Seto woke up the next morning feeling a little better. Bakura decided to distract him. He and Mokuba were on to something...
"Good Morning, Seto!" Bakura said.
"Good morning, 'Kura!" Seto said.
While Seto and Bakura were talking, Mokuba was in another room on the phone.
"Yes, I'm calling to see how the...investigation is going." Mokuba said.
"Well, Mr. Kaiba, we've found some interesting stuff." The voice on the other end said.
Mokuba was listening closely at some details. He raised an eyebrow and turned red with anger.
"Aha! Keep gathering that evidence!" Mokuba said.
He walked back to the kitchen. Seto was cooking breakfast as Bakura was making tea.
"'Kura, I need to talk to you." Mokuba said.
"What's wrong-" Seto inquired.
"Alone..." Mokuba interrupted.
Seto raised an eyebrow.
"You two better not be going through some shit without telling me!" Seto growled.
"Don't worry. We're ok." Mokuba said.
Seto got back to cooking.
Mokuba and Bakura walked out of their hotel suite and headed to the courtyard to talk. Mokuba filled Bakura in.
"Jesus Christ! I can't believe it, Mokuba!" Bakura said.
"I know..." Mokuba said. He was a little sad.
"How are we going to tell Seto?" Bakura said.
"I don't know..." Mokuba said,
"This morning I got a call stating that my guitarist won't be able to perform with us due to health issues, so I have an idea." Bakura said.
"Bingo!" Mokuba said.
A few hours later, they went to rehearse It was their second rehearsal. Seto, Mokuba and Bakura took their places and then all of a sudden, the new guitarist walked in. He was a tall, skinny handsome guy with blonde hair and his face was covered with a mask. He didn't speak at all. His blonde hair was up in a man bun. Seto felt his heart beat really fast for no reason.
They rehearsed for a great while. The new guitarist was very mysterious. He didn't speak, and he kept that damn mask on the whole time.
"Thank you guys! We did great!" Bakura said after the rehearsal. The new guitarist disappeared.
Tomorrow was the second semifinal and Bakura was going to be introduced.
"Who's your new guitarist, Bakura?" Seto asked.
"I don't know. The musical director just assigned him." Bakura said.
"Told ya he likes blondes." Mokuba sneered.
"Hehe Maybe I do." Seto said. He blushed really hard.
The next day Mokuba found Seto on his phone.
"Who are you gonna call?" Mokuba asked.
"Takeshi. He texted me last night" Seto said.
"You're gonna call that scumbag? He doesn't deserve-" Mokuba said angrily.
"I don't wanna hear it." Seto said.
"He has a wife and she's pregnant!" Mokuba shouted.
Seto stopped and looked at Mokuba.
"What did you say?" Seto asked incredulously.
"I have a friend that knows Takeshi, and he knows that you two are dating. He sent me these pictures from two days ago. Yesterday, he had a party and Takeshi brought his wife and son there and he introduced the woman as his wife and a small child as his son." Mokuba said. He got his phone and showed Seto the pictures.
Seto didn't want to believe it. Tears spilled from his eyes.
"I was at his house and spent the night with him twice. How did I not pick up on that?! There weren't any pictures or women and children's belongings suggesting he was married!" Seto cried.
He called Takeshi immediately.
"Hello!" a jolly female voice with a British accent greeted him.
"Hello, may I speak with Takeshi Yoshida, please?" Seto asked.
"May I ask whom I have the pleasure of speaking with?" The woman asked.
"Yes... This is... K-K-K-K-...Seto. A man who does business with his firm." Seto said.
"ARE YOU NUTS?!" Mokuba mouthed out to him.
Bakura walked in the room and Mokuba gestured him to be quiet.
"I see, Mr. Seto. I will let him know to give you a call. He's showering at the moment." She said.
"Thank you, ma'am." He said.
He hung up and cried bitterly.
"Bastard! I was honest with him! I could break that home if his wife finds out! Why didn't he tell me that he had a family?!" Seto sobbed.
Mokuba and Bakura comforted him.
"I should've listened to you guys. God, I'm so stupid! I'm a homewrecker, an adulterer and the lowest scum of the earth!" Seto sobbed.
"It's not your fault, Seto. You didn't know that he was married. He lied to you." Bakura said.
Two hours later..
"Seto. Let's get ready to go see the second semi final." Mokuba said as he tried to wake up Seto.
"I am not going." Seto said.
"Yes you are! We're going to support Bakura!" Mokuba said as he dragged Seto out of bed.
Mokuba convinced Seto to go. His mood suddenly changed. He loved Eurovision. He sang along to nearly all of the songs. His most favorite that night was Israel's entry "I Feel Alive" by Imri. Mokuba was happy to see his brother this way. Little did they know that Joey, Yugi, Mai and Ishizu were watching it live at the same venue as well. They were just a few rows behind them.
Bakura was being introduced and everyone cheered loudly for him.
"I need to go to an ice rink tomorrow." Seto told Mokuba after the show.
"That's a good idea." Mokuba said.
The next morning, Mokuba and Bakura woke up. Seto was gone.
"This is not good..." Mokuba said.
They called and texted him, but he never answered.
Seto did as he planned. He rented out a skating rink to himself. He took a picture of his biological parents with him. His mother loved to skate and taught him skating, gymnasics and ballet since he was 3. She tried to teach Mokuba as well, but Mokuba never liked it. He wanted to be a figure skater as well, but never actually tried to pursue it. Figure skating was just a hobby. Yes, he was also a huge Yuzuru Hanyu and Yuuri Katsuki fan. He had the techs play "I Feel Alive" for him while he skated. He had that song on repeat.
He danced on the ice and added a few jumps. Especially around the chorus. He moved beautifully and landed all his jumps.
Once it was over, he felt so happy, he almost cried.
"Did you see that, mom?" Seto asked loudly as he looked up with tears in his eyes. He took out the picture of his parents and kissed it.
"Where the fuck is he?" Mokuba asked as they looked all over for him.
Bakura and Mokuba were crossing a street until...
"SETO!" They called out.
"Hey, guys!" Seto said.
"Where the fuck were you?" Mokuba asked.
"We were worried sick!" Bakura said.
"What are you wearing underneath that hoodie?" Mokuba asked. Bakura unzipped it.
Mokuba's eyes grew wide in embarrassment and Bakura had a nosebleed.
Seto wore a very revealing skating outfit.
"I went skating." Seto said.
"Seto, you're showing too much skin! " Mokuba said.
(Think of his skating outfit kind of like something a badly wrapped mummy would wear, but it's black and black transparent cloth covered the bits- or rather chunks of skin. It was a very sexy outfit. It fit like a glove in his body and showed his silhouette. As we know, Seto is tall, very thin and has a feminine shape with long legs and I could also say he had a nice ass )
"God, Mokuba. I'm not your baby! " Seto said.
"I don't like you wearing tight, revealing or sexy outfits. All of these men and even women are gonna be eyeballing you and then they'll devour you with their eyes and I will skin those fuckers alive! " Mokuba said.
Bakura tried so hard not to laugh.
"But Mokuba-" Seto whined
"No, missy! Don't 'but Mokuba' me!" Mokuba said.
Seto headed back to the hotel, which was very much near the area.
As soon as Seto left, Bakura burst out laughing.
"What's wrong? " Mokuba asked.
"I can't believe it, Mokuba! " Bakura said hysterically. He couldn't help it.
"Can't believe what? " Mokuba asked.
"You treat Seto like he's your teenage daughter! You've become overprotective of him! " Bakura laughed.
"Don't you realize we're talking about Seto?! He acts like a teenage girl! Every time his favorite K-Pop groups are on TV, he fangirls and drools like a motherfucker. And you should've seen and heard him yesterday when Israel's act was performing. He even said that he wanted to have Imri's babies in his sleep. " Mokuba said.
"Oh my god... He really said that? " Bakura asked.
"Yes, he did. " Mokuba said.
Joey was in the shower while Yugi and Marik were cooking.
Marik decided to sneak up on Joey.
Joey was having a bubble bath and rested. He slept for twenty minutes and was woken up by some splashes in the water.
As soon as he opened his eyes...
"MARIK! What the fuck, man?! "
"We had a great time the other night, Joey. Would you like me to remind you? " Marik crooned.
"No, Marik. I'm going to fix my marriage with Seto. I love Seto." Joey said.
Marik wanted to laugh.
"...and I know that he still loves me and thinks about me too. " Joey continued as his honey brown eyes stared at the foamy bubbles below him.
"Breakfast is ready!" Yugi said.
He opened his eyes
"Why didn't you guys tell me you were having a hot tub party? Let me join you! " Yugi said cheerfully.
"NOOOOO!" Joey and Marik said in unison. Too late. Yugi stripped down and hopped on the tub with them.
"Ahhhhh... Relaxing! " Yugi said sweetly.
They stayed there and said nothing for a good twenty minutes until Joey got out.
"I'm hungry. Let's eat! " Joey said.
Yugi and Marik also got out of the hot tub and headed to their rooms in their suite to dress.
"I love Ukraine! " Yugi said.
The next night Bakura drew.
"It looks like I'll perform in the second half of the Grand Final. " He said cheerfully. He posed do the cameras and gave them a big smile.
After his draw, he went back to rehearsing. Seto couldn't take his eyes off of the new guitarist. The rehearsal went well.
"Maybe I should talk to him. " Seto said.
He went back to the guitarist's part of the dressing room and...
"He's gone. Again. " Seto growled.
"Hey Seto. " Bakura said.
"Tomorrow's the Grand Final. And I haven't been able to talk to the guitarist yet... " Seto said.
Bakura and Mokuba looked at eachother.
NIGHT OF THE GRAND FINAL:
Yugi and the guys were in the audience watching. They made signs and waved American, Japanese, British and Egyptian flags. They were definitely cheering Bakura on.
Bakura was a little nervous. He was up next. Seto, Mokuba, the mysterious guitarist and the other two people that were going to be on stage with Bakura were lined up. They couldn't talk, or even move. Mokuba broke that rule as he immediately held Bakura's hand and gave him a smile.
"United Kingdom, you're up!" one of the crew members said. They shot the camera at Bakura and the band. Bakura was still with his violin and the guys were standing behind him. Mokuba was more to the side with his hand on Bakura's shoulder. They rolled Bakura's video postcard.
{Bakura's video postcard}
Bakura was cooking breakfast and making tea. He was wearing a cute apron and pulled his hair into a ponytail. After that it showed Bakura playing a very complicated sonata on the piano. After that the camera shifted from his living room to a concert hall with Bakura playing a violin solo with an orchestra and wore a suit. After that, we see Bakura walking the streets of London wearing a cute sweater, a button up shirt underneath the sweater and some blue jeans. He then meets with Mokuba and they take a selfie.
"Give it up for the United Kingdom! " the two hosts shouted. (not televised)
A the music started playing. The light shine first on a beautiful woman that played the harp sweetly and then on Bakura who played the intro with the violin. The crowd cheered loudly the minute Bakura started to sing.
"Broken hearted you found me"
"Go Bakura! " Yugi cheered loudly
"WOOOOOO! " Marik, Yami Bakura, Tea and Grandpa cheered.
The rest of Yugi's posse just cheered and waved flags.
Right when Bakura was about to sing the chorus, the light expanded and shone on Mokuba (who was playing drums,) Seto who was playing cello and was doing backing vocals, the mysterious guitarist who was also doing backing vocals, and the other violinist.
"You took my heart, mended it and broke it apart
Deceived me, took my body and then took my soul
You killed my spirit. No it could never ever resurrect.
You buried me alive! " Bakura sang passionately. He looked like he had tears building up in his eyes.
"Did Mokuba hurt him? " Marik asked.
"No. Bakura wrote this song and whenever he performs, he's passionate. He's also a great actor. " Yugi said.
"Shhh! I wanna hear him!" Grandpa said.
Bakura was finishing the song. Right when Bakura was playing the end of the song on his violin, the mysterious guitarist immediately kissed Seto. The crowd went wild. Yugi and the guys gasped.
Seto was a little surprised by the kiss, but there was something familiar about it. Or it just brought back beautiful memories and that's why he thought it was pleasant. Seto returned the kiss instinctively. The kiss was a very beautiful kiss.
*AN: I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! :) Should Bakura win? Also, I'm dying to see who this mysterious guitarist is. I wonder... Who is this guitarist?
Thanks to everyone who reviewed and reacted to the last chapter! :) I appreciate it! Maybe we'll unmask and meet the guitarist in the next chapter, huh? ;)
