Picture

The rain had begun to fall and Kaiba dashed inside. He passed by the phone in his office and looked down, seeing the flashing light on his answering machine, his heart skipped a bit and he egarly pressed it. Ten messages and none of them from Jou. He sighed and lowered his head into his hands as he fell into his seat. The rain water dripped off his body, creating small pools of water around him. His blue eyes slowly glazed over the contents of his desk and noticed something that was missing. That's right. He had put that picture away the day of the argument. Slowly, he reached over to the drawer and opened the second to the last. There was a picture of Jou there that no one other than himself knew he had. His fingers trembled. He wanted to hear Jou's voice once more. Quickly darting fo the phone, he dailed the blonde's number. It rang.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

Please pick up the phone… there was nothing.
