Unresolved Conflicts

A/N: Damn it! Stop reviewing so fast. My classes start again this Tuesday. I can’t keep updating every day. You are killing me. Anyways, thanks for the great reviews though. They help. They encourage me to write more.

The weirdest things happen in LA. Today I went to the library in downtown (yes, it is open on a Sunday), and even though my hair was dirty, I was wearing old clothes, walking with a cane, and sweating all over because of the horrible heat, guys still kept coming up to me and pasturing me. What is wrong with men?

shanghanjin: I know I am evil for doing that to my pup but he just looks too cute when he is tortured. I can’t help myself. I need to torture him. Don’t worry, I’ll make it up to him later.

Nekosune: Yam! LOL Starving authors. It’s funny because it’s true. Most people associated with the arts are starving. Society is so unfair. Anyways, ignore me. Thank you for the gifts. They were delicious and I am gaining weight (seriously, though, I am).

PotionsPet: I am glad that you loved it and yes, of course I can.

Nekoii: A thousand apologies. I shall go back and fix my error. I am so sorry. But I just messed up the spelling of your nickname once. People mispronounce my real name all the time. You can’t imagine how horrible it is. No one can say my first or last name correctly. Oh well. As for your questions, read and you’ll have your answers.

reygurl: A thousand “thank you”’s to you. I am glad that you like my stories.

Sekre: Yes, the past is what I am trying to model this off of. It’s like I am plagiarizing myself. But of course I have my permission so I should be okay.

Dark Toy: See, I would like to update every hour but I need to write the chapter first before I can update so… I need time. Calm down. You are starting to sound like me. When that happens, you have a problem. Trust me.

kim: Well, I need my story to go fast. I am not sure as to why, though. Oh well, I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what my perverted brain concocts this time.

Rina: Well… they ARE spirits. They already lived one life. They are just trying to resolve their conflict so that they may rest in peace. (OMG I actually sound like a religious person).

Chapter3


When Jou was more late than usual everyone in class started worrying. The blond was known to be late but he never missed school. No one knew what happened to Jou except for the tall brunet who was ignoring everyone and everything around him, including the teacher.

But the truth was that Kaiba was worried. He did a great job of concealing it, but he WAS worried. Only he knew what happened and he was starting to wonder whether he was too harsh or not. After all, the boy was a virgin. Maybe he needed to use more lubrication? Maybe he should have been more caring? But he was Seto Kaiba. He was never caring or considerate. But he never did a virgin before. He never had sex with an underage virgin before.

Then it hit Kaiba. Maybe it was because he just left him there?

Everyone relaxed a bit once the blond walked inside with his usual grin and apologized to the teacher for being late. As always, he got his detention slip and made his way to his seat. He was very careful not to look in Kaiba’s direction or glance at his friends. He knew there would be questions.

He knew there would be more questions when he winced once his bottom his the seat. The female teacher raised her eyebrows but said nothing. After all, this was Jounouchi Katsuya. He always did something ridiculous for no apparent reason. Class went on as usual with Jou asleep half the time.

As soon as the intermission bell rang Jou's friends crowded him and attacked him with questions.

“Are you okay Jou-chan?”

“Man, what happened?”

“Why were you so late?”

“We were worried about you?”

“Did something bad happen?”

“Why did you wince when you sat down?”

“Jou, are you even listening to us?”

“Dude, you don’t seem like yourself.”

“Did something happen in the bathroom?”

“What are you not telling us?”

“Jou! Say something.”

Jou was trying to say something but his friends wouldn’t allow him. He finally managed to choke out a half-hearted “I’m fine” before gathering his things and heading towards his other class.

For the remainder of the day his friends kept asking him questions. Jou kept ignoring all the questions and trying to change the subject.

His hips were starting to bruise where Kaiba had held him tight while he… Jou couldn’t finish the sentence even in his own mind. He was just so confused. He had been thinking the whole day and had decided not to tell his friends just yet. He needed more time to figure this out.

Finally, the end of the day came and Jou headed towards detention. The quiet, for once, would be welcome. He could finally concentrate on his thoughts and try to come to a decision.

That did not work.

Jou couldn’t think straight. He remembered how good it was with Kaiba (after the initial pain, of course). He couldn’t get over how he had left him. He wanted to do it again and hated himself for wanting it and for worrying that Kaiba wouldn’t want it. He was just an utter mess.

In his office the CEO was in the same state of mind. He couldn’t stop thinking about the blond. What had he done?! He had sex with his enemy. He took his enemy’s virginity. He wanted to do it all over again. What was wrong with him?!

Kaiba took a few claming breaths, removing his glasses (Yes, he wears glasses when it’s my fiction) and resting his head for a while. He couldn’t even concentrate on the new project.

Finally getting tired of it Seto Kaiba did something he barely ever did before: he acted on impulse without checking his plan for at least three times. As a matter of fact, he didn’t think at all. He just called his limo driver, told him to pick him up, and got up to go downstairs.



Jou was finally out of detention. He was thinking about going to the park to think some more when he froze in his tracks in front of the school. There it was – the black limo with the KC logo on the side. Jou would recognize that limo anywhere.

The driver came up and opened the door, motioning for Jou to get in.

Jou didn’t know why he did what he did but he got in. His heart started racing. What was he doing? What was Kaiba doing? Why did he get in? He needed to get out. Why wasn’t there enough oxygen in the car?

Seeing the distraught look on Jou's face made the CEO smirk. He loved having that effect on him.

“So…” Jou just couldn’t take the silence anymore.

“So what?”

“What… I mean… I… We… You…”

“We need to talk about what happened in the bathroom.” Just leave it to Kaiba to handle any situation with sang froid and be blunt in everything.

Jou just nodded, his face down and his cheeks flushed. Seto smirked. His puppy looked cute when blushing. Wait… did he just think of Jou as his puppy?

“I am sorry. I shouldn’t have done that today.”

“Oh.,” was all Jou could manage. He couldn’t believe this. So Kaiba did think that what happened was a mistake. He wanted to end things. Jou just knew it. And even though he told himself that it was for the best, he wanted it continue.

“We shouldn’t mention this to anyone. You didn’t tell the loo… your friends,” Kaiba corrected himself. “Did you?”

“No.” Jou's voice was weak. He wasn’t his usual self at all today. He couldn’t explain what was happening to him. Why did he care so much? Why were his eyes watering?

“Mutt, look…”

“I am not a mutt!” Jou did his first Jou-ish thing ever since his encounter in the bathroom. Of course, launching at Kaiba in a limo, Kaiba’s limo, was probably not the best idea, but that’s what made it so Jou-like.

Jou tried to grab Kaiba by the collar but the CEO took hold of his hand, then grabbed the other hand, putting them both behind Jou's back. Of course this forced Jou into an uncomfortable position straddling Kaiba. And before the two boys knew what happened, they were kissing each other passionately, Jou pressing his body against Kaiba’s.

PLEASE REVIEW (but not too soon)
