Nikki: thanks for that…on with the story…enjoy…

Chapter 1- A Christmas Carroll Normal POV

Tinsel and twinkling lights, glitter and stupid songs, freezing cold weather and fat men dropping down your chimney whilst you slept. The young blue eyed CEO despised everything about this time of year. He hated it with a firey passion and when he heard announcements like 'only five shopping days left till Christmas' he couldn't help but smile and tell himself that it would soon be over. Only to return next year and poke at him. His workers telling him that he should do something festive with the Kaiba Corp building.

And his brother begging for him to take some time off so that they could go and have festive fun. Suggestions such as going down to the mall and visiting Santa's grotto were the norm. To be honest he did feel sorry for Mokuba, Christmas was the young Kaiba's favourite holiday and yet he was never able to celebrate it in the way he wished to because of Seto and his cold ways.

He sighed and ran a hair through his chestnut hair, ruffling it and knocking it out of place. The brown haired teen pushed his chair away from the desk and slowly stood, glancing around the boring and frankly depressing office once, he turned his attention to the windowed wall. Blue eyes staring out into the darkness, watching the glittering lights with unfathomable interest.

He gently placed his hands against his temples and tried to massage away the throbbing pain in his head. These headaches of his always seemed to be worst when Christmas came around. Another reason to dislike the December month. Loud beeping originated from the laptop sat upon the oak desk and Seto swiftly removed his attention from the window back to his workspace. His alarm was telling him that it was midnight yet he could not go home because his work was not finished.

The story of his life…what a tangled web that was…

Raven locks were sprawled out over the white leather of the corner couch that was positioned in the centre of the Kaiba mansions lounge. Tinsel was clasped tightly in a limp hand as the small boy slept. The servants always pitied the boy, so young, so sweet, so alone. His loyalties always lied with his older brother and they felt that was the reason no one tried to get close to the boy.

This is the reason they liked the Yugi tachi so much; they were Mokuba's friends regardless of what his brother was like. They didn't care what Kaiba said or thought about them, just liked to hang round with the smaller Kaiba. The group were actually admired by the servants, they stood up to Kaiba in a way no one else, not even Mokuba, ever would.

"Poor child" a blonde haired maid whispered as she draped the blanket in her arm over the small frame of the Kaiba Corp heir. She was young, late twenties at the most and had been working for the Kaiba's for a little over a year. She loathed the older but rather than quit she stayed, the smaller Kaiba was considered as a friend to her and she always enjoyed their time together.

"It is a shame isn't it? Someone so young and full of life to be hidden away in here" the old English butler smiled at the maid as she tucked the blanket around the child and removed the tinsel from his hand. "We finished the decorating" he explained and offered her his hand. She took it and smiled half in shock and half in gratitude.

"All of it?" Norman nodded and released his grip on her arm; she smiled again and stood at his side as they stared down at the small child. "I'd like to say he deserves better…but Kaiba does love him, he takes care of him, keeps him clothed and fed. Sometimes I think he does it at the sake of his own happiness." A curt nod was the only reply from the butler and the maid sighed.

"There was a phone call earlier…from Anzu, she and the other will be dropping by tomorrow to give Mokuba his Christmas present"

"That's nice of them" silence, neither of them had ever liked Anzu but they dared not push her away for fear of losing the others. The servants could only give so much to their young master. Friendship was something they could and did give but they understood that Mokuba needed to be with people of his own age group. Yugi tachi were the closest thing they had. "What's the time?"

"Nearly three in the morning Rini, you should go get some sleep"

"I was thinking about what to get Mokuba for Christmas last night. Then thought that Seto could get him anything, but he doesn't want meaningless presents. He wants to spend Christmas with his brother, is that so much to ask for?" Norman jumped when the blond maid spun on her heel and stared at the doorway where Kaiba was stood leaning against the frame in the usual arrogant way.

Norman had not heard the elder Kaiba enter but Rini had and he smiled knowing that she had made sure Kaiba had heard every word of their conversation. The maid was aware that she could loose her job for speaking to her boss in such a way but Mokuba deserved at least one fun Christmas. Every child deserves that.

Kaiba sighed and stepped forward into the room. He stared at his brother and then at the slightly over decorated room then let his gaze fall on the two adults stood in the middle of it all. Believe it or not he actually liked these servants; they were nice to Mokuba because they wanted to be. Not like the others who thought that if they weren't nice to the young boy they would be fired.

"No" he muttered the answer to the maids' question and walked over to the couch. "Thank you" the servants nodded in acceptance. They were probably two of the few people on earth who ever heard the elder Kaiba speak with an emotion other than hate. They smiled and made their leave, working for Kaiba wasn't so bad. He could actually be really nice, if he wanted to be that was.

Kaiba sighed and in a fluid like motion swept his younger brother into his arms. The latter didn't stir just mumbled and squirmed in his sleep as he was carried to his bedroom. Kaiba reached his brothers' bedroom and gently placed his brother down on his bed. He reached for the duvet and carefully placed it over his Mokuba's sleeping frame.

"I'm sorry Moki" he muttered and kissed his brothers' forehead. In truth Kaiba really did wish he could spend Christmas with his baby brother but some things couldn't be done. He was Seto Kaiba, CEO of Kaiba Corp he could have anything he wanted, so why didn't he? Why didn't he just take Christmas off, screw work and have some fun? Maybe because he knew that if he did he'd have to work four years straight to catch up on his work. That didn't make him feel any less guilty though.

Kaiba sighed and leant back in his chair as he stared up at the ceiling in his bedroom/ office. Was it just him or could he never escape his work, it acted like a wraith…it haunted him and it always would. He yawned and stretched his arms, it was four am and even if he went to sleep now he would have to be up in an hour for work.

Blue eyes studied the blank computer screen as they tried to remember what they had been doing. Another yawn. Kaiba gently rubbed his eyes and stood from the desk, he stared down at his bed. And fell face first onto the soft cotton sheets. 'One hours sleep is better than none' he told himself when there was a knock on the door. He growled and stared up at the ceiling, apparently Kami-sama didn't want him to sleep, now or ever.

"Come in" he yawned and rubbed his eyes. Maybe he could get who ever it was to make him some coffee. Kami-sama knows he'd need it. Kaiba stared at the door for a while, waiting for whom ever it was that had interrupted him to enter. Another knock, Kaiba growled and pushed himself up from the bed. He'd make who ever it was pay for making him get up. Who did they think they were?

He wrapped his hand around the door handle and turned it slowly until the door clicked open. He blinked several times when the bright light from the hallway hit into his emotionless blue eyes. He could almost feel the pupils dilate and it made him feel dizzy beyond belief.

"Kaiba" a deep seductive voice greeted as the man stepped out of the light and into the shadows closing the door behind him as he crossed the threshold. By the time Kaiba's eyes had adjusted to the rapidly changing light he was surrounded by darkness. All he could make out was the slim figure of a man he felt that he knew but couldn't place.

"Hm, are you ignoring me on purpose?" The other asked as he slid his arms around Kaiba's waist. The blue eyes blinked in shock, this was the last thing he'd expected to happen when he'd opened his door at four o'clock in the morning. "Oh do tell…" a light kiss on the side of Seto's neck "what have I done to deserve the cold shoulder from you?" A teasing bite as soft hands snaked their way underneath the black shirt, tracing and stroking the toned muscles that they found.

"What do you think you're doing?" Kaiba finally discovered his voice and tried to speak in his usual deadpanned tone but failed when a small moan escaped his lips. His mind was going mad, he wasn't sure what was going on, who the other person was, how they had gotten in and he still felt guilty about ignoring his little brother.

"So you can talk" a small menacing chuckle as lips pushed against lips. Blue eyes opened wide in shock then slowly drifted closed when he felt the tongue slide into his mouth. The thing that was scaring Seto the most was that…he was enjoying this, it felt right. Like it was meant to be and when the other broke away he may have even whimpered due to the lack of contact.

Another chuckle, a haunting kind of noise. Scary yet erotic and sexy as hell. Seto felt the other walk away from him. The creaking of the bed was the only noise that could be heard and it was a dead give away as to where the other had gone.

"Are you just going to stand there or are you going to give me some assistance with removing my clothes?" Kaiba blinked again before a smirk pulled at his lips; he turned on his heel and made his way over to the bed. He stopped at the foot of the king-sized bed and thought about how unlike him this was. He couldn't even see the person yet he was willing to jump into bed with them without a moment's hesitation. What did that say about him? What kind of person was he? Why did he care?

"Just who are you?" The blue eyes tried to focus, tried to see whom they were talking to. Tried to figure out the answer for themselves but there was nothing but darkness.

"Don't tell me that you can't tell? I know you can't see me but I thought that you would figure it out from my voice." A hand gently grabbed hold of the black shirt and pulled Seto down on top of him and into a deeply passionate kiss. The CEO's hands traced the others body in a slow sensual way. He could hear his heart in his throat, wondered if the other could hear it to.

"Why does this feel so right?" A quiet whisper escaped the CEO's lips as he broke away from the other.

"Because it is" was the simple reply. Seto didn't argue something else that was so unlike him. He was confused to say the least as he tried to get the nagging voices to shut up. All he wanted to do was enjoy this moment, wasn't it? He jumped back and sat bolt upright on the bed massaging his temples with his fingertips.

"What's going on here?"

"Hm and I thought you were a genius" more creaking as the figure moved from where he was lying and scooted over to sit next to Seto. "Don't think koi, there's no need to" Kaiba was taken back when the other man pushed him down and pinned him to the bed with an incredible amount of force.

"Koi?" The CEO questioned the word as if it were in an unknown alien language. The other laughed again and lightly kissed Seto's lips before moving to his jaw where he placed more light kisses. The other giggled into the CEO's skin when he reached his neck and bit down on the pale flesh. The dragon master moaned again and grabbed hold of the others shoulders. Pulling him into him as if thinking that if the other left he would die.

Why was that? Seto had never been dependent on anyone in his entire life yet this person had breezed into his room. He had been here for no longer than five seconds and Seto was already finding himself becoming too interested in the other. Hell he didn't even know who the other was but said person was calling him 'koi' maybe it was just him but wasn't that a serious thing between two really close people.

The other placed a butterfly kiss on the CEO's lips before backing away and standing at the foot of the bed. Seto tilted his head in confusion and propped himself up with his elbows. He couldn't work out why the other had stopped, but it was as much a relief as a disappointment. Kami-sama what was happening to him?

"What are you doing?" Seto asked as quietly as he could without resorting to whispering. The other laughed and stared at Seto through the darkness, their eyes meeting for a brief second before the other gave his answer.

"You can't stay here forever Seto, you have to go back sometime?" Kaiba pushed himself away from the bed and took hold of the others hand staring at him with an un-measurable amount of confusion in his ice blue eyes.

"What does that mean?" To Seto it seemed that the other was speaking in riddles, riddles he couldn't work out no matter how hard he tried because they made no sense and never would.

"Hm…" the other tenderly stroked the side of Kaiba's face and stared into his eyes. He smiled and when Seto went to speak he placed a thin finger against his lips in a sweet motion that meant be quite. Seto did as he was told yet another thing that was unlike him. When everything fell silent there was a loud unmistakable beeping that Seto couldn't place. It was as if his memory had been wiped and all he could think about was the other man in the room with him.

"What is that?" He asked the other laughed again and placed a light kiss on his lips before backing away all the way over to the door where he stopped and stared at Seto one last time.

"None of this is real Seto, it's all a dream…a figment of your imagination, now you have to wake up" Seto rubbed his eyes and shook his head in disbelief.

"If this is all a dream…why can't I see who you are?"

"Because you don't want to, I'll be seeing you again soon though. Until then…koi…"

With that said Seto's eyes fluttered open and he sat bolt upright in his bed, in his room. Sunlight was streaming in through the windows and the alarm clock was beeping furiously. Kaiba yawned and reached for the clock, he glanced at the time and threw the clock at the wall.

"Shit! I'm late"
