Today is Seto's birthday! October 25th, folks, Seto Kaiba's birthday!!!

So, I have decided to write him a special birthday one-shot!

...if I can find a plot...

Hmm... I could just randomly write and see what I get.

That'll do.

...I wrote that all two days ago. Maybe I can actually get the story done this time?


Seto's Birthday Wish

The moment his silver alarm clock belted out the tune of "Happy Birthday" at 4 AM, Seto Kaiba knew – Mokuba had been messing with the settings of his alarm clock, first of all. He mumbled to himself as he crawled to the edge of his big bed and slipped onto the floor on his stomach – his favorite way to get out of bed. A groaning came from behind him and he realized he had forgotten his blonde mutt.

"Setooooo?" aforementioned blonde puppy called groggily. "It's too earrrrly..."

Seto got up and smiled at the boy curled up in the burgundy sheets. The mop of blonde hair was even messier than usual due to his constant moving when he slept, and his eyes were trying to pry themselves open, snapping shut each time.

Jou finally managed to keep his eyes open and he looked up at Seto.

"What's wrong?"

Seto frowned.

"Nothing is wrong, puppy, what makes you think that?" he asked.

"...yer smilin'," Jou responded, grinning.

The CEO grabbed a pillow and threw it at Jou, hitting him dead in the face.

"Don't tell anyone I did that. Our secret, okay?"

Jou nodded as he slipped out of the bed and put on his green bathrobe.

"You want the shower first today, Seto?" he asked sweetly.

"Yes, of course. Don't I always get it first?" the CEO teased.

Jou grinned and walked out to start making breakfast. Seto did not follow, instead decided to take his shower now... and purposely use all the hot water for Jou...and the Roman people.


"And the Roman people" was an extra created when I was sending bits of the story to my friend Arthur. He was talking about Rome and I sent the little paragraph just before he said "...and the Roman people..." so I thought I'd include his happy little contribution!
Jou set about making the fun-ness of pancakes! He grabbed a turkey baster and made the shape of a Blue-Eyes White Dragon with the batter. Then he filled it in carefully and waited for Seto to finish his shower...

---Meanwhile---

"YOWCH!" Seto yelped as he turned the water on too hot.

---Later...---

"AAAAAGH!" Seto shouted again, this time too cold.

---Later...---

Seto trudged to the kitchen with one scalded foot and the other slightly numb. He had tried to use all the hot water but he doubted he actually had... Mokuba could do the honors if he managed to shower before Jou.

Jou flopped the Blue-Eyes pancake onto Seto's plate, grinning from ear to ear as the brunet raised a sharp eyebrow at it.


Yes, I said "brunet" because "brunette" isn't right, I looked it up and the definition is "A girl or woman with dark brown hair!" "Brunet" is "A person with dark brown hair."
"Happy birt'day, sweetheaht," Jou said, pushing Seto into a comfy chair at the table.

Jou made more pancakes in varying Duel Monsters forms. He giggled insanely when Seto began stabbing the Kuriboh pancake with his knife. Mokuba laughed when Jou attempted to convince Seto to eat a very nicely made Exodia pancake, too...

Throughout breakfast, Mokuba suggested several times that Seto and Jou duel with the pancakes, but Seto simply twitched an eyebrow and Jou shrugged.

When they had all finished, Jou cleaned up and ran to the shower before Mokuba could. Seto checked the time – 5:30 AM. They had two and a half more hours before school began... he'd have to ask Jou about his birthday wish soon.


OK, I lied. Not a oneshot. Sucks, ne? I'll get the next chapter up soon. I have the plot ready. You'll all like it... it involves Jou being a bit.. EVIL!

Okies, reviews make me wanna update sooner, really! Review!!!
