"Yami!" Yuugi hissed at his spouse who jumped.

What? I am merely checking on Akira and Hathor.

"You're spying, why are you being like this, you weren't like this with Hathor's other boyfriends?" Yuugi stood on the street corner with his arms crossed looking at his husband.

"Because they didn't have the name 'Kaiba' attached to their names, nor were they related to a Jounouchi." Yami stated before peeping around the corner again.

"What the hell has that got to do with anything?" Yuugi demanded at the insult to his best friend.

"I'm just saying that both of his parents are sex-hungry fiends. He's no different."

"And I'm supposing I am as well?" A female voice came from behind the two caused them both to jump.

"Keiko, we didn't notice you were there. And no you aren't, Yami's just being an ass." Yuugi glared at the ruby-eyed spirit.

"Uncle Yami, you can relax, Ai and Hotaru already got their tickets and are inside waiting. Yukito-kun and I already have the seats.

"Oh and before I leave, Hathor says to quit worrying, she'll just do what she always does to Akira if he tries something. Then he'll have to deal with me at home. Especially since I know the password for his computer." Keiko walked off, her ankle length black skirt swaying in the winter breeze.

"See? Now can we go home, I'm cold and tired?" Yuugi tugged on the taller man's sleeve.

I know a way to warm you up and put you right to sleep. Yami's thoughts drifted into his husband's. This caused the smaller to smile before tugging harder on the sleeve.

"Careful aibou, this is my only jacket."

Yami trudged down the steps, tying his bathrobe while doing so. He and Yuugi had been in such a rush to get upstairs, they had forgotten to turn on the light for Hathor.

The spirit flipped the switch just as the door was opening.

"Why were you following me tonight?" His daughter demanded.

"Worried for your safety, comes out of habit." Yami muttered before going to the kitchen.

"Habit? Papa, I'm seventeen years old!"

"Which is why I ended up walking ten feet behind you two on your way home. Hathor lets face it, my brother is a sex-fiend, and he always has been. Kami, he's got condom wrapper spread throughout our bathroom, it's a wonder Papa hasn't found 'em yet." Keiko muttered while pulling down three cups from the cupboard.

"I agree, why is it we get along and your dad and I don't?" Yami questioned the eight-teen year old.

"I think it has to do with the fact I'm more mature than him." At this comment, the teen's cell phone went off.

"Hi Daddy, yes I'm spending the night at Hathor's, yes I walked ten feet behind them, no Akira didn't try to drag her off to the bathroom. I can't answer that. Uh huh, ok, I'll call, bye."

Hathor's eye was twitching, "drag me off to the bathroom?"

"You know, I'm the female twin, but he keeps a journal. Weird huh?" Keiko asked the two before grabbing a cookie off the plate. Hathor started giggling like mad and had to be careful about choking on the cookie she was currently eating.

Yami poured milk into two of the glasses. He knew Keiko couldn't drink milk with out special medication, "sorry, I don't know where those pills got to."

"No problem, I wanted water anyway."

Yami drank the milk, "don't stay up too late girls."

"And don't do something with Daddy until later please; my head hurts from the freaking movie." Hathor muttered and Keiko snickered.

Yami trudged up the steps and into his bedroom. He carefully got back in, trying not to wake Yuugi.

"Did Akira try anything?" Yuugi asked quietly. Yami spooned the naked form after jumping slightly.

"Apparently not, or those two are good at hiding things like that."

"Two?"

"Keiko and the spawn you call your daughter."

"You named her." Yuugi muttered before yawning and closing his eyes.

"Too true."


"Yami don't you dare go in there." Yuugi warned the spirit. The living room door had been closed for a few hours and Akira, Hathor, Ai and Hotaru were currently in there.

"They could be having a foursome!"

"Do you really think Ai Ishtar and Hotaru Bakura would be in there? They would have kicked Akira out and called Keiko." Yuugi frowned.

"I suppose that's true..."

"Yuugi, Yami! Honda, I don't think they're home." A female voice shouted from the kitchen before talking to someone else.

"Hang on Anzu." Yuugi called back. He grabbed the spirit's arm and pulled him off towards the kitchen.

"Hey guys." A very pregnant Anzu smiled at the two.

"Hi, how are you two? And sit down already, I'm not evil enough to make you stand." Yuugi said before grabbing Yami's sleeve again so he wouldn't go back to the door.

"I take it Akira's over." Honda smirked and offered one of the chairs to the brunette, whom had her now long hair in a ponytail. Yami stared at the door and Yuugi rolled his eyes as he forced the spirit to sit.

"I hate being pregnant, I can't see my feet." The woman whined while Yami and Honda held in their laughter.

"I know how you feel, I hated it too. It's worth it most of the time." Yuugi sympathized.

"You talking about Akira or Miho?" Honda asked mentioning their daughter who was a royal pain in the ass at times.

"Akira," the two game-masters muttered.

Ai and Hathor walked out and were talking about something when they encountered the four adults, "we're spending the night at Hotaru's. Oh and Uncle Seto and Jou are on their way over."

"Does this sleep over include Akira?" Yami questioned.

"Papa! Quit worrying god freaking damn it!" The sophomore cried out and Anzu gave the girl a look of sympathy.

Honda looked at Yuugi, "So, who'd she get the language from? Seeing as how you rarely curse and Yami only curses when it's an appropriate time, that's usually away from her."

"Keiko or Ai, no doubt, both of their parents are bad mouthed." Yuugi muttered.

"Especially the mutt I'm married to." Seto announced his arrival. The others looked at him; it was clearly easy to see that he was downright pissed. Especially since he never used the form of 'mutt' unless he was upset with Jou.

Jou walked in after him with a box filled with old things, "I've got those old baby toys you wanted Anzu, why didn't you just keep the ones that Miho had?"

"I figured I wasn't going to have another kid, so I gave them to good will." At this the brunette watched as he took the seat farthest away from the CEO and didn't look at him.

Yuugi decided it would be best to ask his friend what happened later before sighing and watched as Keiko walked in, her usual skirt swishing as she did. It was some kind of Kaiba thing; every one of them had their own trademark piece of clothing. Seto's was a trench coat, which he had worn less since being married, while Keiko's was a long skirt. Akira didn't inherit that trait thankfully.

The teen walked past all of them and went into the back room before some yelling was heard, followed by giggling and moans of pain from the only male in the back room, Akira.

"Don't hurt him too badly, remember, he's just a guy with hormones!" Honda shouted, the giggling stopped followed by a burst of laughter.

Jou got up and walked to the door before pausing and then going outside. Seto didn't bother looking before Yuugi got up and followed him.

"Jou, what happened between you two? You've been like this with him all month." Yuugi questioned him as his slipper clad feet crunched on the snow.

Jou didn't respond for a while, Yuugi sighed and was about to go back in, "I think he's cheating on me."

Yuugi whirled around, "N-nani!?"

"I think he's fucking cheating on me! No, I know he is! The bastard has been coming home later and later every night, and there is always the smell of different perfumes and colognes on his clothes." By the end of this, the blond had quieted down and looking at the frozen yard which had two forts built on each side and tracks all over from various shoes.

"Maybe he's just been around a lot of men and women at work, business meetings and stuff like that." Yuugi suggested.

Jou just shook his head, "No, it isn't scheduled in his palm pilot, and he's coming home later then usual. Last night he didn't get home until three thirty. Yuug, you care to explain to me what the hell he's doing?"

"I don't know Jou, maybe; maybe he's just doing something. Not sexually, he loves you too much for that."

"Yeah, our sophomore year really proved that." Jou muttered sarcastically, "I'll see you Yuug; I gotta go...somewhere, anywhere but near him."

Yuugi watched the thirty-seven year old man walk, "Jou, don't leave."

"No, I gotta, that bastard got his damned heir, two of them, that's all he wanted. I just happened to be the idiot who gave them to him."

"Except you forgot, this bastard has the keys." Seto was leaning against the doorframe.

Jou cursed darkly without looking at the brunet.

"Daddy, we're leaving for Hota- Papa! What's going on?" Keiko questioned her parents as she ran to Jou.

"Nothing, Keiko, take him home, I'm going to stay here, make sure the alcohol cabinet is locked up tight." Seto threw her the keys and motioned for Yuugi to come in.

Keiko stared at her father before looking at Jou, "Papa?"

"I'm fine Keiko, let's just go, I'll drop you off at Hotaru's. Get the others."

Keiko looked at her father with her deep sapphire eyes and Jou got in the driver's seat. She bit her lower lip and ran inside.

"Hey, Uncle Yuugi, can you tell Hotaru I'm sorry, but I can't make it tonight?" She asked him, concern laced through her soft, raspy voice.

"Of course." Yuugi looked over at Seto who nodded at his daughter.

"Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid." Seto commented just before she walked out the daughter.

The thin brunette paused, then went out the door.

"Ok, what the fuck have you been doing? He thinks your cheating on him!" Yuugi shouted as soon as they heard the car drive away. Everyone at the table looked at him with wide eyes except Seto.

"I know."

"And you haven't done anything about it!?" Anzu shouted while slamming her hand on the table.

"God damn it, why the hell should I try again? He isn't listening to me at all, he's being irrational, the last time I saw him like this was senior year! I can't even make him pay attention long enough for me to explain." At this the CEO buried his head in his left hand, his wedding ring glinting in the light.

Yami got up and went into the back room to tell the kids to leave soon.

"Then, could you tell us? At least we'll know." Anzu asked as Honda kissed her cheek and grabbed the car keys as Hotaru, Hathor, Akira and Ai followed behind him.

Seto waited until they left, "believe it or not, back in the orphanage, I had a few people whom, you might call friends. Mokuba managed to stay in touch with a few of them and we've been 'hanging out' as you could put it.

"Katsuya is blowing this all out of proportion, the perfumes and cologne he smells are from them. And last night, we all went out shopping."

"Shopping?" Yuugi raised an eyebrow.

"Our anniversary is in three weeks, and I wanted to get him something special." At this he pulled out a small charm.

It had a piece of silver entwined so it shaped someone like an eight. It had pieces of amber and sapphire crisscrossing. Where the silver entwined there was half a piece of amber and sapphire next each other. In the middle of the loops, there were two large pieces of crystal.

"That's, beautiful, you better do something soon, he's about ready to do something really bad. He's never been this depressed, not even when you acted like you hated him." Yami commented.

Seto looked at the ex-pharaoh, "I'm using your phone."

"Make sure to have hot monkey sex to make up for it, it might be a good idea to let him be top too." Anzu muttered and Yuugi started to laugh slightly.

"Seto, sit down, you can call later, right now we need to help you find a way to make Jou believe you." Yami said and pulled out some coffee mugs.


Seto walked into the mansion around two. Yami and Yuugi had helped him form a plan for his and Katsuya's anniversary. He walked into the living room to find his daughter asleep by the door and Katsuya sprawled out on the floor, a bottle of his best gin close by.

He looked down at Keiko who seemed to have been keeping a vigil on her blond father and noticed some bruises on her wrist in the form of fingers. Sapphire eyes immediately darted to her right cheek which had a bruise forming on it, another handprint.

Seto leaned down and scooped his daughter up. She was very light for her height so he made it up the steps easily. He tucked her in and went back down.

"Set."

Seto saw Jou standing there, tears in his honey brown eyes. The CEO walked within two feet from the shaky blond.

"I hit her Set, I hit our baby girl." At this the blond began to fall and Seto stepped to catch him, "I'm just like my dad, a terrible father."

Seto just rubbed the blond's back and made soft, reassuring gestures. The blond haired man started to cry into the black turtleneck Seto was wearing.

"It's alright Jou, you aren't like him, shh, it's ok," Seto picked him up bridal style and carried him to their room.

The baggy blue jeans that were clad on the blond's legs were pulled off, leaving him in his boxers that had pool balls on them. Seto pushed the blond under the heavy amount of silk sheets and covered him up with the blankets.

"Ryu, please don't be mad at me, I don't know what I did, just don't leave me." The blond babbled and Seto climbed into the bed as well. The larger form pulled the blond close and said male curled up to him.


Hey folks! I managed to produce this chapter during the intense week of marching band. You can tell where I stopped writing one day and continued onto the next. Now, as to why Jou is so OOC, he's flipping drunk! I mean, I have pixi sticks and Soda and I act drunk too.

Faye: which led to you telling Sammy-kun how you felt.

.....yeah, I think I have a boyfriend now, but that won't affect me much....maybe....I hope you all like. I wrote the cheating part today because I was really depressed for some reason. The whole, 'Yami is protective of his daughter' thing was my friend's idea. It was fun writing it though. In case you all can't tell, my favorite pairing happens to be Katsuya/Seto, just because of how their relationship is. I mean, really, they fight all the time, making the show worth watching...sometimes it's just the fact we want to see Marik buuuuut-

Faye: no that's you and Tasha

...Having tons of voices sucks. Anyway, I truly love this chapter, it just shows you that the show is so messed up and so is my mind, which makes it worthwhile. Oh well, review and I'll give you pixi sticks! Of course, I'll have to steal them from Fez, but whatever!

Oh, this chapter, might actually be the beginning of a plot...gasp
