Paint Me Love

Chapter One: Open Canvas

His butt sat there, in the middle of the school's art room. His hands swiftly brushed the surface of the canvas. He was painting. He was letting his emotions out. He needed to be free.

He was Jounouchi Katsuya.

No one really knew about Jou's talents for the arts—aside from Yugi and his family, of course.

But now, almost everyone he knew had divulged it, ever since that day he found out that Yami was going out with Kaiba Seto.

He was annoyed. He was mad. He was painting.

Not only did Yami go out with the jerk, he, now, is forced to get along with the CEO. And, get this, act civilized for the sake of their happiness. And, God, he hated Yami—well, not really hated… only loathed… or maybe envied—who cares? All Jou knew was he wanted to paint and he will paint. Period.

"Of all fucking people!" The blond hissed as his brush raced across the clear whiteness. "WHY HIM!"

Of all people, why did it have to be Yami?

Of all people, why did it have to be his best friend?

Of all people, why wasn't it Jou?

Of all people, why did he have to fall in love with Kaiba?

Yes, he was in love with the cold hearted-prick-jackass.

"Sucks to be me…" Jou whispered as he attempted to paint dark brown lines.

No one else knew his feelings for the brunet aside from Yugi (again) and Shizuka, who were trying to share the pain. But the blond brushed off all pity—saying he was happy for the two.

But was he?

Yes.

Really?

Maybe.

Truthfully?

No.

It felt like someone ripped his heart out, cut off his head and buried him alive… if he was still alive by then.

But now, all Jou wanted was to concentrate on was his art—his future, whether he got into Parsons School of Design in France (1) or not.

It was the only way…

To get away…

From everything.

From anything.

"Hm." The blond smiled to himself as he finished the very beginning of the portrait of a certain brunet—the hair. "If only…"

"Only what," A familiar voice rang as a figure entered the room. "Mutt."

"M—moneybags!" Jou replied as he grabbed a nearby cloth to cover the semi-dry canvas. "What the hell do you want?"

"I never knew mutts can paint." The Kaiba sneered.

Now, everyone knew.

"Not. A. Dog."

"I didn't say you were a dog. I said you were a mutt."

"Shut up!" The blond screamed.

Yes. Why did he have to fall in love with Kaiba Seto?
