Bakura: Here comes the water works.
Seto: Oh come on Leo! Be a little more manly please!
Leo: Shut up! I can have you 'accidentally' hit by a car you know! Bakura: You wouldn't do that so don't threat, you chicken head. You adore both of us too much.
Leo: I hate it when you're right...OKay, on to the finale! Last chapter this one takes place a few months after the first two! And it's mixed POVs!
You Can Say That Again Part 3
(Seto)
I sat in my office waiting for six o'clock to come. Bakura and I were going to a get together the Yugi clan was having. Though we much would have rather gone out alone, just the two of us. We'd already agreed to this, so we couldn't back out and not have it be noticed...You know it'd go something like:
Mutt: Hey Kaiba left! Hey Bakura's gone too!
Yugi: Smiles innocently but says nothing
Otogi: Dude, you don't think-?
Tristan: Oh I always knew they were weird!
Yami: Kaiba's with the thief? I saw that coming. They're perfect for each other, both lowlifes.
everyone laughs, except Yugi who chews them out about it, cause he's the only one with a heart
Now I don't want that. I'm rich, but I don't think even I could get out of mass murder, which is what I would do in a case like that. Of course this meant that Bakura and I had to act normal around them or we'd get a situation like:
Yami: You're with the thief? What's wrong with you Kaiba! You can BUY more than that!
Joey: Yeah man! He's a scum bag, even if there's not much to say about you...I mean you're a scum bag too, but still...
Me: Shut up mutt!
Joey: Who are you calling mutt?
Tea: Oh my god! You're TOGETHER! I never would have though! At top of her lungs
Bakura: Shut up or I'll send you to the god damn shadow realm! Also at top of lungs
Yugi: you guys stop! It isn't right to treat them like this!
Yami: But aibou! He sneers at us It's just so funny to see them together! I'm mean they're both complete creeps, they fit together so well!
Bakura and I: start on a rampage to kill them
This would also be bad. For the very purpose that we would both end up in jail. But either way, we were obligated to go. But even if we could spend real time together there, that didn't mean we didn't have to on the way there.
I stared at the clock as it hit 6:00. I grabbed my coat, the long cool one, and my dueling deck (tch, you know I don't go anywhere without it! So why ask?) and I headed out the door and into the elevator, which would take me to the parking lot floor, where I would proceed into my limo.
I climbed in, directing the driver to pick up my lover. As we pulled up, Bakura came out the door. He locked it quickly and came running toward me, with his white spiky hair flowing behind him.
The light bounced off him and he looked like an angel. No, I'm not hallucinating, did I spell that right? What! I don't use that word often, so don't patronize me! Yes I know what that means! It means to treat in a condescending manner! No, I did not just read that out of a "Webster Illustrated: Contemporary Dictionary". No, I'm not lying morbidly while holding said book.
Okay, moving on! I opened the door and got out. He jumped into my arms and nuzzled his face into my neck. A sign of affection I'd begun to like after these few months.
"Afternoon, baby!" He smiled at me. I'd even gotten used to him calling me things like that. I was actually beginning to like the nick name, Seto-chan.
"You ready to go to a loser's party?" I smirked ass he wrapped his arm around my waist.
"Of course not! But I promised Ryou, and though he gets on my nerves a lot I still try not to totally disappoint him. I don't think it's going to matter though. I'm always going to be, that filthy thief to all his friends."
"You're not to me." I held him closer running a hand through those spiky locks. "Mmm...You smell good."
"New shampoo, I smell like a coconut!" He laughed flashing another smile.
"I wish we didn't have to go but we better get going." I said pulling him into the limo with me.
"Okay, the sooner we get this over with the better." He closed the door and snuggled next to me. It was funny how affectionate we could be, considering everyone thought he was just an evil, vicious, cruel thief.
(Bakura)
I wished I'd never made that stupid promise to Ryou. Of course I wasn't the only one suckered into going. Little Mokuba had sweet talked his big brother into going. So I wouldn't be entirely alone.
Arriving at the location of the loser fest (Yugi's group's little 'get together') we rode up the block a little, to get out and walk, so they wouldn't get all suspicious. It was bad enough Yugi knew. But at least he would keep a secret.
I hated having to pretend there was nothing between us, but I also understood that niether of us wanted the attention from the loser squat that we would, no doubt, get.
"Hey yami! Hitched a ride from Kaiba?" I bit my lip and turned around to see Ryou, with Yami of course.
"Yeah, I was walking and he saw me. I didn't want to walk all that way and he offered a ride..so I took it."
"I'm surprised you even showed up thief. I figured you'd find this not worth your time. After all it's not like you make an effort to befriend anyone. Except maybe Kaiba. But then he didn't want to come either..." Yami smiled with eyes half lidded in amusement. Bastard.
"Shut up you self righteous bastard! I don't hate your 'friends', it's YOU I don't like! And I don't want to be around people who think you're such the great guy, Pharaoh who can do no wrong! That's crap! Now, I've agreed to behave myself, but you have to agree to leave me the hell alone!" I retorted.
"Bakura, don't bother with him. He's just trying to get under your skin. You get used to ignoring it after a while." Seto said, acting like it really didn't matter to him.
"Hey Seto, you brought your cards right?" I smiled as I got an idea.
"Of course, why?" He feigned confusion. He knew EXACTLY what I was getting at.
"Wanna duel? I'm sure it'd be much more intersting than hanging with them. And I'm sure they'd enjoy watching if nothing else." I suggested.
"That might actually be worth seeing." Yami commented from the background.
"You guys are gonna duel?" Joey asked as we entered the game shop.
"Can we watch, mate?" Valon1 asked looking back at us from his spot on the couch, where he was sitting indian style.
"Well Kaiba?"
"Fine, you're on. We need duel disks though, if we're going to have an audience. I don't have one with me." Seto answered.
"I got ya covered!" Joey gave me his duel disk and got another one from Yugi to give to Seto. Oh, this was going to be fun! I wished I'd thought of this earlier when I was sulking about the whole 'party'. It wouldn't be so bad now that I was in the spot light.
"Let's go out back then?" I smiled and we left. Everyone followed, grabbing chairs and stuff. And when I say everyone, I mean EVERYONE! Including the Ishtars, and the Atlanteans the Yugi group came in contact during the uprising of the whole Oricalcos thing.
I passed by one of these said Atlanteans, Dartz, I believe his name was. I couldn't help but blurt out the thought that crossed my mind.
"Wow...How did you get your hair that long? Have you ever cut it?" I expected him to look at me like I was a lunatic. Strange enough he didn't.
"Well, when you're 10,000 years old it's not that hard. And yes." He smiled.
"I know where you're coming from man, though you're 5000 years older than me..."
"Take him down, white haired guy!" I looked over to see the red headed Alister sitting in a lawn chair anxious to see the duel.
"He's still morbidly obsessed with seeing Kaiba lose." the white haired Atlantean shook his head. (yay I'm not the only white haired guy! Ryou doesn't count, because he's more of a girl)
"We all have our quirks. You ready Kaiba?" I grinned stepping out in the middle of the open space.
"I hope you're ready to lose!" He held his arm out as the duel disk beeped and unfolded itself. Mine did the same. We both pushed out decks into the deck dray and began.
"I'll start if you don't mind." I drew a card. " Giant germ in attack mode! One card face down, that ends my turn!"
(Seto)
A giant germ in attack mode and a card face down. A simple move. Tch, that's what you think. He's the one that almost beat Yami during battle city. He was closer to it than I was.
Due to the very fact that you're probably tired of hearing all the intricate details of every battle played, I'll do you a favor an skip to the last turn. What do you mean you think I'm doing it because I don't feel like writing it out? Are you patronizing me? Yes, I like that word...You have a problem with that?
Well...He won..And no, I didn't let him win. He did it on his own. Three darknecrofears boosted to 2500 each, plus the points I lost from attacking giant germ...He strung me along like he did to Yami, but at least he was merciful, he gave me the chance to forfeit. I didn't, but he gave me the opportunity.
"YEEEEESSSSS! Go white haired guy!" Alister, annoying biker who kinda looks like a chick, cheered. He hated me even though I never did anything to him.
"His name's, Bakura." Rafael said in the deep monotone voice of his.
"I didn't reem you too badly, did I Seto?" He looked at me cutely.
"I'll win next time." I reply giving him a hidden look.
"Looks like the thief stepped above you Kaiba." Yami sneered. "Maybe this means you'll stop challenging me all the time."
"Leave him alone, Pharaoh! It was just a friendly game." Bakura spat, not liking the way Yami was talking to me.
"Yeah, you like to ruin people's fun don't you, pharaoh?" Marik commented...Uh oh.
"What's it to you Marik!"
"Stop it guys!" Yugi tried to coax, but the fight broke out and there was nothing he could do.
Bakura and Yami were trying to claw through the people holding them back to get to each other.
"Stop this nonsense!"
"Marik, you're not supposed to be helping Bakura! You're supposed to be stopping him!" Malik called to his crazy yami.
"I don't care if Ryou likes you! I don't! You never have anything nice to say to me! And I haven't even done anything! And you wonder why I hate you!" Bakura rampaged.
"Child...I'm warning you. If you don't quit this idiocy I'm going to make you wish you hadn't started to begin with. We're not here to watch you act like grudge holding fools." Dartz, who's really not that bad a guy now (He's got a good vocabulary too and he still creeps me out), warned to Bakura, then Yami.
"I'd listen if I were you." Christ, his little daughter (who's really over 10,000 years old..) commented. Iron heart nodded.
Bakura kept thrashing as well as Yami. I heard a low growling, that wasn't coming from Bakura. I knew what that sound was...It was hell breaking loose.
Before either of them had a clue what was going on they were both kissing the floor. Then they found themselves headlocked by a certain white haired Atlantean...
"Now, you will both behave...Am I correct?" he asked and they both nodded their heads quickly. Not wanting to face the wrath of Dartz...
I went over to retrieve my lover, who was shaking his head of the shock that was apparent on his face.
"Man...I hope I'm that alert when I'm that age..." He said to me.
"I heard that."
"Sorry." He said sheepishly, as he looked over his shoulder to see two gold eyes staring at him.
"Now do behave, I'm getting too old to babysit children that aren't mine." Not that you could really tell he was any older than 30...
Everything became sorta peaceful again. I kept Bakura as far away from Yami (of course not too close to me) as I possibly could. Not that I cared for Yami's safety, he could hang himself from a cliff for all I care, it was Bakura I didn't want to get hurt. Whether by Yami or the crazy long haired one...
(Bakura)
"So, you and Kaiba do anything interesting yet?" Marik asked popping up next to me. I nearly jumped.
"Marik! Why do you do that!" I shrieked. I then took a second to actually comprehend the question. "Gah!" I blushed profusely.
"Oh my ra, you did!"
"Shut up Marik!" I whispered harshly, ready to knock his lights out.
"Well come on, spill! What'd you do? I bet he looks good under all those clothes."
I found my mind begin to wander, then I mentally and physically smacked myself. "Stop! You weirdo! I'm not talking to YOU about that! I'd talk to Malik about it before you!"
"Oh?" I turned to see Malik standing there. "And what was with leaving us the bill! Do you know the hell we went through to pay for that?"
"That's the price of following me." I glared at him.
"Oh please! You owe us now! So..what happened with you too?" Malik asked.
"You are freaks you know that? I'm not telling you crap! What he and I do on our own time is none of your business!" Which was said very loudly, which drew much attention to myself.
"Yami, you're with someone?" Ryou looked over at me as a blush dominated my face.
"I..uh..."
"Well who is is Bakura?" Joey smiled at me.
"That's great Bakura!" Yugi bounced. I don't think he could possibly hate anyone or thing...I don't think it's possible. I'm supposedly his 'enemy' as pharaoh puts it, but he has no problem treating me like his friend.
"Who'da thought..." Tea, annoying bitch she is, smiled.
"I think it's great! Hopefully it's easier for him than it is for me," Mai conversed with Tea. I could understand her dilema, she had Valon constantly after her...But at least Joey wasn't anymore.
"So who is it yami?" Ryou asked biting off a piece of celery.
"I'd rather not say," I laughed nervously.
"Oh come on, it can't be that bad!"
"Just leave him alone, if he doesn't want to say, he shouldn't have to." Seto saved me. God I love him.
"Oh please, I'm sure you're at least a little curious yourself." Yami rolled his eyes.
"No, I'm not, because I know who it is, so leave him alone." Several gasps were heard after that. Only Malik, Marik, Mokuba and Yugi (I assumed he knew) didn't make any sort of surprised gasp.
"You know? What'd you spy on him? I have a hard time believing the thief would confide in you of his own accord. Did you black mail him? That's the only reasonable thing I can think of," the pharaoh stated shocked.
"I hate to agree..." Joey mumbled. "But I think he's right. It wouldn't surprise me if you were stalking him."
I could tell Seto was getting angry...And I forsaw our secret being blown before we left...
I hate when I'm right, but part of me wanted it.
"Look you assholes..." Seto started, clearly biting his tongue so as not to curse in front of the kids: Mokuba and Christ. "I'll have you know the reason I know who it is, is because I'M WHO HE'S WITH, YOU DAMN LOSERS!"
I felt a blush creep across my cheeks.
"If you've got a problem with that then you can all go to hell!" Being unsuccessful at sensoring himself.
Everyone was too speechless to say anything.
I, unable to stop myself, walked over to him. I leaned against him and pulled him into a heated kiss. I don't know what made me do it, but I couldn't stop myself.
He fell into it, quickly losing his anger as our tongues intertwined. We completely ignored what everyone around us was doing. Despite common knowledge, he really was quite a sensitive guy.
He wrapped in arm around my waist, his other hand finding itself running through my hair. I loved the sensation I got when he kissed me like that. I felt alive. I mean emotionally alive. I knew he really loved me. And I couldn't be happier.
(Seto)
I opened my big mouth. I got quite a kiss out of it, but that's not the point.
"Well it's about time."
We broke apart very quickly and looked at Yami, the owner of the voice that spoke that comment.
"What do you mean, 'it's about time'?" I looked at him suspiciously.
"WE been all waiting patiently for the two of you to just announce it. As if we couldn't tell what was going on...I mean Bakura's been unusually...happy and you've been acting like a love sick pup. Once you put two and two together, it makes sense." He smiled.
"Then why all the questioning?" Bakura asked as confused as I.
"To piss Kaiba off," Joey smiled, "cause we all know he's got a quick temper." I growled ready to know the blonde's lights out.
"Don't be mad yami..." Ryou spoke softly, "they had some help."
"Ryou! It's bad enough you helped Seto's plan before, when all you really had to do was tell him to talk to me! Now you're setting us up like this? Oh ra, Ryou!" Bakura scowled.
"Wait! You knew about that?" I asked sheepishly, a very uncharacteristic thing of me to do.
"Of course. Ryou's got a big mouth. There's nothing he keeps from me."
"Oh..." I looked down.
""I'm not mad at you, that was months ago, but I am mad at the rest of you!" He glared at the others.
"Oh come on, you two would never have said anything about it on your own!" Malik grinned leaning against his yami.
"What's your point?" I growled, getting irritated.
"Be happy, will you?" Mutt said, "Finding love is not something to be ashamed of!"
"Yeah, well it doesn't help when you all seemed to hate us anyways..." Bakura sighed.
"Child, do you know what assumming does?" Dartz smiled lightly looking at both of us. Damn it, he was in on this too! God, these people spare no expense when trying to get information out of people...Bastards. "It makes you look like complete asses. Now quit being fools and get back to sucking face with eachother!"
"Papa!" Christ gasped, along with everyone else. The guy who has the most class of all of us just spoke from the tone of a teenager and made it work...That deserves an applaude people.
"What? I can't be politically correct all the time!"
I looked back at Bakura. He looked at me. Ignoring the cheers and whistles, I kissed him again and loved every second of it...I pulled back a minute or two later.
"Come live with me," I whispered into his ear.
"Okay," He replied snuggling into my arms and resting his head on my shoulder.
"That's what I'm talking about!" I looked over at Mutt, who was cheering like an idiot. His stupid smile did not fade either.
"Let's go koi." i whispered to the white haired god in my arms. "We'll see you obnoxious losers later," I spoke mainly to Joey. I mean, though some of the others are losers too, Joey is like god of all losers!
"Now that's our Kaiba." Yami smirked.
"Seto! Can I stay for a while?" Mokuba looked up at me.
"As long as you call Roland to pick you up. I will not have you walking around Domino at night." I answered.
"I'll bring him home." Dartz offered. I had to think about that one for a second...Did I really want the guy who took my soul, driving my little brother home? Wait...take my soul? I'm starting to sound like Yami! Tch! Take my soul! Yeah right! No, I'm NOT doubting myself! Shut up!
"You can drive!" Everyone else said in unison.
"You people have very little faith in me don't you? I'm old, not incapable!" Again if you were to look at him you'd say, old...what is 30 considered old now? And even that might be pushing how old he looks. More like 20...But he DOES have a daughter between 10 and 13 looking...So I'd doubt him to be 20.
"As long as he comes back with his soul, It's okay." Mokuba smiled from ear to ear.
"You're never going to let that one go are you?" He huffed, which looked funny on him.
"I think you can answer that question on your own."
"Modern day children and your lack of respect!"
"Oh don't feel offended, he's like that to everyone, except me of course!" Bakura smiled.
"Okay, then let's get outta here."
"Yeah I have to get packing!" Bakura grinned excitedly.
"Oh, to hell with that! I'll buy you what you need!" Bakura erupted in a fit of laughter as I picked him up and carried him through the gameshop, toward the outside door.
"I love you Seto..." He murmered against my chest.
"Glad to hear, because you're stuck with me now and I'm not letting you go either."
"Don't worry about me leaving, I'll die first."
"Good. You know I love you right?" I nestled my face into his hair and smiled as he nodded. "So, now what do you say we go get you aquainted with your new home...and maybe draft out a way to get back at those dorks?"
"Oh, that sounds good! Lead the way baby!"
Theeeee End!
Leo: well I think that's the end of it. But now that I'm done I can work on my SetoxBakuraxYami fic.
I posted some fanart with Seto and Bakura in them on my account at Media miner, I have a link to it on my proflie page, check it out if you're interested! Tell me what you think!
1Dartz, Valon, Alister, Rafael Ironheart and Christ are from the doom sga. I personally like these characters. If you want more info on these people or on the Doom saga go to where you can read over each episode and get screen shots to go with it. It's good enough information that you'll be able to have 'seen' the series, with out actually watching it.
