Jaded Affection

By: Johnny Sorrow

Chapter 1: Misinterpretation

Warning: Yaoi Jounouchi/ Kaiba in this chapter. It will progress to Jounouchi/ Yugi and Jounouchi/ Kaiba in later chapters. The usual I don't own Yu gi oh, or any of the characters. I'm merely playing with them. And making absolutely no profit from writing this story. Plus being a teenager means I don't really have any money so if you feel you must sue, sue my dad he's a doctor.

Rated: R for Language, adult situations. And slight sexual themes. And for a very OOC mean Kaiba. Which is pretty bad considering how mean he can be to Jou in the series. But anyway the first chapter is kind of harsh, so beware.

***Jounouchi's POV***

"Maybe it's supposed to look like that." Examining the card closer I added, "What do you think Yugi?"

I lightly flicked the card to the shorter boy's desk, he picked it up and looked at the sharp black mark on the corner of the illustration.

"It looks like a misprint." Yugi smiled lightly, "take it to my grandpa's shop, he'll probably let you exchange it."

"Ok, thanks Yugi." I playfully patted his head messing up his perfectly arranged spikes before taking back the card. He laughed. He has the cutest laugh, well at least when he's himself. When he's. the other Yugi, not so cute.

The high-pitched ring of the school bell abruptly interrupted my train of thought. Our teacher Ms. Akatski entered the room swiftly offering random scoldings for talking.

"So. shall we begin? Open your math textbooks to page 267." She began with that nasal voice of hers, that sounds more like someone wheezing than talking, " We're starting unit four-"

The late entrance of an all too familiar student halted her sentence.

" Kaiba-kun, you must work on being on time. This is the 5th time in a row you've come to class late." She pushed up her thick-rimmed glasses with her middle and pointer finger, " I'll let it slide, but next time you'll get detention."

It figures. If it were anyone else, being late 5 times would be a death sentence. But not for Mr. Kaiba. He can do whatever he wants without the slightest repercussions.

"." Kaiba moved methodically to his seat without even offering an excuse as to why he was late.

The teacher started droning on about equations and math what not, I noticed that Kaiba wasn't even pretending to listen to her, he was reading some book. Probably about cards, that's all he ever does. I don't think I've ever seen him doing anything that wasn't card related. I bet he has his deck right now.

I noticed then that I had been staring at him. I'm pretty sure he noticed too, considering he was looking right back at me. He smiled, coyly and winked. I made a sort of quiet gag sound when I quickly looked away, my face holding a deep blush. I began to trace a circle with my finger on my desk, every few minutes sneaking quick glances at Kaiba until the class was over. I don't know why, but something about him caught my attention.

******

It seemed like forever. I checked the clock for like the 17th time in the last 30 minutes, it was 2:29 pm. I sighed. propping my head up with one arm just waiting for my 4th mod history class to end. The bell rang again, symbolizing the end of class and another school day. 'Finally' I thought to myself.

"Homework tonight is Page 342 in your text. Read pages 146-190 and answer the 14 review questions." Our teacher seemed almost as relieved as the students "and don't forget we have a test on Friday."

I darted out of the classroom, almost knocking four people down. I couldn't wait to get out of there. I noticed Yugi, Anzu and Honda in the hallway talking.

"Hey guys!" I ran over to them, waving. "So what do you guys want to do tonight?"

"We'll we were going over to Yugi's house to watch some movies." Honda smiled devilishly, "You probably shouldn't come, since Anzu rented 'The Ring', and we all know how easily you scare." Yugi and Anzu were obviously concealing laughter.

As much as I hated it he was right. Even Zombie cards scare me, I really have no resistance to the occult. I should probably make up an excuse to get out of it.

"Well as much as I'd like to prove you wrong." I hesitated searching for something, " I have a test to study for."

"Whatever, anyways lets get out of this place." Anzu grabbed Yugi's arm and pulled him along with her as she made her way through the schools front doors.

Honda and I followed, engaging in the usually post school banter, nothing of real substance to talk about. I did seem to return to the same topic after every sentence though.

"And you know, he is such an ass!" I said hotly, " He thinks he can do whatever he wants just because he has so much money and is so great at cards and is really good looking and." oops.

"What?" Honda looked confused, "Is really good looking?"

"umm. you know what I mean" I blushed again, shoving my hands in my pockets.

"What do you mean" This time Honda looked concerned.

"Girls, uh you know" I fumbled with the words, " I mean girls think he's really good looking."

"If you say so Jou" Anzu shrugged eyeing Yugi, " I never really thought he looked that good compared to other people"

Ugh. here she goes again. With her passive aggressive advances towards Yugi. I don't feel like listening to her right now. It always pisses me off. Yugi obviously doesn't like her, at least not like that, Bitch.

Shit. I realized I forgot my textbook in my locker, which I really need if I'm actually going to study. I normally wouldn't bother but I really need to pull my grade up for history if I want to pass this year.

"Hey guys, I forgot something." I waved to Yugi, " Don't wait up for me, I'll see you tomorrow." I looked back, we hadn't gotten to far from the school, and so I walked back, reflecting on why I was so hung up on Kaiba. I got to the front doors of the school and swung them open. Walking inside I quickly found my locker. I entered the combination and,

"Damn!" I pulled at the locker, it refused to budge, "Is this amusing to you!"

"Yes actually." What? How could. it's a locker. I just stared at the thing in disbelief, wide-mouthed.

"You really are that stupid aren't you?" Reality hit me. along with a shit- load of embarrassment, " Behind you jackass. Or should I say mutt."

I looked behind me and sure enough, there was Kaiba. His usual cocky demeanor in tact. Chin slightly tilted up, a slight smile edging from the right side of his mouth. And one thing I hadn't really noticed before. He had this musky kind of spicy smell, probably some kind of cologne. Whatever it was it smelled damn good, but I really didn't feel like a fight right now.

"Fuck off Kaiba." I turned to my locker again and re-entered the combination, to no avail.

"Wow, you're verbal repartee has truly wounded me." The brunette smirked, "Maybe if you're skills at duel monsters were as honed as your vulgarity you would have a chance at beating me."

"What the hell Kaiba?" I hissed, " I was just minding my own fucking business and you're here picking a fight?"

"tsk tsk." Kaiba shook his finger at me, "especially snappy today aren't we little puppy?"

"I'm not doing this today." I'm not going to do this, I'll be the bigger person and just walk away.

"Why don't you bark for me doggie?" He shrugged, " It looked like you wanted to hump my leg the way you were staring at me in class."

"Don't fucking flatter yourself!" I turned to him, " The only thing I want to do to you is beat the shit out of you!"

"Hmm?" He started to move closer to me, "Did I hit a nerve, not even you threaten violence at the drop of a hat."

"W-what are you doing?" He just kept moving closer to me, I edged away. "Get a-away from me!" My back hit the locker, but he just kept moving closer. He didn't say anything until his nose was almost touching mine.

"What's the matter puppy?" His voice was low, almost a whisper. " Do I make you nervous?"

"You." I was blushing, god damn it. My voice cracked. "You don't scare me." He leaned closer to me, our noses were touching and I could feel his breath on my face.

"You know, I could do whatever I wanted to you right now." He smiled, "and you couldn't stop me."

I lifted my arms and violently tried to push him away, He didn't budge, He grabbed my wrists and pinned my arms against the lockers. Kaiba was a lot stronger than I thought.he was right, I couldn't stop him.

"Stop it!, Get off of me!" I wanted to cry, but didn't. I wouldn't give him the satisfaction. "I swear I'll scream."

"Go ahead" he licked his lips, "It'll make it more fun." He pressed his knee in between my legs, and laughed.

I squirmed to try to break free of his grasp, it just seemed to make him more excited.

"I always hated you, but I never knew you were this sick!" I spit at him, my eyes were watering up. The spit had hit his right cheek, it rolled down his face but his expression didn't change.

"What can I say?" he pushed his knee against my groin, " You never knew me."

"S-stop!" Then it hit me he was going to do it, he was actually going to rape me. And you know the worst thing about it? I was.excited. But I didn't want this, tears were rolling down my cheeks, I started sobbing, "please."

"What's going on?" The voice was slight, it sounded like Ms. Akatski. She must have been far away. I heard footsteps. He let go of my hands and stepped away. Still smiling.

"Damn. That's inconvenient." He finally wiped the saliva off his face, "I guess I'll see you later. My little puppy." He winked at me, and left.

I sank to my knees crying and sobbing, I felt pathetic. Buy the time Ms. Akatski found me he had probably already left the school.

"Jounouchi-kun?" She looked down at me, her voice sounded concerned, "What happened? Are you Alright?" She reached down to help me up.

"Don't touch me!" I batted away her hand, "Just leave me alone!"

"You know I can't do that. If you won't talk to me I'll have to get the principal." She tapped her foot waiting for a response. "Fine, I'm going to get the principal. Don't move." She walked away.

I wiped streaming tears away with my sleeve, they wouldn't stop. I got up, and re entered the combination to my locker. It still didn't open. I pulled at it fruitlessly, sobbing relentlessly.

"I'm pathetic" I choked out between sobs, "open, open, open! Open you worthless piece of shit!" I started kicking the locker over and over again.

"Why won't you fucking open?!" I just kept on kicking it.

" Jounouchi-kun stop it!" Ms. Akatski had returned, with the school principal Mr. Nagare at her side. "You're going to break it. And then we would have to add vandalism to your not so shining permanent record." She grabbed my arm to stop me. I pulled away violently, glaring at Ms. Akatski.

"Don't fucking touch me!" I had almost stopped crying.

"Jounouchi-kun. A locker couldn't have made you this upset." Mr. Nagare seemed agitated, " Now lets go into my office and talk about what happened."

"Fine." I followed him through the halls. Ms. Akatski had left, I was glad to get a way from her.

"Its right through that door." He said pointing.

"I know where it is." I had been in his office a few times. Mainly for excessive talking, nothing big. We entered the small office, it had a gray color to it. Filled only with a desk and two chairs.

"Now sit down." I obeyed, he sat down behind the desk and looked at me, "Now vandalism is a serious offense young man, you better have a good explanation."

"Would sexual assault do?" I crossed my arms and looked away from him. I was glad I had finally gained control over myself and stopped crying.

"What are you talking about?" He looked angry, " You were alone in the hallway."

"That's because he left." I wanted to say dumb ass, but thankfully I didn't.

"Who are you talking about?" It looked like he almost believed me.

"Seto Kaiba." It was almost difficult just to say his name, " He tried to rape me, the only reason he didn't was because Ms. Akatski came along."

"So Ms. Akatski saw Seto Kaiba try to rape you?" He raised an eyebrow at me.

"No." This was getting irritating. "He heard her coming and left. She didn't see him."

"So Seto Kaiba was raping you but stopped when he heard Ms. Akatski coming?" He sighed, "Can you understand why I find this a little hard to believe?"

"Look Mr. Nagare its true!" I slammed my hands on his desk, "He tried to rape me!"

"Control yourself Jounouchi-kun!" He looked pissed, " First of all, why would Seto Kaiba try to rape you? Secondly even if what you claim actually did happen what proof do you have? And lastly, Seto Kaiba is an important contributor to this school any unfounded and personal attacks on him will not be taken lightly."

"I don't believe this!" I stood up, " So just because he gives money to this school means that he can get away with trying to rape me?"

"Well, I don't believe that you would insult my intelligence and waste this institution's time with your obviously fictitious and frankly pathetic cry for attention." He grabbed a yellow slip of paper and started writing on it, " This is for detention, all week and your lucky I don't give you more for destruction of school property. Which you will have to pay for. Now go home, and stop wasting your pathetic existence." He pointed to the door.

"Fine." I ripped the detention slip from his hand, "Thanks for all your help." I stormed out of his office.

I can't believe this! I cant fucking believe this, he didn't even take me seriously. I walked through the halls, cursing.

"This fucking sucks." I looked back at my locker, and just kept walking. " How could he not believe me." And swiftly my anger was replaced with fear. I realized that if Kaiba could get away with this, what else was he going to do to me?

I pushed open the school doors. It was raining. How appropriate. I slowed my pace allowing myself to be thoroughly soaked. I started toward my house, just thinking.

"What the hell am I going to do?" I kicked a stone and watched as it scraped against the side of a building, "Maybe he won't do anything. Maybe he'll just ignore me. Yeah right."

I know Yugi will believe me but what good will it do to tell him? The school won't believe him either, the great Seto Kaiba would never even look at someone as loathsome as me. Let alone try to rape them. It's just going to upset him. I'll have to deal with this on my own. I walked a few more blocks until I got to my families apartment. I checked my pockets.

"Shit." I forgot my key, I pulled at the door. It was unlocked. "At least one thing went my way today." I pushed my shoes off and locked the door. All the lights were off I guess no was home.

"Shizuka!" I called just to make sure. No answer. I went into the bathroom and flicked the light switch. I turned the faucet on and watched it for a moment before I leaned my head down and splashed a little water on me. I grabbed a damp towel off of the bathroom floor and lightly wiped my face. My eyes were sore, obviously from crying so much. I looked at myself in the mirror. My face was completely drained of any color, with the exception of my eyes, they were bright red and puffy. I stared at the reflection like I didn't even remember the person staring back. I pushed away from the sink and turned the light out.

I moved through the dark apartment until I reached my room. I closed the door, and collapsed on my bed. I curled up next to the headboard, not even bothering to change out of my wet clothes.

"What am I going to do?" I just laid there, I don't know for how long. In the darkness until I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
