Silent Tears Chapter 11: ~To Love Someone~
The three boys sat silently, as the limo drove past several houses on its way to the Kaiba Mansion. The deathly silence was enough to make anyone piss there pants.
Joey fiddled with his thumbs nervously, to say he was nervous and scared at the least, would be understatement. Joey was beyond frightened at the moment. Here he was sitting in the presence of none other than his arch rival and he couldn't have felt more insignificant and small, even if he tried.
Seto had his eyes locked on the window. He stared at the houses as they passed by, refusing to look at the gorgeous honey-eyed blond sitting a seat away. Why did Mokuba have to have homework in the first place? Seto grumbled, and clenched his teeth.
As the limo pulled up in the CEO's driveway, the three boys piled out, Kaiba's eyes held there dull emotionless attitude, as he strolled casually into his home. Mokuba skipped cheerfully behind his big brother, as Joey took a deep breath and followed the younger Kaiba.
As Joey stood on the porch gazing into the house, his mouth fell open. He knew he was in a mansion, but it was amazing. Floors were tiled and shined, the banister curled into a grand staircase. The house was simply dazzling to say the least.
The Kaiba brothers handed there coats to the maid, and made their way to the living room, as Joey just stood there outside, mouth still ajar, taking in his surroundings. He looked like a gawking pigeon in Kaiba's perspective, but who was he to judge? Oh right, Joey's future master, if he had anything to say about it.
"Hey puppy, are you going to come in, or just stand there like a donkey. And close your mouth will you, you wouldn't wanna swallow a fly now would you?" Kaiba snickered.
Joey shut his mouth, and blushed. He wasn't staring that much was he? He smacked himself mentally for acting like such an idiot. The blond stepped slowly into the house, slipping his shoes off outside the front door, as so not to mess up the already neat and tidy mansion. If Joey could help it, he was going to darn well prove he was not a dog, even if it killed him.
Mokuba, who was grinning evilly, watching Joey as he blushed non-stop, /this is going to be so much fun!/ He quietly crept up the stairs claiming he had to get his homework, and that he'd be down shortly.
Mokuba ran upstairs into his room, and threw himself on the bed, burying his face in a pillow, to stop him from laughing out loud. This plan was ingenious; there would be no way his brother could get away from this. As soon as the younger controlled himself, and his laughter died down he picked up the phone and dialed Trinity's number.
Someone picked up the phone and answered, "Hello?"
Mokuba blushed slightly, "Hi is this Trinity?"
"Huh? Oh hey Mokuba, ya this is Trinity, how are things going so far?"
"Perfect, I left those two downstairs to get my homework, and trust me there is no way in Hell my brother would leave Joey alone, especially in this house."
"So, I take it that you've got the whole thing planned out?" Trinity inquired.
"Yup, I'll get down there eventually, play a c.d. improvise, the usual."
"Cool well I gotta bounce, call me up, and let me know how things go."
"Aite later sis, talk to ya soon Ja ne!" Mokuba hung up the phone as he searched for his c.d. which had the perfect song on it. As soon as he found it, he grabbed his already finished homework, erased some answers and headed downstairs.
As the little one walked over to the living room, he quickly hid the smirk he had on his face, and just like he had suspected, his brother and Joey were sitting therein silence waiting for him to come back. /Good, old ni- sama doesn't trust anyone alone in this house! /
Seto watched his little brother walk in the room, and he got up to leave, as he passed by Mokuba and whispered something in his ear. Mokuba shrugged, and ignored him, then walked over to the couch were Joey was waiting ever so patiently.
"Hey, Mokuba, what's a smart kid like yaself askin' a dope like me for help wit homework?"
Mokuba's eyes glistened mysteriously, "gee......... Joey don't you wanna help me?"
"Ahh......... ya sure what are we doin' exactly?" In reality Joey didn't really wanna help Mokuba, he just wanted to see Kaiba, damn hormones, were getting to him.
"Math." Mokuba stated flatly, knowing full and well what the blond was thinking about.
"Oh right math, that's the thing with the numbers and the signs and all that right." Joey asked looking around for where Kaiba might've gone, not paying any attention what so ever to the little one standing in front of him. (A/n: I'm not trying to make him a ditz, just he's looking for the love of his life, don't freak out k?)
"Ya, that's right, alright first question. This one stumped me big time."
"Cool, shoot."
"Alright, what's 7 to the power of 2, multiplied by 6, divided by 4, plus 26.5, square-rooted?"
Joey's eyes widened considerably, "Umm......... hold on." He started counting on his hands, and then he eventually found himself sitting on the floor, socks off counting with his fingers and toes. After about what seemed like forever to Mokuba, Joey finally stood up and proudly held up his 2 hands. "Your answer is 10."
This time it was Mokuba's turn to be shocked, he was right! But just to go along with his original plan, he had to call Kaiba, for the thrill of it all. "BIG BROTHER, CAN YOU COME DOWN HERE A SEC."
In as little as a shake of a tail, Seto was down in the room, panting for breath. "Did this mongrel hurt you, because I swear if he did I'll.........?"
"Onii-chan, Joey didn't do anything, I just needed your help, I wanted to make sure Joey was right."
Seto glared at Joey, and looked over at Mokuba, who in return shrugged and recited the question for his brother. As soon as Mokuba finished asking his question, Seto called out the answer as ten, the same thing as Joey.
Joey just smirked triumphantly, "And you thought I was stupid."
The CEO muttered, "You are stupid mutt, exactly how long did it take you to figure that problem out? You're just as idiotic as ever."
Joey tried to hold in his emotions, which were threatening to overflow. /Why did I have to be so sensitive to his cruel words? Why couldn't he just see that all I wanted to do was love him? /
He decided to be strong and push back my feelings of worthlessness, and replied back, "Listen, you rich, snob, just because the whole world isn't as smart as you it doesn't mean that you have to make us feel so inferior."
"Gee......... pup, I didn't know you knew such big words, have you been reading the dictionary lately?"
Joey and Kaiba continued to hurl insults at one another, not even stopping to consider the fact that they were practically screaming on the top of their lungs.
Mokuba sighed, "This is harder then I ever thought, what am I going to do?"
As if answering his call of distress the phone rang, causing the three boys to jump, Mokuba gladly ran into the kitchen to pick it up. "Hello, Kaiba residence, how may I help you?"
The younger Kaiba heard laughing on the other end of the phone, "Hey Mokuba, having fun are we?"
Mokuba sighed once again, "NANI!? Iie, things are getting progressively worse over here what should I do?"
Trinity giggled again, "calm down little one, follow your plan, put on the music, and allow things to pick up from there."
"Arigatou, Trinity, how do you do it?"
"It's a gift, I guess, so what else is new?"
Mokuba was about to answer as he heard something like glass shattering, "Kuso, umm.........Trin' I'll call you back, I think they might've broken something. Ja ne." He hung up the phone on the receiver and ran into the living room where the two boys were previously arguing.
The smaller, looked in the room and took in the scene. Seto was extremely peeved off and shooting nasty looks at Joey. And as for the golden haired teen he was scared out of his wits. He wasn't exactly sure what happened all he heard was a glass shatter, and the lights flick off, next thing he knew Seto was shooting him evil death glares more depraved then usual.
Mokuba sensing the emotional tension in the room, quickly grabbed his c.d. and slammed into the c.d. player, as he skipped to the right track, hoping that maybe it might lighten the moment, and ease up the current atmosphere. Then as quickly as he snuck in the room he was gone, allowing the music to fill the room and hopefully if his plan worked, bring out some well needed positive feelings between the two opposite teens.
~Don't hold back
The way you really feel
What you don't say
You know your eyes reveal
I'm knockin' at your door
So open up your heart
You know I'm what you really want
So what you waitin' for?~
Seto and Joey listened as the music played softly. Joey closed his eyes as he listened to the lyrics flow. It was almost as if this song were made perfectly to describe his feeling for the brunette who stood proudly, just inches away from him.
~Keepin' it all inside
When it should be you and I
What's the point of keepin' it to yourself? ~
Kaiba's brows furrowed, as he caught on to the lyrics. Why was this song on, he hadn't requested anyone to play such madness, music was a waste of time as far as he was concerned, he only bought c.d.'s for Mokuba's sake. Yet, the words that were induced in the song were captivating, and meaningful.
~If you're savin' for a rainy day
Then let me be the rain
If you're lookin' for a love that's true
Then baby look my way
If you're hopin' for a miracle
Then I can be your wish
If you're savin' for a rainy day
Then baby here it is~
The two boys refused to make eye contact as the song continued to filter its way through the room, lyrics unconsciously haunting the minds of the occupants of the den.
~But there you are
Standin' by yourself
Too shy to ask
But you know I can tell
That what you really, really,
really, really need
Is what I really got to give
But baby you will never know
Until you let me hear~
Standing further apart, Seto starred at the floor, eyes wide, trying to block out the words, trying hard not to give in and run over to the blond honey, standing there, watching him intently. Joey had his eyes fixed on the cerulean eyed boy that plagued his dreams each night. He wanted so badly to build up enough courage to tell him how he felt inside, but there was no way he could ever stand a chance, with the boy he so lovingly adored.
~Keepin' it all inside
when it should be you and I
what's the point of keepin' it to yourself? ~
~If you're savin' for a rainy day
Then let me be the rain
If you're lookin' for a love that's true
Then baby look my way
If you're hopin' for a miracle
Then I can be your wish
If you're savin' for a rainy day
Then baby here it is~
~So close to paradise
It's right outside your door
Close enough for you to touch
I'm everything that you've been waiting for~
By now, Joey was close to tears, and Seto was trying to deal with the emotions that loomed over him. Both boys yearned for each other's warm embrace, but it all seemed so unrealistic, so they lived in their fantasies, hoping that one day it would become a reality. But they were so close, right there, why did it have to be so hard?
~If you're savin' for a rainy day
Then let me be the rain
If you're lookin' for a love that's true
Then baby look my way
If you're hopin' for a miracle
Then I can be your wish
If you're savin' for a rainy day
Then baby here it is~
~If you're savin' for a rainy day
If you're savin' for a rainy day
If you're savin' for a rainy day~
As the song came to an end, Joey and Kaiba's eyes were locked with one another. Joey's eyes were brimmed with tears, that he refused to shed in front of the CEO, but still they fell. They fell like the rain, one after another finding their way down the blonds beautiful face.
Seto watched as his secret crush cried, it made his heart ache, he hated to see his love hurt like this, but......... what was he to do? He wished more then anything that he could just kiss away his beloved angels' tears away.
Unconsciously, Kaiba in the heat of the moment walked over to the angelic boy standing in front of him, and wrapped his arms around him, brushing his tears away with the palm of his hand, and rubbing his back with the other hand.
Joey's eyes were wide, here he was in the arms of his secret crush and he was brushing away his tears. What did this all mean? "K.........Kaiba?"
Seto pulled himself away from the teen, and looked him sincerely in the eye, "What is it mutt?"
Joey looked hopefully, almost pleadingly into Kaiba's cerulean eyes. "D.........Does this mean you.........feel........."
Before Joey could finish his sentence, Kaiba withdrew himself completely from the blond, and blinked, at the realization of his current predicament. He just stood there silently, wishing now, that this were all a dream and that he'd wake up any minute.
Joey watched him carefully, his eyes still holding a spark of curiosity, and need, for the boy he fell so deeply in love with. But as time stood still, the air grew tense, in the awe silence the room held, neither inhabitant daring to speak.
Seto's eyes still held their usual coldness, but mixed in was a rare sort of confusion, and uncertainty. What did he feel for the blond, was it truly love, or was the loneliness he had locked away for so long, that made him feel this way towards the teen? He opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't yet trust his voice to say a word, for he was afraid of the things that may spill out. He had spent so many years creating a stone wall, blocking out everyone and anyone who dared to come close, and he wasn't just about to lose that.
Joey continued to stare hopefully, awaiting an answer, the answer that he had dreamed about for so long. Yet, as the older teen still stood, unwilling to move, the blond couldn't help but feel the tears forming in hey honey eyes. He moved towards Seto, in a desperate attempt to get closer to the boy, but instead the brunet moved further away, causing Joey's worst nightmare to become reality.
This time, Joey let his tears; once again, fall freely, down his perfect face. The emotions were just too much to deal with. Slowly as his world felt like it were falling apart, just like his heart, he backed away and fled the room, as he found the front door and ran out in to the coldness of the night, without a second thought.
Seto still stood there, never once taking his mind off of the realness of what had just happened. Everything he once knew, everything he once believed in, no longer made any sense. How did Joey really feel about him?
Slowly, Kaiba regained his composure and trudged up the stairs, in despair, not yet full comprehending the hurt he had caused the other teen emotionally. As he made his way to his room, he quietly shut the door behind him, as he fell against his feathery, soft bed. His eyes fluttered shut, as his mind wandered to the incident that had just briefly occurred. He couldn't get his mind off of the blond haired boy, who achieved the unachievable; managed the impossible, the only person to ever win the heart of the CEO himself......... Joey Wheeler.

Seto's eyes still held their usual coldness, but mixed in was a rare sort of confusion, and uncertainty. What did he feel for the blond, was it truly love, or was the loneliness he had locked away for so long, that made him feel this way towards the teen? He opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't yet trust his voice to say a word, for he was afraid of the things that may spill out. He had spent so many years creating a stone wall, blocking out everyone and anyone who dared to come close, and he wasn't just about to lose that.
Joey continued to stare hopefully, awaiting an answer, the answer that he had dreamed about for so long. Yet, as the older teen still stood, unwilling to move, the blond couldn't help but feel the tears forming in hey honey eyes. He moved towards Seto, in a desperate attempt to get closer to the boy, but instead the brunet moved further away, causing Joey's worst nightmare to become reality.
This time, Joey let his tears; once again, fall freely, down his perfect face. The emotions were just too much to deal with. Slowly as his world felt like it were falling apart, just like his heart, he backed away and fled the room, as he found the front door and ran out in to the coldness of the night, without a second thought.
Seto still stood there, never once taking his mind off of the realness of what had just happened. Everything he once knew, everything he once believed in, no longer made any sense. How did Joey really feel about him?
Slowly, Kaiba regained his composure and trudged up the stairs, in despair, not yet full comprehending the hurt he had caused the other teen emotionally. As he made his way to his room, he quietly shut the door behind him, as he fell against his feathery, soft bed. His eyes fluttered shut, as his mind wandered to the incident that had just briefly occurred. He couldn't get his mind off of the blond haired boy, who achieved the unachievable; managed the impossible, the only person to ever win the heart of the CEO himself......... Joey Wheeler.
