Notes: In light of my successful fic "An Innocent Joke?" I'm writing this one for everyone who enjoyed it and wanted to see a sequel made. Unfortunately this is not a sequel, but another story altogether. There won't be a sequel to that story since I can't think of anything to write for it. But this another fic where Seto does play a mean trick on poor Jou! ooooo These many circles can indicate a change of some kind. Time, scenery or character. Seto is eighteen and Jou is seventeen.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Chapter Fourteen: Confessions

Jou did his best to keep the small limp out of his stride as he made his way home, a big idiotic grin on his face regardless of the small insignificant pain in his backside. Resisting the urge to start humming and skipping his way home in his good mood.

Seto certainly did know how to make his day, that was for sure.

The brunet had called his place a few hours ago, sounding rather needy as he rasped out how much he needed him and wanted him to come over to his place. And since he was unable to deny his dragon anything he wanted, he went over without complaint.

The CEO certainly did seem to be in a good mood when he got there, holding him close and purring in his ear how Mokuba was fast asleep. Knocked out because of all the drowsy pain killers he'd been given, and leaving the two of them all alone with nothing better to do aside from have a little fun.

Jou had to admit, their second time was a helluva lot different then their first. Not in a bad way mind you, in fact it was ten times better then what the blonde had expected considering their first time together had been so rushed in their lust for each other. But this time, Seto had made slow love to him. Taking his time so that there was almost no pain at all in the beginning, and that he nearly drove him wild with his continually growing need for release that the CEO kept on denying him until the very end.

Touching, caressing, stroking, fondling, licking and kissing...

It was fucking fantastic.

It made the blonde's heart ache that he couldn't spend the night snuggled with the brunet like he'd done before, and he could have sworn he saw Seto pouting when he gathered his things and got ready to leave, but when he whipped his head over to get a better view, the look was gone, replaced with a stone face and sad eyes.

He was quick to glomp him, still on the bed and naked beneath the covers, before kissing him gently and telling him that he would see him in the morning for school.

Seto had offered to give him a ride back, but there was still some light out, and Jou was in a good enough mood to walk the forty five minutes back to his place, so he did.

And now that he was almost home, he could see that a few of the lights were on in the house now that it had gotten darker out.

Deciding to skip up the stone stairs and lett out his urge to start humming a cheery little tune now that he was home and no one aside from his old man would hear it, Jou opened up the creaking door before stepping on inside.

"Hey dad." He greeted, seeing his father sitting at the table, eating a tv dinner while looking in the newspaper.

The elder man looked up. "Hey kid." He greeted back, looking back down at the paper in his hands. "You have fun at your friend's?" He asked, taking another bite out of mashed potatoes that he found to be strangely tasty considering they came from a tv dinner.

"Yup!" Jou chirped, taking off his shoes before heading into the kitchen and digging through the freezer for a dinner for himself since he didn't feel like cooking either.

"That's good. So what'd ya's do?" He asked, and Jou froze, but for only a split second before pulling out the box of food he desired and walking over to the microwave.

"Just, uh, hanging out." He explained, trying to hide how nervous he felt as he tried to concentrate on pulling the food from the box so that he could cook it in the microwave. But for some odd reason he couldn't get it open. 'Damn nerves.' He mentally cursed.

His old man didn't seem to notice how tense his son was, considering his face was still in the sports section. So he simply shrugged. "Fine, fine, just don't ever do anything I wouldn't do." He said with a small grin, remembering all the shit he pulled back when he was that age, and knowing his boy would catch the joke.

He found it a bit strange when Jou didn't reply.

Looking up at where his son still stood, he raised an eye at him with how quiet he seemed. "What's wrong?" He asked, eyeing him suspiciously and wondering if his boy had actually gone off to do drugs or some stupid shit like that.

He didn't like it when his boy didn't answer. "Katsuya, what's wrong?" He asked again, putting his paper down and drawing his full attention on his son. A look on his face that said "Don't you dare tell me you've been doing something stupid!"

Jou swallowed, hard, feeling his stomach churn with the new ideas in his head and contemplating what he should do about them.

Should he, or should he not, tell his father about Seto?

They were getting pretty serious into their relationship, and it would come out eventually, so wouldn't it be better if his pop heard it from him first? He was a little afraid of how he'd take it, sure, but his dad was different now. He was sober and reasonable, not a violent alcoholic. So he had nothing to fear, right?

Maybe he should tell him.

"Katsuya?"

Jou blinked, shaking himself out of his little trance and looking clearly at his father again, seeing that he now had his arms crossed while patiently waiting for him to explain himself and tell him that he wasn't out dealing, or slashing tires, or something of the like.

The younger Jonouchi sighed, putting the box of cheap frozen food down on the counter to be forgotten, walking over to the wobbly table and taking a seat across from his old man.

Seeing the almost guilty look on his son's face, the elder Jonouchi's face hardened. "Boy, if you tell me your with that gang again you'll wish you were never born!" He barked furiously, not at all pleased with the idea and hoping that Jou knew better.

"No, no! It's nothing like that!" Jou quickly said, bringing his hands up as if to show him his sincerity.

The elder man calmed down a bit, relieved that his boy wasn't into the whole gang thing again, but his suspicion had yet to waver. "Well then, what's wrong?" He asked, hoping it was nothing too serious.

Jou bit his bottom lip, tapping his fingers nervously against the table. "Well uh... Y'know that guy I've been hanging out with lately?" He asked, his heart pounding nervously in his throat as he continually reminded himself that it was now or never.

His father raised an eyebrow at him. "Yeah?" He asked, wondering why he seemed so nervous all of a sudden.

The blonde let out a shaky breath of air, trying to think about how he should word what he was about to say.

"Well?" His old man pressed.

Jou swallowed. "That guy, his name is Seto, and we've, uh... been seeing each other." He explained slowly.

The older man blinked. "Yeah, I know that. So?" He asked.

Jou blinked at him. There was no way he'd heard that right. "You... you know?"

"Yes," His father replied, looking like he'd just gone insane. "You mentioned him a few days ago."

Jou's shoulders slumped. He knew it was too good to be true.

His dad just didn't understand what he was trying to say.

"No, I don't mean seeing each other as friends," He started back up, watching his father look at him curiously. "I meant seeing each other as... as a couple."

His old man looked a little taken back with the statement. "What?" He asked, wondering if he heard wrong. "What do you mean?" He asked.

Jou started to twiddle his fingers beneath the table. "Seto's kinda my boyfriend, dad." He explained further, keeping his head low.

The elder Jonouchi just couldn't seem to believe what he was hearing. Surely this was only a joke his son was playing on him!

"What do you mean by 'boyfriend?' He asked gruffly. "You mean, boyfriend, boyfriend?" He asked, his eyes wide as he awaited the answer.

Jou nodded his head softly, not too sure how he should be reading into his father's tone of voice.

Slowly looking up to get a look at his face, he felt his spirits sink with the look of furious anger that he found.

"You... You're not joking?" He asked, looking a little red in the face.

Jou shook his head, a few internal alarms going off inside his head, but he ignored them to the best of his abilities.

The elder Jonouchi clenched his fists, feeling a rage build within himself that he never knew he was capable of creating.

His son was actually a...!

He clenched his eyes shut, not wanting to even think about it like that.

But he needed to think, to set his mind straight and think about what he'd just been told before he ended up doing something stupid.

He turned his eyes away from the boy before him. "Go to your room." He hissed through clenched teeth.

"But dad I–"

"I SAID GO!!" He roared, slamming his open palms on the table and making the items there jump.

Jou stiffened, wasting no time in getting out of his seat and making a mad dash for the stairs. All thoughts of food forgotten as he raced to his room and slammed the door shut, locking himself inside in case something else were to happen.

He kept close to the door after that though, trying to hear what was going on downstairs, not feeling too much better when all that he could make out were a few incoherent mutters before the front door slammed.

The sound of the truck outside following, and Jou raced to his window just in time to see his old man pull out of the driveway before driving off into the night.

His eyes went wide.

Where was he going? He couldn't have been that mad at him. Was he coming back?

But then another thought crossed Jou's mind, one that he wished had stayed away.

What if he was going to the bar?

He tried to shake the ridiculous thought from his head. No, his father wouldn't do that, he'd been sober for so long now, he wouldn't just blow it all away like that simply for finding out that he was gay...

...Would he?

The blonde clenched his eyes shut, leaning against the cold wall of his room before sliding to the floor, tears threatening to engulf him along with the worry he felt.

What if he was going to get drunk? What if Jou just made his father piss away all the progress he'd made just because he couldn't keep his mouth shut for a little while longer?

Jou prayed to God that he wasn't going to a bar, that perhaps he was going to go to a friends house instead or something.

His old man's friends weren't so much better considering all the drinking they did, but it would be ten times better than risking going to the bar.

Jou hated himself then, because if he was going to get drunk, then he would most likely be coming home angry, and wanting to fight, and the last time his father picked a fight with him when he was drunk, he didn't show him any mercy at all.

...He didn't think he could go through something like that again.

Slowly pulling himself into bed, Jou kept the mantra in his head that the door to his room was locked, so even if his father did get drunks and tried to get in to pound the hell out of him for being gay, he probably wouldn't be able to do it.

That thought, while slightly comforting, still did little to help his mood as he tried to stifle his tears and get some rest.

To think, he thought that today was a good day.
