XD Those of you who guessed about what was going to happen….you were right! :D Congratulations are in order! Now read on good readers, and enjoy what is to come.
Joey yawned and sat up. He stretched one arm above his head and rubbed a bleary eye with the other. Running a hand through his tangled mess of hair he looked around the room as his eyes adjusted. He nearly cried out when he saw that bastard, Seto Kaiba himself, causally sitting on his left reading a book.
"What's with that look Mutt?" Kaiba closed his book and set his gaze on a startled Joey.
"What are you doing in my bed!?" Joey pointed an accusing finger at Kaiba who just scoffed.
"Hardly, you're the one who came to my bed in the middle of the night." He got up and replaced his book on the shelf.
Joey blushed and scowled. He'd never been so embarrassed. Why did he have to pick Kaiba's room of all places? The mansion had to have at least thirty rooms and he just had to pick Kaiba's room!
"Oh, and you better get up soon, I've already called the maid to clean the sheets you soiled." With that he left the room, closing the door behind him.
Joey glared at the door. It didn't matter what time of day it was, Kaiba was always ready to throw an insult his way. He threw the covers back, and swung his leg over the side of the bed to get up and froze. He flushed a deep shade of red when he saw the stain on his boxers and the bed. He really had 'soiled' the sheets. Kaiba would never let him live this down. Joey had had a wet dream while sharing a bed with the multi-millionaire. He silently wished that he remembered the dream as he helped himself to the bathroom that Kaiba had adjacent to his room.
After showering he walked back into the expanse of the bedroom and was thankful when his clothes, freshly washed, were folded neatly at the foot of Kaiba's bed. He put them on and took another look around the room. The blinds were open now, and the extra light helped Joey to distinguish subtle differences between kaiba's room and the room he had been in the day before. It was no wonder Joey got them confused in the middle of the night, they were nearly identical.
He combed his hair with his fingers, having wrung all the water out, and wandered aimlessly down the long hall. The walls were an off white with dark blue borders on the molding and tops of the wall. Lavish paintings decorated the walls and overall Joey found the place to be warm and inviting. Hardly like what he expected. He half expected Kaiba to live in a castle, with a dungeon motif. He laughed to himself.
"Joey! Are you feeling any better?" He looked down when a small hand took his own and smiled when he saw the bright face of the younger Kaiba brother.
"Yeah, I am actually."
He let Mokuba lead him to the dinning room, with a large mahogany table in the center. It could've easily seated twenty-five or more. It had a white tablecloth draped over it and shining silverware decorated its surface. These people had WAY too much money. He seated himself across from Mokuba figuring the head of the table was for Kaiba. Hey, he had some manners at least.
"My big brother should be here soon." Mokuba pulled the lids off all the dishes revealing the best looking food Joey had ever seen.
Mokuba put only a few things on his plate, but Joey didn't hold back as he piled on as much food as he could.
Mokuba giggled and began eating politely. "Why were you in Seto's room anyway?"
Joey kept his face down, not wanting Mokuba to see the blush creeping up onto his face, and shoveled food into his mouth. Before Mokuba could question Joey's odd behavior, Kaiba made his presence known.
He sat at the head of the table, flipping through a particularly boring set of documents. "Good morning Mokuba."
He smiled warmly at his brother. "Good morning big brother! Joey's feeling much better, but I guess you already knew that." He cast his brother a knowing look and Joey thought he saw Kaiba blush, but figured it was only his imagination when it was gone in an instant.
"The Mutt's fine." He took a single crepe and spread his favorite imported rosehip jam over it.
Joey stuck his tongue out at him, spitting out some of his pancakes in the process. Kaiba frowned and Mokuba laughed. Joey grinned, pleased with himself before downing half his orange juice.
"So, I uh, guess I can go home today. Any chance of me getting a ride to school with you?" He wasn't sure of the answer he would get, but he figured why not? It was better than walking in this cold weather.
"That won't be necessary." Kaiba sipped his coffee, black.
"Huh? Why not?"
Mokuba beamed. "School's cancelled! Haven't you looked outside? It snowed like 15 inches!"
"Seriously!?" Joey rushed over to the window with all the excitement of a twelve year old.
He was greeted by a winter wonderland. The small hedges were completely buried and anything taller was bending with the weight of all the snow. Joey had never seen so much snow, it had to be a record or something. He sat back down a grin plastered on his face, but it fell when he thought of having to walk home in all that.
"What's wrong Joey?" Mokuba was concerned with Joey's sudden fluctuation of mood.
"Well…" He laughed a little. "I gotta walk home in this shit."
"Tough luck Pup." Kaiba smirked at Joey's misfortune.
Mokuba looked at his brother and pouted. "But Seto! We can't let him walk home in this. We should let him stay until the snow melts some."
Kaiba, as cold as he was to everyone else, could never say no to his brother. He groaned, knowing this battle was a losing one, on his part anyway. "Fine, but the second it's safe to leave he's out of here."
Joey's grin returned as he thanked the Kaiba brothers. He was so happy, he felt like he had room for seconds. He reached across the table and grabbed the jam Kaiba had used earlier, unaware of the hard stare he was getting from the older Kaiba brother. He gave himself a generous helping on a piece of toast and even went so far as to lick the spoon. He practically moaned at the rich flavor. It was smooth, and not too sweet. His eyes fluttered shut as he slowly pulled the spoon from his mouth running his tongue over it, getting all of what remained.
Kaiba squirmed in his chair as he watched the blond. Feeling his pants become uncomfortably tight, he quickly excused himself from the table with a short gasp. He quickly headed up the stairs disappearing from sight; the two left at the table looked at each other when the door slammed.
"What was that all about?" Joey bit into his toast and Mokuba snickered.
"Oh, nothing." The younger brother practically sang.
After they both finished with breakfast Mokuba headed back to his room, leaving Joey alone and bored. Something that Joey was definitely not okay with. He went up the stairs and headed for Kaiba's room. He made a note of where it was, so another incident like this morning would never occur again, unless he wanted it to of course. He shook his head to rid himself of the plaguing thoughts of the multi-millionaire before barging into his bedroom.
He spotted Kaiba in front of the large closet as he pulled on a coat. "Going out?"
"None of your business."
Joey whined. "Kaiba! I thought it was too dangerous to go out!?"
Kaiba narrowed his eyes at the shouting blond. "My business is very important."
"Can't you work from home?" Joey looked hopeful.
"Why is it so important to you that I stay home?"
Joey was momentarily at a loss for words. "Because…uh, your brother! If you died who would take car of him?" Joey nodded to himself, nice save. He mentally patted himself on the back.
Kaiba rolled his eyes. "Alright Mutt, I'll stay, but on one condition." He crossed his arms.
"Yeah? What?" He figured Kaiba would ask him to stay quiet in his room while he worked from home on his laptop.
"For the remainder of your stay at my mansion you will do anything and everything that I say." Joey balked at Kaiba's words. He wanted what!?
"Oh hell no!"
3 Any guesses on what Kaiba might do to Joey? :D I love all your reviews so much! Keep reviewing! 3 They bring me such joy. D: And these chapters never turn out as long as I want them to be!
