Chapter 7
Sunday. The last day of the weekend, he'd have to finish all his homework today, seeing as he was slightly preoccupied last night to do any, but even now sat alone in his room surrounded by books, homework was not one of the things in mind.
He had been pestered by grandpa asking questions about this person, Yugi was in so much shock over his gift Yami had to answer for him. His grandpa had lifted the bracelet out of his limp hands to admire it, saying how it was very fine craftsmanship and must of cost quite a bit. Yugi was surprised he had heard it, the rest of that day had been a bit of a blur, the movie he and Yami watched seemed fuzzed in his memory, he didn't even know what it was that he had watched.
Yugi was broken from his thoughts by a soft knocking.
"Come in" Yugi turned to see his visitor "What is it grandpa?"
"I have something for you" he held out a white rose and a card, placing them on Yugi's desk then leaving the room with a chuckle, leaving Yugi staring at the objects on his desk.
Hang on? it's a Sunday, the shops are closed, does this guy have his own personal rose garden or something?
Yugi ran his hand along the rose, gingerly threading the ribbon through his fingers, taking a deep breath Yugi opened the card up and read it's content.
I hope you liked your gift, you could wear it to the valentine's dance and perhaps you could meet me there. Kurenai
"OH MY GOD!!!!!!"
Yami rushed into the room to his side "What is it aibou?"
"He, he wants, he" Yugi incoherent mumblings made no sense to Yami, but his eyes flickered to the card in Yugi's hand.
Oh crap I've gone and freaked him out! Pretend I don't know about it.
"What did he say?"
His mouth opening and closing like a fish, all Yugi could do was hand him the card, and though of course Yami already knew what it said he read it anyway and feigned a look of surprise.
"Well what are you going to do?"
Yugi was momentarily stunned, this wasn't the reaction he'd expected from his other half "I, I don't know, what should I do?"
"Do you want to meet him or not?
Yugi gazed up at his yami in confusement "I don't know, I, I think so, I'm curious as to who he is"
"Do you think you could like this person Yugi?"
"I, I don't know, I don't know who they are, I don't know anything about them"
"You know that this person is caring, and that he's crazy about you. I think that is enough to meet them, then you can get to know him"
Yami seems a bit eager for me to meet this person, for me to like him.
"I suppose. It would be nice to meet him, maybe I could like him."
Yugi felt happier with Yami's support but he couldn't shake the feeling he got from this, Yami was hiding something from him. He had wondered, hoped even that perhaps Yami could have been his admirer, but he'd been with Yami all day yesterday, and the gift was there when he got back home, Yami didn't have the chance to go home.
"So how do I let him know I accept his offer, I can't exactly tell him."
Yami thought about this for a moment, he hadn't thought about this, thought of course he already knew that Yugi have accepted his request, bit he needed to come up with an answer for him.
"You could wear the bracelet at school tomorrow, that way it would show that by accepting the present you've accepted him, and his offer."
Yugi nodded, it really was a beautiful gift, but he just knew he'd be bombarded with questions about it when he went to school tomorrow.
-------BIG time jump Monday--------
"Hey Yugi where you get that bracelet?"
How did I know?
Luckily it was only Jou who asked, but unfortunately it drew the attention of others too. Yugi groaned in his hands, he didn't need more attention.
"Hey that looks like the bracelet we saw yesterday, actually I think it is the bracelet we saw yesterday"
Jou was perched on top of the desk next to Yugi, he grabbed Yugi's wrist to get a closer inspection but before he could reveal anything to the curious Yugi a hard voice interrupted their chatter.
"Get off my desk mutt!" Jou turned to meet the icy stare of Seto Kaiba.
Jou ignored him and turned back to his friends "Was it just me or did it just get colder in here" he faked a shudder and rubbed his arms as if trying to warm himself, the others laughed, but it was cut short by Seto's glare.
Jou felt Seto move closer to him, he felt a surprising warm breath on his neck "I said, get off my desk. Mutt!"
Jou let out an involuntary shiver at the air next to his ear, but refused to let Seto affect him "No thanks money bags, I'm pretty comfortable where I am" he let out a huge smile at Seto, pleased to be annoying the hotshot CEO, even if it was a little earlier that usual.
Seto merely grunted and sat down at his desk, hardly aware at the blonde haired puppy hanging over him, a goofy smile plastered on his face.
"You're such an idiot, you know that?" he scowled up at him.
"No cutting remarks today Seto? I'm disappointed in you"
He called me Seto He stared at Jou for a while, waiting till Jou was feeling uncomfortable under his gaze. Seeing his chance he shoved Jou off his desk. The result being the boy falling to the floor in a pile at Seto's feet
"On the floor by your master's feet, what a good puppy you are" He mockingly petted Jou's hair, surprised at how feather like it was to his touch.
Jou got to his feet, his hands clutched in anger at his cold eyed adversary, glaring daggers at him, who stared relentlessly back at him.
Jou was quite sure he would have hit the cold hearted bastard, that was if the teacher hadn't walked in the room at that precise moment.
"Jonouchi what are you doing? There is to be no fighting in this classroom"
"But Kaiba, he started it, he pushed me to the floor"
"Regardless, there is to be no fighting in class. I expect both of you in detention after school today, if you can't get along, I will force you."
"Detention with HIM!" both Seto and Jou shouted at their teacher, but their attention was quickly refocused on another.
"Stop saying what I'm saying!"
"Stop that!
"Both of you stop that!" the two continued to glare at each other, but their shouting contest was stopped by the teacher "Now if their aren't any other interruptions we can begin class.
Jou grudgingly took his seat, mumbling to himself, occasionally sending glares at the CEO, who sat oblivious his eyes focused on his laptop, typing away.
-----time jump------
"Hey Yugi have to got anything today?" Tea looked expectantly at him, waiting to see the next brilliant gift that Yugi was to receive.
But unfortunately for her, he shook his head. "Nope sorry, not yet."
"Did you check your desk? Your locker?"
But once again Yugi only shook his head, it was quite disappointing that he hadn't got anything yet, but the day was only half over, there was still time.
"Well lunch is almost over so he'll prob of put it in your desk for you to find when we go back to class."
Yugi smiled eagerly "Yeah maybe" he had a sudden urge to run to his classroom to see what he had got. He fidgeted nervously in his seat. causing Tea to laugh at him, this he did not like, so he pouted at her.
"You want to go now don't you?"
Yugi nodded so fast he thought his head might come off, everyone laughed at this causing Yugi to pout even more.
Yami smiled at his hikari, it would be alright if Yugi went now, he'd already deposited the rose in his desk, it was nice to see that Yugi was so excited about it. Proud to have brought joy to him this holiday, it seemed unbelievable that just days ago, Yugi hated valentines day with every fibre in his body. He guessed Jou must have been right, he only had only hated it because he didn't have anyone to share it with. But this year he did: me, he just doesn't know about it.
"If you want we can go see" Yami got to his feet and held out his hand to Yugi "Come on" Yugi blushed then held Yami's hand, as he pulled himself up. They made their way into the school building and to their classroom. Yugi was so preoccupied with his wondering thought he was unaware that their hands were still connected, nor that Yami had even tightened his grip around Yugi palm.
Yami smiled to himself, he couldn't wait to see Yugi's reaction, he'd had Ryou and Gina in on this one, he really owed them, big time.
Yugi opened the desk when a flicker of gold captured his eyes, not only was there a white rose, there was also something else, it was painted gold and had traces of glitter and faint curls of violet from the edges.
A mask?
Yugi held it up to the light, it was amazing, this guy must be talented, he made a mental note to check out the guys who were art majors.
"What do you think Yugi?" his attention was drawn back to Yami, who seemed rather excited by this "Do you like it?"
"Yes, its beautiful"
"What does the card say?"
Yugi didn't want to tear his eyes away from the mask but he would have to read the note to understand what was going on. He opened it and read it aloud for Yami to hear.
"I take it by you wearing the bracelet that you've accepted. Please meet me before midnight in the centre of the dance floor. Kurenai"
Yugi looked between the mask and the note "I'm guessing the mask is for me to wear at the dance, I didn't know it was masquerade, did you?"
Yami decided to play dum, which when you hang around with Jou you became very good at.
"No, not at all" He smirked to himself, but it quickly disappeared when he felt Yugi's scrutinising gaze upon him.
This is all going perfectly, just don't screw it up now.
