Author's Notes: Let me know if you'd like a part two. I may make that happen. Written for polyamships #MultiamoryMarch Day 17 'goodbye.' Thank you again to Merry/merryfortune for beta reading.

Kaiba Seto hasn't laughed this hard in months. Mokuba is off to college, and though he gets regaled by his stories often enough, they're usually tinged with longing for more time. More time to be who they didn't get to be.

But here he is, with Mazaki Anzu of all people. She's feisty and sarcastic. And he thinks if she doesn't stop commenting on the outfits of the wait staff here, he'll embarrass himself and snort his drink out of his nose.

Heading out into the November chill, they really should be saying goodbye. It's late. But she's got her arm entwined with his and he doesn't want her to let go. She's bright and warm. All the things he wished he'd noticed before.

It took running into each other at a shopping mall alone for him to see her shine. But even before that, the first thing he ever noticed about Anzu is her grace and the beautiful way she moves, but those weren't the moves he was interested in before. Winning and power didn't mix well with grace he realized.

But age has softened him. His early twenties have him noticing her energetic gait and the way her hair swishes around her shoulders when she punctuates her stories. New York has done well for her. She's already a backup dancer. He wants to offer her better. A place in their KaibaLand line up of performers. And he will, when he stops laughing at her hilarious anecdotes.

"He left us in there with just two broomsticks," she's saying, her hair captivating his attention again.

And he's reminded of who she's going home to. Yugi. Yugi, his rival. Yugi, the one. The one he'll never be able to forget after so many years of learning his moves, hisgait and mannerisms. He has also never forgotten their first and last kiss in the arcade back in Domino. In the dark corners of the lounge, after having lost again, but so close. They too were so close to one another that night, and he recalls wanting to taste the salty skin of the man who seems to defy him with such grace at every turn.

And so, he did. He pressed his right thigh along Yugi's left, searching for the man's eyes. And he knew, from the look in them, the parted mouth, that Yugi had been wondering what'd taken him so long. He surged forward, quietly, slowly, placing a hand on the other man's chin, tilting his face up. And pressed their lips together. It was everything Kaiba had imagined, but so much more.

He could feel his feet on the ground, his pulse racing and the steady thrum of the music in the arcade lounge reverberating through him as they kissed, and it was nearly perfect. He knew he'd been chasing the right thing then, because victory tasted sweeter than he could have imagined. It's the man beneath him reaching with eager hands to grasp his shoulders and kiss back. It's hot, slow and steady, and Kaiba can't believe he waited this long.

But in the cold light of day, he couldn't face what he'd glossed over for so long, and so he doesn't. He forgets that Yugi texted him asking if he's okay. He forgets as best as he can that they ever touched so tenderly in the glow of the arcade lights. He forgets that it was something he'd been searching for. He puts all his energy into his work. KaibaLand's don't build themselves after all. And there's a new duel disk system that needs work.

But in New York now, with Anzu by his side, he can't forget anymore. And he can't ignore that he's drunk on her as well. Her fierce eyes and inflections. And he remembers saving her from Marik. How sad he'd been to think of such beauty snuffed out. He's grateful in a way he hasn't been in a long time, so he pulls her close, not sure what he wants for once, but just holds her against him, firm and unyielding. And she looks back. She must know, must know he wants her. But does she know he wants Yugi too?

Heading up to her and Yugi's shared apartment, he steels himself for distance, awkwardness? He doesn't know. But Yugi is Yugi, and he smiles as Kaiba removes his coat, cheerful as ever. And as Anzu smiles at both of them, he wonders if she knows. Knows that he's falling for her and fell for him years ago.

If she does, the only indication she gives is a sly smile as she leaves them alone to go brew some tea. Yugi's grown just the slightest bit taller and he's decided to sport some facial hair. It does things to Kaiba that he wants to admit. And perhaps he will. The silence between them, when it does fall, isn't bitter or strained. Yugi smiles, like he so often did, patient and kind. And Kaiba wants now more than ever to envelop the man, hold him close and kiss him, taste true victory again.

Instead, they settle for sitting on the futon, amicable silence breeding desires in him he had long tried to bury. But this is exactly what he's been searching for he realizes, a place to rest. And so, he does, as they sip tea, he lets his shoulder drift lower, brushing Yugi's left arm. And to his surprise, half way through a shared story of ducklings on the roof, Yugi tilts his head to the left and rests it on his shoulder.

And Kaiba doesn't want him to move. He hadn't forgotten at all the heat of that night he realizes, as it all comes flooding back. And he hopes that Yugi stays, because he doesn't want to run anymore, not when Anzu is here. Her presence grounding him that much further, drawing him in with her sweet lips and graceful movements.

She's quiet and chatty now all at once, the tension changing between them. She's smiling at the two of them, as she sits on Kaiba's left. Finishing the last of her tea, before setting the cup down and letting herself recline, and slide to her right, resting her own head on Kaiba's left shoulder.

And Kaiba, doesn't feel burdened. There's no war to wage or lives to save. He finds himself at peace in this little home. The tea is all but gone but he doesn't want to leave. They're weight pulls him down so sweetly, he wants to loll his head back, relish the warmth of their bodies beside him. So, he does

It's Yugi who makes the first move, running his hand up Kaiba's long thigh. He traces the inner seam and makes his way lower. And Kaiba knows the warmth bubbling in him now isn't from the tea.

Anzu rubs soft circles along his left bicep, and it brings him to notice the press of her breasts against his side. And he wonders what it would feel like to run his hand along them. He reaches up with his right hand, and traces the outline of her left breast, eliciting a sharp sigh and she's flush against him now.

He can feel her breath against his ear, it carries him forward as he brings his left arm around her to trace circles along her spine, causing her to squirm in excitement. Yugi continues to rub along his thigh. Kaiba opens his legs wider at the touch. He can feel the blood rushing downward.

In one swell movement, he wraps Anzu's right leg around himself. She's straddling him now, and they gaze into one another's eyes. The moonlight falls across her hair and shoulders. And he knows in that moment he will never be able to give her anything ordinary, not after what they're heading towards. And she doesn't seem to mind, as she lowers her head to bring her mouth to his. She kisses him softly at first, then with more urgency and he wraps his arms around her, running his hands up and down her lower back and buttocks. He'd always admired her backside, so plump and rounded.

Yugi is watching with the soft smile he always has. And he helps Anzu out of her turquoise top, sliding it over her head and arms to reveal her pink bra beneath. Kaiba divests of it quickly, freeing her soft, voluptuous breasts. They give a light bounce a she adjusts her position. He caresses the left once again, causing Anzu to moan in pleasure and tip her head back.

Turning his attention again to Yugi, he gestures with his right hand for him to come forward. Yugi does eagerly and places his left hand on Anzu's right breast, tracing small circles around her nipple, bringing it to tautness. She lets out a sigh and arches into the touch.

Kaiba then dips his mouth low and brings her left nipple into his mouth, licking around it gently. She slides forward on his lap, relaxing into the touch. Yugi begins to work on her right nipple, tracing the same small circles and bringing it into his mouth. Seated beside them, Yugi brings his left hand to her left buttock, kneading and causing the brunette to open her legs wider.

Kaiba reluctantly releases Anzu's left nipple and turns to Yugi. He looks at the man and see's Anzu watching them closely. She nods, as if giving her permission, for her Yugi can only be with the best. And Kaiba, with Anzu still straddling him, turns to his left to place kisses along Yugi's neck, moving upward, until he's inches from his mouth. The skin tastes hot and salty, just as he remembers. He finally closes the centimeters between their lips and basks in the warmth. Yugi tastes of earl grey and biscotti.

Anzu is stroking his shoulder now. She begins to remove his black turtleneck, sliding the fabric up to reveal his long torso and already erect nipples. She trails her hands down its length, stopping to trace circles around his nipples and roll the nub between her fingers. Kaiba gives a gasp of delight, pulling her closer to him.

Yugi still wearing his shirt won't do, so Kaiba yanks the man closer with a fistful of it and kisses him while dragging the cloth upward, parting their mouths only to let it pass over Yugi's head. He places more feather light kisses along the man's neck and collarbone, watching as he tips his head back, enjoying the attention.

Anzu has begun to unbutton her jeans, and Kaiba helps her the rest of the way, allowing her enough room to remove them and her lacey panties before pulling her back onto his lap. He kisses her again while pressing his hands up her back and through her hair, just as warm and inviting she was the moment he set eyes on her in the shopping center.

She stands then letting him remove his pants and boxers. Anzu helps Yugi out of his tight pants and belt, pushing him back on the couch to kiss him urgently, pressing her hands along his stomach. She stands back up and takes in his hazy expression. He's nearly hard already.

Kaiba turns his attention to Yugi who's half lying on the sofa. He turns him so he's laying length wise, head near the armrest. He brings himself between his legs, wanting to taste the salty skin below. He trails his hands along Yugi's abdomen, placing kisses in their wake. He brings his hands to his inner thighs, holding them open as he lowers his head and flicks out a tongue. Yugi tastes as musky as he'd imagined. He lowers his mouth further to Yugi's now hard cock and wraps his lips around the head, sucking gently. The man arches up, fisting his hands in pleasure.

Anzu sits on hands and knees near the couch, and kisses Yugi as he lies there, with his cock in Kaiba's mouth. He gasps and moans into her mouth and she takes it all. Kaiba slides his mouth lower now, close to the base. And Yugi bucks, seeking more.

Wanting to save some for the bedroom, Kaiba slowly removes his mouth from around Yugi's cock. He gives it one last lick along the base before rising. Anzu who's stopped kissing Yugi, stands too. Yugi, breathing hard, rises to a seating position, legs still spread wide.

Kaiba traces his right fingers along her left cheek and urges her forward, bringing their mouths together again. He flicks his tongue across hers, deepening the kiss. He pulls her naked body in closer, resting his left hand on her lower back.

Letting her go, he gently pushes her back to sit on the sofa. He looks at Yugi, who seems to understand.

Yugi rises from his spot, and comes to rest on hands and knees in between Anzu's legs. He brushes his lips against Anzu's left knee and allows his mouth to trail feather light kisses up the inner thigh till he reaches her clit. He flicks out his tongue and gives it a soft lap. She moans, widening her legs. He then brings his tongue lower to trace it down her entrance, and she moves her hips forward, wanting more. He flicks his tongue inside her, allowing himself a taste. She's sweet as always.

Kaiba hums behind them in excitement "We'll need more space for what I want to do next" the brunette said. Yugi and Anzu nod in agreement, rising on pleasure trembling legs to make their way to the little bedroom upstairs.
