XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX
From then on out…it was almost as if life was on pause. That night was on all three teenager's minds…None could forget…
Jounouchi hadn't found Shizuka that night and wouldn't speak to Kaiba since. No matter the brunet's advances. After a while, he gave up, deciding to let the tension consume them.
Shizuka was speaking to neither her betraying brother or her two-timing boyfriend. She could hardly believe this was happening to her…Why her?! She'd done nothing wrong!
Jounouchi remained unusually quiet. He refused to speak he unless absolutely had to. What a confusing turn of events…After all of this wishing and praying…Kaiba could be his…! All he had to do was say he wanted it and it would be his…But he couldn't. Not with Shizuka still in the way…Not with the few questions he still had…And he couldn't find it in his to face the brunet. Not after he left him amidst their most passionate performance. Hell, the man had told him he loved him, kissed him…! And he had done what in return? …push him away and ignore their connection? Yes…that is what he had done…no way Kaiba would forgive his rejection…now way Jounouchi could even forgive himself.
For now…they would all just hope someone would press play on this stilled action of life.
XxXJounouchi's POVXxX
I carried on best I could while trying not to scream in frustration. I couldn't concentrate, as I've said before. I sat in Math, usually a subject I find very interesting, just staring right out the window. Not even bothering to hide the fact that I wasn't paying attention. Kaiba had said…not the right Jounouchi…the right Jounouchi…what was it that made me, of all people, 'right'? I know I'm good looking, but so are many others…I'm not complaining…I'm just very confused. I cant understand why he would want me…why am I the one he wants? Then again, I'm not quite sure what it is about him that makes me want him…He's just…him. Smart. Gorgeous. Sexy…oh yeah, definitely sexy. He fits that category just fine. I can't help but wonder if it is just that. That we don't know why we're drawn to each other…we just are.
I just can't understand it. What is he planning on doing about Shizuka if he doesn't want to be with her anymore? What am I going to do about her? We probably broke her heart…All I can hope to do now is stick my nose in the studies and well, study. I can't afford to have my grades slip.
A shadow looms over me as I look up to see the cause. My eyes narrow as they meet none to gently azure.
"If you're having trouble…I can help you." He offers. I shake my head and look back down.
"I'm fine, it isn't difficult for me."
"Are you sure? I can—"
"Urusai. I don't think we should be speaking. You cheated on my sister and I went behind her back. Until you clear this up…I wont talk to you." It was abnormally quiet after that. Although he still stood beside me, he did not speak. And I did not expect him to. He leaned down, turning my face to him as he kissed me soundly on the lips. My eyes were widened only slightly in shock as he pulled away.
"I wont let you go. Tell me you feel the same, Jounouchi. You do…don't you?" he asks lightly, softly. I almost don't hear him. Of course I felt the same. How could I not? I wanted to be with him so bad…and shout our love to the heavens and skies above but…but Shizuka… "Talk to me with her." Azure eyes seemed to read my expression. I shake my head out of his touch, but he simply pushes me back. "Let us tell her of our love. I'll explain to her…she'll understand. I wont lose you Jounouchi. Not to her. And…And I know I've hurt her…And I know what I did was wrong but…but what I'm doing right now…feels so right, pup. To be with you…feels so right."
He was nearly in tears, I realized. Even if his eyes never shown…didn't glisten…his eyes were pleading with me. Begging me to…to do this with him. And gods, how could I refuse such a look?
"Alright." I sigh, giving in to his plea. "When?"
"After school." He said, his eyes locked on to mine. "Is that okay?" I shrugged.
"I have no where important to be…" I could feel it…there was emotion in his touch. I wanted to say, then and there how much I loved him. I didn't though, instead I returned to my work, hoping he saw that our little chat was over with. I didn't want to talk to him anymore. It hurt too much.
Kaiba took his seat next to me and pulled out his work. He checked over his answers and sighed suddenly, turning over to me, eyes full of regret and hurt.
"I never meant to hurt any of you…" he murmured. I stilled, my lips pursed together, determined not to show my emotions.
"I know." I said as I returned to my work.
The hour passed and I was ready to move on with the day. Kaiba kept making odd glances in my direction and I couldn't understand why. I desperately tried to ignore him, but it wasn't working too well. I don't know why he's so scared looking…I mean its not like I—Oh my Ra.
It was then I realized…the reason he kept looking at me wasn't because he was anxious for the day to be over, or…because he couldn't wait to be with me…it was because…I hadn't yet told him how I felt…
Oh my Ra, I completely blanked…Jounouchi-baka! How could I do that to him?! My heart begins to grow heavy with my grief and regret. I cant believe I forgot…that was why he kept looking over…he didn't know what I was feeling…and it scared him…
That's when I realized how sincere and true his feelings were. He's trying so hard to stay clam with me after what happened…but that's hardly the kind of person he is…My respect for him sky rocketed.
He must be so frustrated with me after my silence. Confusion…I hadn't thought of how he felt in this…since I know how I feel and how he feels…but I forgot how he put himself on the line and hadn't yet received an answer.
What patience…He's waiting for me even though he's more of a 'something-happened-and-I-have-get-to-the-bottom-of-it-now' kind of guy. He doesn't want to scare me away…that's why he's so jittery. Heh, I almost laugh at the thought. I look over t him and smile slightly. His head turned and his eyes locked with mine. I'm sure he saw my smile because he smiled back.
During passing time I decided to tell him, after all I didn't want him thinking I didn't care about him all day…I walked up to him, nervous and blushing.
"Kaiba?" He turned to me and nodded, his eyes smiling at me even if his lips were not. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you…" I whispered lightly, averting my embarrassed gaze. I could feel his eyes on me.
"What do you mean?" he asked softly.
"I mean I'm sorry I didn't tell you how I felt…and how I return your feelings." I whisper. Kaiba's eyes wide only slightly, unnoticed to anyone but me. He smiles at me.
"Thank you."
I can hardly return his glance before someone pulls me off to my next class.
"C'mon man, its called detention and we don't want it!"
I smile. It was worth it. That look in his eyes, the secret smile only for me…I didn't care if I got a month's worth of detentions…Besides, someone just pushed 'play'.
XxXKaiba's POVXxX
As I watch the blond and his brunet friend hurry to their next class, a fleeting sense of relief washes over me. I had been afraid that…maybe I was wrong and he did care for me the way I assumed he did. But now…My beliefs were confirmed. We were approved. Now all that was in my way was a hazel-eyed girl who gets her way too much. I'd be sure to set her straight at the end of the day. Its strange really, so many conflicts with so many different way to fix them. But everything always turns out okay, right? There's nothing to worry about, Shizuka might resist but everyone would get their way, right? I hope so. I really can't stand hurting Jounouchi or deceiving Shizuka and myself anymore. Jounouchi was worth any hate Shizuka could dish out my way. Lost of people hate me, one more person isn't really going to make much of a difference. She actually may end up hating me, but at least we all know she could never end up hating Jounouchi.
XxXNormal POVXxX
Jounouchi stayed back after class got over, waiting for Kaiba.
"Can we stop by my house first? I need to pick up and drop off some thins. Then we can go confront Shizu." He suggested. Kaiba nodded, still shy while being around Jounouchi. It was a little new to him and he didn't really know hoe to act.
"Sure. Do you want to take my car or—"
"Nah, we can walk! Its such a nice day out, plus, you need to see some sunlight, you're whiter than a ghost!"
Somehow, Jounouchi's jibe on his physical appearance didn't settle too well in the brunet's stomach. It made him feel weird, odd, silly…and for some reason he really wanted to get a tan now that Jounouchi mentioned it.
Said blond noticed the look on his partner's face and smiled.
"Don't worry, I didn't mean it. I like you just the way you are." He said. "Who knew the famous Kaiba Seto was self-conscious?" he mused., Kaiba's temper flared.
"I'm not!…just when you say it…" he muttered. Jounouchi smiled in remembrance.
"Good to know I can still pull your chain. It would totally bite if we all the sudden got along just because of what's happening between us. Don't you think, eh, Kaiba?" Jounouchi asked, smirking back at the brunet. Kaiba smiled as well, agreeing wholeheartedly.
"Just what I was thinking, pup." Jounouchi frowned.
"Don't call me pup." Kaiba laughed and Jounouchi soon followed.
Both were walking up to Jounouchi's front door when they stopped and froze. Neither had noticed the smaller strawberry blonde haired girl come up to them before she as directly in front of them.
"Shizu—"
"So, you both come back to deceive me again?" she asked, her voice a deep green with jealousy. Jounouchi's heart nearly fell to the ground.
"No, Shizuka I—"
"Urusai! Baka Jounouchi!"
The blond winced, she had never called him by their last name before…ever…How cruel was she…
"Shizuka—"
"I don't want hear anything out of you, you back stabbing bastard!"
"Shizuka, please listen to us, we didn't mean to hurt you! We're sorry!" Jounouchi pleaded. Shizuka huffed.
"Sure you are. That's why you kissed my boyfriend knowing I was on my way home…that's why you're walking with him now, right?" she spat sarcastically. "I thought you hated him!" she nearly screamed.
"He didn't kiss me, I kissed him!" Kaiba tried in vain to interrupt. Shizuka's head whipped to the side, glaring daggers into Kaiba's eyes, it was so cold, it made even Kaiba flinch.
"Was I talking to you?! No I wasn't! Wait your turn and don't butt in!" the small Jounouchi snarled.
Kaiba growled at her, nobody told him to wait his turn…Jounouchi stepped up, seeing his more or less lover about to go ballistic on his sister. He set his hand to the brunet's chest, keeping his at bay with a small pleading look.
"I want to hear this from my brother." Shizuka bit out he word bitterly. Jounouchi was beyond shocked. He didn't think his sister could be so mean…so unforgiving. "Well? What the hell happened?! First I'm in the coolest relationship any girl would die for and suddenly my boyfriend goes and French kisses my brother, something he hadn't even done with me! I think I'm taking this rather well actually! Katsuya…you…you are such a fucking flirt with the girls in my Japanese class…I never would have thought you'd be into someone shoving a stick up your ass!"
That hurt. That hurt more than Jounouchi could even describe. It hurt so much that he felt, he physically felt his heart clench and cave in his chest, his shoulders lurching forward to shield his wounded heart.
Seeing that Jounouchi was well, finished and defeated, she turned to Kaiba.
"And you! What kind of person are you?! How could you just stray someone along making them think they had a chance and then go kiss someone of the same sex right in front of your girlfriend's face?!" she was in a rage and Kaiba had to clasp his fists tightly together just to keep himself from hurting her. He couldn't believe she'd said that to her own brother. He could feel his lover's pain…and it made his own heart ache. "Why did you stray me along this whole time?!"
"I tried to deny it! I tried to make myself believe I could love you and be with you! You…look so much like Jounouchi…I thought I could fool myself into thinking you were him…I know it was wrong…But I thought...that if I couldn't have him…then I could at least have some part of him…"
"So…So you used me!"
"No! I—"
"You used me!" she yelled again. "You used me to get to my brother! I hate you Kaiba Seto! I hate you! I was doing you a favor! I was giving you a life outside of your cramped little office! I gave you a life! Without me you'd—"
"You never gave me anything except maybe a physical sickness that wouldn't die down until you were far away from me! How dare you say you gave me something! How dare you say you helped me! You were only trying to help yourself! What with all your none too subtle pressing up against me and rubbing yourself all over me! All you were trying to do was get laid! You're nothing but a whore you know that? A dirty worthless whore that I want nothing to do with. You'd think a girl would give up after not causing stimulation out of me after a half an hours worth of trying but no…all you wanted was to get off, no matter how repulsed I was by your every move. Besides, I'd pick tight over loose any day."
Shizuka was absolutely flabbergasted. She stood there with her mouth wide open and her eyes unbelieving. After a second or two her eyes began to fill with embarrassment and anger at Kaiba's words. She wasn't a whore! Even if all he said was true! She was not a whore! She looked ready to speak again but Kaiba cut her off.
"I don't care what you say. Katsuya's the one I want—And I'll be damned if I let you get in my way." The brunet hissed, deciding to drop all formalities, as it would begin to get confusing. Jounouchi stared in shock at the now silent CEO. It didn't help that then man wouldn't even look at him either…
"Oh yeah? Well, what if he doesn't want you? Are you just gonna be some lust struck puppy trailing along behind him—lonely and sad without master's attention—"
"I love him! I'd rather be locked in a castle dungeon for eternity than have what you say change my mind!" Kaiba yelled out, finally loosing his cool as his face tinted pink at his outburst.
"Yeah right." Shizuka finally said after a few seconds. She smirked evilly. "Yeah right. Like you two could ever be together, even if your love is pure. You're male. You'll be looked down upon. Shunned. Two males can never be together. And once this gets out…its only a matter of time before you're crawling back to me—begging me to forgive your sorry ass. Until then…see ya."
Jounouchi growled as she left, glad she was gone although she had left them in shambles. He walked up to his dragon, wrapping his arms around the brunet's waist, hugging him tight.
"I love you too."
"She's not right you know." Kaiba said hugging Jounouchi.
"About what?"
"About us…just don't worry. I wont let anyone harm you." Kaiba said. Jounouchi sighed and leaned up to whisper in Kaiba's ear.
"I believe you…I love you…" Kaiba smiled lightly and turned his head to kiss the blond. Their lips met in a soft passionate kiss, melting all of Jounouchi's fears in an instant. He just hoped…he wouldn't have to worry forever.
"Whatever happens Jounouchi, I'm always here for you. I promise." Jounouchi smiled, he believed every thing else that man said…but for some reason…he just couldn't believe this would all be okay…because he knew it wouldn't be.
XxXJounouchi's POV Time Passing POVXxX
Since then…everything's gone down hill…Shizuka won't talk to me…She's told all of her girlfriends that I'm…fully and openly "gay", quote unquote. I've learned to hate the world with a passion ever since we've gotten together…Nobody in school will talk to me because I'm…this way…
To think that Honda and I had used to mock people…and call them as such is just…horrible.
I know I love Kaiba…but…I don't know if I can handle all of this…its not going too well for us…I know I love him…I love him so much it hurts…And I know it'll hurt even more once I've…broken up with him. I know it seems desperate…but I just cant handle everything they're saying…how they looks at me and knock me down in the halls…I cannot do this anymore…Even if I love him…I'll just…break up with him and find a girl to date. Yeah. That's what I'll do.
Gods, I'm so sorry Kaiba…
XxXNormal POVXxX
Jounouchi had just arrived at Kaiba's house, the butler directing him to where the brunet was working. When he entered the room it was deadly quiet…all sound was wiped save for the fierce beating of the blond's heart. Jounouchi saw Kaiba typing away quietly on his laptop and walked over to him. Kaiba turned around and smiled upon seeing the amber-eyed boy.
"Konnichiwa, Jounouchi. How are you?" he asked. Jounouchi hesitated, unable to answer…or to look into those shimmering cerulean eyes…filled with love…adoration and devotion…Ever so suddenly, Jounouchi's eyes flooded with tears and he knew he had to say it now before he broke.
"I can't be with you!" he screamed blindly, the tears falling over the borders at the jerking of his body. Kaiba's eyes widened as he saw the tears, but filled with hurt as the words left the blond's lips. It was as if a fresh wound had been sliced open and the blond had rubbed salt into it. But Kaiba swore he wouldn't give up without a fight.
"Why not?" he asked, the emotion seeping though and into his voice. Jounouchi turned away, frowning to keep the tears at bay.
"I just can't. I made a mistake. You and I will be nothing but enemies!" Jounouchi yelled, turning and walking to the door. Kaiba grasped his wrist and pulled him around.
"I need a better answer than that." Jounouchi glared at him.
"Fuck off, I told you, I made a mistake. Now let me go."
"If it's a mistake…why are you crying?"
Jounouchi wrenched his hand back and ran. He couldn't bear to hear another word…How horrible…but he couldn't handle it…he had to do this…he had to…It was for the best.
"Katsuya!"
XxXKaiba's POVXxX
He didn't return after I called out to him…although I wasn't really expecting him to. I'm, so confused…What had caused his sudden outburst? Why did he say that to me? It obviously pained him to have to say that…I don't know what's wrong…I just know that I have to fix it. No matter what it is…
It would be a waste of time to try and hunt him down now, since he's probably already half way to his house…He'd hide from me anyway…I guess I'll just have to wait until I see him tomorrow.
The next day, I arrived at school earlier than I normally do, waiting by the front entrance. Jou comes to school early every once in a while…that would be my chance to straighten things out between us…and find out what had driven him to say such horrible things to me.
I see him coming up…but he's with someone, so I quickly hide against a wall, knowing he can't see me. I spy on him slyly…he's with a female…not one that I know though…and its not the same ones he usually hangs out with…They say their parting words, Katsuya leans down…and he…kisses her. I whip my head around, my heart pounding loudly in my ears as I fill deeply with grief…My hand grips my chest…as my heart feels like its about to burst…
This feeling is like no other…I cant even hope to explain it in anyway at all…Its almost as if I'm dying inside…at seeing him kiss someone else…
Fuck, how could I be so stupid?! How could I believe he'd love me as I did him?! This was all just some stupid fucking game! False tears…false hope…gods…
My hand fists at my side…I wont believe this. There has to be an explanation behind this. I know his tears weren't fake. I will get to the bottom of this. I swear it.
XxXJounouchi's POVXxX
I kiss her gently, without too much enthusiasm but enough to seem like I truly mean it. She seems satisfied and leaves to go to her first class.
Gods I cant believe this…I never would have expected this in all my life…After everything I've been through…I still wont get my happy ending. I walk into my next class and see Shizuka in the hall. She knew of the abuse I'd been suffering on her behalf and she smirks.
"How's life treating you, brother?"
She seems to think she can talk to me after what happened…Yeah right. I ignore her and sit into my desk. What else could I do? She's being terribly snide as of lately. Short abusive comments to her friends, pointing and laughing at me…I've seen her in a whole knew light…she is so cruel. I can hardly believe this is the baby sister I worked so hard to help…the baby sister I grew up with and was the world to me…
My class ended and the day went on. I pass my new girlfriend in the hall and smiled at her. She smiled happily back. I knew what it meant to be dating Jounouchi Katsuya. The girls are always giggling about how I smiled at them, or winked at them…Small stuff like that. So I guess to be going out with me is a pretty big thing to all these girls. Feh. I suppose Shizuka hasn't even heard yet…of my girlfriend…but once she does, the rumors will stop and she'll look like a fool. I really don't want to do that to her but jeez…She's really given me no choice. All the sudden she seems just like our mother…no, her mother.
Behind her, I saw Kaiba walking into our next class…fuck it, I didn't want to see him so soon. Hell, I didn't want to see him ever…! Not again, I can hardly stand that look in his eyes.
Standing tall, I walk into the classroom proud and arrogant. I sat at my desk nonchalantly, paying close attention to the teacher, although my mind was no where near the math she was teaching.
My mind wandered back to the girl I met earlier…I wasn't surprised, it was never hard for me to get a girlfriend, and I knew it wouldn't be now. Girls practically lined up for me, not that I'm stuck up…but I know once Kaiba sees who I'm with…I know he'll be hurt. I don't want to hurt him of course…But it would at least prevent him from taking me back by force. I know that's what he ants. But I can't let him. I can tell he's been staring at me all hour…trying to get me to look back…I can almost feel him raking his eyes over my body, it makes me squirm a bit, under such scrutiny…But it also makes me anxious…and he knows it. He wants to straighten things out…but I swear I wont let that happen.
Nearing the end of first hour, the brunet walked by, dropping a folded paper on my desk. When I was sure he was looking, I deliberately picked it up, went across the room and dropped it into the trashcan, without even glancing at what was written. For a split second his expression looked as if I had just slapped him clear across the face, but then it disappeared and his eyes froze over once again. It was the icy glare I had seen for so long, the look I had gotten used to before we got together, before he and Shizuka had gotten together…
I return to my seat, quietly listening to what the teacher had to say, forcing myself not to look over at him. Only a few minutes alter the bell rang. I stood and began shoving my homework in my bag, wanting to get out of there as fast as possible. A shadow cast over my desk and I knew I was too late.
"What's going on with you, mutt?" I sigh and face him defiantly.
"Nothing."
"Then why do you avoid me?"
"I told you, there's nothing between us, and there never will be. So stop trying to relive what was and get on with your life." I say, trying to remain as emotionless as I began.
"You're a damned liar! You—"
"Shut up Kaiba! I was wrong, okay?! I admit it! I was wrong! I was mixed up! I don't want anything to do with you! Leave me alone!" I growled out.
"You're lying." Kaiba said, his voice hushed.
"No, I'm not." I said, not quite as sure as my voice sounded. "You need to move on Kaiba, and get a life." I said harshly. Kaiba's eyes faltered and then hardened as he moved closer to my, our bodies nearly pressed together.
"You're lying, and I'm going to find you out if it's the last thing I ever do." He whispered, leaving a hot and angry kiss upon my lips as he left. Gods…My heart was beating so fast I didn't know if it would ever calm…Even in anger…I could still feel the love he felt for me in that simple kiss…It made me feel even worse about all this.
I slowly grabbed my stuff, almost in a trance as I walked to my next class. I saw my girlfriend with her friends and smiled at her faintly. She smiled and waved back at me. My next class isn't with Kaiba, thank god…Unfortunately…her's…is.
XxXNormal POVXxX
Kaiba stormed into class angrily. Many students looked up at him in shock, some even recoiled at his ready to kiss death glare.
A short girl walked in next. She had short blonde hair with strikingly crimson eyes known to shine cerulean in the sunlight. She laughed lightly to her friends, waved and walked to her seat quietly.
Kaiba growled viciously as she passed by, his lips curving upward in a snarl, revealing sharp white teeth. The girl looked frightened before hurrying to her seat. Kaiba sat down as well, his seat far in the back row…away from nearly everyone. Class progressed before it came to free time. This particular teacher always allowed them to have free time. Kaiba hated it. The time he wasn't doing anything was the time his mind wandered…wandered onto Jounouchi.
"Kaiba-sama." The girl he insulted before was talking t him, although he could hardly imagine why. He didn't look up, though, he wouldn't. "Kaiba-sama? May I talk to you?" Kaiba looked up angrily, ready to scare her away once again, but stopped upon seeing her. For the first time noticing, she was absolutely breathtaking. Beautiful, god-like in nearly every way…no wonder Jounouchi wanted her…she was much more attractive than he was…and plus…and she was girl.
…no wonder Jounouchi wanted her.
Kaiba looked down, back at his paper, ignoring her completely.
"Kaiba-sama, I've gone to school with you for more than four years. You've never set aside time to insult me then and all the sudden you start? What's up? Obviously something is wrong, Kaiba-sama. What is it? I certainly didn't do anything to you…Why are you acting so oddly?"
Kaiba stayed quiet. Yes, he remembered her…not as if he had forgotten…he knew who she was, and she was right. He had never paid attention to her before…now…now she must be confused.
"Look girl—"
"Warui." Kaiba frowned at being interrupted, but continued anyway.
"Look, Warui-san, I was just in a bad mood. You are no different from them. So I suggest you stop flattering yourself."
She laughed kindly. "You're funny, Kaiba-sama. But really? Why are you so angry? Is this about your rivalry with Jounouchi Katsuya? That, he has a girlfriend and you don't? Did he throw that in your face?"
Kaiba faltered. "No. No he didn't." he whispered.
"Well then, what's the big deal?! Kaiba you're not one to act this way for no reason at all!" Warui was persistent, she wouldn't give up without a good fight. "Kaiba, tell me why you—"
"Because I love him, alright?!" Kaiba nearly growled, eyes sparking with irritability. Crimson orbs widened…could this man actually be in love with her boyfriend?
"I…I thought the…I thought it was only rumors…"
"Well it wasn't, so now you know. Anything else you'd like to learn about my personal life?" he responded gruffly.
"N…No." she said unevenly. "All I wanted to know was why you were so angry with me…that's all."
"Good for you. Now will you leave me be? I don't feel like wasting my valuable free time talking to you."
"What happened?" she asked suddenly. Kaiba looked up at her, annoyed.
"None of your business."
"This isn't right…Obviously, he must love you too! What happened? Please tell me!" she said almost desperately. When she received no answer she walked off, Kaiba growling in spite of her. He felt his heart shatter. Jounouchi's girlfriend seemed so…so…easy going, happy and willing to help…Kaiba wanted to throttle the blond, he wanted to kiss him….he waned to…Kaiba didn't know what he really wanted to do…he was torn apart. Part of him wanted to be happy for what Jounouchi had, the other part was resisting the urge to scream.
Warui Hikari slowly walked back to her desk, confused and baffled. She didn't want to lose her boyfriend…the boy that finally seemed to be 'the one'. But…but Kaiba-sama even admitted he was in love with him…
There had to be something behind all this. There had to be a reason for Jounouchi's actions. And she'd be damned if she'd just watch this tragedy fly by without doing anything at all.
Class got out and Warui left quickly, looking for Jounouchi.
Jounouchi turned out of his class, spotting his girlfriend not far away.
"Hikari-chan!" he greeted. She waltzed up to him, brought her hand back and slapped him clear across the face, a loud clap resounding in the halls.
"How could you do that to him?!" she nearly screamed, tears glistening in her crimson eyes, turning them lightly cerulean. Jounouchi turned back to her, confused. "You know what I'm talking about! About Ka—" Jounouchi covered her mouth and took her back into an empty hallway.
"How did you know about that?!" he asked frantically, removing his hand from her mouth.
"Kaiba-sama. He told me…Jounouchi how could you do that? He wouldn't tell me what happened so now you have to. And I want the whole truth."
"He doesn't know that reason. I just…I don't want to be with him anymore."
"Liar!" Jounouchi frowned.
"Really, I'm not that way." Hikari pulled him to her, kissing him on the lips, keeping her eyes open to watch his facial features. Discomfort. He looked uncomfortable. She then grasped his hands, rubbing them up her body, watching his face twist into distaste. Then disgust as she pushed his hands to her breasts. She pulled away a second later.
"If that doesn't prove it…you're a psycho. You love him, Jounouchi. Stop trying to lie to yourself."
"I can't handle everyone's…actions. Everyone's always…making fun of me for liking him. I can't handle it anymore. That's why."
"Don't worry. I'll take care of everything. You love him still, right?"
"…I do."
"Then go find him. Right now, go find him and tell him your feelings and why you left him."
"I can't." Jounouchi replied softly, rubbing his assaulted cheek gingerly. "If I tell him I left him because I was getting pushed around, he will hate me. I left him because of my own selfish reasons."
"Jounouchi," Hikari started. "he still loves you. He admitted to it. I'm sure he wants you back."
"But…but…"
"But nothing." She said firmly. "Well…it is getting late, you'll be tardy, but after this hour, go tell him. I'll find out if you don't." The blond sighed.
"All right…" Hikari smiled and they parted, setting off toward their classes. Jounouchi's thoughts suddenly turned dark. He didn't know what he would say to Kaiba…he didn't know what he could say…He'd betrayed him…
Jounouchi sighed and entered his next lass, spotting Kaiba effortlessly out of all the rest. He had this class and the next with him. He still didn't know what he could say.
Well that was a wonderful hour…note sarcasm thick…he wanted to talk to Kaiba…he tried to make his feet move…really…
Jounouchi walked out of class sullen and gloomy. He'd never be able to speak with the brunet ever again…not when he hurt him so much.
He stopped suddenly as he caught sight of Shizuka's glaring face across the hall…She moved forward and it suddenly got way too quiet in the halls…
