Chapter Fourteen : Possessive Grips.
"What the hell is wrong with you! Let go of me!" snatching his wrist away from Atemu's tight grip. Yugi rubbed the reddened skin gently, he didn't doubt that it would be a bruise there later.
Yugi couldn't believe the behavior that Atemu had displayed earlier, sure he had expected Atemu to be teasing towards him when the older man spotted him together with Rebecca.
Instead, Atemu had grabbed Yugi by the arm, glaring coldly enough at Rebecca to freeze the young girls blood and dragged him outside.
The emotions that flashed through Atemu's crimson eyes sent shivers down his spine, he didn't like how animalistic and possessive Atemu looked.
"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you Yugi? Who was that girl?"
Still holding onto his wrist, Yugi ignored Atemu's' question and headed for the car that was parked a few feet away.
Soon enough, he heard footsteps against the gravel of the parking lot and Atemu's' demanding and hard voice.
"Yugi-"
"Enough." turning on his heel, Yugi pinned Atemu with a heated stare. "Can we please talk about this when we get home? You're causing a scene."
They had indeed gained quite the audience, including Rebecca who had followed them outside, many of the female students were staring at them confused while the males were openly leering or smirking.
"Fine we'll talk about this once we're home, that I promise."
Sighing heavily, Yugi slipped into the front seat and slammed the door shut behind him, turning his face away when Atemu slipped into the drivers side.
This day could not get any worse.
"It is good to be home again isn't it?"
"Hell no, why would I want to stare at Atemu's ugly face again. How long do you we have to be here?"
"I want to see Yugi and visit Grandfather Solomon's grave. It's the least I could do since we missed the funeral…."
"Bah, the old man never liked me much anyways…"
"Bakura! You shouldn't speak ill of the dead, you know better!"
Bakura's' thin lips curled into a smirk. "Just because I know better doesn't mean that I'll be good. You should now that by now Ryou."
Ryou blushed heavily at the suggestive comment. "Nevertheless, please be respectful when we go alright?"
Ryou had met Bakura during his final year of high school, the older man had introduced himself as simply as Bakura and arrogantly stated that he was president of the Egyptian division of Ishigami Corp and had the nerve to demand that Ryou go out with him because he had the money and prestige.
Ryou wasn't impressed in the least bit. He quickly turned Bakura down and thought that would be the end of it, he would never see Bakura or his cocky attitude again.
Oh how dreadfully wrong he was.
Bakura had shown up at his then job, a pizzeria, a few days later and demanded that he go out with him. In front of all his co-workers no less!
Embarrassed and angry, Ryou had sharply turned Bakura down and had asked the older man to leave the premises.
When he showed up for worked the very next day, he had found out that Bakura had bought the entire chain of pizzerias in all of Domino.
That arrogant and disrespectful man had become his boss overnight!
Every. Single. Day. Bakura had asked him out, the man had full rights to come in when he pleased since he owned the place.
Ryou, by then, was out of patience and his sanity was degrading finally said yes as long as Bakura never came into the pizzeria frequently.
The date went without a hitch, Bakura had taken him to one of the most expensive restaurants in the city. Ryou had admitted after the date was done, that Bakura was a charming man that was passionate about his work.
A second date had turned into a third then a fourth and a fifth until Bakura had asked him to become his lover.
Ryou readily agreed.
Of course his friends and Bakuras' advisors had advised against their relationship. The both of them had ignored the warnings and had slowly developed a playful and loving relationship.
It wasn't until that Bakura had to return to Egypt that their relationship had taken a dramatic turn. Ryou knew that long distance relationships never truly lasted, and planned to break up with Bakura when he saw him next.
He never got the chance to say those heart-breaking words, at the very airport they were now standing in, Bakura had dropped down on one knee and asked him to marry him.
Ryou couldn't resist the temptation of saying yes.
"I'll be good." Bakura spoke up, bringing him back to the present. "As long as Atemu doesn't get in my face."
Ryou reached over and planted a kiss on the older mans cheek. "That's all I ask."
Honda's nose wrinkled at the stained silk sheets, slipping out of the large bed, he slipped on his underwear and pants before grabbing the sheets and tossing them into the laundry basket.
It had been three long and exciting months of amazing sex and great dinners, but Honda found himself getting more and more dissatisfied with his relationship with Ryuuji Otogi.
He wanted something more.
Honda couldn't just go up to Otogi and blurt out that he wanted a more stable relationship, that wasn't an option and the other would most likely end the relationship on the spot. He learned that Ryuuji Otogi was a man of flight, when things got to heavy, he bailed.
"You don't have to do that Honda, the maids clean up." Otogi spoke from the open bathroom door.
Honda shrugged and slipped on his black t-shirt. "I rather do it myself you know? I wouldn't want them to pick up bed sheets with that all over it."
"They're used to it."
Honda forced down a flinch at the blunt statement, he knew that Otogi held some sort of sick pride of sleeping with so many men and women.
"Don't say such things." Honda muttered loud enough for the other to hear. "Think about them for once-"
"I do." Otogi cut in walking towards him and placing a soft kiss against his neck. "The walls are soundproof."
Honda groaned and rubbed his temples, he could feel a headache coming on. "That's not what I meant and you know it, I have to get going anyways."
"Where?"
"Home." Honda spat out, zipping his pants and straightening his hair, he would have to shower thoroughly when he got back, he felt disgusting.
"You usually stay with me if you don't have classes, do you have someone else?"
"No! how dare you ask me that!"
Otogi scowled and crossed his arms over his naked chest. "How could I not? You've been acting like you're bored with me lately. Why is that? Am I really dissatisfying you in the bedroom?"
Instead of the anger he usually felt at being provoked, Honda felt an overwhelming sadness and pity over take him.
He felt pity for Otogi.
Honda placed his hands on Otogi's' bare shoulders and reached up to give the other a kiss on the cheek. "It's not that at all Otogi-kun, it's just classes are beginning to pick up and I'm stressed out is all. I'm not cheating on you or anything."
Otogi's shoulders sagged under his grip. "I know, and I'm sorry for saying that, but I feel like you're unsatisfied with me. Have I done something wrong?"
"No." Yes, everything is wrong with this relationship. "You've done nothing wrong."
"If-if you say so." Otogi sounded hesitant and a bit hurt and Honda's heart gave a painful twist at that. "I'll give you a ride home?"
"Sure, sure thing."
"Rebecca Hawkins? She is related to Professor Hawkins?"
They were half way home and Yugi had thoroughly explained the scene that Atemu stepped in on. He didn't know where that possessiveness came from, but he didn't want to see it again.
"How does she know about us is what I am curious about. We have been pretty discreet about this thus far. You haven't told anyone have you?"
"Of course not." Yugi snorted. "Who do I have to tell? You told Mai and I know she doesn't have a big mouth so who?"
Atemu's lips thinned. "I don't know, but I'll find out soon enough."
Yugi shrugged and looked out to window and felt relieved when he spotted the house not to far away, he narrowed his eyes when he spotted Rebecca and a slender woman beside her.
"What the hell…?" he heard Atemu muttered beside him.
"Atemu?" Yugi asked slowly. "I know that's Rebecca, but who is that woman standing beside her?"
"That's Vivian Wong." the name was spat out like a curse and Yugi found himself somewhat amused at that.
"Sounds like you don't like her, what did she do to you?"
"I'll explain later. Does Rebecca know Vivian?"
Yugi shrugged. "How should I know? I just met her today, maybe Vivian was keeping tabs on you and teamed up with that twelve year old psychotic genius."
"You shouldn't call other people names like that little one."
Yugi eyebrows shot up. "Looks who talking! I can only imagine the insulting things you were thinking of the both of them just now."
Atemu opened his mouth to reply only to be interrupted by the tapping on the glass.
"Hello?" Vivian pressed her face against the window. "Are the two of you going to stay in there all night? You wouldn't leave two beautiful ladies out in this chilly weather would you?"
"I'll kiss you on the mouth if you drive off right now." Yugi deadpanned.
"Really?" Atemu sounded too interested for Yugi's taste. "a chaste or full tongue?"
"Full tongue."
Atemu eagerly reached over and started the engine, all the while wearing a full-toothed grin.
"If you don't shut off this car this instant I'm going to set your house on fire!" Vivian roared, pounding her manicured hands on the window.
"This isn't your only house is it?" Yugi asked, ignoring the fact that they would be the victims of arson in a few minutes.
Atemu chuckled. "Of course not. I have one on the other side of the city and in three more cities in Japan."
"I'll tell the press I'm pregnant!" Vivian screeched, "And that it's yours and Yugi's!"
"How in the hell would that work?" Yugi questioned dryly. "We can't both be the father."
"She's an incredibly good actor." Atemu sighed and turned off the engine. "Trust me Yugi, she'll make it work."
"What are you doing? Why did you shut off the car!"
"We're getting out little one." Atemu replied with a bitter smirk. "I'll be damned if I'm plastered on every magazine cover stating that I'm the father of Vivian Wong's child."
