In the morning Mokuba's alarm rang bright and early, it was the first time in a long time that he had been able to sleep through the night without being woken up by Seto's late night dreams. He had fallen asleep thinking of dueling strategies that he could use against Elaine once she was back with them. He could hear his brother starting to wake up and get into the shower as he always did the only difference was that it was incredibly early for him. He had not even gotten up this early when Elaine had lived there, he always slept in and waited for her to get back and wake him up. After a few minutes he pulled himself out of bed too and walked to his shower and turned it on. Once the water hit him he started to get excited at the prospects of the day following his friend and getting her back.
Seto barely managed to pull himself out of bed when the cell phone beside him had went off telling him to get up. Last night had been a long hard night for him but he did not wake up with his normal dream. Instead he dreamt of the kiss he had planted on Elaine's porcelain forehead and how good her cool skin had felt. Only in his dream she had let him hold her and share a more passionate kiss in which her mouth was pressed lovingly to his. When he got out of bed he stood up and stretched and looked at the ring and kissed it gently. "Soon you will be on her finger." He smiled at the prospect and walked off to his shower hearing his brother stir and smiled. Mokuba was excited about Elaine coming back he could tell. He was a little upset that his brother did not tell him about Elaine as soon as he found out but then again in all fairness he had been asleep before Mokuba had even left so he could forgive him. After he got of the shower he set out to pick the perfect outfit for the little scene he had been playing over in which Elaine and he share the perfect kiss and everything is perfect again, nothing could ruin his day today nothing in the world.
Elaine groaned as light came through her window, she was not ready to get up. She had been up last night talking with her friends and just dueling for fun in her hotel room. It reminded her of the things she, Seto, and Mokuba had done together. She knew she had to get up though, she had plans for the day. First thing she was going on a mini date with Joey fruit shopping then afterwards they were heading over to Yugi's grandfather's card shop to do a little work and then she was going to head out and duel for the day and see where the night took her.
When she got to the farmers market she walked around feeling eyes on her once again but shook it off again as it being nothing more then her duelist reputation. She looked around testing some fruit, soon enough she felt a set of strong arms wrap around her and gentle breath on her neck. "Mmmyeah wow Elaine it sure is early." then Joey kissed her cheek, "But you are worth it defiantly." She smiled and pushed him away from her gently. "Hey we are in pub…." she did not get the rest out of her mouth before falling over from an impact. When she scrambled up from the ground she saw Seto on top of Joey punching him. "Oh my God what is going on?"
"SETO! NO!" Mokuba yelled as he lost control of his brother. Seto had started shaking violently and cursing under his breath when he saw Joey wrap his arms around Elaine and when he kissed her cheek there was no containing him what so ever. Seto had torn free of him and ran across the way and tackled Joey and Elaine in the process. He saw Elaine scramble up fruit squished into her clothing and hair as he watched his brother pound away at his friend with out mercy. He watched for a few seconds and then sprinted across the street.
He watched as Elaine tried to pry in between the two men. By this time Joey was on top of his brother pounding away, he could see a black eye forming under his brothers left eye. "Stop it Joey your hurting him.. Seto…. Seto SETO?" she screamed tears streaking her face, her voice was so concerned for Seto that it started to quiver. Mokuba had to smile a little at her care for his brother it was a good sign. What however was not a good sign was how she put herself beside Joey to pull him off. Soon she was pushed back by the force of the fight and Joey knocked her down the ground this time she stayed down and quite.
Seto stopped as he heard Elaine grow silent and Joey did the same. "oh God what have I done?" he heard Joey say in his hood rat accent. He saw the blonde man run to Elaine's side and crouch down, this ignited his fire once again. How could he let the man that knocked her out feign care for her that only he could have. Seto rushed forward and knocked Joey square in the jaw. Joey too stayed down not knocked out but certainly dazed. Seto then crouched down and slipped his arms around Elaine and lifted her up. "Mokuba?" "Yeah big brother?" "Listen I need you to stay here and take care of things you know as far as making sure the cops don't get called and what not. I am taking Elaine home." With that he started walking off in the general direction of their compound Elaine in his arms. His brother standing there left to clean up his mess.
