~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Seto's P.O.V)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'i can't believe this is happening' i thought to my self as i held the younger version
of joey in my arms, watching in mild fascination as he pulled his chubby little toes
into his mouth. "I'm never kissing you again." i mumbled under my breath. he looked
up at me, giving me a sheepish grin before going back to sucking on the tiny digets.
i sigh. "Who am i kidding? you don't know i'm your boy friend. hell, you don't even
know who i am." i smiled slightly as he began to gurggle, tiny dropplets of drool dribbling
down his chin. 'thisisn't so bad. he's actually kinda cute.' my eyes nearly popped out of my
head and i quickly slapped my self to rid my self from that thought before tapping on the
black window that sepporated my self from my limo driver as we pulled up in the grocery
store parking lot. i took a minute to wrap the fuzzy blue blanket tighter around Joey
before scooting out of the limo and turned towards the driver. "I'll be out in a half hour."
that stated, i strode towards the store entrance, amking sure to maintain my cool calm composure
as not to gain too much attention. i was, after all, the Seto Kaiba. the great president and CEO of
the infamous Kaiba corp. there for i can't have reporters or even some of my rather obsessed fans
reckognizing me, especially with a baby. after all reporters have a nasty habit of starting rumors.
i smirked as i pictured some of the things i'd find in the sunday paper if they found out. i can see it
now- 'SETO KAIBA, KIDNAPPS BABY' or 'CEO SECRET LOVE AFFAIR' i couldn't help but laugh at this.
ah, those reporters. looked down through watery eyes to see Joey looking up at me, brown
eyes wide with curiosity as i chuckled lightly. "what the hell are you looking at?" i asked, giving a playful
glare, but not enough to scare him. when i was younger, mokuba always laughed when i acted as if i were angry,
but he knew the truth. i smiled as Joey gave me a tooth-less grin and giggled, those big brown puppy eyes i had
fallen in love with twinkling with excitement as we laughed together. my laughter came to a hault as
we reached the store entrance, my angry scowl returning to my face as i walked in, glaring at any one who dare get
in my way. once inside, i scanned the area for a spare shopping cart. having found one, i carefully placed Joey
in the small seat in the front, buckling him in before pushing off and heading towards the baby area.
it had been forever since i had gone shopping on my own. ever since i had been adopted, the servants had done
just about every thing for me. even after i turned 16, had m driver's license and my so-called father had passed away,
i still didn't go any where with out a guard or a driver. but now that mokuba and i were living on our own, (with the
exception of Joey)i was free to do what ever i like. and i think this shopping thing's going to be one of them.
"i think we should do this again some time. what do ya' say pup?" Joey quircked an eye brow at me before giggling and
grinning at me. "I'll take that as a yes. but first, we've got to find some way to get you back to normal."
those words fell upon def ears as Joey began to subconsciously suckle on his chubby index finger, watching
in fascination as people bustled around grabbing this and that as they went, eager to get their shopping done.
i smiled at him and leaned forward to pinch his tiny rosy cheek, making him growl in irritation and swat
my hand away. a small smile spread across my features. a real smile, not that smart ass know it all smirk i give
just to throw people off. yet my smile didn't last long as i heard Joey whimpering. i looked back up to see him pointing
and crying as some unidentified person came into view. "Seto!" my head snapped up as i heard a familiar high-pitched
squeel that almost sounded like my name. "Seto, over here!" and there she was. no, more like 'it'. there 'it' was.
Mai valentine. the face of evil. *dum dum dummmmm...creepy music* "Um, Mai, uh, hi!" i said nervously. as the annoying
blonde came closer, i heard Joey whimper and curl in a ball, attempting to hide from the approuching breast monster
as i liked to call her. (A/N: hehe! ^_^) to tell you the truth, i didn't blame the little guy. Mai could be pretty scary.
sadly, there was no time to hide as she was soon standing right in front of me, babbling on about..something. i wasn't
quite sure what it was though. all i heard was 'oh seto you look sooooooo cute and oh seto it's so nice to see you!'
and other over-exadurated comments purposely ment to suck up to me only for my money, maybe throw some sex in there while
she's at it. it wasn't working. i only hoped that she wouldn't notice Joey. i don't think he'd like that too much.
but, sadly, my wish wasn't granted as Mai quickly caught sight of the huddled up ball of naked baby, only covered in the
thin blue blanket i had brought him in. "Oh my god! Seto, your baby's so cute! can i hold him?" i opened my mouth to
protest, but nothing came out as she had already scooped Joey up in her arms, crushing him between her breasts, making
him wiggle and squirm to the freedom he just couldn't grasp. "So, is he yours?" it took me a minute to answer, searching
for the right excuse to use as not to tell her the rather unbelievable proof. "Um, no, he's..he's Joey's cousin.
i-i'm watching him while Joey's, um, visiting his sister." she blinked at me a few times before smiling and hugging Joey
even closer to her, making him let out a muffled cry. "Oh, i see. well, he sure is cute!" she claimed, giving him a hard
squeeze. that did it. before i could stop him, Joey let out a loud wail sounding much like the morbid cry of the
banshee, signaling the time of death. Mai quickly covered her ears, dropping Joey not so gently on the ground.
i gasped as Joey fell on is naked bottom, making him cry even louder, his hands balling into fists and covering his eyes
as if he felt embarrassed to cry in front of me. i didn't hesitate to rush to his side, scooping him into my arms
and pulled him over my shoulder, rubbing his back soothingly. "Mai! how could you? you could have hurt him!"
i shouted at her, in result causing her to glare at me, her hands still covering her ears. "I couldn't help it! the little
brat started screaming!" i felt pure anger begin to bubble up inside me as she refered to Joey, MY joey, as a
'little brat'. "you were suffocating him! of course he screamed!" Mai turned cherry red with anger, making Joey wince,
but appearing not at all intimidating to me. "Well fine then! take the brat and get him out of my face!"
i smirked and placed Joey back in the cart, once he had stopped sobbing. "you're lucky he's not hurt. just scared.
Other wise i would've had to hurt you back. see ya later jugs." with that, i pushed the cart forward,
smirking as i saw Mai's jaw drop in shock, then scowl at me before storming off to places unknown. as i looked back
at her retreating figure, i was shocked to say the least to see her light lilac thong making it's self known to the world
as the whole back of her skirt was left un-ravled. i was confused beyond reason until i turned to see Joey tangled
up in a giant mass of purple thread, the end of the giant string clutched tightly in his balled-up fist.
i snorted, trying my best to hold back laughter as Mai was still close enough to hear me, and much to my dismay, she did.
she turned on her heel to face me, a look of pure hatred written all over her face. "What the hell are you laughing at
Kaiba?!" she screamed at me, making me giggle even more. "oh, nothing. but, tell me mai, was that thong on sale? if so,
i'd just LOVE to know where you got it!" she looked confused until she too saw the thread-covered baby. her eyes widened
considerably as she slowly turned around, only to come face to face with her worst night mare in the form of a
practically bare bottom. she slowly turned back to me and whimpered, her bottom lip trembling slightly before she let
out a loud cry of agony, bursting into tears and running out of the store hysterically as every one watched and laughed.
i felt a ping of guilt for a second, but quickly brushed it away, telling my self that she deserved it, then returned to
my shopping. i quickly grabbed some baby T's, some diapers, a bottle, some formula and a pacifier then rushed back to
the check-out line, eager to get out of the busy building.
