Joey shut the door behind him, truly upset that Kaiba was a heatless jerk
and would have never helped Mai.
Joey gave a punch to the wall as his sister was up ahead of him walking
back to home.
" Joey? I know how much your upset about Kaiba not doing anything to help me, but we can't make me do anything at all."
Joey took his fist off the wall and and agreed as they walked home fully upset, and they knew they would see Kaiba later on after school as well.
It was the end of school Tea and the others had just finished writing an exam as they walked out of school with Serenity bumping into Kaiba as he stood angered with his eyes glaring.
" Move it Wheeler I have no time for you to say what you need. If it is about Mai forget it."
Serenity backed out of the way as he shoved her abit, totally mad as the others waited for Joey and Serenity to get a move on before Joey could lay a hand on Kaiba, or at least try. As Serenity walked ahead Joey stayed behind looking back as Kaiba walked ahead in the other direction, as he stopped for a short second.
" Joey, why don't you try using your anger on something else, your getting worked up like an angry baboon. Maybe you should stop making an ass of yourself in public, either that or don't take my advice."
Joey walked over to Kaiba angered grabbed his jacket with fire lit in his eyes that didn't seem to phase Kaiba either.
" Listen Kaiba. How can you do that to Mai? Leaving her to suffer like that because you're a selfish jerk! You got enough money to help her on it and you decide not to. I think your too washed you in things money bags to even care!"
" Joey if I were you I would back out of it now. Remember I have a strong grip then you do on me. Why should I waste my money on her and that kid? Even if it is mine? Really it isn't my fault and you can't make me from turning back and helping her. Your still stubborn to think that you can make this much better for Mai, and you trying to be the father, but I can see you Wheeler's have many problems of your own. I could tell when I was there that you wished that child was your Joey. But really it's mine and to you can't call it yours acting like the father or not. So I suggest you keep your mouth shut, because nothing is going to make me walk back in bend of backwards for some girl."
Kaiba grabbed Joey's hand a flung it away as he walked with nerve away from Joey, as he stood there angered by Kaiba. And Kaiba was right, he knew Joey couldn't be the father no matter how hard to tried and that Kaiba wouldn't do anything for his own son. Joey caught up to the others as they all went to check on Mai. Joey knocked on the door as she opened it with the baby held in front of her, and Joey could just think of when that kid would grow up he wouldn't even have a father.
" Hey Mai, so how's things coming along?"
Serenity asked seeing the small kid in her arms as she smiled letting everyone in.
" Everything is alright, from aside yesterday I guess."
They all sat down as Mai gave the baby once again to Joey, who seemed really upset. He sat there with the kid making some more faces as he went into the other room to clear his mind and so he wouldn't have to listen about any more Kaiba.
" I'm just upset that the father turned out to be Seto. I mean I knew if it was you Yugi, or Joey for that matter you guys would have helped, but since the real father is Seto it's just not the same anymore."
Serenity and the others agreed as the boys nodded as the phone rang as Mai picked it up as the doctor's voice came from the other end. Mai played with the phone cord she nodded and quickly hung it up.
" So what's going on?" asked Yugi fixing his wavy front pieces of hair.
" Well the doctor wants me to go in for a last check from having the baby, to check with any problems, I'll have to go by tomorrow and see if everything is alright with the child and myself."
Silence came over for a minute was yelling with happiness gurglingly loudly as they heard Joey hit something and started cursing. It was hard for Mai to explain but when she looked at Joey he acted like the father, more then a friend and it was hard for my to think that, but plainly Joey had risked everything just to support her and Kaiba's baby even though it wasn't his. By the time the bed stopping screaming they noticed Joey holding the baby in the corner of the room sleeping, with the baby in his arms both drooling and sleeping all at the same time.
" It acts exactly like the kid." Tea rolled her eyes and Serenity found it pretty funny.
After the others had decided to sleep over as Joey still had a hold of the baby, and Mai didn't want to lose that baby because of that reason every Joey was more attached then she seemed. But when she had Joey with the baby by himself at times she could always see Joey's irrestible smile all the time, and the baby smiling back as Joey couldn't stop laughing and it was pretty plain to see Joey had already fit as the father figure. Mai had already taken the check-up and she was waiting for more results as it seemed like she couldn't get through this, but Joey had really volunteered to help Mai (money wise) with the kid, even spending time with it and Joey did make a damn good babysitter even though he wasn't the smartest person to know about them.
( What can I say some guys are really clueless!)
Joey had promised after school he'd go see her and walk with the baby through the park and try taking his mind off things. He didn't know if he loved the baby more or Mai, but it was kind of hard for him to decide. As they walked everyone looked up to Joey and Mai like they were a couple and they always gotten that complement.
" Hey that's a cute baby looks exactly like the father!"
The man said as they pasted Joey and Mai and Joey wasn't going to speak up and explain in full details that it wasn't really his. Joey just gave his embarrassed yet happy smile as he moved on not saying a word.
" Hey Mai I just find this funny everyone thinks this is my baby."
Mai smiled as she continued walking with Joey.
" Well he does have blonde hair, but that could have came from me. But why don't we could somewhere I need to rest, I mean soon thoses results are coming back in and I'm just worried about it that's all.
Joey turned to Mai turning her around from the shoulder's, as he stared at her with a smile.
" Hey don't worry about it. I mean I'm helping out, even though it is Kaiba's baby. You can't really call it that if he isn't the one looking after the kid. But I promise Mai everything will work out of ya, soon."
Joey just smiled and Mai nodded
" Hopefully Joey your right."
( Well I can see Joey's really attached to the baby, and Mai but will things go better for me or worse? You'll see in the next chapter!)
" Joey? I know how much your upset about Kaiba not doing anything to help me, but we can't make me do anything at all."
Joey took his fist off the wall and and agreed as they walked home fully upset, and they knew they would see Kaiba later on after school as well.
