Title: What Can Never be Forgotten or Forgiven 6/?
Author: Kleptomaniac Can Opener
Pairing: Jou x Seto
Rating: NC-17
Disclaimer: I don't own anything Yugi-Oh. It's almost as depressing as this fic.

Summary: Kaiba Seto has a good reason for hating Jounouchi Katsuya. But it's not until recent that Katsuya learns the past has a vicious bite when teaching you a lesson. "Sometimes, doing nothing at all is also a sin."

NOTES: Okay, this is more of a quick exposition/transition chapter than anything. I’m sorry if it’s boring. XD

***Sixth Sin***

“Hikari, send for Hikaru.”
“Right away, Kaiba-sama.” Kaiba releases the speaker button that connects him directly to his secretary, then leans back in his cushioned chair to wait.

If he had to pick two people who he feels he can trust in his company, his secretary Hikari Oodiko and his Pageboy Hikaru Ookido would be them. Hikari had started as his personal assistant not long after Gozaburo had adopted Mokuba and him. She was part of his training to get him used to giving orders and controlling the actions of others. His step-father had originally planned to fire her once his training was complete, but with the old man dead, Kaiba kept her in his employment. Hikaru, Hikari’s younger brother, had joined his staff on her recommendation after he had formally taken over Kaiba Corporation. The pair has been invaluable to him.

The door opens, admitting a teenager a year younger than Kaiba. His hair is short and a fiery scarlet color, accompanied by sharp green eyes. “Kaiba-sama.”
“I need this taken to Michiba on floor 8.”
“Not a problem, sir.” The young man takes the sealed folder from his boss’s hands. “Kaiba-sama, do you want me to do anything with your guest in the break room?”

Kaiba has been keeping his mind off of That Person, but His presence has been itching at the back of his consciousness for the last couple hours. “If you could.” The redhead smiles.
“Not a problem, sir.”

He watches as his loyal employee exits his office. Hikaru may be younger, but he has confidence in him.

A beep from Hikari catches his attention. “Yes?”
“Sir, you should take your lunch now.”
“Alright.” Kaiba stands and leaves his office. “Make sure Hikaru gets a bonus for dealing with the mutt,” he says as he passes by his secretary.
“I will, Kaiba-sama.” He doesn’t have to look to know she’s amused. Hikari has a way of smiling with her voice, much the way that Yugi does.

Down the street is a high-end café that he goes to on most days. He takes his usual private booth in the back of the restaurant and orders his usual. He goes through his PDA while he waits for his order, checking the stock market and other things to keep him on top of matters that may concern him. Kaiba Corporation stock has gone stagnant, but once his new products come out, that will change. As long as he keeps the stock from dropping more than the normal fluctuation, they’re fine.

Kaiba’s phone rings, playing the chorus to some anime song that Mokuba programmed in. “Mokuba?”
“Hey, big brother! How are things going?”
“I’m at lunch.”
“... And Jounouchi-kun?”
“Hikaru is taking care of him.” Mokuba sighs over the line.
“Seto, you’re supposed to be trying to interact with him. If all he does is hang out with Hikaru he won’t be able to learn anything.”
“He doesn’t have to be around me every moment of the day, Mokuba. We’ll get the assignment done, don’t worry about it. Are you having fun with your friends in Tokyo?”
“Totally! Shi-chan was able to join us at Akihabara an hour ago.” Seto’s jaw tightens but he keeps his tone steady.
“That’s good. Remember to be home before nine tonight.”
“I will.”
“Don’t go anywhere alone.”
“I won’t.”
“Stay away from shady places.”
“I know, Seto! Don’t worry! I’ll be home before nine and in one piece. Bye, and have Jounouchi-kun join you for lunch!”

Kaiba stares at his phone for a long moment, trying to calm his nerves.

Mokuba is almost the age he was when That happened. His baby brother is cute with expressive eyes that draw people in. He’s oddly naïve in spite of his knowledge of the darker dealings of the world. Kaiba can’t help but worry about the boy.

The brunet sighs and hits his speed dial. “Hikaru.”
“What can I do for you, sir?”
“I’m at the café. Bring the mutt with you.”
“Sure thing! We were just thinking about lunch.”

He ends the call and rubs his eyes. “I need to stop spoiling Mokuba.” But the boy didn’t say he had to eat with That Person alone. Hikaru will be a good buffer.

“Here’s your order, Kaiba-sama.” Kaiba glances up at the waitress, ignoring the blush that blossoms on her cheeks when he does so.
“I will have two guests joining me today. A redhead who answers to Ookido, and a blond.”
“Understood, sir.”

Kaiba leans back in his seat as the first of several plates are placed down in front of him. His stomach growls as the delicious scents waft around him. He begins eating the appetizers. There’s no guarantee he’ll keep his appetite once That Person joins him.
