Little Bitty Pretty One

Chapter Twelve

(A little Seto and Jounouchi Time)

---

Seto set the blonde down lightly on the bed and called in his personal nurse to look him over. He watched as the woman in blue scrubs poked and prodded him. If Jou was in pain because of this he was hiding it well. Seto smiled when the nurse stopped her study of the blonde and looked up at him. "He's going to be fine Mr. Kaiba. He just needs a nice bath. I'll set it up." She stood up and walked into the bathroom that connected to his hotel bedroom.

"Um I want to say. Thanks." Jou said shyly, Seto could tell that getting Jou to say anything polite didn't come easy and nodded. "No one else would have helped a whore."

"Thanks, Pup." He smirked as Jou looked up at him with narrow eyes. "Look, it was nothing. I guess you could say Atem has inspired me. I want you to stay with me this week too. If that's alright."

"Alright?" he smiled then shook his head. "What about Pegasus?"

"What about him? He can't do anything to me." Seto smiled smugly. "You don't have to answer right now."

"Yes! I-I mean yes I would like to stay with you." He blushed slightly and cleared his throat. "But no pet names."

"Alright Pup." Seto smirked when Jou's face dropped.

"The bath is ready." The nurse walked in and smiled when Seto gave her the nod to leave. She smiled knowingly and walked out of his room and stuck the "Do Not Disturb" sign out.

Jou stood up and flinched lightly as his cuts began to burn. "Careful Pup." Seto smiled and helped him stand straight and walked him to the bathroom and sat him down on the toilet. He brought his hands up and slowly began to unbutton Jou's shirt. Jou gave a few light protests as he grabbed Seto's writs but the CEO merely shook them off as he pulled the blood soaked cloth from his torso. He tossed the shirt aside and pulled Jou to stand.

"What are you doing?" Jou breathed out, somehow he was very turned on at the sight of the blue-eyed man pulling and tugging off his clothes.

"What does it look like?" he snapped and unbuttoned his pants and unzipped them sliding them down to his ankles. "Step out." He ordered and Jou did as he was told. Seto reached for the blonde's boxers but Jou stopped him

"I can do that. Let me" he purred before hooking his fingers at his hips and sliding down his silk red boxers.

"Get into the tub." Seto said with a strong sense of authority which was only strengthened when the honey-eyed puppy did as he was told. He heard Jou hiss as the hot water bubbled and stung at his wounds.

"A-a-are you g-gonna join me?" Jou sentence broke up as he slid deeper and deeper into the water soaking new skin in the warmth of the healing liquid.

"Are you asking me to?" Seto arched an eyebrow and sighed inwardly as he saw that the blonde's pain was dying down.

"Yes."

"Then I will join you." Seto smiled and slowly pulled off his suit before sliding in facing the blond. He picked up the soft sponge, "turn around."

Jou turned around and took a deep breath when he felt a pair of strong hands on his hips making him scoot between Seto's legs. The hands then drifted up to his chest pushing him back to lean against Seto. "Relax." He whispered in Jou's ear in a soothing voice.

Jou melted against the strong man behind him and placed his head on his shoulders as Seto drew the sponge up his stomach and chest dabbing at the sores and cuts and washing away the dry blood. Jou gritted his teeth and hissed at the sensation. He closed his eyes as a soft hum filled the air. "W-what are you…"

"Just relax." Seto smiled and kissed Jou's earlobe as he chanted softly. Suddenly warmth flowed over Jou's entire being. He felt at peace and the pain dripped off of him like fresh pain slid off a white wall. His hands sunk slowly to the bottom of the tub. What was up with this guy? His thought soon drifted to nothing.

Seto's hands rung the sponge out and dipped under once more running over Jou's legs slowly moving upward. The boy never flinched when Seto gently dabbed at his soft manhood. His chant had worked; Jou was in a state of complete relaxation which was good if Seto was going to finish cleaning the wounds. By the purplish hue of the skin around the cut he could tell that a blunt knife, and probably a rusty one, was used.

Seto vowed at that moment that he would find this Pegasus Person and make him pay. He didn't know how, but he was going to. Seto paused, he was being foolish to care so much about this blonde, he knew that love made people weak and he didn't need that in his line of work. But still, still he wanted to look into his new found feelings for this boy.

Jou let out a soft moan as Seto idly rubbed Jou's, now erect, member. Seto blushed he had been so entranced in his thoughts about love that he completely forgot what he was doing. He looked down at the blonde as he looked back up at him and slowly leaned down. Jou, thinking of his no kissing on the mouth rule, tried to pull away or turn his head to the side so he would miss but Seto would have none of that as he captured the boys lips. Soft and pillow were those red lips, so ready and waiting. Seto moaned at the feel and the tingle that ran up his spine. Something happened to Seto at that moment. Something he wished would stop yet never go away. Love.
