CONTAINES G-FORCE SPOILER if you do not want anything given away, I recommend skipping to the "Safe" Mark it is in Bold.
Chapter 11: Rays of Sunshine
It was later that week, with Seto sitting on the couch, Jou sitting beside him, as they watched a movie with his little brother. Whom, was sitting on the floor engrossed in the movie. His brother begged him to get G-Force so they could watch it. And so, they were.
It was at one of the slower part, the 'agent' guinea pigs were in the pet shop, meeting the other guinea pig, and the hamster.
Seto looked at Jou, seeing he was only half watching. A thought was all it took, and Seto reached over and lightly took Jou's hand. Jou looked at his hand before he looked at Seto.
Seto found it hard to not smile. His pup was adorable. The questioning look on his face. He just spoke softly, "You feeling okay?".
Jou blinked, but gave a faint smile, "Ya.", he answered honestly. Since the other day he'd been feeling better. It was practically gone now.
Seto nodded, glad to hear that answer. Another thought went by, and he gently pulled Jou closer, blinking at his confused expression. He just gently wrapped his arms around him.
Seto had frowned faintly at the tenseness of Jou, but, slowly it ebbed off, and he relaxed. Seto sighed softly, but smiled gently.
The two went back to watching the movie. He wasn't sure what they missed, but the 'lead' guinea pig, was now going down the sidewalk with the fatter one from the pet store.
They went through watching the killer coffee maker, the arrival at 'home' and their escape through the little vehicle... Looked like hamster balls if you asked him.
He zoned out at some point, it having lost his interest again. But he 'came back' at the appearance of the once thought dead mole, and here it was actually the mole behind the killer coffee makers.
SPOILER OVER SAFE NOW!
He quietly watched as it came to an end. And chuckled as Mokuba did a cheer and then bounced.
Something he sort of expected, "Seto, can we get a Guinea Pig!?", Mokuba Kaiba begged as he was soon tugging on his brother's arm, not carring he was cuddling with Jou.
"Seto, they can't do what you saw them do in the Movie.", Seto stated softly.
"Well, I know, but you wont let me get a dog!", Mokuba retorted, pouting as he crossed his arms.
"I will get you one, If,",
"There's always an If!", Mokuba wailed.
"Now, let me finish!", Seto responded, a bit crossed he was interupted.
"Sorry...", Mokuba stated softly.
"Now, If, I do not have to fight with you with cleaning your room for three weeks, we'll go to the local pet stores, and you can pick out a pet.".
"Any pet?", Mokuba asked.
"Any Pet.", Seto stated, seriously.
"Just 3 weeks?", Mokuba asked.
"Just 3 weeks, With no fights are arguments.".
Mokuba nodded, "Thank you Seto!", and he practically pounced his brother to hug him.
Seto chuckled softly, "Now, go clean up before bed.", he stated smiling gently.
He sent Mokuba off to his room and looked to Jou, raising a brow, "What is it?".
"You're a good brother", He stated softly.
Seto blinked, confused.
"Sorry..", Jou looked down at his lap and figited slightly.
"No, it's okay Jou.", Seto stated softly, smiling gently, he lightly squeezed the blond, giving him a hug.
Jou blushed, "You're lucky ya know".
Seto blinked, "What makes you say that?", he asked curiuosly.
"You get to watch him grow up, and take care of him.", was Jou's responce.
"It's not always as easy.", Seto stated softly, frowning lightly.
"But you get to.", he insisted.
Seto frowned, thinking.
"I never get to see Serenity, let alone help her.", Jou stated softly.
Serenity... That was Jou's sister, wasn't it? She was younger, right? His mental gears were turning, trying to recall the tournament with Pegasus.. The red haired girl, that was blind, wasn't it?
"Want to try calling her?", Seto asked softly.
Jou blinked, looking at Seto surprised, "I can?", he asked.
Which made Seto frown, "Why would I not let you?", he asked.
Jou frowned, "Oh.. Hibatchi... Never let me call her." He stated softly, as a whisper, looking back down.
Seto frowned, that dick. "Well, Why don't you call her now, it's not to late?".
Jou didn't look up, which made Seto frown, "Pup?", he moved a hand under his chin, and couldn't stop the faint smile reatching his face, "Don't cry puppy.", he stated softly, gently letting his thumb brush the tear off the blonds cheek.
Jou moved, and suddenly hugged him, burying his face into Seto's shoulder..
Seto just smiled, and wrapped his arms around the blond and held him close.
Once he was calm Jou smiled, "So where's, the phone?", He asked, still smiling.
Seto smiled, and told him to use the one in the downstairs hall, for the fact that He wouldn't be interupted there.
Jou left to call.
And Seto pulled out his cell phone. Hitting the necessary key's, he called Yugi, after what 'went down' he had Yugi in his list of contacts.
Once it was answered, Seto quietly explained about Tristen and Otogi knowing.
Yugi had answered that Tristen had called him later that evening, after he had seen Jou himself.
Seto asked Yugi a few things, and then set something up. Well, set it up for Yugi to set it up, and Yugi just had to send whatever to him to take care of the payments for everything.
Once finished he said goodbyes, and hung up his cell phone, then slipped it back into his pocket.
He sat quietly for awhile, but soon slowly stood to see how it was going with Jou, and smiled, seeing the blond smiling as he talked to the person on the other end of the line.
When Jou finished, he was still smiling as he told his sister good night, and let the phone rest in it's cradle.
He turned and jumped seeing Seto smiling, and blushed, "Er, sorry.. Did you ... need somethin'?", Jou asked gently.
Seto shook his head, still smiling, "It's good to see you smiling again.", he stated softly. A bit 'hurt' that he couldn't make the blond smile like that.
Not yet anyhow.
Jou blushed, but nodded.
After that, the two went to tuck in Mokuba, and went to bed themselves.
