(A/N I reposted the last chapter; no major changes, but I corrected some mistakes and stuff.)
Chapter 5- Double Detention & Dares: Part 2
Joey's eyes were still locked onto Kaiba's. Kaiba opened his mouth to say something but,
*Door opening* "I left some papers in here so I came..." The Prune never finished her statement as she looked and saw Joey and Kaiba on the floor with their faces flushed and them breathing hard. They both looked up in horror and wondered what she was thinking.
"You two have been fighting?!" The two were relieved that she hadn't been thinking something else that would have been really weird. The relief was apparently expressed on their faces and she took it as them saying 'yeah, so what?'
Her face went red with rage as she tried to decide what to say next. She just stood there and glared at the two boys.
They were both just about to say that they weren't fighting, but they knew she wouldn't believe them and she especially wouldn't believe the truth. I mean come on. Would you believe that the two people that hated eachother most would be laughing like that together?
She finally decided on something. "Okay, so you two were fighting. I'm just not going to do anything right now. I'm not going to lengthen your detentions because I couldn't stand you two being here any longer than you already will be."
"Likewise," both boys muttered under their breath in unison.
"I'm just going to get my papers, and go back to the teacher's lounge and pretend that you two weren't fighting. I won't even say it in the phone call I will be making in a couple of hours to your father, Joseph." Joey just looked at her with an emotion beyond loathing. "I will, however do that if I come back later and find you two fighting again. Then I will get you two suspended. But not now. You're just lucky that I need to get so much work done or else you would be in so much trouble..." She trailed off.
With that, she collected some papers from her desk and stormed out by slamming the door without a glance back and headed towards the teacher's lounge. Both Joey and Kaiba just stayed down on the ground long after the Prune left, just staring at the door.
Kaiba was the first to come to his senses. He got up and stood there for a second. He hesitated before he offered his hand to Joey. Joey, still dazed, took a moment to realize that there was a hand in his face. He looked up at Seto who raised an eyebrow at him. Joe finally took his hand and Kaiba pulled Joey up quickly with amazing strength.
Kaiba's POV
'Does he eat at all? He's so light. He's too big to only weigh that much. Is it his father...?'
Joey's POV
'Man, he was able to pull me up that easily? I mean, I don't weigh that much, but he has to have some serious muscle. I guess you'd expect that from him.'
Normal POV
Joey saw Kaiba look strangely at him as Kaiba pulled him up. Then Kaiba didn't let go.
"Somethin' the matter?" Joey asked. Kaiba was still holding the hand he pulled Joey up by.
Kaiba was still lost in thought, oblivious to the world around him, and even more oblivious to the fact that he was still holding Joey's hand and that Joey was talking to him.
"Hello?" Joey was becoming more desperate because he was losing circulation in his hand. His hand was throbbing and he was feeling in his hand.
Kaiba finally snapped back to reality and realized with horror that he was still holding Joey's hand. He jerked back his hand without releasing Joey's, causing Joey to yelp out in pain and to fall on Kaiba. Joey hand was riddled with pain.
He was pressed flat against Kaiba and had his face buried in his chest. He could smell a faint scent of spearmint or something. He tried to back off of Kaiba, but lost his balance in the process and fell. [Man, all that had to be weird.]
Kaiba reached out and caught Joey by his upperarm, which had been brutally injured that morning by his father. He hissed in pain and Kaiba released in grip at seeing the look of intense pain on Joey's face. Joey fell to the floor and landed on his wrist that Kaiba had accidentally yanked and had maybe sprained. He gasped in pain and gritted his teeth and just laid on his back, fighting back any moans or any other verbal signs of pain, like he was used to doing while being around his father.
Kaiba sat down next to Joey with a never-before-seen look of concern on his face.
Kaiba began, "I don't know what I was doing. I was just thinking something, I didn't mean to...hold your hand or yank it. I'm sorry." He said this all very quickly, still kind of flustered. That was the first apology he ever gave to anyone besides his brother. It felt weird.
Joey just nodded with his eyes shut; he didn't trust himself to open his mouth.
Kaiba reached out his hand and moved it towards Joey's arm where it had apparently hurt Joey. Joey looked up and saw this and jerked back and was rewarded by more spasms of pain.
Joey thought, 'Note to self: NO MORE sudden movements.'
Kaiba hesitated, but said, "Relax Pup, I'm not going to hurt you."
Joey could hear the truth in Kaiba's voice, but said, "You just did."
Kaiba looked like he just got slapped across the face. He actually looked hurt. Joey saw this and immediately felt guilty.
"I'm sorry. I'm just kinda, ya know, in pain at the moment. Since when did you care anyway?" Joey asked quickly. He didn't ask the question scathingly; he was actually curious.
He stuttered, "You-you just kind of reminded me of Mokuba. One time he got hurt and had the same look on his face that you just did." Kaiba had a genuine look of sadness on is face. He then realized who he was actually opening up to and quickly added without thinking, "Plus, I don't want to see my Puppy hurt."
Joey looked at Kaiba and it took him a moment to process what Kaiba had said. 'Did he just call me HIS puppy? This continually gets weirder.'
Joey didn't trust himself to look at Kaiba so he just laid his head back down and shut his eyes.
Kaiba reached again for Joey's arm and this time Joey didn't pull away.
He pulled up the sleeve of Joey's shirt and admired the muscle tone. He couldn't admire much longer as he pulled up the sleeve enough to see the bloody bruise.
It was dark purple with a tinge of green and red and was swelling up Joey's entire upperarm. There was a small but deep cut in the center that looked like it might get infected. The entire bruise was probably spread over a 4- inch diameter and it looked terrible, no, it looked just plain nasty. There was congealed blood surrounding it.
Kaiba looked at Joey, but Joey still had his eyes closed.
"Joey?" Kaiba said softly with a worried/shocked/what the hell tone in his voice.
Joey slowly opened his eyes and met Kaiba's gaze.
"Uhh, it was...a fight. Yeah, a fight. A gang jumped me on the way to school and I didn't have time to clean it up," Joey said weakly.
Kaiba saw right through the lie but still pressed further.
"And you didn't go to the clinic or anything?"Kaiba asked, forcing Joey to keep looking him in the eye.
"I...forgot," Joey said lamely. He really hadn't gone because he didn't want the nurse or anyone to get suspicious; it would just cause Joey more problems.
Kaiba raised an eyebrow.
"You forgot," Kaiba repeated, not believing it for a second.
"Well...yeah." Joey knew it sounded really lame and that Kaiba didn't believe him.
"Hmm." It was all Kaiba said.
Joey tried to sit up but he put pressure on his hurt wrist and nearly passed-out and threw-up from the pain. Kaiba pushed him back down. The push was gentle, but firm, making it obvious that Joey was not to try to get up again.
Kaiba didn't say anything about the bruise as he inspected Joey's wrist.
"I think it's sprained. Sorry," Kaiba said with actual sincerity.
"Let me guess, sometimes you don't know your own strength," Joey said, trying to make light of the situation.
Kaiba responded, "Something like that."
There was a short silence.
"If we go to the Prune and ask if we can get medical stuff, she'll think that I did it to you and we'll both be suspended," Kaiba reasoned.
"It's okay. Honest, it'll feel better in a minute," Joey said, hoping that Kaiba would believe him. He desperately did not want Kaiba to become suspicious because then, Joey's father would just get worse.
"Okay, Pup, whatever you say."
Kaiba took some medical tape from his jacket/trench coat thingy and wrapped Joey's wrist as gently as possible, and, believe me, being gentle does not come naturally to a Kaiba. Mokuba is an exception.
"You keep medical tape in your coat? Isn't that, ya know, weird? Joey asked curiously.
"It's just in case of emergency, pup. Like right now."
"Me being hurt is an emergency? There's something new."
"You need your hand, don't you?" Kaiba asked.
"I suppose so," Joey said.
"Who new Seto Kaiba could actually be gentle? I can see Mokuba be gentle, but just not you. It's kinda weird, " Joey said as Kaiba pulled Joey to his feet with Joey's good wrist.
"What's your point?" Kaiba asked, pulling up two chairs and beckoning Joey to sit in the chair next to him.
As Joey sat, he said, "You and Mokuba are so different. It's sometimes hard to believe that you're brothers."
"I get that a lot. Mostly from your preppy friend, what's-her-name. The one that's always giving friendship speeches and shit like that,"Kaiba responded, not really caring if he was insulting that girl.
"Oh, ya mean Te'a. She's not that bad usually, but once she gets on a friendship rant, she won't shut-up." [Sorry to any Te'a-fans, but I HATE her.]
"Whatever. She's annoying. Can I see your arm again?" Asking Joey in the middle of another conversation put him off-guard.
"Okay, I guess."
Kaiba pulled up Joey's sleeve again and inspected it again.
"The bruise can probably heal okay, but that cut can get really badly infected. I have some cut-cleaning junk, so I can clean it up. Then I can wrap it up until you can really get it taken care of."
"Okay."
Kaiba took some more junk out of his trench coat thingy.
The stuff stung, but at least Joey's arm wouldn't get all nasty-ish.
After Kaiba finished wrapping it up he started to rub Joey's arm.
Joey had to say, "Umm...what are you doing?"
"It's to get the blood circulating better, you perve. The stuff I put on should make it numb so you won't feel it."
"Umm...okay, I guess."
Joey still marveled at how gentle Kaiba was being. Kaiba and gentle didn't seem to belong together.
They were sitting in chairs sitting right next to eachother. Kaiba, a little tired, leaned back in his chair and stretched. He was fully stretched out, and he had to be al least 6'4''.
Kaiba's cobalt eyes were still closed from yawning and hadn't opened yet.
Unexpectedly, the lost sleep from work caught up with Kaiba and he just, like, passed out.
All the pain and confusion had made Joey quite tired so he too fell asleep a few minutes after Kaiba.
