Disclaimer: I don't own anything legally except for this fic you're reading!

As stated in the previous chapter's ending, today you learn about Kaiba's past. It's a reason
that he hasn't told Jou much. If you're sensitive to perversions such as child sex...I suggest you
completely skip this chapter, or the parts dealing with that. Other than that, you get a basket
of limes. Pegasus, who is 24 in the fic, graduated a year behind Kaiba. In the fic, they're best
friends, somewhat like brothers.

Chapter 10: Perverted Past

September 3rd. Today...a different...unusual day. I'm really getting to really know Seto and
the kind of person he is. I know we've been together over 6 months, and I should know him
by now, but they're things that he doesn't know about me either. So it's only fair.

Okaa-san has finally let me start talking back to Seto once again. I'm so happy for that. Now
we don't have to sneak around at La Mer and I don't have to lie anymore.

Thanks Mokuba for all the help.

"Katsuya? Are you sleepy? I know you just got off work."

"No. I'm fine. I just have a lot on my mind right now."

"What is it? You know we can talk about anything."

It's true. Seto knows things about me that I wouldn't dare tell anyone else.

"I was just wandering about you."

"Me? What did I do now?"

My mom says she's seen him around town with other males and females with him. I asked
Seto about them, but he says he's not cheating. I believe him...

"No. It's nothing like that. I'm just wandering about your past is all. I've told you a lot of
stuff about mine."

"You really don't want to hear that."

"Why? Whatever happened in the past is the past. It doesn't change anything."

"Are you sure? I mean it may affect the way you think of me now."

"No. It won't."

He sighs. How bad could it be?

"If you really want to know...then I'll tell."

Yay!

"I haven't always been the popular one. I would pay other people to walk with me, pretending
to be my friend."

"That's not so bad..." I say hesitantly.

"Yea. It was. Noa, who I thought would talk to me and help me through school literally turned
his back on me. With him being much better looking than me, he used to get a lot of attention
from girls. When he would see me, he would act like he didn't. When I confronted him one day
at school, he told me that he doesn't have a brother."

Woah...

"What about Mokuba?"

"Mokuba did what he could for me. He would talk to me sometimes. But other times he was just
like Noa."

That's harsh...

"But isn't your father the head of Kaiba Corp? The three of you should be working together..."

"It doesn't mean anything. You know my father died a few years back. Noa, being the oldest
automatically thought that he was going to get ownership, but at the reading of the will, he left
it to me. That's when everything changed between Noa and I."

"So, what about your ex?"

"Naoki? She was my first true love. My first sexual experience... The first person to capture
my heart."

"You sound as if you want to go back to her..."

"No! I don't! You know better than to say something like that!"

"Heh. Just wandering."

"I didn't meet her until I was 21. I was still a virgin believe it or not."

What?!

"I was still debating on my sexuality because I would have strong feelings towards both
males and females. So anyways, I treated her like a queen...that is until other men used to
answer her cell phone. She would stay out all night without calling or coming back home."

"Coming back home??"

"She moved into the house. Her mother didn't care for her and I together."

Sounds like my mom.

What happened? He's really quiet all of a sudden...

"Something wrong?"

"No...nothing."

"Ok. I want to hear more."

"More..." he says nervously. "I don't think you want to hear more."

"I do. What happened before Naoki?"

"Be...fore...? Ok... to tell you the truth, I'm very perverted."

"I know that Seto."

"No. When I say perverted....I take it to another level."

"Hmm....you've caught my interest."

He laughs nervously. It can't be that bad.

"Since I couldn't get a girlfriend or boyfriend to save my life, I had to jack off a lot."

Ok...

"How is that so bad?"

"It's what I would jack off to."

"Videos? Vouyerism?" What?"

"Both...and something else."

Something else like what?

"Seto, it can't be that bad!"

"I used to look at kids."

"Nani?!" I quickly say.

What kind of sick fool am I involved with?!

"I knew you would react that way. That's why I never told you about my past."

"Seto..."

"I know what you're thinking. No, I'm not like that now. I've changed a lot."

Am I supposed to believe that?! He may be the same way towards Kiyo.

"Katsuya... I told you you wouldn't be able to handle it."

"Yea. I can handle it." I say as normally as possible. "I want to hear more."

"More?! Are you sure you're not perverted?"

"No. Just interested."

"Well...I would babysit kids...and I would play a 'game' with them. By the end of
the game they were naked. I would tell them to lay down. That's when I looked
at them...jacked off to them..."

Officially...perverted. Could he do that with Kiyo?

"I would never do Kiyo that way. That's my own child. My flesh and blood."

"Those kids you looked at were someone's child. Someone's flesh and blood. Why
did you look at them that way?"

"I don't know. Maybe something's not right with me."

I wonder what triggered that thought?

He continued to tell me more about his perverted past...including more about the
children.

"I would touch them...sometimes... Feel their smooth skin, stroke their small, soft
penis, play around their small lower lips and vaginas."

Cheap...perverted thrill.

By this time I'm completely speechless as he continues to talk. Who ever thought Seto
was that way?

One of the richest men in the world...clouded by a dark past...

"Pegasus, my best friend, and I would pay other girls to sleep with us. Or he would just
have sex with someone and I'd watch."

"Vouyerism...."

"Yea. Did that lots of times. I would even sneak and see the girl I was fooling around with.
But videos...I love them. I have my own collection. If memory recalls...you like watching
videos too. Maybe we can get together and check out my collection."

Is he bragging?!

"Ok. No problem. We can do that."

"Don't force yourself to do what you don't want to."

"It's fine Seto. Maybe I can show you my small collection."

"I can't wait."
