Slaved 9 - The Third Request


Joey rubbed his eyes, sitting up in the bed. He looked around the room, his eyes latching onto a nearby mirror. The blond's hair was tussled about, sticking up in random places. Joey yawned once more before getting up out of Kaiba's bed and heading for the door in search of a bathroom.

The blond poked his head around the corner, looking for the bathroom that he'd used yesterday, but he also looking for Kaiba.

Joey scratched his head. He didn't feel him get up out of the bed. Maybe he died.

Hah, maybe he jumped out a window. Joey thought to himself, chuckling softly under his breath. He shrugged his shoulders because after that minute of work to go find the brunette he was already tired of looking for him. The blond sighed and went in search for a bathroom. He'd find one sooner or later.

Ten minutes later, after fixing his hair, using a god knows who's truth brush and using the toilet, Joey exited the bathroom now looking for a change of clothes. He decided to go back to Kaiba's room to look for something to change into. Surely Kaiba had something other than those stupid jackets and pants that he normally wore…

Joey shook his head. Hopefully anyway. The blond walked down the hallway, walking back in the general direction of Kaiba's room.

Upon arriving into the room, Joey threw open the closet door, hoping that there'd be something in here so he wouldn't have to put on his stupid, already worn clothes from yesterday.

His jaw dropped. Nothing? Really? The closet was scattered with the two different jackets, an occasional undershirt, the weird black pants that Kaiba seemed to wear all the time now. Joey sighed, picking up a pair of pants a black undershirt that Kaiba wore under that ridiculous jacket. He frowned. If those pants were made about of spandex, so help him… well he probably wasn't going to do much but, shake his head the next time he saw the brunette.

The blond shrugged off his clothing in a slight hurry. He ran his hand over the pants before slipping them on, trying to see what material they were made out of. He blanched. They clung to him like skinny jeans. He didn't feel like going through the trouble of just trying to get them off. He picked up the shirt, which seemed as if it was at least made out of some sort of cotton. The blond pulled it over his head.

Joey looked at himself in the mirror after the shirt was on. He looked like a messed up Kaiba, minus the jacket. But, of course he still had his sexiness.

The door opened, slowly at first, but then it was open all the way.

"Joey?" a soft voice called into the room. "Nii-sama told me to-"

Mokuba's small head popped into the room and as soon as he made eye-contact with Joey, or rather saw what he was wearing, he burst out into laughter.

The blond frowned, crossing his arms. "What? Is dere somethin' wrong wit what I'm wearin?" Joey asked.

The raven haired boy tried to catch his breath, wiping away the tears that had started to form around his eyes. "No. There's nothing wrong with what your wearing… nothing at all."

Joey took that as an acceptable answer, completely oblivious to the sarcasm in the younger males voice. "So, whut did Kaiba want….?"

"He told me to tell you that breakfast is downstairs… Though it might be cold by now, so you might want to heat it up."

Joey nodded, smiling. "Danks Mokuba." the blond ruffled the smaller boys hair. He'd have to go eat soon before he got really hungry. Then he'd want something else to eat and he'd be to lazy to fix it himself.

"So… Where is your brother anyway?"

Mokuba shrugged. "I'm not sure. I think he headed off to work. He should be back soon."

"Hm…" Joey didn't really feel like talking any more because, he had the sudden urge to go get the food that was downstairs. Probably cold. But really, the blond could care less. It didn't matter as long as it was edible. And… was food.

The blond trampled down the stairs, heading for the kitchen, where ever that place could be. He turned around many corners and went into several rooms before he finally came across a dining room. It wasn't a kitchen but, it still had Joey's food. It was sitting on the table somewhere near the middle.

Joey got an eerie feeling about it. He never did care for eating all by himself. There was just something strange about the whole thing. He picked up the fork and took a bite. It was heavenly. He let the fork linger on his lips as he sat down to eat his quiet breakfast alone. Not that he didn't always eat alone. Just in such a big house he was expecting to see someone else around here somewhere. He sighed, taking another bite.

The plate was finished in a matter of seconds. Joey wiped off his mouth using his sleeve and left the plate on the table.

He turned away from the plate, shrugging. He decided that maybe he should call someone. He still had that cell phone that Kaiba had gave him… where did he put it though? The blond thought for a second before heading back up to the brunette's room looking for the cell phone.

The blond reached the room, he threw aside a couple of articles of clothing. Nope, no cell phone. Then he looked on the shelf and there he found it.

"What was Yugi's number again?" he thought out loud. The blond shrugged and guessed what he thought it was. Then he placed the phone next to his ear and waited.

The dial ring started and Joey fell onto Kaiba's bed. All of a sudden it stopped and someone answered.

"Hello…?" It was Yugi's voice all right.

"Yug? It's me, Joey!" the blond smiled as he talked into the cell phone.

"Ah, Joey? I'm a bit busy right now, can you call back in a minute?"

"Doing wha-"

The dial tone blasted in Joeys ear. Joey stuck out his bottom lip. He could've at least stayed on the phone long enough to tell him what he was doing… It must have been important whatever it was.

The blond turned over so he was looking at the ceiling. It was quiet… And lonely. Maybe he could go find Mokuba to annoy the heck out of him. He'd even decide to bother Kaiba… If he were here that is.

"Why are you wearing my clothes, mutt?" a certain brunette's voice asked.

Joey jumped up, looking around until his eyes met Kaiba's. The CEO was standing in the doorway, his eyebrows raised slightly.

"Ugh… because my clothes are dirty…"

Kaiba took two steps in the room, and continued until he was right in front of the bed. He frowned, as if he was looking at the blond with distaste. "No, these don't suit you. Not in the least."

"Wh-What?" Joey asked.

"That doesn't look good on you. Really, if you needed clothes you could've gotten something better than this."

Kaiba grabbed the hem of Joey's shirt, lifting it up and trying to pull it over his head. Joey on the other hand was yelping and trying to get the brunette to let of his, well Kaiba's, shirt. The blond's face became hot from the light touches that Kaiba was unintentionally giving Joey.

"Cut that o-out!" Joey tried to hit the brunette, struggling to keep is hormones in check.

Kaiba however was more focused on trying to get his shirt off of Joey. The brunette leaned in, trying to get a better grip on the shirt but, he ended up falling onto the blond, catching himself right before he fell against him.

Now that he got a closer look, Kaiba could tell that Joey was blushing… and his heart skipped one beat. Only one but it was enough to make him do something rash.

"Would you mind doing something for me?" the words slipped from his lips. The blond didn't reply only stared into his eyes. "Just close your eyes."

Joey didn't do anything for a second because his thoughts were being cluttered with questions that he doubt were ever going to be answered. Finally, he closed his eyes.

Kaiba, who had let go of Joey's shirt as he fell on top of him, leaned in and placed a soft kiss on the blond's lips.
