Accidentally In Love
Chapter 4: Used to be my Home
"Niisama!" Mokuba greeted when Seto opened the door. He launched himself at Seto giving him a great big hug. Seya smiled inwardly as he remembers the way he usually greets his father when he comes home from work. He used to do that when he's little but when he entered junior high...he somehow settles with a simple 'good evening father.'
"How's your day Mokuba?" Seto smiled as he ruffled Mokuba's hair. Seya missed how his father would do that to him. He's a lot closer to his dad Jou than with Seto so times like that are really rare.
"It's fine. We went to the museum today. We focused more on the Egyptian wing because there's a large wall painting of the paraoh Atemu and his high priest Seth dueling--who's he?" Mokuba notices Seya behind his brother.
"Him? That's Yuki Seya. He's an exchange student and will be spending his two weeks here at the mansion." Seto explained.
"Hi! Nice to meet you." Seya bowed. Mokuba nodded then noticed the resemblance.
"Niisama...he looks a lot like you but..." Seto's eyebrows raised a bit.
"But what?"
"He looks like Jou too."
"This will be your room." Seto opened a door. Seya couldn't help but be amazed. His father led him to his room in the future.
"Mokuba's room is across the hall and my room is at the end of it. There's a bathroom around the corner but each room has its small lavatory." Seto explained. Seya nodded not really listening. Afterall, he knows this mansion like the back of his hand.
Seto eyed him before continuing. "I'll leave you here then. If you need anything, just ask the helpers or Mokuba. Remember all my rules and you might survive living here for two weeks." with that he turned towards his study but Seya stopped him.
"What?"
"When's dinner?" Seya grinned. Seto gaped for a minute before taking back his composure. For a time there, he thought that it's Katsuya asking him. He cleared his throat before answering.
"You'll be called when it's ready."
Seya plopped down his bed noticing the difference of his room now and from the future.
His posters are gone and so was his duel monsters plushies.
His red eyes beanbag is gone from the corner where his dad had put it and his bookshelf were gone too. His desk now was empty from his schoolbooks and his laptop. He didn't bother opening the closet knowing all too well that his clothes were gone too.
'Wait a sec...I don't have any clothes here!' he sat up remembering that he doesn't have anything except the clothes his wearing when he returned to the past and the uniform he nicked from the school. He opened his wallet and groan... all he have is a thousand dollar bill (which he can't use since it's signed by the newest president.) and some credit cards.
A lightbulb then lit on his head.
"And that's the whole story." Seya ended his story with teary puppy dog eyes. Mokuba looked at him with pity offering his sympathy.
"Then you don't have a thing with you now?" he asked where Seya just nodded.
"Poor yuki-san...losing all his belongings at the airport. Those men really were evil, taking all your things."
"Just call me Seya. And yeah...I guess I'll be spending my whole two weeks wearing only my uniform and the clothes I'm wearing when I arrived here." Seya sighed. He really doesn't want to lie to his uncle Mokuba but it's his only chance.
"I'll tell Niisama that and-" he's cut off when Seto entered the room.
"Tell me what Mokuba?"
"Seya here lost all his things at the airport. Now, he doesn't have anything. Niisama, can we lend him some money so we can go shop for his clothes and other necessities?" Mokuba asked. Seto's about to deny when Mokuba flashed him his infamous 'puppy dog eyes'. He turned to Seya, which is a bad move, since he's also sporting the 'puppy dog eyes.' Seya chuckled inwardly, his dad's 'puppy dog eyes' alone could make Seto weak, what more of a double 'puppy dog eyes' attack?
Seto winced inwardly. He really can't refuse Mokuba when he's sporting those eyes but Seya's another thing. He reminds him of Katsuya's eyes. They may not be honey gold but the aura he's emitting is the same as the pup.
Seto closed his eyes in defeat. "Fine. Take my card and go to the mall. I expect you to be back at 8:00, ok?" with that he left. Mokuba just grinned while Seya just sighed with relief.
They arrived no later than 8:00 so they heard nothing from Seto. He just raised an eyebrow after looking at the five bags of clothes and another bag of necessities. But Mokuba assured him that they didn't spend alot. And receipts supported this.
"He's like Jou when shopping. He led me to this discount stores and boy, he fought like him when someone wants the same clothes." Mokuba told them over dinner. Seya blushed furiously. Old habits die-hard and He and his dad holds the title 'thrift shoppers' back from the future.
Seto just glanced at Seya and was amazed to see him blush. 'He really looks like a lost pup. Just like my pup...' his thoughts trailed off when it came to a stop.
'MY PUP?!!!' he abruptly stood up.
"Niisama?"
"Uh...excuse me. I still have work to do." with that, he left leaving two confused persons.
Seya entered his room. This day was really exhausting. He woke up twenty years back in the past, hacked in his father's system, entered his future school as an exchange student, meeting all the grownups in the future the same age as him and now, currently staying at his future house with his eighteen years old father.
He sighed. As he looks back that day and remember his dad's smile...somehow he had second thoughts. He shook his head. ' Well, there's a dry run of three days so I can still choose.' he said to himself. He eyed his ring as he fell down the bed , face first.
When his body contacted with the bed, he felt something rectangular on his chest. He went on his back and took out his card pendant. It looks like his father's and uncle locket in the past where they put their pictures but Seto made special arrangements. It's one of the prototype before that toy was launched in the future. He opened it and pressed the blue button. A 3D picture of him, Seto and Katsuya popped out. (Just like the dual monsters but a bit tiny.) He's about five in the picture and Jou's carrying him. His dad is pointing at the camera while his father's just eyeing him, showing a small smile. He then pressed the red button and the picture was changed into another one. This time, it was the picture of the whole gang plus their kids. It was the day Malik, Marik and Isis went back to Egypt. He pressed the red button again and a picture of Jou and Seto hugging in front of the fireplace changed it. He continued pressing the red button and each time, different pictures popped out. There's a photo of Seto covered with icing since Katsuya clumsily throws the cake when they tried surprising him for his birthday. Also, there's some of his picture with his friends Yuki, Daisuke and Ren. He also has some picture of his uncle Mokuba before he had gone to his archaeological site in Egypt. There's a picture of him and Jou dancing and another doing their shopping. This earned a smile remembering what happened that day.
"You've what?!!!!" Seto almost fainted. And why not? His husband just returned with his kid from shopping carrying about ten bags of clothes.
"Relax Ryu. I didn't overspend a single cent. I stayed within the budget. Afterall, who would want the resident billionaire bankrupt?" Katsuya grinned before hugging his husband.
"Money's not the point pup. But Seya's with you and that could impose..." Jou silenced him with a kiss.
"Don't worry. He had inherited my shopping skills." he then showed the receipt as proof. Jou then turned to Seya and winked. Seya just smiled at his parents.
"I miss dad..." Jou's like his bestfriend. Sure, Yuki's his bestest best friend but Jou's his special bestfriend. He's alot closer to him than his father Seto. He's his buddy in crime. Jou's always at his side and always support him. He's always there to help and to comfort. He knows it might be biased but he can safely say that he knows his dad more than his father. Seto's always away from work or out of town. He rarely sees him when he's home for he always locked himself to his study. He only sees him whenever there's a special occasion or if it's Christmas.
The last pictured appeared but Seya just put it on his bedside table. He doesn't need to see it. After all, he came back just to change that picture. The picture of Jou and Seto hugging each other on their wedding day.
