Anyhow enough of that, enjoy the chapter^^

---Story---

Kaiba woke up with a groan holding a hand to his head, glancing around the quiet bathroom trying to regain his sight. After a few seconds of his eyesight adjusting he stood up and calmly walked out of the bathroom in search of Seraphis as well as his unsafe puppy.

On the other side of school Jou was sat on the roof trying to figure out where Seraphis had come from and why he didn't remember anything about him, not the time they met, how they got together or anything. Why was that? It wasn't right. His thoughts were stopped suddenly as Seraphis called him; he walked down the stairs from the roof and walked along the corridor until he came to Seraphis who was sat on a bench waiting for him. Jou sat down next to him and looked at Seraphis for a few minutes before he asked "why can't I remember anything about you or us?"

Seraphis didn't answer just kissed Jou to shut him up with his questioning, but to Seraphis's surprise Jou pushed against his chest and pulled away from the kiss shocking Seraphis. Jou panted for a few minutes before saying "Stop it" and then asking "I don't know you, do I?"

Seraphis growled and pushed Jou away standing up quickly but unfortunately for Jou he ended up falling off of the bench and banging his head on the ground, Jou sat up and then yelled out of pain but gasped as the memories of the day before came back to him. He looked at Seraphis and his eyes widened before he started to stutter out "you... you...you" Jou closed his mouth and growled in frustration before trying to speak again "You're...you're... Lucifer"

"Don't call me that here" Seraphis growled leaning over Jou, glaring into honey eyes.

"What do you want? What's your aim in all this?" Jou asked, thoroughly confused.

"You don't need to know" Seraphis answered before walking off and leaving Jou sat on the bench, confused out of his mind.

The rest of the day passed by quickly, Jou decided to return to his classes but both Seraphis and Kaiba were missing for the rest of the day. Unknown to Jou or anyone, Kaiba had confronted Seraphis again on the school roof but had been knocked cold and taken away to hell with Seraphis.

School ended quickly and the students piled out of school, Jou walked out the school with his friends who were busy questioning him about Seraphis, but only gave cryptic answers. How was he meant to tell his friends that his 'boyfriend' wasn't really his boyfriend but instead the 'devil'?

They walked together stopping at everyone's homes, they reached Yugi's first and then Honda's but Otogi went with Honda much to Jou's and Anzu's amusement, Anzu's house was second to last and Jou walked to his home by himself, he walked up the stairs and into his father's apartment ignoring all the abuse his father fired at him and walking straight into his bedroom. As soon as he arrived in his room he laid down on his bed and stared at the ceiling thinking back on the weird day he had had. Being Seraphis's boyfriend, doing anything and everything Seraphis said due to being under his control and of course the argument with Kaiba. He frowned as he thought of Kaiba, both Kaiba and Seraphis hadn't been in classes for the rest of the afternoon.

Jou jumped up from his bed and walked quickly to the living room to check if his dad was passed out from the alcohol, luck was on his side as he watched his dad snoring his head off. Sighing in relief Jou snuck over to the phone sat on the table near the sofa, he gulped and picked the phone up being extra careful to keep quiet, if his father woke up and saw him using the phone he would get hell.

Jou quickly dialled Mokuba, after a few rings Mokuba picked up, after hearing a "who's this?" from Mokuba's side, Jou whispered in a rush "Mokuba, its Jou. Has Kaiba been home yet?"

Jou paled as Mokuba answered with the dreaded "No he hasn't" and then carried onto say "he isn't at KaibaCorp either. Jou do you know anything?"

Jou gulped before he started to reply but it was cut short as his dad woke up and shouted "you little shit, how dare you use that phone" Jou dropped the phone on the floor in shock and ducked quickly as his father tried landing a punch. Whilst Jou's father was trying to keep balanced Jou quickly hung up the phone, he didn't need Mokuba knowing what was going on. He placed the phone back onto the table and ran to his room slamming the door and shoving the desk against it, hopefully it would slow his dad down whilst he climbed down the fire escape so he could get away from his angered father.

"Boy open this fucking door" Jou's father boomed banging on the door.

Jou climbed out of his window and as quick as he could he started climbing down the fire escape, once he reached the bottom he ran as fast as he could in the direction of the Kaiba mansion. Whilst Jou was on his way to the Kaiba mansion, Jou's father had eventually got into Jou's room, angered even more that his son had escaped his clutches, his anger died down slightly as he spotted the picture that had fallen from the desk onto the floor, of him, Jou, Shizuka and his divorced wife. A new feeling spread throughout him when he realised what he had been doing to his only son. 'Guilt'

After a ten minute run and fifteen minute walk Jou arrived at the Kaiba mansion, he buzzed at the gate and Mokuba let him in, he walked up to the door which was held open by Mokuba. Jou walked in gawking at the spacious mansion. Mokuba chuckled at the look of pure awe that was written all over Jou's face before remembering the conversation they had had earlier.

"Jou do you know where my big brother is?" Mokuba asked.

Jou blinked at the smaller boy before he sighed and then frowned when he replied "I may have an idea"
