~Previous Chapter~

As the two albinos approached the table, Bakura glared and growled at the CEO. Tying their hands back, Seto picked up the stopwatch again. "If you're ready…go!" Seto watched in amusement as Bakura wanted to do things his way, despite never having to diaper a baby in his life. Poor Ryou was trying to convince his dark half that he was going about it all wrong. After five minutes of arguing, Seto stopped the two for fear of Bakura stabbing either Seto for making him play the game, or Ryou for being incompetent.

"Okay, Pharaoh. It's your turn…" Kaiba grinned evilly. He'd been waiting to see how well Yami would do with this game, especially if Yugi was really serious about wanting to have one.

~Chapter 17 B~

Kaiba grinned at Yami. "Come on Pharaoh. This shouldn't be hard for you." He teased.

Yami glared at the CEO. "Come Yugi. Let's do this so I can watch Kaiba make a bigger ass of himself." He said, grabbing his light's hand.

When the two tri-haired teens boys were ready, Yami nodded for Seto to start the timer and quickly started giving Yugi orders mentally.

//Aibou, fold the cloth in half, then wrap the ends around like you normally would.//

Yugi did the left side while Yami matched him on the right. /Like that?//

//Yes. Now grab a pin and open it. Slide it through where my fingers are. Ouch! Damnit! Not through my finger little one.// Yami yelped in pain.

Laughing because Yami swore through their mind link, Yugi repositioned the pin. /Sorry, love./

Yami got another pin ready while Yugi gathered the material. The smaller teen cringed as Yami's pin slid through, expecting to be poked himself. Seeing the doll was finished, Yami moved away from the table and dragging Yugi behind him, walked to Kaiba and pushed the timer button. "Beat that, Priest." He said, knowing that jab would rile Seto up. Taking the stopwatch from Seto, Yami held it out to Tristan. "Well, what's it say?"

Looking, Tristan replied "Two minutes and twenty seconds."

Kaiba went to help Jou to his feet for their turn. "You better hope we win this, Mutt." He growled.

"Have you done this before?" Jou whispered nervously. He'd never had to change a diaper before.

Seto responded, "Mokuba."

"Are you two ready?" Yami asked. Seto nodded as soon as Yugi finished tying their hands together. "Go!"

Not giving Jou time to think, Seto folded the cloth and had one side pinned in just under a minute. Starting on the second side, he ran into a slight problem. He couldn't bend his arm enough to manipulate the other pin. "Shit, Jou, fasten this for me. Hurry!" he urged.

As soon as Jou's hands were off the pin, Seto glared at Yami, "Well?"

"Not bad." He said, looking down at the numbers. "Here Tristan, what's it say?"

"Two minutes, ten seconds." He reported.

Everyone was stunned. It was Ryou that found his voice first. "Kaiba, that was incredible. Where'd you learn to do that one handed?"

"Yeah, do tell us how the wealthiest man in the city knows how to change a diaper so quickly." Bakura jabbed.

Now sitting on the couch with Jou, Seto turned to the Tomb Robber and said coolly, "Remember, I have a younger brother I had to care for."

Tea spoke up, "Okay, that explains the diapering, but to do it one handed?"

"You'd be amazed what you can learn to do one handed." As if to emphasize his point, he leaned down and kissed the top of Jou's head.

"Okay, we're going to have one more game before we get to the real food." Yami promised. "This one will be in two heats, mostly because of the liquid involved."

Yugi had gone into the kitchen and come back with eight baby bottles. Four were filled with a red liquid and four were filled with an amber liquid.

"Before hand, Yugi and I guessed on what each of us would be drinking." Yami explained. "Four bottles are filled with beer and the other four are cranberry juice."

Yugi added, "We figured Bakura, Tristan, Seto and Yami would handle the beer easier than the rest of us. Tea, Ryou, Jou, and myself will be drinking the juice."

"The object is to be the first to completely finish the bottle without removing the top." He glared at Bakura, "Or using Shadow Powers."

Tristan eyed his group warily. Two potentially dangerous, drunken spirits, a lightweight CEO, and himself. He'd only witnessed Seto drunk once. For being such a hard ass, Kaiba wasn't too good at holding his liquor. The spirits were just terrifying when intoxicated. Bakura tended to set random things on fire.

Yugi held up the beer bottles first. "Okay, you four line up against the wall first." He passed the bottles to Yami, Bakura, Tristan, and Seto. "Bottles ready?" Everyone held their bottle up. "Go!" Yugi started.

Everyone started drinking eagerly, but encountered problems quickly. Bakura took a few swallows, and then shook the bottle as if he was seeing why nothing was coming out. Seto wasn't having too much luck either. He was only managing a few droplets each time. Tristan was having the most luck, having half the bottle gone. Yami wasn't making any progress on the bottle. He caught his light laughing at him until he saw the Eye of Horus start glowing.

/Yami, relax, it's only a game./

//Be quiet, hikari. I want the beer and I'll blast this Ra-be-damned bottle to the Shadows to get it.//

That sent Yugi over the edge. Beer was a rare treat for his dark half, and he was amused that Yami was being so stubborn. Thankfully, Tristan finished his bottle before Yami's met an untimely end.

"Congratulations Tristan!" Yugi offered. He handed him another bottle, but this one was filled with various hard candies.

Smiling, he replied, "Thanks. You guys have some of my favorites in here." He commented turning the bottle over.

The others had given up and taken the tops off. Bakura and Yami were glaring at each other while clutching their bottle protectively against them. Kaiba wasn't as tipsy as Tristan bet as he watched the CEO finish his bottle off. Seto proved it as he saw Yami and Bakura's staring contest and started the next heat himself.

"Tea, Ryou, Yugi, and Jou, you guys are up." He called grabbing the remaining bottles.

The four got up and stood along the wall. Seto handed everyone a bottle. "Bottle up!" He began. Four bottles simultaneously went in the air. "Chug!"

Tea started after everyone else, as she was trying to find a lady-like way to drink. Jou was doing okay until he got half way through. Seto caught sight of the twins moving and knew that Jou wouldn't last too much longer before getting nauseous. Ryou looked like he was concentrating intensely on the task.

"Hey Einstein!" Bakura yelled, slightly tipsy. "Less thinkin' and more drinkin'!!"

Hearing that, Jou snorted some of the juice from trying not to laugh at Bakura's comment, thus eliminating from his chance at winning. Yugi was working on the last few sips of his bottle. When Bakura made his comment, he raised his bottle high in the air and started laughing.

Seto held Yugi's prize out to him. It was another baby bottle filled with small flavored tubes of lube. Watching, as Yami turned crimson, Seto ribbed the Pharaoh, "Looks like someone's going to be busy tonight!" He continued, ignoring the looks thrown from Yami's direction, "That's all the games we have. If you want, there's chicken, rigatoni, and anything else that Yugi has put out in the kitchen.

After the mad dash for food, Jou pulled Yugi aside and asked, "Hey Yug…how'd you drink your bottle that fast? I kept sucking and not much was coming out.

Yami's voice broke Yugi's thoughts. //Aibou, do NOT tell him what you're thinking. What we do behind closed doors is our business.//

"Umm…a lot of practice?" the small teen offered.

When everyone had finished eating, Yami gathered everyone back to the living room. Seto and Jou took the couch while everyone gathered around them. "Jou, Seto, I know you want to do this on your own, but we all wanted to get the twins something." Yami stated.

Tea handed Jou a box wrapped in shiny blue paper. "It's nothing much. Just something I thought was cute." She said as the blonde tore into the paper. Inside were two colorful rattles. One was a dark green while the other was a bright yellow.

"Thanks Tea. I didn't even think about getting rattles and things." Jou looked guiltily at Kaiba.

Tristan handed over a long flat box. Inside were four little outfits. One set of sleepers for each twin, and a T-shirt and pants set. "I thought you could use some clothes for them."

"I'm sure we will." Seto smiled as he picked up one of the sleepers.

Bakura handed over his present from him and Ryou. Inside the crisp paper were a bottle warmer and a set of bottles. Each bottle had a different animal on each one. There was a lion, a camel, an elephant, and a tiger.

"Thanks guys!" Said Jou. "That will be very helpful at feeding time."

Ryou nodded, "We figured with twins, you'd need all the help you can get to make things easier."

Yami got up and returned dragging a huge box wrapped with various colors of paper. "This one's from Yugi and I." Both Seto and Jou worked at the papers. Opening it revealed a double stroller.

"I didn't know what color to get." Yugi blushed as Jou lifted out the red cloth. "If you want, Yami and I will help put it together for you."

Seto accepted, "Thanks. Better your fingers getting pinched than mine." He kidded.

"Guys…" whispered Jou, "You really didn't have to do this." He said, in awe. He knew that there were months when his two friends were just barely making it.

Yugi laid a hand on Jou's shoulder. "If we couldn't afford it, we wouldn't have done it." He smiled warmly.

Jou looked at everyone. "Guys, thank you all. I hope in the next few months, you'll be there when the twins come." He put a hand on his belly.

Seto added his own thanks, "All your gifts are appreciated. I want to thank you for being here and supporting Jou. You really are great friends to him, and to me as well. Thank you."

Everyone began to gather their belongings. After seeing their friends off, Yami, Yugi, Kaiba, and Jou began cleaning up. Seto was keeping a very close eye on his puppy to make sure the blonde wasn't doing anything dumb, however Jou was holding a garbage bag for Yugi.

"Yami, thank you." Kaiba smiled. "I think Jou enjoyed everything. And your gift…" he trailed.

Looking directly into Kaiba's blue eyes, Yami responded, "It's okay. You're beginning to realize what we were trying to show you during Duelist Kingdom and Battle City. You don't have to rely on only yourself anymore. You've got real friends now."

"Thank you." Kaiba whispered humbly.

Sometime later, Seto and Jou were just pulling into their driveway, the Avalanche loaded with the gifts. Seto carried the stroller into the house leaving Jou to carry the smaller items. Once inside, Seto embraced the blonde tightly. "I haven't given you my presents yet." He whispered in his puppy's ear.

"Mmm…what might that be, Dragon?"

"Meet me in our room in ten minutes." Seto kissed Jou softly before heading upstairs.

Jou occupied himself with putting away the gifts before heading upstairs to see what his Dragon had planned. Reaching the door, he was two small boxes on the bed, but no Seto. "Dragon?" He called, worried.

From behind, he heard Seto's unmistakable purr, "I'm right here, Love." He put an arm around Jou's waist and led him onto the bed. It was then that Jou got a good look at the brunette. Dressed in only black silk boxers, Jou inhaled sharply at the sight of his half naked Dragon as he lay back against the pillows. "Seto…" he breathed.

Climbing in beside Jou, the brunette relaxed. "It's been a long time, hasn't it." He traced Jou's cheek with the tips of his fingers. Picking up one box, Seto placed it in Jou's hands. "Open it."

Jou carefully opened the black velvet box. Inside was a gold ring. On the inside of the band, was engraved both their names separated by two interlocking hearts. "Seto, it's beautiful." Jou admired, simply staring at the band.

Removing the ring from the box, Seto carefully placed it on Jo's right ring finger, then kissed the band. "I love you forever, Katsuya." He then picked up the remaining box and held it out to Jou.

It was another black velvet box. Opening this one, Jou found a silver dog tag on a long silver chain. Engraved on the tag was their wedding picture, their first as newlyweds. Jou looked at Seto unable to speak, his eyes shining with tears. Seto removed the necklace, and slid it easily over Jou's head. "There's one more, but it's not quite ready yet." Seto promised.

Jou's features clouded darkly. "I didn't give you anything." He stated sadly.

Rather than being upset, Seto pulled his puppy close to him. "Baby, I already have my presents." He began to massage Jou's belly.

The twins began moving as much as they could in their ever-shrinking quarters. Jou moaned from Seto's touch and the movements within him, "Dragon, please…" he growled, arching into the contact.

"Not tonight, Pup. You've had a long day, and I don't think you'd enjoy it too much."

Giving a frustrated sigh, Jou leaned over and was content with resting his head on Seto's shoulder. "Fine. You owe me one, though." With a yawn, he laced his fingers with Seto's long ones. As they drifted off to sleep, Jou moved their hands to the middle of his stomach and allowed the soft kicks to lull them to their dreams.
