The Sweetest Taboo

This chappie is from Yugi's POV.... this happenes after Seto and Yami got busted. Remember, Yugi had run from the game shop. Where'd he go? That's answered in this chappie, along with the question that everyone wants the answer to..who arfe Yugi's two otehr crushes? You'll find out!! A little citrus in this chapter, no a great deal, but just enough. I hope ya like it!!

DISCLAIMER: If they were mine, I'd have two children...one by Yami, the other by Seto. But I don't.


I ran, as fast as I could away from the game shop...and away from the
hurt. The tears blinded me, and my heart broke more with every step.
The only conscious thought I had was, "Why, Yami? How could you
betray me like this? If I'd only gotten the chance to tell you how I
felt inside about both Joey and Seto.... you wouldn't have needed to
go behind my back to do anything. I would have given you the world on
a platter, had you just come to me."

With a choked sob, I continued onward to the place where I knew I
could think without being interrupted.... my secret sanctuary. It was
a cove I'd found by accident once before, and only Joey, Yami, and I
know of its existence. I always come here to think, especially when
something's bothering me.

Arriving at the cove, I sat down inside and cried harder, drawing my
knees up to my chin. I could feel Exodia's warm touch on my mind,
trying to soothe me, and it helped a little, but the one whose
comfort I really wanted was the source of my unhappiness.

I buried mye ine into my knees deeper, feeling my heart shatter
further. Suddenly, I felt a warm hand travel over my back, caressing
it lightly. I knew it wasn't Yami; he'd retreated to his Soul Room
and was asleep, according to Kage. It could be only one other person.

I sat up, and looked deep into Joey's amber eyes. Without a word, he
pulled me into his lap and hugged me close. I buried my face into his
shoulder and sighed heavily. He rocked me back and forth, whispering
words of encouragement into my ear. Seto has no clue of the treasure
he's lost in Joey. He'll feel the regret sooner or later though.

I pulled back to gaze into Joey's eyes. They mirrored exactly what I
felt inside: sorrow, betrayal, hurt. Unconsciously, I reached out and
wiped away the tear that was making its lone exodus down Joey's face.
He rubbed my face with his hand, and before I knew it, he leaned in
and gave me a soft, gentle kiss.

I closed my eyes, knowing in my heart this was wrong...but it felt
so good. It's been so long since I last kissed Joey. We'd decided to
be just friends instead of lovers; after all, Joey had his crush on
Seto, and I wasn't interested in anyone like that...until Yami.

Joey moaned, and pulled me closer to him to deepen the kiss. My hands
clenched into fists as I grabbed Joey's shirt tightly, feeling the
hunger in his kiss, and an answering hunger in myself. He pulled back
from me suddenly, then looked at me as if questioning. I knew this
wasn't right...but I needed a release... something to take my mind
the the betrayal.

While holding his eyes, I slowly took off my buckled choker, then
tilted my head back in a submissive gesture. Joey then leaned forward
and kissed me from my ear down to my neck, making me moan with pure
pleasure.

While he kissed my neck, I tangled my hands into his silky blonde
hair and started grinding against him slowly, feeling his hips push
against mine in response. Joey leaned back to look at me once again,
then he slowly took off my jacket and shirt. Leaning down, he
attacked my nipples hungrily, making me cry out loud.

At the same time he licked my nipples, I busily unbuttoned his shirt
as well, baring his magnificent chest. I stopped him, then took my
time exploring every inch of his well-made body. Gods, he's
beautiful, with a long, lean body that reminds me of a sleek cat.

He took my hands, stopping me from rubbing on him. In a low, husky
voice, he asked me to stand before him. I did so, and, while holding
my gaze, he gently unbuttoned my pants, sliding them down past my
hips. He rubbed the bulge in myers ers softly, making my knees go
weak. He leaned forward, and kissed my stomach while sliding my
boxers down past my hips, revealing my erection to his gaze. He took
it in his hands, then looked at me. Leaning forward, he gently licked
the tip, cleaning off the precum that had ted ted to flow from me.

"Oh, Jooeeeeyyy," I panted breathlessly. Taking that as a sign of
approval, he then captured the head between his lips, sucking
lightly. 'This is getting out of hand,' I think absently, while
trying not to lose control and fuck his mouth. With a loud gasp, I
pulled away from Joey, who looked dazed.

"Why did you stop, Yugi?" he asked. "Didn't that make you feel good?"

"It did...almost too good," I responded in a low voice, pulling my
clothes on at the same time. "However, neither of us need this right
now, no matter how good it feels. If we did go all the way, we'd be
no better than Yami or Seto. I have a lot of respect for you, Joey,
and I refuse to take my frustrations out on you like that."

"I understand, Yuug," Joey says, sighing deeply. "I can't use you
like that either. There is something that's been bothering me,
though."

"What's that?" I inquired curiously.

"Why did Yami and Seto do this to us? I mean, damn, if they'd wanted
to go all out like that, all they had to do was tell us. But then
again, they don't know we'd ever been like that either."

"You're right, they don't," I replied. "However, what you and I
shared was before Seto and Yami even came into the picture. At least
we didn't behave like that AFTER we got with our lovers. We had more
restraint and respect for each other and our perspective
relationships. It would've be neat if we could've gotten a foursome
going, wouldn't it?"

"Hell yeah!"

We both laugh for a second, then get serious again. Joey then looked
at me and said, "I lied to Seto when I said I didn't want him again.
I still love him, Yuug." His voice choked with that last
statement. "I just don't understand why he wouldn't come to me and
tell me he felt like that on the inside. I mean I was believing he
and Yami hated each other."

"I know, Joey," I whispered soothingly, stroking his sun-
kissed hair. "You're hurting right now, and it's understandable. I am
as well, but you've relieved a great deal of that ache. I was in
shock, too, to see him and Seto together like that. I want to forgive
him... I mean after all, I was keeping this secret from him as well
about you and I.... but my heart still feels betrayed..."

"I understand perfectly, Yuug. I feel hurt as well, and I'm not
letting Seto off the hook that easily. He deserves some form of
punishment... and I know just what to do. I say we make both Yami anSetoSeto suffer a while to teach them a lesson. Then I suggest you and I
hang out more, you know... play the jealousy/guessing game. After
that, I can talk to Yami to see how he feels, and you can talk to
Seto, then we'll arrange for a meeting with the four of us together.
Sound good?"

"Hai, it does, Joey. Normally I wouldn't approve of something this
cruel, but they've earned it. Although, there is one element that I
haven't told Yami yet... or you either."

"Talk to me, Yuug. You know I'll never judge you."

"I also have feelings for Kage, the Dark Magician."

I've known all too well about pretending to be strong.
But since then, my doubts have vanished.
There's definitely things I want to show you
and so many words I want to hear
I want to see all sides of you, when you laugh and cry.
So I'll stop waiting
and seize my "chance."

I think of you,
and that alone is enough
to make my heart grow stronger.
I always, always wish
that these fleeting thoughts
would reach you.....

I think of you,
and that alone is enough
to make the tears start to flow now.
My distant voice can't reach you now, but soon
it definitely will.
Believe.


The song above is "My Will," the first ending song to another peronal anime favorite, InuYasha. I love that anime, and that song. It suited this chapter a great deal... Yugi wishes he'd told Yami his thoughts and feelings before it came to this.... suits him don't it?

Well now, how about that? LOL, I bet you didn't expect one of Yugi's crushes to be the Dark Magician, did ya? Soli did though, and for that, she gets a box of Pocky!! If you look at the cartoon, you'll notice that the Dark Magician and Seto resemble strongly.
No, Kage does not know Yugi likes him. He just knew Yugi was crushing on two other people, since Yugi more than likely told him in one of his confession chats. Besides, liking Kage is almost like liking Seto. Both are beautiful and powerful, smart and forceful. Naturally, Yugi's crush on Seto would carry over to the one who resembles him so much...the DM. One is reality, one is fantasy. Sound cool? Next chappie coming soon!!!
