Chapter Two

By Kellyq

The clock struck passed twelve.
Jack had bandaged all of Yusei's wounds and the two lovers were
now laying on the couch, holding each other close.

"I should get
going before Jeager comes," Jack said.

Yusei's expression
half darkened as he watched his boyfriend walk to the door.
"I don't think it's fair that we can't see each other that
often." the dark-haired teen closed his right eye. "I
do miss you when we're not together."

"I'll call you
later," the blonde-teen promised.

Yusei couldn't help
but chuckle of how forgetful his boyfriend would get at times.
Jack turned and felt soft pink lips on his. The blonde-teen
wrapped his arms around Yusei and pulled him closer to his body.

"I love you,
Jack," Yusei murmured, staring into violet eyes. "And
don't worry about me. You know that I can take care of
myself."

Jack smirked and
shook his head. "I'll talk to you later."

The blonde kissed
his boyfriend before he turned and walked out. Jack closed the
door and there stood Jeager and Mina - Jack's house keeper.
Jeager was a short, thin man. He had real short purple hair that
stuck out behind his pointy ears with ear rings on each. Jeager
had slanted green-eyes, and his eyebrows were shaped like check
marks. Jeager's lips were a soft red color. face="Verdana">Jeager wore a white shirt, with black pants. The
trench coat Jeager had on was red on the outside and black in the
inside, with yellow lining. Mina had short dark-blue hair with
hazel brown eyes, and fair skin. She wore a white blouse, blue
jacket and a matching skirt.

"Are you done
playing around with Mr. Fudo? Because you forgot your dinner
plans with Carly ...." Jeager started to say.

Jack closed his
eyes, ignoring what the shorter man had to say. He didn't forget
meeting up with the black-haired woman, Yusei was his main focus.

"She was
really upset," Mina informed. "So upset that Godwin
even had a chat with her!"

Jeager chuckled at
the memory ...

Jeager
pulled away from Godwin when they both heard a knock at the door.
Jeager slipped out of bed, grabbed his robe. He walked to the
door and opened it. Mina stood there with a worried expression.

"Mina?"
Godwin called out, getting the young woman's attention.

Mina
bowed immediately. "I'm sorry sir! Carly's on the phone!
She's really upset that Jack didn't show up at the
restaurant!"

Godwin
sighed as Mina handed the phone to him. Jeager couldn't help but
chuckle, knowing full well where Jack was.

"Miss
Nagisa," Godwin said in a soothing tone. "Now calm down
my dear. You've called him and all you got was his voice-mail. I
understand that you're upset. I'll talk to Jack when I find
him."

"I'll go talk
to her right now," Jack said, sounding a little irritated.

A young girl in her
mid teens sat in a chair in the solitude of her own bright
apartment. She went by the name of Carly. A bright energetic
woman with black strait hair that went past her waist. Carly had
beautiful dark-green eyes, and soft fair skin. She wore a white
shirt with blue stripes. The vest she had on over the shirt was
orange, and the pants went snug around her waist. Next to Carly
was a pair of spiral shaped glass.

"Does Jack
really hate me?" she asked herself. "I do try and make
him happy, but has he once smiled? What am I doing wrong."

"I don't
really hate you," came Jack's voice.

Carly jumped a
little and turned her head to see the blonde standing there.
"H-how did you get in?"

"You left your
door unlocked." Jack walked up and sat across the table.
"Sorry that I missed our outing. Something came up."

Carly smiled,
trying to keep her emotions at bay. "That's okay." She
got up. "Do you want something to drink?"

Jack shook his head
and rose from his seat. "No thanks. I just came to
apologize."

Carly lowered her
head in shame. "I'm sorry that I got you in trouble. I was
just worried about you, that's all."

Jack shrugged it
off. "I'll call you when it is a good time to have our
outing."

Carly's face lit
up, feeling her heart soar. "Okay! I'll see you soon!"

Jack was already
out the door before she squealed with delight.
