Yami Pandora: Thank you for the reviews.
Nachzes Black-Rider: um… I'm not gonna answer your question, that would be telling, you'll just have to read the fic.
The word 'maniakku' means 'maniac' in Japanese. With this character, you'd have to agree with the name.
I know I said I wouldn't update until I had at least 5 more reviews, but I got soo bored so I just had to do SOMETHING! I mean, try dealing with a loud-mouthed 10 year old sister and a lazy 14 year old brother who is always pestering you for something. Not to mention the 3 year old sister. Too many siblings, I have 5 of the damn things! I need to do something to keep me distracted from the noise!
Chapter 6
(Last Time)
Yami wrapped his arms gently around Seto, being careful not to knock any of his injuries. They held each other until they fell asleep.
(This Time)
Seto was awakened by the sunlight pouring through his bedroom window. He felt two arms wrapped around him, and heard the light breathing of someone. 'I remember now. Yami spent the night and… we… kissed' Seto thought. He was still shocked by the events that had happened. Partly to do with Maniakku, and partly to with Yami kissing him. Although it was Seto that had confessed, it was Yami that had made the first move, although Seto hadn't expected him to love him back. Seto turned on his side to face Yami. 'Yami looks cute when he's sleeping' Seto thought. He thought Yami looked like an angel when he was asleep. When he was awake, he was full of confidence, but when he was asleep he was so peaceful. When Seto brushed one of Yami's golden bangs from his face, he stirred and Seto removed his hand from Yami's face.
A few minutes later, Yami awoke to find Seto in his arms watching him. "Good morning, how are you feeling this morning?" he asked. Then a shocked and guilty look came across his face. "Gomen, stupid question I should never have asked" Yami said quickly. Seto merely smiled and lifted his head up to capture Yami's lips with his. Yami moaned with the contact and brushed Seto's lips with his tongue. 'Not this time' Seto thought and took dominance of the kiss. He explored Yami's hot mouth with his tongue earning more moans from Yami. He broke the kiss and smiled again at Yami. "It's alright, I'm fine now" he said. Yami smiled and pulled Seto further into his arms. Seto rested his head against Yami's chest and listened to his quiet heartbeat. "GOOD MORNING BIG BROTHER, YAMI" yelled hyper Mokuba. Seto groaned and buried his head into Yami's chest. He didn't feel like dealing with a hyperactive kid at the moment. Yami laughed to himself. He was seeing something he thought he'd never see. Seto was acting like teenager. 'I guess Seto only acts normal around people he can trust and who he cares about' he thought.
Currently Seto and Mokuba were arguing whether or not Seto should go to school. "You're hurt. You should stay home until you are fully healed" Mokuba was saying while Seto said
"I can't skip school, it would look suspicious"
"Well, come up with an excuse. Say you to go to Kaiba Corp" Mokuba retorted.
"You know they will follow that up" Seto said. Mokuba sighed in defeat and said quietly
"You could always tell them what happened". Seto nearly exploded
"WHAT? I am not going to tell anyone what has happened! It will be all over the media! This is not to leave this room, understand?". Mokuba and Yami nodded. Seto calmed down and said "Gomen, I shouldn't have exploded like that. It's not your fault". He looked ashamed of himself and bowed his head. Yami placed his hand under Seto's chin and lifted his face to look at him. "You have a right to be angry about what happened, Seto. I just wish we could find the bastard, then I'll send him to the worst corner of the Shadow Realm. I'll even make sure the Blue Eyes White Dragons are on him" Yami finished with a smirk. Seto eyes teared and a smile lit his face. He buried his head into Yami's chest again and whispered "Please do. It will do the world a favour".
"Well I'd better get ready for school, or I'll be late" Yami said. Seto got up.
"I'm coming too" he said determinedly.
"But Seto…" Mokuba started, but was cut off.
"Mokuba, I am going to school, so drop it" Seto said firmly.
"OK, but take it easy, and Yami, you'd better stay with him" Mokuba said.
"Alright, Mother" Seto teased. Mokuba pouted and turned away with his arms folded. The other two laughed at the child's antics and rose from the bed. "Um, Mokuba… we need to get dressed" said Seto.
"OK" Mokuba said cheerfully and bounced out of the room. Yami blinked.
"Are his moods always changing as rapidly as this?"
"You'll get used to it" was the reply. They both quickly got dressed and walked down stairs, hand in hand. They walked into the kitchen, where Mokuba was eating what looked like a large bowl of heavily sugared cereal. Seto groaned again. "Mokuba, what have I told you about eating so much sugar? Your teachers are going to be phoning me again". Mokuba pouted and continued eating the cereal. Seto sighed and turned to Yami. "So, what do you want for breakfast?" he asked
"You can cook?" Yami asked, astonished. He could not believe someone as rich as the Kaiba's cooked their own food.
"Of course I can cook. Even though we are rich, we still try to have at least some normalcy in our lives" Seto said, with false offence in his voice. Yami just looked at Seto, still bewildered. There was so much he didn't know about Seto. Oh well. He'd have plenty of time to learn. Seto walked over to a cupboard and pulled a random box out. "You like pancakes?" he asked. Yami nodded and sat down next to Mokuba while Seto began preparing the mix for the pancakes. Yami watched with fascination as Seto moved around the kitchen like a professional chef. "Where did you learn to cook anyway?" Yami asked curiously. Seto frowned.
"I guess I taught myself really. When we were little, before we ended up in the orphanage, my father was depressed because of our mother's death. He went out and got drunk, leaving me to take care of Mokuba. Because of his neglect of us, I taught myself to cook and took care of Mokuba" he said.
'He's had such a hard past. No wonder he hides his emotions and pushes everyone away. Everyone he knew when he was little has hurt him' Yami thought.
A few minutes later, Seto walked over to the table with two plates of pancakes and some sugar and syrup. He placed one of the plates in front of Yami and sat down next to him. Both he and Yami poured syrup over their pancakes and started eating silently. Mokuba felt the silence was awkward, so he brought up a random subject. "How's everyone doing, Yami?" he asked.
"Everyone's fine. Grandpa's shop is doing well, Tea's got a new job, working as a clothes shop assistant, Duke and Tristan are the same as ever, fighting over Serenity and Joey's trying to kill them for going near his sister" Yami said, the last part ending with a laugh. Even Seto looked amused. The awkward silence fell upon the table again and Mokuba was growing restless. He had a question in his mind, and was desperate to have it answered. "Hey, Seto?" Mokuba asked.
"Yes?" Seto said.
"Um… areyouandYamiacouplenow?" Mokuba said quickly in one breath. Seto and Yami blinked, only just managing to understand what Mokuba had said. They shared an awkward glance and said "well you should try to work it out, you saw us last night didn't you?" Seto said.
"Yes… but… Are you serious?" Mokuba asked awkwardly.
"Yes, we are serious" Yami said, breaking into the conversation.
"YAY" Mokuba shouted. He leapt up and hugged Seto and Yami for the second time in less than 24 hours and said to Yami "you better not hurt my brother, or I'm gonna come after you and torture you with a spoon" Mokuba said, half jokingly, half seriously.
"I won't hurt Seto, but… why a spoon?"
"Because it's blunt. It will hurt you more" Mokuba said. Yami blinked, then laughed and ruffled Mokuba's hair, to which Mokuba scowled and walked out.
When Yami and Seto finished eating, Seto put the plates into a dish washer and walked into the living room to retrieve his metal brief case, which still had dried blood on it. Seto took back to the kitchen and rubbed it down with a cloth and warm water. He walked back in the front room to see Yami stood there with is school bag, and a severe lack of a blazer. "Where's your blazer?" Seto asked.
"I used it to stop some of the bleeding yesterday" Yami said.
"Sorry" Seto said.
"Don't be. You would have bled to death, you're more important than a blazer anyway" Yami said with a comforting smile.
"MOKUBA, WE'RE LEAVING" Seto bellowed towards the stairs. Some scurrying around was heard, followed by the slam of a door. Foot steps were heard running along the hall, sounding like an earth quake, then Mokuba appeared at the stairs. They walked outside and got inside the limo. When they were buckled in, the driver drove towards Mokuba's school. The short journey was made in silence, with only the sound of the engine humming away.
When they came to Mokuba's school, Mokuba jumped out of the limo, said a loud "BYE" and ran over to his friends. They then headed to their own school, still silent. When the limo stopped outside the school, Seto held Yami's arm and said "Do you want to tell your friends about us?"
"If you want to, then yes" Yami replied.
"Can we wait a little? I'm still not used to openly showing emotion to anyone but Mokuba, is that alright?" Seto asked. He sounded worried that Yami would be upset, and Yami picked up on this. "Yes, we can wait to tell them. Lets just make sure it's on our terms and not the media's" Yami teased. They leaned in for a quick kiss and once it was over, they immediately got out of the limo and walked towards the school entrance, preparing themselves for the others reactions.
Random Song – Nightwish, Nemo
This is me for forever
One of the lost ones
The one without a name
Without an honest heart as compass
This is me for forever
One without a name
These lines the last endeavour
To find the missing lifeline
Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
All I wish is to dream again
My loving heart
Lost in the dark
For hope I'd give my everything
My flower, withered between
The pages 2 and 3
The once and forever bloom gone with my sins
Walk the dark path
Sleep with angels
Call the past for help
Touch me with your love
And reveal to me my true name
Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
All I wish is to dream again
My loving heart
Lost in the dark
For hope I'd give my everything
Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
Oh how I wish to dream again
Once and for all
And all for once
Nemo my name forevermore
Nemo sailing home
Nemo letting go
Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
All I wish is to dream again
My loving heart
Lost in the dark
For hope I'd give my everything
Oh how I wish
For soothing rain
Oh how I wish to dream again
Once and for all
And all for once
Nemo my name forevermore
