The full moon shines brightly in the clear sky over the nightlife of
Domino. Only a soft wind permeates the still peace of the night. Tiny
specks of light flickers from the city itself like glitter as its being
observed from a familiar peak…

Lover’s Peak.

A sleek dark red Rolls Royce pulls up upon the cliff and gently yields to
a halt. The driver side opens up revealing a young looking American man
with a grey chauffeur hat, as he makes his way towards the back of the
car.

Popping open the door he announces in plain English, “Madame Summers, we
have arrived at our destination.”

Green stiletto heels, adorn in diamond, steps out of the luxurious car as
a slender figure stands up right. She wears a white sun dress which was
decorated in green printed flowers, her darkish hair braided up in a bun
with two shining hair sticks sticking straight out from it. The rays of
the moon reflect off of the overpriced jewelry which she adorns.

“Thank you, Daniel. It’ll only be a moment; you can wait for me in the
car.” Bright watermelon pink lipstick curves into a smile.

With a bow, the young chauffeur gracefully steps back into the car with
his comrade, a bodyguard that sits stiffly in the passenger seat.

With a nostalgia sigh, the teenage girl walks to the edge of the cliff.
She silently thanks the sordid things that had happened upon this peak. For her most
cherished bond would have never existed.

Miss Summers reaches into her tiny purse and pulls out a month old newspaper
clipping and stares at the toothy grin that flashes back at her.

He’s down there somewhere and they certainly have a lot of catching up to do.

Plump lips showing pearly white teeth growl at a distinct memory of just
why he’s down there and not with her.

However the face immediately calms, despite the very few chance meetings
that they had, this was to be THE meeting.

Because this time…the joining will be PERMANENT.

A smirk now spreads over smooth features.
To the budding young actress, opening day approaches…

Grinning in spite of herself, Miss Summers tersely spins on her
heels and exclaims, “Let’s get to the hotel, Daniel! Tomorrow will be a
glorious day!”

Stepping back into the car, the excitable girl looks one more time at the
clipping and whispers….

“I’m coming to get you and nothing will ever keep us apart again….”

“Yo, Jou! What’s up with your boyfriend?” Tristan asks as he crams a bunch of french fries down his mouth.

School had dragged on as usual nothing out of the ordinary...well except for one brunet who looked like he was walking the green mile. Throughout the entire morning, Kaiba had sat in his chair, eyes downcast and dead silent. Being the brightest and richest student in the school, this worried the teachers greatly. Therefore, class was interrupted several times on account of the CEO’s health but would always resume with a brisk, stern voice of “I’m fine”, from the brunet, himself.

Now in the lunchroom, the former cocky CEO sits in the very back, eyes staring intently yet unfocused at his laptop. The other occupants at the table shifts uncomfortably in their seats. Why in the hell would the great Kaiba Seto be sitting at the “loser” table. Yea sure, Kaiba COULD be consider a geek, a nerd, a technology obsessed freak but his body was perfect, no acne marking his face like connect the dots, and he actually look GORGEOUS in glasses even if they had that thick piece of white tape in the middle. So to the poor outcasts of the school, he looked like a fish out of water.

Of course they weren’t the only ones concerned for the blue-eyed Adonis. A pair of pained hazel eyes also focus on the said boy in worry.

Jou sighs and turns around. “I got him ta agree ta meet mah dad for dinner tonight.”

Yugi, who had his fork midway to his mouth, quickly lowers it. “Gosh, Jou. You never invited us to meet your father...I’m kinda jealous.” The tri-hair teen feigned hurt.

“Ay, Yug. Don’t be like dat!” Jou exclaims waving his hands about. “My dad has been on mah case about it evah since he figured out I had a boyfriend. I mean he’s been actin’ strange , more so, den when I told him dat I’m gay!”

Tristan raised his eyebrows at that. “And I still can’t believe that you're not homeless. No scratch that, you’re still alive.”

Jou grins sheeplishly, rubbing the back of his head. “Mah dad maybe hardcore but he’s a good guy. Dat’s why I’m not too worried about mah angel meetin’ him.”

“Shit, I beg you differ, looks like your angel’s in hell!” Otogi retorts taking a quick glance towards the back. “And is it just me or is it peaceful at this table?”

While Tristan looks at disbelief at his love’s sudden change of subject, Yugi decides to stay on it.

“Well I think its great that you are really serious about your relationship. Good luck on that.” Yugi quirks at a smile at his friend in extra reassurance.

“Shit, thanks man. It’s da only thing I’m serious about. But enough about me, what bout you? Isn’t Ryou suppose ta swing by here dis weekend?”

Yugi blushes slightly. “He’s flying in Friday afternoon.”

“Shit! I’m going to find out why its so damn quiet around here!” Otogi abruptly says as he breaks his candy bar in half to give to Tristan.

Chuckling, “Well you’re certainly the reason why its NOT quiet...” Tristan bends slightly forward to capture the offered candy bar with his mouth. He makes sure to lick some fingers in the process.

“Eewww, you got spit all over them!” Otogi exclaims with a fake cringe as he takes a napkin and swipes the offending liquid off his fingers.

Jou laughs loudly as he stood up. “You are such a prima donna, ‘Togi”

Tristan shakes his head as he agrees and then said, “You gonna go and try to do some damage control huh?”

“Hell yea, Can’t let mah baby get to da point of suicide. I’ll catch ya guys la...”

“Hot damn, where’s Tea’?” Otogi exclaims looking around. “That’s why its been so quiet. I knew I wasn’t going crazy!”

Yugi visibly fidgets in his seat and quickly looks down at his half-eaten hot dog.

Otogi being overly observant today, for some reason, picks up on it.

“Yugi, where’s Tea’? Didn’t she even come to school today?”

“No...I didn’t expect for her too...” Yugi mumbles, a little too aggressively.

All eyes was on the small teen, even Jou as he begins walking backwards towards the back.

“Holy shit! Did you and Tea’ get into a fight?!” Otogi asks in shock. Even if Yugi and Tea’ wasn’t a item, they were still conjoined at the hip...

Before the blonde had got to hear what his little best friend had said, he quickly turns around and walks forward towards the reason of his existence. Of course he was dying to know what had happened between his two friends, but Seto at the moment had took center stage.

His eyes caught weary blue ones just as the bell rings for the end of lunch.

Kaiba gets up slowly and waits for the blonde to finish his trek to him and replies, “Let’s just skip the rest of the day mutt. I don’t think it would do me any good to continue on staying here.”

Jou smiles as he moves to gently stroke the nape of his boyfriend’s neck. “Ya know I’m definitely down with dat!”

Kaiba heaves out a long sigh as he drapes an arm around Jounouchi’s waist. They silently walk out the door, making their way towards a familiar blue Porsche.

The brunet pauses uncomfortably as he zone in on the passenger and opens it up for the blonde.

Jou feels himself grow pity on the rich bastard, besides it was sort of his fault why he’s like this...

Kaiba silently pushes the key in the ignition and revs up the engine. He then proceeds to grip the wheel, a strong, steady tanned hand stills his hands to do anything further.

“Ay, Kaib, look at me.”

Dazed at the deep, soft tenor voice, the brunet turns to stare into pools of honey.

“Dere’s dis great little diner downtown dat serve some kick ass banana splits. How bout it? Mah treat.”

“I couldn’t ask you to do that...” Kaiba said, sternly.
Chucking, Jou leans in and plants one on a silky cheek but didn’t pull away.

“I’m not dat damn poor dat I can’t afford a couple of banana splits” Jou cocks his head so that they were face to face, breathes mingling.

Kaiba drew in some air...only for it to be taken away.

Soft moans fills the still air, worries temporarily vanishing.

Pulling back, Kaiba grins in spite of himself. He turns and rev up the engine once more before pulling out.

Leave it to the mutt to make him feel at ease even when his head is on the chopping block.


* * *

Pale fingers lightly traces a tall diner glass containing a root beer float. Solemn blue eyes stares out of the large window at the busy lunch traffic. A blue Hello Kitty book bag sits forgotten by slender pale legs. Pain slightly distort feminine features as the horrible scene from last night was still vivid....


Flashback

“Are you absolutely sure that this is what you want?” Shoulder length auburn hair flairs violently as a slightly curved figure paces the floor.

“Ryou is what I’ve always wanted! Tea’, why can’t you be happy for me?” Yugi harshly spats out as he quickly walks over to the game shop window.

“Happy?! Happy?! How can I be happy when you’ve broken my heart!” Tea exclaim, her breathing becoming erratic.

“You’ve put yourself in this situation!. Violet eyes continue to bore holes through the glass.
You were the first one I told about being...”

“Yea, yea. You told me that you’re bi...”

“NO! YOU said that I’m bi! I’m GAY, Tea’! Why can’t you see that! Instead of me being in the closet its in fact YOU! You’re so deep in the closet, you’re finding porn and Christmas presents!”
Yugi now staring full force into hurt blue eyes, for once not really caring.

“I’ve been there for you before anyone else had, Yugi! How dare you rob us of our happiness over something that’ll send you to hell!” Streams of tears runs down Tea’s face.

Yugi stares aghast at his long time friend. Chibi eyes slowly turning into sharp slits. Venom leaks out of parting words.

“If being with you is heaven, then I’ve made the right choice. Now get the hell out.”


End Flashback


Wrenching her face away from the window, Tea becomes startled at the figure that now graces the seat in front of her. Her eyes squints at the familiarity of the face but have not yet able to place a name.

Diamonds glistens as very expensive shades were removed. A sickeningly smile spreads over rose colored lips.

Tea’ gasps aloud as her mouth twists to form a name on her lips. Suddenly manicured fingers becomes a thin sound barrier against the noise that threatens to spill out.

“Tut, tut! No opening before X-mas! Miss Summers will do.” The proudly mentioned girl grins as she took a quick moment to look around. Making sure no other familiar faces were around.

“I-It’s been a long time...almost...” Tea stammers trying to get over the initial shock.

“A year...yea...A LOT had happened since then.” The manicured hand from earlier reaches up to adjust the large sun hat upon silky strands. “How’s everyone?”

“Hmph” Blue eyes darken in refueled anger. “Oh everyone is peachy. Things are going fine like bubble gum, and...rainbows.” The last word was spat out like a bad taste in one’s mouth.

Eyes adorned with mascara widen. A smirk finds its way in the open. “How are things with you and Yugi? You guys seem to really hit it off a year ago.” The rich teen knew she had hit her target and smirks even more when the grief-stricken girl took the bait...

“Well Miss Summers, the gang has also changed including Yugi. It seems women are no longer consider a part of this god-forsaken world.” Tea’ quickly takes a sip at her float.

“Oh do go on!” A chin rests on tiny hands in interest of the conversation.

“The guys are finding love within each other! At first it was kinda cute when Otogi and Tristan had gotten together but then Ryou came along and spread the gay disease to Yugi.”

Miss Summers giggles but becomes dead silent at what she heard next.

“Jou surprised me most of all though. I never pinned him for a fag but there he is prancing around with the richest boy teen in all of Domino...Kaiba Seto.”

“Excuse me? Oh you must got that all wrong...Jou would never do such a filthy thing.” the high-maintenance girl laughs nervously. “You talk about someone who use to read porn like comic books...”

“Have you ever considered just who he might have been looking at in those books?” Tea asks quizzically while staring at the unreadable expression the now decorates the make-up on the young face.

“Dear Tea, you’re just lonely. No need to spread vicious rumors...but it does seem that you are in need of a female friend.”

“I guess it’ll be nice to have a girl to share things with for once but...” Tea squirms in her seat, a light blush dusting her cheeks.

“Yugi can be part of the deal...just agree to be my uh, pretty little sidekick. We can have sleep overs, put on makeup, go shopping, whatever!” Miss Summers clasps her hands together in giddiness.

Tea’ smile brightly at the wonderful idea. Talking to another female was like a breath of fresh air. “I think....” Words dies on her lips as she witness the shock and horrific expression on the young girl’s face. Following the troubled gaze, the brunette whirls around in time to see a certain blond playfully tugging a slightly reluctant brunet into the diner.

Raising her eyebrows at the affectionate display, Tea once again faces the girl with a smirk of her own. Well, she told her...

Quickly standing up, Miss Summers grabs the smug blue-eyed girl and heads urgently towards the back entrance. They couldn’t be seen just yet! Everything will be ruined, especially with these new developments...

“Hey, wait a minute! Where are we going!” came the hushed reply from Tea’ as she manages to grab her book bag that she was forced to trip over. However no answer immediately came as both girls passes through the door. A simple bell rings, announcing their exit. However the small spectacle didn’t escape blue eyes...

Kaiba was certain of the auburn haired girl being Tea’ but who was the other chick? Before he was able to contemplate any further, soft lips touches his neck.

“What ya want on your banana split, angel.” Jou grins, tugging at the small silver ring that encircles the brunet’s thumb.

“Whatever you’re getting on yours, pup. I don’t eat much sweets.” However the CEO immediately regrets his answer as the blond opens hie mouth to speak...

“Yea, let me get two banana splits wit extra chocolate syrup and all da nuts and whip cream you can put up dere.” Jou turns around and chocks over a laugh at his love’s face. Then with a devious smirk, he replies before giving up the money to the cashier. “On second thought, I’ll just have one. We’ll share.”

Kaiba sits himself in a nearby booth by a window. He gives a slight grunt when he feels a brunt force slamming into his side.
“Our banana split should be ready in a few...” Jou purrs out, resting his head on a sturdy shoulder.

The brunet just hums his approval and enjoys the silence for a bit. However, his mind is being way too noisy.

“I think I should go shopping for some...err..some appropriate attire.” Kaiba half mumbles out, not once looking at the blonde, evening though said boy was staring at him.

“What for? Ya already have nice clothes! I’ll just be takin’ dem off like I always do anyway!” Jou exclaims cracking a smile.

Kaiba snickers half heartedly but then harshly exclaims. “I’m being serious, ya damn dog! I don’t want to seem too....”

“Too what? You’ll be fine, Kaib. Perfect comes easy ta ya.”

Being too perfect was his worse fear! Before the brunet could open his mouth in protest, the huge banana split was put in front of them.

“That’s what I’m talkin about!” the blonde teen picks up his spoon and digs into the cold treat. He moans in approval of the taste.

Kaiba shrugs and picks up the second spoon but suddenly drops it back. It seems that he didn’t need it, since his mouth was already full with ice cream.

“I said, that we’ll share” Jou said with a giggle as he takes another bite. A tongue flicks out to lick the spoon. Kaiba looks helplessly at the display, he suddenly had a new respect for banana splits. The blonde then once again spoon feeds him, occasionally licking at his pale lips.

So oblivious to their little world that they didn’t notice a certain vengeful glare aiming their way through tinted glass of a red Rolls Royce. A newspaper clipping lying beside manicured toes, with a strategically placed hole replacing a certain CEO’s face...
