This is my life
It's not what it was before
All these feelings I've shared
And these are my dreams
That I'd never lived before
Somebody shake me 'cause I
I must be sleeping

Chapter One

Fuck. Six Thirty in the morning. On a Saturday morning. I cursed myself for forgetting to turn off the alarm clock. I can never get back to sleep when I have already woken up. Oh well, I had the day off, I could plan what I was going to do.

I turned over in bed. Jou was lying on his side, snoring ever so slightly. It was cute, I thought. I put my arm around him, and nuzzled into his neck and his soft golden hair. He stirred ever so slightly, and I let go of him. No need to wake him up this early to.

I sat up and got out of bed, walking across my room in only my boxers. Thank god for silk boxers, so easy to put on, especially after a good night of nice, hard…um…never mind.

Ten-minute shower, threw on some old clothes, and I was down in my kitchen, pouring a nice cup of hot coffee, and reading the morning news. I prodded my cereal with my spoon and flipped lazily through the articles, none of which caught my interest.

I turned my head to the sound of someone coming down the stairs. Jou walked in moments later, ruffling his already messy hair, dressed in a plain white T-shirt and a pair of plaid pajama bottoms. He looked cute. Always does.

"Breakfast?"

"Cereal," I said, looking down at my own and gesturing my spoon to the unopened cupboard. He didn't say anything, but just grabbed a bowl and moments later, began shoveling brown flakes into his mouth.

"Why did you have to wake up so fucking early?"

"Forgot about the alarm. I thought you went back to sleep anyways."

Jou shook his head, making his hair dance around his face, "Naw, I half heard it anyways, but I was hoping you might stay around for a bit of snuggling."

"Didn't feel like it this morning. Being woken up by an alarm doesn't really get you into a snuggling mood."

Jou nodded, "Indeed."

I folded the paper and left it on the kitchen table. "Any plans for today?"

"Haven't really thought about it."

Ah, early morning conversations, where you brain is just waking up, and the only words you can remember, are those that were taught to you in pre-school. It is what most of our conversations consisted of, unless some breaking news happened the day before, then it just kind of flows. Jou also hadn't had his shower, making him just a tad more sleepy then usual.

"What do you want to do today?" I didn't really care what we did, just as long as we went together, and got out of the house.

"Dunno," Jou shugged, "what is there to do in Domino?"

"Not much," I admitted. And that was the truth. Movies, arcade, those were things you did when you felt like going crazy. I felt like spending an afternoon with the person I loved more than anything…well…except for Mokuba. He was still lucky enough to be sleeping though.

Jou opened my folded paper to the events section. "Let us see. Car show?"

I shook my head.

"Yea, seems boring to me to. Hmm, water park, no, fair, not really. Want to just go out for lunch or something?"

Seemed like a good idea. Between working and school, we didn't ever really get to spend quality time together, except for late night rendezvous. But I had taken today off, hoping for an enjoyable afternoon. Looks like plans we back on track.

"I still need a shower, we can go after," a playful grin played on the Pup's lips, "Wanna join me?"

I turned my head to face him, obviously amused, "I already had a shower."

"But you are still dirty." He gave me a very hefty elevator stare.

"I most certainly am not," I said, adding a voice of offended sarcasm.

Jou walked over to me and gave me a light kiss. Damn, his lips always felt good. The shower idea became a bit lighter in my mind. Suddenly, me head felt unusually wet, and something was running down my cheek.

Jou placed his empty cereal bowl down on the table, and cheekily said, "See? I told you, you were dirty."

I rolled my eyes and chased him up the stairs.

Once again, I found myself in my room, with only my boxers on. Jou was somewhere in the bathroom, mumbling about only god knows what, and I was still trying to get tiny pieces of Cornflakes out of my hair. I smelled like breakfast. Damn.

Jou was already in the shower when I walked into the bathroom. "So where did you want to go for lunch?" It really didn't matter to me; I had been to most restaurants in Domino anyways, so whatever Jou chose was good for me. He wasn't answering me though.

"Katsuya?" I stepped closer to the shower, and roughly got pulled into it. I found myself sitting at the bottom of the spacious bathtub, swallowing a large amount of water, and inhaling the steam from the hot water. I open my eyes to see Jou infront of me, just grinning.

"Thanks," I said dully, with little emotion. He could have at least asked me to take my clothes off first. Did he not know that these boxers were dry clean only?

"You are a bit underdressed for the party richboy!" He laughed, obviously amused at his actions. I stood up under the showerhead. At least any remnants of Cornflakes would be gone from my hair now. I closed my eyes and ran my fingers through my soaked hair. Yup, most were gone.

I could feel someone's arms wrap around my waist and chest, and soon feather light kisses were being placed on my neck. Did I already mention his lips always felt good?

I sure didn't want to miss out on this. I turned around and placed one of my hands on the sexy crease in his back, where it is just meeting his hips. That was kind of my spot. I pushed my lips into his. He had the ability to make me want him when I wasn't even in the mood for anything.

"Like I said, you are a bit overdressed."

I could feel his hands sliding down my waist, and I could almost feel the grin through his lips as I kissed him a bit more roughly.

Needless to say, the boxers were soon left on the bathroom floor, completely forgotten about.

We had left around twelve. I figured if we had lunch, we could spend the rest of the day doing something else. I guess Jou had the same idea.

Like I said, we didn't really get out ver much. We had only been living together for two months, after dating for seven, but I swear, I wanted to spend the rest of my life with this kid.

I turned my head away from the road for just a moment. The window was open, and Jou's hair was waving slightly. It looked sexy. He had just thrown on a T-shirt and a pair of jeans. That suited him just fine, he always looked good.

I turned my eyes back onto the road. Thank god for sunglasses. It was a nice day. I didn't really care how I looked, I just threw on a shirt, some pants, and a coat.

"Ever been there?"

I turned my eyes to take a look at where Jou pointed.

"Yea, it ain't that good. The sushi is alright though."

"Man, I am starving, just pull over so we can get some grub."

I laughed, "When are you not hungry?"

Jou turned his head to me, laughing aswell, "When we're fucking."

I shook my head, grinning, "Good answer."

"But I seriously am hungry Seto, I want some food."

"Alright," I began to look down the street I was on for a restaurant, "Just keep your eyes open then, and tell me when you see something."

"There is one over there." He was pointing to the left at an Indian restaurant.

"Sure." Like I said, I didn't really care where we ate.

"I have been meaning to ask you something Seto."

I took my eyes off the wheel again, and looked at him, "Shoot."

"Well…" He was hesitating. This couldn't be good, could it?

"Hey, you can tell me, I promise I won't get mad."

He looked right into my eyes, and gave me a weak smile. What was it that I could see behind his honey brown eyes? Fear? Sadness? Did Jou have any reason to feel bad?

"Well…" He started again. I already heard that part. "It is just-"

I never got to hear what he was going to say. I just saw his eyes widen in fear, and he shouted, "Kaiba! Look out!"

I snapped my head to the road again, making it hurt like hell. I didn't have enough response time though. My foot crashed against the brake, and I spun to the right. Not enough time. The truck honked its horn, and I could hear its breaks screech, trying to stop. I could feel a searing pain in my head, and then pure nothing.
