Finding Out About Us – Chapter Seven

"Well why won't it work?" Said Mai in exasperation. The girls tried everything they could think of, but the printer wouldn't respond to their commands. "What's wrong with this stupid thing!" Mai glared at it.

"I don't think Yugi's computer is programmed for this printer Mai." Tea interrupted.

Mai rested her head in her hands. "What do you mean?" She sighed.

"We just need to install this printer on the hard drive then we can print." Tea looked confident that this was the problem.

"And how do we do that?" Her voice sounded annoyed.

Tea chewed on her bottom lip deciding if she should answer or not. "Umm...we need to get the disk from Yugi."

Mai raised her hands into the air and let her self fall back onto Yugi's bed. "Great! Just great!" She wailed. "You know Joey's not going to let him give it to us."

*And in the living room *

Once the girls went upstairs Joey came back into the living room and sat down on the couch with Tristan. Trying to get his mind off of Mai and Tea's teasing he grabbed the remote and started flipping through the t.v. channels. But then his anger got the better of him. "How could you let him give the printer to Tea?" He shouted at Tristan.

"Me? I didn't do anything." Tristan crossed his arms over his chest and frowned back at Joey. "How come your mad at me?"

Joey took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Exactly." He said through gritted teeth. "That's the problem. You never do anything!" He had started to raise his voice again.

Tristan clenched his fist. He wasn't about to let Joey place the blame on him for this. "And what was I supposed to do, jump up and run away with the printer." He shot back sarcastically.

Yugi suddenly bounded into the living room laughing at both Joey and Tristan. "Come on you guys. It's no big deal."

Joey jumped off the couch. "No big deal! What do you mean no big deal? Of course it's a big deal. Can't you see that we're practically at war with them?" Joey flared. Then he narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Yugi. "Whose side are you on anyway?" He asked.

"I think he's gone off the deep end Yugi." Tristan interrupted.

"The deep end? I'll show you the deep end!" Joey exploded rolling up his sleeves. "I'm going up there once and for all!"

Yugi's own eyes widened disbelief. "Is this all because I gave the printer to Mai and Tea?" He asked Tristan cautiously.

Tristan nodded in response. "Yep, he went off the deep end. There's no bringing him back now."

Yugi couldn't help it and started to laugh again. "Umm...Joey, you really shouldn't worry about it. You see the printer won't work without this." He smiled as he held up a computer disk.

"Damn it Yugi." Joey breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head. "You couldn't tell me this earlier?"

Tristan laughed as well. "Oh I don't know, it would have been down right hilarious to see Joey charge in on them."

Yugi shrugged. "Maybe you're right Tristan, but we still don't know what the girls are up to."

"So its back to the drawing board then." Tristan complained.

"Why don't you guys help me set up this magazine display for Grandpa in the game shop instead?" Yugi asked. "I could use the help and it'll do us some good to get our minds off Tea and Mai."

"But first things first." Joey said patting his grumbling stomach. "I work better after a full meal."

"Go ahead and help yourself." Yugi motioned towards the kitchen.

* Back in Yugi's Room*

Tea sighed. "You know, it's really too bad that we couldn't print any of these stories off."

Mai nodded. "But hey, at least we can still read them."

"Do you remember that story about the guy who got turned into a girl?"

Mai nodded again. "What was it called again? The China Curse by ACME-Rian?"

Tea grinned. "Yeah, that's the one. I keep thinking what if that happened to Joey? Could you imagine Joey as a girl!"

Mai broke into a fit of giggles. "Or Yami!"

Tea could barley get her words out as she gasped with laughter. "Yami...in a...dress!"

"Or...or what about the story by Dark Chameleon? I think it was called Dreamscape." Mai beamed. "You know..." She nudged Tea in the ribs. "The one about you and Bakura together."

Tea stopped laughing and grew quiet. "I don't think that it was all that funny."

"Oh come Tea. It's not like I'll tell him or anything." Mai smirked cheekily.

"That's fair." Tea nodded. "Just like I won't tell Joey about your feelings for him in the story written by sailorearth1023!" She laughed hysterically.

Mai threw a pillow into her friend's face. "Ooohhh Bakura!" Mai feigned, pretending to be Tea.

Tea picked up the pillow and chucked it at Mai. "Ohhhh Joey!" She teased back.

*The Kitchen*

Joey paced back and forth in the kitchen. When the girls first took the printer upstairs it had been quiet for quite sometime. And it had been quite unnerving. But now that he could hear the loud bouts of laughter once again, Joey decided that the laughter was worse. Definitely a lot worse. He had to do something to take his mind off of it; they were really starting to drive him crazy.

Rummaging inside of the cupboards Joey grabbed a box of fruit loops. "Oh yea, no milk." He grumbled throwing the box of cereal back into the cupboard and slammed the door shut. "Ya got anything to eat in this place Yugi?" He called. Receiving no answer Joey headed towards the stairs. "I'm gonna use the shower." He called again.

"There's towels in the hall closet, and don't use up all the hot water ok." Came Yugi's reply from the game shop.

Joey trudged up the stairs trying to ignore the twitching feeling in his stomach when he walked past Yugi's bedroom. He could hear laughter from behind the door. Gritting his teeth he walked on and grabbed a towel from the hall closet and headed for the bathroom.

Authors Note: I'm hoping that someone could clarify something for me. I believe that I've got the idea of what yaoi is about, but what exactly do the letters stand for?

I admit, this chapter was pretty slow (it seemed more like a drama than comedy to me) but I want to build up to something that a few of the guys are going to freak out about in the next chapter. Thanks for your encouragement and advice from all you reviewers! J
