Chapter 5
It was the next morning after Noa had kissed Misaki. Noa and Seto were waiting outside the restaurant they were meeting Katsuya and Misaki for their breakfast date. They offered to pick them up but both Katsuya and Misaki insisted that they just meet there. They wouldn't explain the reason besides that their neighborhood is unsafe and Noa and Seto would be targets for theft.
Seto looked down at his watch again, 5 mins late, "See we should have picked them. They are five minutes late. What if something happened?" Noa rolled his eyes at Seto and kept on the lookout for their dates. After another minute Katsuya and Misaki bursted through the crowd of people hustling about. The two jogged up to Seto and Noa. Faces fully flushed and breathing a little harder. Both of the Kaiba brothers had to stifle a moan because it was quite the erotic sight.
"Sorry we were late. Had to take a back way here," Katsuya said between breaths. Misaki nodded in agreement, "Yes, we are super duper sorry."
Noa blushed a little at Misaki's outfit. He was use to her wearing the school uniform. But now she was wearing dark blue jean shorts that were held up by a black studded belt. A black low cut t-shirt that showed the right amount of cleavage, a light gray hoodie that was unzipped since it was a bit windy outside. She had black tights on that reaches mid thigh, and a pair of gray high top sneakers. And her hair was up in the usual pigtails she likes to wear. Noa loved her style it reminded him of his own, since he was wearing a white button up t-shirt, leaving the top two buttons undone. He wore black cargo pants and white and black sneakers. He loved simple clothing styles, he had to dress fancy for most of his life, he didn't want to wear them anymore than necessary. The only thing expensive on him was the sliver chain and cross he wore around his neck and that hung about mid chest. Mokuba got it for him last year, as a birthday present. He loved it.
On the other side, Seto was eyeing Katsuya the same way. Katsuya was wearing a plain black t-shirt with a red and black flannel over it. The flannel sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. Light wash jeans and red and black sneakers. His blonde hair in the usual mess. Seto loved it. Katsuya was beautiful on his own, no need for fancy clothing to make him beautiful. No Katsuya's clothing fit him perfectly. Katsuya wasn't trying to impress him with clothing style. He was just being himself and that's what Seto likes the most about Katsuya. The blonde was just being his adorable self. Seto dressed pretty casual today, well at least he felt like he did. Light blue button up shirt that had the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, top two buttons undone, and his ever present locket in the shape of a playing card hanging from his neck. He was sporting tan khaki pants and a pair of black casual shoes.
"Wow you look… You look great Misaki," Noa said as he rubbed his neck and blushes slightly. He really wanted to kiss her again. But they were in public. That wouldn't do. Misaki blushed as well and turned her gaze to the ground, "Thanks Noa… And you… You look good too." "You look good as well Katsuya," Seto said with a small smile. Katsuya gave him a bright smile with a small blush, "Thanks Seto! You look good too."
Noa gave Seto a smirk then went and held the door open with a mock bow, "Shall we proceed then mi Lady?" Misaki gave a giggle and then turned on her mock posh accent, "Yes we shall my good sir." Katsuya was just laughing his butt off as he followed Misaki inside. Seto just smiled and shook his head at his brother's antics.
After getting a booth towards the back, Seto and Katsuya sat on one side while Misaki and Noa sat on the other side. "Alright this is our first time being here as well so don't ask us what's good cause we won't know," Noa said as they looked at the menus. "I just go with what my stomach says," Katsuya said as he looked over the cheap side of the menu. Seto noticed this, "And me and Noa are paying for this meal so get whatever you want. No ifs, ands, or buts." Katsuya blushed heavily as he looked up and over at Seto, "Thanks…" "It's nothing puppy…" Seto said whispering the last part with a blush.
"Ooo Misaki look at this one!" Noa said as he pointed at Misaki's menu. "Blackberry pancakes, topped with whipped cream. Blackberries are my favorite!" Misaki said happily. "Yeah? Their my favorite too… My mom use to grow a blackberry bush out in the backyard. I use to go pick a bunch when she wasn't looking and she would get so mad…" Noa said a bit solemnly blankly looking at his menu. Seto gave him a concerned look. Katsuya and Misaki looked at him with curiosity. Noa looked over to Misaki, their eyes looking in each other for a few seconds before Noa let out a small sigh, "Sorry. I never mentioned this before but… My parents died when I was younger." Katsuya let out a gasp and just stared at Noa. Seto gave the blonde's shoulder a small squeeze to tell him it was ok. Misaki placed her hand on Noa's arm and looked up at him, "Oh Noa… I.. I am sorry. I am sorry for your loss. I know that doesn't mean much but-" Noa cut Misaki off by grabbing her hand and kissing it, "Don't worry. I won't say I am over it because that would be a lie. But it's better. I am better. So don't worry your beautiful self over me." Misaki sport a very deep full face blush, her eyes wide and just staring up at Noa. Seto raised an eyebrow at Noa while Katsuya just watched in fascination.
The rest of breakfast went swimmingly, Misaki and Noa gave each other light touches on the other's hands and arms. Seto to say the least was upset with this. He couldn't understand how Noa was already so far with Misaki. Seto wanted to do the same things and more with Katsuya, to show that he cared and wanted a relationship, not just the blonde's body, which in Seto's opinion was fantastic. But that is not the only thing Seto wants, he wants all of Katsuya. Mind. Body. Soul.
The four were exiting the restaurant when Katsuya looked down at his watch, "We still have a good two hours before we have to head back. Anything else you guy would like to do?" Noa gave Seto a look then grabbed Misaki by the forearm, "Hey Misaki there is this old record store down a few buildings, want to go check it out with me?" Seto raised any eyebrow at Noa. Noa just gave him a smirk. Misaki gave Katsuya a look real quick then looked back to Noa, "Yeah sure, that sounds cool! I wonder if they have any good AC,DC albums or maybe some Queen albums." "Oh man now you're talking Misaki, let's go and check it out. We'll be back later. We'll be waiting here in about two hours," Noa said with a wave as he lead Misaki off towards the mentioned record store. Leaving Seto and Katsuya alone.
Katsuya turned to Seto, big puppy dog eyes, "Hey Seto do you think we can check out this little art shop I seen on our way here?" How could Seto say no to that face, "Alright. Sure. But on one condition." Katsuya raised any eyebrow at Seto, "Ok what?" Seto felt his cheeks heat up a little in a blush as he grabbed the blonde by the hand, "You have to keep ahold of my hand the whole time." This in turn made the blonde blush lightly on the cheeks, "Ok. Yeah. This way." And with that Katsuya lead Seto down the sidewalk towards the little art shop.
People kept giving the pair looks as they passed by. Some filled with shock, even though being gay has been more open in the last few years, it was still shocking to see a gay couple being publicly open. And then other looks were looks of jealousy, from both men and women. Who wouldn't be? Katsuya and Seto were both very attractive guys, and they were together. How unfair.
Katsuya finally spotted the little shop, "Here it is." Seto followed the blonde inside, the little one story building that was nestled between a huge apartment complex and a three story office building. The inside was, interesting to say the least. Seto couldn't find a theme to go to the place. There so many decorations on the walls and the ceiling. Dream catchers hanging in the windows. Paper lanterns hanging along the ceiling. Comic book, mangas, framed photographs, and paintings hanging on the walls in no real particular order or design. There was a potted tree in the corner with Christmas lights and odd ornaments hanging on it. And there was this relaxing smell in the air, Seto couldn't place it though, smelled like apple pie, but also smelled like chocolate chip cookies. Oddly enough, Seto liked it here.
He found Katsuya browsing the art pens and pencils section. He was comparing different brands when Seto tapped him on the shoulder, "Oh hey Seto." "You sure picked a strange place for an art shop." "Yeah, a bit oddly decorated but… Well it just feels good to be in here. No stereotypes in this shop. Everything and everyone is welcomed." Seto raised any eyebrow at Katsuya, at school Katsuya liked to play the big dumb class clown, but Seto knew he was a lot more intelligent than he let's on. "So Katsuya, I never got to ask, but why or how did you get into art?" Katsuya's face turned sad as he kept staring at the boxes of pencils in his hands, "Well, mostly because of my sister." "You have a sister?" Seto watched Katsuya's face carefully. "Yeah, though she is across the country with my mother. My mother took her and left me with my father when I was ten." "What's your sister's name Katsuya?" "Oh her name is Shizuka Kawai. My mother made her take her maiden name. But yeah before they left, me and Shizuka ue to draw and paint all the time. She always said I was good and that I should become a super famous artist when I grow up. Even after they left, Shizuka stills tells me to keep on drawing and painting," Katsuya concluded with a wistful smile on his face. "You miss her huh?" Katsuya looked up at Seto, eyes glimmering with unshed tears. "Yeah I do Seto. I miss her a lot…" The way Katsuya's voice broke and lowered broke Seto's heart. So Seto just let go of his logic for a bit and swept Katsuya into a big hug.
"You know it's ok to cry right?" Seto said and he held Katsuya's head into his chest. There was no words but just a few quiet sniffles and shaking of Katsuya's shoulders to let Seto know what Katsuya answered. After a few minutes of letting Katsuya crying into his chest Seto pulled Katsuya back a bit so they can look each other in the face. Seto swallowed hard, Katsuya's face was still beautiful after crying. Eyes sparkling with tears and emotions, cheeks red, lips swollen, and a few tears running down his cheeks. Seto couldn't stop himself. He kissed Katsuya. And it felt good. Damn good in fact.
Seto poured in all his care and gentleness into that kiss. He wanted to show Katsuya that he cared. It was slow, and passionate but not sloppy. After a minute Seto, reluctantly, pulled away from the kiss. Katsuya's eyes fluttered open and looked up at Seto, with the unspoken question of 'Why?' Seto looked down at Katsuya and pulled him into another hug, "Because I like you and want to show you that I care." And with that Seto and Katsuya stayed like that for a bit, just enjoying each other's company.
