Run Away Puppy 2: Mollano's RevengeChapter Seven: When Bad Situations Go From Worse To Hell
"It's Mollano." The puppy sobbed as he clung to Seto's shirt for dear life. "What about him pup? He's locked away in a high security prison, he won't get you." Joey's breaths began to come in short ragged wheezes. "Seto…." The blonde whispered before passing out in his lover's arms.
'Hmm? What's going on? Wha…what happened to me?' Joey asked as he opened his eyes slowly. He looked around and was startled when a voice came quickly. "Joey, are you okay?" Dr. White asked while kneeling down in front of him. Seto, Yami, and Yugi hovered over the boy, looking on nervously. "What happened to me?""You fainted." Yugi answered. Joey looked up at his small friend, "You're still here?" The boy nodded, "Yeah, Yami and I couldn't just leave in the state you were in. We were worried about you." Joey sat up holding his head in his right hand. "Why did I faint?"
"You don't remember?" Seto asked while caressing his puppy's face. The blonde shook his head. "Seto tells me that the last thing you said was something about a man named Mollano." The doctor explained. 'Oh, yeah…my dream…Mollano attacked us and threatened to take my baby's life.' The puppy thought to himself. "Joey?" Yugi asked. "Mollano attacked Seto and I, he threatened to kill the baby…I figured after his conviction everything about him would leave me alone. He almost killed me once and it scares me that he'll come back somehow and try to finish the job." Seto took the blonde puppy into his arms and held him close and tightly. "I doubt that this convicted killer will come back for you, but I think your anxiety comes from the stress you've been put under lately. Don't worry that's normal just try and avoid most of it if you can." The doctor explained to Joey. 'That sounds reasonable; I guess it's just the stress. I mean Seto's right, how could he get out of a maximum security prison?'
"Are you gonna be okay?" Dr. White asked. Joey nodded and huggled Seto closer. The brunette smiled and returned the affection. "All right, since everything is seeming back to order I'll take my leave." Seto nodded to his doctor and thanked her for the house call. She excused herself, leaving the two couples to themselves.
"I'm glad you're okay." Yugi said relieved. "We all are." The former pharaoh said while pulling his light to his body. Joey smiled to his friends without removing himself from the CEO's body.
"Well since you're okay, Yugi and I are gonna head home, we had a long day." Yami said while he and his koi lifted off the loveseat. "Okay guys, I guess we'll see you Monday." Joey called to his friends before they said their goodbyes and walked out the door. The brunette got up and locked the front door then he and the puppy went upstairs.
Joey mumbled tiredly as he laid himself down on the king sized bed. Seto came in behind and closed the door. He smirked playfully then crawled onto his bed. He hovered over his puppy then kissed him passionately. They pulled away and Joey rested his arms around his lover's neck. "You scared me earlier." The blue-eyed teen whispered. "Sorry, I didn't do it intentionally." Seto smirked, "You wanna see what I did intentionally?" The puppy quirked his eyebrows and cocked his head in such a way that it made the brunette chuckle at such a cute sight. He finally leaned down and kissed his pup then left his mouth for the soft skin of his neck. Joey moaned as he felt the brunette's skilled tongue against his skin. The taller teen began to suck harder and the blonde buried his fingers in silky cinnamon brown locks.
"S…Se…Seto… please." The puppy begged. "What?" Seto asked huskily in the amber-eyed teen's ear. "I…I…I don't know if this is safe." The brunette lifted his head so his eyes met Joey's. "For the baby you mean?" The shorter teen nodded. "I'm already two steps ahead of you; this kind of thing is okay."
"Really?" Joey asked while eyeing his boyfriend. "I wouldn't lie to you about this, I am just as concerned about this baby as you are." The blonde smiled and captured his lover's lips in a tender kiss to tell him that it was okay to continue what he was doing.
Monday morning, 6:55 am
Joey fiddled with his bag strap nervously as he sat in the passenger seat of Seto's car. "You gonna be okay pup?" The teen beside the brunette sighed heavily, "I don't know, I mean…I shouldn't be here, I don't belong. I'm a freak." Seto had always hated Monday mornings and now a depressed and self-conscious puppy on a Monday morning wasn't any better. "Don't talk down about yourself pup, you know I don't like that. You're not a freak; you're pregnant is all. And don't you dare take it for granted." Seto warned. The blonde said nothing; he just stared at the carpeting of Seto's Mustang. "Pup, come on cheer up. I hate Mondays as it is, don't be so pessimistic." With those words Joey felt something flare up within him, "Well I'm sorry Mr. Big-Shot-CEO, some of us aren't perfect and have a reason to be pessimistic. Sorry for ruining your life!" Joey snapped while jumping out of the car and slamming the door shut. Seto exhaled unevenly, though he tried to calm himself, 'It's just a bad case of hormones this morning. He's pregnant and his hormones are running wild.' The brunette kept repeating to himself over and over again in his head. He got out of his car, grabbed his book bag, and locked his car before heading into the school to try and find his 'crazy-hormoned' puppy. The young CEO tried to enter the building when Tristan and Ryou stopped him. "Can you please, move?" Seto asked nicely. "No, not until you tell us what you said to Joey to make him cry like that." Tristan demanded in a rather icy tone.
"Don't mock me Taylor, I don't have time for this, I need to find Joey." Seto shot back. "But you have time to make him cry?" Ryou asked disgusted. "It wasn't me, I didn't say anything to him!" The blue-eyed teen argued in his defense. "Right, you get him pregnant, then you make him depressed. This is an all time low for you Kaiba." Tristan barked. The young CEO snapped, "You know what, I don't need this shit! Fuck you all!" With that a royally pissed off Seto Kaiba walked back to his car and sped out of the student parking lot. Ryou and Tristan high-fived each other for the good work they had done.
Joey lifted off the bathroom floor and wiped his eyes of any remaining tears. He couldn't face his fellow students like this, he didn't even know if he could handle being pregnant in front of them all. He cleaned his face then prepared himself for the worst. Stepping out of the bathroom he expected to get ugly stares and rude catcalls, but… surprisingly nobody said anything…that was weird because he was a pregnant boy. Maybe the students had heard so much of it on the news that it just didn't bother them, I mean he and Seto had announced the baby two weeks ago. Just then his heart dropped, Seto. What had he done? He snapped unnecessarily at the other teen and even had two of his friends keep the CEO from following him. Knowing Seto, he probably just pushed through them and went to class. Joey tried to perk up some then made his way to Advanced English, it was then that he would apologize to his lover.
Joey entered the classroom but was surprised that Seto wasn't sitting his desk reading a book awaiting his beloved puppy. Maybe he was looking for him. The blonde decided to sit at his desk and wait for class to begin, surely the brunette show by then.
The bell had rang, class had started, and still no sign of Seto. Where was he? Joey couldn't keep his attention on the lesson, his eyes kept wondering to the door and lingered for a moment.
"And Mr. Wheeler, are you expecting someone?" Mrs. Ruth Maenpaa asked while looking the blonde straight in the eyes. "Uh… no Mrs. Maenpaa, sorry." Joey apologized hopelessly. "Good, now please try and pay attention to this lesson so that you may do your assignment correctly." Joey nodded and stared blankly toward the teacher, his mind still lingered on his missing boyfriend.
After the teacher had finished her lesson, she passed out the assignment papers for her students and naturally they began to work. Joey was more than half way through the third page of his six-page packet when a paper ball hit him in the head and landed on his desk. Who would send him a note? He didn't really know anyone in this class other than Seto. He opened the note and read what it said.
Hey freak,
Tell me where my boyfriend and me can get pregnant! FAG! Are you sure you're even a boy? FAG!
Joey felt a hint of anger spark within him and he turned in his seat to see who threw the note. Nobody was making themselves obvious. He tried to calm himself down when another ball hit him in the head. He opened it…
Where's your baby's Daddy? Did he leave you for another pregnant guy?Joey was trying hard not to lash out and it took all of his strength to keep quiet. Another note…
Your baby is a barbarian; people from all over the world will come to condemn it on your front porch. There are even those that will go as far as killing it…
By now, the poor puppy was fighting with his anger and his tears. Another note…Do you spread for just anybody? I hear you've had sex with Yugi, Mokuba, Tea, Tristan, Duke, and Ryou. Do you think Seto will mind if I barrow you after the baby is born and fuck you hard up your ass? Do you think you can carry my baby for me too?
Joey snapped, he had read enough; he took all the notes in his hand and stood up before the class. "All right you fucking assholes, it's one thing to call me a whore and a fag, but when it comes to you all shooting my defenseless, unborn baby down, you've crossed the fucking line. You all need to get a fucking life, maybe even go get pregnant yourselves, then you'll know! I hope you all fucking rot in hell and may the worst come to you in your future days. I HOPE YOU ALL FUCKING DIE!" With that Joey stormed out of the classroom crying. If there was ever a time he needed Seto it was now.
"Mr. Wheeler!" Mrs. Maenpaa called from down the hall. He turned to her then cried out in utter pain and held his stomach. "No…I…don't wanna miscarry. This is our baby…"
"Mr. Wheeler are you alright?" Mrs. Maenpaa asked while kneeling down to the Joey's level. Her students watched on in horror."Seto…save the baby…" Was all the blonde said before he blacked out again.
11:59 am
"Oh, Mr. Kaiba. I didn't know you were in this morning." Kimia said surprised. "I didn't know I was gonna be in." His secretary heard the pain his voice and wondered if she should ask. "Do you wanna talk about it?" She asked. Kaiba shook his head, "Not particularly, just…if you see Joey, let him up." Kimia nodded her head, "Yes sir." Just as the woman got herself seated at her desk her phone rang. "Kaiba Corporation Headquarters, this is Kimia, how can I help you?" There was a silence before the secretary put down the phone and stood in her boss' doorway, "Sir, you have an emergency phone call on line 2." The teen nodded and picked up the phone.
"This is Kaiba."
"Seto, I'm glad I got a hold of you. You need to come down to the hospital." Dr. White said frantically through her end of the line. "Why what's wrong?"
"It's Joey."
Seto raced through the hallways of Domino University Hospital making his way toward his puppy's room. As he approached, Dr. White turned to greet him. "Seto."
"How is he? How's the baby?" The urgency in Seto's voice got the attention of the nurses around him. "Come, let's go inside and talk." She said while pushing the unnerved teen into his lover's room.
"Oh god, Joey." He said while standing beside the blonde and touching his face affectionately. Seto was on the brink of tears. Joey was still passed out cold in his bed and didn't give any sign that he knew that anyone was in the room with him. "What happened?" The brunette chocked out. "His teacher told me that the students were making nasty comments in notes that they wrote to Joey and he finally snapped and faced all the students with the anger they had fed. Due to all the pressure he was under it caused the baby to become stressed and naturally caused a brutal couple contractions for him."
"Do you have the notes?"
"They're in his school bag if you care to look." Seto nodded. "He can't keep getting stressed out, if he does… I fear that it may be fatal to your baby. Now you can press charges for assault. Are you willing to do that?"
"Hell yes." Seto snapped quickly. His doctor left the room leaving him with a blacked out puppy. The brunette pulled a chair next to the bed and took hold of his lover's right hand. "Come on Joey, pull through this. Be strong…be strong for the baby." Seto said while placing his free hand on the blonde's tummy. Seeing as he had a free moment, the brunette pulled the respective notes out of his pup's bag. He was shocked about what he saw written on the pieces of wrinkled paper. He would take care of this little problem before school let out.
'Mmmm? What happened?' Joey said while coming out of his fainted stage. He looked around the room and felt his right hand clutch something. He looked down and saw a white rose and a note. Should he open it? It looked harmless…it did come with a rose. He opened it…
Puppy,
If you're reading this it means you're still alive. I'm sorry if I said anything that might have been trivial to you to this morning. I was here with you earlier but I decided your tormentors need my full attention right now. Please get some rest. I love you and tell that baby I love him or her too. See you when I'm done.
Seto
It came as a relief to Joey to see that the note was from his boyfriend. He didn't know if he could handle anymore cruel words. He rested the hand he had the rose in over his stomach and closed his eyes to get a little more rest.
"Will all students in Mrs. Maenpaa's first hour Advanced English class meet in the Auditorium at this time." Came a woman's voice over the intercom. The students left their present classes and met in the directed area. Once in the students were locked in by Domino Police and a couple of Seto's bodyguards. The students were shaken.
"What the fuck is this?" One of the boys yelled. Seto Kaiba stepped out from behind the stage curtain and spoke in his icy tone. "Shut your mouth and sit down." The students complied. He looked through the group of students and found the whole lot to be no good.
"I have four disturbing notes up here on this table, in these evidence bags. These notes were written earlier today in Ruth Maenpaa's class to be used cruelly toward one Joseph Wheeler, whom is currently carrying a child and is now hospitalized at the moment. I want the four animals that wrote these harmful to reveal themselves." Seto demanded. He watched as no one fessed up to the notes. "Alright, if those of you who wrote these notes do not come forward I will make trouble, I will press charges of assault against those who wrote these after the police identify the finger prints. But, if you come forward, I may consider not pressing charges." To Seto's surprise, all four students stood up.
"I have a black permanent marker, I want you four to come up here and write your name on the evidence bag with your note in it." The students obliged. Mika Norring, Jory Cho, Mathew Long, and Lina Her all wrote their names on their respective bag. Seto gathered the bags and smirked, "I'll see you all in court."
"But you said you weren't going to press charges!" Jory accused. Seto turned to face the boy, "You nearly killed my unborn baby, besides, I said I may consider not pressing charges, I never said I wouldn't." With that, the CEO left the students in the hands of Domino's Police force.
As Joey lay in his hospital bed, he gazed at his beautiful white rose. Seto could be a hopeless romantic at times but he adored him all the same. The blonde was settled into the calming silence of his room but was suddenly interrupted when his door opened. Quickly his head turned to the right. "Seto."
"Joey." The brunette said while making his way over to the blonde. The young CEO was greeted with a happy to see him puppy whom took his lips into a heated and intense kiss. They pulled away and leaned their foreheads together. The blonde wrapped his arms around the blue-eyed teen in a possessive manner. "Don't you ever let me do that to you again." Joey whispered before kissing the tip of Seto's nose. The taller teen chuckled before placing a chaste kiss on his lover's lips, "You count on that puppy."
"You know, make up sex is the best sex you'll ever have." Bakura said while he and the others looked on as the couple made up. Joey and Seto looked to the door and invited their friends in.
"So, we have to lay low for a few months, what are we gonna do Birdo?" Mollano asked while exiting his friend's private plane. "We are gonna round up a few of these boys' enemies and begin to plot against them, don't you know anything Jamie?" Birdo asked with a grin on his face. James shook his head, Birdo always was known for his surprise attacks with familiar faces. "Come on I have a buddy who lives just another town over, we stay there 'til the baby is born and then…" Birdo aimed his index finger. "How 'bout I show you where they reside before we head to the next town." Birdo nodded and motioned Jamie to follow him into the black Lexus Birdo's buddy sent for them.
The car pulled up to huge mansion in a rich people's neighborhood. The occupants watched as a puppy came up to the front door and began to bark, the door opened and the puppy went in. "This is where dese brats live?" Mollano nodded his head. "Nice place, nice neighborhood. They'll ne'er know wha' hit em'." The former mob boss smiled at his friend as they began to drive away. Little did they know that their targets had moved.
They had been conversing with their friends and had explained what had happened between them this morning. Then Joey went on to tell why he had ended up in the hospital. Yugi and Bakura were the most shocked. Both disgusted in the nerve of those students. A knock at the door interrupted their chat.
"Hello Joey, Seto." Dr. White said as she entered the room and began to check all of the blonde's monitors. "I am going to take another look at your baby, just to make sure that its heartbeat has settled down and that it's resting comfortably." She explained. "By all means." Seto said while motioning her to begin. She smiled and set up the machine and Joey for the second ultrasound that day. Just as the baby's heartbeat hit everybody else's ears the hair on the back of their necks stood up. Tea had been the one to let tears fill her eyes. Yugi went over to Seto's side and looked up at the monitor with the image of a baby on it… a real baby. The sadness the boy had thought he had gotten over took over and tears began to silently spill. Just to see that tiny being growing, it truly was a miracle…Yugi wanted one. Only when the doctor spoke did the boy wipe his face and tried to hide his emotions.
"Okay, the heartbeat is steady now, but the little one seems to be a bit unnerved still. It should calm in the next hour or so if you stay calm. That is why I want you to stay over night, so that I may check up on you and the baby when I need to." Dr. White said while cleaning the mouse then the blonde's stomach. "Will that be okay with you Joey?" She asked. The blonde smiled and nodded, "As long as it's in the best interest of the baby then it's fine with me."
"Okay, great. I'll come back in an hour and check up on you and your child." With that she nodded and excused herself.
Joey and Seto looked among their silent friends. "You guys alright?" Joey asked a bit worried. Tea wiped her eyes. "It's truly real, this baby I mean." Ryou said in awe. Joey smiled, "It's not even yours and you all have that same look Seto had at the first ultrasound."
"Where's Yugi?" Yami had finally asked. He wasn't in the room and nobody had noticed that he left.
