Chapter 12:

OK, great! So not only did I probably totally offend Seto last night with the whole running as fast as I could out of his car after he tells me he loves me deal but I now have to spend the day walking in a very awkward position cause I am so fucking swore. Not that I regret last night, mind you. No not at all. But damn I didn't think I would feel this shitty today.

I tried to walk as normally as possible. I think I failed miserably. Oh well. I wonder what people would say if I told them why I'm walking like this. Naughty images are being replayed in my head. No doubt drool is dripping down my chin.

"hey Joey! Whatcha thinking about?"

I am ripped away from my little Seto-Joey porno to find Yugi looking up at me.

"oh Hey Yug! Ah not much. Just thinking about new dueling strategies, ya know how it is."

"ohyeah, I see." He says smiling. Nope, he doesn't have a clue. Way too innocent for that.

We continue talking, now about actual dueling strategies, as we walk down the hall to meet up with the group before class. Finally we find them all together, even Seto is there. I instantly blush. Wow, so I've had sex with him now. Weird. And now that we are 'going out' or whatever am I suppose to like kiss him now or hang on to his hand? Guess I'll just let him take the lead for now.

As we walk up everyone turns to say hi. Seto gives me a small smile. He doesn't lean over to kiss me but he does slyly tuck his hand around my hip and I lean into him. The bell soon rings and we head off to class, I still have Seto's arm around me.

Suddenly he stopped dead in his tracks. He turned to look at me and gave me an odd look.

"what?" I asked. "what's the matter?"

"I guess I should be asking you that?"he asked me

"what do ya mean?"

"well you're the one that's walking funny!"

"shhhh!" I whispered. "well gee, I wonder why Seto! It's not like I was doing anything last night tha tmight make me a little sore today!"

Seto then smiled knowingly. "oh, right.:"

"yeah, right!" I laughed.

"Should we get you a wheelchair?? To weak to handle it are you/" he said teasing me.

"Nah, I'm tough, I can handle it!" I said givin him a playful shove.

Luckily school went by fast. As I was putting my books away in my locker I was wondering if Seto was gonna ask me to come over again. I would've been lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to it.

When I had finished backing my bag I did look up to see Seto heading my way. He was talking on his cell but he leaned over to kiss me quickly. He was talking business I could tell and it sounded important.

"sorry but I have a meeting to go to right away," he said as he put his cell away.

"oh sure, ya got shit to do. It's alright." I said disappointed.

He smiled, "I'll give you a call later though if things don't run too late."

"yeah ok, well I'll probably be up late so....whenever."

"Ok, then I'll talk to you later." He said as he kissed me then walked away.

I started to head for the doors when I heard Yugi call me.

"Hey Joey! Wanna come over to my place?"

so I went and hung out with Yugi, Tristan and Tea for the night. I kinda felt a little guilty about not seeing as much of them as usual but they didn't seem to mind. Guess they understood. We watched tv, played a few games and sat around not really doing much of anything but it was good.

When I got home I sat and watched tv...well more liked flicked by everyshow not really watching anything. At that time of night its mostly just news that's on. Nothing really interesting on. Just as I was about to fall asleep on the couch the phone rang.

"'llo?"

"hi! Joey?" it was Seto.

"oh hey! 'bout time you called!"I said in mock anger. "I was just about to fall asleep from boredom here!"

He laughed "So sorry! My meeting ran later than I expected. So what have you been up to tonight?"

We chatted about nothing for a bit. Just how our days were and shit like that. We had been talking for over an hour when I started to yawn uncontrollably. Seto laughed and said "Maybe I should let you go now. I think you'd better get to bed."

"yeah probably. It's been a long day and last night I had a good work out so, ya know....i'm really tired now."

"mmmmmm....yeah. that's true, you did." He purred. "well I'll see you tomorrow then!"

"yeah, sure thing! See ya then!" I said about to hang up.

"oh and joey!" I heard him yell.

"yeah?"

"um....I love you. Goodnight!"

"wait!...Seto?" I called. I heard him wrestle with the phone.

"hmmm?"

"love ya too."

I heard what sound like a small chuckle.

"ok. Well goodnight then!"

yeah, night!" I said then hung up.
