Chapter 5

DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own Yugioh or anything else that might be mentioned in this fan fiction. I only own the original characters that will either never be shown again or only cameo in another chapter because I don't feel like making a new character. Anyway, enjoy the fanfics. Also the horror movie I talked about in the last chapter is a real movie from the 1950s or 1960s, but I don't know if it really costs that much or is really that rare. I just found it off the internet at random.

And on another note, I've been watching Soul Eater recently and have fallen in love with it. So at one point Yuugi says something that reminds me of Crona from Soul Eater so if you can spot it you get an imaginary cookie!

The Story begins here

Kaiba's eyes widened. Jounouchi liked her that much? What was she supposed to say? Would he tell everyone at the party? Would he get depressed if she said no? Wait, since when had she cared about the blonde's feelings? She had almost told him who she really was and covered it up by using her original name! Should she tell him she's really Seto Kaiba so that he'll just think it's creepy and forget about it?

She sighed and began with her explanation, "Bon- I mean- Jounouchi, I need to tell you something. It's the truth about me and Seto Kaiba."

Jou hid his eyes from Kaiba, backed away from her a little bit and chuckled, "I knew something was going on. Don't worry; I already had my suspicion so you don't have to say it. It'll just make me feel worse about all this."

Kaiba's eyes widened again, "You mean you already know?"

"Yeah, I do," Jou looked up, his eyes closed while giving her a forced grin, "You're going out with Kaiba and don't want to cheat on him with me while he's away. It's alright. I understand that you don't want to cheat on him. I just wish that I had been able to get you for myself. I mean Kaiba's got everything he could ever ask for! He's got a great mansion as his house, has the money to buy whatever he wants and-."

"You're wrong," Kaiba said, her eyes hidden from Jounouchi by her long bangs.

"What do you mean I'm wrong? If you're in love with Kaiba there's nothing I can do. And being with him means that you can have everything and anything you want," Jounouchi said, trying to make himself feel better about the supposed rejection.

"You don't understand. You don't get it at all! And that's why you'll always be a pathetic, mangy mutt who's too big of an idiot to understand ANYTHING, you BONKOTSU," Kaiba tried to control her anger, but her emotions were getting the better of her for once.

"What the hell is wrong with you? I try to be nice, invite you to my birthday party and try to make you happy and all you're doing is being a whiney little teenager that complains about everything if it doesn't go the way you want it to. No wonder you're with Kaiba. You two are exactly alike," Jounouchi yelled, "You two have all the money you could ask for, but you two are never happy. You two hate everyone else, think you're better than everyone else, can't trust others, have no family except for a younger brother, and have cold looking eyes and even colder hearts!"

Kaiba slapped the blonde across the face, "JUST SHUT UP! YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ME! You think that only objects you can hold onto are the things that make a person happy? That a person can be happy as long as they have money? UGH! YOU CAN JUST GO JUMP OFF A CLIFF FOR ALL I CARE YOU MUTT!"

Kaiba opened the door that lead to the hallway downstairs, "FINE! LEAVE! SEE IF I CARE! I DON'T CARE!"

Jou slumped down onto his bed with his face in his hands and his elbows on his thighs. He looked up to see his sister in her regular blue shorts and pink shirt. She looked at her older brother with concern, "Why were you two fighting? I could hear you two clearly from my room and these walls aren't exactly thin."

"I don't know why she got so mad at me. I had a reason since she'd rather be with Kaiba than me. I mean I knew something was going on between Kaiba and Kairi because of their history together, but I was just hoping that maybe they didn't have anything going on between them," Jounouchi put his face back into his hands and sighed, "She told me something about how only touchable objects aren't the only thing that makes people happy."

"Oni-chan," Shizuka stated, "I'm sure there's nothing going on between her and Kaiba-san. There couldn't be."

"And how do you know that," Jounouchi asked, looking back up at his sister who had come to sit down next to him.

"Uh," Shizuka thought, "It's just a woman's intuition." 'I know nothing's going on between Kaiba and Kairi because they're the same person only different genders at the moment. Geez, this is kind of confusing sometimes,' Shizuka thought.

"I guess, but I still don't know what Kairi meant when she said 'I think that only objects are things that make people happy'. Do you know?"

"Well," Shizuka thought aloud, "Just think about it. She doesn't have any parents because they died. She should be with her family mourning their death, yet she was perfectly fine when she first showed up and decides she'd rather stay with Mokuba at the Kaiba mansion instead. She arrives the same day Kaiba leaves, has his exact same schedule at school, and gets along with the rest of your friends as well as he did and she looks like a female version of him. All this being said, don't you think it's all a little odd? She's exactly like Kaiba and claims to have known him in the past for looking after Mokuba when she's from America. She claims to have a little brother in the hospital she cares for dearly, but you don't see her sad about it."

Jou tried to take in everything his sister was saying to him until he heard the doorbell ring. He jumped at the noise and bolted down the stairs to see if it was Kaiba who wanted to try and sort out what had just happened. When he opened the door he was met with blue eyes.

Anzu smiled, "Hey Jounouchi, we're all here! Is Kairi already here?"

"She was here, but she left a few minutes ago," Jou replied. He thought, 'Damn it, Anzu sure is annoying. Why did I invite her anyway? Oh yeah, Yuugi asked me to.'

"Huh, why'd she leave," Otogi asked.

"Well, she… said she had something she had to take care of so she couldn't stay. We spent some time together here before she had to leave and got me an awesome horror movie," Jou half lied.

"I thought you were scared of horror movies. When we were first years you jumped into my arms from fright when we were at the museum looking at the new Egypt exhibit with the mummies," Honda pointed out.

"I got over being scared of them a while back and really got into watching them. I can watch 'SAW' and not be scared of it anymore," Jou said.

"Which one," Yami asked.

"All of them, actually," Jou said smugly.

"Jounouchi," Ryou exclaimed, "Your left cheek is bright red! What happened to it?"

Bakura smirked, "It's in the shape of a hand. Did Kairi get mad at you or did your sister smack you because of your stupidity?"

"Kura, that's not nice," Ryou said to his Yami.

"Uh, actually I accidently smacked myself while I was working out earlier," Jou felt a bit uneasy, "Anyway, it's time to party!"

After the party ended, only Yami and Yuugi were still over at Jounouchi's place for the sleep over part of the party. Shizuka and Yami had already fallen asleep and Jounouchi and Yuugi had gone downstairs to the kitchen to talk while the other two slept upstairs.

Yuugi looked over at Jounouchi, "So what really happened between you and Kairi earlier today? Did you say something to upset her?"

Jounouchi sighed, "I asked her to be my girlfriend when she came over, but she rejected me because she didn't want to cheat on Kaiba with me."

Yuugi spit out the drink he had been casually sipping at, "You did what! Wait, since when are Kaiba and Kairi together?"

"I didn't ask."

"Hold on, did she tell you she and Kaiba were together or did you say it?" Yuugi asked.

"I asked her if it was the case," Jou explained, "It would've hurt too much if she said it, but she ended up getting mad, slapping me and yelled at me."

"Jounouchi," Yuugi started; he really didn't know what he was supposed to say. He didn't want to spill Kaiba's secret, but he didn't want to lie to his best friend either, "Kairi isn't with anyone. She probably got mad at something you said. What exactly did you say?"

Jounouchi explained exactly what he said to Kaiba and what she had said back. Yuugi nodded his head as the information was processed through his head. "I don't know what to say, Jounouchi. I've never been in that kind of situation before so I don't know how someone is supposed to deal with something like that."

"It's alright, Yuugi," Jounouchi sighed, "I'll just try and apologize to her tomorrow."

"Alright then, Oyasumi, Jounouchi," Yuugi said as he went upstairs to join Yami in sleep.

"Oyasumi, Yuugi," Jounouchi said back.

The next day at school Jounouchi hadn't seen Kaiba at all. She didn't go to any of the classes she shared with him, but he knew she was at school since Ryou had said he'd seen her in one of his classes. She was avoiding him! She didn't even sit at her usual lunch table!

She had been able to dodge Jounouchi for twelve days, but she was starting to feel a bit guilty about what she had done and said. He hadn't meant anything he said to her, because she knew he had a crush on her and he wanted to be with her. She wanted to make it up to the blonde, but didn't know how. The brunette sighed.

"What's with all the sighing, Kaiba-boy," Pegasus asked.

Kaiba glared at the silver-haired man, "It doesn't matter. It's nothing you could help me with."

"Well, with the way you're acting, I have to say it's probably connected to why you've been avoiding Joey-boy," Pegasus grinned.

"How did you know about that," Kaiba asked.

"I didn't; I just took a guess and it turns out I was right," Pegasus's grin widened, "Do you want to try and make up with him."

Kaiba sighed, "Yeah, I do, but I don't know what I'm supposed to do! It's not like I've ever made up with anyone before."

"Oh Seto, you need to look at what's right in front of you!"

"What do you mean? The only thing in front of me right now is the calendar," Kaiba pointed out, "And since when did I say it was okay for you to call me Seto?"

"That doesn't matter right now! First look at the calendar and tell me what month it is!" Pegasus instructed.

"It's February. Why does that matter," Kaiba asked.

"Now tell me what day it is."

"It's the seventh," Kaiba replied.

"Now what room are we in," Pegasus asked.

"We're in the kitchen, but I don't see what any of this has to-," Kaiba paused in realization, "Oh no; oh hell no! I am NOT going to make Valentine's Day chocolates for that Bonkotsu! How could you even think that I would ever do such a thing?"

"You have an entire week to make it! And when you become a man again, he won't know it came from you," Pegasus pointed out, "And on White Day in March, he has to give you a gift that's ten times better than your chocolate."

Kaiba thought over her options and sighed, "Alright, I'll give it to him at school on Saturday. Wait, I don't even know what kind of chocolate he likes, or if he even likes chocolate."

"You could invite Shizuka-chan over," Mokuba said as he strolled into the kitchen, "She's good at cooking and could help you make Jounouchi-kun's favorite."

"How do you know she's such a great cook," Kaiba asked.

"Well, sometimes she and I eat lunch together and she once made me a lunch. Her and I have gotten really close actually," Mokuba explained.

Pegasus smiled and thought, 'How funny; the Kaiba brothers are falling for the Jounouchi siblings. That's so cute. They would surely make a cute, yet interesting, little family.'

"Well," Kaiba thought aloud, "Tomorrow is Sunday so she could help me then. Mokuba, do you have her number or something?"

"Yeah, she has a cellphone so I can just call her," Mokuba said as he took out his cellphone.

Shizuka clicked open her cellphone, "Hello?"

"Hey Shizuka, it's me, Mokuba. Do you have a minute?" Mokuba asked.

"Yeah, I just finished taking a shower and Oni-chan is off at work. What do you want to talk about?" Shizuka replied.

"Well, you know how Ni- I mean- Kairi and Jounouchi got into a fight a while back, right?"

Shizuka rolled her eyes, "Yes, I could hear Kaiba-kun and Oni-chan screaming their heads off from my room. You don't have to hide it, Mokuba. I know your brother is Kairi."

"Oh, you do? That makes it a lot easier on me," Mokuba let some sweat drop down the side of his face, "Anyway, Nii-sama wanted to make it up to Jounouchi-kun by making him some Valentine's Day chocolate, but doesn't know what kind to make. Do you think you could come over tomorrow to help him? I mean her?"

Shizuka giggled. "Yeah, I'll help 'Kairi' with the chocolates. Oni-chan will be off at work again tomorrow, too. Do you think you could pick me up around noon or so tomorrow?"

"Sure," Mokuba said, "See you then?"

"I'll see you then," Shizuka said, "Bye."

"Bye," Mokuba clicked his phone closed.

"What did she say?" Kaiba asked.

"She said she's coming over at noon tomorrow. Jounouchi will be off at work so she has nothing to do," Mokuba replied, a hint of blush on his face.

Kaiba caught it and smirked, "I see; you've got a crush on Shizuka, don't you?"

Mokuba's blush brightened, "I do NOT!"

"Uh-huh, sure you don't," Kaiba said, "It's alright. You can be in love with whoever you want. I think it's kind of cute. You're first love."

"She is NOT my first love! I don't love her; she's just a friend," Mokuba said.

"Just admit it, Little Brother," Kaiba said, "You like her and that is that."

"If I like Shizuka then that means you like JOUNOUCHI," Mokuba exclaimed.

Kaiba's eyes widened and her mouth gapped open. She became angry, "I don't like that Bonkotsu! Where in the world did you get that kind of idea, anyway? We're both men!"

"If you didn't like him, you wouldn't have kissed him," Mokuba pointed out.

Kaiba blushed, "Wh- How do you know about that?"

"Shizuka told me. Jounouchi's got a pretty big mouth and likes to talk about you when he's with Shizuka," Mokuba smirked, crossing his arms.

"Ugh, that's it. I'm going to bed and reading until I fall asleep," Kaiba said.

The next day, Shizuka came over around noon and the two teens got to work. "Well, hello there, Shizuka-chan. It's been a while hasn't it," Pegasus said cheerfully, "You're here to help Seto out with the Valentine's Day Chocolates for Joey-boy?"

"I am; and it's nice to see you Pegasus," Shizuka said, smiling at the silver-haired man, "But I'm going to be making some for myself to give out on Valentine's Day, too. Would you like some for later?"

"I would love some," Pegasus said, "Oh and Seto, I think I once remember hearing that Joey-boy had a thing for short pony-tails. Maybe you should cut your hair to give it that cute bob for a short pony-tail."

"I am not going to cut my hair just so that Jounouchi will like it. What kind of guy do you think I am," Kaiba asked.

"The feminine kind at the moment, Nii-sama," Mokuba said with a smile on his face, "You two have fun. I'm going to go over to a friend's house."

"Alright, but be home no later than 7 o'clock. You have school tomorrow and you can't be tired," Kaiba said.

"Yes, mother," Mokuba said sarcastically as he left the room.

Shizuka giggle and Kaiba rolled her eyes. "Alright then, mom; let's get this chocolate out and made for dad so you two can make up."

"What is up with you two? I am not your mother or Mokuba's. And are you trying to suggest that Jounouchi is the dad in this little make believe family?"

"That's exactly what I'm saying. Just think about it," Shizuka said as they both put their hair up in pony-tails, "Maybe turning into a girl was fate. Maybe it was fate saying that you and Oni-chan were meant for each other, but you were both too blind to see it that so fate had to show you by making it seem like you didn't know each other."

"If what you're saying is even close to being true, why am I the girl?" Kaiba asked.

"You're more feminine than my brother. And just think, you may be good at Duel Monsters, but Jounouchi is physically stronger- more so than you could ever hope to be; no offense."

Kaiba pouted, "None taken- anyway, we need to start on some chocolate. What's his favorite kind of chocolate?"

"He likes Milk chocolate and white chocolate," Shizuka said, "But personally I think white chocolate is disgusting."

"Huh, white chocolate is disgusting, but those are Mokuba's favorite chocolates, too," Kaiba said taking out recipes, pots, mixers, measuring cups and any ingredients they might need.

"That's funny. I like milk chocolate better. What do you prefer," Shizuka asked as she tied on her apron.

"Meh, I'm more of a French Vanilla person."

"Anyways, let's get cooking!"

After a few hours of mess-ups and messes, the two had finally made enough chocolate to satisfy them. "We're finally done! And it only took us," Kaiba looked at the clock, "five hours to do it."

The two chuckled, "That was fun, but now I'm covered in flour and other stuff. Can I take a shower?"

"You can; there's a bathroom with a shower up the nearest flight of stairs. You take a right, and it'll be the third door to your right. Can you remember that," Kaiba asked.

"Yeah, thanks," Shizuka said.

"And be careful; Pegasus is a creeper so you should make sure he's not in there and then lock the door," the two giggled until Kaiba stopped immediately, "I'm not kidding. He scared the hell out of me when he did it to me last week."

Shizuka went upstairs. When there was a ring at the doorbell, Kaiba jumped in surprise. No one had ever gotten close enough to the door to ring the bell without her knowing. When she opened the door, her eyes widened. IT WAS JOUNOUCHI! What was he doing here?

Suddenly, she had become conscious of her appearance. She was still covered in flour and other ingredients. She still had her apron on and her hair was in a bun, since it kept getting in the way when it was a pony tail.

Jounouchi scratched the back of his head, "Hey Kairi, um, I just got back from work and noticed that Shizuka wasn't at home. She left a note saying she was here so I came to pick her up… So, is she here?"

"Uh," Kaiba started, "Yeah, she is, but she's taking a shower since she was pretty much in the same condition I am now."

"Oh, do you think I could come in until she's done?" Jounouchi asked.

"Sure," Kaiba said, "As long as you don't go in the kitchen. It's a mess in there and I don't want anyone seeing it."

The two sat down in the living room. Though, the awkward silence was covering the room and it was becoming unbearable! Finally, Kaiba decided to say something, "Would you like something to drink?"

"Yeah, thanks for that," Jou replied, "Shizuka takes forever in the shower- usually half an hour."

"I see; I'll be right back. What do you want?" Kaiba asked.

"Uh, maybe a soda; do you have Dr. Pepper," Jou asked.

"Mokuba drinks it all the time," Kaiba said as she made it back and handed him the can. She had left the apron in the kitchen so half of the mess on her body was gone.

"So, uh, how have you been? I haven't seen you all week," Jou said, deciding he should start some small talk.

"I've been busy with Kaiba Corporation," Kaiba explained.

"You work for Kaiba Corp.?" Jounouchi asked, "I didn't know that."

Kaiba looked at her watch, "Mokuba should be home soon. I should probably clean myself up before he gets home."

Just as she headed for the stairs to her private bathroom she heard a spill. She turned towards Jounouchi to see his shirt and jacket covered in soda. Her face went blank with no amusement. Jounouchi laughed, "Uh, do you think you have a shirt I could borrow?"

"Ugh, you can borrow one of mi- Seto's. It might be a bit tight on you and it'll be long on the arms, but it's better than nothing," Kaiba sighed, "The room is up these stairs to the left, then a right and then the fifth door on the left. It'll have double doors."

Jounouchi thanked her and the two went their separate ways.

After five minutes of wandering, Jounouchi had declared that he was, in fact, lost in this labyrinth of a house. He looked around the hall to try and find the correct room. 'Did she say it was a right and then the fourth door on the left or a left and then the fifth door on the right? Damn it! I can't remember! I suck at remembering directions for more than three minutes! She's probably done by now and I'm still wandering around shirtless,' Jounouchi thought to himself.

He looked to one door to his right and saw that it was the fifth one from the corner and that it was double doors, 'This must be the room she was talking about.'

When he cracked the door open and peaked in so that he could only see inside the room his face reddened from what he saw. Kaiba was standing in the middle of the room in only a pair of black booty shorts and a bra, and looking at 3 different blouses, probably deciding which one she should wear, 'HOLY CRAP! What am I going to do? If I try and shut the door, she'll hear it! If I leave without shutting the door, she'll notice! If I open the door, she'll hate me! If she notices me before I make up my mind of what to do, she'll hate me, throw me out and think I'm a peeping tom! WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?'

Jounouchi closed his eyes. He believed he was making the smartest decision he could think of. And since we all know Jounouchi, what he thinks is the smartest option is the most stupid. He opened the door completely and tried to look as innocent as possible. When they locked in eye contact, they both blushed. Kaiba put her arms over her chest. She was about to yelp, but Jounouchi ran up to her and put his hand over her mouth, "Please don't scream. I didn't mean to walk in on you, but just don't scream."

When the blonde was sure she wouldn't scream he removed his hand from her mouth and let her speak, "What the hell are you doing in here? I specifically told you to go to the left, then a right and then the fifth door on the left. How did you end up getting to my door that was on the exact opposite side of the house?"

"How am I supposed to remember all of those directions? It's easy to get lost if you suck at directions as much as I do," Jounouchi said.

"I thought men were supposed to be good at directions," Kaiba said, forgetting that they were both shirtless.

Jounouchi was still angry about the brunette avoiding him all week and acted on instinct. He grabbed the brunette and tripped her, both teens landing on the bed. They wrestled, trying to get the other person off of them.

"Nii-sama, I'm home! And Shizuka's still here," Mokuba said as he and Shizuka appeared in the doorway that Jounouchi had left open.

The two pairs of teens stared at each other and blushed. Shizuka spoke, "Um, are we interrupting something?"

"So you two made up?" Mokuba asked, rubbing his nose with his index finger still looking uneasy, "I didn't know you two had decided to do, um, do you know what together."

Jounouchi sat up from where he was on the bed, waving his arms in front of his torso, "No, we weren't going to do that! What gave you that idea?"

"Well, you're both on the bed shirtless," Shizuka pointed at the 3 shirts now on the floor.

"And you're in between Nee-sama's legs," Mokuba said, still blushing.

Kaiba and Jounouchi looked at each other and then blushed, each getting on the opposite sides of the bed. Kaiba grabbed the first shirt she saw, put it on, and cleared her throat, "Well, he's only in here because I sent him off with directions he couldn't follow and he ended wandering in here."

"Right, anyway, could you show me the room where I can borrow a shirt?" Jounouchi asked.

Kaiba scoffed, "Find it yourself or go home shirtless. I don't give a fuck."

Kaiba brushed past the two younger teens in the doorway and slammed the door to her study, locking it behind her. Mokuba sighed.

"Don't worry; she's not mad at you, Joey-boy. She's just embarrassed about it and doesn't know how to deal with it so she throws a tantrum and storms off," Pegasus said, walking up to the three teens left. He had a shirt in his hand and threw it to Jou, "Here, put this on so you and Shizuka can go home. I'm sure you're tired from work."

Jounouchi caught the garment and put it on, "Wait a second; if you're here, then where is Kaiba? Wasn't he supposed to meet you in America for business?"

"He went to America to visit another business CEO. Honestly Joey-boy, I'm not the only business man Kaiba-boy is associated with," Pegasus said while shrugging his shoulders and shaking his head.

Jounouchi had his stained shirt and jacket in his arms while he and his sister climbed onto his motorcycle. He didn't have a car yet since he was only 17 and, in Japan, he wasn't allowed to drive a car until he turned 18 years old. Shizuka held a bag with half of the chocolate they had made that day, closed so Jounouchi couldn't see or smell what it was, "See you at school, Mokuba!"

"Bye Shizuka; bye Jounouchi. Drive safely home," Mokuba said as he waved at the two as the bike started and went down the driveway.

Soon the two were out of the 12 year-Old's sight.

When Mokuba went back inside, he went upstairs and knocked on the door to Kaiba's study, "Nii-sama, it's me. Open the door."

Mokuba heard footsteps and then the click of the door unlocking. He heard the footsteps receding so he opened the door and saw his older brother sitting at her desk, her face completely indulged in paperwork and the computer monitor. "Nii-sama, are you okay? Do you want to talk about it?"

"There's nothing to talk about, Mokuba. That idiot is causing me too much trouble and I don't need that in my life. If you want, you can eat the chocolate left downstairs," Kaiba said, not even bothering to look away from her work.

"I'm not eating that chocolate. It's meant for Jounouchi. That's why you spent all day making it," Mokuba said gently, "You can't get embarrassed when you get into a situation like that and then hide it by getting angry at Jounouchi-kun. You need someone else in your life that can help you relax and take it easy- to get away from work when you need it since you don't know when to stop working."

"Mokuba, I'm busy. I don't need anyone but you. I don't get embarrassed-," Kaiba started.

"Mokuba's right, Seto. Even I needed someone by my side to help me through the hard times," Pegasus said, leaning against the doorframe, "I loved that someone so much I almost killed you, Mokuba, Yuugi-boy and his friends to get her back. You need that someone."

Kaiba sighed, "It's getting late. Why don't you head on off to bed, Mokuba?"

Mokuba was about to protest, but Pegasus laid a hand on the raven-haired boy's shoulder, "Go to bed, Mokuba. I'll talk to Seto. I'll try my best to get through that thick skull."

Mokuba smiled at the silver-haired man and nodded, leaving the two CEOs to talk. He closed the door behind the young teen and sat down next to her, "You really should consider getting together with Joey-boy. He'd be good for you."

"But I don't want to be with that Bonkotsu. He's not good for me and I'm not into him," Kaiba said irritated, "And why do you care? It doesn't benefit you in any way."

"I've never told anyone this, but," Pegasus sighed, "My wife, Cynthia, was pregnant before she died. She told me she was going to have a girl and that I was the girl's father. I was thrilled. I was so happy that I was finally going to start my own family, but Cynthia wasn't strong enough and passed away after she gave birth. I couldn't stop crying and prayed that our daughter might be able to make it through alright, but she too passed away."

Pegasus had a hurt look on his face. He looked at Kaiba, who had eyes so wide you'd think they were Yuugi's eyes. She also had sadness showing on her face. She opened her mouth to speak, but no sound came out. She didn't know what to say. Pegasus began again, "I know you lost your mother the same way. Is that partially the reason you hold Mokuba so dear to you? Because you're glad he made it and don't want to lose him?"

Kaiba looked down at her lap. "I don't want to lose Mokuba because he's the only person I have left and I need to be the parent he never got to have. I loved our mother when she was alive. It hurt me so much to see her die, to actually watch the life in her fall away until she had no more," She looked up at the silver-haired man, "That's why I act like a mother. If I remember correctly, I look exactly like my mom except for the fact that she had black hair like Mokuba."

"Mokuba didn't get to know his father much either, did he?" Pegasus asked, "If you got together with Jounouchi, you could have someone that can help you relax when you need it and someone that can act as a father towards Mokuba. Just think about it, Seto. When you give Jounouchi the chocolate this Saturday, ask him out on a date. If you don't like it then you don't have to get together with him."

Kaiba looked at the clock. It was actually almost midnight, "It's getting late and I need to go to school tomorrow. Good night, Pegasus."

Pegasus smiled as the two went to their rooms to sleep, "Good night, Seto."

Hey everyone, I'm sorry it's taken so long, but I've only had weekends to work on this and sometimes I suffer from writer's block. *Insert dramatic music here* So if you enjoyed this new chapter then please review so that I know.
