Christmas Angel

"Jou!"

The blonde sat up straight and glanced around the classroom rubbing his eyes as he heard laughter coming from his fellow classmates. By the looks of things it seemed that, he had managed to fall asleep during class again, which was not good at all. Turning his head upward until he was greeted with the wrinkled and ANGRY face of his English teacher. 'Shit...' he dipped his head and tried to drown out the lecture.

"Mr. Jounouchi I would at least expect you to stay awake through my class, after all it's just before lunch. I'm amazed you're not hypnotized by the clock yet! If I catch you napping one more time I'll send you to detention for the rest of the week!" her scratchy voice rang in his ear. The only response he could give being a simple nod. Technically, it was not his fault at all, his sister having berated him all night about getting a job. So far, his search had been completely unsuccessful, his last hope being either Kaiba or Yugi. Yugi had already done enough for him, and there was no way he could ask for a job at the Game Shop. Kaiba on the other hand was just completely pointless, the heartless business shark being that last person he wanted to ask for a job.

When the bell rang, everyone bolted from the room. Jou quickly joining up with Yugi and Tea who were standing at the door. They both looked him over a bit worried.

"Jou, you ok?" Yugi asked casually his violet eyes fixed on his friends eyes.

"It's not like you to sleep before lunch. You're usually counting the minutes..." Tea tilted her head curiously. Tapping her chin as if she was thinking hard on something. "Did you get laid?" she pointed an accusing finger at him a grin sliding over her face.

"NO!" Jou yelled and swatted her hand out of his face. "I was looking for a job!"

Kaiba walked past them stopping and smirking at their little group. "The mutt, get a job? As what a paperboy? I've always heard dog were good at getting the paper," he held his suitcase tucked under his arm. His uniform neatly pressed and perfect as always. A few strands of brown hair falling over his eyes though the deep blue never ceased to show under the dark strands. He stepped back as Jou swung his suitcase at the CEO, a growl erupting from his throat.

"I'm not a dog!"

"You growl like one."

Yugi and Tea took hold of Jou, keeping him from lunging at Kaiba with all their might. Apparently, the comment had struck the blonde hard, which could be found rather strange. As often as the dog jokes were made one would think Jou would have gotten used to them. 'And to think I was going to ask the bastard for a job! Fucking creep!' he abruptly turned away, pushing past Yugi and Tea so that they could head to their usual lunch spot.

Seto smirked and watched the blonde go. Once the golden mop disappeared into the crowd, he sighed and looked down at his watch. With any luck, he would get a call that could get him out of his next period. The idiotic teacher already grating at his nerves and he wasn't even in the classroom yet.

Just then, his phone rang. Another smirk coming to his face as he brought the device to his ear. "Yes?" he answered making his way along the hallway. Stopping in the courtyard where a few people were eating lunch.

"Mr. Kaiba, we have received a message from Winans Industry. The head of the Industry is willing to meet with you." The voice over the phone stuttered.

"Under what conditions?"

"Apparently Mr. Winans is very close to his workers and before handing any part of his business to you he demands to spend time with the man that may end up running his Industry. During the Holidays he wishes to stay at Kaiba mansion and observe your behavior towards your worker, associates, and Family..."

"In case you haven't realized you twit! Mokuba and I are the only Kaiba in the Kaiba mansion. I have no friends and I'm horrible with people!"

"I'm sorry sir but those are the demands. At least you have a month to figure everything out sir..."

"Idiot!" he hung up the phone, none too gently and glared at everyone surrounding him. Whoever the hell was in charge of Winans Industries would not be easy to please. Kaiba hate people and to make a proper impression he at least needed some kind of romantic relationship to make things seem stable in his life. He gritted his teeth and plopped down on a stone bench. One month, he was a Kaiba; one month was plenty of time.

The sun was high in the sky, the final bell of school ringing gloriously throughout the grounds. Thousands of kids flooded from the campus Jou walking alone. Apparently, his job search would take up plenty of his time, restricting him from any activities with his friends. Looking at the Kaiba Corp. building, he swallowed the lump that had formed in his throat. 'Here goes nothing...'

Upon entering the building, he shrunk back as groups of business men brushed past him. Knocking him aside as if he was not even there. With a growl and tight fist, he chose to ignore the gesture and continue to the receptionist. "Excuse me..."

The woman continued to gossip on the phone.

"Excuse me!"

"Excuse me Beverly I'll call you back, some trash just won't stop bothering me," she hung up the phone and looked him over. "Can I help you?"

"I'm here to apply for a job."

"You and a dozen others..." she chewed on her gum loudly, her bright red lips smacking together. She glanced at a least of open positions and shrugged. "The only opening I can give you is the mailroom, other then that you're out of luck, kid."

He sighed in relief; at least he hadn't ended up being a janitor. Though being the lackey of the entire building wasn't exactly appealing either. 'But hey better then nothing!' he smiled inwardly and took the application with a bright smile. "Thanks..."

Before he could go, the receptionist called after him, "By the way, a word of advice. Don't come in here dressed like that; Mr. Kaiba likes people to at least, look neat. Either press that uniform of yours or get a neater wardrobe..." she returned to her work and picked up the phone. More then likely going to call back the friend she had been talking to before Jou had disrupted her.

Jou sighed and looked at his clothes, all right so he did not bother to button them up or iron them but, did he really look like trash? He looked at the mirror windows outside of Kaiba Corp. and looked over himself. Touching his shaggy blonde hair and stroking the golden locks almost affectionately. 'Right I better get home...' he looked at his watch and jogged the rest of his way home. "Shizuka!" he entered the apartment with a warm smile on his face, his sister came in from the kitchen whipping her hands on a towel. "I think I've finally got a job!"

"Now just be sure to keep it..." she laughed and tossed the towel at him. "Wash up... dinner is ready."

He nodded his head and proceeded to the bathroom. Washing his hands and returning to the kitchen to enjoy some of the stew Shizuka had made. Setting the application down on the table, he folded his arms and took up a pen. Answering everything that was required after glancing up every now and then to see his sister working on a puzzle on the coffee table. When he was through, he smiled and rested back into his chair, running his fingers through his hair. "Shizuka can you iron my uniform for me when you're through, I actually have to be neat tomorrow..."

"Actually have to be neat?" she giggled and placed three pieces of the puzzle together. "God forbid that Jounouchi Katsuya actually has to dress neat." Smiling over her shoulder, as she pushed herself up and walked over to him. "Are you trying to impress Kaiba?"

"Well of course I wanna impress Kaiba he's going to be my boss."

"I don't mean like that Jou," she giggled again and ruffled his hair. "You've had a crush on him for a while now... This must be a dream come true for you."

"Yah right to have the Cast Iron Creep run my work life is something I've wanted since the day I was born."

Getting up he grinned at his sister, his blush out in the open. Making his way into the bathroom, he stripped himself of his clothes and turned on the shower. 'Kaiba... that cold hearted prick.' He clenched his hands as he waited for the water to heat up before stepping under the falling droplets. With a sigh, he felt the golden locks fall over his face in the most ungraceful fashion. His hands shakily massaging his scalp as he began to clean himself. 'Who am I kidding I'm obsessed with the guy, His eyes, his jackass attitude, and his smile. The smile he reserves only for his little brother and no one else. I wonder what it would be like to be with him, even if it was just pretend...' he smiled and rubbed his chest and throat.

The next morning

Running his fingers through his hair he made his way back into the Kaiba Corp. Building smiling at the receptionist from the previous day. The woman looked up from her work and nodded her head in approval. "So it seems the trash can be cleaned up..." she smiled and took the paper looking it over and nodding her head repeatedly. "Everything seems in order. You can go up and see Kaiba for your interview. Mr. ... Jounouchi. "

The blonde swallowed a lump in his throat and nodded his head. Bowing to her graciously before shuffling to the elevator. The receptionist looked at him and actually felt sorry for the kid. According to his application, Jounouchi had taken charge of his sister. "Poor kid..." with a sigh she watched him wait for the elevator. "Hey Jou, relax... You'll do fine."

Jou smiled nervously at her and nodded his head grinning stupidly. Once the elevator doors opened, he stepped inside and looked up at the floor dial. The ride up felt like it was taking forever. However, when it opened to the top floor he felt like it had not taken nearly long enough. Taking a step out, he was greeted by a busy office floor. The large red wood door in front of him holding a plaque that read 'Kaiba' on it. To the left and right there were other office doors of the other executives. Kaiba's door opened and his secretary stepped out, the young women seeming to slowly drift from her twenties to her seventies.

"Good luck... he's in a particularly bad mood today." The woman said smiling at him despite her shaken exterior.

"Believe me it can't be any worse then how he is in first period."

Slowly he entered the room and closed the door. Everything in the office was symmetrical and had a purpose, with the acceptation of Kaiba's picture of his younger brother. The young CEO leaned on his disk, his gaze fixed on Jou's job application. A smirk crossed the brunette's face as he looked up and peered at Jou. Easing back into his chair Seto folded his arms across his chest. "Not bad, that spot has been vacant for quite a time now. Don't think that just because we go to school together I'll go easier on you."

"From you that would be too much to ask," Jou looked back at the deep blue eyes and flinched. There was no way he could survive this interview without cracking. "So do I get the job?"

"Yes... You will work from after school to as long as you are required in the mailroom, on weekends you work from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm," Seto sat up and leaned on his table watching to blonde in amusement. This wasn't the first time someone was unable to meet his gaze, and he found it rather enjoyable. Especially when it was the mutt, he was staring down. Jou's body language showing his complete discomfort in the most interesting ways. The CEO studied the blonde's face and waved his hand dismissing the blond. "You should probably get started today... Good luck."

Jounouchi nodded his head and turned quickly sliding through the door. A smile spread over his features the secretary smiling at him as he came out. "So I take it you got the job?"

"Yes ma'am," he nodded his head in excitement.

"I'm Youko, welcome to Kaiba Corp, and GOOD luck!" holding out a stack of papers she politely nodded her head. "Since you're heading down to the mailroom take those down with you. You're senior manager will be waiting for you. His name is Tenka... By the way you might want to watch out for him he's pretty touchy."

"Can't be any worse then Kaiba's attitude... Oh and I'm Jounouchi by the way, Jou for short..." he took the stack, surprised at the weight but eventually getting a handle on it. Nodding his head in thanks, he asked for directions and followed them carefully. Stepping into a paper filled room on the second floor. Stepping inside he had to jump forward to dodge a rushing group of men.

A man sat at the desk in the corner his black hair slick and neat. In many ways, it reminded him a lot of Kaiba, though the man's eyes were ruby red. 'Like a Red eyes Black Dragon...' he shrugged at the thought and walked over hugging the stack to his chest. "Excuse me do you know where I can find Tenka?"

The moment the man lifted his head Jou had to step back. The man's red eyes making him flinch because of the burning intensity. When a smile came to his face, his eyes seemed to glow. "Yes... my name is Tenka. I take it you must be Katsuya."

"Yes," he nodded his head and held out the stack of papers. "Youko wanted me to give these to you." He let out a sigh of relief when the papers were taken from him. When he met Tenka's eyes, he suddenly felt self-conscious. "Kai- I mean MR. Kaiba told me this spot has been vacant for a while. What happened to the last guy?"

Tenka smirked and shrugged his shoulders resting back in his chair. "He just wasn't cut out for the job was all... I'm sure you'll do better." He pushed himself to his feet and looked the blonde over fully. "I'll show you around," he smiled politely and placed a hand over Jou's shoulder while leading him out of the room.

The Kaiba Corp building was next to impossible to navigate through on the first try. Jou following Tenka through each of the rooms, taking careful note of the different rooms and their purposes. When he met some of the employees, he was surprised at how quickly he was accepted. Despite Kaiba's reign over Kaiba Corp., the actual workers were nice people. He had learned the names of the workers extremely quickly. The receptionist's name had been Tara Morris. Despite their first encounter, she became a good friend over time.

After two weeks of working there, Kaiba could tell the Jou's presence had affected the work place. The CEO sat at his desk fiddling with his pen, thinking about the on coming visit of a certain Mr. Winan's. If he wanted to be the Japanese representative of the man's industry, he'd have to make a good impression. The issue being that he wasn't a pleasant person in the least. His workers hated him, he had no friends, and his family consisted of only two people, Mokuba and himself. Tapping his pen against the surface of his desk, he growled in frustration as he threw the helpless pen across the room.

"Kaiba?"

Seto lifted his head and looked at the young blonde standing at the door. Gesturing him in, watching curiously as the blonde knelt down and picked up the violated pen. "You know 'Mr.' Kaiba a pen can't defend itself... throwing it won't do anything." Jou smiled at his verbal triumph and set the pen down along with a folder. "This is the information you asked for, if you need anything just tell Youko to send for me." He smiled politely not sure, why he was not being his usual self around the blue-eyed teen. At school they didn't even fight any more, it was actually somewhat strange. With a polite last bow, he turned to leave.

"Wait..."

"Yes?" the blond spoke softly glancing over his shoulder. He spun around the moment he saw that the CEO was out of his seat.

"You seem to get along well with my employees," Kaiba said sternly looking at the golden eyes with little regard. "I have a question I need to ask you." He remained silent and looked at the blonde for any sign of approval. When he received a courteous nod he smirked, "A man I wish to do business with is very conscious about his employees. To impress him I need your opinion about how I treat my own employees."

"You treat them like shit." The blonde stated honestly. "You over work everyone, you yell at people who are only trying to do their best and you're understaffed."

"For a mongrel you're observant..." the cerulean-eyed CEO could not help but laugh. The puppy staring at him dumbfounded, had he said something funny? Jounouchi took a quick recap of everything and came out with nothing. He jumped at the sudden silence, the brunette looking at him seriously. "What can I do to make it easier for them, even if it's only for a while?"

"Kaiba, having you be nice for a month our two isn't going to suddenly change everyone's opinion on you. Try being a little bit easier on everyone for a start. You don't even know half of your employee's names. For a CEO that's real sad." Jou just left it at that and turned to go. A gasp coming to his lips when he felt his wrist being seized by the other's hand.

"If anyone asks, this never happened... the last thing I need is people knowing I asked help from a dog."

"FOR THE LAST TIME KAIBA I'M NOT A DOG!" the blonde glared wanting more then anything to cave in his boss's face. With a quick tug, he was free from Kaiba's hold and storming out of the room, slamming the door closed. Youko instantly looked over at him and raised a brow. No one in their right mind had every yelled at Kaiba, at least not if they wanted to keep working at Kaiba Corp.

"Jou? What happened in there?"

With a sigh, the blonde rubbed his arm and shrugged his shoulders, "Nothing but the usual." He said actually sounding disappointed. "You might as well go home now that paper work will probably take ol' moneybags a while." He smiled at her and made his way to the elevator. Returning to the mailroom where only Tenka remained. Most of the other workers had left by now, what few remained preparing to leave. "Tenka, you're still here?"

"Well I am the mailroom manager I can't leave until all my underlings are gone. Why are you still here?"

He blushed the moment he was confronted with Tenka's ruby red eyes. Shuffling over to the closet and taking out his jacket, "Just had some paper work to give Kaiba."

"It's almost 11 o'clock you should be at home... You're sister is probably worried." He shut off his computer and got to his feet, stretching his back before pulling on his long brown jacket. "You know it's almost our Thanksgiving break, you doing anything in particular?"

Jou shook his head and pulled on his grey sweater looking up at Tenka curiously. He instantly shrunk back when he found the black haired man leaning over him looking at the blonde's face contently. "How about you come to the Thanksgiving Party a couple of us guys are having in the lounge?"

"Um, I'll have to see about that," he laughed sheepishly and slipped past Tenka and out into the hall letting out a yelp when he slammed directly into Kaiba. The brunette glared down at him and dusted off his shoulder as if he had gotten dirty. Peering over Jou's shoulder, he glared even harder at Tenka who just waved him off carelessly. "Sorry Kaiba, I was in a hurry."

The CEO just brushed past him and left. Jou watched him and ran his fingers through his hair, a soft sigh escaping from his lips. If there was one time, he didn't want to seem like a fool it was when he was around Kaiba. So far, it seemed like his luck and grace left him at the mere presence of the cerulean-eyed man. "Later puppy," he dipped his head when he felt Tenka ruffle his hair and leave. 'I don't know which one is worse, Tenka hitting on me or Kaiba ignoring me...' he huffed and locked up the mailroom stroking his scalp as he followed suit and left.
