Chapter Six

"Where did you disappear to last night, Seto?"

"I went to get Jou. He needed a ride somewhere."

"Oh, yeah. I remember him calling."

"He stayed here last night."

"He did? Seto, you…"

I quit listening outside and slide the door open. "Thank you for letting me stay here last night, Seto."

"Anytime, Jou. I mean that. Anytime you need a place to stay, you're welcome here," says Seto.

"Can we talk privately for a few moments, Seto?" I ask lowering my eyes.

"Of course. Let's go into my office," says Seto standing up from the breakfast table and leading me to his home office. He guides me over to the couch, and we both sit down together. "What is it, Jou?"

"I can't go back to my place. I know I need to get my stuff, but I just can't live there anymore," I say.

"Where will you live? That room could be yours permanently if you want it."

"I'm going to ask Grandpa Motou if I can stay with them."

Seto looks down sadly.

"I appreciate everything you've done, but I don't think my boyfriend would like me staying with you. It's public knowledge that Yugi's my best friend," I explain, "So Yami wouldn't think I was sleeping with Yugi."

"Yes. I see your point. I would be jealous of any man sharing a home with the person I love," says Seto, "I understand, but you will agree to stay with me if Grandpa Motou can't afford to support you."

I nod.

"Okay."

"Will you help me go get my stuff today and go talk to Grandpa?" I ask, "I don't want to go to school today…"

"I've taken the liberty of informing the principal of your father's death. They're not expecting you to be there before Monday at the earliest," says Seto, "and they aren't expecting me today since I'm doing the funeral prep."

"So can we go?"

"Do you want to eat something first?"

I shake my head.

"Okay, then. We'll leave the limo for Mokuba and take my car… Wait. How much stuff do you have? We could take the minivan," says Seto.

"You own a minivan?" I blink in confusion. "Why do you need a minivan?"

"For discretion when Mokuba and his friends want to go to the zoo or amusement park or wherever," says Seto smiling, "Or to soccer practice."

"Seto's a soccer mom!" I chuckle.

Seto raises his hand for a moment before clenching his fist. "Come on. We'll take the minivan."

"Wait until I tell everyone at school that Seto's a soccer mom!" I exclaim following Seto out of the room.

Seto grabs my hand and pulls me along gently. "No one will believe it of course, but you're free to tell whoever you want."

"Okay! I will!"

We climb into the minivan, and Seto drives us out of the garage and away from the estate.

I sing along with the radio as we travel. I don't want to talk just yet, but I can't stand silence, so I sing. I see you smiling and tapping your fingers on the wheel. I smile. Smiles are contagious.

The minivan pulls to a stop outside of my place.

Seto and I climb out and head inside.

Seto looks at the coat closet. "Should we start in your room?"

I nod and lead the way to my room. I freeze when I see my bed cleared of its sheets.

Seto places his hand on my shoulder.

"Maybe he'd been planning on doing laundry before he got…"

"Maybe…"

I rush to my closet and throw the door open. I bring out my school uniforms and two other outfits… the white jeans, Blue-Eyes t-shirt, and green shirt and a pair of black jeans and light blue sweater. "Most of my clothes are gone."

"What about your deck, Jou? Do you have your Duel Monster's Deck?" asks Seto.

My eyes widen, and I dive under my bed in a panic. I bring out a metal lock box and notice that it's been busted open. "I… I can't look!"

Seto takes the box from my hands and sits down on my bed. He opens the lid and lifts out an envelope before saying, "It's here… or at least, your Red-Eyes is in here with a stack of Duel Monsters cards."

I breathe a sigh of relief as I sit down beside Seto and lift my deck to look through all the cards. "They're all here! I thought… when I saw the lock was broken, I thought he'd taken my deck…"

"He opened the box to give you this," says Seto passing me the envelope, "Do you want me to leave you alone while you read it?"

"I'll read it later. Let's just get my stuff and get out of this house," I say.

"Okay. Why don't you take all this out to the minivan and I'll see what else is here," says Seto.

I nod and gather up my clothes and lock box to go outside.

Seto opens a drawer of my dresser and pulls out my photo frames and album.

I come back inside in time to see Seto blushing as he holds up a mesh bodysuit. "What the hell is that?"

"Shouldn't you be telling me that?" asks Seto, "After all, this is your house and apparently your underwear drawer." He places it on the bed. "I think your boyfriend will really like seeing you in that."

My entire body blushes. "We… we don't have that kind of relationship…"

"Yet anyway," says Seto, "but one day… when you're both ready… you will. I think sex between two people who really, deeply love each other, people who are each other's best friend, is a truly wonderful and amazing thing. Sex should never be given out freely. It is too special for that."

"I love him."

"I didn't mean to imply you don't, Jou."

"I love him, but he isn't my best friend. There's still so much I don't know about him. I'm willing to learn all there is," I say, "and I'd like to wait to have sex with him until we know each other better. But if he asks…"

"Your resistance might crumble."

"Never know." I move up beside Seto and help him empty my sock and underwear drawer onto the bed. "It's different."

"I'm sorry. What's different?"

"That! You. Me. Us. Everything. You just apologized. We're sitting here going through my unmentionables and talking about sex! A month ago we'd never be doing any of this! I like this… being able to talk to you like a friend." I lean into you. "Thank you for being here."

"I'm glad to be able to help."

"Let's hurry so we can get out of here!"

"What do you think happened to the rest of your clothes?" asks Seto.

"Dad knows a guy who does estate sales. You know… he buys dead people's stuff and resells it at flea markets, online, or in his used shop. A lot of my new clothes will resell high online," I say, "I bought some stuff for myself with my Duel Monsters winnings."

"And now you have nothing," says Seto, "I'll go see if I can find a bag to put this stuff in."

"Yeah. I'll check the rest of the house for any of my stuff that might be around," I say.

Seto nods, and we both leave the room.

I look through the rest of the house and only carry my bag of schoolbooks back into my room to see Seto stuffing everything into a plastic trash bag. "This is all there is. At least my Deck is still here."

Seto tosses the mesh bodysuit in the bag. "This is everything then. Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah. There's nothing left for me here."

"I'll drive you to the Kame Game Shop then," says Seto.

I nod as I follow Seto out to the minivan.

"You know you're welcome at my place, right?"

"I know… Can I ask you a huge favor?"

"Anything."

"I'm supposed to meet Yami here tomorrow night. Could you meet him instead and tell him where I'm staying? I just don't want to come back here again!"

"All right, Jou. I'll meet Yami. I'll explain everything."

"I'll write a note for you to give him too. After all, we've never been seen as friends. I don't want him to think I'm blowing him off, but I won't be up to clubbing this weekend," I say.

"Your father just died. No one would complain about you needing a bit of time to… adjust."

I smile until my stomach growls.

"Do you feel up to eating?"

"Not really, but I know that I should. It's not healthy to just stop eating," I say with a sigh.

"We'll make a stop before the game shop then," says Seto turning down a side road.

"Thanks…"

Seto stops the minivan outside a discreet little restaurant with a plaque in the window reading 'Voulez-Vous.'

"Where are we?" I ask.

"Voulez-Vous. It's a rather exclusive restaurant. The desserts are to die for! We'll start with the dessert menu and then move to something more substantial if you still feel like eating," says Seto.

I smile as we climb out and walk into the building.

"Kaiba-sama! Welcome!" exclaims a woman in a formal evening gown despite the fact it's early afternoon. "Who is this positively charming young man you're with?"

"Jounouchi-sama," says Seto respectfully, "A very good friend."

"Please, follow me," says the woman leading us to a candlelit table.

"Thank you. We would like to start with dessert, please," says Seto taking his seat.

The woman smiles and begins speaking rapidly in a foreign language or two.

Seto holds up his hand to stop the woman's tirade and speaks to her in what I think is French. He smiles when she walks away. "I'm sorry if you didn't understand her. She gets excited about food. Mokuba and I normally get a special dessert sample platter. We call it 'Desserts of the World' because it showcases foods of many different origins. She only serves it to us. It's not actually on the menu."

"Do you two come here often?"

"No. We only eat out on weekends, and there are several restaurants we might go to. This place is an indulgence we must earn. I'll have to increase my workout routine for a week to work off all the calories in these desserts!"

"Are you sure I wouldn't be intruding on your life with Mokuba if I moved in with you?"

Seto looks at me hopefully. "We have plenty of room for you, and Mokuba would like to have another big brother around. I spend as much time with him as I can, but I do have to work a lot. He doesn't need a babysitter, but I would feel more comfortable if he wasn't alone in the house."

"Okay."

"Okay?"

"I'll move in with you and Mokuba. Grandpa Motou would certainly welcome me into his home, but it might get a little cramped and I don't want to be a burden to him," I say, "I'll stay with you since you seem to really want me there." I smile.

"Great! There are a few house rules though," says Seto smiling, "First, no one calls after ten unless it's an emergency. Mokuba goes to bed at ten. You and I will be going to bed at eleven."

I blush.

"We get up at six-thirty. Breakfast is served at seven. Homework is done before dinner. Games played after dinner," says Seto, "I will expect you to set a good example for my little brother. Your friends can come over just so long as they're well behaved. And no one enters my home office unless I invite them in."

"Okay," I say.

"I'll replace everything your father got rid of," says Seto.

"You don't need to…"

"Yes, I do. You won't be wearing your school uniform all the time."

A huge platter lowers in front of us, and I look up at the woman in shock.

"Thank you," says Seto.

"So many desserts!" I rub my stomach happily as Seto helps me carry my stuff to my room.

"Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it," says Seto chuckling, "Mokuba will be home soon, and I have some work to do. Will you be okay alone for a bit?"

"Yeah. I'm fine," I say.

"If you need anything, my cell phone number is on the refrigerator. I hope this won't take too long, but I'll be home in time for dinner at least," says Seto.

"Okay. I'm going to take a nap," I say.

Seto reaches out and caresses my cheek for a second before turning and leaving my room. He goes to his home office and boots up his computer so that he can engage the tracking device on his laptop and locate it. In a matter of moments, he holds a printout with the address and directions on how to get there. With this in hand, he heads out.

Seto takes two bodyguards in his limo with him when he leaves the mansion.

"Where are we going, sir?"

"I lent my laptop to a friend, and his father sold it," says Seto, "So we're going to retrieve it."

"By force?"

"If necessary."

"I hope it's necessary," says one bodyguard.

"Do you want us to rough up the father too?" asks the other bodyguard.

"He's dead," says Seto.

"Shit."

"I think he sold everything to give my friend some money to start a new life before he committed suicide," says Seto, "He stepped in front of a moving vehicle."

The limo pulls to a stop in front of a dingy thrift store, and the three climb out and enter.

The man behind the counter glares at Seto. "I don't give directions."

"And I don't need them," says Seto simply, "Are you the owner?"

"What do you care?"

"A man named Jounouchi sold a great deal of my belongings, at least one of which is here," says Seto glaring at the man.

"Are you calling Jounouchi a thief?"

"I'm calling him confused. He sold several of his son's items with mine, and he was no doubt uncertain what belonged to whom," says Seto, "How they got here is none of my concern. I need everything he sold you back. I mean everything!"

"Then I need the money back," says the man, "I gave Jounouchi 200,000 yen for all that shit."

"Fine. Gather everything he sold you," says Seto pulling out his checkbook. He watches the man gather together the clothes, dishes, bedding and other items.

"This is everything," says the man.

"Don't lie to me."

"This is it. Everything Jounouchi sold me," says the man.

"Some of the clothing was brand name leather and there was also a computer," says Seto.

"No, there wasn't," says the man.

"Gentlemen," says Seto.

One of the bodyguards cracks his knuckles. "Now, we know for a fact the computer's here. Do you want to hand it over all nice-like, or are we going to have to find it ourselves?"

"I don't have a laptop!" sneers the man.

"I never said it was a laptop," says Seto smirking, "although it is. You've just proved that you do have it."

"You might want to wait outside, boss," says the second guard.

Seto nods and grabs the bags already set aside and heads out to put them in the limo. He's just arranging the last bag in the trunk when his bodyguards come out carrying three more. He raises an eyebrow.

"We have the laptop too."

"Good," says Seto as his men put the bags in the trunk, "How much is the damage?"

"Not bad," says the guard, "He seemed quite pleased when I gave him 500,000 yen to pay for it all."

"The agreed price was two," says Seto.

"But the damage was also two."

Seto nods. "It doesn't matter. Let's go."

They get back in the limo and return to the mansion, and they all carry the bags up to my room.

Seto enters to find me lying on the bed, whimpering in my sleep. He motions for the others to be quiet as they enter to deposit the bags of my stuff. He waits for them to leave before softly whispering into my ear, "Time to wake up now, Hikari."

"Yami?" I slowly open my eyes and see you for a moment before I blink. When I open my eyes again, I see Seto sitting beside me.

"It sounded like you were having a nightmare," says Seto, "Are you okay?"

I blush and shift to try to hide my arousal. "I'm okay. It was nothing."

"All right. I brought in a few things for you. You can put them away at your leisure," says Seto.

"Thank you," I say, "So… um… where's the bathroom in this place?"

Seto points to a door. "That one is yours. I can show you to some of the others when I give you a tour of your new home."

I smile. "Home…"

Seto smiles, and he looks just like you.

I find myself drawn to him, and before I even realize what I'm doing, I'm placing a chaste kiss on the side of Seto's mouth. "Thank you."

Seto blushes, but he doesn't say anything.

I get up and quickly rush into the bathroom. I can't believe I just did that! What the hell was I thinking? It must have been because of that stupid erotic fantasy… stupid dream Yami turning into stupid dream Seto! … But gods, did dream Seto have a skilled mouth! No! Don't think such thoughts! I'm in love with Yami! I don't want to have sex with Seto… It's only lust…

I strip quickly and jump in the shower to wash away my erection and all the proof of my physical attraction to Seto. When I'm done, I wrap a robe around myself, and I head back into my room. I see the bags Seto brought in and my lock box on the nightstand. I move to the bags first and start to unload one onto my bed. My heart swells with joy when I discover Yami's laptop in the pile of my clubbing attire. I spend the rest of the evening putting away my clothes and setting aside the household items for donation or disposal. I stop only long enough to have dinner with Seto and Mokuba.

A soft knock sounds on my door.

"Yeah? Come in," I call.

The door opens, and Mokuba steps inside. "Wow! The room looks nice. The pictures of your sister make it really look lived in!

"Thanks!" I say tossing the chipped wine glasses into one of the trash bags and putting the good ones in the 'donation' bag as designated by the masking tape I put on the outside.

"Well, it's ten o'clock. I just came to wish you a good night," says Mokuba.

"Oh. Is it that late already?" I ask looking around for a clock, "Oh, right. I haven't found my alarm clock yet."

"I'll wake you in the morning then," says Mokuba hesitating a moment before running up and hugging me quickly.

"Good night, Mokuba," I say before watching him run off to go to bed. I continue to sort and put away items until another knock distracts me.

"Yeah? Come in!"

The door opens again, and Seto walks in. "It's eleven, Jou."

"Oh, right. Bedtime. Okay. I'll be in bed in a few minutes. Good night, Seto," I say.

"Remember. I'm next door if you need anything," says Seto walking up to me.

"Okay. Thank you."

Seto pulls me into an embrace and kisses my forehead. "Good night. Sleep well, Jou."

"Same to you, Seto," I say smiling as Seto heads out of my room and closes the door.

"I haven't found my pajamas either," I say with a sigh. I brush my teeth before climbing into bed naked. I close my eyes and relax only to find sleep won't come. After what feels like hours, I sit up and turn on the lamp on the nightstand. I grab the envelope from my lock box and open it. My eyes widen when I see the large wad of cash. I pull out the enclosed letter and open it.

'To my son, Jounouchi Katsuya. By now you've noticed I've sold everything we own. I've emptied my bank accounts as well. I hope this 1,000,000 yen will help you to live well until you get the money from my life insurance policy. I'm sorry to do this to you, Jou, but I'm dying. A kidney transplant could save me, but it could be years before a donor kidney could be found for me. Without my job, I've no health insurance, and I can't leave you with millions in medical expenses. Please, don't think ill of me because I've decided to go with this route. My life insurance company will give the money to your friend's grandfather at the Kame Game Shop… for you. You might want to stay at the Game Shop until then, but after that I have no objections to you moving into your boyfriend's place. I hope Yami takes good care of you. I love you, Jou, and I'm sorry for everything… Love your father…'

I drop the letter and hide my face in my hands as I start to cry. When I finally stop crying, I climb out of bed, leaving the letter and envelope of money where they had landed. I pull on my robe, turn the light off, and head out into the hallway. I knock quietly on Seto's door. When I get no response, I open it and slip inside. I step up to the bed. "Seto?"

"You should be in bed, Jou," says Seto without opening his eyes.

"I can't sleep. Can I stay in here with you?" I ask timidly.

"Fine. Get in," says Seto sliding over.

I drop my robe and climb into bed, resting my body in the warm spot just vacated by my… he's a bit more than a friend, isn't he?

"Good night," says Seto.

"Thank you." What is Seto to me really? Not long ago we were enemies or rivals or whatever. But now, I'm lying naked in a bed beside him, and he says he doesn't own pajamas… so he's naked too. And I had that dream about him last night. I can't deny that we'd be good in bed together… but I have you… but he reminds me of you… Who are you?

Seto wakes up from a wonderful dream of having Jou on his knees sucking him off only to find a hand that isn't his own stroking his erect cock. He turns his head to look over his shoulder at me.

I whisper. "Yami, I can't come. I keep stroking and stroking, but I won't come!"

"Jou," hisses Seto.

"Yami, I can't come. What do I have to do in order to come?"

"You need to wake up, Jou."

"Yami! Help me… Oh, Seto, you'll help me come, won't you? Help me, Seto! What do I do?" I whimper and rub my hard erection against Seto's ass cheeks.

"You need to wake up and then you can come, Jou," says Seto trying to pry my hand from his cock. He groans in pain as my cock presses first against and then through his barrier into his anal passage.

I moan in pleasure. "Oh, yes! Seto, ass fuck me! Stick another finger up my ass. Make me ready for that big cock of yours!"

"Jou!" exclaims Seto loudly.

"Seto… call me 'puppy'… call me 'yours'…"

The last of Seto's resistance fades away with my words. "You are mine, Jou. You are my special dragon puppy, and I love you!"

"Yes! I love you too, Seto… my dark knight… my yami…" I slam my penis against Seto's prostate and jerk him quickly with my hands. "Oh, Seto. You feel so good inside me! I'm going to come!"

"Make me come with you, puppy!"

"Yes!" I exclaim moving faster, "I love my master!" My release shoots into Seto's ass.

"Jou!" exclaims Seto releasing into my hand.

"Seto, I love you…"

"I love you too, Jou," says Seto pulling away so that I slide out of him, "Go to sleep now. I'm going to get a cloth and clean you up. Then I'll join you for a nap. All right?"

"Okay," I say snuggling further into the blankets around me.

Seto slides from the bed and winces as he makes his way into the bathroom. He closes the door and locks it before sinking to the floor. "Dammit, Jou… what were you thinking?"

I wake up in bed alone and feel the stickiness on my hand. I lift the blankets to look down at myself and I see traces of more than one bodily fluid that I recognize, blood and semen. I squirm around to test my muscles, but I don't feel any pain.

The bathroom door opens and Seto walks out still towel-drying his hair.

Wait… He's limping slightly. Oh, Gods! Did I…?

Seto glances my way. "So you're awake now. You can use my bath if you want or you could return to your own room."

"Um… Seto, did I do anything weird last night?" I ask looking down at the bed.

"No. Not weird. Just different. After all it's not everyday you crawl into bed with me," says Seto, "But feel free to do so whenever you need to." He smiles at me. "Although…"

"What?" I feel the color drain from my face. He's going to tell me I raped him, isn't he?

"Were you aware that you talk in your sleep?"

"Oh, Gods! What did I say?"

"It sounded like a sex dream so I decided to leave you and Yami alone," says Seto, "I only heard you ask Yami to make you come."

"Oh, Gods!" I sink into the bed and pull the blankets over myself. I remember that dream. Yami just stood back watching me stroke myself. It was Seto who appeared to fuck me and make me come. He took my dream virginity! And I gave it to him so willingly, so completely, and it was the best orgasm of my life!

"I'm going to my home office. I'll see you downstairs for breakfast," says Seto.

"Okay," I mumble. I wait for the sound of the door closing before I get out of bed and walk naked into the bathroom. "Is it cheating if you only dream it? Maybe it means I don't love Yami as much as I think I do… I need to talk to Yugi…"

"The funeral's tomorrow. I think you two should go shopping for something to wear," says Seto once we're finished breakfast, "You don't mind skipping school today, do you, Mokuba?"

"Not at all, I'm ahead anyway," says Mokuba, "Would you like to go shopping, Jou?"

"Okay, I guess," I say.

"Feel free to pick up anything else you might want as well," says Seto passing me his credit card, "I'll let you carry this. If I give it to Mokuba, he'll come home with a toy shop or two."

"Hey! I only bought the toy store that one time! And since I gave it back it's been doing much better financially!" exclaims Mokuba.

Seto sighs. "That's because you aren't charging them rent on that building you now own."

Mokuba shrugs. "Whatever…"

"I'm heading to the office. Take the limo," says Seto standing up. "If you want, Jou, your friends could spend the night here and go to the funeral with us tomorrow."

I smile at Seto. "Thank you…"

Seto heads out.

"Is Seto limping?" asks Mokuba.

"You noticed too? I think he's trying to hide it," I say.

"He normally tries to hide his injuries," says Mokuba, "He can't let anyone know he's weaker than normal. I wonder what happened though."

"Hmm…"

Mokuba eyes me warily for a moment. "Let's play a video-game before we go shopping!"

Seto pulls up outside the Kame Game Shop and sees Yugi sweeping the sidewalk. He climbs out of his car. "Hey, Yugi!"

Yugi looks up and smiles when he sees Seto. "Morning!"

"Are you almost done? I'll give you a ride," says Seto.

"Yeah. Just give me a minute!" exclaims Yugi. He finishes sweeping quickly and puts the broom away inside the shop. He grabs his bag of books and heads out to climb into Seto's car with him. "So… Jou says he's living with you now. How's that going?"

"We're grabbing Ryou and skipping school," says Seto throwing the car into gear and taking off.

"That bad, huh?" asks Yugi with a sigh. "Sorry…"

"I'll explain once we have Ryou up in my office," says Seto.

Yugi's eyes widen. "Sure."

Seto stops the car right outside Ryou's apartment building just as Ryou's stepping out the door. "Get in."

Ryou opens the back door and slides in. "Good morning, all."

"Hi, Ryou," says Yugi, "We're skipping school today."

"Oh," says Ryou as the car starts to move towards the Kaiba Corp building, "What happened between you and Jou, Seto?"

"We'll talk in my office," says Seto, "The funeral for Jou's father is tomorrow. He's going shopping with Mokuba for some clothes to wear."

The rest of the trip to the building and up to Seto's office is done in silence.

Seto closes and locks the door.

"Okay. What happened? Why are you limping?" asks Yugi.

"Did you have sex with Jou?" asks Ryou.

"Have either of you had a sleepover with Jou?" asks Seto moving to sit on the sofa along one wall.

Ryou shakes his head. "No!"

"Jou doesn't like having sleepovers," says Yugi.

"He couldn't sleep last night so he asked if he could sleep with me," says Seto, "and I agreed. He crawled into bed naked and fell asleep. I had no intention of molesting him in his sleep, but I woke up with him rubbing me." He blushes. "I tried to wake him but he was sleep talking…"

Both Ryou and Yugi stare at Seto with wide eyes.

"You've been limping!" exclaims Yugi.

"Jou took you while he slept!" exclaims Ryou.

Seto nods.

"That must have been one good dream between him and Yami," says Yugi.

"That's the thing though…"

Ryou kneels down on the floor in front of Seto and takes the brunet's hands. "What happened, Seto? We can't decide what to do next if we don't know what happened…"

"If he'd been calling out for Yami the entire time, I think I could have resisted him," explains Seto, "but it sounded like Yami wouldn't help him. And then suddenly he was calling out my name and begging me to help him. Apparently dream-me decided to help. He even asked me to call him 'my puppy'!"

Yugi sits down beside Seto. "He's turning your derogatory nickname for him into a pet name."

"He even said he loved me… that he loved Seto, but in the very same breath he called me 'his dark knight' and Yami," says Seto.

"Oh dear!" exclaims Ryou, and at the same time Yugi says, "Oh, my!"

"Jou knows who Yami really is," says Ryou.

Although it might only be subconsciously," adds Yugi, "Go on. What else happened?"

"After he finished, I told him to sleep, and I'd clean him up before joining him in bed," says Seto, "Then I got out of bed to take a shower. He was awake when I came out. I think he suspects what he did. He questioned me vaguely, and I told him that I left the bed once he started his dream with Yami. I don't want to guilt trip him."

"If Jou asks you if he had sex with you, don't lie to him," says Yugi, "Tell him the truth… that he was asleep and you were half-asleep so you thought it was a dream."

Seto nods.

"Jou would never forgive you for lying blatantly to his face," explains Yugi.

"Yugi, you need to talk to Jou and see if he remembers any of this," says Ryou, "and find out what happened in his dream. Seto, are you two going clubbing this weekend?"

"We planned to, but he doesn't feel like it under the circumstances," says Seto, "So he's sending Seto out with a note for Yami to explain the situation to him. I told Jou that all his friends could spend the night at the mansion, and we'd all travel to the funeral together."

"If he doesn't invite us over, and if he remembers last night at all, he won't… then I think Yami should go by the mansion and just change the date into a movie or cuddling or something," says Ryou.

"Hadn't you planned to walk around the park and have dinner there?" asks Yugi.

"Yes."

"That would be perfect!" exclaims Ryou.

"Invite Jou to join you for an all night walk around the park," says Yugi smiling, "When you get tired, sit. There's food stands for when you get hungry and dark places for cuddling and making out!"

"And you can talk and really get to know each other!" exclaims Ryou grinning as well.

"Tonight could prove to be quite interesting then," says Seto smirking, "and with a bit of luck, after the Duel Monster's Expo, Jou will be sleeping in my bed on a more permanent basis."

"And to think, Jou didn't want me scheming to get you two together!" exclaims Ryou, "But he'll be happy if we do!"
