Author's Note: Rated M because Kaiba's a horny bastard. Then again, when has he ever… not been a horny bastard in my stories? That would be like the end of the world!
B is for Back
Seto knew that his lover was self-conscious of his scars. It was why he waited until everyone left the locker room to change, and why he wore a t-shirt to the swimming pool. It was why he tried to make sure the lights were off whenever they made love, or at least facing each other, because the scars on his back were much worse than the scars on his front. It was why he was so hesitant to join in when Bakura and Marik decided that Strip Poker would be fun, even though he really wanted to play.
He damned that he'd been so cruel to his puppy when he should have been comforting him, telling him he was pretty and beautiful despite the scars. Because maybe then his puppy wouldn't be so embarrassed when he took his clothes off.
It was a rare occasion when Joey managed to get out of bed before he did—though not because Seto was a light sleeper. Quite the contrary, actually; he slept like a log, and the blond often woke up to the alarm clock before he did. It was a well kept secret, however, that Seto was a Snuggler. He liked to hold things close in his sleep. Joey had learned the hard way that trying to escape his grip when he was holding him in his sleep could get mighty painful.
Seto had apologized for the bruises for days. …He also yelled at the blond that it wasn't funny and he shouldn't be laughing.
So Seto wondered how Joey had slipped from his grasp to take a shower without his notice. Not that he was complaining; he always did enjoy listening to the blond sing when he thought no one was listening. However, he wasn't singing this morning. Probably worried he might wake him up. If so, the point was moot now.
Slipping into the shower silently, he couldn't help a feeling of awe that he had somehow managed to tame the ethereal creature in front of him. Joey was feisty, but once getting past that, he was sweet and loyal—almost to a fault. …Because Seto had a hard time staying mad at him when he looked up at him with those big, brown eyes and that beautiful, innocent face. He made it difficult to be mad sometimes.
He had no idea why the blond was so embarrassed of his scars, because even with them, he was quite gorgeous. He couldn't get enough of him, really, and he made sure the blond knew that. Besides, he liked kissing and nibbling them to make the blond try to forget all the bad things that had happened to cause them.
Hey, that was a good idea.
Seto slid his arms around the blond's waist and began placing kisses along one of the larger scars, then traced it carefully with his tongue. "Mm, puppy…"
Joey gasped as he felt the arms around his waist, then closed his eyes tightly and groaned. "Seto, I thought ya were asleep…"
The brunet hummed carelessly. "I was."
"B-but—Nn, stop it…" The younger boy blushed and reached down to grasp his arms. "Ya know I don't like ya doin' that."
"But puppy, you're so beautiful, all I want to do is eat you up." Seto slid one of his hands down his stomach to gently brush his cock before scratching his nails over his inner-thigh. "Each and every scar on your body is just another mental wound for me to kiss away, make you forget. It gives me a sense of satisfaction to cause pleasure…" He gave the scar another lick. "…Where someone had once caused pain."
Joey shuddered and bit his bottom lip. He'd never thought of it like that. "S-Seto…" He gasped as the brunet slid his arm under his leg and lifted it and leaned against the wall so he wouldn't fall. "Ah-!" He tried to grab something to anchor himself with, because he knew what was coming, but all he could get his hands on was slippery tiles and steamy glass. "Seto, wait—"
The brunet nibbled a scar beneath his shoulder blade and growled, then turned and shoved him up against the glass wall. "Mine."
"Awa!" The younger boy threw his head back weakly as the brunet thrust into him. "S-Seto!"
Seto started with a leisurely pace, focusing more on kissing the scars along his lover's back than actually making love to him. When he heard the blond whimper and scratch frantically at the glass in front of him, however, he licked one last scar before bracing himself and beginning to hump him properly.
Joey gasped softly and scrabbled even more desperately for something to hold onto, to keep him grounded. His hand just barely caught the top of the shower's glass wall, so he held onto that for dear life while his other hand went back to dig into the CEO's damp hair. "Aaahhhh! Seto! Please!"
"Do you know how beautiful you are? Even with these scars, you're so gorgeous. I can barely keep my hands off you." The brunet nibbled gently on his earlobe as the younger boy began to tremble. "You're so sweet. You're so innocent. I love that about you. I love that I can have something so beautiful but so feisty at the same time in my life. I love you so much."
The top of the wall was biting uncomfortably into his hand, and his leg was tired from being held in such an awkward position, but he couldn't seem to be able to speak. All he could do was moan as the brunet continued to drive their hips together and try not to let his other leg collapse.
Seto reached around and grabbed the blond's erection, sensing he wouldn't last much longer. "Come for me, puppy. I love watching you come." When the younger boy only groaned, he gripped his shaft a little harder as he moved his hand up and down. "Come on, Joey. I know you want to."
Joey sobbed quietly and let his head fall back on the brunet's shoulder. "Ahn-! Ah! Seto, please!" He mewled when it only earned him a harder thrust and gripped his lover's hair tighter, then let out a shriek. "OhGODSeto!"
The brunet groaned and closed his eyes as he felt him stiffen, always enjoying the feeling of the other boy tightening around him, then caught him as he fell limp. "Mm, such a good puppy…"
"Oh-! Oh God! Why would ya-! In the shower!" The younger boy closed his eyes tightly and shook his head. "Ya pervert!" He blushed even more as the brunet stiffened and released inside of him. "Mmn-!"
Seto hugged him tightly and went back to kissing and licking his scars. "Mm, you're so tasty, Joey. So beautiful. I love you."
Joey blushed even more, gripping gently at the older boy's hands, then leaned back against him. "…I love you, too, Seto." He hesitated before turning to face him and laying his head on his chest. "Thanks for loving me. Scars and all."
"I'd love you even if you were completely scarred." He smiled a little as he traced a deeper scar on the small of the blond's back. "But I do like your scars."
"You have some sort of fetish with them, Seto. You should talk to someone about that," the blond sighed, shaking his head slightly. "It can't be normal."
Seto raised an eyebrow. "When have I ever been normal? Besides, I like your scars. They give you character."
"…You're so fuckin' weird."
