Jou: Um, TBM?
-snore- Whaaat?
Jou: Err, the readers are here…
Huh? –looks up- OH! Sorry! –gets up- Right! Well, I've got a new chapter done! I got a lot time over, seeing that I've been sick for the last three days. And seeing that I had nothing better to do than staring up at the ceiling, I decided that I might as well continue writing! XD
Err, anyway. I want to thank everyone who reviewed! I can't believe I've already gotten 63 reviews, after only two chapters! –glomps everyone who reviewed- I LOVE YOU ALL! See! When I get a lot of reviews, I try to write faster, and when I write faster, the chapters come faster as well!
Moving on! Disclaimers!
Disclaimer: Nope, don't own it yet. When I buy the rights for Yu-Gi-Oh, though, I will turn it into a yaoi show, and make Yami and Bakura have their own bodies so they can thoroughly ravish their hikaris, and make Seto confess his love for Jou so they can have hot, kinky se-err, I mean so they can kiss. Ehe…
Pairings: Mainly Seto/Jou, but with a few mentions of BxR, YYxY and other pairings.
Warnings: Might write a lime later on. Some language, and boys loving other boys. Don't like? Then why the hell are you still reading this warning?!
So yeah. Read, enjoy and review, everyone! –throws out chocolate for everyone to munch on-
Chapter 2Normal POV
Tuesday
Step 2: Make eye contact as often as possible. It's a sure way to show Him you're interested. Don't break it until you're sure He knows it's intentional.
"Okay, this should be an easy one, right?" Jou thought to himself, glaring down at his desk furiously. "Look him in the eye, and hold it. Yeah, piece of cake." Only one small problem.
Holding the eye of Seto Kaiba, without dying first of nervous eyebrow twitching, was close to impossible. Especially for Jou; not only did Seto Kaiba's cold, blue eyes give him the creeps like everyone else, he also got that damned fluttery feeling in his stomach whenever their gazes clashed!
Jou sighed deeply, and shook himself mentally. "Come on, Katsuya, you can do this!" He tried to encourage himself. "It's not like Kaiba's gonna kill you for looking at him…at least I think so…I mean, he hasn't killed anyone yet! That I know of anyway…ah, screw it. I'll die happily..."
Quickly, so he wouldn't loose his confidence again, Jou snapped his gaze up from his desk, and turned his gaze to the left of himself, towards the window where Seto sat. The brunet wasn't looking at him, however.
"Aw…how am I supposed to get him to look at me?" Jou whined inside his head. "Ah well…eventually, he'll look this way. And when he does…!" A low chuckle escaped Jou, and he kept his gaze locked on the brunet.
Jou was so focused on staring at Kaiba, that he momentarily forgot where he was. And what he was supposed to be doing…
"Mr. Jounouchi? Why are you staring at Mr. Kaiba?" The cold voice of the teacher had Jou flinching, and quickly snap his head towards the front of the classroom.
Standing leaned over his desk, glaring furiously at him, was the teacher; a freakishly tall man in his thirties, with long copper hair that every girl in the class had or had had a crush on. His name was Yoru Nagisa, and for some reason he seemed to hate Jou's guts.
…okay, so the 'nail-on-the-chair' thing might have something to do with it. But that was months ago! Hadn't he gotten over it?
…by the way Yoru was glaring, Jou was going to guess no.
Jou blushed deeply, while the entire class snickered at him. "I wasn't staring at him! I was just…looking out the window!"
At the smirk that was growing on Yoru's lips, as rapidly as a baby's wail in a silent church, Jou knew he was doomed.
"Oh really? If you have failed to notice, Mr. Jounouchi, the window isn't positioned straight through Mr. Kaiba's head." With a snort, the redhead straightened up. "Now spare me your ignorance, stop staring at Mr. Kaiba like a love sick girl and actually pay attention for once."
By then, Jou just knew that his face was as red as a stop light. (it was probably glowing like one too!) "Y-Yes, sir." He muttered, while the entire class kept laughing at him.
"Good." Yoru turned back to the black board, starting to write down notes with hasty flicks of his wrists, angry screeches escaping his pen.
Jou sighed, and bent down over his desk again. Ah well…he'd try again during next lesson. And this time, he'd keep a look out for stupid, meddling teachers with bad hair.
------
Seto Kaiba was officially lost.
All day, ever since that first lesson, Jounouchi had been staring at him. Not in a dazed 'I'm just looking at you because I'm bored and my gaze is stuck', or in a 'I'm trying to make your eyebrow twitch you into insanity' way. Something like that, Seto could handle by just glaring.
No…Jou had been looking at him, and when their eyes met, he would smile, and let his gaze linger for a few extra seconds, before he looked away. The smiles weren't his normal, cocky, shining grins either. The smiles were…almost shy, or coy. And they had Seto's stomach churn in an odd kind of way he had never experienced before. It was almost like-
Damnit, now he was doing it again!
Jou looked around himself for a second, to make sure the teacher wasn't watching. Then he turned to Seto, and looked him straight in the eye. Eyes sparkling slightly, Jou leaned his chin in his hand, cocked his head just slightly to the right and shot another small smile at the CEO.
Seto desperately wanted to glare. Really, he did! But, for some reason, that disarming smile stopped his glaring dead in it's tracks…before it could even begin! So instead, for the first time ever, Seto was the first one to snap his gaze away, so he could shoot a furious glare onto his desk.
The poor thing. Whatever had it done to deserve such wrath directed at it?
What was that blonde planning? He had to be planning something! And that something was probably something that Seto wouldn't enjoy. Like that time Jou had been staring at him all day, and then ended up falling into his lap in the cafeteria! Seto had ended up spilling out all his coffee, and the damn mutt had had the nerve to look up at him, smile and say 'oops!'.
Seto scowled. Well, if Jounouchi was planning another filthy attack on his being (or his coffee) he would be ready. Because there was no way that Jou would catch him off guard again, no matter how prettily he smiled.

Lunch
12.00 am
It would have been a normal. 'Jou-running-down-the-corridors-to-raid-the-cafeteria' day Really! Jou was dead hungry, and would have traded anything to have some food while he was heading towards the cafeteria, miles ahead of his friends.
But, alas. This was not a normal 'Jou-running-down-the-corridors-to-raid-the-cafeteria' day. Because, before Jou had gotten even half way down the first corridor, someone grabbed his arm and hauled him into an empty classroom.
Jou blinked up at the person who, obviously, had pulled him into the classroom.
"Kaiba?"
And yes. It was indeed Seto Kaiba, who was now glaring down at him with cold, cobalt eyes. Cold as in 'nude-in-Antarctica' cold. And for those of you who don't know; that's kind of chilly.
"Err, Kaiba? What do you-"
"I know what you're up to, mutt." Seto interrupted him, voice laced with ice. "And I assure you, it's not going to work."
A cold hand of fear gripped Jou's heart. Seto…knew? About him trying to seduce him? Had he really been that obvious?
"You…" Jou cleared his throat, and tried again. "You know about…"
"Well, I don't know the exact goal of your plans." Once again, the CEO interrupted Jou in the middle of speaking. "But I do know that you are planning something. I'm guessing it's something to publicly humiliate me, or something equally silly. It's not going to succeed." Seto leaned down, so close that their noses brushed. "I will keep my eyes on you…Jounouchi."
A deep tinge of red seeped in over the bridge of Jou's nose, as the brunet straightened up and marched out the door. "You…You do that." Jou retorted lamely, sending a half hearted glare in the CEO's direction.
When the door closed after the brunet, Jou sighed shakily and sunk down in one of the desks. Phew. That had been a close one. For a second, Jou had been certain he had been found out. And he had been so close to blurting it all out! Thank God for Kaiba's lack of manners. And for his stupid belief that everyone was out to get him…
Which they all are. With various intentions.
A low chuckle escaped Jou, as a huge grin grew on his face. For a genius, Seto Kaiba was kind of dumb.
Or, well. Paranoid.
