To Keep A Katsu

Mille Istar Motou: *wriggles uncomfortable from the chains* Good lord, what have I gotten myself into?! Forget Shizuka, you both need help!

Lol, I thought Jou’s cockiness was actually funny to me, because nothing is more frustrating when you’re mad as hell and the person you’re actually mad at has better control of his/her emotions and the situation! Makes you feel like a 5 year old to an adult! But either way, you have to forgive our idot blond seme….he’s just being…well Jou!

“Mmm, this gourmet pizza is delicious, Kat-chan! You should try some, and its pepperoni, your favorite!” Shizuka squeals excitedly as she cuts and takes another piece onto her fork.

“I’m not hungry, sis…” Jou trails off as he once again glance out of the restaurant window staring into the busy streets of New York City.

Some random guy almost gets hit by a cab trying to jay walk across the street. The blond of course couldn’t hear the conversation but most likely the driver, who had just gotten out of the yellow car, is now cursing the visibily shakened and frustrated man out. It was kind of funny, and normally he would’ve laughed. However, lips never even curve into a humorous smirk since now nothing ever makes him smile or laugh anymore…

“Kat-chan, you must eat something! You haven’t eaten a thing since we arrived here to New York” the strawberry blonde exclaims putting a slice of pizza on her brother’s empty plate.

Giving a quick nod, Jou takes a bite but he found it incredibly hard to swallow. Especially when constant memories, either in a restaurant or at home, of his angel cutting pizza slices into those funny little triangles he loves and fork-feeding him. He could even feel the tiny pecks and licks of soft lips and tongue cleaning off his cheek that would occasionally get dirty with the tomato sauce.

Force swallowing the bite he had taken, he gently pushes his plate away.

“Gomen, but I really can’t eat” the hazel-eyed teen replies, leaning back in his chair.

Shizuka remains silent for a moment; she now realizes that bringing her brother here with her is useless if a certain blue-eyed bastard keeps plaquing his mind. Somehow, she must make her Kat-chan forget him and those Domino City fags….

“I understand” the green-eyed maiden drawls, still thinking. “We’ll just leave this place and go home. I’m sure we can find plenty of things to do there.”

“Yeah…I think ya place sounds good right about now” Jou mutters, solemnly. An oblivious happy gay couple walks by hand in hand. The blond growls lowly as he glares them down, hoping they would burst into flames. Why can’t THEY be the ones to cross the street in front of that taxi…and actually get hit? He would’ve laughed, because THAT would have been funny!

“No, Kat-chan! It’s OUR home! Stop saying it’s mine or mom’s” Shizuka half-whines but suddenly pipes up. “Wait! On second thought…let’s continue on touring New York City! Maybe if you remember just how heavenly it is, you won’t feel so down!”

“Iie, I just wanna go back ta mom’s!” the blond whines, annoyed. He admits, being back in New York is thrilling, but no place on Earth would be heaven without an angel – HIS angel. Everything is just pure hell to him right now.

“It’ll be fun, I promise!” the strawberry blonde chirps aloud as she jumps up and grabs her reluctant brother back by the arm.

Rolling his hazel-eyes, Jou let’s himself be pulled out the restaurant…it’s going to be a long day.

Sighing as he gets into the limo, the blond gives a small smile to himself as a wave of nostalgia washes upon him again.

How many times have he made love to his angel in a limo? Heh, he wouldn’t know but the cheaffeaur sure as hell might!

Chuckling, Jou looks out through the tinted windows wondering about a dashing pair of blue eyes that will forever invade his dreams.

“Seto…”

***

A pale hand runs a course through thick brunet hair in frustration. Eyebrows furrow closer to azure eyes in concentration…

“Fuck…” Kaiba then sighs out as he completely relaxes his facial features and slumps heavily into his big corporate chair.

The truth behind Shizuka’s alledged suicide attempt still rings fresh in his mind but how in the hell could he use that to his advantage? How could you prove such a thing? It’s obvious that Shizuka is a mental wrench but to prove that she’s also using her disorder to purposely manipulate others is almost impossible. It’s not like he can run to Jou screaming that his sister is a conniving bitch! Yea that will turn out great…and besides he doesn’t even know exactly where his blond Adonis is in New York, not even a phone number…

Shit! The brunet rubs his face in another bout of irritation. Nuclear physics problems are a hell of a lot easier than this!

Suddenly his secretary beeps in…”Kaiba-sama, you have a visitior that didn’t schedule an appointment, but is adamant about seeing you.”

A voice floats from the background comes to pale ears.

“Looky here, girlie! You wouldn’t have known if I’s schedule an appointment or not when all’s you do is sit here, paint ya nails, and talk on da phone! And what’s with ya fast girls and all of dat make-up! It ain’t cute! Men don’t wanna date Ronald McDonald! Lord, I’m tellin ya….”

The brunet CEO gasps.

Mother Miki?!

Recovering from the initial shock from it all, Kaiba responds tersely.

“Send her in.”

Shortly afterward, the door slowly opens revealing the old lady.

Kaiba immediately gets up to help his boyfriend’s grandmother across the room and into a seat in front of his desk.

“Thank you, baby. Dat bus ride can do a lot ta dis ole’ bones.” Mother Miki replies with a cackle.

“Well I make sure you get home a lot more safely than that.’ Kaiba said, grinning. He couldn’t help it; he really liked the old woman.

“Oh and I made ya a batch of dese, mah grandson had told me how much ya liked dem!” the senior Jounouchi replies taking out a plastic container of sweet biscuits.

Did he say that he like her? Nah, he meant he LOVED her!

“Arigatou Gozaimasu!” the brunet exclaims as he wastes no time in opening the container and making his way back behind the desk. Within the short time since his Katsu-chan had left for New York, Seto really had been indulging himself in sweets, A LOT of sweets, especially chocolate. He had eaten three chocolate filled doughnuts and a chocolate expresso for breakfast and for lunch right before Mother Miki’s arrival had eaten two slices of double fudge chocolate cake along with his sandwich. He even popped a couple of Hershey kisses in his mouth throughout the day. It’s getting to the point that it’s alarming his ototo and the whole kitchen staff. All well, he could certainly use the weight anyway…

“So why are you gracing me with your presence?” Seto asks around a mouthful of the savory treat.

Chuckling, “You really are an adorable boy, I can see why Jou-Jou is so crazy ova ya!” the crafty woman replies before things turned serious. “Speaking of mah grandson, I heard about what happened. How are ya really doin sweetie?”

Swallowing, the blue-eyed teen stares into apologetic eyes. “I don’t know.” He croaks out truthfully. “It just…hurts.”

Mother Miki nods in understanding before she speaks. “I understand. Tatsuya isn’t doin too well either. Nearly dranked himself ta death when I visited him. Couldn’t even remembah who I was.”

The brunet wrinkles his face in concern, “He’s going to be ok right?”

The old woman hums a bit before responding, “He’ll be just fine dearie, mah otha son decided to stay here longah ta watch him.”

Seto nods but said nothing. He puts another biscuit in his mouth in thought.

“Mah granddaughter had really did a number on ya hasn’t she? I knew dat girl had something missing upstairs but nevah did pin her as some killah. You throat’s healing ok?”

The CEO nearly chocks over the bread in his mouth. He quickly grabs a bottle of water that was conveniently placed on his desk and drinks with urgency.

“How did you…” he then sputters out.

“I know a lot child and dat’s da reason why I’m here. You want to get mah grandson back don’t ya?”

“H-Hai…” the brunet replies quietly, still in shock.

Mother Miki shifts a bit in her chair. “I maybe old but I’m not yet senile. I noticed a lot at dat family reunion...the girl needs help and I’m not sayin with pills, therapy and compromises because we all know how well dat worked out. I mean with a good ole fashioned ass-whooping. Back in mah day, you’re only insane if ya go against ya motha and her belt. It angers me some much how dat ex-wife of mah son had been treating her after all of dese years. Spoiling her when what she needed is a stern hand. Things had only gotten dis out of control because she was ALLOWED ta do it. Too busy making excuses, she’s sick, she has dis and she has dat. No what she has is common sense because she knows what she’s doing! If you can attempt murder ta a high-ranking business man and all you get fer punishment is looney pills and even MORE attention and coddling, den why stop? She ain’t dat crazy!”

Seto snickers as he once again engulfs another sweet biscuit.

“Then I hear dis nonsense about her trying to commit suicide, her life is too damn good! She has the world wrapped around her fingers, not even Jou-Jou can cause her to take her own life! Especially when she got him wrapped her pinky! I knew it was a bunch of bull when I heard it! Ain’t nothin’ but da devil” the wise woman rants angrily shaking her head.

“That’s exactly what she did! She scared Jou into going to New York with her. She used the concept from her own movie to do it!” the brunet exclaims excitedly but then he immediately calms down. “But dat doesn’t mean I can get Katsu back…I don’t know what to do…” His head droops down in semi-defeat.

A wrinkled head reaches forward to grasp a chin and lifts handsome features back up.

“Now, now. Don’t get too hasty, mah boy. I haven’t yet finished saying what I came here to say.” Mother Miki consoles with a soothing voice before sitting back into her chair.

“Tatsu likes to talk in his drunken stupor. I stayed over his house last night along with mah otha son. Apparently, he and Leiko isn’t exactly what they seem to everyone else. They’ve actually been keeping in touch A LOT with each other during the course of da years.”

“They…They’re still in love…with each other?” Seto exclaims in disbelief.

Chucking, “Very much so…and they’ve done a very good job of hiding it. They would never make phone calls to each other in their household; usually it’s somewhere else like at a friend’s or through emails and instant messaging. Occaisonally, Leiko would be bold enough to send letters…” with that the senior Jounouchi pulls out an empty envelope as she stands up.

“I can’t tell ya what ya should do, but I can certainly send ya inta da right direction.” Mother Miki grabs a pale wrist and firmly places the envelope into a stiff hand.

Curiously, Seto turns the empty envelope over to see pretty cursive handwriting…handwriting that used words and numbers to form addresses…the one in the left hand corner indeed pinpoints an exact location in a certain American city.

Looking back up, the brunt sees that his surrogate grandmother had half-way made it to the door.

“Now, who should I see about dat limo, baby” the cunning old woman replies with a smirk.

Smirking back, Seto gets his secretary’s attention through the intercom. “Suu-san, please have Roland escort our guest home safely.”

“Arigatou and be careful. Stay sweet, ya hear?” with that, Mother Miki makes her way out the door.

She didn’t even make it halfway out the hall when she hears a stern voice resonating from the location she had just left from.

“Konnichiwa, Taki-san. I was wondering how soon you can get one of my jets ready…”

Satisfied and smirking to herself, the old woman hums a tune as she continues to walk further away.

@@@ Pale hands splays themselves over a wall as tanned hands find their way to a hip.
“Kami, Katsuuu! You’re so good!” Seto pants out as the blond rocks his inner core with a particular powerful thrust.

“Heh, I aim ta please, angel…”Jou whispers seductively as he makes the body beneath him squirm once again. He leans over to capture an earlobe in his mouth as his right hand traces a prominent vein on his lover’s hard, silky member.

The blue-eyed moans out as he pushes back hard against the next incoming thrust. He also reaches down to join a hand that was already there. Soon both hands begins to pump eargerly, which combined with what’s being done to a certain asshole, makes the brunet’s milky thighs quiver in the wake of orgasm that’s bound to be soul-wrenching.

“Almost there…” The blond whispers in the ear he was currently tonguing.

With eyes screw shut, Seto trembles before screaming out. “KATSUYA!” @@@


Golden strands of hair flies everywhere, as Jou abruptly snaps up from his bed.

The blond takes a minute to calm his erratic breathing as he runs his hand through his hair. He then turns a shaky head towards the fancy looking alarm clock on the bedside table. It read 12:34 a.m.

“Shit…if dat didn’t felt real” the hazel eyed teen mumbles as he looks down to the wet evidence in his boxers

A string of curses erupts from his mouth as he stumbles out of bed and puts on his jeans that lay unceremoniously on the floor, he didn’t even bother to zip them up. He then heads to the door which seems to be miles away in the huge room.

Strolling out into the hall, he wonders aimlessly looking for a bathroom. He will never figure this place out. The bathroom to room ratio is utterly ridiculous! Doesn’t this side of his family ever take a shit?

Sighing, he lets his mind wonder to what happen over the course of today. No matter where his sister would take him, something would always remind him of his angel. It had gotten so bad that he had broken down right in the middle of Madison Square Garden, bawling his eyes out. Blubbering about how some random building had reminded him so much of Kaiba Corp and how he half-expected to go there and see his angel. Needless to say, his sister had took him straight home after that and he had been in the bed ever since.

“I can’t believe I didn’t think of it before! I could’ve been here a lot sooner!”

Jou freezes in mid-stride as he finds himself nearing the voice coming from the slightly ajar door up ahead. Shizuka…now he can ask how to get to a gah-damn bathroom….


“Yea well even though I really prefer for Kaiba Seto to be in a tiny little box underground…I guess it was just as good…” the strawberry blond replies loudly into her cellphone.

A prissy sounding voice raises itself from the receiver.

“Don’t get too ahead of yourself! You’ll get your date with my brother. After all, it’s best if we can deter him away from his filthiness! So look your very best whenever the time comes. But you are right; my brother is so charming and the fact that he’s so gullible too! Faking that suicide attempt worked like a charm! But anyway, did you see the new movie trailer? You played Jessica so…”

SMACK!

The sleek silver phone slides a few feet on the carpetless floor, until it rests not too far from the fireplace up ahead.

“Shizuka! Shizuka! Are you there? Shizuka?” A tanned hand grips the phone in a deathlock has it slowly lifts off the floor.

“Sorry, da line you have reached is now disconnected”, spats an accented voice before the phone once again hits the floor…this time in pieces.

Green eyes widen in surprise and fear, as Shizuka grabs her redden face where her brother had just backhanded her. She stares into pain-filled teary eyes that at the same time reveal absolute anger.
She suddenly jumps back in her chair as her rabid-looking brother moves forward.

The brunt force that the strawberry blonde had applied to the chair causes it and her to fall heavily onto the floor with resonding thud.

“How dare you…HOW DARE YOU!” Jou shrieks as he moves a litte faster to his prey.

“K-Kat-chan, please…I-I can explain…really!”

The blond laughs harshly as he clenches his fists harder. “Explain…Ha! Yes, please explain yourself ta dis filthy, gullible fag!”

“Has your sister, I just wanted whats best for…” the red-head maiden responds shakily as she gets up.

“SHUT DA FUCK UP!” Jou lunges forwards as his large hands find purchase around a fair slender neck. “Ya think killing off mah boyfriend and giving mah friends hell is whats best for me! Having me scared ta death so ya can trick me to comin here. HAVE YOU NO IDEA WHAT ITS LIKE TO SEE YOUR LOVER’S HEART BREAK RIGHT IN FRONT OF YA EYES WHILE YOU’RE MAKING LOVE TO HIM!”

The blond tightens his grip and shakes brutally, not caring if greens eyes were slowly making its way towards the back of a head.

“K-Kat-Kat…ya chocking….me….stop…” Shizuka croaks out weakly. “You’re….killing me!”

“FUCK YOU BITCH! AS FAR AS I’M CONCERNED YOU’RE ALREADY DEAD TA ME…DEAD...I don’t have….have….a sistah…” Jou sobs out as he continues to shake the form that was slowly going limp.

Suddenly five huge men in black suits coming rushing in.

“What with all the noise…!” Wayne begins to demand but then he saw the scene before him. “SHIT, MISS SUMMERS! GET HIM OFF!

The four heavy set men quickly grab the distraught boy and begin to hoist him up. Wayne had to get involved as he desperately tries to pry the stiff fingers away.

Jou in frustration, reluctantly let’s go but not before he made sure that his former sister’s face made a satisfying crack against the floor.

A huge fist makes itself snug in a tanned abdomen as two of the four men begin to beat upon the broken blond.

Slowly, Shizuka raises her face off the floor, coughing and sputtering as she raises her left hand to her bleeding nose.

“Do more than dat…MAKE HIM REGRET EVER FUCKING A GAH-DAMN MAN!” she rasps out, her body viscously shaking as she goes through another fit of coughs, blood from her nose drips upon her pristine nightgown. Wayne comforts the hysterical girl as he tries to lead her away.

“No, I want to see this…” Shizuka sneers.

Jeans and boxers find a home on the floor as a desk is moved to the middle of the floor. One of the men with a dumb grin on his face unzips his slacks and positions himself behind the struggling blond.

Jou grunts as his face hits the wooden desk painfully and two sets of hands holds down his shoulders. His “seme” grabs his hips and moves forward…

Green eyes flicker in amusement. Yes, she will bring her brother back to his senses…even if it means by force.

“AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”

To be continued….
