Run Away Puppy 2: Mollano's RevengeChapter Four: Back At School
"Awwwwe…. Seto, I don't wanna go to school tomorrow! I wanna stay home!" Mokuba whined as his brother stood in the doorway of his room, eyeing him closely, and then folding his arms across his chest. "Mokuba, go to bed." Seto said sternly. The raven-haired boy whimpered and clutched tighter to the playstation2 controller in his hands. "Mokuba, if you don't start getting ready for bed before I count to ten I will ground you from everything." The boy finally gave in to his elder sibling and went to bed. The young CEO found it as a relief when he saw his golden puppy already in bed and fast asleep. School had been in for almost a month and a half now and Joey was just burnt out. Between schoolwork, homework, and carrying a baby life was killer for the young blonde. The brunette climbed into bed and turned off the light on the nightstand.
5:30 am
'Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!'
Came the shrill cry of Seto's bedside alarm clock. Without ever opening his eyes, the brunette rolled out of his position with Joey and hit the snooze button. He felt the weight on the bed beside him shift then relax again. Just as Seto felt his body begin to slip away from the reality around him that damned alarm clock went off again. The blue-eyed teen moaned with displeasure and hit the off button while forcing himself to sit up straight. He yawned heavily then stretched as he forced himself to stand up.
The first order of business of the morning was to wake his kid brother, which was not going to be easy. Seto strode into Mokuba's room, turned on the light, then walked over to the slumbering boy and began to gently shake his shoulder while saying his name. After about a minute and a half Seto had succeeded. Mokuba stirred then opened his eyes. "Come on kiddo, get up." The raven-haired boy sat up from his bed and watched as his brother left to take his early morning shower.
Back in his own room now, Seto proceeded to pull out a uniform for himself then one for his puppy. Speaking of the blonde…
"Joey… Joey… Joey… puppy…" The brunette said while trying to wake the "unwakeable". Finally the blonde rolled onto his back and whined. "Come on pup, we have to get ready for school."
"But Seto…it's to early."
"We have to get up, we live 25 minutes from the school, and we have to drop Mokuba off you know that." Seto explained while pulling Joey up to sit straight. The blonde moaned in protest but let himself be dragged into the connected bathroom.
7:08 am
"I don't feel right, being here and all." Joey said as he followed Seto up the front stairs of the school and into the building. "Why is that pup?"
"What if someone finds out that I'm pregnant?" The brunette stopped then turned to face his lover. "Eventually people will know…you just have to be strong pup." With that, Seto kissed Joey's forehead then started back on their way to Advanced English class. As they approached the stairwell that led upstairs, the principal stopped them.
"Boys, please come and wait in my office we have some things to discuss." Joey felt his heart begin to race and Seto quirked as eyebrow. Not wanting to make a scene the boys obliged though Joey was nervous and confused.
"Joey." Seto said softly as he watched his puppy wring his school jacket and bite his bottom lip nervously. "Everything is going to be alright puppy." The young CEO said while caressing his face. "What if he knows?"
"Well… we won't be able to do anything about it. You and I both knew someone would eventually figure it out if we didn't come clean soon. And it's been three months." Just as Seto finished speaking principal Kurugi and councilor Staci Champlin entered the office and closed the door. Seto watched as Kurugi sat down in his chair and as the councilor stood her ground beside the principal.
"So what do we need to discuss?" Seto asked while crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes. Though Kurugi dealt with many out of line teens, Seto always managed to send a shiver down his spine. Kurugi cleared his throat, "That day you came to talk to me, I thought I was kidding! I didn't know you were actually gonna get Mr. Wheeler pregnant! Hell I didn't even know you could do that. This is just…unacceptable!"
"You got a problem with that?" Seto asked coldly as if Joey's pregnancy was nothing out of the ordinary. Kurugi nodded his head, "Yes! Yes I do! I explained to you that this school has an image and a reputation to hold up! And a pregnant boy is not good for publicity!"
"And by saying such things and sending all pregnant girls away you are showing nothing but weakness…weakness of knowledge." Principal Kurugi sneered, "How do you suppose? Never has a student dropped out from Domino High! We have been rated and awarded five gold stars!"
"You've never let anyone drop out and you've never let any single teen mothers graduate from here either. You kick out failing students and you send pregnant mothers away. Your weakness of knowledge comes from this school's inability to provide the proper help and advice for your students." The young CEO retorted back to his hard-assed principal. "So you're saying that this school can't provide the right help for teens who degrade themselves?" Kurugi asked while glaring at Joey's hidden face. "This is between you and me Kurugi, leave Joey alone." Seto's stern voice brought the principal's glare back to him. "You show lack of pride for your students. You and almost half of your faculty are too busy gazing at their golden reflections in their miss-awarded trophies and rolling around in your oh-so-important five gold stars. You're helpless when it comes to students who want your help and even more so when it comes to life, so simply you send them off blaming them instead of aiding them. Never once have I seen this school act in the best interests of its students, but that all stops with Joey."
Principal Kurugi looked wide-eyed at Seto, "What do you mean? I can kick this punk out if I wanted to."
"Being as thick-head as you are you would say that, but you're wrong. You see, you send all those pregnant girls to an all girls secondary school…"
"What is your point Mr. Kaiba?"
"Joey is a pregnant boy, so he can't go there and seeing that Domino High is a public school you can't deny his right to a free education. Besides, his grades are good and he attends on a regular basis." Seto finished his argument with a victorious smirk and folded his arms across his chest. Kurugi knew the seventeen-year-old CEO had him pinned, Joey would have to come to school, even when he began to show, which may be soon.
Mrs. Champlin walked over to the door and asked for the boys to follow her. Seto nodded, then threw the principal one last death glare. He pulled Joey up then ushered him out the door. Soon enough the boys were seated in her office.
"Mr. Kaiba, Joey's physician called yesterday and wanted to make sure that we aware of his pregnancy. Please don't be upset with her she was just trying to help."
"There's no reason to be upset with Doctor White, she was just acting in the best interest of the baby." Joey spoke between a couple weak sobs and a sniffle. "Well it's nice to see you finally coming around Joey." The councilor said with a smile.
"Thank you for being so understanding of this situation, I know it must be odd for you to know." Seto thanked. "It is odd and unusual but I find nothing wrong with it. Right now our concern is with the baby and Joey's health. I am going to do everything in my power to protect Joey and this baby." Seto smiled and nodded his approval. "Well, what I brought you boys in here for were these." The councilor said while handing them each a piece of paper.
"Schedules?" Seto asked while arching an eyebrow. "Now, you both were taking two unnecessary elective classes so, in light of this new information I gave you both two classes that will help you with your relationship and this baby. L.I.F.E Relationships/Children and Teen pregnancy/parenting." The boys looked down at their schedules then nodded at their councilor. "Alright you're both free to attend your classes. Oh…and congratulations on the baby." The boys smiled then exited the room.
LUNCH
"Hey guys!" Yugi called as he watched Joey and Seto enter the cafeteria. They saw the boy and went over to join him and the others.
"Hey Ryou, where've you been? School started two months ago." Joey said as he sat down at Yugi's left hand side. "Yes, I do realize that but my Dad was in a horrific car accident in downtown London. The doctors said he would never walk again, but he's pulled through and started physical therapy." Ryou explained. Joey felt terrible for bringing something like that up, "Oh, I'm sorry to here that. I didn't mean to…"
"That's okay Joey, you didn't know." The white-haired boy said with an understanding smile. The brown-eyed teen nodded. "Well, I hope he gets better Ryou, that's awful."
"Yeah, I know he'll get better."
"So, what's wrong with you 'puppy'?" Bakura asked while eyeing the blonde closely. Joey began to fall nervous under Bakura's searching eyes. "You better watch yourself whitey! Nobody calls Joey 'puppy' other than me. Got that?" Seto growled dangerously at the former tomb robber. "Ooo, territorial are we? That sounds like a challenge." Seto snarled at the thief.
"Cut it out Bakura." Ryou warned. The tomb robber did as he was told but smirked at the brunette. "But now that I think about it, Bakura has a point. Joey does seem different and his eating habits sure have changed." Ryou said while glancing from Joey's well-balanced lunch to the blonde.
"You mean Joey and Seto haven't told you yet?" Yugi asked a little shocked. "Told us what?" The white-haired boy asked while arching an eyebrow at the blonde. "Well…?" Bakura asked. Joey inaudibly mumbled beneath his breath. "What's that?" Bakura asked.
"I. AM. PREGNANT."
For a moment Ryou and Bakura sat stilled in disbelief from the words that escaped their friend's mouth. Finally the thief king began to chuckle. "What's so funny?" Joey asked defensively. "Nothing blondie, I just can't believe it took this long for you to get pregnant. You and Seto fuck so much, I just thought it would happen sooner, besides…"
"Okay Bakura we all got the picture! We know how babies are made and we know what Joey and Seto had to do. Now can we please eat lunch and have a normal conversation?" Duke pleaded. Bakura rolled his eyes, "Normal is so vastly overrated!"
7:46 pm
"Alright, you two are going to be fully knowledge by the time your baby comes." Sachi said while smiling at Joey and Seto. "Do we really have to go over birth? Joey has to have a cesarean section." Seto explained. "Well if we don't I won't have to go over how to vaginally birth, but it'll probably be best to just learn everything you both can." Sachi stated. The brunette nodded then smiled at his lover.
"Do you guys have any questions about the pregnancy or the baby in general?"
"Actually, could you tell me what's going on inside of me? What's happening to my baby?" Joey asked while resting his right hand over his slowly expanding tummy.
"Well, right now you are currently 12 weeks pregnant. So…when it comes to your baby he or she is approximately 5.5cm or 2.5 inches in length and it weighs less than one ounce. Your baby is also fully formed, believe it or not. All the baby's vital organs have formed and are present. The teeth are developing in the gums, the baby's sex organs are well developed, and even the soft nails on the baby's hands and toes have formed."
"Wow, three months and the baby's already fully formed." Seto marveled. Sachi smiled, "If you're that amazed now just wait, they grow up fast." The young CEO looked over to his brother and smiled, "Yes, they do grow up fast."
"So, do you have any advice for me?" Joey asked. "Of course! You…Mommy, can start eating fresh foods, fruits, and vegetables. Rest or nap when you can and exercise but don't go nuts. You could start drinking six eight-ounce glasses of water a day. Daddy over here can even join you on your new healthy habits. Joey looked over to Seto and gave him the puppy eyes, "Will you?" The brunette couldn't say no to his lover so he had no other option but to say, "Of course I will puppy."
"Well I best be on my way home, I have three little ones of my own to take care of."
"Thank you so much for your services." Seto said while escorting Sachi to the front door. "No problem, you two take care of that baby and I'll see you guys Saturday." The young brunette smiled and nodded.
"She called me 'Mommy'." Joey said as he stood up to face Seto. "Well, technically you are, only mothers carry the baby…do you not like the thought of being called mommy?"
"Of course I do." Seto smiled. His puppy yawned then rubbed his eyes, "I think I'm gonna call it a night."
"But it's only 8:11 pup." The brunette said while looking down at his watch. "Yeah well, we only have school tomorrow and I'm only three months pregnant." With that the blonde gathered himself and went upstairs to bed.
"Alright Mokuba, why don't you go upstairs and get ready for bed then you can play some games before bedtime." The boy nodded then ran upstairs followed by his brother.
Seto POV
Wow, has it really been three months? This pregnancy is going to fly by quick. Well, I better send out an e-mail to our friends about how to find out about what gifts to get for the baby. I also need to order those baby books I picked out for Joey so that he and I can read up on the unborn addition to the family. I sit down at my desk in the office down the hall from the bedroom and begin to compose my e-mail. It takes me about ten minutes to type the whole thing then paste the link to You And Your Baby's store homepage. I send it off and that's one less thing I have to worry about. I order those books and have them shipped over night. I yawn then shut down the computer. Next order of business, inform the public of the baby.
End Seto POVAuthor's Note: So what did you think of chapter four? Don't worry the next chapter is going to be full of action! Well thanks for reading and I hope to see you next chapter and don't forget to review!
