Notes: Setting may take place before the events of Yu-Gi-Oh season 1 /or 2 or 0; maybe slight AU and OOC

Summary: Seto Kaiba, the new rich kid at Domino High and an obviously rich geek is stuck with an utter "mutt" as his "bodyguard". JouxSeto

I have no idea if this is a unique plot line or not..."idk". Anyway, this is probably my first JouxSet fan-fic but probably not my last since I just love puppy love!


Perfect. It seemed like the right adjective to describe the teen before him. Although he didn't look like it (which helped in the act of deceit) the blonde was said to be the greatest fighter and a bully. His excuse for "serving" the new rich kid?

Punishment.

Ch. 1—Punishment

Jounouchi Katsuya set in the waiting room with a slight grin on his lips. In his pockets were some pieces of yen he had taken. "Lunch money" was his current prize and fortune. Only a few of it was left from spending during the days passed since the claiming of the money which crossed out that for the reason why he had was at the principal's. The previous smirk on his face changed to a look of confusion as he waited for the Principal to call his name. It took a few minutes for the man to do so. With an air of confusion and annoyance, the blonde teen headed into the office.

Curiously, Jounouchi looked around the office to see not only the expected Principal at his desk but the scowling, quiet rich kid from his homeroom. While his eyes darted around the room while waiting for some explanation, the blonde soon remembered the brunet's name to be Seto Kaiba; the future CEO of Kaiba corps or was he the current CEO? Jounouchi wasn't sure or cared. The confused expression Jounouchi had became more obvious as he looked from one person to the next. He doubted he was in here because of doing something to the Kaiba teen since he was sure that he did no such thing. Why bother with someone who could sue your ass for giving them a bruise?

Upon a few moments since his entrance, the principal finally spoke by saying, "Seto Kaiba-kun, I believe that you know Jounouchi Katsuya-kun." He seemed a tad uneasy about the situation as he looked over to the introduced teen. "So this is the one who is to be your student bodyguard…at least for the semester."

"NYEH?!? B-bodyguard? S-sensei, what're you talking about? I can't be a bodyguard, not to Kaiba anyway!" Jounouchi exclaimed in confusion. He looked between his "peer" and the principal with the same look of confusion on his face. Never had he heard of any "bodyguard" program in the past and began to suspect Kaiba for the start of this "bodyguard" thing.

"It's time you put that brute force f yours to good use Jounouchi-kun. And since you have been known of starting and getting into several fights and other similar kinds of abuse, we decided that it was only fit for you to have such a job. Besides, the two of you have the same homeroom class."

"Why not just get someone with all his classes?"

"We can't really find someone fit to do the job and has all his classes plus your classes allow you two to talk together or nearby during the times when Kaiba-kun may be threatened and 'open', so to say, to various…'dangers'."

The principal raised his hands slightly to put quotation marks on the final word.

Jounouchi looked over at Kaiba, his chocolate eyes narrowing slightly as they examined the brunet teen. The brunet had a similar face to Jounouchi's however he seemed to be hiding it. Maybe it really wasn't his fault?

It was then that the afternoon bell rang and the two were dismissed with a slight note in Jounouchi's head.

He was to be on the job starting tomorrow.
