Chapter Four
Seto made all the arrangements, and then he took Joey to the undisclosed safe house.
"You will be safe here" Seto told him.
"Listen Seto, I really don't know how I can repay you for all of this" Joey told him.
"I'm helping one friend, and am trying to make another one." Seto said to him.
"You want to be my friend? Why?" Joey asked.
"Why not? I don't have many friends, and I would be happy to be able to call you a friend" Seto said.
"I'd like that too." Joey told Seto.
Seto stayed the night, to help Joey to adjust being someplace strange. "How do I get in touch with you if I need to?" Joey asked Seto.
"That phone is connected directly with the Mansion, and if you need anything all you need to do is to call." Seto told Joey.
"How long will I have to stay here?" Joey asked feeling a little nervous, hell he was scared shitless.
"My Attorney's are looking into the matter, and when I get back, I'm meeting with them. I will let you know what I find out." Seto said knowing that Joey was getting more nervous.
"Alright" Joey said.
They had dinner, and then they retired to their bedrooms.
Sometime in the night, Joey had a nightmare, and woke Seto up screaming. Seto ran to his room, and wrapped his arms around Joey to settle him down.
Joey came to, and when he noticed who was holding him, he broke down and sobbed and sobbed. "You know what happened to me, don't you?" Joey said through his tears.
"Yes" Seto said.
Joey wiped his face, and tried to smile, but failed.
'Joey, I need to tell you something, I understand what you are going through. Seto said. When I was growing up, my father use to abuse me. If I didn't obey, he said that he would start on Mokie, and I couldn't let that happen, so I submitted and let him continue to abuse me.' Joey started to cry again, but not for himself, for Seto.
"Will the dreams ever stop?" Joey wanted to know.
"Yes, Seto said, but they never really go away." They laid there for a long time, just holding onto each other.
Seto wanted to make Joey's dreams go away, because he started having feelings for him, and he didn't know what to do about it. Maybe if I talk to Yami, it might help, he thought.
Joey didn't know why he was having the feelings he was having for Seto. Maybe it was just gratitude for what he was doing for him, he didn't know, but maybe if he talked to Yugi it would make sense.
