NOTES: This is my first Yu-Gi-Oh! Fic, so please be nice to me.
Really Sweet Inside; Chapter 1.
"Stop it! These guys are my friends!" Yugi shouted up to a giant man in front of him. The man snickered, peeking over Yugi's shoulder at the two on the ground in pain. Tristan and Joey. His friends? Joey wondered why Yugi was doing this. The giant man was about to hit Yugi when...
Joey Wheeler's eyes snapped open to the darkness. He had dreamed it again. The day Yugi stood up for him and Tristan. Even after they've been jerks to him all this time. Joey didn't know why he kept dreaming it all week. What does it mean? Joey decided to shake it off and looked at the clock. 4 AM. "Ugh, since you won't let me sleep, I'll have a cola." Joey said getting out of bed. His over-sized jimmies (I love those!) drooped over his body. It was really humid in the room. "Maybe I should think about putting the fan on..." He yawned. He stumbled through the dark to the fridge. He crept by Yugi's bed in the hotel, careful not to wake him up. When he opened the fridge and saw there was no cola, he heard, "Can't sleep again, huh Wheeler?"
"Kaiba." Joey said turning around. Seto Kaiba smirked at him, while handing him a cola. Joey looked at Kaiba strangely, but all the same, reached for the cola. Seto laughed and drank the cola instead of giving it to him. "EVIL!" Joey said. "And what are YOU doing up drinking cola?" he asked. Seto rolled his eyes. "Just like every night, Wheeler. What makes you think I can sleep when Mokuba is gone again?" he said. "Listen, Kaiba, don't worry, we'll get your brother back like we always do." Joey said staring at the coke can, constantly as it went from the table to Kaiba's mouth. "How can you be so sure? I mean, someday someone has to lose. I don't know why I agreed to sleep every night instead of continuing to look for him." Seto said squeezing the can. "You heard Yug, it might be a trap. It needs time." Joey said. "Everything is a trap with that shrimp!" Seto said. "Hey! I know how you feel but don't go calling Yugi that!" Joey said giving Kaiba a look of disgust.
Seto shook his head and laughed. "You don't know anything of the sort I'm going through Wheeler." Joey clenched his fists. "Of course I do...you..." Thinking about Serenity being gone too hurt everything inside of him. "Fool." Seto said. "Listen, Kaiba, Serenity was taken away too, and believe you me, I know how you feel about this. Serenity's my little sister and I've been there for her more times you've been there for Mokuba!" Joey exclaimed a little too loudly. Seto glared at Joey. Joey glared at Seto. "How dare you. Mokuba has been through way more then Serenity has!" Seto now crushed the cola can. "Oh yeah? Well has Mokuba had to go through that operation, or not seeing you for 6 years?" Joey slammed his foot down. "Oh the little baby is putting his foot down. Peh." Seto laughed. "I don't need this!" Joey said turning away. "Sure, then. Go back to bed. And here's something to think about! What if you never see Serenity again?" Seto called. Joey stopped dead in the hall. "I will." He said not turning around. Then he kept walking. "I will. I will. I will." Joey whispered to himself as he passed Yugi's bed. Yugi popped one eye open. He heard the whole thing. And now he was really worried. Joey didn't go back to bed. He came back in, so Yugi shut his eyes again. Joey crouched down at the window and looked at the star-full sky. "Wow, lots of stars out tonight." Yugi heard him say. "You will." Yugi whispered.
