******************************************************
Seto sat behind his large, shining wooden desk in his home office, looking into the screen of his laptop while trying to keep his mind on his work while he typed at quick speeds.
A window three times the size he was, was directly behind him with the blue curtains wide open to allow the sunshine in, on Mokuba's insistence that he wasn't getting enough of it. So he kept them open despite the glare the sun put on his screen.
He didn't have to go into the office today, so he decided to get some work done before the business party tonight and was simple dressed in his casual clothes, complete with the navy blue trench coat he wore on Pegasus's island.
The only other sound in the room aside from the tapping of his keyboard, what the faint shuffling sound of a broom while Katsuya quietly swept up the room with his head down, trying to get his work done and leave the room before he'd get into anymore trouble.
Despite how quiet he was being though, Seto simply couldn't take his mind or his eyes off of him. His presence alone was a distraction. Whether or not it was a good one had yet to be decided.
`Kami he looks so good.' He thought to himself quietly, continually shooting his eyes from the screen to Katsuya and back again. Inwardly cursing himself for not getting his work done like he should be doing. He was wearing a white t-shirt with a blue sleeves and a blue rectangle in the middle with a pair of blue jeans, the same as he wore when he was competing in battle city.
What he didn't know was that eventually Katsuya caught him taking quick looks at him, and the blonde couldn't help but smirk with the thought of what he was doing to his employer.
"See something ya like?" He asked in a cocky manner.
Seto merely looked up at him with his head still down before raising an eyebrow at his sudden behaviour. He then smirked. "What if I do?" He asked while getting up and motioning for him to come forward with his hand.
`I could use a break anyway.' He thought, getting excited that something was finally going to happen between him and his puppy.
The blonde smirked before complying to his command. When he got behind the desk to face the teen CEO, Seto quickly pushed all of the papers and other items he had off of his desk including the laptop, letting it carelessly smash on the floor before quickly lifting him up by his ass to sit on it while ravishing his mouth.
Katsuya almost immediately opened his legs before tightly wrapping them around Seto's waist, insuring that he didn't go anywhere on him while he continued to kiss him and run his hands under his t-shirt and across his chest.
The CEO then ran his tongue across the blondes lips, a silent request for entrance that he didn't even need to perform because the puppy was already his.
It was actually an act that surprised the both of them. For Seto it was because he wasn't normally the type to ask for things, and Katsuya because he knew this too.
`Fuck it. I'll make an exception for him.' He thought to himself while delving his tongue into the hot space that awaited him, causing his puppy to moan in pleasure as he brought his own hand up to take a fistful of the CEO's brown hair.
It wasn't long until the combination of their heated kissing and closeness of their waists brought them to a highly painful arousal that simply begged to be taken care of. But just as Seto reached down and started to work on the button and zipper of the blonde's jeans, there was a booming knock at the door.
He quickly looked up from what he was currently doing for only a split second to glare at the door, and silently vow that whoever was on the other side of it would be getting a *severe* beating for interrupting this. Unless it was Mokuba of course.
Strangely enough, when he finally decided to simply ignore the door and go back to what he was doing with his blonde puppy, Jou was gone.
"What the hell?!?" Seto practically shouted in stunned shock. Katsuya just had his legs around his waist and suddenly he was gone!?! Where the hell did he go?!?
That booming sound interrupted his thoughts again and just like before he angrily glared at the door, only this time it was with a fire in his eyes as he marched over to answer it to find out what the hell was going on.
`If this is another stupid take-over-the-world thing from Egypt and it has something to do with my puppy's disappearance, then there's going to be hell to pay!!' He inwardly snarled as he threw open the wooden door, completely unprepared for what he saw.
His face immediately fell from anger to fear and shock, and he couldn't help but take in a shaky breath as his brain processed the fearful sight before him.
Gozaburo Kaiba. In the flesh.
He took a step into the room, his hands poised neatly behind his back, and out of both fear and instinct, Seto took a step back. "Hello brat." He greeted his stepson coldly.
Seto swallowed over the lump in his throat. "Y-you're dead." He whispered shakily while eyeing the very real looking elder Kaiba in front of him.
He simply ignored his little accusation as he started to throw a few of his own around. "You can never do anything right can you, brat?" He demanded harshly, watching in pleasure as his adoptive son cringed out of habit.
"My company is left to you to run and not only are you slacking, but you're chasing around sluts as well!!" He shouted out angrily as a vein started to pop out of his forehead.
That got Seto's attention faster than any slap or punch in the face ever could. "Slacking!?!? I work my ass off to make sure that this company stays number one!! I have no life and hardly any free time at all because of it!! And it's doing ten times better with me then it ever did when you were around so you can go and fuck yourself!!" He shouted in a rage. He was not a child anymore and he wanted to make sure that the old man knew it.
Now don't get me wrong or anything, of course what the elder Kaiba said about Jou was a major factor in his little outburst as well, but before he could even mention it the back of Gozaburo's hand swiftly met his face, shutting him up instantly. Old habits do die hard after all.
"So this is the brat you're after is it?" He said while looking in the direction of Seto's desk.
His eyes widened and he quickly whipped around in confusion of what he'd just heard. Jou was gone! How could he be back?
What he saw in the far corner behind the desk nearly floored him. Katsuya was just sitting there, his knees drawn up to his chest and he was shaking like a leaf. Large and ugly looking bruises covered his face as well as his hands as he mumbled something to himself that he couldn't quite hear.
"Pathetic." Gozaburo spat with disgust.
"Katsuya?" Seto called out lightly as he then tried to make his way over to the blonde. But a large hand on his shoulder forcefully stopped him.
"What the hell are you doing?!?" The angry CEO shouted at his smirking stepfather. He simply motioned for him to watch the unfolding scene.
"Tell me if this reminds you of anything." He said while tightening his grip on the teens shoulder.
Seto held back a wince of pain at the act as he slowly returned his gaze to the sight before him. Another person suddenly appeared in the room from seemingly nowhere, and his eyes widened as he immediately knew who it was. He wasn't mangled and covered in blood from the car wreck this time, but he instantly knew that this was
Jou's father.
The older man placed a hand on the boy's head, causing him to shake all the harder at the contact before grabbing a fistful of his golden hair, ignoring the cry of pain that he gave off as he lifted him into the air, and swiftly punched him in the face.
Jou had tears running down his face as he tried to keep his father's fists at bay and get back down to the floor at the same time. "Dad, stop it!"
"Katsuya!" Seto cried out before trying to run over and help him, but Gozaburo pulled him back before quickly punching him in the stomach, stunning him as he fell to the floor. Coughing roughly and trying to take in some much needed air.
"You always were weak. Why I ever took in such trash is beyond me!" He spat before fiercely kicking his side, liking the groan of pain that escaped his lips.
He tried to ignore the pain he felt shooting through his chest as he glanced back at where his puppy was, also on the ground and trying without too much luck to shield his face from the blows he was getting. His father then got a lust filled look in his eye while doing this, that made Seto's blood boil. But he couldn't go over to try and help because he couldn't move.
The elder Kaiba then got down on his knees to whisper something in his ear. "If you care so much about that filth, then why didn't you do anything about this?"
"SHUT UP!!!"
Seto woke up with a jumping start, still in bed and covered with a layer of sweat. Breathing as if he'd just ran ten miles non-stop.
He quickly looked around the dark room he was in, as if trying to make himself believe that it was nothing more than a nightmare, even though the better part of his mind knew that, that's all it really was.
Once he was fully awake and convinced that nothing had happened he let out a sigh of relief before falling back and laying on his many soft pillows.
"What the fuck was that?" He asked himself out loud.
It was so strange. Whenever he has dreams starting off with kissing his blonde it usually ends with hot sex and him waking up with a raging erection the next morning. This time however was both different and scary.
This time the dream involved not only seeing the abuse that Katsuya was given by his father, but also reliving the abuse that he'd taken. What scared him the most was the look of lust in the older man's eyes when he was on top of his son. Even *he* didn't get abused that badly!
`It was just a dream. Nothing more. If something like that had happened to the puppy then the doctors would have known about it and told you. They had *better* have told you!' He inwardly shouted at himself to make his fears disappear.
But the fears remained. What Gozaburo had said to him before he'd woken up really did something to him. Why didn't he try to help the blonde? Everyone but his idiot friends knew about what was happening and no one did a thing about it. Not even him, who knew first hand what it was like to live like that.
"Fucking bastard!" He cursed lowly with his stepfather in mind. `He wouldn't have let me help him anyway. The doctors said it themselves, he always lied to cover it up.'
`Hn. Whatever, you just keep telling yourself that. You were afraid!' His subconscious sneered.
"Fuck." He cursed again, realising he'd caught himself in a lie, while sitting up and throwing his blankets off of himself to get up. It was two-thirty in the morning, but he needed to think about this, and the one thing that helped him think was a nice long walk.
He walked across the room fast enough because his eyes were used to the dim light, but he didn't expect to see the bright lights on in the hall when he opened the door, making him squint his eyes. Or Jou for that matter. He was only wearing a pair of pyjama pants and his fist was raised slightly as if he was about to knock, but he quickly put it down at the sight of his squinting employer.
"Katsuya? What are you doing here?" He asked while trying to adjust his eyes to the light.
The blonde shifted his feet a little and looked down as if trying to hide something. "Um. I just wanted to apologise for what I did earlier." He said obviously lying.
"At two-thirty in the morning?" Seto asked skeptically while leaning on the door frame. "Why are you really here, mutt?" He demanded casually.
Jou bristled and made an annoyed face at the insult. "I'm not a dog, Kaiba." He said hotly.
*That* caught his attention rather quickly. "Did you just call me Kaiba?" He asked in slight amazement. What ever happened to Seto? He liked it when he and his puppy were on a first name basis so what was with the sudden change?
Katsuya blinked. "Ya. Why? Is something wrong with it?" He asked, truly confused about this.
Seto thought about it for a moment, eyeing his blonde puppy before him as he put two and two together. `He only called me Kaiba back when he hated me. Perhaps he's getting his memories back? Or could it be...'
FLASHBACK
"You're gonna drive him away again, onisan!" Mokuba called as Seto simply gave him a confused look.
'What does he mean drive him away *again*?' He thought to himself in confusion. But before he could even open his mouth to ask about it, Mokuba turned around and darted off to find Katsuya and explain his big brother's strange behaviour, leaving him just standing there.
END FLASHBACK
`No way. Could it really be? It's not his memories but me that causes him to hate me?' He thought in utter bewilderment. Now that he actually stopped to think about it, Katsuya hardly ever was the aggressor between the two of them. He only started to lash out at him when he started to make fun of the little tricolour haired midget. `I've got to put an end to this.'
"Nothing's wrong puppy, and don't call me Kaiba, call me Seto." He almost demanded, not wanting to lose his puppy before he could even have him.
Once again the blonde blinked. "Um. Okay." He agreed simply.
Seto actually smiled when he heard that. Nothing big, and not a smirk either, but a smile. "Now, tell me why you're here." He said while folding his arms, keeping his smile of amusement in place at how the blonde blushed slightly at the question.
"It's stupid really." He admitted while putting a hand behind his head.
"Just tell me already." Seto sighed out, wanting to know what this was all about now that he was up. "If you don't tell me I'll double your work load tomorrow." He threatened playfully while smirking.
Katsuya simply mumbled something that he couldn't quite hear. "What was that?" Seto asked.
"I said I had a nightmare." The blonde confessed, his face turning an even deeper shade of red in his embarrassment.
Now it was Seto's turn to blink. "And what did you want me to do about it?" He asked while still looking at him curiously. Mokuba had, had bad dreams before, and he always knew how to take care of them. But that was different, that was his little brother. What did the puppy want him to do, rock him to sleep too?!?
Katsuya simply gave him an uneasy look while slightly leaning to the side to get a look in his room. The CEO immediately caught on.
"You can't be serious." He exclaimed, his eyes widening at the thought of his blonde puppy in his bed. Not that he would mind of course.
"Please? I don't have to be on the bed I can go on that small couch thing if you want. I just don't want to be alone." He said, his face slightly fallen and using his puppy dog eyes for all they were worth.
Seto gave out a lengthy sigh, knowing that he couldn't say no to those eyes. "Alright, alright. You can sleep in here with me."
"Thanks Seto!" He chirped while running into the room.
"And you can sleep in my bed with me. The divan's too small." Saying as if he really didn't care, Seto closed the door and walked over towards the bed, his heart actually slamming beneath his chest as he went.
Katsuya quickly hopped into bed and beneath the covers, just like a ten year old child would, then waited as patiently as he could for Seto to join him. Trying as hard as he could to not fall asleep yet.
"You'd better not kick me in your sleep puppy." He warned as he climbed in, but considering that the blonde was already half asleep, all he could reply with was a mumbled "Mmmhmm."
The CEO simply shook his head in a fond manner before laying down and pulling the covers over himself. `I guess I don't need my walk now.' He thought to himself as he closed his eyes. But just as he was about to doze off, Katsuya turned around in his sleep and snuggled up to him.
Seto shot his eyes wide open and looked down at the blonde in disbelief. `What the hell is he doing?!'
"Katsuya, are you awake?" He asked........ No answer. Just a light snore.
For a moment he didn't know what to do. So he just layed there, frozen and unmoving while his puppy held onto him.
Eventually though, Seto found his courage and snaked his own arms around his puppy's waist, then sighed in content.
`I'd better not wake up with a hard on because of this, puppy.' He thought to himself before falling asleep along with him.
