Authors Note: This is part two. I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh.
Yami smirks in amusement. "I'm not repeating myself Jou."
Heba stands and walks towards the door. "I need to go do something, be back soon." Then he walks out the door.
Yami looks after Heba in confusion before leaving to go find Yugi.
Bakura enters and looks around. "Has anyone seen my fluffy hikari?"
Jou looks down tips of ears turning pink. "I didn't even get him something. Besides what do you get a guy who can buy anything he wants." He then looks up at Bakura. "No I haven't sorry."
"Huh? What are you muttering about? Get a gift for who?"
"Apparently, Mr. Moneybags got me a gift for Valentine's Day but I didn't get him anything because I didn't know what to get him."
Marik walks into the room.
"So, the priest got you a gift and you didn't get him anything because he could buy anything, even he world if he wants? Is that what you just said? Hello Marik"
"Yeah, it makes me feel bad when someone gets something for me but I have nothing in return."
Marik just smirks. "Hi, Bakura. Hey, mutt."
Jou glares at Marik. "Stop calling me that!"
Bakura smirks and shakes his head. "Just spend time with the priest. Most people won't go anywhere near him without an ulterior motive."
Jou snorts "True, he normally acts like he has a stick up his butt."
Ryou slips into the room and sneaks up behind Bakura. "Wow Bakura I didn't know you could give advice while bring nice to someone!"
Marik starts laughing.
Bakura jumps and looks at Ryou in surprise. "Maybe you should help him with that then, mutt."
Jou rolls his eyes. "And how exactly am I supposed to do that?"
Bakura turns to look at Jou. "Get to know him... Not the facade he puts up for everyone but family but the real him."
Jou sighs, "I'll try but you know his walls are hard to clime and impossible to brake down from the outside."
"So... You are persistent are you not? The fact that he got you something should prove that you have already managed to worm your way through his walls at least a little bit."
"True and I said I'll try. I just have to wait for him to get out of the meaning."
"See. There is your answer."
Ryou smiles at Jou. "The meeting is actually out early. Why do you think I'm here instead of on there?"
"True but then, where is he?"
"I would imagine he needed to speak to Atem about something and will be here momentarily."
Ryou and Bakura then leave the room holding hands.
Everyone jumps when they hear Yugi scram from somewhere. "HEBA!"
Jou looks at the door. "Oh, no what did he do now?"
Yami can now yelling. "Yugi where are you?"
Atem enters with Seto.
Atem looks at the group. "Jou have you seen Heba?"
Jou nodes. "Atem I think your Hikari is in just a little bit of trouble."
Yugi yells again. "HEBA GET IN THE KITCHEN NOW! YOU ARE SO DEAD!"
"I think he's in the kitchen."
Seto rolls his eyes. "Atem go retrieve your hikari."
Yami and Atem run to kitchen.
"Hello Seto"
"Hello mutt." Seto holds out package. "Happy Valentine's day." And looks away in embarrassment.
The tips of Jou ears go pink as he took the package. "ohm thanks."
Seto nods nervously as Jou opens it to find a necklace with a Millennium Rod pendant.
"happy valentine's day mutt." Seto said.
Jou smile and put it around his neck. "Thank you, but ohm I didn't get you anything. I tried to but nothing seemed right. I'm sorry if you feel slighted. I don't like not giving people something in return."
Seto sighs and shakes head. "I wasn't expecting anything. I did this because I wanted to. I'm not slighted."
"I'm glad. Ohm so wow was the meeting? Anything interesting happen?"
"Nothing really. The council wants Atem to get married and he's not having it."
Jou just smiles. "We both know there is only one person he would ever consider marrying. And I'm guessing the council doesn't like that."
Seto shook his head. "Nope. They think he should marry someone like Vivian or Anzu. Seto shudders.
Jou snorts, "Not in a million years would he ever even consider dating them let alone marrying them."
"I know. But the council keeps pushing it so he is now in quite the foul mood."
"They do know that they can't force him to do anything if he wishes he could marry Heba right now and they couldn't do squat!"
Seto nodded, "I know and they know it. Doesn't stop them from trying, puppy. I just hope Atem doesn't try to hide this from Heba."
"I'm sure he... Wait what did you just call me?" Jou's cheeks start gaining a pinkish tint.
Seto looks away embarrassed. "N-nothing."
"You just called me puppy..." Jou smiles and looks down.
Seto flushes slightly. "and? What of it? It suits you."
Jou shakes his head "Nothing, in fact I like it. Beats mutt by a long shot."
Seto flushes again. "Want to walk with me?"
"OK." Jou stands up.
Seto offers hand to Jou, and he takes it. Seto leads Jou to the palace gardens.
Jou just watches Seto out the corner of his eyes while trying to control his blush.
Seto sits down by a pond and looks at Jou pointedly. "I'm not going to bit, puppy."
Jou sits down beside you. "I know that. I just didn't have a chance to sit yet."
"You were staring puppy."
"I well, ohm... God's of Egypt why is this so hard?" Jou sighed. "Well it's just that I ohm. If you haven't noticed that I have had some feeling for you." Jou looks down hiding the fact that my entire face is red.
Seto's face flushes and smiles slightly. "I had noticed yes. I should have thought my getting you a gift for valentine's day made my own feelings obvious, puppy."
"They did... That's why I was staring at you. I'd never thought that my feelings towards you would be returned."
Seto shifts nervously before looking at Jou. "I don't really know how to express things without arguing with you."
Jou smirks. "Yeah that does seem to be the only way that we communicate."
"Indeed. Dinner tomorrow?"
Jou smiles and nods. "Sure, I would like that. Ohm could we not tell people we are together right away? I would rather not have to deal with the I told you so's right now."
Seto smirks. "Sure. I have to go now puppy. I have to go deal with Mokuba and his furry problem courtesy of Bakura turning him into a kuriboh."
Seto leaves and Jou smiles and sits by the pond for a while.
That's part 2 hope you liked it.
