Corporate Troubles

Kawaii Chibi Kitty Angel

Chapter 4: For Safety- You're Fucked.

Seto stared at Jounouchi. Jounouchi stared at Seto.

The blonde's cheeks turned bright pink. "Y- y- you're a GIRL? KAIBA?!"

The newly unveiled Seto Kaiba clapped her hand over the 'puppy's' mouth quickly. "What the hell do you think you're doing? Do yo want everyone to know I'm a girl?! Imagine the paparazzi's delight......." She gave a tiny, groan dropping her hand. Jounouchi only continued staring at the beautiful, blue-eyed brunette, confusion and total shock evident on his features.

"B- but- why?" He asked flabbergastedly. His large amber eyes were as wide as saucers with shock.

Seto rolled her eyes exasperatedly. "Why should I explain my actions to you, Mutt?"

She regretted the words as soon as they left her mouth. Jou snapped out of his shock like someone snapped with a rolled up wet towel.

"HEY! I know your damned secret, remember?" He snapped at her angrily, lips pulled in an animalistic snarl. "I could tell anyone at any time I wanted!"

As the brunette's cobalt eyes took on a slightly crazed gleam, Jou found that Kaiba wasn't the only one regretting their words. Kaiba grabbed his arm with hands like pincers. "That's right! You could tell anyone at any moment!"

Jounouchi looked at her with widening, confused eyes. It wasn't like Kaiba to give up... not now, not ever. So she had to be up to something.

"You live in a tiny apartment with your dad, right?" She asked, cold, calm surface falling into place. It was official- she was up to something.

He nodded a little, cowed by the manic look in those ice chip eyes.

She smirked. "I have a deal for you, Mutt, and you're going to take it, whether you like it, or not."

Jounouchi's eyes widened and then narrowed with rage. "Why should I, Kaiba? What do YOU have to use against me?" He growled.

Seto grabbed him by the bridge of his nose, and pulled his face uncomfortably upwards. "Look, puppy, to make sure that you don't do anything stupid, you're going to come live with ME. Not only will that save you the trouble of paying the toll for the bus everyday, seeing as I'm closer, I'll pay off your father's debts. In return, you don't tell anyone. Got it?" She growled.

Jounouchi yanked away, cheeks colouring. "B-but I have a job downtown- I have t pay my rent-"

"You can find another job in the area, Mutt, or, if you're REALLY lucky, I'll let you babysit Mokuba." She smirked, turning to leave. As she began to stroll away from the flabbergasted boy, she shot a final comment over her shoulder. "Tell your father you're moving in with a friend, and pack your bags. I'll send someone to pick you up at six."

Jounouchi just gaped.

"But how did you KNOW, Ryou?" Bakura asked doggedly, trailing the ivory-haired femme. She rolled her eyes. "You know the guys bathroom?"

"Yeah......"

She grinned. "Earlier this year, I was just coming out of a stall- I mean, it would look weird if I walked into the girls' bathroom, right? So, anyway, just as I'm coming out of the stall, Kaiba comes in, looking really stressed. He slips into the 'Out Of Order' stall, and I hear rustling." Ryou said clearly, for her odd Yami.

He nodded. "Go on?"

"Anyway, I don't want to piss him off, so I stay put, just peeking out of the last stall, and out of the 'Out Of Order' stall comes this beautiful, tall blue-eyed brunette. That's when I knew- I mean, having dressed as a guy nearly all my life, I could easily tell that she was Kaiba. I knew a male Kaiba would never dress as a girl, so she must be a woman." She finished.

Bakura whistled. "Jesus... who would of thought it?"

Ryou cocked her head. "Judging by the rather surprised yell I just heard from the cafeteria, not Jou."

6:05

"Christ- She's going to kill me!" A rather frantic Jounouchi moaned, clutching his meager possessions desperately, and bolting out the main doors of the apartment building.

"You're late, Mutt."

Jounouchi's head snapped up to stare at the chestnut haired 'male' leaning on the hood of a rental, dressed in a baseball hat, a black T-shirt, and casual jeans. Kaiba smirked at him cattishly.

"K- Kaiba?! I thought you said you'd send someone to pick me up..."

She smirked again, a tiny look of sardonic amusement creeping across her lips. "I wanted to make sure you didn't go 'chicken' on me."

He looked down at the rental. What's with the rental, and the clothes? Lowering yourself to out level, Rich-Bo- er... Girl?"

Seto laughed and rolled her eyes, motioning for Jounouchi to climb in. "I don't want to be seen picking up a guy in a bad part of downtown- Do you have any idea how much reporters would squeal over that?" She asked, exasperated at his blatant cluelessness.

'It's actually kinda cute.. his totally blank and innocent approach on life...' Her eyes widened as she realized what had just run through her head. 'NO!'

Jounouchi's voice broke into her- er, rather strange thoughts. "Are you old enough to drive, anway?"

She grinned at him malicously. "No."

His face turned a shade of light grayish-white.

Jounouchi staggered out of the rental behind a calmly walking Seto Kaiba.

"I... am.... NEVER... doing... that.... again..." He gasped, knuckles still white from clinging to the dashboard. Kaiba just smirked a little.

"Leave your stuff, the servants will get it. Oh yes, and try not scare Mokuba with your face?"

Jounouchi bristled as a high voice hailed them excitedly.

"Nee-san! Jounouchi-chan! What are you doing here?"

Mokuba- speak of the devil- came bolting out of the house, black hair bouncing as he ran up and gave his older sister a spine-crushing hug. Her eyes softened, and her lips turned up in a little smile.

"He's staying with us for a while, Mokuba-kun. Try not to kill him, okay, kiddo?"

Mokuba looked from his sister to Jounouchi, and then back to his sister.

"I KNEW YOU TWO WOULD GET TOGETHER SOMEDAY!"

Seto choked with surprise.
