The food was prepared by the time it was six. Yugi woke up his grandfather and they filled their plates. To keep the birthday man out of the prepared living room, they all convinced the older man to eat out under the stars on a blanket. He thought it was a great idea.
Yugi was an excellent cook, Seto admitted as he bit into a piece of crab sushi. The Motou made three types of sushi, chicken teriyaki, and tempura, with some help from Ryou, of course. Jou just cooked the rice.
They sat at the back of the cabin over by the cliff, watching the remaining orange glows of the sun disappear behind the water. There was just enough light to eat under, and they all talked about the good times, even when those who weren't there couldn't say much. Yami and Bakura didn't eat, of course, and Seto sat in silence as he listened intently to embarrassing stories of Yugi's childhood.
The CEO had done his best to ignore the Pharaoh until now. When Seto first saw him out of the Puzzle that evening, he just politely inclined his head. Yami responded, but that was it. The brunette began to ponder about it question earlier: would he seduce Yami just to get what he wanted?
It was driving him insane already to be around the Spirit. Sure, he was a little upset that he was cooped up in that damned triangle. However, it was a lot worse when Yami could be seen and touched. Anzu… oh, Anzu; if she valued her life, she would stay a safe distance away from Yami.
" Kaiba-kun, are you all right?"
Seto blinked and slightly shook his head. He looked up and saw that the attention of everyone was on him. Yugi's question still hung in the air, and Seto weakly smiled.
" I'm fine," he replied and ate another piece of sushi. The others looked unconvinced, but said nothing.
" I remember when Yug had a crush on that Sashaki girl," said Jou suddenly, laughing when Yugi turned beet red. " That was at freshman year, but Yugi was going gaga over her."
" Jou!" cried Yugi. " That's embarrassing!"
Jou chuckled. " I know. You would space out whenever you saw her."
Seto risked a glance at the Tomb Robber, who looked like he wanted to strangle someone whether it be Jou or Sashaki. The CEO smiled and shook his head.
" So!" countered Yugi. " I remember when you had a crush on Byun Kari!" He giggled like mad and Jou almost pounced on him. Ryou looked on.
" Kari?" the accented teen repeated, incredulous. " You mean the co-captain of the cheer leading squad? When was this?" Jou flushed and Yugi sat up straight.
" That was a little after school started this year," replied Yugi. " I wouldn't worry much, Ryou," he added cheerfully. Everyone sweat dropped.
" What about you, Yami?" asked Anzu, turning so sweet as she spoke to the Pharaoh. " Have you ever had a crush on anyone?" Seto rolled his eyes. She was obviously flirting with him.
Yami had his legs stretched out as he leaned on his elbows behind him. He glance up at the stars and held his gaze there for a while. Those crimson eyes grew hazy.
" I mean, you do have your memories back, right?" asked the girl, secretly hoping that the Pharaoh would say it was her in their past lives. She was his Healer, after all.
Yami didn't reply as his attention was still upwards. Everyone looked at him more thoughtfully as he stayed in that position for a while, probably reminiscing or trying to rack his brains for an answer. Yugi silently ' oh-ed' and continued to eat a bit sullenly. Bakura turned away from the Pharaoh, pain fleeting over his face for a brief moment.
Seto was curious, and he wondered if the silence meant that Yami was hurt in the past. Perhaps he had to leave his loved one when he was sealed in the Puzzle, or maybe he fell in love with a commoner and their love was forbidden. Perhaps she died of an illness. These thoughts made Seto feel pity towards his arch rival. Sure, he was hurt to know that someone was already there in his heart. It was just that… who was the lucky one? Was it someone in their group? Was it Anzu? The idea made his chest ache.
" Yami?" question Ryou, tilting his head. He glanced at his dark counter part, who shook his head and inwardly spoke to him. Ryou gasped, finally understanding, and looked away. Jou already knew, for he was the first to notice things, and he was Yugi's closest friend.
Sugoroku cleared his throat. " What's with all the silence?" he joked. " It was only a question."
Anzu pouted but said nothing. Maybe Yami wanted to tell her somewhere more private first before telling everyone else.
" Kaiba-kun," began Yugi. " did you ever like anyone?" All except Yami's attention zeroed in on Seto, and he unconsciously flushed at the attention.
