Note: Sorry I've been so late with these chapters. I've had a lot of uni homework. Lol. In these next chapters, you'll see more of Seto and Joey as a couple, and less of Seto and Atem as a couple. Atem kept rejecting poor Seto and treated him just like all men treat women. I know I've said that I wasn't gonna make Seto suffer a lot, but these ideas came to my mind. You'll see why. I can't reveal it in my notes. You'll have to keep reading. ^^
Hang in there, Seto...
Seto's heartbeat dropped at an all time low of 20. Then it stopped within seconds. Seto died.
"Get the defibrillators now! " The doctor shouted.
The nurse that tended to Joey earlier got the defibrillators and brought them to the doctor.
"Clear! " he yelled.
The doctor and his medical team were now in a desperate battle to save Seto's life. Seto died, but the doctor and the nurse still didn't want to give up on him.
{Seto's afterlife}
Seto woke up.
"What? Where am I? " Seto asked.
His vision was blurred, but then it cleared up. He's saw beautiful white clouds. He's never seen clouds like those ones before.
As soon as he got up, he's noticed he was wearing a white kimono with gold embroidery. He's held his hand out, and a beautiful pink butterfly stood on his index finger as he stretched it out.
He's saw a white dove with an olive sprig approach him.
"For me?" Seto asked with a smile on his face.
The dove nodded at him as if he understood what Seto was saying.
"Thank you! " He said.
The cold-hearted Seto Kaiba that we all know just smiled!
Suddenly, two figures approached him.
As soon as they got closer, his eyes widened and filled with tears.
He's couldn't believe it.
"M-mom? Dad? " He asked with tears in his eyes.
He's was shaking.
"Yes, Seto!" The man replied.
Seto broke down and cried as soon as he heard his father's voice.
He's immediately hugged both of his parents.
"It really is you! " He cried louder than ever.
Good parents hugged him.
Seto wanted to touch his parents' face.
He touched both faces.
"Am I dreaming? " he cried.
"No, son. You're not dreaming. You're in heaven with us. " his mother said.
"Heaven? " Seto asked.
"Yes, son. " Seto's father said.
"I thought I was going to hell.. " Seto said.
"Look son, we need to talk. " His father said.
His mother showed him images of the doctors desperately trying to revive him.
"Seto, we love you. But we are very disappointed in you. " She said.
"You just died of a drug overdose. Why did you do it? " His father asked.
"D-d-d-died? " Seto asked.
"Yes. " His mother said.
"And who will take care of Mokuba?! " Seto asked.
He saw an image of Mokuba and Joey crying together.
"Mokuba... Joey... " Seto said with a lot of sadness in his heart.
"I don't know why I did it... I really don't know. I'm so sorry. " Seto cried.
"I know that I did something really stupid, and I shouldn't have. But if I can go back, I promise not to be an asshole to everyone anymore. I promise not to do drugs anymore. And I also promise to take great care of my little brother. I love him more than anything in the world... And Joey... I promise to love him like he deserves to be loved. I love that man with all my heart.
Seto's parents hugged him
"We know you will. " Seto's dad said.
They also showed him an image of Gozaburo burning in hell and screaming.
"Be kind, Seto. Or else, you'll end up like that poor man. " His mother said.
"Yes, mom. I promise to be kind. " Seto said.
"You need to go back. They're getting ready to deliver the news of your passing to Mokuba and Joey." His father said.
"Oh no! " Seto cried.
"You won't recover right away. You must remember to fight, Seto. " His mother said.
"And tell Mokuba that we love him. Send our greetings to Roland as well. And also, you and Joey have our blessing, should you want to spend the rest of your life with him. " His father said.
"Thank you, mom and dad. I love you. " Seto said.
Seto hugged and kissed his parents one more time, and then he went back.
{Hospital room}
"We lost him, guys. Now we can't do anything to save him. " The doctor said.
"Such a shame... This young man had his whole life ahead of him... Sadly, he's lost his battle to drugs. " The doctor continued.
The nurse cried a little.
"Arthur..., " She said.
"Sarah, I'm sorry, darling. " The doctor replied.
"I feel sad for his brother and his boyfriend. " She said.
"I know. I do too. I need to find a way on how to give them the news." The doctor said.
The nurse went up to Seto.
"I don't know who you are, but you are a young man with a future and people who love you. Please comeback. "
The doctor left to go give Mokuba, Joey, Roland and Yugi the news. He brought a chaplain with him.
"Family and friends of the patient Seto Kaiba" He asked as he went into the waiting room.
Mokuba, Joey, Yugi and Roland stood up.
Mokuba was in tears. He could tell that he was not going to get good news.
"Please god, please don't let it be what I think it is..." He thought.
"Doctor, how is my boyfriend?" Joey asked.
"Let me take you to my office." He said.
"All of us?" Joey asked.
"Yes." The doctor said.
They walked to his office and sat down. Mokuba saw a box of tissues.
"Oh no..." He thought.
"We tried everything we could to save the patient. I refused to give up on him. But unfortunately..." The doctor said.
Mokuba started sobbing.
Joey held his hand.
"Seto is ok, right?" Joey asked.
A nurse came in running and brought someone with him.
"This person is related to the patient Seto Kaiba." he said.
It was Bakura. He immediately ran towards Mokuba.
"Mokuba, is everything ok?" He asked.
"I don't think so." He cried.
Bakura hugged Mokuba. He hated seeing his best friend in despair. (Note: At that time, Bakura and Mokuba were friends, and later became best friends. They liked eachother, but Bakura wanted to wait for Mokuba to turn 18. Mokuba kind of liked Bakura at the time. But, he was questioning it because he already had a girlfriend.)
[Seto's hospital room]
Seto wasn't covered yet.
Tears started to leak from Seto's eyes. The nurse noticed it.
His heart started to beat again.
"It's a miracle!" she shouted.
She went to go look for the doctor and the chaplain immediately.
She ran to the waiting room, but she didn't see the doctor or Seto's family and friends.
"Where is Arthur?" She asked as soon as she saw the nurse that escorted Bakura.
[Doctor's Office]
Bakura and Joey were holding Mokuba's hand.
"Despite our efforts, unfortunately, the patient passed away." He said.
Mokuba fell to the floor. He cried silently. He lost all of his strength, he couldn't sob anymore. It's like he was lost.
"Seto... You're gone." He mumbled while crying.
Joey sobbed. Roland sobbed.
"My son! Nooooo!" Roland cried.
Bakura and Yugi cried. Bakura hugged Mokuba tightly.
"Mokuba, I'm always going to be with you no matter what. I'll never leave you alone." Bakura cried.
"We're here for you." Bakura said.
Roland, Yugi, Joey and Bakura were huddled around Mokuba to show him that he wasn't alone.
The nurse stormed in.
"Arthur! He's alive!" She shouted.
"What?" The doctor said.
"His heart started to beat again! And he cried a few tears! It's a miracle, Arthur!" She said.
The doctor left to go see Seto.
She went up to Joey and Mokuba.
"Seto is alive. He came back." She said.
"Mokuba, did you hear that?" Bakura asked.
He just kept mumbling Seto's name.
"Poor thing. He took it really hard." She said.
It took a few minutes for Mokuba to be out of the shock he was in.
"Mokuba, Seto is alive!" Bakura said.
"Really?" Mokuba asked.
The doctor came back.
"Seto is indeed alive!" He said.
Mokuba smiled. Joey cried. Everyone was happy to hear that.
"He's still in a coma, but he is alive. He could progress. Mr. Wheeler's blood is helping him." The doctor said.
"Can we see him?" Mokuba asked.
"He's getting settled into his room. We'll let you know when you can see him." The doctor said.
"Thank you, Doctor." Everyone said.
Mokuba, Bakura, Joey, Roland and Yugi went back to the waiting room.
"I wonder if we can ll go see him." Yugi said.
"I think Mokuba should see him first. And then Joey and then we an go see him afterward. I'm sure they'll allow one person at a time." Roland said.
"Point." Yugi said.
The doctor and the nurse came.
"Ok, the patient is ready for visitors. One visitor is allowed in the room. We do have a window so you guys an see him through the window. You can take turns to come in." The doctor said.
Joey smiled at Mokuba.
"Are you ready to see your brother?" He asked him.
"Absolutely!" He said.
Amelia rushed to the waiting room and hugged Roland immediately.
"I'm so sorry I'm late, honey. My flight was delayed. How is Seto?" She asked.
"He's in a coma, but slowly progressing." Roland said. "Thank you for coming, love." He said.
They walked to the room where Seto was situated. They were able to see him through the window.
Yugi was shocked to see Seto.
Seto was hooked up to some machines and had an oxygen mask on.
"Wow! I never thought I'd see Kaiba like that." Yugi thought.
Tears flowed from Joey's eyes. Roland was also shocked. Amelia held him tight as she noticed that Roland tried very hard not to cry.
Bakura and Mokuba cried.
"Bakura, I can't do this alone. Can you come with me?" Mokuba said.
They both looked at the doctor for his approval.
"It's fine. The both of you can go." The doctor said.
They went in. Bakura went in to provide moral support for Mokuba. Even though he wanted to wait for Mokuba to turn 18, he couldn't conceal the fact that he loved him.
The nurse approached Joey and everyone else that was with him.
"I haven't formally introduced myself. My name is Sarah Watkins. Dr. Arthur Watkins is my husband." She said.
"It's a pleasure Mrs. Watkins. Thank you and thank you, Dr. Watkins for what you've done for my boyfriend." Joey said.
"We really couldn't give up on him. He's a young man with a bright future ahead of him. My wife was moved by your story." The doctor said.
"Please, call me Sarah." She said cheerfully.
"I'm Roland, this is my partner Amelia. Seto and Mokuba are like our children to us." Roland said.
"Thank you for saving our son." Amelia continued.
"I'm Yugi. I'm friends with the Kaiba brothers, Bakura and Joey." Yugi said.
"And, of course, I'm Joey Wheeler. Seto's boyfriend." Joey said.
"That guy in there with Moke is Bakura, His best friend." Joey continued.
After a half an hour, Mokuba and Bakura left the room.
Mokuba held Joey's hand.
"Joey... Thank you so much for loving my brother asked much as you do. Your love is what saved him. You loved him so much, you made a sacrifice to save him. " Mokuba said.
"I didn't make a sacrifice, Mokuba. I did what I knew in my heart that I should do. I'd do anything for him. " Joey said.
"I know that you're afraid of needles and blood, Joey. Seto should never, ever question your love for him. You proved to everyone what love can do. " Mokuba said.
"Moke, please don't tell Seto that I gave him my blood. " Joey said.
"Aw man. I wanted to tell him, but I'm sure you have your reasons. I can tell that somewhere deep down, Seto is there, and he's waiting for you. " Mokuba said.
"Thanks, Moke. " Joey said.
Joey went in the room.
He sat down next to Seto.
He's immediately grabbed Seto's hand and held it. He cried. His teardrops fell on Seto's hand.
"Remember the first time we held hands like this? It was a rainy day. I was jogging in the park and you were sitting under a tree reading a book. We bumped into eachother. I accidentally fell into your arms and the book flew away. At first you were a little pissed, but then it rained. You wore this beautiful white turtleneck sweater. I was wearing a white T-shirt and a red overshirt. We stared at eachother. I kept looking at your beautiful blue eyes. I didn't care how big of an asshole you were at the time. I was already in love with you. But I was mesmerized. I fell even more in love with you. The rain made my shirt so wet, it clung on to my body. Your sweater also got soaked and clung onto your body. And then our hands met and clamped together. We got closer and closer. Out of nowhere, we kissed. We got up and kissed some more. We didn't care that it rained. We kissed and held hands. You then took me to your car and asked me to take my clothes off. And we did. We made sweet love in the car. It was my first time, and it was beautiful. You whispered that you loved me over and over again in my ear. When we finished, you made me put on your coat, and took me to the Kaiba mansion. We went to the music room and played together. You played your violin, and I played the piano. After that, we held hands like this again and became boyfriends. It was the best day of my life. " Joey said.
Even though Seto was in a coma, he still heard everything. He shed a tear. Joey saw that.
He kissed Seto.
"I love you. " Joey said.
Another tear ran down one of Seto's eyes.
Joey, Mokuba, Roland, Amelia, and Bakura kept visiting Seto for three months. Joey, Mokuba, and Roland took care of him and often tools turns to spend the night with him. He recovered fast. Bakura was obviously there to support Mokuba, and also because he cared about Seto.
One day, Roland, Amelia, Joey, Bakura, Mokuba, Yugi, Atem and Solomon (Yugi's grandpa) were visiting Seto in the hospital. He woke up. His eyes were wide open.
The first thing he saw was Mokuba and Joey uncovering a cake. It was Seto's birthday.
Seto couldn't talk, but he immediately pulled Mokuba's shirt.
Mokuba turned around and noticed Seto's eyes were open.
"Seto! " He shouted joyfully.
Joey felt like he was dreaming. His love finally woke up.
(Back to the present. Seto's hospital room)
"Yeah, Mokuba. I don't need you to remind me! " Seto grunted.
"Are you on drugs again? " Mokuba asked.
"No. I'm not doing that shit ever again. " Seto said.
"Addaboy! " Mokuba said and rubbed Seto's hair.
Bakura came in.
"Sorry to interrupt, guys, but you have a call, love. " Bakura said.
"Thanks, babe. I'll take it. Can you babysit your future brother in law for me, please? " Mokuba said.
"Of course! " Bakura chimed.
"Hello? Mokuba Kaiba speaking. "
"Hey Mokuba" a voice said from the other line.
