gyrrlgenius: Thanks! I'm so glad it's not cliche, I like to go for the more original stuff
CrossHunt-s: Here's the next chapter!
anaraz: sorry it was so short, I think it's quality not quantity, or at least hope it is, well, this is longer.
Flame Swordswoman: here's your more! more! more!
rubisora: well I'm glad you'll wait around for me since I'm a slow updater. And this chapter is longer.
Saelbu: Thank you! Excellent? Thank you very much, I'm blushing here.
Okay, here's the update, finally, and it is longer than the last. Sorry! Anyways, enjoy! And I actually put a little Mokie and Shizuka action in! Yes, Katsuya and Seto get their's too.
The door slammed causing the walls of the mansion to shake. Katsuya winced as he stood shifting from foot to foot. Seto had excused them from their classes for the rest of the day.
"Katsuya," the blond turned back to the twitching boy, his normally pretty eyes flickering from one side of the room to another as his fingers twitched. "I need it."
Katsuya sank against the ground as he watched Mokuba struggle with his own withdrawal. He had never told Seto that he still sold the drugs. He needed the money. It was all that had mattered. But it wasn't what mattered anymore. He had made a mistake. He had fallen for some one.
"Katsuya! What's wrong?" Shizuka gasped as soon as she saw her brother, his head lowered towards the ground.
"He could never understand what my life was like." Katsuya shook his head, trying to clear the horrible memories from his mind. "Just leave me alone Shizuka. Let me die alone. It's what a horrible whelp like me deserves."
Mokuba jumped out of his skin as he heard the resounding smack. Mokuba's jaw dropped as he saw the sight of Katsuya holding his cheek and Shizuka standing over him, her arm drawn back to hit him again if need be.
The tears streamed down her face as her auburn hair fell in her face. "Don't do this to us Katsuya. Don't do this to us. We all love you."
Katsuya gave a brief nod and stood up, crossing over to the door as Shizuka held Mokuba tightly, close to her breast. He was shaking and quivering from his withdrawal as Shizuka stroked his hair. "It's going to be alright Mokuba. Just keep on fighting it." She softly kissed his forehead as his eyes slowly slid shut, curled up against Shizuka.
Katsuya swallowed as he gave another glance towards his sister, "take care of him," he whispered as he steeled himself and knocked on the door.
The door opened and Katsuya's eyes met Seto's though they had turned colder than ever.
"We need to talk," Katsuya said as he swallowed.
Seto slammed the door shut but Katsuya forced his hand against it, quickly sticking his foot against it to jam it.
"Now Seto."
"Like hell, get lost. I don't need your pity."
"No, but I lost the bet. I lose; you get a boyfriend for life. No backing out. I'm in this for the long haul, I just thought you were too."
Seto stood there for what seemed to all the onlookers as forever before he finally opened the door wider and let Katsuya enter.
Mokuba was shaking in the bed as Shizuka stroked his hair, even though it calmed him the struggle with withdrawal was still harassing his body.
"I hope our brothers figure this out," Shizuka muttered absent-mindedly. "Why did you do it?"
Mokuba sat silent for a moment as he glanced down at the floor. How could he tell his girlfriend that it was to make him feel loved? It wasn't that he didn't know that both Shizuka and Seto loved him; no, it was that Seto's love seemed as unattainable as ever and Shizuka's subtle caring was not near enough to fill the void it left.
"It made me feel good," Mokuba said, giving out a lame excuse.
"Oh, so good is how you feel now."
"No," he swallowed, trying to ease out the dryness of his throat. "I, I need it to feel good."
"But that isn't the only thing that can make you feel good." Shizuka pointed out as she propped herself up on one arm and smiled at Mokuba.
"I don't know what else," Mokuba whispered as he tried to focus his shifty eyes.
Shizuka reached towards him and played with the end of a lock of hair. "I'm sure I could make you feel good."
Mokuba shook his head. He didn't want Shizuka doing anything she would later regret, just for his sake.
"Let me help you forget about the drugs," Shizuka said as she took Mokuba's chin and tilted his head towards her. She leaned down and planted her lips on his softly, pressing in against him as he accepted the embrace.
"All this time I trusted you! You were selling that, that stuff to my brother!"
"I'm sorry. You have to believe me," Katsuya pleaded with Seto. He took Seto's hands but the CEO just ripped away from Katsuya's grip. "If I could do it all over again I would have never even sold the dammed stuff."
"But you can't turn back the clock, can you? You can't fix what your drugs are doing to my brother."
"I can't erase it," Katsuya said as he turned away from Seto. "But I can help him through it." He slowly went around Seto and wrapped his arms around Seto's waist. "I'm not going to forget about you either. You've showed me having a different sexuality isn't evil. I've cursed myself for taking some sort of twisted joy in what Maeno did to me. I found myself only wanting other men, cursed with that I hated myself and became a fake homophobe." Katsuya leaned against Seto and nipped lightly at his neck before nuzzling into him as he continued talking. "It was so hard to resist you," he said his seductive voice so near Seto's ear. "The things Maeno and Jonouchi-san did to me I won't repeat."
"I better go check on Mokuba," Seto quickly said but he couldn't escape from Katsuya's tight hold.
"I'm sure Shizuka's taking care of things. I trust my sister, though I barely know her."
"How are you so sure?"
"Because I'm sure she knows me pretty darn well." Katsuya whispered as he finally released Seto and used his strength to shove the taller teen down onto the bed.
"Looks like they stopped fighting," Shizuka said as she noticed the exceptional amount of noise from the room next door had calmed down. She gave Mokuba a hand and helped him up out of the room. They ever slowly tiptoed into Seto's room and Mokuba pushed the door open, his jaw dropping.
"What is it Mokuba?" Shizuka asked as she pushed her way through. She knocked him over unintentionally but as she glanced up she couldn't hold back the giggles. In the bed was her brother holding Seto closely. The brunet looked peaceful lying there in his arms as he stroked Seto's hair.
"Oh boy," Mokuba muttered as he shook his head.
Shizuka smiled at him. 'Oh boy' was indeed right.
