Okay, here is chapter two! (sigh) Guess I have to do another disclaimer…

Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh or the characters and I never will! You happy now?

-This is a note to the readers: this chapter may get a bit confusing. Joey is referred to as 'Kat' or 'Katsuya' by the DOOM bikers and by his friends when the DOOM bikers are around. Valon, Alister, and Raphael think Joey is a girl, so they refer to him as one. Well, good luck and happy reading!

From Chapter 1:

The phone rang three times. He bit his lip. 'Come on! Please pick up, Kat!' He begged silently. He heard a soft click and the phone was picked up. "Hello and thank you for calling Pizza Hut! How may I take your order?" The voice was that of a preppy young lady. Valon blinked in shock, the phone slipping from his hand.

Dancing with the Enemy

Chapter 2

Valon blinked back his tears. 'Pizza Hut?' He thought to himself. The brunet sighed and ran his hands through his hair. 'I was so sure that she liked me, though…' A thought struck him.

--Flashback:

Kat concentrated fully on the dance, trying to ignore Valon completely…

…"You're saying that you don't love her anymore? I thought that every guy was in love with her…after all, she is the most beautiful girl in Japan."… "But don't you have a girl friend now?" She asked.

"Nah, I haven't even felt like dating since she and I parted ways. There has only been one other person I have ever liked…you kind of remind me of that person." Valon said. Kat blushed. She laughed nervously. "Yeah right, I bet you say that to every girl you meet." She looked away from Valon as she said this.

… "He's not my boyfriend! I don't even know him that well!" Kat shouted.

Kat grimaced. "At least you are an optimistic person…" She muttered.

She smiled brightly as she wrote down her number and handed it to him.

--End Flashback

He sighed. Maybe she didn't like him after all. Feeling suddenly tired, Valon laid back on his bed. He pressed the back of his hand against his forehead and tried to fight back his tears. 'Great…' he thought, 'she's the only person I have wanted to spend time with since my Duel with Joseph Wheeler, and she hates me!' He groaned and rolled over onto his side. 'Why does it always have to be a blond?' He asked himself sullenly.

Raphael poked his head into Valon's room when he heard the brunet groan. "You okay, Val? Pining for your new lover?" He asked amusedly. He received another groan in response. "You could always call her, you know." He suggested. Valon sighed and sat up, pulling his knees up to his chest and wrapping his arms loosely around them. "Already did, mate." He said solemnly. Raphael blinked. "And…then what happened?" He pressed. Valon sighed. "Raph…she gave me the number for Pizza Hut!" The blond man blinked. "Maybe it slipped her mind and she gave you the wrong number." He suggested. Valon's eyes lit up with a spark of hope. "Maybe…" He said, wishing he could confirm that. Raphael smiled sadly. "You'll just have to wait and see if she calls." He told her friend. The blond hoped she would call Valon; he was so in love with her. It would suck for him to get over Mai just to have his heart broken by another pretty blond. But…Raphael was still a bit suspicious of 'Kat'. She seemed okay, but he knew she was hiding something. He could see it in her amber-colored eyes. And the look Mai had when she saw the new girl…as if she had known her…that made things seem even fishier. He patted Valon on the shoulder. "Don't worry. I'm sure she will call sooner or later." He told the brunet over his shoulder as he exited the room. '…Hopefully…' he added in his mind.

With the Yugi-tachi:

Mai blinked. Duke stared. Tristen finally broke the silence. "You did what!" Joey cringed, clasping his hands over his ears. He hissed at his friend. "I had no choice! I would be screwed if he called me when I wasn't home and reached my answering machine!" Joey explained. Yugi sighed. "Well, what if he calls the number you gave him? Don't you think that would hurt more than the truth?" He asked. Yugi's puppy-dog eyes stared sadly up at Joey. Joey sighed, but said nothing. Duke smirked. "Besides, it's pretty cheesy if you ask me…Pizza…cheesy…get it!" He asked, laughing at his own joke. The others sweat-dropped. Yugi looked away. 'I should have known Joey would do something like this…we're going to have to think fast if we want to salvage this relationship!' He thought desperately. A crafty smile appeared on his face…one that would have made Marik or Bakura proud…had they not been making out with their boyfriends at the time. Joey squirmed when he saw Yugi's evil look. "YYugi? You're not planning something are ya?" He asked nervously. The shorter boy smiled at him. "I just got the greatest idea! I'll tell you guys about it in a minute; I have to make a phone call first." Yugi said as he dashed out of the room. Mai smiled over at Joey. "Well, I guess I can't blame you Joey…I would have done the same thing." She admitted.

With Yugi... the small teen picked up the phone and fished a piece of paper out of his pocket. Oh, this wasn't just any number…it was the number belonging to Mokuba Kaiba. He smiled at the memory.

--Flashback

Mokuba pulled some paper out of his pocket-notebook and wrote a telephone number on it. He handed it to Yugi and gave the teen a soft peck on the lips. "Here. This is my Cell phone number. You can call me anytime, Yugi. Just call if you ever need something…or want to gossip." He said, smiling brightly. Yugi nodded, blushing brightly.

--End Flashback

Yugi smiled. "If anyone can help, it's Mokuba." He said to himself as he dialed the number. It rang a few times before the phone was answered. "Mokuba Kaiba here, who's calling?" Came the customary response. Yugi giggled. "Hey Mokie, it's Yugi." He said. Mokuba laughed. "Oh! Hi Yugi! Any new gossip for me on the 'love birds'?" He asked slyly. Yugi sighed. "Yeah, I think Joey may have blown it with Valon…Joey gave him the number for Pizza Hut…" He said, trailing off. "Ouch! That was a bit harsh of him!" Mokuba said. Yugi nodded, even though he knew Mokuba couldn't see him. "Yeah…I have a plan though, but I'm going to need your and brother's help to make it a success." He told the raven haired boy. He could feel the boy's smirk over the phone. "Oooh! Do tell!" He urged. Yugi smiled. "All we have to do is create a romantic atmosphere, and give them a few nudges. They should be able to do the rest and in the meantime, the rest of us can have fun and relax." He said. "How about a romantic dance on one of Seto's Yachts? It's plenty big enough and with the right touches, it could be perfect! Besides, there wouldn't be all the nosey by-standers." Mokuba said. Yugi smirked. "Mokuba, I love the way you think! All we have to do is convince your brother to help." He said. Mokuba laughed. "Well…I do still have those pictures…" Yugi laughed. It was almost too perfect. The two boys said their goodbyes and Yugi returned to his friends. Mokuba set about convincing his brother to host the party, which Mokuba and Yugi had decided to code-name 'Operation: Love Fest'. It was their first official mission together since they had decided to go out. Both were excited.

Yugi came back into the living room, smiling from ear-to-ear. Duke smirked. "So…what is this plan of yours?" He asked. Yugi reclaimed his seat on the couch. "I just got off the phone with Mokuba. We've made plans for a party…another dance, which will take place on one of Kaiba's Yachts." He said. Joey got a sinking feeling. "Why am I getting the feeling that we're all doomed?" Yugi smiled at him. "Not all of us…just you!" he said sweetly. "You're going to call Valon and invite him to the dance. It's to make up for 'accidentally' giving him the wrong number." Yugi explained. Joey squirmed in his seat. "Awe, do I have to?" He whined. Yugi rolled his eyes. "Well, yeah! It's the entire point of the party, Joey!" Joey groaned and hung his head. Mai laughed. "Sounds like fun! So, when is the party and who is invited?" She asked. "All of you guys, of course, and Kaiba and Mokuba will be there…It is their Yacht…" Tristen laughed. "Hey, doesn't that mean you guys will have to cross-dress again?" He asked. Yugi blinked. "Hm...I hadn't thought to that…I guess we would have to. Valon already saw Duke as a female, and I have to go as a girl, because I am going as Mokuba's 'girlfriend' and if I went as a male it would be suspicious anyways. Tristen can go as Duke's 'boyfriend' and Yami can say that he came along with Tristen, but that the others were busy. I don't think Valon knows, or has met Malik, Marik, Ryou, or Bakura; so it doesn't matter what they do…and Mai can go as Joey's 'new best friend'." He said. The others nodded in response. Mai smiled and flashed a 'victory sign' (also known as a 'peace sign') and smiled. "Wouldn't miss it for the world, hun!" She declared. The group continued to plan and chat quietly (aside from Marik, Malik, Bakura and Yami, who were still making out) until the phone rang. Yugi stood up to answer it. "Oh, that's probably Mokuba calling me back." He told them as he ran to answer the phone.

"Hello?" He asked tentatively, whoever had called him had an I.D. blocker. "Yugi put Wheeler on the phone." The masculine voice demanded. He blinked in surprise. "Sure, just a minute…" He said, carefully laying the phone down and sprinting back to the living room. "Kaiba's on the phone. He wants to talk to you Joey." He replied. The blond blinked. "Huh? What could Moneybags possibly want with me?" He asked as he walked into the other room. He picked up the phone and held it up to his ear. "Kaiba? What's this about?" He asked cautiously. "I agree to host the party, and have only one request in return." He said, pausing. Joey bit his lip. "And that would be?" The blond asked, slightly curious. Kaiba sighed. "Just get your lover-boy to bring Alister along…" He said. Joey smiled. "Okay. I'll see what I can do." He replied. Kaiba paused for a moment. "…Good, that is all." The CEO told him and hung up. Joey sighed and went to relay the news to Yugi and co.

Five minutes later, Joey sat down by the phone, slip of paper in hand. He sighed and began dialing the number. After the fourth ring, he was afraid nobody would answer. Then a deep voice answered him. "Hello?" The voice asked. 'It's Raphael…' He realized. He took a deep breathe, to calm his nerves. "Oh, hi…" He replied in his girly voice he had used at the dance. "Aren't you Valon's friend? Is he there?" Joey asked nervously. Raphael was quiet for a moment. "Yeah, let me get him for you." Joey heard him set the phone down. Joey sighed in relief. 'C'mon Joey! This isn't hard!' He chided himself. "Hello?" Another male asked. It was Valon. Joey's heart almost stopped. "Um..hi. It's Kat, remember me?" He asked hopefully. Valon laughed. "Of course I do." He said. Joey laughed nervously. "I was just calling to make sure I gave you the right number…I just moved and I have a habit of accidentally giving the wrong number to people. I feel so stupid afterwards!" He explained (it wasn't too far from the truth…he had just moved into a new apartment a two months before). "Oh…" Valon said, obviously buying Joey's lye. Joey smiled. Now was his chance. "Before I forget…I wanted to invite you and your friends to a private dance held by Seto Kaiba. It's supposed to be pretty cool. It's on a Yacht!" He said with fake cheery enthusiasm. Valon paused. "How do you know Seto Kaiba?" He asked. Joey mentally cursed himself and ran over what Yugi had said. "Oh! My best friend, Yuki, is dating Mokuba Kaiba. Seto Kaiba was kind of forced into holding a party for Yuki and some of our friends." Valon laughed. "Well, I can probably get Raphael to come…but I'm not sure if Alister will or not…" Joey panicked. "Please make him come! I haven't met him yet!" He said, trying to sound convincing. Valon sighed. "I guess I could always drag him there if he says no…" He replied. Joey giggled at the mental picture of Alister bound and gagged. Joey smiled. "Well, I guess I will see you there, then." He said. "Wait, when and where is it being held?" He asked. Joey blinked. He had forgotten about that. "It's tomorrow starting at nine o'clock pm. The Yacht is in the Domino harbor…you can't miss it. It's the largest one there and has K.C. painted on the side. Dress is semi-formal, and snacks and refreshments will be provided." He informed the brunet. "Okay, I will be there." Valon replied. "Don't forget to bring your friends!" Joey reminded him. They said goodbye and hung up.

Valon smiled as he hung up the phone. Then a bad thought occurred to him. 'Crud! I still never got her number…' He remembered. Sighing, he left the room to find his friends and convince them to come along.

Joey sighed and returned to the group. He smiled. "It worked." He told them. Yugi laughed. "Now we just have to plan for the party and hope they show up." He replied. Mai smirked. "Guess you guys are gonna be raiding closets again, huh? You looked great when getting ready on your own, but this time I'm going to make you look fabulous!" She promised.

Valon walked into Alister's room and found the red-headed boy reading a book. The brunet sighed and sat down in the chair beside the bed, which Alister was currently occupying. The other boy glanced up at him briefly, then retuned to his book. "What?" He demanded. Valon sighed. "I want you to come with me to a dance tomorrow, I'm going to invite Raph too." He said. Alister rolled his eyes. "You're not a baby Valon. Go by yourself." He said disinterestedly. Valon frowned. He had figured Alister would be in one of these moods as it happened quite frequently. "But Kat is going to be there and she wants to meet you!" He said desperately. Alister raised an eyebrow. "Hm, a new girlfriend, eh? Took you long enough to quit moping around." He commented. Valon blushed. "Hey, what 'bout you, mate? You ain't had a girlfriend since I met you!" He accused. Alister rolled his eyes again. "I don't feel like dating right now. And as for the dance, it sounds interesting…but, no. I won't go with you." He said stubbornly. Valon snarled. "Yes you will! Even If I have to tie you up and drag you there!" Alister glared back. "No I won't!" He yelled.

"Yes you will!"

"No I won't!"

"Yes!"

"No!'

"Yes!"

"No!

"Yes!"

"No!'

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"NO!"

"Yes!"

Alister's eye twitched. He could already feel a headache coming on. When Valon was bent on doing something…he was fiercely determined. The brunet could (and would) argue for HOURS if necessary. Alister growled at him.

"NO!"

"Yes!"

"…Valon! Shut up and leave me alone!"

"Not until you agree to go!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

Alister sighed heavily. He couldn't stand it anymore. He had to get the brat out of his room before he was forced to pull his hair out.

"Fine! I'll go! Just get out of my room!" He shouted. Valon smiled brightly. Annoying Alister always worked…err…sometimes, other times it earned him bodily harm and a death threat. But, it had worked this time so the brunet couldn't complain. He then bounded off to find Raphael.

He found the muscle-bound blond in the kitchen. "Well, how was your conversation with your new friend?" Raphael smirked when Valon blushed. "It was good." He replied. Raphael smiled. "I told you she would call." He reminded the brunet, although he himself was a bit surprised. Valon grinned. "Oh, and she invited us to a dance that is being held on one of Kaiba's Yachts. It's a private party. One of Kat's friends is dating Kaiba's kid brother." He explained. Raphael nodded. "Sounds like fun. From the sound of your argument, I'm guessing that you 'convinced' Alister to attend as well?" He asked. Valon nodded proudly. Raphael sighed. "You do know he's going kill you one of these days, right?" He asked worriedly. Valon shrugged it off. "Eh, I'm just gonna have to enjoy life till then, right?" He asked. "Did you inform him that the party is being held by the Kaiba brothers?" The blond asked. Valon smiled widely. "Nope!" He said. Raphael sighed heavily, already sensing the impending doom…

--10:04 am the next day

With Yugi and co…Mokuba looked up from his check-list. He nodded thoughtfully. "The ribbons were a nice touch, Yugi." He commented to his boyfriend. Yugi nodded. "What kind of refreshments should we put out?" He asked. Mokuba chewed on the end of his pen. "Punch, for starters. We could also put out some soda. I would say wine…but most of us aren't old enough to drink." He said. "Coffee." Kaiba suggested as he passed them to get to the dance-floor. Mokuba frowned. "You're probably the only one who would drink coffee at the dance, Seto!" He said. His brother rolled his eyes. "Then put a pot of coffee out for me." He replied. Mokuba sighed. "Why can't I have a normal brother?" He asked. Yugi laughed. "Cause then you wouldn't be a rich CEO of Kaiba corp." Mokuba giggled.

Joey sighed. "What are the rest of us doing here?" he asked Mai, "We're just in the way!" He continued. Yugi smiled at them. "You guys should go to the Mall or something to kill time. It'll be hours before we have to get ready for the dance." He told them. "I'll stay here with Mokuba to make sure everything is running smoothly." The others nodded and headed out.

It was now a quarter to seven and everyone was once again scrambling to get ready. The group split again. Yugi, Malik, Ryou, Joey, Duke, and Mai going to the girl's (Tea, Serenity, and Ishizu's) apartment; Yami, Bakura, Marik and Tristen went back to the game shop; while Kaiba and Mokuba returned to the Kaiba mansion. Malik and Ryou weren't required to cross-dress, but figured it would be fun to dress up again anyways.

Yugi's hair was fixed quickly this time since the others knew how to deal with the situation. He wore the same outfit as the night before, as did Ryou and Malik. Their make-up was also done the same.

Duke's dress was emerald green and matched his eyes. The trimming on his dress was silver. There was a slit down one side. Also, a black satin bow was tied around his waist. His shoes matched the dress and his elbow-length gloves were white. His black hair was let down once again, and expertly curled by Mai. His eye-shadow and earring were also silver.

Joey looked stunning. He was wearing a form fitting, dark-blue, floor length ball-gown, with matching high-heels and gloves that were the same length as Duke's. He was also wearing the same earrings and necklace as he had been the night before. Joey's hair had been layered and curled by Mai and his hair was parted at his forehead, giving a rare glimpse of his face and eyes. Mai did his make-up as well. She applied midnight-blue eye-liner, silver eye-shadow, and the same shiny copper lipstick he had worn before. When the gang saw him, it was Joey's turn to be squealed at and glomped.

Once everyone was ready, they met back up in the harbor. The Kaiba brothers were naturally the first ones there. Mokuba smiled and escorted everyone inside. Jaws dropped when the others saw the interior. "Wow, you really decorated the place!" Mai said to Mokuba, who smiled in return. "It wasn't just me in charge, Yugi and Seto helped too." He motioned her closer and whispered into her ear. "I think Seto is trying to impress Alister." He said, grinning. She laughed upon hearing this. Yugi and Mokuba ran off after announcing they were going to double check a few things. Bakura snorted. "Heh, they're gonna go make out is more like it!" He said, then proceeded to pull Ryou towards the nearest closet. When asked why by his hikari, Bakura explained that they should follow Yugi and Mokuba's example. The others talked quietly for a while before deciding to go up on deck. Yugi and Mokuba joined them a bit later, looking a bit red-faced and out of breath. Bakura and Ryou also joined them shortly, by Ryou's request. It was now nearing nine o'clock.

After a few more minutes three people arrived. Two in a black, two seated convertible, and one on a motorcycle. Joey laughed in amusement. Valon wasn't joking when he had said it had been painted a bright yellow. Duke smiled. "I'll go greet them. You guys take the dance floor." The others nodded. Yugi stopped Joey. "Wait till they're inside to show yourself. You want to make a grand entrance." He advised. Joey nodded and ushered Yugi inside. Now only he and Seto Kaiba remained on the roof. Kaiba laid a hand on his shoulder and gave a rare smile when he saw Alister step out of the car. "You're alright Wheeler…for an idiot and a Cross-dresser." He said as he headed for the steps. Joey smiled called out to him. "Yo Kaiba, you're okay too, for a rich prick." He said. The two rivals shared a laugh before heading inside.

Duke walked down the staircase and onto the dock. "Hey, we were starting to worry you wouldn't show up." He teased. Valon laughed as the Trio followed Duke into the Yacht.

"So, which one is your girl friend?" Alister asked boredly, looking over at the four girls (five including Mai). Valon sighed. "Hm, I don't see her…she said she would be here…" He trailed of when he saw the beautiful woman (cross-dresser) walking down the stairs. He smiled at her. "There she is." He told the red-head, pointing to the blond. Alister looked up. "…Wow, she is pretty." He turned to smirk at Valon. "Gee Val, I wonder what she sees in you…" He glared daggers at Alister, who shrugged it off. Raphael rolled his eyes at their childish behavior.

When Joey reached the Trio she smiled. "Oh, I was afraid you wouldn't be able to make it." He said, blushing. Valon laughed and kissed his hand, causing the blond to blush even harder. "How could I not come?" He asked. Joey laughed nervously. He turned to Alister, deciding to play the part of the naive girlfriend. "And you are?" He asked politely. "Alister." He said offering his hand. Joey shook his hand and smiled slightly. The red head smiled in return. "Might I ask your name?" He blinked. "My name is Katsuya Amira…but my friends call me Kat." He told the other male. Alister sighed. "You should really raise your standards. Valon is just an annoying idiot." He told Joey. The blond laughed. "Really? He seems nice to me…" Joey said, not really lying.

Before the red-head could respond, a pair of arms wrapped around his waist. A deep voice chuckled. "Ah, I knew you couldn't stay away from me." Kaiba purred into Alister's ear. Alister's eyes widened. "EWW! No! Get away from meee!" He cried desperately. Kaiba promptly ignored him and dragged the struggling boy away. Joey gave him a sweet smile. "Oh, mister Kaiba, I think Bakura is done using the closet now." He said, pretending to be oblivious to Alister's look of pure horror. Kaiba smirked. "Thank you for the information Ms. Amira." He said as he continued pull the red-head. "Noooooo!" Alister howled. He looked back at Valon, Raphael, and Joey desperately. "Guys! Help me!" he begged. Valon smirked. 'Ha! Payback at last!' he thought. "Sorry Al, I couldn't separate you from your lover…it just wouldn't be right!" Alister began to sob. "I hate you guys!" he declared when none of the three made any effort to save him. Joey waved. "Have fun!" He told them.

Valon laughed. "Yes! Alister is finally getting what he deserves!" He yelled. Joey blinked, still pretending to be a ditz. "What? True love?" He asked. Valon shrugged. "If that's what ya call true love…" he replied. Joey laughed. Raphael rolled his eyes again, and then walked off to find Mai…hopefully she was more stable than the rest of the people he knew here.

Yugi smiled at Mokuba. "I think it's going to work, Mokie!" He said happily. Mokuba nodded. "Yeah, why wouldn't it? Joey just needs to tell him the truth, and then hopefully Valon will accept him." He said. Mokuba got a dreamy look in his eyes. "Yugi, if this works, we're gonna plan the wedding!" He told his boyfriend. Yugi sweat-dropped. "Aren't you thinking a little too fan in advanced, Mokuba?" he asked the raven haired boy, who shook his head in response.

Bakura smirked at Kaiba, who had finally gotten fed up and slung Alister over his shoulder. "Well isn't this a surprise? The great Seto Kaiba is finally gonna get some!" He said. Alister glared venomously at Bakura, who glared back with twice the intensity. Ryou laughed and he and Yami dragged Bakura away. Bakura pouted (which was a rare site indeed!) and said, "Hey! I can walk on my own you know!"

Joey sighed and sat down on one of the benches located around the outside of the dance-floor. Valon stood beside him. "You see to have a lot on your mind." The brunet commented. Joey sighed inwardly. 'You have no idea…' he thought. "Eeep!" Valon shrieked as a stranger groped him. This effectively brought Joey out of his trance. He glared at the man standing behind Valon. The brunet was suddenly released when a blunt object connected with his captor's skull. Valon turned and stared in shock at the two tanned, blond haired teens. One was a girl, and the other a guy. Malik snarled at his yami. "Marik! How many times do I have to tell you not to molest strangers?" He asked. Marik pouted. "But hikari! Marik likes touch people!" He whined. He received another whack from what appeared to be a golden rod with blades and an eye-design on it. Marik whimpered. Malik sighed. "I thought the therapist was supposed to be helping you with this problem!" He said. Marik had a blank look for a moment, then smiled in a psychotic way. "What therapist? Marik sent him to Shadow realm months ago!" He declared proudly. Valon blinked. 'Shadow realm? Where have I heard that term before?' He wondered. Malik clenched his fists angrily. "Uhg! Marik, you're such an idiot! Why can't you just act like a normal person?" He demanded. The yami blinked, tilting his head to the side in confusion. "Why? Marik is not an idiot…nor is he normal, or a person! Marik is embodiment of hatred and anger from soul of pretty-self!" He declared happily. Malik sweat-dropped. "No…I think you are an embodiment of my stupidity…" He mumbled under his breath. He grabbed Marik's arm and dragged him away from the other two boys. Valon's brows furrowed in confusion. "And these people are your friends?" He asked. Joey smiled. "Yup!" He replied happily.

Raphael found Mai at the refreshments table. "Hey." He said in greeting. She smiled at him. "Oh, I didn't see you there." She apologized. Before Raphael walked up, he had been staring in the direction of Valon and 'Kat'. He sighed. "Cute couple, huh?" He asked, trying to get any possible information out of her. "Yeah." She replied. She giggled. "Kat is a cute couple all by herself." She said, smirking. Raphael gave her a calculating look. 'What did she mean by that?' He wondered. Mai smiled at him. "I know you're trying to figure her out." She said, making him jump. He sighed. "I know you know something, so out with it!" He told her. She waved him off. "You'll just have to figure it out yourself. It's too bad we didn't make a bet, though, 'cause I would be winning!" She said. He blinked. 'Bet? A bet about what?' He pondered to himself.

Duke sighed as he laid his head back down on Tristen's shoulder. He chuckled. When he saw Valon and Joey begin to dance. "Now all Joey has to do is admit the truth…not an easy task is it?" He asked the brunet. Tristen shook his head. "It's a secret that could tear the cutest couple in the room apart…but Joey has to say something soon, before things get out of hand." He replied. Duke nodded. Sadly, he looked up at Tristen. "I have my own confession to make." He said. Tristen gave him a curious look. "Hm? And what's that, Duke?" He asked. The black-haired boy took a deep breath…

Kaiba had given up on the closet idea, and instead walked out onto the dance floor. He gently set Alister down on his feet, but kept a firm grip on his waist to that the other boy couldn't run. They danced slowly. Alister snarled at him. "Let go!" He demanded. Kaiba rolled his eyed. "Why?" He asked. Alister glared. "Because I've already tortured enough!" He spat. Kaiba laughed. "Now why would I torture the one I love?" He asked. Alister's eyes widened. "I-I'm being serious here Kaiba!" He said. A bright blush spread across his face. Kaiba gave another of his rare smiled. "So am I." He said. He then pulled Alister into a gentle, yet passionate kiss. The red haired boy resisted at first, but then slowly melted into the kiss.

…And yes, Mokuba did catch the exchange with his top-quality DVD video recorder. He also got Yugi and various other people in the room to take pictures. The two teens stopped kissing when they heard the 'clicking' of numerous cameras. Kaiba groaned. "Grr! Mokuba! You are so grounded!" He shouted. Said boy paled slightly. He turned and gave Yugi a shaky smile. "Heh, come check out our house before I am restricted access of 95 of it!" He told the other boy. Yugi laughed and followed him towards the exit.

Joey and Valon stopped dancing when they heard Kaiba's shriek. They looked at each other questioningly. "What do you think that was about?" Joey asked. Valon shrugged. "Beats me." He said. Neither of them had paid Kaiba or Alister, and had therefore missed the short make-out session. Bakura, Yami, and Ryou walked past them laughing. Joey sighed. "Hey Bakura, What happened?" He asked. The white haired, red-eyed boy smirked. "The kid made a videotape of his brother and the red-head making out, then the rest of us took pictures!" He said. Yami laughed. "That was hilarious! You should have seen the look on Kaiba's face when he found out!" He added. Valon blinked when he noticed Yami. "Eh? Pharaoh, what are ya doin' here?" he asked. Yami tensed up. Bakura smirked. "The pharaoh is here to make out with us!" He said, motioning towards Ryou and himself. He then added. "Nobody is allowed to kiss him aside from Ryou and I, and nobody is allowed to take his life but me! Muahahahahahahaha!" He said while grinning insanely. Valon stared in shock, while Yami, Ryou, and Joey Sweat-dropped. Ryou smiled at Valon softly. "Awe, don't mind Bakura, once you get to know him he is…tolerable." The boy said. He was going to say 'nice', but that would be lying, for of all the things Bakura was, nice was not one of them. Valon blinked. "Okay…" he said, now convinced that they were all crazy. 'What is with these people?' He wondered.

Duke sighed, looking away. Tristen frowned. "I thought you had something to say?" He asked the older boy. "I like you." He said. Tristen blinked. "Yeah…and?" Duke rolled hi eyes, then pressed his lips against the brunet's. Tristen's eyes widened. He pulled back. "What was that for?" Duke sighed. "Cause I like you." He responded tearfully, then turned to walk away. Tristen turned him back around and placed a soft kiss on the dice-master's lips. Duke wrapped his arms around Tristen's neck and pulled him closer.

Mai smiled. "Looks like love is in the air, huh?" She asked the blond man beside her. He nodded. "Or at least in the punch." He said. She laughed. "Hey, that would explain why everyone is acting so fruity." He gave her an odd look. She smirked up at him. "I'll tell you a secret if you promise not to tell anyone else or freak out." She said. He gulped when he saw the Cheshire-smile on her face. "Fine." He said, accepting her terms. She laughed. "The truth is…I'm the only girl in the room!" She whispered into his ear. His eyes widened. She giggled at his slack-jawed expression. "Oh, come on! You must have had some clue!" She said to him. He shook his head. She sighed. "I guess I just have girly-looking friends…" She said. His eyes narrowed. "I had a feeling you new all of these people. Then explain…who are they?" He asked. She giggled and pointed everyone out. "There's Duke," she said, pointing out black-haired boy in the green dress, "he was there when Yugi and the others fought you guys, remember?" His eyes widened in surprise. "I knew he looked familiar…" Raphael muttered. "Yugi was the one dancing with Mokuba…and I think they left…" She said. Then she motioned towards Ryou and Malik. "The one with white hair is Ryou; he's the holder of the Millennium Ring and the other boy with white hair is Bakura, his yami." She paused for breath, "The Egyptian is Malik; He is the holder of the Millennium Rod…which you may -or may not have noticed him brandishing as a weapon earlier. His yami is named Marik." She said. "And what is this one's story?" He asked, pointing to the blond that Valon had been dancing with. She giggled. "Isn't it obvious? How many blond duelists do you think I know?" She asked. His eyes widened. "When you said that you would have won if we betted…"

--Flashback

… "He always did remind me of Joey though…" She told him sadly, then smirked when a radical idea entered her brain. "Maybe they will end up together." Raphael gave her a disbelieving look. "I highly doubt that!" He said.

--End Flashback

"…The blond is Joey Wheeler!" Raphael asked in shock. She smiled and nodded. "Yep. I can't believe you guys never figured it out!" She exclaimed.

Bakura wrapped one arm around Ryou's shoulder and used the other to motion for Yami to follow him. Yami waved him off. "Just a minute 'Kura. I have to tell the lady something." He said. Bakura snorted. Yami learned forward to whisper into The blond's ear. "Before he left, Yugi asked me to pass on a message to you. He said: don't forget what you have to do, and don't screw it up." Yami pulled back and smiled at Joey. "Good luck. I hope things turn out." He said as he joined his two lovers. The three of the walked away towards the refreshment table. 'Kat' rubber 'her' head and sighed. "Well, so much for no pressure." Joey said irritably. "What's wrong?" Valon asked. Joey didn't answer. Valon blinked. "Katsuya, are you okay?" He asked. The blond gave him a faint, sad smile. "I've got a secret." He said, still using his girl-voice. Valon blinked. "My first name isn't Katsuya, it's my middle name, and Amira is my mother's maiden name…" He paused to laugh at the irony of it all. "…Heck, I'm not even a girl." He said. Valon blinked in surprise. "Huh?" He said in shock. Joey turned away, biting his lip. He took a deep breathe. "You must be pretty dense, if ya haven't figured it out yet." He said using his normal voice. Valon's eyes widened. "Joey Wheeler?" He asked in shock. Joey sighed and turned away. He started to walk back to his friends, but was stopped when the brunet embraced him from behind. Joey jumped in surprise. "V-Valon?" He stuttered. The brunet laughed. "Deceptive much?" He asked. It was the blonde's turn to be shocked. Valon couldn't help the grin that spread across his face. "You could have said something, ya know." He told the other boy. "Joey, the other person I said I loved that you reminded me of…that person is you." He stated. Joey blinked in shock, a dark blush came onto his face. Valon sighed and laid his head down on the blonde's shoulder.

Click. Joey looked over to their left. There stood the entire group of their friends with their cameras ready. Yugi stood in the very front. He smiled at Joey. "Enjoying ourselves, are we?" He asked. Joey's blush only deepened (if that was possible), while Valon just grinned. Yugi laughed and walked out of the others' way, having already taken his picture. The others fanned out and took an onslaught of pictures of the odd couple. Joey sighed. "Is this how it feels to be famous? It's so disappointing…" Duke giggled. "Heh, the rest of us should all join the Paparazzi!" He joked.

Once the others had gone back to dancing, Joey looked over at Valon. "So what now?" He asked. Valon smiled. "Oh, I can think of a few things." He told the blond. Valon pulled Joey forward. He wrapped his arms around his love's waist and pressed his lips against the blonde's. Joey gasped, allowing the brunet's tong to slide into his mouth. They fought for dominance for a few minutes before they were forced to pull apart for air. As they tried to catch their breath, Valon ran his had through Joey's long, golden hair. "I love you Joey." He murmured. Joey's heart skipped a beat. He smiled contentedly. "Love you too, Valon." He said. As they were talking a new song began to play. Valon chuckled. "May I have this dance, fair lady?" He asked. Joey smiled and used his female-voice once more. "Of course, kind sir." He replied. Joey laid his head against Valon's shoulder blade. He smiled to himself. "I guess this is what I get for dancing with the enemy…"
