Weha! ^____^ See? before midnight. 614 words. o.< Sorry for the shortness, but.. yeah. Mentions of sex. But nothing else.




Unlike Katsuya, I don't have the luxury of falling asleep during class. Though sometimes I wish I did. Seto tried not to sigh, listening to the teacher's lecture. Several people -- the Mutt included -- were already asleep or zoning out. And Seto loathed the idea of becoming one of them, even if he'd only managed four hours of sleep in the last few nights.

Three days into the new 'system' and Seto was about as jumpy as a cat in a rocking chair factory. Even he had only so much self-control, and the dreams weren't helping any. It seemed like every time he closed his eyes something lewd was behind his eyes, and everytime he tried to work with Katsuya, they ended up in a compromising position. Somehow. The constant dreams were making fraying his control faster than he could contain.

Seto had woken before dawn this morning, jerking awake with the sight of Jouno still lingering in his mind's eye. Golden skin barely covered by bandages and the musky taste of his skin and sweat lingered in Seto's mouth. He was very very glad Mokuba had been at a friend's house, and remembering it now he was even more glad of it.

This was going to end up killing him in the end. He snorted near silently at the thought, surprised when he glanced up and Jou was watching him, notebook and textbook under one arm. "S'over. We're supposed to answer ten questions." Today the mutt even had the balls to arch an eyebrow at him. "Ain'cha been paying attention, Kaiiba?"

Seto forced down the flush and the sense memory of
(musky taste on his tongue, like sex and sweat, and Seth smiled coldly at Jouno. "You're mine." And it didn't matter that the boy wasn't awake to hear it because--)

"Hey? Hey, you okay?" Seto's eyes opened lazily, and he watched Jou from under heavy eyelids. "Kaiiba? Hey.." Jou watched Seto's face, apprehension written on his features.

Just one more thing he could get blamed for.

The thought brought an uncharacteristic upwelling of sympathy for the blond, and Seto shut his eyes heavily. "..fine." He was aware of how exhausted it sounded and cleared his throat quietly. "..I'm fine. Just.. haven't been sleeping much."

"Yeah, I can tell." Jou's sarcasm was muted, though, and he set his books down. "Can you stay up long enough to finish the questions with me?" So utterly subdued. Seto wondered blearily just what the boy had been dreaming, if they'd been having the same dreams.

"...Sure. I'll try." Try? Seto Kaiiba did not try anything. He got it done.

"Nah. You're better off going to the nurse and sleeping for a bit. Think you can make it there on your own?" Jou asked it while he read the questions silently to himself.

"Yeah. Sure, mutt." The insult made Jou glance up sharply, but before he could retort, the absolute exhaustion written on Seto's face made him stop and slowly close his mouth. Something was going on, damnit. There was no rancor behind the insult. Not even the normal snide amusement.

And that... that was like Yug' without the puzzle, or Anzu hating to dance. Or, hell, like Honda without his shark-hair. It was just... wrong. It made his nerves tingle unpleasantly and a shiver do a river dance up and down his spine.

"...Damnit, Kaiba, you're supposed to be a snarky bastard!" Jou rose fast enough for his chair to be shoved back with a violent shriek. It made every eye turn to them. Well shit. Jou thought. Now what am I going to do?

~^~

*dramatic music* what an ending -- sheesh. XD

I liked it, especially poor tired Kaiba. ^^ And then with Jou getting mad about him NOT being snarky; very interesting, I like that touch.

And the little paranthesis-flashback-dream thingie was good. *thumbs up*

lol, maybe its Kaiba on sedatives. XD But I see where you're coming from. ^^

I just thought it was hilarious that for once, Kaiba wasn't giving Jou shit, and he got mad about it. Man, what a weird one Jou is. XD

Ah, that's nothing to feel bad about. Your Seth isn't a raging pervet, that's all; if anything, something to be proud of.
