Seto POV

"If I gave him back the money I know for a fact I'd be out of a job because there's absolutely no way he'd keep me employed knowing not even money could sway me. Which wasn't true! It doesn't this is for my brother. I wouldn't do this for any other reason." I thought to myself as the train came to our stop.

Walking only a few blocks from the station they came to the school. The campus was bustling with parents making the tuition payments. As well as many new students that had been on the waitlist, just hoping for someone to drop out for whatever reason.

"I'll see you after school Seto!" Mokuba shouted as he began to run off.

"Just come straight home I'm not working tonight." Seto called back.

"Awesome see ya!"

Seto made his way into the admissions building and was surprised that the line wasn't very long and was moving along quickly.

"Surname?" asked a silver haired gentleman. I told him quickly causing the man to look up briefly, "You don't hear that name very often. Tuition for Mokuba?"

"Yes." I nodded. I hated small talk during these situations.

"He's a student in my class. You're not his father are you?"

"No, I'm his brother." I told him handing him the check for the payment.

"I see. If you were you either were very young when he was born or you just don't age." The man held out a receipt and smiled, "It was a pleasure meeting you."

"That made things more awkward than necessary." I thought as I rushed back to the station. If I didn't run into any tourist, while their attempting to figure out how to slide their ticket I'd be able to catch the first train back home.

I rushed down the stairs and made it through the line without problem. I even got a seat on the train. It would be what I'd consider of prefect day if I didn't have to meet my boss when I got home.

As I walked back to my apartment I kept an eye out of my boss's car. It was hard to miss it would be the only luxury car on the block, unless a pimp was looking for one of his girls. As I crossed the street I saw his car parked outside my building. He obviously saw me too since he got out.

"Good Morning." He said to me. I was beginning to feel sick, "How has your morning been."

"Fine." I told him as he followed me up the stairs.

I didn't make my quick trip up the stairs as I usually did. I could hear my heart pounding I couldn't go through with this! I couldn't! I can't!

I stopped at the door and looked at him, "Sir, I can't-"

"Are you backing out?"

"I'm no better than the people I walk pass on the streets if I go through with this. I could never-"

"You're already no better than the people selling it on the streets. You fell to their level when you accepted the offer."

"I just give you your money back."

"I don't want the money back I want you to follow through with your end of the deal." He stepped forward pinning me against the door, "You already used the check to pay for your brother's tuition. If you back out on our deal what's stopping me from telling the police that you stole the check and forged my signature? You couldn't even tell them the truth without incriminating yourself."

"You wouldn't."

"Are you willing to take that chance?" He asked me, "Now let's go inside."

He took my key from out of my hand and unlocked the door. I stepped inside once he nudged me forward. He had his hands on my shoulders as he led me farther into the apartment.

"You have a western style bed. How interesting." He commented as he walked over to it loosening his tie until he could take it off. He sat on the bed and eyed me from across the room, "Well? You don't have much of a choice. It's either this or jail."

"You'd really have me thrown in jail?" I wanted to call his bluff but I couldn't afford to risk it.

"I'd prefer if I didn't. I'd be losing one of my star servers. It's so hard finding people that are familiar with the western style of fine dining."

"I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard."

He stood up quickly and approached me so fast that I didn't have time to react, "We had a deal. You've already received your half. Now it's time for you to pay up." He grabbed me and pushed me onto my bed.

He crushed his mouth against mine. Kissing, biting and running his tongue against my lips. His hands were like ice against my skin and sent shivers over every inch of me. He rolled me over so I was on my stomach as he pulled my pants down. I heard him pop a cap on something then the sound of him slathering, what I could only assume was lubricant, onto this penis.

This wasn't going to be like another time I've done this. The failed attempt to put me at ease and the fact that he wasn't going to prep me at all. I'd done this before I wasn't scared more ashamed. I voided anyone that took the path of selling their bodies and now I was no better.

"It's a good thing I gave you the night off." He said as he pushed inside me. He leaned over me and kissed my neck as though that was supposed to numb the pain he caused. I kept my eyes closed the entire time trying to imagine myself anywhere else but here.

I was glad when he finished he'd lasted much longer than I'd expected. He cleaned himself up and left after that. I couldn't move or I was too afraid to move. My whole body hurt from the position I was forced into. My shoulders were bruised from his weight holding me down. The clock told me the whole ordeal lasted about an hour and ten minutes but I felt as though I'd just traveled to the many levels of hell.

I was awoken by the front door being opened, "Seto! You home?" I heard Mokuba call out.

I rushed out of bed to put on some clothes and rip the sheets off the bed. I was stuffing the filthy sheets into the laundry basket when Mokuba entered the room.

"How was school?" I gasped as the pain set in quickly.

"Fine, are you ok? You're standing like Quasimodo. Did you hurt your back again?"

"No I'm fine." I lied straightening up slowly.

Mokuba looked over at the bare mattress, "You were trying to flip the mattress by yourself again! Seto you're going to end up in the hospital if you do heavy things like that."

I let out a nervous laugh. I was glad that Mokuba didn't suspect anything. I knew he'd want to drop out of the private school if he knew what I did.

"You won't believe how many assignments the teachers handed out today. This semester's projects are ridiculous."

"How so?"

"100 page paper on pineapple farming." Mokuba glanced over at me, "I hope you can help me out with that one."

"Are you sure that's the right topic?"

"Yep." Mokuba sat down at the small desk in the corner of the room, "I'm going to knock out some of the math assignments now. Do you think you can check the answers for me, afterwards?"

"Of course." I told him as I forced myself not to hunch over and to stand up straight, "I'll start dinner. Just let me know it you need help."

I didn't even have enough time to add water to the rice cooker when the most annoying banging came from the front door. I rushed over just to make it stop.

"Hey! It's nice seeing ya home!"

"What do you want Jonouchi?"

"Wanna hang out? Ever since you quit school I hardly see you."

"I'm fixing dinner-" I began to tell him until he pushed pass me to get inside the apartment.

"Thanks for the invite."

"Hey Katsuya!" Mokuba yelled from the other room, "Are you staying for dinner?"

"Of course! I never get to see ya'll anymore."

I groaned I wasn't in the mood for Jonouchi's antics. Not after the day I had. I focused on preparing dinner but that proved difficult since Jonouchi wasn't giving me much personal space.

"I really wanna talk Seto."

"About what?"

"You dropped out of school, Seto. You were on a full scholarship."

I was thankful that Jonouchi kept his voice low. I couldn't image what Mokuba had to say if he knew the true reason I dropped out.

"Jonouchi, my brother and I are on our own. I couldn't stay in school and take care of him at the same time."

"You can come stay with my family. We have the extra room and all."

"No."

"Come on Seto. It's not some sort of hand out. Think of it like a sleep over. Like old times" Jonouchi wrapped his arms around Seto bringing him into a tight embrace, "You could finish school. Without worrying about living expenses. Maybe we could give us another chance too."

"Katsuya, it's not going to work. I need to work so I can pay Mokuba's tuition."

"I have a solution to that too! Have him transfer to my sister school. I'm sure he'd get a full ride no problem."

"No No No! Mokuba can do better than that." I snapped.

"School is school Seto. We're all going to get stuck doing something we don't really care about. Some people just want to have a better school to go along with their misery."

"Jonouchi, it's not happening."

"Whatever."

Jonouchi plopped down at the table. I could see he was unhappy about the triple rejection he'd received. Mokuba entered the room shortly after he needed help with an equation Jonouchi was actually able to help him with it.

The three of us sat down and ate dinner together. I wasn't as hungry as I had felt earlier but with Jonouchi having had invited himself to dinner, it was a good thing.

Mokuba ran out to get a treat from the local convenience store while I cleaned up. Jonouchi was a complete opportunist, not even a moment went by before Jonouchi was coming onto me. He held me tightly so I couldn't slip away from him. I knew that Jonouchi craved the relationship we'd once had. A small part of me wanted it again as well.

I felt his lips leave feather light kisses up my neck onto my jaw. He captured my lips soon after.

Something about his kiss made me feel at ease as though nothing else mattered for that very moment. I could hardly think when we were like this. I felt him push against the refrigerator while his hands tried to make quick work of my clothing.

"No, Katsuya. My brother." I exclaimed pushing him back.

"Sorry, got a little carried away."

Mokuba re-enter the apartment a second after with something that I was sure was either going to keep him up all night or cause nightmares.

"Katsuya are you going to stay the night?" Mokuba asked innocently.

"Sure if it's alright with Seto." Jonouchi told him.

"Mokuba I'm sure Jonouchi has a lot of other things to do before he has class tomorrow."

"Actually, we didn't get any new assignments today. So I'm in the clear."

"Yay, sleepover!"

When we all got in bed it was a very uncomfortable arrangement. I was sandwiched in between my brother and Katsuya. Katsuya was gently rubbing my arm as he waited for Mokuba to fall asleep, which never took long.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." I told him as a turned to face him, "Did you really have to stay the night?"

"I was expecting you to be at work this morning. I stopped by to see ya. But you weren't there. I went from seeing you every day to maybe once a week if I'm lucky."

"I took the day off. I had to drop off Mokuba's tuition-"

"Something's bothering you. I can tell. Tell me." Jonouchi wrapped his arms around me pulling me even closer to him.

"Nothing's wrong." I told him as I pushed away, "Now stop."

Jonouchi loosened his grip on me only to pull me in again. He curled over me as he started in on my neck. I never liked the idea of Jonouchi knowing my weakness but due to situations like this he was always learning something new about me.

"Jonouchi, my brother his less than two feet away." I managed to get out.

"I'll be quick."

"Stop it." I snapped whacking him against his head, "I'll kick you out."

The threat didn't stop Jonouchi from tickling me every few minutes until he fell asleep. I found sleep myself eventually.

I woke up before the alarm went off, about 15 minutes before. I was glad since with only one bathroom it was already difficult getting ready in the morning with just one other person but since Jonouchi slept over it only increased the difficulty. I jumped in the shower to take a quick one but as I was washing my hair I heard the door to the bathroom open.

"Room for one more?" I heard Jonouchi ask as he entered the small shower.

"Jonouchi, I swear. Get out!"

"Oh come on." He whined as he pulled me into a slippery embrace.

I felt my whole body blushing, "My brother is here."

"I'll be quick."

"You say that as if you have an opinion."

"That was one time!"

"I'm really not feeling it right now."

"That's because your hands are up here." Jonouchi told me as he guided my hand down to his junk.

I pulled my hand away instantly, "No."

"When did you become such a tease?"

"When you tried to fuck me with my brother in the bed."

"Hey, I wasn't going to go that far."

I shook my head as I wrung my hair out and turned the water off. I cover myself with a towel and tossed one to Jonouchi. We finished getting ready in mostly silence. Mokuba already dressed for school and finishing eating a quick breakfast.

"Morning, guys." He greeted, "I'm going to head out early. I want to stop but the computer lab and get some essay ideas."

Mokuba left unusually quickly.

Jonouchi walked with me to the restaurant. We talked a bit but it wasn't anything profound. I was actually sad to split ways when we arrived.

"I guess I'll see ya later then." Jonouchi told me as he leaned to hug me.

"Mokuba really likes it when you're around. If you're not busy could come up here to hang out with him until I get off."

"Sure, I'm sure he was pretty bored by himself." He smiled big at me.

"Do you plan to be late today?" I heard my boss stay. He was leaning out of the main door staring at Katsuya and me. This was going to be a very long day.

So how do you like it? I hope you all understand what's going on thus far. Feedback is welcomed. Don't be shy I love reading reviews and private messages.

Don't forget to review! I make me happy.
