatural, there's a place out in the ocean that is called the Bermuda Triangle. I'm not too familiar with it, but from what I heard it's like one of the unknown wonders of the world where ships and people often get lost, never to return again. Ouuu scarrie! Now don't worry our boys won't be trapped on that island forever they'll just be there long enough to succumb to mystical powers of the Bermuda Triangle aka Momo's Bermuda 'Love' Triangle.
So put it together and what do you got? If anyone said bibiddy bobiddy boo…then I suppose I'm not alone…err I mean you're wrong! Put together a love square and the Bermuda Triangle, and what you get is a really witty fic title. So there! Momo is not a complete twit! Now on with the show!
Disclaimer: I don't Yugioh or any of it's characters, however I am in the process of cloning all the characters ::EVIL GRIN::. So far the best thing I got is a stupid looking sheep and a little yellow rodent that can only say the word "Pikaboo." Hey you deformed rabbit it's "Pikachu!" PI-KA-CHU, not Pikaboo!!!!
A 360-Degree Bermuda Love Triangle
Chp5 Gone Fishin
Two honey eyes widened, as the boy remained completely frozen and dazed. Finally Yami released his hold on Jonouchi and pulled away with a smirk. After a few moments of brutal silence passed, Jonouchi finally opened his mouth and panted out. "Yami…that was totally disgusting!"
Yami merely shrugged in response as he got up off of Jonouchi's lap and chuckled. "I mean the next time you go off and do something like that, you think you can warn a guy." Continued Jonouchi as he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.
"Please don't be stupid Jou." Drawled Yami as he rolled his eyes away from his fuming friend. "You know I really didn't have much of a choice but to do it that way, considering the limited resources that I had to work with. You should at least be thankful that I was kind enough to do that for you. I mean swappin spit with you was no picnic for me either."
"I know, but gods…" Exclaimed Jonouchi as he still seemed to be in a state of shock. "The next time you don't got a cup available, I think I'd rather just go thirsty."
"Hmm…and here I thought it was a seemingly innocent and thoughtful gesture…" Frowned Yami as he stared down at his feet. "Unorthodox perhaps, but I only did it because I was worried about you."
Jonouchi gave the spirit a helpless smile before he stood up next to his friend and laid a hand on his shoulder. "Aww, now well it really wasn't all that bad, and I was kind of thirsty sittin out in this hot sun, so thanks for the water Yami…I guess I was just a little surprised…that's all, but hell it could have been worse…a lot worse…so I guess what I'm saying is if it was anybody but you…I would have been worried…and creeped out."
"What if it was Yugi?" Questioned Yami so quickly Jonouchi couldn't do anything but blink back at him questionably before he finally registered in his head what was just said.
"YUGI!?!?" Exclaimed Jonouchi just before he broke into a fit of laughter. "Yugi would never do a thing like that!?! He is way too shy…heh, he'd just mistake it for an indirect kiss or something, and then it would take me weeks to convince him otherwise!"
Yami grew silent as he redirected his gaze towards the floor and bit the inside of his cheek. "…Jonouchi…"
"Ya Yami?" Sniffed Jonouchi as he wiped away a few tears of laughter.
"I have to admit I am a little disappointed…" Continued Yami quietly.
"Eh?" Blinked Jonouchi as he tilted his head much in the way a confused puppy would.
"What with the way you run at the mouth, I thought for sure you'd be a much skilled kisser!" Smirked Yami devilishly.
"Hey now! You caught me off guard!" Protested Jonouchi. "I'm a damn good kisser. You want me to prove it to you."
"No…I'm fine." Nodded Yami as he backed away from the appraoching blonde, and waved his hands defensively into the air. "I've never doubted your…abilities before."
Jonouchi grinned at Yami's choice of words before he roughly patted the spirit on the back and walked off with a laugh. "Hey. You're loss."
**************************************************
"Eh…Yam…err Yugi?" Questioned Seto as he laid a hand on the boy's shoulder.
"K-kaiba?" Yawned Yugi as he rubbed his sleep clouded eyes. "When did you get back?"
"I didn't." Stated Seto sharply. "It would seem your Yami and you have switched places. Which I'm ready to believe was his intentions from the start."
"Oh?" Blinked Yugi as he staggered to his feet. "Why would Yami do that?"
"I guess he figured you were too sick to walk here on your own, but he wanted you to be near plenty of water, considering you're health, which I guess does make sense."
"Yami…" Trailed Yugi as he listened to Kaiba words and clutched the sennen puzzle around his neck. His eyes then widened as he finally noticed the large lagoon in front of him. "Wow! It's really beautiful! It sort of something you see in those brochures for vacations in Hawaii!"
"Tch. What an over rated place." Retorted Seto.
"You've been there before?" Questioned Yugi as his eyes widened with awe.
"Enough times, but their economy is so crappy, I decided not to invest too much there." Muttered Seto haughtily.
"That is so cool." Beamed Yugi, as he didn't seem to be paying full attention to Seto's remarks.
"Heh…Mr. Easily amused." Muttered Seto pompously.
Yugi didn't respond, as he merely decided to ignore all of Seto's insults and get himself a drink. Everyone had their own way of dealing with Kaiba. Yami usually out witted him, Jonouchi argued with him, and Yugi humored him. Either way, all three boys were experts at working Seto's nerves. It was for that reason the brunet was utterly amazed as to how three completely different people could be such good friends.
Seto though was soon pulled from his thoughts as a loud splashing sound sounded the air.
"Yugi! What happened!?!" Shouted Seto as he realized Yugi had fallen into the lake.
Yugi flailed around in the water for a few seconds before he finally woke from his shock and stared back as Seto sheepishly. "I dunno…all the sudden I just doze off and then well…" Yugi lowered his head and blushed as Seto continued to stare at him incredulously.
"Your condition is worse then I thought…I mean just randomly losing consciousness like that is not a very good sign." Sighed Seto as he walked over towards the edge of the water and held out his hand. He was then surprised for the third time that day as he nearly fell forward into the water.
"What are you doing!?!" Shouted Seto as Yugi began to unfasten the buckles on his shirt and collar.
"What do you think? Since I'm already in here I mine as well go for a swim." Shrugged Yugi, as though the answer were so obvious.
"We don't have time for swimming!?!" Exclaimed Seto.
"Sure we do. Not unless there was something else we needed to do?" Stated Yugi flatly as he finally managed to get his shirt off and was now working on his shoes and socks.
"B-but…don't you feel sick?" Stammered Seto, as for some reason he couldn't take his eyes off the half naked boy, and was completely mortified for not being able to do so.
Yugi paused for a moment from his strip show before he shrugged and laughed. "Well…a little, but I'm starting to feel better, besides I'm burning up and the water is helping me cool down!"
"But you're clothes…" Blurted Seto just as Yugi tossed his pants to the ground near Seto's feet.
"They'll dry." Shrugged Yugi. He then tilted his head towards Seto, and frowned at the gaping brunet. "…Kaiba…what's the problem?"
"My problem is that we are stranded on a deserted island for Ra knows how long, and you are too concerned about playing in the water to even care." Cried Seto, as his voice nearly cracked.
"Oh I'm very concerned about that too, but I've always dreamed of visiting a place like this?" Replied Yugi as he gave Seto one of his winning smiles. This face always worked on Yami, so why not try his luck with Kaiba.
"Fine. Do whatever." Groaned Seto, as the puppy dog expression Yugi was now giving him won Kaiba over, although Seto would die before admitting it.
"Come on Kaiba, aren't you feeling hot too? Why don't you join me?"
Seto raised a brow to Yugi slowly, before he finally snorted and let out a disheartened laugh. "The fever must be making you delirious, because I think you just asked me to join you."
"I just feel bad that Yami and Jonouchi aren't here." Sighed Yugi as he once again ignored Seto's response. "Maybe you're right…I don't have time to be enjoying myself while their both suffering…Hey Kaiba…would you mind handing me my shoes?"
"I knew you had more sense than I thought." Smirked Seto as he knelt down and attempted to hand Yugi his shoes. He was however suddenly taken off guard as Yugi clamped down onto his arm and used all his body weight to pull Seto forward.
"YUGI!" Thundered the now water drenched Seto angrily. "What the HELL is wrong with you."
"Oh come on Seto. I just figured your hot head needed to cool down a bit."
Seto glared icicles through Yugi, causing the smaller boy to shudder and swim away.
"Or maybe I was wrong."
"I have the right mind to kill you where you stand…" Growled Seto just before a huge wave of water splashed him in the face.
Seto kept his eyes firmly shut as he began to tremble with rage at the now giggling Yugi. "That's only if you can catch me."
"I refuse to resort to such childish-" Seto was once again rudely interrupted as a large ball of water was sent hurdling down his throat. After couching and hacking for a few moments, Seto finally opened his eyes and glared at the grinning Yugi.
"THAT'S IT!" Thundered Seto as raced towards Yugi, whose eyes were now bulging out like a deer who had just got caught in the headlights of Seto's limo.
At first patronizing Seto into loosening up seemed like a good idea, but now Yugi wasn't sure what to expect as he barely dodged Seto's hands. However, his worries were soon alleviated, as he turned towards Seto and noticed a small playful smile on the taller boy's face. Seto was so preoccupied with repaying Yugi his favor; he didn't seem to notice that he was actually enjoying himself.
Yugi was then pulled from his thoughts as Seto caught the musing boy and dunked him into the water. Yugi pulled out of the water and coughed before he stopped and gave Seto a deathly serious look.
Seto immediately halted from his attempt at dunking Yugi yet again, and blinked back at the boy. "Yugi…what's wrong?"
"Kaiba…I think I saw something…" Started Yugi just before he took a huge gulp of air and dove back underwater. Seto blushed at this, as he wasn't sure what Yugi was up to. However, after more then several moments had passed, the brunet began to panic, as he debated on whether to go in after Yugi.
But just before Seto was about to dive in he was rudely smacked in the chest by a large piece of wood. "Opps…sorry Kaiba." Laughed Yugi weakly, as he appeared from out of the water.
"Yugi what is this?" Questioned Seto as he pushed the bulky object out of his face.
"I think it a piece of a tree trunk. I found it after you dunked me, it was tangled in some weeds." " Answered Yugi as he examined the object intently.
"Yeah, so…" Drawled Seto impatiently.
"Well I think we could use this Kaiba, because look." Yugi held the trunk closer to Seto's face, revealing it's awkward shape. "It's shaped almost like a bucket, so maybe we can use it to bring some water back to Yami and Jonouchi."
"Hmm…I think you're right." Smirked Seto as he took the piece a wood away from Yugi and tapped on it.
"Well then let's get going." Beamed Yugi as he began to swim back towards the edge of the lake.
"I don't know Yugi…maybe you shouldn't be walking in your condition. I promised Yami that I'd-"
"But I'm feeling much better Kaiba." Cut in Yugi as he nodded his head reassuringly. "The water really helped. Don't worry about it."
Seto narrowed his eyes on Yugi, but was once again met with Yugi's puppy dog face. "…fine."
******************************************
Seto silently growled under his breath has he felt his irritation rise. 'I don't have time for this…'
"Kaiba!" Called out Yugi.
'Why is it that I get paired up with the shortest possible person in this pathetic little group!?!'
"Please Kaiba…can you slow down!" Exclaimed Yugi as he finally caught up with Seto. He then bent over and panted heavily as he tried to catch his breath. To Yugi's distress his shorter legs were of no match to Seto's own towering ones. "I'm sorry Kaiba…" Apologized Yugi as he stared back at Seto solemnly. "But I can't keep up…could you walk a little slower…"
"Why do I have to walk slower? Can't you walk a little faster!?!" Snapped Seto.
"…okay…I'll try." Whispered Yugi as he lowered his head shamefully towards the ground.
Seto slightly winced at this, as he never expected Yugi to agree so easily. He also had to admit that he didn't mean to be so harsh. Then again Seto was not about to argue with the smaller duelist, as he merely shrugged and walked away.
However, Seto subconsciously took smaller steps figuring a little leniency wouldn't kill him. 'Sure Yugi is shorter then me…but I never remember him having trouble keeping up with me before…I mean Mokuba doesn't and he's just a little shorter then Yugi!'
Seto's question was soon answered as he heard a loud thud behind him. He then quickly turned around and cursed when he realized what had happened.
"Yugi!" Exclaimed Seto as he knelt beside the fallen boy.
"Umm…I'm sorry." Murmured Yugi faintly as he attempted to sit up.
"No wonder you were having trouble keeping up. You are too weak from being sick to walk. Why didn't you say something?" Questioned Seto crossly.
Yugi lowered his eyes away from Seto apologetically as he finally whispered out. "I didn't because I wanted to help out."
"Do you really think passing out, and worsening your health is helping out?" Frowned Seto.
"…I'm sorry…" Trailed Yugi as he continued to stare at the ground.
"Dammit stop apologizing. Being sick isn't your fault!" Shouted Seto, obviously irritated by Yugi's selflessness. It wasn't that he was mad Yugi cared about contributing so much, what really pissed Seto off was how Yugi constantly compromised himself in order to help others. Why couldn't Yugi think about himself for a change? Yugi's caring nature was a part of the boy Seto both admired and hated, and right now it was irritating the hell out of him.
"…but-"
"Don't but me…" Interrupted Seto harshly. Yugi immediately winced at the rise in Kaiba's tone, causing the brunet to feel even guiltier about the situation. He then stood up, let out a frustrated breath, and waited for his head to clear before he made Yugi feel any worse. "Err…come on!"
"Kaiba?" Exclaimed Yugi incredulously as Seto bent down and turned his back to him.
"…If you really want to see your stupid friends so badly then I'll…I'll carry you…" The last words strained out of Seto's mouth as he struggled to hold back an oncoming blush.
"What!?! No I couldn't let you do that!" Blurted Yugi as he failed to suppress his own crimson cheeks.
"I do what ever the hell I want because I want to, not because you let me. Now get on!" Demanded Seto as he grabbed Yugi's arm and pulled the boy onto his back.
"But…" Started Yugi, before a pair of fierce azure eyes shot up at him. "Fine…"
After firmly securing Yugi, Seto finally picked up the trunk of water and started to walk. A strained silence filled the air as Yugi tried to control the sudden increase of heartbeats he was now hitting. Sure he had no romantic feelings for the brunet, but he had to admit he never expected Seto to be so…well…chivalric. Now Yugi couldn't help but look at the other in a different light.
"Kaiba I'm sorr-" Whispered Yugi just before he caught himself and paused. "I mean…thank you."
"If you really want to show your thanks, then get better soon…okay!" Huffed Seto, as he realized his words had lost most of their force, considering he was now carrying Yugi on his back.
Seto felt Yugi's smile as the boy leaned his face into his back and nodded. "Okay Kaiba. I promise."
'Tch. I will never understand you…' Snorted Seto, as he was thankful Yugi couldn't see the slight flush on his cheeks.
*************************************************
"So what's brings you back here…I mean besides giving a guy I drink. Did Kaiba run you off too?" Questioned Jonouchi as he leaned back into the sand and gazed out towards the ocean.
"No, but he was damn close to it." Chuckled Yami as he tossed a stray twig into the fire. "Then again, I suppose he's not really that bad…overall he's…tolerable."
"Heh." Snorted Jonouchi dryly before he stood up and patted the sand off his pants. "Yo Yami, I got to go water the garden…I'll be right back." Yami merely nodded in response as he stared back deeply into the fire.
Yami's eyes then began to cloud over as the sudden mention of Kaiba's name had him feeling a bit distraught. 'He's more then just tolerable…I mean I couldn't leave my Hikari with just anyone…why didn't I realize it before though…Why didn't I realize that I really do trust Kaiba a lot.'
'It's strange though. We're really not friends…we don't even get along. The only thing we really have in common is the love for the game, and the fact that we both hate to lose, and well considering I always beat him…I guess I can't blame the guy for resenting me. If I lost to him would I feel any less bitter? Yugi probably wouldn't…but I think I would….'
'So then if not for our rivalry…could I possibly say that Kaiba and I are friends? I mean according to what Yugi and Jonouchi have taught me, a friend is a person you can always trust and depend on…and well now that I think about it, that's how I feel towards Kaiba. There are a lot of things I respect and admire about him, so how couldn't I?'
'He's just so damn cold a reclusive though…I bet before he met us, Kaiba never had any one in his life that was remotely close to being his friend, and that's why he's so keen on not accepting our friendship…Then again I'm not sure if Jonouchi would totally agree with that notion, but it's clear that Yugi does…so what about me? I guess since Kaiba pretended to hate me, all this time I've done the same, but in truth I never really wanted to, and now that Kaiba admitted that he really doesn't feel that way about me… I'm not sure how I should look at him'
'Were not enemies…we're not friends…Kaiba agreed to those words himself…just saying we were rivals use to be good enough, but now that were in a situation where we don't have to compete, I'm not sure what to classify him as…hmm…now I think I know how Yugi feels….'
'Okay Kaiba…how about I give you another chance…then I will decided what exactly we share…'
"Hey Yami!" Shouted Jonouchi, causing Yami to abandon his thoughts and turn towards the ecstatic boy. "Look what I found when I was taking a leak."
"Jonouchi…I think I've already seen everything that you got. Don't flatter yourself, just because I'm a spirit doesn't mean that I don't-"
"That's not what I mean." Frowned Jonouchi as he cut Yami off. "Then again I would be lying if I didn't say I ever wondered."
"What is it that you saw?" Snapped Yami as he gave the blonde a look of un-amusement.
"Well I think I might have actually found something we can eat." Smiled Jonouchi as he led Yami towards a small bush. "See. I found berries."
"Jonouchi, you didn't eat any of these, did you?" Exclaimed Yami worriedly.
"Well I did think about it, but no."
Yami let out a sigh of relieve as he patted his chest and smiled. "Good…because Jonouchi these things aren't safe to eat."
"Huh? What makes you say that?" Protested Jonouchi. "When did you suddenly become Mr. Scout Master?"
"Well I'm not too sure if I'm looking into this too much, but I did notice some signs of wildlife surviving on this island when Yugi and I were walking the other day."
"So…" Drawled Jonouchi.
"So don't you think that it's kind of strange that there is a perfectly good bush of berries here that looks like it's never been touched?" Exclaimed Yami. "I mean there's no signs of any kind of animals tampering with this bush, so my best guess is it's because this fruit is poisonous."
Jonouchi jaw dropped as he thanked Ra that for once he didn't follow his instinct and ate the berries. "Wow Yami…now that you mention it…that does make sense…I almost forgot how perceptive you could be."
"Well I try…" Smirked Yami back, just before Jonouchi's stomach growled.
"But man does this suck…now I'm more hungry than before." Whined Jonouchi as he held his rumbling stomach.
"I'm sorry Jonouchi…I would say I understand, but I don't…a spirit like me doesn't need to eat."
"Your one lucky SOB." Groaned Jonouchi as he padded away from the bush and back towards the campfire. He then violently stopped in his tracks, causing Yami to run into him.
"Jonouchi, what's wrong? Why did you stop?" Questioned Yami frantically.
"Is…is that Kaiba?" Squeaked out Jonouchi as he pointed at a figure walking from not too far away. "Carrying Yugi on his back?"
"You know if you keep staring like that something might fly into that humongous mouth of yours." Sneered Seto as he finally approached the two stunned boys.
"Uhh…Kaiba…" Started Yami as he glanced over at Yugi who was now soundly a sleep.
"What! Yeah, well Yugi was feeling too weak to walk so I carried him. Is there a problem with that?" Snapped Seto furiously as he felt his face grow hot.
He then rudely shoved the trunk of water into Jonouchi's chest and heaved Yugi into Yami's arms. "Yugi thought you might want this."
"WATER! Now this is the right way to bring a guy a drink." Beamed Jonouchi as he gave Yami a queer smile. Yami pretended to ignore his grinning friend as he turned back towards Seto and smiled.
"Thank you Kaiba…I really mean it." Seto merely stared over Yami's head, keeping his eyes firmly fixed away from the spirit, and shrugged.
"Hey now! Don't drink all of it! We need some of that for later you know!" Shouted Seto as he brushed past Yami and towards Jonouchi who was now gulping down the water like it was air.
"Hey I'm thirsty man!"
"So what!"
"So I'm thirsty."
"We've been through this already."
Yami let out a soft chuckle as he watched Seto chase after Jonouchi, who was doing a remarkably good job of running away while carrying a trunk full of water.
"Yami." Whispered a soft voice. The dark spirit blinked and then came face to face with two soft amethyst eyes.
"Yugi…" Answered Yami as he gently set his hikari down. "So are you feeling any better."
"I think so." Nodded Yugi. "Since Kaiba carried me, I got plenty of rest…I just feel bad that he had to do that."
"Well I'm surprised that he did." Stated Yami flatly.
"I'm not…" Trailed Yugi just before he was suddenly tackled.
"Yo Yug! I see your awake now." Cheesed Jonouchi as he threw an arm over Yugi's shoulder. "Ehh Yugi…why are you all wet?"
"The same reason Kaiba's wet." Replied Yugi earning a few suspicious glances due to the suggestive implications behind his seemingly innocent words.
All eyes then turned towards Kaiba who had just started to approach everyone and had no idea what was going on. "What!?!" Snapped Seto defensively.
*********************************************************
"Idiot." Muttered Seto.
"I heard that!" Barked Jonouchi back.
"Do you really think you can catch a fish with you're bare hands? You're a dog Katsuya not a cat." Chuckled Seto smugly. Jonouchi merely flicked Seto off causing Kaiba's smile to only widen.
"Well considering we don't have any thing to fish with…I suppose trying to catch fish this way is our only resort…however the practicality behind your method Jonouchi is a little…well…"
"Everyone's a critic." Grumbled Jonouchi as he rolled his eyes away from Yami.
"I'll help you Jonokun!" Exclaimed Yugi as he started to take his jacket off.
Both Yami and Seto's eye widened, as Yami quickly intercepted the boy. "Yugi…I don't think you're in any kind of a condition to do that. The last thing we want is for you to pass out again."
"Oh…but I wanted to help…if Jonokun does this all by himself, then we might not catch anything." Whispered Yugi as he fidgeted with his foot and stared at his Yami somberly.
"Tch. Even if a hundred Jonouchi's were doing this, we still wouldn't catch a damn thing." Scoffed Seto.
"GOTCHA!" Shouted Jonouchi just before he sneezed a fell over backwards into the ocean.
A bead a sweat fell from Yami's brow as he watched the scene and then stared back at his teary eyed Hikari. He then let out a disgruntled sigh, and cursed in a foreign language as he immediately started to regret his next words. "Fine then Yugi…I'll…I'll help Jonouchi in your place. How does that sound?"
"Oh Yami! You don't have to-"
"No, it's not a big deal. I mean what's the worse thing that could happen? We don't catch anything?" Replied Yami optimistically.
"ACK! Something just pinched my ass!" Wailed Jonouchi.
Seto raised a brow to the former pharaoh, and shook his head sympathetically. His attention was then fully caught as Yami began to remove his clothes much in the same way Yugi had before. However, this show seemed to be a lot more inciting. "Hmm…"
"So why don't you give it a try Kaiba?" Questioned Yugi violently jerking Seto's from his thoughts.
Seto mentally cursed at Yugi for forcing him to abandon Yami's strip show, as he reluctantly turned his head towards the boy and snorted. "Because I'm not an idiot, or a gullible fool."
"Because he knows he can't do it!" Chimed in Jonouchi.
"Why work at an impossible task. I don't like to waste my time." Replied Seto flatly.
"So then your saying you can't do it." Questioned Yami.
"…" Seto didn't respond as he realized he was getting backed into another corner.
"Hmm well now I better catch a fish for sure, so that I can say I did something that the great and mighty Kaiba said he couldn't!" Laughed Jonouchi as he plunged in after another nearby fish.
"Oh come now Jonouchi. There are plenty of things you can do that Kaiba can't." Smiled Yami.
"Really…like what?" Questioned Jonouchi a little too quickly.
'Jonouchi you are not helping your defense…' Nodded Yami dejectedly."Well for one thing, catching a fish with your bare hands. Doing that will only prove that you have an immense amount of skill.
"So in other words if I do catch a fish then Seto would have to admit that I have more skill then him because he already said he can't-"
"I never said I can't do it!" Thundered Seto.
"Then why aren't you?" Smirked Yami.
"…FINE! FINE! I'll join your little horrent escapade!" Snapped Seto as he stood up and started to take off his jacket. "But if I catch anything, the first thing I'm gonna do is shove it down Katsuya's throat!"
Yugi shook his head and smiled as he watched the three shirtless boys splash around in the water. He then felt his face grow hot as all the blood rushed straight to his groin. For some reason his eyes were glued on the trio, and his heart was racing at an unruly speed.
'Yami and I are suppose to look alike, but Yami is so much more…well…sexy.' Grinned Yugi. The boy then quickly smacked his forehead and berated himself for even thinking such a thought, before his eyes began to wander in the direction of his best friend.
'Oh and Jonouchi is just as hot as I imagined him to be…if not hotter!' Mewled Yugi as Jonouchi just so happened to flick a few damp bangs out of his face. Yugi about fell over at this before he quickly ducked his face away in attempt to calm his hormones.
However, avoiding the object of his affections didn't help much as Yugi stole a glance in the wrong direction. 'I might find Yami attractive, and adore Jonouchi, but Kaiba!! I hate to admit it, but he's probably the best sight of them all, and I don't even really like the guy that way!'
Yugi quickly snapped up at the thought as a swarm of guilt and lust over took him. He then staggered over towards the shoreline, and splashed a handful of icy ocean water into his face.
"Err Yugi…I thought you said you were feeling better." Exclaimed Jonouchi as he splashed over to where Yugi was.
"Your burning up worse then you were this morning." Frowned Yami as he put his hand to Yugi's face.
"I thought his fever was gone." Added Seto, as he brushed his wet bangs out of his line of vision.
"Umm…no…I-I'm fine." Chuckled Yugi nervously as he quickly knelt down in order to hide an oncoming arousal. "Just thought I might cool down a bit after sitting out in this hot sun."
"Well…okay." Trailed Yami uneasily before he and the other boys returned to their task of catching dinner.
****************************************************
"Grrr…STOP SPLASHIN AROUND!" Thundered Seto. "It's because of you're floundering that we haven't caught a thing!"
"Yeah Jou. I would have to agree with Kaiba on this one. If you keeping moving around you will scare all the fish away, and the key to fishing, no matter what the method is silence, patience, and poise."
"I know." Whimpered Jonouchi. "But I can't stand still…it's just too…boring!"
"Well deal with it!" Snapped Seto.
Jonouchi merely muttered something intangible under his breath as he finally decided to remain completely still like everyone else. "Wait for it." Whispered Yami as a large fish swam by only a few feet from them.
"But…" Started Jonouchi as his anxiousness and lack of patience began to take him. He then began to fidget restlessly as the fish got closer.
"Jonouchi wait!" Called out Yami as he watched the blonde dive in after the fish with one failing attempt.
"Dammit Mutt! Growled Seto just before he smacked the boy in the face with a wad of kelp.
"HEY!" Shouted Jonouchi as he spit the seaweed out of his mouth. He then grabbed a handful of it from off his head and was about to throw it at Seto, just before he tripped and fell over backwards into the water.
"Idiot." Snorted Seto.
However, rather than face a pissed off looking Jonouchi, the blonde splashed out of the water with a huge grin spread across his face. "Aye guys, you'd never guess what I caught."
"Wow Jonouchi! You actually caught a fish!" Exclaimed Yami proudly.
"You got to be shitting me." Muttered Seto.
It was then that the fish in Jonouchi's hand began to wriggle violently, causing the boy to lose his grip and drop it. "Crap!" Cried Jonouchi, just before the fish landed in Yami's arms. Yami blinked at the fish incredulously, just before he was smacked in the face by it's tail. Startled by this Yami threw the fish into the air, just before it was swiftly caught by Seto with one hand.
"Who caught a fish?" Smirked Seto.
"That's not fair!" Protested Jonouchi. "I caught it first!"
"Oh? Is that so? It's not really called catching when you drop the ball, now is it?" Questioned Seto smugly.
"Umm guys." Whispered Yami.
"Hey that wasn't my fault." Retaliated Jonouchi.
"Guys." Called out Yami.
"Oh and I bet now your going to try to blame it on the fish?" Sneered Seto as he rolled his eyes.
"Guys?"
"WHAT!?!" Snapped the two boys sharply.
"Don't look now, but there's…" However before Yami could finish his sentence a huge wave the size of a house pummeled the three unsuspecting boys.
Yugi trailed his fingers in the water and sighed. He was then suddenly startled as a wave came thrashing towards him. However, before he could get up and dodge it's fury, Yugi was struck down.
After recovering from the blow, Yugi blinked and stared at the three boys who had washed up onto the beach and now had their faces flat in the sand. "This sucks…" Spat Jonouchi as he tried to brush the seaweed and dirt out of his mouth.
Seto merely glared at Jonouchi before he looked over at Yugi and frowned. "Oh wow!" Laughed Yugi. "Look what I caught!" The same fish that had eluded Jonouchi, Yami, and Seto was now in Yugi's lap, flopping around to no avail. "Well I guess that's one fish!"
Yami merely nodded his head whiled Jonouchi dropped his face back into the sand shamefully. "What?" Questioned Yugi as he expected his friends to be a little more excited, and was confused by their reactions.
"Ignorance truly is bliss." Scowled Seto as he shook his head and sighed.
To be continued….
Ha! I scared a few of you in the last chapter didn't I? Then again I think 1 or 2 of you figured me out, and I would like to take the time to commend you on your wittiness. Anyways I know this chapter was kind of a detour from the usual pairings. It was kind of an experiment…you know I wanted to see the perspective from all sides and now I've come to a conclusion.
I'm gonna stick to the J/Y, S/YY, YY/Y, and S/J stuff. SetoxYugi and YamixJou/JouxYami just doesn't really work for me. So for those of you who asked, sorry…I mean I guess I could kind of see the SetoxYugi thing happening, and I have read a couple of fics where it worked, but personally if your gonna put Yugi with Seto, then you should make it a threesome with S/YY/Y! I really love that pairing! I mean I guess because I'm a little kinky…but also if you think about it with Yami and Yugi it works. There the only 2 people I can really see sharing a lover because there like the same soul and usually share the same feelings! As for Yami and Jou being together, I just don't see it at all. Even in the course of writing this chapter I couldn't really bring myself to write anything more…I mean I guess their best friends too, but for some reason I just don't see best friend Yami and Jou love working like Yugi and Jou and that's kind of the basis for that pairing! Hey if any of you have or do happen to fall on a good Yami and Jou fic, hit me up! I'm still not making that an option in my story, but I sure wouldn't mind reading one.
Oh yeah, and I have to admit I had trouble finding a finishing point for this chapter. If you ask me I really do prefer to end them with really evil cliffhangers, but I guess you guys lucked out this time! Oh but don't worry, I already started the next chapter and I wrote an outline of it in my head, and believe me chapter six will have the most worse cliffhanger thus far! *Grins deviously*
Oh and speaking of me actually getting ahead I think I'm gonna do something I don't usually do. Give you all a sneak preview of what's to come
Scene from chapter six:
"Hey I know! How about truth or dare!" Suggested Jonouchi.
"What is this? Some fourteen year old girl's slumber party!" Snapped Seto dourly.
"Heh…I guess you're right." Chuckled Jonouchi weakly. "Then again I do know of another game…but never mind."
"No go ahead." Encouraged Yugi.
"Well it's a game I played recently at school…it's called Kiss or Tell."
"Kiss or Tell?" Echoed Yugi.
'I don't like the sound of this…' Worried Seto.
"What are the rules?" Questioned Yami as he suddenly became intrigued.
End SceneHeh-heh. Can't wait to finish that chapter, and it's basically all written in my head, so I already know you guys are gonna love it! Well anyhow this note is getting a tad to long so I'll just end it like this and would like to say thanks again! Please continue to read and review and it's also still not too late to vote!
