Disclaimer: Read all the previous chapters please… I know, you know, we know, they know, EVERYONE KNOWS that Shaman King is not mine, except for a Lyserg doll that I made it myself. Feel free to email or SKYPE me if you want to take a look at my darling. A few people actually had asked me about it.
It had begun raining outside the motel that Lyserg was still staying in.
It's amazing how his current secret relationship with Yoh could make him postpone his leave for England, and it doesn't bode well with him either, he would have a lot of explaining to do with his lecturer at the Law and Order institution he's studying in. His lecturer actually had high hope for him, trust him even, but there's such thing as too long a semester break and not to mention other students will grow suspicious of him.
''So...?''
Yoh plopped down on the couch and made himself comfortable. ''So what?'' It never cease to amaze him how the British boy could rent a motel room like this, its not often that motel rooms have a living room, let alone have the said living room divided from the bedroom. Yoh could only assume that Lyserg's wealth plays in, with the brief memory of the dowser trying to pay them back with a blank cheque after hurting Ren and HoroHoro in their little fight tirade last year.
Lyserg frowned as he entered his rented room, a small line of irritation marring his smooth forehead. ''You're the one who wanted to come over, Yoh. Wasn't there a reason?''
''What? Large brown eyes blinked up at him innocently. ''I need a reason to hang out with my boyfriend who's going back to England soon?''
A muscle in Lyserg's jaw twitched and he turned his face away from the smiling Japanese boy. ''I am not your boyfriend, Yoh!''
Yoh giggled. ''You're blushing!''
''I am not blushing.'' The former X-Laws member hunched his shoulders slightly to hide his burning cheeks and crossed his arms. ''And I am not your boyfriend.''
''And if you are not mine, then who's are you?'' Yoh pushed himself off the couch and over so that he could see Lyserg's face. As he approached the other boy Yoh saw that, if anything, his face had gone redder. Later Lyserg spoke up ''You're so unbelievable, you know that? I belong to no one! And I think it's just way too much that you ditched Anna and choosing me over her! Is this some kind of-''
Strong arms suddenly wound around his narrow waist, startling the smaller teen as he was pulled back into a warm embrace. Lyserg shuddered and wondered how did Yoh move so fast since he didn't even hear him move.
A warm whisper slipped into Lyserg's right ear, making the boy bend away from the invasion of his personal space and shiver again. ''Look at you,'' Yoh murmured in tender amazement. '' You are blushing, and you are MINE…''
''Sh…shut u..up..''
Yoh's arm tightened. Lyserg leaned back and closed his eyes in surrender as slow, gentle kisses descended upon his exposed neck. ''Yoh…why…you…I…mmm…''
''Shh…where's the bedroom?''
''W...we shouldn't be doing this…''
''Why not? Lyserg dear, you are in a silly denial, do you even realise for how long we're hanging out together? It's almost November now.''
Lyserg only groaned and shifted restlessly as Yoh captured the skin of his neck between his teeth and began to suck on it. ''Are you telling me you don't want this, Lyserg dear?''
Lyserg moaned as Yoh's hands slid up to tenderly cup the growing warmth pooled between his legs. ''That's certainly not what this is telling me…''
''No…'' Lyserg responded.
Yoh reluctantly released him and turned Lyserg around so that he could look at him in the eyes. The British boy was pale except for a deep red flush sprinkled across his cheeks and dainty nose. His vivid eyes were a startling shade of bright green and had that glazed look that made Yoh's blood pulse hungrily in his veins and told him that at that moment he could get Lyserg Diethel to do almost anything. He smiled at his lover's dazed expression and softly ran his knuckles over Lyserg's cheeks. Lyserg didn't flinch, to Yoh's surprise.
That's it, I'm winning. He's going to fall for it. My revenge is working. He will finally get a taste of his own medicine.
''Lyserg…I'm not going to hurt you. I promise.'' He gently kissed Lyserg's forehead. ''You're precious to me.''
Lyserg quivered violently in his arms for a moment and closed his eyes, turning his face away. ''…This way…To my bedroom…''
A wild surge of victory and something close to glee went through Yoh as he took Lyserg's small hand and followed him to his bedroom. He barely waited until it had closed behind him before he launched himself at the lovely creature he'd finally managed to capture.
Lyserg cried out in surprise as Yoh pulled him close and kissed him savagely. He gave himself over utterly, and surrendered as Yoh ripped his jacket off him and his body was crushed against the door he couldn't move to lock.
But suddenly something inside Lyserg told him that he needed to make sure that Yoh truly loved him, that he truly cared before they make any further progress so he pulled himself away from the Japanese boy.
Yoh gripped his arms and said, ''Is there anything wrong?''
''It's not your concern.''
''It is my concern, Lyserg! You are my concern!'' Yoh jerked Lyserg's hands to his chest, forcing the smaller boy to lurch forward.
''Let me go, Asakura Yoh. I…I'm not sure if we really should go on like this. I mean, I'm not worth anyone's time. You would be much better of with someone else.''
But, Yoh did not want his game to end just like this, no way. After all that he went through. He immediately hugged Lyserg again and kissed him feverishly to assure him that he really loved him. Lyserg gasped, finding it hard to believe that Yoh really want him of all people. Why Yoh, why are you making me feel so confused? Are you even serious with me? I'm nothing, nobody would ever genuinely want me to be their boyfriend, I'm too weak. If I'm strong I wouldn't have betrayed my own companions and let my grudges cloud my judgement.
''Yoh…stop. STOP IT! LET ME GO! I'M NOT YOUR PET!'' Lyserg began to struggle half-heartedly, distracted by the feel of Yoh's wandering fingers around his backside.
''And I want you. All of you, Lyserg.''
''…What?...''
''I said I want all of you. I want your anger. I want your hate. I want your joy. I want to see you laugh. I want all of it. Always.''
Green eyes blinked in disbelief and Lyserg screamed, ''WHY?!''
''You're important to me, dear. You're an important person to me.''
A violent shudder moved through Lyserg as though he had been doused with cold water. ''Daddy? Am I important?''
''I… Yoh…'' Lyserg looked up at him and the wild haired teen was am amazed to see tears sliding down his cheeks. ''I… There aren't words…''
Yoh continued to embraced Lyserg and catch up a single crystal drop on one finger. He lifted up Lyserg's chin so that they're staring into each other's eyes. For a moment Yoh almost felt sorry for the green haired boy, but remembering how feeling sorry for Lyserg had brought upon his team's inconvenience as Lyserg left them for the X-Laws, he decided to put aside those feelings of sympathy. Lyserg certainly had enough of sympathy, heck he don't deserve it!
Lyserg sighed and a chill seemed to go through him. ''I'm sorry... I think I love you, Yoh.''
Yoh froze at those powerful words. He knew he should say something. He knew he should feel victorious, this was what he had been waiting for. He should take advantage of this situation. He should…
Yoh don't understand why at the moment he felt guilty and…warm? Lyserg's eyes were so very glazed in that instant and the feeling of him pressed against his body making it hard to think. Yoh felt like his head was spinning.
As Lyserg kissed him, Yoh responded by putting his tongue into the wet cavern, slowly savouring the taste inside Lyserg's mouth. Somehow, he felt happy, that Lyserg finally kissed him without any resistance, without being forced to. A new strange feeling surged through Asakura Yoh.
Both of them knew that this is not a sexual kiss. This kiss held something more powerful than lust. Something had changed between them.
But before they could find out what it was, the door to Lyserg's bedroom was opened.
So, how was it? Hope this longer chapter could make up for it. Read and review! That would make me glad.
