Chapter Two- The Meeting
As Yami approached the castle, he was grabbed by his sister, Mai and dragged to his room. He didn't hear a thing she was saying as she spruced him up for the evening with Seto. His thoughts were on Yugi and how to properly meet him. Yugi was an adorable human and so much like himself. So pure, so innocent, so...
"Yami, are you listening?"
"Sorry, Mai. I was preoccupied."
"I should say so. I was saying that you're lucky to be bethrothed to Kaiba and you need to be polite to him."
"But, I don't like him."
"You never even met him, so be nice. He can't wait to meet you." Giving his hair one final stroke, Mai pushed him to the throne room doors. Planting a kiss on his cheek, she said, "Go get him, brother." before swimming off.
Squaring his shoulders, the innocent dark pushed the doors open to reveal his fater, another merman that had to be Mr. Kaiba, and a boy about his age. That had to be Seto.
Seto had an icy calm fascade that was well-matched with his deep blue eyes. His hair was the same color as Bakura's eyes and a tail as white as the foam on the sea. He was handsome, there was no doubt, but Yami knew a certain human that was much cuter.
"Ah, here's my son. Gozaburo, I'd like to present my eldest son, Prince Yami. Yami, this is Gozaburo Kaiba and his son, Seto."
Yami bowed to his guest, who returned the gesture. Seto approached the prince and began to circle him, inspecting him from all sides. His inspection caused the prince's fins to twitch slightly from nervousness. Seto smirked from this interesting response. He found Yami attractive, but wasn't sure if he was the one. Knowing a method that never failed him, he took Yami's hand and an electric jolt shot through his hand from the touch. Yes, this was the one he wanted to marry. This one was special.
"Yami, it is my understanding that we will not marry until I turn sixteen the following week. Until then, I present this simple pearl hairpin as a token of my affection and our engagement." Seto held up a pale pink pearl surrounded by four pink petals that were a shade darker than the pearl. The entire thing was mounted on a gold hairpin. Seto placed the pin above Yami's right ear so that it gave a resemblance to a butterflyfish. "At the cermony, the hairpin will be moved to the left ear."
For the rest of the evening, the foursome talked. The fathers discussed the benefits that would come of this union. The sons made small talk, trying to find some common ground. There was none, just as Yami suspected. He knew then and there that he couldn't go through with this marriage. He loved another, although Yugi didn't know that yet. But, tomorrow night, he would know of Yami's feelings for him.
