In Response: I'm sorry I can't spell, I blame the Indiana Educational system, I try to always run spell check, but it doesn't even work sometimes. I love to write dialog, but I hate descriptions, and I like to leave room for my readers to assume things like who is speaking, I always like to keep my readers on there toes. And no, I don't have these things done already, I just will sit down and in like 15 minuets or so, have one and then post them up. And I have a laptop, so its like I've been doing it everywhere. I wont be able to post all next week though, computer has to go with my dad to New York. I'm glad you all like the story, I was afraid that people won't get it. I tend to write a little too Physiologic. So I'm really glad you enjoy it! Oh I don't know how much longer I can keep this up, I'm running out of story ideas, I have like 4 left. So if any of you have any ideas, let me know, that would be awesome. :-P
I need to go see Seto. I like having Zinan here, but I need some alone time with my big brother. After all it's Christmas. He's alone in the living room, staring at the tree.
"Don't you have work to do in the morning?"
"I think I'll stay home."
"Wow, This is the first time you haven't worked on Christmas since, I don't know when."
"I know, but I just don't want to. Come Sit." We've always had nice furniture at our mansions, big cozy leather couches and chairs, they are nice to sit in. "I was just thinking about something."
"What?"
"Us."
"Us?"
"Yea, I mean look at us. Look how far we have come."
"Its all thanks to you. If you wont have won that chess game, god only knows where we would be right now." I had thought about that from time to time. What would have happened to us had we not been adopted. He and I would have been plugged into Foster Homes, different foster homes. That made my skin craw. Knowing that maybe, we would have been separated. I would be on my own. Not Seto and Mokuba, but just Seto and Just Mokuba.
"It scares me to think that we were so close to being separated, and I tried everything to make that not happen. And now look at us. Pretty incredible isn't it?" I nodded. Seto is one in a million, and I like to think that I am as well, so what are the chances of us being brothers? I took off my locket, it was falling apart, the picture on the inside was all warn away, but I would not trade this thing for the world. He took his off, his is in a little better shape, he uses it for like keys and stuff at the company, so he had to keep it. We opened them, I held mine up to his face. He looked so different. His eyes look so big, and the rest of his body is so small, and the sweater vest, wow, nice Seto. He held his up to me. He laughed.
"What?"
"Your head it like huge, how did it stay on your body like that? And crap, look at those ears!"
"Shut up." We place them side-by-side. "God we were cute kids."
"I know what happened."
"Seto, I have a confession to make."
"What?"
"When I was little, I didn't think that we looked that much alike."
"We didn't then, no. But now, that were both in the same age category, I think we do." I'm bigger than he is, I'm taller and better built. But I do think we look alike now.
"I was worried there for a while."
"Huh?"
"We studied genetics in school and I was worried there for a while that we weren't really brothers, like blood brothers."
"Would it matter if we really weren't?"
"No." Seto is my brother, and I could care less if we were related by blood or not, he's the only family I have. He was looking at the tree again.
"I love Christmas Time."
"So do I. I love you Seto."
"I know." He's cool like that.
