Chapter 5
Atemu and Kaiba finished bringing in all the stuff Atemu bought, setting it on the counter in the kitchen. Atemu got busy putting all the stuff away after he sent Kaiba back to go and sit in the living room.
A few minutes later Atemu walked out and joined Kaiba and Yami in the living room, plopping down on the couch next to Yami.
"So, anything in particular you two want me to make for dinner?" Atemu asked.
Kaiba looked at him funny for a second and asked, "You cook?"
Atemu blushed slightly in embarrassment. Yami wrapped an arm around his shoulders and proudly declared, "Yup, Atemu cooks alright and he's very good at it too. But, that's a secret of his…so don't go spreading it around."
"Really." Kaiba said.
"So, what do you guys want to eat?" Atemu asked shyly.
Yami got a thoughtful look on his face for a moment before he asked, "Did you buy the stuff to make curry and rice? You know how much I love your curry and rice."
"Yeah, I bought the stuff to make it. Is curry and rice okay with you Kaiba?" Atemu asked.
"Hn." Kaiba replied, it didn't really matter to him what they had to eat. He had been planning on taking Atemu out to dinner in the hopes of using the time they were going to be living together to get closer…but since his romantic dinner idea was shot he didn't really care what they decided.
Atemu got up and headed into the kitchen to begin cooking. Kaiba turned to Yami and asked, "Since when did Atemu learn how to cook? And why did he bother even learning since I know his father has two chefs that work in his house?"
Yam chuckled slightly, "Atemu learned to cook about two years ago. He taught himself how to cook actually. It started one day when we were hanging out at my house by ourselves…we'd been playing games all afternoon and we got hungry. My grandpa was out of town so we were on our own. Atemu thought about ordering some take out…until he had realized he left his wallet at home. I remember he got this funny look on his face before he wandered down into the kitchen since he figured it wouldn't be too hard to make something to eat. He dug through my late grandmothers old recipes and found something that he thought was simple to make and he started following the directions and when he was done we ate it and it was really good. Atemu realized that he really enjoyed cooking and he decided to keep doing it. He bought some cook books that he hides under his bed at home. He also, late a night watches cooking shows on TV so he can learn more. He loves experimenting with different things so he used to come over to my house and cook whatever it was he wanted to try." Yami said, he then glared slightly at Kaiba, "Don't you go giving him a hard time about that."
"I won't. It just surprised me that's all." Kaiba said, though he had to fight to get rid of the mental image of Atemu wearing a short dress and an apron cooking for him and once he was done…he and Atemu ended up doing a different type of cooking. Kaiba smirked slightly at the thought. Hmm, that might be something to try once we are married. Wonder how hard it'd be to get him in a dress?
Yami smacked Kaiba with a throw pillow, "Get your mind out of the gutter."
"How in the world would you know…" Kaiba began to ask.
Yami smirked and just pointed at Kaiba's lap…apparently he'd enjoyed his thoughts more than he realized he had.
"You might want to go and take care of that Kaiba." Yami suggested with a laugh.
Kaiba scowled at him but otherwise got up and went into the bathroom and closed the door. Once he was in the bathroom the glanced down at the bulge that could be seen in his pants. He was absolutely disgusted that he had reacted like that. He wanted to earn Atemu's trust and affection, not make Atemu believe he wanted sex with him and nothing more. Guess I'm lucky that it was just Yami who saw that and not Atemu. Kaiba thought before he unbuttoned his pants and tugged out his partially hardened member.
Kaiba's eyes slid shut once he fisted his penis. He imagined that it actually Atemu's hand wrapped around him, sliding up and down, squeezing it. In his imagination Atemu then released his grip on Kaiba's penis and dropped down to his knees, his mouth mere inches away. He teasingly blew warm air over the sensitive skin. Kaiba groaned.
Atemu smirked and opened his mouth slightly and began to take Kaiba in…
"Kaiba are you alright in there?" Atemu suddenly asked while knocking on the bathroom door.
Shit. Kaiba thought. "Yeah Atemu I'm fine." Kaiba replied, thoroughly impressed that he was able to keep his voice sounding normal.
"Are you sure because you've been making a lot of noises? I thought something was wrong." Atemu said, and he sounded genuinely concerned.
Kaiba could hear Yami laughing in the background. "Oh, he was making noises alright Atemu but not because…"
That little shit. Kaiba thought quickly doing back up his pants and marching out of the bathroom before Yami could say anything.
Atemu glanced at Kaiba for a moment once he'd walked out and then back at Yami who was doubled over laughing his ass off.
"What's so funny Yami?" Atemu asked.
Yami gulped in some air before he motioned for Atemu to come closer, completely ignoring the death glare Kaiba was sending at him. Atemu walked over to Yami who whispered something in his ear.
Atemu turned and looked back at Kaiba, then down slightly and his eyes widened in realization. "Oh. Uh, I'll leave you to uh…to take care of that. Sorry for disturbing you." Atemu said which sent Yami into another laughing fit…which he cut off abruptly when it became too painful to laugh anymore.
Atemu just shook his head and headed back into the kitchen. Kaiba followed him.
"Look, Atemu I can explain." Kaiba said.
Atemu paused for a moment before he said, "It's really not that big a deal Kaiba. Again, I'm sorry I bothered you."
Atemu then turned to look at Kaiba, "I'm not mad that you got aroused…it happens, it's a natural reaction of the body to certain stimuli. Yami said that happened after he told you about how I learned to cook…he said that your mind went to gutter. Again, you're a teenager Kaiba, these things happen. The only reason I'd have a problem with it would be if you expected me to do something about it." Atemu said.
"Alright, I just wanted to make sure I didn't upset you." Kaiba replied.
Atemu laughed, "Trust me Kaiba if you'd made me mad you'd know it. Now, go on take care of your problem."
Kaiba nodded before he walked back out of the kitchen and through the living room where Yami was lounging on the couch. Kaiba scowled at him, "You're lucky you're already injured otherwise I'd kick your ass for the stunt you just pulled." Kaiba said.
Yami snorted before he replied, "Do you realize how hard it is to take you remotely seriously when you have a huge bulge in your pants? Why don't you go and take care of it and then come back and threaten me…you'll come across as a lot more intimidating."
Kaiba scowled before he marched back into the bathroom and slammed the door shut. He quickly unzipped his pants and tugged his penis back out tightly fisting it, once again focusing his mind of the image of Atemu kneeling before him, his mouth open as he began to take him in very slowly, teasingly.
Kaiba groaned at the thought of Atemu slowly tracing around his penis with his tongue before he got this mischievous look in his eyes and he laughed, sending vibrations straight through Kaiba's dick. It was too much and Kaiba came with a cry, "ATEMU!"
Kaiba then quickly washed his hand and grabbed a dish towel and cleaned himself up before redoing his pants and exiting the room.
Atemu was sitting on the couch next to Yami, blushing horribly while Yami was chuckling.
"What's so damn funny Yami?" Kaiba snapped.
"Well, for one you are extremely vocal…but I was more laughing at how embarrassed Atemu was listening to you, oh Atemu yeah. Right there. Groan, damn it Atemu you're so fucking hot. Just like that. Mmmm, harder Atemu. ATEMU! I have never seen him blush this much, it's absolutely hilarious." Yami said, trailing off into yet another fit of laughter.
"Alright, that's enough you two can we please just drop it." Atemu said.
Yami was still chuckling but he nodded. Atemu then stood up and said, "Dinners ready so come and get it before it gets cold."
Yami once again started laughing before he grabbed Atemu's shoulder and whispered, "I'm sure Kaiba wants to Cum alright…and he certainly wouldn't have a problem cumming with you."
Atemu glared at Yami for a second before playfully smacking him, "That's enough out of you, you pervert."
"Fine, fine." Yami said holding up his hands in surrender. "You win no more mentions of sex."
"Thank you." Atemu said before he once again headed back into the kitchen.
Dinner was rather quiet; Kaiba spent most of the meal glaring at Yami, who was purposely ignoring him though Atemu could see a bit of a smirk on Yami's face. He enjoyed riling Kaiba up though why that was Atemu had no idea.
After dinner was done and Atemu washed up all the dishes the three sat in the living room.
"So, about sleeping arrangements." Yami suddenly said.
"Oh, yeah. Well, Yami you are getting the bed since you need to sleep comfortably. I'll share with you since I want to be able to check on you through the night. Kaiba, you get the couch." Atemu said.
"Wait a minute…you and Yami are going to sleep together. I don't think so Atemu, if anyone is sharing a bed with you it should be me." Kaiba said.
Atemu sighed, "Kaiba, can you please just trust me? I swear that I am not going to do anything."
"Besides," Yami piped up, "Your right in the next room, its not like we could break in the bed and you NOT hear us."
Kaiba glared at Yami for a moment before he glanced back at Atemu. "Fine. Whatever. Go ahead and sleep with him if that's what you want to do."
"Thank you." Atemu said before he stood up and stretched, "well, I don't know about the rest of you but today has been quite a long day so I'm going to be going to bed."
Atemu then looked over at Kaiba before he sighed and walked over to him and gave him a light kiss on the cheek and whispered, "I swear to you on all that is holy I will not betray you. All I want is for you to show me that you trust me Seto."
Kaiba nodded; if that was what Atemu wanted him to do he would do it. He wouldn't like it but he'd do it.
Yami followed Atemu back into the bedroom and closed the door behind him.
"You know you didn't need to close the door Yami." Atemu said while he pulled off his shirt and tossed it aside and began undoing his pants.
"I know that Atemu, but I prefer to sleep with the door closed. Also, I'd rather not risk Prince Charming deciding he wanted a peepshow." Yami replied slowly pulling off his shirt.
"That is true." Atemu said tossing his jeans aside before he sank down on the bed. Atemu only slept in boxers, just like Yami did. Once Yami had also stripped down he also plopped down on the bed.
"You want me to change you bandages now Yami?" Atemu asked.
Yami nodded, "You might as well." Yami said.
Atemu nodded before he got up and got fresh bandages and began to slowly change Yami's dressing one at a time. Once he was done he got back up and put the bandages away and threw away the old ones.
The two then crawled into bed, after Atemu flicked off the light.
"You know Yami; we both have a really twisted sense of honor. Don't you agree?" Atemu suddenly asked.
Yami chuckled, "I do Atemu. I feel compelled to remain true to the man I married regardless of how much I hate him and I wish him dead. You also feel compelled to show Kaiba the same fidelity regardless of the fact that you don't love him."
"I know, how messed up is that?" Atemu asked with a laugh.
Yami sighed, "You know Até, I'm going to really need your help a lot for the next probably year. I know you have your own problems but just before you got there this morning the doctor gave me some interesting news…and thanks to the way I was raised I've made my decision."
"What are you talking about?" Atemu asked.
Yami sighed once again, "My bastard of a husband managed to knock me up somehow and even more surprisingly didn't kill the kid last night. But I can't risk him killing it next time…I can't go back until after it's born." Yami said.
Atemu was quiet for several seconds before he wrapped his arms around Yami, pulling him close. "You don't even have to ask Yami. I'm here for you no matter what. I swear I'll keep you safe."
"I know Atemu, I know you will. I just, I honestly have no idea what I'm going to do. I mean that house is no place to raise a kid. And as much as I hate the idea of giving the child up…I'd rather it be safe." Yami said.
Atemu sighed, "You know Yami. We can get you out of that house for good. You just need to report all the shit that's been happening to you and that bastard will be arrested. Your grandpa can testify. I can doctors that have seen you since that happened can testify. He'll go to jail and you'll never have to see or hear from him again." Atemu said.
Yami smiled slightly, "That's true…but you know what Atemu?" Yami asked.
"What's that Yami?"
"No matter what happens I'll never be completely free of him. He's taken so much from me; put me through so much that I'll never be the same again. I doubt I can even date anyone and not expect them to pull the same kind of shit he did. It's sad but true." Yami said.
Atemu could feel tears dripping on his shoulders. "Akefia may be a bastard who deserves to burn in hell for the rest of eternity but it doesn't mean you can never find happiness Yami. Believe me, you will eventually. You'll find someone who will treat you right and be able to provide a home for not only you but also your child. However, before we even begin to worry about that we need to get him locked up." Atemu said.
"Alright." Yami said.
Atemu tightened his grip around Yami ever so slightly. He absolutely hated everything that Yami had been forced to endure but he swore right now that he would make sure that Yami found happiness, wherever that may be.
Atemu sighed before he released his hold on Yami and flopped back on his back. Yami had had such a trying few days he'd fallen asleep in Atemu's arms. This wasn't the first time he had. Yami had once told him that the reason he fell asleep so easily when Atemu was there was because he knew without a doubt he was safe.
Atemu rested his arm over his eyes while he lost himself in his thoughts. When he thought about everything his friend was going through his problem seemed absolutely pathetic. So what he was being forced to marry…at least he wasn't being tortured.
With another sigh Atemu drifted off to sleep.
Yami awoke first the next morning and smiled slightly at the sight of Atemu sleeping so soundly. He was glad to see that Atemu was sleeping since he could tell that Atemu hadn't slept well for several days, not that he'd ever complained about it. He just appeared extremely worn down.
While Yami watched his friend sleep he suddenly got an excellent idea. He crawled out of bed and got dressed before he walked out into the living room to see Kaiba laying on the couch staring at the ceiling.
"Morning Kaiba." Yami greeted.
Kaiba glared at him but said nothing in response.
Yami sat down on the arm of the couch and looked at Kaiba for a few moments before he decided to speak up. "Kaiba, can you answer something for me honestly? No bullshit, just the truth."
Kaiba sighed and rolled his eyes, "That would depend entirely what it is you want to know."
"Do you really honestly care about Atemu or are you really just trying to use him. I need to know." Yami said.
"Oh for gods sakes. How many times do I have to fucking say it? Yes, I really genuinely care about Atemu. I have strong feelings for him. Does that answer your fucking question?" Kaiba snapped.
"No need to get so defensive. I was just asking. And if that is really the case then I have something I want to tell you." Yami said.
Kaiba sighed, "And what's that Yami?"
Yami smiled slightly, "Well, actually I have a couple of things I can tell you. One of which is the museum recently acquired a traveling exhibit on ancient games. Another thing is that Atemu's favorite restaurant is Amun's Banquet Hall. And finally, Atemu's favorite thing to do after a nice date is to go for a walk through the park."
Kaiba's eyes narrowed slightly, "And why are you telling me this Yami?" Kaiba asked.
"Because if you were telling me the truth when you said that you really care about Atemu and you want to make him happy then you should know some things he'd like to do. Besides Atemu deserves to go out and have a good time and since you're his fiancé I figured you wouldn't mind taking him out. And while you two are out on your date I suggest you really get to know the real Atemu, not the Atemu that you see at dinner parties or when his father's around. I was just giving you an opportunity. No one ever said you had to take my advice." Yami said before he stood up and walked out of the room leaving Kaiba to think.
Kaiba watched Yami walk out of the room before he glanced back at the ceiling. Okay, I understand the restaurant and the walking in the park…but why the hell did Yami mention a museum exhibit? Kaiba thought.
He sighed before he sat up and stretched. He had to admit that Yami probably knew what he called the real Atemu better than he did. And who knows maybe Yami was genuinely trying to help him and Atemu. And if that is the case then he'd take Yami's advice. He just hoped that Yami was right.
Atemu woke up in bed alone. He stretched out and glanced over at the clock on the nightstand and saw that it was 930 am. Atemu rolled out of bed and got dressed before he wandered out into the living room where he saw Yami sitting on the couch munching on a Poptart.
"Where's Kaiba?" Atemu asked.
"Prince Charming left at around nine to go and set some things up. And before you ask, yes I know what he went to do and no I am not telling you." Yami said.
Atemu glared at Yami slightly before he decided it was pointless and headed into the kitchen to snag some breakfast.
Atemu had just finished his bowl of cereal when Kaiba came back. Atemu was surprised to see Kaiba had a flower with him…more specifically a blue lotus blossom. Which was the flower Atemu had suggested be used in their wedding.
Kaiba smiled at him slightly before he held out the flower for Atemu to take. Atemu slowly held out his hand and accepted the flower intensely studying it. Lotus blossoms were his late mother's favorite flower. When she'd been alive she'd always made a point to have them growing in their garden. Atemu remembered how he used to help her take care of those flowers…and it was memories like that which made this flower Atemu's favorite.
"Thank you Kaiba, but you do realize I'm not a girl no matter what my father tells you." Atemu said.
Kaiba smirked slightly, "Believe me, I know you aren't since I doubt a girl would be anywhere near as hard to please as you are. But that doesn't mean I'm not going to make a genuine effort. You want me to win your heart. Fine, I'll do it the old fashion way. Starting right now." Kaiba said.
"The old fashion way?" Atemu asked with a laugh before he went to go and find a vase to put the flower. "I certainly hope that by the old fashion way you don't hope to buy my heart because I can already tell you that won't happen." Atemu said.
"Oh I know that won't work…but it doesn't mean I can't throw some money around while I romance you over dinner and attempt to impress you by winning pointless carnival games." Kaiba said with a smirk.
Atemu snorted, "You at a carnival now that would be a sight to see. Well, I can't say it'll work but if that's what you want to do then by all means go right ahead." Atemu said.
"I plan to Atemu, and I'm going to start tonight." Kaiba said before he turned and walked out of the room leaving a confused and slightly stunned Atemu in the kitchen.
