Seto's POV
It's 22:15 and I'm still working on my computer for Kaiba Corp. Though, I can not concentrate on my work. A certain blond haired dog is burned in my head. Joey Wheeler. He kissed me hours back but… I can still taste his lips. I don't want to think about him, nor the kiss… but it keeps coming back. Maybe I'm just tired of all this work… better get some sleep.

Next Morning
Seto's POV
"Hi Seto!"
I look up from my coffee and see Mokuba enter the kitchen. I smile.
"Good morning Mokuba."
Mokuba smiles back at me and takes a seat at the table. Excited, like always, he starts to tell things to me. Normally I would listen to him. But now I look down at my coffee and my smile disappears. I can all hear it again in my head.
"I already said I'm sorry for loving you!"
I sigh.
"What's wrong big brother?" The curious eyes of Mokuba look at me. I quickly smile again and ruffle his hair.
"Nothing Mokuba. Everything is okay."
I hate it to lie to Mokuba…

Joey's POV
Shit.
I feel like shit and I look like shit… I haven't slept for the whole night. Though I had better slept some hours cause it was school again next day. I can hardly keep my eyes open and it's like my head is going to fall of. The reason of all this? Seto Kaiba. The guy I still feel something for, but who got angry when I told him… or normally would just told him, but kissed him instead…
"Wow Joey! What did you do to yourself?"
I raise my head when I hear Tristan's voice. Yugi and Tea are with him. We start to walk to school.
"Uh… a bad night I guess…" I mumble.
"Wouldn't it be better if you go back home to get some sleep?" Yugi asks.
"Ya, you look terrible." Tea adds while she tries to get my hair in a good shape with her hands.
I think about what Yugi said, trying to ignore Tea's hands in my hair. I would like to sleep for some hours… but… what if Kaiba thinks I'm not coming to school just because he is there?... Actually that's also true, I don't want to face him again… But he probably expects that and he'll think it's funny that I'm such a coward… I won't give him that pleasure…
"Na Yugi, I'm okay… Tea please stop that."
"But it's so messy!"
"Are you sure Joey?"
"I don't care Tea! Ya I am Yugi."
Finally Tea gets her hands out of my hair. It's very nice of her that she wants to help me and stuff… But it's like I want everyone to just leave me alone…
"How was detention yesterday Joey?" Yugi asks chancing the subject.
I swallow. "Well you know, detention, very boring and nothing special…"

School
Joey's POV
We arrive at school when the bell rings. As we enter the class I see Kaiba is already at his desk and quickly turns his head away. I stop in my tracks. Now I see him here… I… Would it be too late to turn around and go home? Suddenly Tristan lays his hands on my shoulders and pushes me further into the class.
"This is not a place to fall asleep Joey, you're blocking the way." He says with a laugh.
I guess that's a no…
Looking down at my feet, I pass Kaiba quickly and sit down at my desk. While I put my books on my desk I notice my hands are shaking again… Is this because I'm tired or because Kaiba is here? The teacher enters the class and immediately begins with the lesson. I start to play with my pen, but my hands are shaking so hard that I accidentally drop the pen. It lands on the floor with a loud sound and a few heads turn my direction.
"Sorry…"I say without making a sound and giving a nervous smile to all who's watching.
I push my chair back and quickly grab my pen that's on the floor. When I raise my head again I feel a sharp pain, grabbing my head with one hand… Damn that hurts… Why do I get such a warm feeling all of the sudden?... My eyelids become so heavy… E-everything gets blurry… I-… I can't get air…
Different sounds… I feel myself slipping of my chair and then everything becomes black.

School
Seto's POV
"It's so warm outside Seto! Can't you just leave your work for once and go swimming with me after school?"
I look at Mokuba and sigh. "We'll see Mokuba. It depends on how much work I have to…"
"C'mon big brother! Just for once!"
"Where have I heard that before…?"
"Please?"
I sigh again. "Okay, but only for once like you said, okay?"
"Yes! You're the best big brother!"
"Now, go to your class or you'll be late." I say with a smile.
Mokuba walks away, my smile disappearing again. I go to my own class and sit down. I'm always on time, the rest of the class always enters after me. Today is no exception. Then I see Wheeler enter and turn my head away quickly… Why am I acting like this anyway? It's not like I did anything wrong…
"This is not a place to fall asleep Joey, you're blocking the way."
I can hear Wheeler's footsteps, or something like that, it's like he can't get his feet of the ground, nearing me and I can't help to give him a quick look… What happened to him? He looks like he hasn't slept… He passes me quickly, looking at his feet… A few seconds later the teacher enters and begins the lesson. It's very rare that I don't pay attention… But… How come Wheeler looks this way? Then suddenly I remember what happened yesterday… The sound of a pen falling on the floor can be heard and I turn my head to the sound. Wheeler mumbles a sorry and I turn away again. Maybe he looks worse then normal but he still is as stupid.
"Mister Wheeler are you all right? Mister Wheeler!"
Me, and everyone else of the class, turns around to see what's going on. Wheeler is holding his head with one hand and is breathing very loudly and quickly. Several people start to yell.
"Joey!"
"What's happening to him?"
"He's suffocating!"
"O my god!"
"He's going to fall!"
Indeed. He loses his balance slowly and closes his eyes, finally slipping of his chair. Some girls scream. I quickly stand up and catch Wheeler before he hits the ground. His face looks very pale. The teacher quickly runs at me and Wheeler and lays his hand on Wheeler's forehead.
"Open all windows! He probably fainted from the warmth… Mister Kaiba, please get the school nurse here as quickly as possible!"
I nod, carefully laying Wheeler down, and run out of class, but…
Why didn't I let him fall?
