Chapter 12

Ok, for once I didn't get that many reviews on this chapter, but I am also updating the next day, just so everyone knows, my review goal is at least 100, I have never had that many reviews before at all, so please help me, please? I will give everyone a cookie and penny, kk? Now on with the story.

Kaiba tried for almost a full hour to wake the blonde up, filling the tub with more hot water each time it got even the slightest bit cold. Mokuba couldn't understand a few things that had happened over the night. One, why would his brother lose his self control so easily? He could have held over even if he hadn't eaten for at least two days, if three. The only conclusion to that question was that Seto had gone without for either four to six days without something to eat.

Number two. Why did he look so worried over the blonde he had bitten? His brother never showed worry for anyone but him, no one! But so many emotions and feelings were washing over Seto's face at the moment that Mokuba was afraid that Seto would pass out from the stress before anything else had a chance to kick in. "Big brother?"

"Mokuba? Will you get into my closet and pull out some of my spare flannel pajama's please?" Seto asked, turning his weary face up to his little brother. "We need to get him out of this water." Seto said calmly as he brushed the blonde bangs from the pale boys face. "I am so sorry Jou."

The blonde still hadn't woken up, not even when he was picked up out of the water into cold air. Yes, he had shivered, quite a bit until he was wrapped up in a big fluffy warm towel. But Seto was worried that he hadn't woken up yet,even when Seto had redressed him he didn't wake, though he knew why. Draining blood is draining needed energy, the pup had no energy left to sustain his wakefullness, he needed to sleep. Seto settled him down onto his bed before leaving the room, Mokuba hightailing it after him, stopping his big brother in the hallway.

"You almost killed him Seto! How could you? how could you lost your self control so easily!?" Mokuba watched his brother slam his own back against the opposite wall and slide down into a sitting position. "How long has it been since you have eaten? Be honest!"

"Around four to five days I am guessing."

"You're guessing?! As in you don't know! You idiot!" Mokuba shouted, watching his brother stare blankly at the floor.

Jou's eyes fluttered as he started to join the concious world. But the reason why he was waking up wasn't because he couldn't sleep any longer, it was because he could hear screaming and ranting right outside his door. He sat up but quickly stopped his movement, hand moving straight to his neck with a hiss. "What the hell?"

He had to think for a little bit before all the memories came crashing into him like a giant title wave. His crying on Seto, Seto's teeth growing, Seto... Seto bit him? Jou couldn't believe it, Seto had bit him, and from how tired he was, probably drank his fill as well.

Realization hit Jou as he remembered that his wings grew darker with each little loss of blood. He stretched out a hand behind him and grabbed for a wing, pulling it in front of him as best he could, he looked at the color in the dim light. It was a dull gray color, but his wing was still shimmering to say the least.

He slowly stood from the bed, still tipsy from lack of strength and made his way to the door, vaguely noticing the screaming had stopped. He cracked open the door and looked out of it, seeing Seto sitting across from his room looking about ready to hurl himself off of the tallest building in the city, or at least just hurl.

"Seto?"

Kaiba looked up, surprised to see the blonde standing in front of him. When the hell did he wake up? "Jounouchi, you should be in bed, resting." He said, staring back at the floor, wishing it would just swallow him up then and there.

"But what about you?"

"Why do you care? I just about killed you Jou! I came so fucking close to killing you! And you are actually standing in front of me, speaking to me as though I am human!?" Seto looked up at him, he could feel tears welling up in his eyes, though why, he didn't know.

"But you stopped! You had the perfect chance to get the worthless spineless mutt out of your life forever, but you stopped!" Jou said, landing on his knees in front of the brunette. "Just why? Why did you bite me? why didn't you tell me you were a vampire? Why?"

"Why are you willing to talk to me after what I did to you?" Set's voice was cracking as the tears threatened to spill and were affecting his voice. "I didn't want to bite you, I didn't want to drink that pure liquid. But it tasted and smelled so good, my animal instincts took over! I couldn't stiop myself! I- I don't know why I did it... I, all I know it that, is that, is that I am sorry, I just didn't want too!"

Tears were falling completely know, rolling down his face in rivers. Jou couldn't take it anymore. He knew Seto was crying over him, and it just made him feel awful. He wasn't lokoing at the big bad CEO of Kaiba Corp Seto Kaiba. He was looking a ten year old little boy who knew he didn't something wrong and was very sorry over the whole thing.

Jou did the only thing he could think of, he wrapped his arms around the brunette in a tight hug. Christ, Seto did the same for him, why not return the favor? He noticed as Kaiba didn't even try ot push away, in fact, he welcomed the embrace, and hugged him back, crying into the blonde's shoulder. "Don't worry Seto. I forgive you."
