Love Lies

Out of the Blue

*I don’t own Scooby Doo (Thanks Tristan! *authoress sticks out tongue*)

Ryou stuffed his hands in his pockets and shivered from the cool night breeze as he and Yugi
walked.

“Ryou? Are you not telling me something? Did Joey say something else? You’ve got that look
on your face-the same one you had when Tristan gave you that wedgie at Serenity’s birthday
party.”

Ryou’s cheeks grew five shades of red.

“Don’t remind me Yugi, that was not a pleasant night.”

Yugi hung his head and started walking again.

“That was the night Joey and I -you know...gods-it was so.....amazing.

Ryou wasn’t quite sure how to react to Yugi statement. He scratched his head nervously as he
followed Yugi. Yugi continued talking without waiting for Ryou’s response; lucky for Ryou.

“I feel so bad Ryou. I didn’t want to break up with Joey, but Yami made me. You know what
makes it worse? He wouldn’t tell me why! I can’t stand his Ra-damned secrets!”

Ryou rolled his eyes and laughed lightly.

“At least you don’t wake up in a pool of your own blood.”

Yugi stopped and looked at Ryou curiously.

“What are you saying? Is Bakura back?”

Ryou continued walking without acknowledging Yugi’s question.

“Hey look, there’s a squad car with it’s lights flashing in front of the pizza place. I wonder what
happened!”

Yugi shrugged his shoulders,

“I don17;t17;t know, let’s check it out!”

Yugi and Ryou ran the rest of the way to the pizza place and stopped just feet away from the cop
car. They ducked behind a line of garbage cans where they had a birds eye view of the goings on.

Moments later, 2 officers walked out, followed by Joey and Seto.

Ryou and Yugi looked at each other in total shock.

The shorter officer seemed to be talking the most.

“I’m very sorry Mr. Kaiba, this won’t happen again.”

The officer than turned to the other officer and shook his finger.

“You’re just a rookie, so I’ll let you off. Just this once though! Mr. Kaiba is a very generous
donor to our department, and we can’t risk losing any more funding!”

The taller rookie cop shook his head.

“Yes sir, I’m sorry, sir.” He turned to Seto and lowered his head. He couldn’t look Setoin the
eyes.

“I’m very sorry Mr. Kaiba-sir, your highness........”

The s cop cop smacked the rookie over the head with his hat and glared.

“Let’s just get the hell out of here Gibson.”

“Yes Sir” the rookie cringed as they got into the cruiser.

Yugi and Ryou stayed still as Joey threw his arms around Seto, who happened to be carrying a
pizza.

“Kaiba! That was awesome! You told them coppers right where to go!”

Kaiba caught the pizza, stopping it from splattering on the ground, and grinned pompously at
Joey.

“I got this city by the balls”

Yugi’s jaw dropped as Joey pressed his lips against Seto’s.

An involuntary whimper came out of his throat. Ryou held his finger to his mouth and watched
on.

“There’s no way I’d let my puppy go to the slammer.” Kaiba smiled as he deepened the kiss.

Joey wrapped his arms around Seto’s neck and moaned into their kiss. Seto glanced at the
ground as he cleverly dropped the pizza box onto the pavement.(It landed just perfect, the pizza
didn’t fall out) He wrapped his arms around Joey’s waist and pulled their hips together.

Tears streamed down Yugi’s cheeks.

Ryou looked over and realized how much pain Yugi must be feeling. He instinctively reached
over and took his hand. Yugi bit his lip to stop himself from making any noise.

“We better not make a scene, they might call the cops on us” Joey chuckled.

Seto rolled his eyes.

“Wise ass. Fine, we’ll go”

Seto cracked a sly grin as he smacked Joey across the ass playfully.

Ry">Ryou squeezed Yugi’s hand as they watched Seto and Joey got into a black Ferrari and drove off.

After Seto and Joey were far down the street, Ryou and Yugi got out from behind the garbage
cans.

Yugi fell down to his hands and knees and broke down crying.

Ryou kneeled down and put his arms around Yugi.

“I’m sorry Yugi”

“Joey.........Kaiba.......” Yugi coughed.

Ryou rubbed Yugi’s back compassionately.

“Let’s skip pizza and go back to your place.”

Yugi nodded his head as he wiped away a few tears.

Ryou helped Yugi up and started walking him back toward the game shop.

*****************************************************************

            Tristan groggily walked down the stairs in his *Scooby Doo boxers carrying a pair of
jeans.

Malik walked in the front door looking like a mess and smelling like a brewery.

Tristan made a sour face at him.

“Malik, what the hell, man? It’s 3am! Don’t tell me you’re drunk again.”

Malik leaned against the open door frame for support, drooling slightly from the corner of his
mouth.

“How’d I get here?” Malik slurred.

Tristan pulled his jeans on and rushed over to Malik.

“Damn dude, you’re fucking wasted! We’d better get you into bed, man.”

Malik hiccupped and started to sway slightly.

“I don’t feel so good” he groaned as he leaned all his body weight onto Tristan.

Tristan let out a sigh as he lead Malik up to the bathroom.

“What the hell’s gotten into lately? This is the 10 time you’ve coome ome drunk this week! And
it’s only Wednesday!”

Malik didn’t reply. He’d already passed out on Tristan’s shoulder.

“Idiot” Tristan grumbled as he turned on the light in the bathroom.

He laid Malik on the floor and turned him on his side.

“Whatever you do, don’t barf on the floor. I refuse to clean up your messes.”

“Tristan??? Are you back with my cottage cheese and donuts already?” Isis yelled from their
bedroom.

Tristan cringed as he closed the bathroom door.

“No sweety, you’re good for nothing brother is drunk again and I had to help him up the stairs.”

“Oh, okay, please hurry with my food though, okay?”

“Yes dear” Tristan sighed as he hurried back down the stairs.

“And don’t forget the chocolate chips!” Isis added.

Tristan grabbed his jacket, put on his shoes, and ran down the street to the 24 hour grocery store.

It only took him a few minutes to find the things Isis’s requested. He walked casually up to the
only open check out counter and set the things down. He looked at a magazine as the girl rang up
his bill.

“That’ll be seven dollars and 35 cents......Tristan.”

Tristan looked up from the magazine and smiled.

“Oh hey Serenity! Since when did you work here?”

Serenity smiled brightly.

“Since tonight. I just started.”

She started bagging the items for Tristan, and noticed the strange assortment.

“Chocolate chips and cottage cheese? Are you feeling okay?” she chuckled softly.

Tristan rolled his eyes.

“This stuff is for Isis, I don’t think I could stomach it if I tried.”

Serenity began to giggle, making Tristan smile.

“You know, you have such a cute laugh.”

Serenity started to blush.

“Thank you”

She handed Tristan his bag of groceries, purposely causing their hands to touch.

They both paused for a moment, not wanting to break contact.

“Uh.......I better get back home. Isis is gonna be pissed off as it is. See you around Serenity”
Tristan smiled nervously. He held the bag of groceries in front of his pants so hide the obvious
reaction he was having to seeing Serenity again.

“Bye Tristan, hope to see you soon!” Serenity smiled back as he left the store.

            Tristan rushed back home as fast as he could. He rather to risk falling on his ass over the
wrath of eight months pregnant, hormonal as hell, pissy as a bitch, Isis Ishtar.

**Tristan’s POV**

            I hope Isis is sleeping when I get back. I hate when she gets all bitchy at me the the
stupidest little shit. I can’t believe her sometimes. Why she jumped my ass last night about
working too much overtime, I’ll never know. She didn’t start getting annoying until Malik
moved back in. Ever since he came back for god knows where, doing god knows what, Isis has
been on edge. I wish she’d just kick him out, but she gives me the same excuse every time, “He’s
my blood, I can’t do that.” Fuck him. Malik can go crawl back under the rock he grew under.
He’s nothing but a spoiled, smart mouth, punk.

Oh shit. Our bedroom light is on. I hope Malik didn’t wake Isis up or something!

**End Tristan’s POV**

***************************************************************************

Bakura watched quietly through the eyes of his hikari as they walked up the steps to the game
shop. Yugi’s eyes were puffy from crying, ans sks skin pale.

“Yami will be waiting. He’s gonna be so mad.” Yugi sobbed as he reached for the door knob.

Ryou put his hand over Yugi’s.

“I’ll go in with you.”

//Perfect!// Bakura laughed evilly to himself.
