Chapta Two: Aftermath
Seto walked briskly in the direction of the front desk in the library, not bothering to soften the thumping noises his shoes made on the worn, blue carpet. As he rounded the last corner before the front desk, he caught what would have been an amusing sight if he didn't have a construction worker hammering on his skull- A certain blonde in his life was standing frozen in the middle of the room, with his back towards the CEO, seemingly paralyzed with paranoia.
Seto smirked and decided that it wouldn't be too bad if he just gave the mutt a tap on the shoulder, after all, nothing could possibly make his situation any worse than it was. Ignoring the bad feeling in his guts, he stopped behind the hyperventilating teen and clamped a hand heavily down onto the petrified boy's shoulder.
A loud scream erupted from the blonde's cavern like mouth as he started to flail his arms wildly in an ill attempt to defend himself, only succeeding in looking like a fool and tripping over his feet. Seto reached out to catch the falling teen by reflex as his head started throbbing insanely as the construction worker pulled out the jackhammer, each time it thumped, it felt like a thousand sharp razors were cutting through his brain tissue. I knew it…I knew there was going to be some fucking consequence like this… The brunette moaned lightly as his head began to develop a rapid heartbeat. It seemed to him that the construction worker in his head had been replaced by a horde of mutts performing the River Dance on his raw brain.
An answering moan from his arms distracted him from his current predicament and sent his attention back to the frightened, hyperventilating blonde.
A nasty grimace settled onto Kaiba's features as he realized that he had actually caught the other boy; he should have just let the damn mutt fall down and hopefully earn a few bruises that he deserved. After staring down at the dazed blonde he decided to take back any compliment that had been uttered mentally towards the stupid teen. Katsuya Jounouchi was a stupid mutt and a klutz to the fifth power. Why fifth? Because he liked the damn number.
"Urgh…" Seto looked down in concern despite himself and found unfocused chocolaty orbs staring up at him in confusion. Obviously, the mutt had gotten his breathing under control.
"S-Seto?" Opening his mouth to reply rudely, the brunette was cut short as Jounouchi Katsuya immediately lost consciousness, his head falling against Kaiba's chest limply. Blinking at the mutt's peculiar behavior he realized that he had lost consciousness and stared around him in rising panic, Seto saw the librarian's sign on the door and cursed fluently, immediately forgetting about the fact that a certain blonde haired boy had just used his first name. He had no experience whatsoever with unconscious people- Mokuba had never fainted before, much less gotten sick to the point of passing out.
The librarian had gone out and they were locked in…for an indeterminable amount of time. Breathing deeply, lest he started to hyperventilate also, he shifted the blonde's weight in his arms and debated on whether to leave the mutt or actually carry it to the couch. That psycho is going to burn too… nobody makes Seto Kaiba stay in a room with a mutt and gets away with it.
Sighing deeply as the blonde muttered something unconsciously about battling dragons and pizza, he resigned himself to his unlucky fate and hefted Katsuya's body over to the couch and threw him down on it. Seto winced as a particularly painful thump in his head reminded him of his own current state. Stupid mutt… more like a bitch than anything…ugh… making my headache worse…
Seto gracefully ignored the fact that he was the one that provoked the blonde to scream bloody murder. A particularly painful thump reminded him of the tap dancers currently occupying his head.
urghh… about that aspirin… Seto dashed over to the librarian's desk abandoning all thoughts of his appearance and immediately started to ransack the sloppily kept drawers in a highly undignified fashion…good thing they didn't have locks…

Outside on the campus a teen was giggling insanely as a second figure joined him. Both dressed in lavender sleeveless shirts and khaki pants, the two figures looked like they could have been twins, despite the fact that one was taller and tanner than the other. The second, paler figure rolled his eyes and wrapped an arm around the other's waist and slid a slender finger across the teen's lips.
"Malik…shuddap will you? It's time to have some fun…" The last word was uttered suggestively as he pushed himself closer to the other, pulling the darker boy against his hips tightly; the slightly darker figure smirked and bent his head to lick the smaller one's neck in response.
"Right…" Pulling away from each other they each slid out a pair of daggers from their boots and trekked across the campus in search of the first victim. It really was an eerie and mysterious sight for the few that were unlucky enough to witness it, sending trails of goose bumps across their skin.
A strong breeze swept across the school, sending sakura petals to swirl crazily around the two figures, their hair billowing around them and the sunlight reflecting sharply off of the smooth, metal blades in their hands, creating a suave image… straight from an old western movie.
"Malik will you stop it?!!!!! That's for later!"
However, Marik's indignant voice shattered that image and turned it into a disturbingly comical vision as the Egyptian tried to keep wandering hands from his rear…threatening to chop off various vital organs if the taller one didn't keep his hands to himself.

Anzu shivered as a brittle wind whipped across her face. Yeah, she'd heard about the lock down- but really, how could two psychos harm her when she had love and friendship on her side? She could've sworn though that she had heard the wind whisper that her demise was nearing by every step she took...
But, then-she wasn't of the superstitious kind…she was more of the 'friendship and love saves all…roughly translated to Yami saves all' believer…
-a really big mistake on her part since she forgot that Yami wasn't there with her, to a certain pharaoh's relief. As she crossed into the small courtyard in the middle of the school she saw a vague outline of a couple under a small tree arguing. The girl huffed indignantly at the nerve of the duo and marched over towards them intending fully to give them a lecture on the importance of their friendship, trust, and most of all love.
Her shoes echoed sharply on the stone beneath her feet, creating a clicking noise that alerted the couple of her presence long before she had time to open her mouth.
Two familiar pairs of lavender eyes stared out at her as sadistic grins spread across the couple's faces. She shuddered involuntarily as she heard a silky voice utter her name in surprise and undisguised happiness…shit…
"Anzu…!"
A shiver went up her spine and suddenly she felt that her legs really couldn't support her weight anymore. Still staring into the strangely hypnotic gaze of the teen in front of her, she painfully sank to her knees as her teeth started to chatter against each other uncontrollably.

Mrs. Yamasake marched over to the small closet in the back of the room and yanked the doors open, causing two figures to fall out, sprawled on top of each other. A sheepish looking Yugi looked up at her as he tried to sit up, straddling a disgruntled looking pharaoh in the process. The geometry teacher stared blindly at the two, before clearing her throat uncomfortably and asking in a hoarse voice, "Yugi…this is?"
Giggling nervously at the silent and generally stunned classroom, Yugi brushed himself off and pulled Yami to his feet, silently wishing that the earth beneath him would just open and swallow him up like at the end of a failed shadow duel.
"Um…my older brother, Yamasake-sama?"
"And what were you doing in the closet?" Yugi turned bright red and floundered for an answer. Saving Yugi from turning into a cherry, Yami smiled curtly at the rude woman in front of him, inclining his head to acknowledge the fact that he was Yugi's 'brother'.
"Making out quite nicely before you came. Just stepped onto second base if you know what I mean."
Yugi flushed an even darker red as all eyes trained on him and the proud pharaoh, boring holes into their figures. Whispers started around the room…
"oh my…!" a scandalized girl with curly red hair looked at them with teary eyes, her dreams and heart obviously shattered into a million shiny pieces on the floor.
"Incest? Damn!"
"Yugi's gay?"
The stunned teacher opened her mouth to reply but only succeeded into looking like a fish out of water before uttering two words, "Oh…my," and falling to the ground like a dead weight.
After a few minutes of silence the class erupted into chaos…Yugi and Yami were pulled off jammed tightly between two rabid looking girls. A pretty girl pursed her lips and started to tap her feet rapidly against her chair while staring at them in fascination. Smiling widely, she finally held out her hand and spoke.
"Hello! We're on the newspaper staff and-"
The girl next to her rolled her eyes and leaned forward as if about to share a confidential thought with the two trapped teens.
"What she means is that you two are absolutely hot together and please spill your guts out to us…" After a pause she added as an afterthought, "oh and please give me your opinions on bondage…"
The spiky haired teens tried to scoot away uncomfortably from what was apparently a group of insane, shounen ai fan girls only to find that they were trapped against a wall. Yami sighed when he realized that he had no escape route and sat down placing Yugi on his lap, trying to ignore the sighs that came from the girls and proceeded to tell their 'story' to the attentive girls after their swears of confidentiality.

Jou glanced around him cautiously taking in the serene scenery surrounding him. Finally satisfied that there was no immediate danger to him he sat down on the smooth stone set in the middle of the small peaceful plain and closed his eyes, letting out all the tension and sores in his muscles. A sudden breeze tousled his blonde hair, running its ghostly fingers through them caressing each strand.
"Jou…" Jounouchi tensed up again at the voice behind him. A pair of hands traveled across his shoulders down to rest on his chest.
"Jou." The voice was more insistent, with an edge of annoyance to it. The blonde cringed and leaned back into the arms, tilting his head to look up at the voice's owner's face.
"Seto." He replied calmly, inwardly socking himself in the stomach for even replying, much less for using the brunette's name. But, it had come off his tongue so easily… sounding so intimate.
"Hm." A languid smile curved the CEO's lips as he leaned over Jounouchi's tilted head. A small voice in the blonde's head told him to move, but a glance into the cool blue pools of ice in Seto's face paralyzed him.
Jou gave a small involuntary gasp as he felt hands run over his chest, coming up to cradle his face, his eyes still locked with the brunette's, breathing raggedly as he saw Seto lean in and close his cerulean orbs. He moaned as he felt the other teen's lips graze his own, leaving him strangely dissatisfied. His hands reached up and pulled the brunette's face down again, burying his fingers into the soft silky strands. Jounouchi closed his eyes as his lips met Seto's firm lips again responding fervently to the brunette's hungry caresses, the rational part of him being rapidly buried underneath the piles of emotions he was experiencing.
Out of breath, Jounouchi pulled away from the arms breathing heavily, flushed, and opened his eyes to stare into the clear icy pools of azure, threatening to swallow him…to drown him in their depths, hiding his corpse in the deep caverns beneath…Jounouchi jerked as he was hit with a pain across his face-
"Whoa!" Jou sprang up from the couch breathing heavily the remnants of the dream still not completely dispersed, dancing in front of his eyes. His brown eyes flickered uncertainly at the person sitting next to him pupils dilating as he focused groggily on the face in front of his.
"Sssss-Kaiba!!!!!!!! Whada hells are you doing?"
Seto rolled his eyes at the other boy's antics and stood up from his seat next to the blonde. Stupid, ungrateful mutt… honestly! He was just checking to see what was wrong when the stupid bitch had started to moan in his sleep…Hmph, the pup should be groveling at his feet thanking him for waking him up.
Gods above! He'd noticed that the blonde was moaning like mad in his sleep and decided to go wake him at of a whim of good heart and this is what he got! Granted though his method of waking up wasn't gentle- so what if he slapped the mutt a few times?
"Hmph…" Seto grunted sitting back down at the desk next to the couch and resumed his earlier task of typing on his laptop.
Jounouchi looked at the CEO baffled by his response. Whada hell crawled up his ass 'n died? As if sensing his thoughts the CEO whirled around in his chair to glare at him before swiveling back to face his computer screen. Jounouchi quickly decided not to ask.
Seto Kaiba… Jounouchi mulled in his head… rich snob… arrogant prick… swinish attitude… smart teacher's pet… amazing blue eyes… great kisse-
Jounouchi mentally froze as he went over the last two characteristics he'd listed for the CEO and immediately slapped himself… hard. Ignoring the bemused look the brunette sent over he delved deeper into his dream. He had been kissing Seto… no KAIBA!! He had enjoyed it. Immensely. He was NOT gay. NO WAY! Kaiba's eyes were ordinary, and that was NOT Kaiba in his dream… though he did recall saying his name…
Jounouchi cursed fluently at himself, immediately flushing at the stare the brunette sent over. Wait… Kaiba had been sitting next to him when he woke up…what if-?
The blonde blanched at a sudden notion and launched himself towards Kaiba's desk. He needed to know…
Kaiba looked up from the computer screen, raising an eyebrow elegantly as he waited for the mutt to talk. The stupid thing had stormed over to his desk in a whirlwind, slamming into the seat across from him. When it looked like he was going to be the one to start the talking he sighed and closed the laptop calmly in quick proficient moves.
"What? Cat got your tongue, mutt?" He sneered.
Jounouchi twitched slightly at the taunt and forced down his temper, he didn't want to blow things.
"Nah, just wondered if I were talking in my sleep is all…" He paused expectantly, waiting for Kaiba's response.
Seto smirked at the blonde. Oh…I see, had a naughty dream did we? Fancy me thinking it was a nightmare… oh well… Maybe I can pass my time by leading you on…
"And what if you were?" Jou paled noticeably and cleared his throat nervously. Shit! The prick heard?
"Aaah… nothing!" Jou paused to phrase his next question carefully, " So… what'd you hear?"
Seto rested his elbows on the desk and leaned across the desk so that his face was only inches away from the blonde, enjoying the way that the mutt was squirming in obvious discomfort.
"Well, that's for me to know and you to find out, isn't it?" he whispered huskily.
Jou felt himself flush and shivered at the brunette's voice. What the hell was wrong with him? Desperate to change the subject, he glanced away from the face in front of him and desperately sought a topic.
"So, where's the librarian?" Glancing back at the brunette he was surprised to see the blue eyes darken.
"She isn't here…"
"WHAT??!?!?!!" Jou had forgotten that the librarian had been on her break during the lockdown.
"We're alone." Seto replied shortly, his foul mood returning as he remembered who he was stuck with.
"oh…Are you sure?" Jounouchi asked, not sure he liked the idea of being isolated with the brunette.
"Yes…" Kaiba sighed, burying his face into his hands. He prayed that the headache wouldn't come back… He must've done something to bring this sad fate onto himself…
"Positive?"
"Yes.."
"Absolutely positively sure?"
"YES!" Seto snarled angrily, glaring at the undaunted blonde in front of him, before going back to resting his head in his arms.
"Oh… so…what are you doing?"
"…"
"I'm bored… and hungry…"
Seto groaned in frustration and flung his pen at the talkative blonde, hitting him straight on the forehead.
"SHUT. UP." Seto grated out, clenching his jaw. Normally this wouldn't be a problem for him, but after staying up all night, it was out of the question.
It was going to be a long, long, time before he could see daylight again and every second would be torture…he just knew it and could only pray that he could come out a sane man.
TBC?
