Seto's POV
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I was staring out of the wide windows of my office, looking out to the grayish blue skies that were threatening rain. I sighed as I ran a hand through my brown locks, still mentally debating my decision.
Was it the right thing to do?
Was it the best thing to do?
Was it what I was supposed to do?
How about J-
I was startled out of my thoughts as I heard a knock at my door. I chose to ignore it and instead focus on more important things… like Ryou…
Ryou…
"Oni-chan!"
How long do I have to wait for you my love?
"…"
Bakura…
"ONI-CHAN!"
This is his entire fault! I silently screamed as I clenched my hands, thinking about the white- haired spirit that once resided inside the Sennen Ring. That bastard! If he really loves Ryou, then why did he hurt him?
"…"
Naze! I really do love Ryou… about as much as I loved J-
"SETO ONI-CHAN!" I was jerked out of my thoughts as Mokuba suddenly jumped on my lap. I stared at him; already my anger was building up. Why did my little brother always enter when I'm in a bad mood?
"What!" I snapped at him, annoyed that he caught me unaware. He just looked at me with those wide, innocent, puppy-dog eyes… argh… already my building up anger was cooling down… very fast.
"What are you thinking about?" he purposely used those eyes on me, widening them very innocently. I can already tell that he wants something from me… or from the mall…
"It's none of your business, Mokuba," I slowly get the words out, fearful that my clever little brother might use that to his advantage… yes, The Seto Kaiba is afraid of his younger brother… and those dreaded chibi- eyes of his.
"Ryou… or him?" he whispered the last part, his expressions going from bubbly to dreadful. My eyes soften at that… Mokuba suffered from that too, eh? I guess Serenity didn't want anything to do with him after…
"I said it's none of business your squirt," I playfully scold him as I pick him up and set him on the other chair in front of my mahogany desk. "Now go before I-"
"Nee-chan… it's my business too…"
"Anou… I -…Shizuka… she broke up with me because of it you know…"
"I guess all I can say is sorry Mokuba… I didn't mean for you to-"
"Seto, it's okay. Besides, you are more important to me than anyone else… but that's not the point right now…" he looked at me uneasily.
"And can you tell me how in all the earth is that?" I raised my eyebrows at him as I noticed he was fidgeting… a lot.
I frowned at my little brother's antics.
Nothing ever made Mokuba this uneasy.
Nothing…
Nothing except…
Him…
"Mokie…"
"Nee-chan, he's here and he wants to see you…" he looked down, suddenly finding my Persian rug very interesting. I glare daggers at the door, as if blaming it for the sudden change of atmosphere.
"Nee-chan, he- he's not going to leave if you don't talk to him," Mokuba whispered from his seat. My glare increased tenfold.
"Seto! Lemme in, I know ya're in der' (1)," came the slightly muffled voice from outside the room.
If looks could kill, my door would have been six feet under by now.
"OI! Kaiba! Lemme in, we need ta talk!"
Forget six feet under; it would have been burning in hell right now…
"Go ahead, Mokuba," I quietly ordered my brother as I nudge him towards the other door at the other end of the room.
"Nee- chan?" he looked at me with those wide fearful eyes…
"I'll take care of him on my own…" I assured him as I pushed him farther towards the door. "Go…"
"Demo, Seto… I don't-"
"Open the fucking door, Kaiba! Damn it!"
"He's drunk! He's gonna get brutal-"
"The more reason for you to leave the two of us alone," I cut him, silencing him with one of my cold clammy hands.
"But Seto! I can't leave you alone with him… he might hurt you!" Mokuba desperately tried to change my mind with those eyes…
"It won't work Mokuba… I can take care of myself…" I say as I hug (2) him, pushing him to the other door. He looked up at me and I could see the fire in his eyes.
"If he hurts you in anyway… I swear I would hunt him down and personally slaughter him! "
I smirked weakly at my brother.
I guess I just didn't have all the strength I used to have… or the amount I needed to face him…
"Yeah, sure," I said as I close the door and locked it. One problem down…
"Kaiba! Open the damned door already!"
One more to go…
