Who: Otogi, Pegasus, Kaiba When: Friday night, the end of the first week back at school Where:Kaiba Corp board room Why: Business stuff (new tourney? ^^)and Kaiba angst Rating: PG13 to start
Seto walked in silently and sat down in his usual seat for meetings.
He looked pale, sleepless, and...of all things...nervous.
Seto would look pale and sleepless pretty often usually...But nervous? That simply wasn't Kaiba Seto.
But, despite how strange it was, he sat there fidgeting with a pen in his hand and constantly looking around him. Paranoid. Paranoid, sleepless, pale, and overall sick-looking.
Pegasus occupied himself with loading the holographic models of the structure he had designed into the display system here. It would be projected in lovely 3D in the center of the black glass boardroom table
( ... )
Seto simply glanced up at Pegasus for a moment before going back to fidgeting with his pen.
He didn't want anything to happen today. He had wanted it to be a normal work day without the presence of the silver-haired man. He didn't want Pegasus to be here. What if he found out. What if he-?
It was supposed to arrive today. It would be harder to hide if Pegasus decided to use his Eye. It would be harder to use if Pegasus knew.
Otogi growled under his breath. What the fuck?! A business meeting AT NIGHT? What the hell?! He had better things to do rather than deal with whatever insipid thing Pegasus had in mind. He had 2 reports due on Monday's for kami's sake - and they weren't for his office either!
Not to mention, he and Varon were working out their wedding details as well. True, he had just told Jou and the others who were rampantly ecstatic for them - save for Anzu, who no one had seen much of. According to Jou, she was suffering a broken heart after Mai's mysterious disappearance and so she seemed to be taking it out on anyone and everyone around her. She'd come around soon enough.
However...with all that taken into consideration, once again, Pegasus had better have a DAMN good reason for pulling him away from prime study/sex time.
Pegasus didn't waste any time before commencing with his presentation and making sure everyone was caught up and on track with the project at hand.
The sparkling white and blue image of the new Dueling arena lit up in the center of the room. It had sweeping lines and towers and glass prisms spiking out on the far side to enclose the restaurant area. It was a truly expansive and all encompassing entertainment venue as well as being modern and elegantly designed. The silhouette from the air resembling a BEWD wrapped around a crystal treasure. The wings composed a clever cover to close over the dueling field in case of bad weather.
Pegasus was not without the talent to back up his position. He had the vision and experience to pull together massive projects like this all over the world. Every detail was covered and he directed his subordinates like a conductor leading an orchestra. If Kaiba could throw himself back into his work then Pegasus felt he could do the same.
But at the moment...Seto found himself unable to concentrate on his work. He couldn't concentrate at all.
...If he told Pegasus...What would he think?...Would he be overjoyed? Happy? Or...would he reject him further? Believe he was a freak of nature and wish him to be out of his sight.
Otogi glanced over seeing Kaiba's distracted look. "Oy, Kaiba!" he hissed nudgeing him awake. "If I have to put up with this, so do you, now pay attention" he growled, before glancing at Kaiba's outfit. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but...there was something...off about the other man.
Pegasus watched Kaiba sleeping, the early morning light casting a certain softness to his features. He looked terribly young at the moment.
It made Pegasus feel guilty for getting him into such a mess. But, Kaiba must have really wanted this. It wasn't as if there was any doubt at all on his side. All the uncertainty came from Pegasus, all the mistrust and all the doubt he saw in Kaiba, he had really put there himself.
He got up from his seat by the window and came over to sit on the side of the bed. It would be time for his lovely blue eyes to wake up soon. But he hated to be the one to break such peace. He allowed himself the luxury of brushing a few strands of the mans hair away from his face. Such a rich sable colour, he envied it. He would have to paint him sometime. Perhaps even later today...
Seto sighed softly in his sleep, subconsciously leaning into the man's touch. Soft. Comforting. He was actually there and wasn't leaving anytime soon. Hopefully.
"...Pegasus..." He whispered softly, turning onto his side and continuing to sleep without interruption of whatever dream he was having.
Pegasus stroked his cheek with the back of a few fingers. He was so very lovely when he dreamed. Such wonderful contented energy. Pegasus sighed into the feeling. If only he were so calm when he was awake.
"Do you want to get up now? Dr. Crandall will be here soon to check on the baby..."
He reminded gently, hoping the reality wasn't too harsh first thing in the morning. His own nerves were still shot from having to see the Doctor last night and he wasn't even the one who was examined.

...Most likely he wouldn't believe him...
