Kaiba blinked twice. What!
'What?' he stuttered out, his lips barely moveable. Joey stood up, brushing him. Pulling on his shirt, he turned away from the brunet.
'This. All of this, I knew about it.' His voice was emotionless, no remorse, no anger. 'I knew about Mokuba from the start. I knew how he felt. We discussed it the first night I went to your house for the project.' He smiled to himself, 'After the problems with Duke, I joined in. With your company in the way, Mokuba would always come second, and I would mean nothing to you.' He paused. 'Don't bother trying to say anything. You know it's true, dammit Kaiba, the whole fucking world knows it's true.'
'How much did you plan, exactly?'
'We planned that you'd come back. Every blackmail stunt. Getting shot. The destruction of Kaiba castle, though we didn't think you'd burn your fucking house, seriously. That was a little dramatic.'
'Fucking dramatic? You killed people to get time from me? Where the fuck does this come in? Zigfried is dead because of your twisted fucking plan.'
'He chose that. Besides, we don't even know if he's dead for sure.'
'A tower fucking collapsed on him!'
'You'd be surprised.'
'Did you plan on that happening?'
'No. I knew he knew the plan, I phoned him when you went to Kaiba mansion. Seriously, you're very predictable. You might want to change some of your processes.'
'I'm fucking predicable?' Kaiba growled, tugging at his hair. 'Compared to two fucking maniacs who have half destroyed my company…and for what? I think predictable is good around you. It's fucking safe.'
'We destroyed it for you. Don't you even get it?' Joey whizzed around, peering straight into molten blue eyes that leaked down pale cheeks. It was all becoming too much for the brunet. The lack of sleep, the confusion, the conspiracy and his damned emotions. Who invented emotions? They should be fired.
'No.' He spat out bitterly, 'You did it for yourselves. Both you and Mokuba.' He snarled, his eyes burning with raw emotions, 'You tricked me and you used me, you destroyed everything I fucking worked for, everything I suffered for. Every birthday I missed, every Christmas, it was all in vain, you destroyed it.' Joey's eyes narrowed mercilessly.
'No.' He turned his head to the side, still watching the other man, 'You destroyed it. You didn't have to miss anything. You chose to. You chose to abandon everyone, to make unnecessary sacrifices from impatience. We couldn't stand it. Not any more. Not ever again. We wanted it to end. We wanted you to love us like we fucking love you, to come before a company, to come before torture and problems. But no. That's not how you see it. You focus on the company first, how everything is wrong with the company. Fuck how me and Mokuba feel, fuck how we risked everything to get you, and that we were so hurt we'd even go this far. We tried talking, we tried getting you to relax, but no, you never fucking listen. You never want to listen. You are Seto Kaiba, CEO and sole owner of Kaiba Corporation. Child genius, games master, undefeated except for one. So why would you listen to us? Us who lie beneath you with our feeble and weak emotions, or needs instead of business orientation. It didn't matter what we fucking did, it never got through to you, you left us no choice!' Joey's voice raised from a bitter whisper to a stern yell. His emotions began to tear through him, ripping at his heart, tearing at his skin and burning through his eyes. His blood boiled to see the brunet's eyes stream, for him to show emotion, recognition of his own humanity. If he wasn't so pissed off, he'd be touched. Kaiba stood up quickly, grabbing the blond by the face, crushing their lips together in a desperate kiss…

Ok really short chapter. My hand keeps going numb, covered in bruises from jui jitsu but guess what? Adam was so confident he could beat me up, we sparred, fight was over in about 5 seconds. I won. Using guard. Woo! Anna 1, Adam 0. Now just need to beat up my boyfriend, who's got 4 wins up on me. Damn chokes. Day off tomorrow so I'm gonna see legend of aang, and sleep. And write as I'm working Sunday. Twice, noooooooooooooooooooooo! Only 1 or 2 chaps left, so I'm sad to say it's almost over. Happy or sad ending? Up to you...
