80 Power Couple 4

"…Yeah because that's what a girl wants to hear the guy she has feelings for say," Jasmine snorted, "Really, you have the emotional depth of a thimble."

"Hey!" Yarden glared, offended, "I at least qualify as a tea spoon."

Despite herself and the situation, Jasmine giggled, "Well, at least you can recognise that much," she mused, before shaking her head, "It won't work out, there's too many reasons for it not to."

"And why can't it?" Yarden challenged, "I mean, I wasn't expecting this at all, and like I said would have been content with any single one of you girls, but given the chance…"

"We're fifteen," Jasmine smiled, a smile that did not reach her eyes, a sad little smile, "What do we know about relationships really? We're supposed to explore them at this age. It'll be hard enough with one girlfriend eating into your personal life, especially one like Lexi, and you want to add me as well? And even maybe Mindy?"

To be perfectly honest, Yarden hadn't thought that far ahead yet. His mind was still mostly on the upcoming threats he would have to deal with in the immediate future beyond worrying about how to balance a relationship.

Honestly, he thought it would be easy in comparison to saving the world.

Though, up for dealing with a bunch of that shit as he was, Jaden was on his own when it came to Yubel, because super extra awesome badass Scotsman he may be, but he wasn't touching that crazy with a fifty foot penis, that was also a lightsaber.

"And even beyond that, have you thought of how to even manage such a thing?" Jasmine pushed on, "Like, I want my boyfriend to myself, I don't like wanna be wanting to hang out with you, only for you to be busy having sex with one of your other girlfriends."

….Well when she put it like that, he could definitely see the aversion. Granted, not like he didn't already understand her position in the first place. He was just being a greedy fuckface cunt.

"And then there's the keeping the relationship itself afloat," Jasmine continued on again before he could get a word in edge wise, "Three girlfriends, really? Like, I know I said before I want a man that can support me and make sure I have a fulfilling life, but, doing that for three girls? It's already a lot to expect for one!"

She really had thought this through huh? It was funny, that the one between the three girls of Alexis, Mindy and Jasmine, that the one that was most down to earth and mature about her life and future….was the one who freely claimed she was a gold digger.

And Yarden knew, he understood all her points. But still, there was a chance. He was being selfish, he knew that, but he'd be a fool to pass up the chance to grasp all he wanted.

He had the power. He was well on his way to having the money. Maybe he lacked the maturity still, but that would come in time.

"We're fifteen, yeah, and there's a lot of hoops to jump through, and I'm being a selfish asshole of the highest order," he agreed, "But so what? A little hardship like that isn't anything to give you up for, I won't favour Alexis over you, and I'm already well on my way to being able to take care of even three girls."

Left unsaid was the fact that Alexis would most likely go pro herself one day. Or, at least become a professor here at Duel Academy like she did in canon in the end, and that was quite the salary itself.

"Besides, you grew up with Alexis, you're best friends, like sisters even," he stressed, "It's not like she's some stranger or you're uncomfortable around each other, hell, you even bathe together in that hot spring you guys have over at the girls dorm."

Jasmine's eyes widened at that last part, "How do you know about that?!" she demanded.

…Oh, wait, shit! Think of an excuse quickly moron!

"Alexis told me," Yarden lied as easily as he breathed, like a piece of shit, god he was a cunt, "Either way, isn't it worth at least trying? I like Alexis a lot, but I like you a lot as well, and it's murder to even think about choosing between either of you."

When he finished, Jasmine just stared at him for a few moments before shaking her head and smiling softly, "You're right about one thing, you really are selfish." the auburn haired girl mused.

"I am," he agreed without any attempt to deny it, "But can you blame me when both you and Alexis are on the table?"

"Oh I definitely can," Jasmine snorted, "But I can understand at least. But you're missing something."

Yarden blinked, "What's that?" he asked, confused.

"You're dating Lexi right now," Jasmine shook her head, "That's a bigger challenge than dating any other girl in of itself. Maybe try seeing if you can manage that challenge right now instead of trying to make promises like this."

And before you could say anything else, she pushed off of the wall and made to leave, but paused, "…Ah what the hell, one for the road big guy?" she turned to him with a small grin.

He blinked, "You're taller than me." he pointed out on reflex.

"Semantics." Jasmine snorted, and then stepped forward, her warm arms wrapping around his neck and her lips met his.

It was an amazing kiss, that was for sure. Soft, warm and tender. But ended far too fast for him.

"Don't worry, I'm not gonna go mope, you have enough on your plate with Lexi without having to worry about me," Jasmine winked, and then just walked away, "See how your relationship looks like with Lexi in a month, then we'll talk." she called over her shoulder as she sauntered away.

Yarden stroked his lips lightly as he watched her leave, before his shoulders slumped and he sighed.

"Hmm, you gotta work on your game master," the voice of Dark Magician girl rang in his ears, as she appeared beside him, floating in the air, "Lord Atem had multiple brides lined up, his own harem to be before everything went to crap."

"Hmph, why not just claim the wench if you want her Master?" Serpent Night Dragon appeared on his other side with a scoff.

…Oh great, and here comes the back seat commentary.

Wait.

Yarden paused and frowned, "…Did you just claim Atem is manlier than me?" he glared at Dark Magician Girl.

That was totally implied there, right?

"If the shoe fits," Dark Magician Girl giggled in amusement, eyes teasing, "If he didn't go kapoot slapping down Zorc, he'd have had a massive harem, and so far you only have one living girl to call your own."

"…You'll regret this when I can touch you." Yarden vowed vengeance.

In response, Dark Magician Girl floated around to face away you and wiggled her beautifully shaped rear end in his face, barely covered by her tiny little pink skirt, so much so her lovely, full round arse cheeks were practically in full view, "Oh no, is master going to spank me~!"
