A/N PLEASE READ! (Edited)
Okay, I saw this and was like hey, I should finish this. Then I read it and I couldn't get passed the first chapter lol (I had to reread to remember what I wrote). I decided that I'm going to rewrite it but I have no idea if I will succeed. I know chapter five was pretty okay so far, but I might have to edit it again to make sure there are no contradictions. (Also deleting chapters as well) I often take forever at editing, so please be patient!
Also yes, this was supposed to be a sequel to another work (puzzleshipping) but I decided to delete it and just rewrite this entirely. (Will have to edit once more when I have the time...)
Changed rating just in case for foul language, etc. I don't know what exactly I'm writing to be honest
Months have passed after the wonderful get together of both Yami and Yugi. Over the course of the few months, no one noticed that Yugi and Yami had actually been dating.
Not that they announced it to the world.
It wasn't until a bright Tuesday morning when Jounouchi took notice of his best friend and his good friend disappearing once in a while but also being distant. This happened for a week longer before they got even more distant. Now if he didn't know any better, he would have thought that they were acting less as friends, but more as acquaintances. They started talking a bit less, which he figured was him overthinking it, and spending less time together, again, he thought he was overthinking the whole situation.
But when the actual topic arose with the gang, without the two there, everyone seemed to notice. But maybe it was just a small falling out? Maybe an argument? Or were they just reading the situation wrong? Was he and the other's over analyzing?
"Whatever," Bakura, who was actually reluctant to join this group of friendship and love, shrugged off the odd feeling, him being one of two people who felt that everyone was reading the situation wrong. "It's not that important anyway."
"Plus, what are we gonna do? Pry into their pretty little lives with the constant asking of questions and... Actually that would be kind of amusing, but I'll be good and just pick on a freshman," YMarik, the second person, spoke rather theatrically before disappearing outside of the classroom and into the hallways.
Seto overheard the little group and their gossip, but thought nothing of it.
Now, 'overheard' seemed like the CEO was being nosy, when in fact he had actually been invited in the group. Of course Yugi being the one to invite him in, but never in a million years would he ever admit that was was indeed a part of Yugi's gang.
Jounouchi got up and started to pace a bit before making up his mind to talk with his best friend. YMarik did have a point though. Pry? Or just... Let it be? He groaned before thinking about the question he would ask his friend. How should he word it? What should he say? Questions popped up left and right before he tugged at his hair, frustrated. He had time, two more class periods before school ended. Okay, yeah, two long, long class periods before-
The bell rang.
Okay, just one class period. It was history. It was a long, boring class about things that transpired in the past. It was always too long for him anyways. He had time to think. He had so much time.
The bell rang again.
Clearly, the class wasn't long enough. He sighed. Jounouchi suddenly felt a tap on the back of his head.
"If you think too hard you might get sick." Oh, he recognized that voice. That arrogant voice that belonged to an equally arrogant looking CEO. Before he could say anything else, the boy had already left. The anger dissipated as quickly as it came when he realized that yes, school was over, he needed to go to his shoe locker and change out of his shoes.
Where he would be directly next to his best friend.
That shouldn't be so hard right?
Jounouchi stood in front of his shoe locker. He took them off, hearing his best friend open his own locker, and leaning down to change his shoes.
'Here goes nothin'.'
"Hey," oh goodness his voice sounded so strained. "Yug'. Yeh, my good friend. You good?"
The boy, visibly confused, smiled.
"Yeah. I'm good." Jounouchi mentally facepalmed. What a stupid question.
"Okay. Um, well uh. So..." Jounouchi faced the boy once he got his shoes on. "Uh, you know..." He sighed. "Okay, so. Are you and Yami good? Like, you both look like y'all are sufferin'. Also, I don't know, you both have also been disappearin' every now and then? I just, concerned. For ya. My good friend." Jounouchi froze.
'That was worse you stupid idio-'
"Oh," Yugi flushed. "You noticed?" Now the blond had no idea if that response was for the first part or the second, but given the circumstance, he'd probably guess the second. Before the blond could say anything, Yugi turned around and walked away.
Then luckily, or maybe not so luckily, the boy spotted Yami out in the distance.
'Great! Let's screw this up even more,' he sarcastically spoke to himself.
"Hey! Yami! My good friend. Yeh. So what's the deal between you and Yug'?" Unlike Yugi, Yami completely froze as if he had been caught doing something he wasn't supposed to. It seemed that he recovered quickly, given how Jounouchi never noticed.
"What do you mean?" He smiled.
"Well-"
Yami's phone rang, which he took as an opportunity to leave. "I have to go Jounouchi. It was nice seeing you!"
And before he could say anything, Yami was gone.
It seemed like everyone just wanted to leave before Jounouchi Katsuya could even say anything.

The next day, Jounouchi walked into the bathroom. He accidentally spilt juice onto his hands and went in to wash his hands.
"Off to a bad start," he muttered to himself. While he was in the bathroom, he figured eh, might as well use it since it was break. His next class was a math class and while he may have disliked the subject, he knew he couldn't fall behind. So he went into a stall before he heard the door open.
"Okay, so you're planning on telling them?" A voice he recognized. It was Yami.
"Well, if not everyone then maybe Jou? He seems to be onto us." Now the blond had no idea if this was a moment to celebrate or be concerned. While he did want to know what was going on, he wanted them to tell him on their own time and not in a forced situation such as this. Despite this, he couldn't move.
"Even if he were onto us, I don't really think we should tell him."
'Just walk outside.'
"I'm not saying tell him every explicit detail, just to tell him that we... I don't know."
'You can do it Jounouchi. Just. Somethin'.'
"I'm not against it, I'm just... Also not for it." There was a pause.
"Are you against telling him because you actually are against it, or are you just saying it because you feel guilty."
"Well-"
"Look, I'm not saying go announce to the world or to Jounouchi, 'hey we had sex. We're dating now'. I just want to, not worry him."
Oh. Oh. OH. Wait WHAT?!
It seemed his own body failed him once he fell in the stall against the door. The two tri colored haired boy's eyes darted to the stall, shocked, embarrassed, scared. They stared as they waited for whoever was in the stall to come out and reveal themselves.
'Well, the cat's out of the bag,' he thought.
So he opened the door.
"Hey guys..."
A/N I did it! I have deleted later chapters to just restart essentially... regardless, I hope you enjoyed! (I finished the last half really late at night so I have no idea if any of it makes sense...)
(I do realize that I am not the best author ToT but I'm trying)
