I just added an ending to this scene. Well, after the review of mandapandabug I think I need some help for handing the grammar better. Any volunteers?????
But thanks for the reviews so far. It is much harder to write in english instead of just reading it.
In the dark nightmares played with Kaiba's mind. Grotesque figures and obscure sceneries were hunting him in his dreams. Sometimes he couldn't figure out if he was awake or still sleeping. Shadows became alive and something was crawling in the room. He couldn't hear or see it but it was there. The feeling of being trapped took his breath away. The sheets around him tied him to the bed and he was sure something was climbing up the bedposts. He closed the eyes and listened into the dark. From somewhere he could hear the laughter of a child. First it calmed him down but after a while the sound was getting angry. The child was shouting at him and after a while the child started to cry. Kaiba wanted to say something but the child's voice was too loud. And it was getting louder and louder. Kaiba knew he was the reason for the child's anger and fear. And maybe he had to pay now but he couldn't remember what he had done. He wanted to run away but still he was tied to the bed. He struggled for breath but there was no chance to flee. Something was coming nearer. He could hear the breathing of it. And suddenly this something touched his arm. Kaiba opened his eyes and stared into a bunch of colours caused by bright light. The child's voice was gone but he seemed to have left reality. Everything was blurry and this something was still next to him. Kaiba panicked and his only thought was to defend himself.
"Kaiba, you fucking idiot. You son of a rotten bitch! Stop it now! Are you crazy?" Joey slapped Kaiba in his face. Both of them were lying on the ground. Kaiba was sitting on Joey's chest and punched around with his fists. Joey had spent some time in the kitchen when he heard Kaiba screaming. He ran into the room and put the lights on. Kaiba seemed to hallucinate. But when Joey tried to waken him, Kaiba started to attack Joey. One of his fists punched him into the chest and another punch against his leg made Joey loose his balance. His attempt to stay in an upright position by gripping the bed sheets failed and the result was that Kaiba who was wrapped in them fell with him to the floor. Joey's head knocked hard on the floor and his ribs were aching because of Kaiba sitting on him. This was too much. Kaiba was worse than hell. Joey pulled Kaiba from his chess which was easy. After slapped in the face Kaiba seemed to slid back into reality. He was lying on the floor and rubbing his eyes. Joey jumped to his feet and examined his head with one hand. When he was sure he was not bleeding he looked down to Kaiba. His pale face was sweaty and he was clearly confused. "Bad dreams?" Joey bluffed. The pain in his chess was still breathtaking and a few punches from Kaiba had been hard. His anger mirrored in the way he manoeuvred Kaiba back into the bed. Kaiba didn't show any resistance. "Hey, you bastard. Talk to me!", Joey hissed. But Kaiba just stared at the ceiling. Joey sat on the bed and bowed his head over Kaiba's face.
"Something interesting up there? Say something, idiot." Joey's voice was still angry. He grabbed Kaiba at his shoulders and pulled him up. Kaiba was still pale in his face and to move him was like playing with an oversized doll. This nightmare must have exhausted him badly. But Joey didn't feel sorry. He had shown more mercy than a bloody Samaritan and now he felt like being hit by a car.
Slowly Kaiba realised that his dreams were over. His mind cleared and he saw Joey's face next to his. He even could feel his breath. "Joey?", he asked just to make sure he was really awake. "Of course I am Joey. You had a nightmare and nearly knocked me out when I tried to wake you." Kaiba leaned against the bed's head and looked at Joey. He looked messy. His hair was falling into his face and his clothes were deranged. "Sorry, you didn't deserve this", he murmured. Bewildered Joey replied "Doesn't matter." Somehow Kaiba's excuse shocked Joey and he examined Kaiba's temperature. He expected high fever but on the contrary the thermometer showed a nearly normal level of degrees. Joey's anger turned into pity when he watched the confused figure on the bed. Kaiba still shivered and reminded more a little child which was frightened than a recovered patient. Joey put a blanket around his shoulders an wrapped him into it. "You should sleep a bit. The nightmare won't come back and tomorrow you feel much better. Maybe you can even go home. "Kaiba lift a hand and stroke some hair out of Joey's face. "I heard a child cry. It was my fault but I don't know the reason", he whispered. Kaiba felt no need to hide this. He just wanted to tell. "It shouted at me but the words were like a foreign language. Maybe I did something bad to it." "It was just a dream. You shouldn't care to much about it. It frightened you which is understandable. But now it is too late to analyse a feverish vision. You need some rest." Joey put Kaiba's hand and squeezed it. Their eyes met and Joey saw that Kaiba was still restless. "Are you afraid of being lonely now?" he asked and Kaiba nodded. This was all freaky both of them thought but the circumstances seemed to have blurred the lines of their normal behaviour. Joey stood up and turned out the lights. Then he laid next to Kaiba and took him into his arms. "Your nightmare won't come back. I will guard your sleep. You don't have to worry about anything." Kaiba enjoyed the comfort of these words although he couldn't really believe what was happening. He was laying in Joey's arms? But he was too tired to care.
