I believe I messed up a bit last chapter. I already told you Joey's, Seto's and Mokuba's ages but not Atem's or Yugi's. Atem (26) and Yugi (17) he'll be 18 in eight months. I mentioned that already, never mind. I never told any of you what time of the school year or day of the week it is either: early October and Thursday. I'm not very good with love so if you want to correct me, go ahead. If I confused you at any part, just review or PM me. That was my longest chapter out of all my stories. I have a feeling this one is a bit similar to Once Upon A Broken Heart and one or two of my other fanfics... Also, Seto's really OOC ain't he?

"Do you think you can still disrespect me?" Seto smirked as he ran his thin fingers through his love's hair.

"I start tomorrow and even though my leg isn't in great condition, I'm still going and I'm going to try to piss you off." Joey spoke thoughtfully before he felt a hand on his injured leg.
"Does it hurt when I touch it?" Seto asked softly. He got a shake of blond hair. "Can you move it?" "Just barely. It hurts when I try to stand." "I think you only dislocated it. I'm no doctor but I know what to do from experience." Joey's leg was still slightly bent as the brunette took hold of his ankle.
"What are you doing?" Joey stared at him worriedly, his heart beginning to pound.
"Just hold still and it won't hurt as much." Before Joey could ask what he meant, a light popping sound was heard and the blonde felt his knee begin to burn painfully. "Now we have to get you back to Atem's and ice it for awhile. I'll wrap it after the swelling goes down."

"It's about time you two returned." Mokuba smiled as they came in, Joey on Seto's back.
"Yeah, well, Seto's gonna finish taking care of my leg." Joey missing the brunette's blush as he was placed on the couch.
"Did you two sort it out?" Atem walked into the room, arms by his side with Yugi following.

Joey blushed a deep red while Seto just gave a slight nod. He was still feeling happy and surprised when the blonde called him by his name. "That's great!" Yugi exclaimed, squeezing his friend. "Let's get some pizza to celebrate!"
"Yugi!" Atem said in a strict voice. Said teenager turned to face his older lover with a nervous laugh. "I was kidding Atem."
No one believed him for a second. The room was deathly quiet until Joey spoke up. "Uh, so, I was wondering... how do you guys do it?"
"Excuse me?" Atem didn't move, a dark blush covering his face. Yugi giggled as he thought of the misunderstood words. 'Oh Joey, this is going to be a great school year for me. Plus, I can't wait until you all leave...' Clearing his throat, Yugi smiled. "You'll get used to it eventually. You'll see Mr. Kaiba every day so it won't be so bad but the thing is," he frowned slightly, his violet eyes moving towards Atem. "You're going to want to avoid looking for him. He's got way more crushes than Atem. Atem and I are still careful though. I avoid his gaze as much as possible in school."

"That it?" Joey already knew about Seto's crushes; what he wanted to know was how he was going to get through class. "But how am I going to get through class without staring?"
"What's one way to piss you off?" Mokuba asked.
"Calling me names..."

"Seeing Tristan tomorrow might set you off too, right?" Yugi asked his only friend curiously. "That bastard. I swear I'm gonna kill him." Joey grit angrily.
Seto, curiosity getting the better of him, asked "Is it because he didn't believe you?"
"No. You'll hear about it tomorrow. For now, let's get some food and get my knee fixed so I can get ready for my first day." The blonde smiled up at his brunette boyfriend before realization hit him. "All my school stuff is back at my place!" He finally had a boyfriend and he had to leave soon.
"First your leg, then your school stuff."

Getting the blonde's materials had been easier than they'd thought. All of Joey's belongings had been thrown out in the hall; his book bag containing his books and notebooks; his five year old Android that didn't have very good service, and his blue school uniform for tomorrow. 'I knew he was going to throw me out sooner or later.' "I guess I don't have to sneak in."
"Yeah but we're going to have to change your address for when they send out report cards." Seto heard is boyfriend sigh as they picked up his things. "We should hurry before somebody sees me. No one likes that I have more money than everybody here combined."

Climbing back into the car, Joey realized he didn't know where he was going to live now. "Am I living with you or the vice principal?"
"I need to figure out where you'll sleep but you're definitely not staying with my cousin. I know the perfect person you can stay with for the time being."
"And who's that?"
"Her name is Mai. She's like part of the family and doesn't live far from the school. Yugi hangs out with her sometimes when he's not with Atem or helping his grandfather out at the game shop. Mai used to work as a secretary at Domino High until she got fired because the principal thought she was flirting with the male students. But Mai was only doing her job even though she spoke a lot. She liked to help the kids with their relationship problems and gave them advice."
"So that's why she was fired? Because Principal Tea thought Mai was flirting with kids?"
"Yeah. She's a real pain but once Mokuba graduates in three years, I'm quitting."
'I can really help him out by continuing to fight but I know he won't want that. I guess I'll have to do it secretly.' "Is there anything I can do to help? I mean, I will be living with you two eventually and I know you hate when kids confess."
"I could talk to Atem or Mai and see if they have something you can do." Seto stopped once more in front of another house. This one was bigger than Atem's. It was a two story, light purple house with white shutters and a small apple tree in the right corner of the yard.

Pulling out the blonde's belongings, the two hoisted it to the front door. "This is a cute house, Seto. I wonder what she's like." Joey rung the doorbell.
The door swung open to reveal a blonde woman, her lips a light shade of red and her outfit completely purple. "Seto! How are you? I haven't seen you in a year! How's your brother doing? Is he passing his classes? Did you finally meet someone who can stand your cold personality?"
Sighing, the brunette closed his eyes. "I could be better if I still weren't getting confessions; Mokuba's doing fine and is passing; and yes I found someone. Now can you do me a favor? Joey doesn't have any place to stay for awhile. He's my student starting tomorrow but he really needs somewhere to live until I sort things out at my place."
Looking over at the blonde boy, Mai squealed in delight. "Of course! I've always wanted a roommate!" She pulled him into a tight hug. "Now we can stay up late on the weekends and watch horror and romance movies! It'll be so much fun!" She snatched everything out of Seto's arms and shut the door in his face.
Everywhere he looked, he saw purple. Purple walls, purple couches and tables, purple blankets and lamps. The only thing not purple was the TV and sinks and stairs. Joey started getting a headache just from the color. "I don't mean to sound rude, but I've had a long day and sort of want to go to bed now."
Mai smiled gently and nodded, leading him up to a guest room. "I'm not going to ask you any questions, Joey. I don't mind having you here. But I won't wake you up for school. Set your alarm for 6:30 if you want breakfast and a shower."
Joey deadpanned but nodded and saw more purple when he walked into his room. Setting down his things, he noticed the dresser was a dark brown. 'Good to see something in here that's not purple. God, she's obsessed with the color. But I need to sleep. Let's hope I dream of Seto... that'd be wonderful.'

Joey's alarm went off, startling him awake from the dream sex he'd been having. Slamming off the annoying clock, he yawned and sat up. 'Dream sex with Seto and the moment he's about to make me cum, my damn alarm goes off.' He trudged downstairs to find the kitchen, the smell of bacon filling his nose.

Mai stood at the stove, cooking eggs and bacon along with toast in the toaster. "Morning." Joey yawned again as she said 'morning' back. "Thank you for cooking breakfast. It smells great." He tried to start up a conversation but the woman didn't say a word to him. She finally finished cooking and placed the food on the plate, throwing it harshly in front of the boy before walking out. He shoved the food down his throat, wanting to get out of the house. He placed his dishes in the sink and ran back upstairs for a quick shower. Jumping out, he dried off and ran back to his borrowed room, ignoring the color around him as he dressed. Looking at the time, Joey realized it was 7:21. He had 39 minutes to get to school and try keeping his friend safe. He definitely wasn't going to be late for school either. It was his first day! He ran quickly, noticing a small figure up ahead. 'Glad to know I won't be the only one nearly late.' Joey realized immediately the tri-colored hair. "Yugi?" Said boy turned around, looking tired.
"Oh, hey Joey." He yawned and smiled only to be picked up and carried the rest of the way to school. Joey felt pain in his leg and remembered the day before. "We only have a half hour til school starts. I would ask you why you look so tired but we don't have time for that. You'll have to tell me later." But he didn't get a response as they reached the building.

"By the way," Yugi smiled. "When you reach gym, just leave your shirt on. She can't force you to take it off. I'll see you later. We might have a couple classes together." He left Joey outside the entrance and ran to his first class.

Entering the building, Joey headed to the office just in case they needed to give him anything. He had hoped he wouldn't see Tea but he guessed it was pointless trying to avoid her. He only had fifteen minutes but she just kept smiling at him, holding a manila folder until a knock on the door caused her to stop. "Come in."

Joey could only suppress a glare as Ushio entered the room, acting like a perfect student. "You wanted to see me?" He smiled, the disgusting grin covering his face.

"I would like you to show Mr. Wheeler around." The principal smiled nicely.
But Joey had other thoughts. "That's nice and all but someone I met recently said he'd show me around during lunch." He just prayed they wouldn't catch on to his lie.

Fortunately, he was relieved when Ushio was dismissed. 'I have a feeling I'll be meeting him later...' "I should probably head to class now. I don't want to be late on my first day." He stood just when the door opened again.

"So this is the new student?" Joey turned his head to see Seto standing there, a smirk on his face. "You don't look like much but I'll deal as long as you behave."
Eye twitching, the blonde frowned. "And you are...?" He knew Seto didn't mean it but it still annoyed him.
"I'm Mr. Kaiba, the Chemistry teacher. I expect you'll do all your assignments?" Joey just nodded before saying he was going to be late to his first class if he didn't leave now.

He slumped down at the lunch table with Yugi. "I'm tired." He groaned tiredly as he picked at his food.
Yugi giggled. "How have classes been? I haven't had you in any yet."
"The only good thing about dislocating my knee was that I got to sit out during gym class. They ended up playing dodgeball which I'm pretty good at but it was like they were in a war. Economics, Algebra 2, and English were a total bore. I nearly fell asleep!" "We finally see each other again."
"Ushio... I knew I'd see you later." Joey ground out. "Are you here to pick on Yugi?"
Ushio laughed. "That loser? Not right now. I have a bone to pick with you... Joey. I almost got detention because of you!"

He could see Atem and Seto out of the corner of his left eye. Atem had stopped the brunette from doing anything. "I don't want to fight you. You're not worth it."
The bully was angered at the blonde's statement. "If I'm not worth it, then maybe I'll take it out on the shrimp!" He raised his fist and aimed it towards Yugi. Yugi froze as the fist neared him only to be stopped inches from his face.
"I swear to God, if you lay one finger on him, I'll kill you." Joey shoved Ushio away harshly.
"Ushio!" Atem's deep voice caused everyone to turn his way. The vice principal stood there, a few feet away. "If you want to be suspended then by all means, punch him."
"Tch. It's not like the principal will do anything. But I refuse to be suspended by you." Ushio walked away, sitting down at a nearby table where Tristan sat as well.

"I heard from Yugi what you said yesterday to Tristan." Atem watched as Joey glared at the two boys.
"Yeah, well, I wasn't going to let him hurt my best friend. I won't let anyone hurt him." The blonde sounded angry but stayed calm. He was so pissed right now and knew it wasn't good. 'I need to go back after school. I need to get rid of my anger fast.' "I won't be able to hang out with you today. I have to go somewhere afterwards. Sorry." Deep breathing had helped calm him for awhile but it didn't last. He had soon found out fighting was the only way he could channel it. It wasn't the best way but it seemed like the only way. Joey noticed how his friend looked concerned. "I'll be okay." But it didn't seem to relax Yugi at all. "How about I come over after I'm done? Will that make you feel better?" The tri-colored teen nodded silently before taking out a piece of paper and pen just as the bell rang to signal lunch was over.

Seto stood there, leaning against the wall with his arms folded across his chest. 'It's obvious he's angry so what's he going to do?' He closed his eyes, not moving a muscle until he heard that same female voice from yesterday.
"Are you alright, Mr. Kaiba?" He sighed lightly before responding. "I'm fine but I'll be late to class so the VP will take my place for awhile."
The brunette continued to stand there, waiting as his blonde neared him with Atem walking in front of him. Rebecca left him alone. "Mr. Sennen! Mr. Wheeler!"

"What is it now?" Atem stared at him.
"Mr. Sennen, I need you to teach for a bit. Mr. Wheeler, I need to talk to you."
"I hate you." Atem grumbled. "Why can't you give me the last class?"
"And what did I do?" Joey crossed his arms. "You better give me an excuse to French class." All Yugi did was grin before saying he should head to class.

The VP trudged to Seto's Chemistry class, knowing everything was already prepared. Seto, however, dragged the blonde to the computer room. Shutting and locking the door behind him, he quietly asked "What do you have to do after school?"

Joey looked away upsettingly. "If I'm going to live with you soon and repay Mai for letting me stay, I decided the best and only way was to keep fighting... I'm also so pissed off and fighting lets me get my anger out."

Seto didn't like this... at all. "I told you I - ." "I know but Tristan's words keep running through my mind. Calling Yugi a loser and saying that he needs to man up... I know Atem saves him but Yugi's the school bully magnet. The VP can't always protect him."

"I know he can't. They both know but Yugi's fine with it. I've gotten him out of a few situations before. But isn't there another way for you to channel all that anger?"

"I've tried everything I could think of but nothing except fighting worked. I know you don't like it, but I have to do something about it." Joey stared into the brunette's blue eyes as he neared him.
"Close your eyes and don't move."
Joey stared a bit longer before obeying. He didn't have to wait very long before a gentle kiss was placed upon his lips. He nearly pulled away but soon felt a wall against his back. 'Why is he being so gentle?' Seto pulled away, their lips less than an inch away.
"Take your anger and hatred out on me. Don't be gentle." His eyes softened as amber stared back.
Joey didn't have to be told twice. He was rough, trying to pull the brunette close to his body. "I love you." He separated a second before kissing him again. He moaned loudly as Seto ran a hand down his right thigh. He wanted to keep going but had to pull away unfortunately when the sound of a nervous cough got their attention.

"I don't mean to interrupt but Ms. Ishtar sort of needs the room." A teenager a bit taller than Yugi stood in the doorway. "She gave me the key to the room because she had to speak to the principal. It's just me at the moment but I'm pretty sure some other students will be arriving shortly."

Joey removed himself quickly as Seto faced the white-haired boy. "I didn't think you were interested in computers, Ryou."
"Oh, I'm not. It's just that I really owe Ms. Ishtar for helping me out so much. I had decided to help whenever she needs it." Ryou looked down embarrassingly.
"I know she's extremely kind, but what's she helped you with?"
Ryou looked back up. "Tristan."
At the mentioning of his old friend, Joey spoke up. "He bullies you too?"
"Unfortunately, but it's alright." Ryou smiled. "He gets confused when he sees my twin brother. It's funny but also scary. My brother is completely different. He fights back unlike me."
"What grade are you in?" "Eleventh." "Great! What's your class schedule?" Joey was ecstatic to earn another new friend. "Let's see... Algebra 2, Economics, gym, lunch, Art, French 2, and Chemistry."
Joey was confused... why did he have seven classes compared to Ryou who had six? "I've got seven classes for some weird reason. The superintendent told me I needed seven classes. Does everyone else have six like you?"
"Yeah. Students only need six classes. I heard once that if someone wanted to return to high school for their GED, then they needed seven. It doesn't make much sense though."

Sighing, Seto walked over to the desk. "I guess you should get going, Joey. Here's your pass. I bet Atem is having a field day with the class right now." He handed Joey the pass to class and shoved his hands in his pockets before heading out. "I'll see you two in class." He sighed again.
A few minutes later, Joey found himself walking his new friend to class. "You won't tell anyone, will you? About what you saw?"
They stopped in the hall. "Of course not. I don't like getting people in trouble. Thanks for walking me to class by the way." Ryou grinned and ran the few yards to Art.

It grew quiet as Joey stood there, grinning like an idiot. 'Two friends and a boyfriend in less than twenty-four hours!' He giggled slightly, not noticing someone was approaching him.

"All alone?" Joey shut up and spun around just to get punched in the face but he recovered quickly.
"Your punches are pathetic... Tristan." The blonde smirked, wiping his bottom lip with the back of his hand. "By the way, I won't let you touch Ryou either."

Does Joey seem a bit submissive? And Seto seems a bit to nice as well.
