Seeing as nothing much was happening on the Conrad and Yuri love front Yozak had decided to take matters into his own hands. He was certain he could pull it off alone but knowing how stubborn Conrad could be he felt that perhaps it be best if he allowed someone else to handle Yuri for him.

Yozak waited till he spotted his prey alone he stepped out of the shadows, "Lord von Bielefeld."

Wolfram stopped and glared at him, "What do you want?"

"I need your help."

Wolfram glared at him, eyes full of mistrust. After all he had trusted him once and ended up married to Murata. "What do you want?" Wolfram repeated not even trying to disguise the way he felt about Yozak at the moment.

Yozak understood but didn't let it faze him any. "So cold, I'm hurt." He said with mock expression. "I came to ask you to help me get Taicho and Bochan together."

"What?" Wolfram was utterly shocked. "After what happened you expect me to help you set my brother up with Yuri!"

"Mmm…Well then think about it like this. Since you can no longer be with Bochan I figured you'd at least want him with someone he wants to be with." Seeing Wolfram wasn't convinced he said, "Think about it like this. Would you rather see Bochan, go off and start dating random men and women? Most of whom will only want one of two things from him and some might even want both."

"Hmp, what would anyone want from that wimp."

"I don't know things like the money and power from being the king's bride, husband or consort or they may simply want him for his body."

Wolfram paled, now that he thought about it, it was highly likely that if Yuri started dating that people would flock to him if not for his body, then most defiantly for money and the power he holds.

"Wouldn't you rather he be with Taicho whom you know will only love and care for Bochan for who he is and not what he is?"

Wolfram didn't like it at all; but just huffed as he was obviously beaten. Not much choice; either help get Yuri together with Conrad and know he'll be taken care of or have him date at random and run into who knows how many psychos. "Fine what do you want from me?"

Yozak grinned knowing he'd won. He grabbed a bag and handed it to Wolfram. "Here just make sure Bochan is in that outfit at The Elite's Common at 5 o'clock. I'll make sure Taicho is there as well."

"The Elite's Common! That's one of the most expensive restaurants in town! I've heard it's nearly impossible to get a reservation less than six months in advance! How could you possibly get a reservation?"

"Simple really, I simply told them that the Maoh himself would like to dine at their fine establishment and they assured me they'd reserve a nice isolated corner booth. I told them the reservation was being made under the name of the close friend that will be accompanying him as to not arouse suspicion."

"Why are you doing this, now? We just broke up! Or should I say forced to break up!" Wolfram said glaring at Yozak. "If we give them time I'm sure they'll get together on their own!"

"Yeah right, Look, at the rate those two are going at it there's no way they'll get together till we're all old and grey."

Wolfram sigh, considering a mazoku's life span that saying something. Plus now that he thought about it Yuri being the wimp that he is Wolfram knew he would never be the one to ask. Then there was Conrad, no, as Wolfram thought about it, he realized that no matter what knowing how Conrad feels about the boy he's most likely wait for Yuri to get older before daring to ask him out if ever!

Still he wasn't so sure on Yozak's plan, "So you believe tricking them into a date is better? I mean I can get Yuri there, no question about that. He'll never suspect a thing. But Conard's another story. He's not stupid. There's no way you will be able to convince him to go to that fancy of a restaurant and not have him suspect something's up."

"Mmm…Trust me. I have a plan."

Wolfram looked at him with suspicious eyes clearly doubting his actual influence over Conrad but said nothing.

"Fine, we'll be there!" With that he stormed off.

"Mmm…Now to convince Taicho we need a night out on the town!"

x-x-x-x

Conrad sighed and sipped at his wine, he couldn't believe he let Yozak talk him into this. He glared at the empty seat wondering where the aforementioned man went to. He said he'd be right back, that was five minutes ago! He still couldn't believe he let himself get talked into coming here.

~-Flashback- ~

Conrad had just finished with Yuri's sword training for the day when Gunter came and dragged him away for more studying before having to see Gwendal about paperwork. He suddenly sensed he was being watched, he turned and right there in a tree was Yozak. "Having fun?"

Yozak grinned and hopped down and said, "No, but really as badly as sword training went today, it'd be better if you and Bochan would just make plans for a date already! Then maybe you'll both get your heads out of the clouds!"

"We will."

"When? He practically beat you in practice because you weren't paying that much attention! Or at least not at the sword."

Conrad simply glared at him and asked, "What's it to you, whether we get together or not?"

"I just want to make sure my friend finds the happiness he deserves. "

"I don't need your help."

"Fine, fine. Then how about we go out together?"

Conrad raised an eyebrow, "What?"

Yozak sighed, "You know kinda like a date? I have this new dress I've been dying to wear."

"No."

Yozak rolled his eyes, "Geez Taicho I was only kidding! Besides you're not my type!" Earning him a glare from Conrad, "Look there's this restaurant I got free meal passes for and I thought you could enjoy a night out."

"Why not find yourself a date?"

"Well I can't possibly find a date as I'm on duty till 4 and the vouchers are only good for today. So that'd leave me little time to go out and find a date worthy of such an expensive restaurant, Plus one that would appreciate my new dress! So that just leaves you, unless you'll be embarrassed to be seen with me?"

Conrad looked irritated and a bit shocked with his best friends words. So, to cut-off his untrue assumptions, he knew as false as they were and knowing that Yozak will never stop, he agreed quickly. "Fine, what restaurant are we going to?"

"Ah well, do you remember where the Aurora Hotel was?"

"I've been there a time or two, but I heard that place burned down a year or so ago?"

"Actually it was just burned out and yea that's the place. It was apparently bought out and renovated; it reopened a couple of months ago as a very high end, very classy upscale expensive restaurant called The Elite's Common."

"Now that you mention it I have heard of the place, I didn't know it used to be the Aurora Hotel. But how did you get in I've heard it takes months to get a reservation?"

"Let's just say I pulled a few stings."

Conrad was more suspicious than ever now.

"Hey don't look so suspicious, look I happened to be riding by not long ago coming back from a mission. I saw these women in trouble and went to help. This guy was drunk and wouldn't leave. I stopped and lent a hand. Afterwards the owner was so grateful they gave me these free meal tickets."

Well it wasn't a total lie. It was more like the new owner had a drunk for an investor who was demanding more money than what was given and promised. Yozak had taken care of him and promised her he'd never bother her again. She was so grateful just to be rid of him for the time being she gave Yozak the passes. Yozak had then took the drunk and threw him in a nearby spot that most people threw their drunks. He then hired a couple of strong but not huge men he knew that would help out. She liked the fact that they were twins and had long blonde hair. They could act as hosts by one showing people to their tables and the other taking the horses or carriages to the barn to be attended to by the stable hands. They could also handle drunks discreetly if needed.

"Fine, I'll go with you."

"Great! I'll meet up with you say 4:30?"

"Yeah sure."

x-x-x-x

Yozak waited, it was 4:40, 'Where is he? I told Lord von Bielefeld to have Yuri there at 5. If we left at 4:30 by the time we got there we'd have about ten minutes or so to kill before they showed up. Now we'll be lucky if we even beat them there!' He could only pray that Wolfram has as much trouble getting Yuri there as well. Finally Conrad showed up, "What took you so long?"

"Sorry for some reason my suit jacket didn't fit and my shirt had a stain in it. So I went out and bought a new suit."

"Ah, you didn't have to do that for little ol' me!"

"I didn't do it for you, baka! I did it because if it's a classy as you claim it is, then it'd look strange to just go there in my normal uniform."

"Could it also be you were thinking if it's that nice a place you might take Bochan there with you?"

"No and even if I was it's none of your business."

They sat at the table and chatted for a little bit and Conrad found it strange that Yozak didn't order himself a drink.

"Not drinking tonight?"

Yozak grinned, "Oh don't worry about me. I'm just going to go powder my nose then check out the wine list.

~-End Flashback- ~

Conrad was beginning to think he was being set up. He had a feeling he was going to end up killing Yozak before the night was through.

x-x-x-x

Yozak meanwhile had made arrangements with his friends, soon after making official arrangements for Yuri and Conrad. Now with his friends working there he'd asked them to keep an eye out for cancelations. They kept their end of the deal by giving a last minute canceled table to him and Wolfram. From what Yozak could tell of the map they'd be behind some plants but could still see Conrad and Yuri's table.

Satisfied he walked outside and into the shadows to wait for Yuri and Wolfram.
