Chapter Five: Blissful Ignorance"Congratulations Mr. Wheeler, you have a healthy boy."
I'm surprised, Wheeler's so screwed up it's amazing this kid is healthy.
"ALRIGHT! I'm a father Yugi!"
"…God help us all. You a father, that poor child…well, it has been born into a lesbian relationship, so I guess the kid has been shown mercy."
"Why do you have ta ruin everything ya prick?"
"I'm not ruining it, I'm making it realistic. Another Wheeler? I hope those lesbians can crack through that shell."
"One of those lesbians is standing right here."
Ha, I laugh at her glare. It's so pathetic. "I can see perfectly fine. I know exactly where you're standing."
"Well then maybe you don't understand that I hate being insulted!"
"When was I insulting you? I was actually complimenting. I respect you far more than Wheeler."
"Then don't insult Joey in front of me!"
Women…they are never satisfied. "Then I'll go back to being cold and merciless to you."
"What?"
Like I said… "Make up your mind."
"…such an ass hole."
"I didn't have to do any of this for you." Which now leads me to realize why I did this? I don't mind them as much as I did when we were younger…still, I just dropped everything and stayed here for god knows how long.
"And I thank you for that but that doesn't give you the right to harass us!"
"Then sit down, shut up, and quit whining. I hate it when people flip-flop so much."
She huffs then storms back to her girlfriend. I swear women, lesbian or not, are all bitchy and whinny.
I sit down and cross my legs. I really don't know why I won't just leave this train wreck. Is there a reason for me to stay? …hmm, even if there's not I feel I must.
I lean back fully and scan the other occupants of the room.
"Heh, if you stare long enough Wheeler you might just bust that tiny brain of yours. Well then, go ahead, you'd being doing the rest of us a favor."
"Screw you Kaiba!"
"Sorry, bitches like you aren't my type." … although I wouldn't mind seeing him in that dog suit again.
I shake my head and clear it of that disturbing yet…pleasant thought. This whole trip is taking a toll on me. It must be emotional stress that's making me think such disturbing thoughts…about Wheeler of all people.
Yugi's been quiet. He hasn't even said a word to me about saying all this shit to his friends. Something must be really wrong. …there I go again.
"Looking at something in particular?" I swear sometimes I just can't ask what's wrong.
"Hmm? …oh, no nothing." Ok…now he's just acting strange.
"Then…what's the matter?"
"…nothing's really wrong…I'm just worried about Mai and Teá."
"Why might I ask?" the kid's already born. Unless Yugi's worried about the same thing I am. Bad genes.
"…I…" now that's odd…where's the speech of undying loyalty?
"There's something wrong with you, now spill."
"Hey! Jus' leave Yug alone!" …whining little dog.
"Then you talk to your friend. Stop being the bitch I always thought you were." Thought? Still do.
"Maybe he's jus' hungry."
Oh yeah, that's smart. "Wheeler…you decrease in the ability to think straight every time I meet you."
"Huh?"
"My point was just proven." Amazing how he does that for me.
"Seto…could you…please be nicer to Joey?"
That's the first time in this group anyone has ever asked me so nicely. "…Fine. I shall go back to working. Say something if you absolutely need me. …And I mean absolutely." I pull out my laptop again. I have a feeling I won't be working though.
I hear someone giggle. …Uh, did I just think giggle? However, that sound could only be described as such.
I look up and see Yugi covering his mouth. "What?"
"Are you working Seto? Or playing more minesweeper?"
That little…how dare he. "And I thought I was cruel."
"Hee…" Hmm…what an adorable smile…whoa…I am not thinking that.
"I swear…you're way too cutesy for your own good."
"If I didn't know any better, I'd think you like me like that."
Is he…teasing me? What fucked up universe did I land in? Yugi…top duelist, the protagonist of every story, the undying loyal friend…? Flirting with Seto Kaiba? …dear god…
"Oh what Seto? I'm just playing."
…Work…work is good. "Why would I care? It seems to me you're always playing."
"Maybe…"
When will this day end? When will I wake up from the queer yet somehow…appealing nightmare?
"Joey?"
"Huh, what?"
Oh now what does she want?
"Mai thought it would be a good idea to have you help us name our boy."
"Sure! Of course! So you guys have some choices?"
"Well, we decided on three names. Bob, Claude, or Austin."
"Hmm…my vote goes to Bob."
"How about something more elegant and French. Something along the lines of…oh, Robert."
"Ooh! I like that! It's cute and sophisticated!"
Holy shit she agreed with me. …this is a queer yet appealing nightmare.
"…Yeah…I guess…it's alright…" His pout amuses me.
"Cool, I'll go tell Mai! Thanks Kaiba!"
"That was a great suggestion Seto. You really made Teá happy."
"That's interesting, I've never done that before."
"It wasn't that great…"
"You pout too much Wheeler. Get over that I just named your kid."
"Go…fuck yourself."
"You make it way too easy Wheeler. So you know what, I won't say anything and just let you get on with your pouting."
"Will you two please try and get along?"
"I am, I'm actually not the one making it hard."
"You make everything hard!"
"…I could freely go off on that, but I won't since I was requested to get along with you. How about you do the same?"
"…fine…" he's mumbling under his breath. I can take a few guesses on what.
God this stress is killing me. I'm hallucinating things. This day just gets stranger every second. If I didn't know any better I'd say Teá would start flirting with me. …I cringe at that thought.
Whatever…I really need to do something before I really start to lose it.
Few hours later…it's official, I need some sort of release, or I'm going to combust. I either need a bed or someone in bed. Both neither more appealing than the other. I just want one…
I sigh and lean my head back in the chair. What is it that keeps me here? It's definitely not the intellectual conversations. Oh, well…my company can handle itself. …is that really what I'm worried about though?
I straighten in my chair and observe the other occupants in the room. Did Yugi always have that pen? And…holy shit! Did Wheeler just wink at me? …what…the…fuck…? A minute ago he was yelling the ceiling tiles loose…now he's flirting with me? …ok, I need a bed quick…that's just wrong…or is it. Alright, so maybe Wheeler isn't as bad as I always play him. However, it's the brainlessness, act or not.
"Hey Yug, I'm going to go get some fresh air man. I need a cig or something." I watch him walk by and I swear that is the most obvious offer I've ever gotten. He's more see through than the last company I took over. This has a slightly similar possibility, however…this could turn out bad…especially if Yugi's around. The temptation to get rid of this pounding headache is currently stronger than modesty and pride. Hmm…ah, I could always give the game master a game to keep his mind from wandering, or himself for that matter.
"Yugi."
He looks up and ceases playing with his pen. "Err…yes?"
"I need to make a phone call, but I must go outside for it. Could you hold on to this for me?" I hand him my lap top without really waiting for a response. This has to be one of my better plans because he looks overly giddy. "You may do whatever you want." Well… "Except mass around in my work files. They're labeled rather obvious."
"Thank you Seto." He's already wandering around…such a little kid.
"Hmm…this may take a while. So then see you in a few." I turn around and slowly stride to the outside doors. It's time to figure out just what Wheeler's game is. What the hell is he playing at by doing this- "Son of a-"
"Ok, rule number one, no screaming. I'm not that threatening."
What the fuck… "Where the hell are we?"
"What does it look like?"
"I thought there was a no screaming rule." Of course…he's been always hypocrite.
"This is your place."
"Let me direct you to the fact that I rarely get sick or injured, then, answer my question without yelling." Dumbass…
"A room I found."
"I see. And why did you pull me in here?" Obvious, however, perhaps he doesn't know why.
"Oh really! Could I make this anymore straight forward?"
"Maybe, but I thought I would ask just incase you didn't know."
"Yeah, well I'm pretty goddamn sure."
In that case…I advance and lead him into a wall. Let's just say this will be the strangest one night stand I'll ever have.
I go to lean in but he puts a hand on my chest. "What? You can't tell me I'm that intimidating."
"No, but…what about Yug?"
"Handled." I take his wrist away, but he's persistent on drawing this out. "What now?" Patients Seto…even though he invited me.
"This never gets out to Yug, got it?"
It's the most serious I've ever seen him…what could this mean? "I wasn't planning to announce this Wheeler. However, I wouldn't tell Yugi anyway."
"Good."
"Now are you going to shut up, or are we having a conversation?"
"Sorry, I can't do conversations with you. So get on with it."
My question is then…what can he do? "You, ordering me around? I don't think so Wheeler."
LaterI walk out sighing. What the heck was I even thinking? Oh well…I won't ever make that mistake again. Stupid Wheeler…putting moves on me like drunken prom date. Geh…I shudder.
"Alright asshole, I'm going back first." How dare he…I'll get him back later.
"While you're at it, see if you can find your deportment."
"My wha…"
"You might want a dictionary as well. But, excuse me while I actually make a call like I told Yugi I would."
"Yea, yea, knock yourself out…bastard." Reminder, tell my driver to run over blond bitch dog, then back up a few times.
Whatever, he isn't worth the mass amount of effort it would take to clean the scene up.
Now to call Mokuba. I pull out my cell and press the one button I need to get me connected to him. Now, let's see how long it take him to pick up.
"Hey bro! I was just closing up."
"Good, I need a favor. Run over to my office, get any messages, check on those poor excuse for employs, then come over to the hospital."
"Whoa! What? Seto, what happened, is-"
"Nothing's wrong with me." Are you kidding? I've never even had a scratch. "It's Yugi's pregnant butch lesbian."
"Mia? What's wrong with her?"
"…What pregnant didn't you understand Mokuba?"
"She had the kid? Why were you the one taking her?"
"Because I happened to be in the same place."
"Seto? Taking Mia to our hospital?"
What? I'm not that big of a cold heartless fuck. "It wasn't that grand. I won't be on god's waiting list to get into heaven."
"Yeah but…oh fine. Err…who else is there?"
"The lesbian couple, Yugi, Wheeler, and myself." I think that name will haunt me now.
"Joey? You took him too?"
"No, it's his kid, he showed up."
"You let him in?"
"With a bit of regret now."
"Do I want to know?"
"Not really. Listen Mokuba, you can gossip when you get here."
"Alright, alright. See you in a few."
"Hmm…" I turn off the cell and proceed to the rest of the dreary company.
"What took you so long jerk?"
I raise an eyebrow. Now he's name calling. What a child… "If you must know, Wheeler, I was talking to Mokuba. Is there some issue in your head you wish to announce to the world? "
"Fuck off…"
"…never say that again around me."
"Son of bitch…"
"Joey, stop it. It's not like he did anything to you."
"Yea whatever…"
I hear Yugi sigh. He gets up and brings me over my laptop. "Thank you Seto." It's that damn smile again…
"Why are you thanking me? You held it."
"Yes, well thank you any ways." If he keeps smiling like that…
"Hmm…fine. Your welcome…"
"You said you were talking to Mokuba…is he coming here too?"
"For a while. I asked him to check up on my business. I have a bunch of fools working for me these days."
"I'm sorry to hear that."
"Oh, he probably thinks they're idiots, but they're probably smart. He's just critical."
"Well compared to you they're smart."
"Just…! God! You're so freaking-"
"Hold that pathetic insult while I answer my phone." Who's calling, I thought Mokuba was taking care of things. "Seto here."
"Kaiba boy, I'm surprised to reach you."
Holy shit it's him. "What the hell do you want."
"Oh, well, I was told of your noble deed. I wanted to congratulate you."
"Quit being a smart-ass and tell me what you want."
"Nothing Kaiba boy. I'm insulted you think I always want something from you."
"Uh…I'm not in the mood. And wait…who told you I was here and what I did?"
"Your bother."
"Why?" …god damnit Mokuba.
"Because I called earlier."
"For?"
"It doesn't matter now. It seems you have everything under control. So then, I take my leave. Tell Yugi boy and all them hi and well done. Good luck Kaiba boy, keep up the noble deeds."
…What…?
"Who was that Seto?"
"……" I shake my head and turn to Yugi. "Pegasus. And before you ask why, I have no fucking clue. He babbles worse than this idiot, but some how it ends up making sense, at least."
"Why I outta-!"
"Seto!"
Finally, it took him long enough. "Why so late?"
"I didn't take that long!"
"Fine, now what's going on?"
"Here's your messages. Umm…one of them is from-"
"I know, he called." And now we ignore it happened. Let's see…
"Wow already? Geez…oh! I'm sorry! Hey Yugi, hey Joey!"
"Hi."
Scary when people say things in unison. Especially those two.
"So how's the new baby."
"Great! His name is Robert on the suggestion of your bother." Yugi…always the informant.
"Cool, Seto named Mai and Teá's baby. That's awesome! Geez Seto, you're actually beginning to come out of that shell."
"What shell?"
"The one that you always have around people. You're actually being social!"
"I'm a very sociable person. I talk to my clients and workers personally."
"Only if it's work related. You did something that involved outside talk."
"Whatever Mokuba."
"And there he goes again. If you call him out on it he gets all pissed and pouty."
"It's sacrilege to even think I'd ever pout." That's Wheeler's job.
"You have your own way of pouting, trust me. I'm your brother."
"Yes, and I'm yours. So unless you want a few things to slip out of my mouth in front of your friends, I suggest you let this conversation go."
"Ok, ok! Gosh…they're your friends too."
"Some of them…"
"Oh shut up!"
"I didn't say names now did I Wheeler?"
"Go…fuck a duck."
Ah, the creativity. I love it.
"Aw, come on! A baby was just born and everyone's all mopey and depressing."
"Mokuba, use proper english."
"Oi…"
"Hey, it's Mokuba!"
"Hi Teá! How's Mai?"
"Doing well, tired as I'll get out but happy."
I'm going to be here for a while. Mokuba must get in his yearly gossip with these people. I sit down and sigh. Nothing done at all today. No matter what, I don't care if the other one gets pregnant and has to birth the baby on the street, I will get this done. I am not going to waste my entire day one these people again. Though…it wasn't exactly…that bad…hmm…
LaterFinally, a bed. I don't care if I sleep in my trench coat, I just need to lie down.
Such a long day. And reminder to never get involved with Wheeler in anyway shape or form.
"Bro!"
Oh now what…no more pregnant people… "What Mokuba?"
I open my eyes and watch as he peaks through the door. "You have a guest at the door."
"How many times have I told you not to wink at me like that?"
"But, but…no fair!"
Uh…that look…what is it about little bothers that makes it so you can't say no or stay mad? "Whatever Mokuba. Who is it?"
"Come down and see!"
He's way too perky for this time of night.
I sigh and get up. Who would come see me at this hour and make Mokuba so friggin' bouncy.
"Good evening Seto."
Oh good god it's Yugi and that damn perfect smile of his. Mokuba…geh…I give up. "……" I'm lost for words this is so messed up. Crap…why…? "Err…good evening Yugi. What's the matter…don't tell me the other one is having a kid."
"No, no, I just…you dropped this or left this…"
This day really has taken a toll on me. I almost lost my freaking cell phone. …in my own place but none the less I never forget anything.
"Thank you. I probably would have slit throats if I couldn't find this." I grab the phone, and it's only for a second my finger tips brush against his hand, but I suddenly feel this wave of energy passing through my body. …what the fuck was that?
"Well, I wouldn't want you slitting throats so I'm glade I saw it before I left."
"I see…are…the happy parents still there?" They should be, but…wait why am I making such an effort to keep talking with him?
"Yeah, is…that a problem?"
"No. I'd expect them to be resting."
"Well, Mai's asleep and Teá's looking after the baby. So everything's fine."
"That's good to hear. Has Wheeler calmed down?"
"Heh, yeah, but he was steamed a bit…"
"I'm sure." Always whining and bitching about something.
"By the way, I'm sorry for all this…I'm sure you had a ton to do and-"
"Don't worry about it. One, it wasn't your fault, and two, whether my employs are imbeciles or not, they can handle things when I'm not there. Actually…the handle things better when I'm not there." Because, god forbid, they have to use their instincts. Dumbass sheep…
"Still, it was exteremly nice of you to do that and then stay. I know it didn't seem like it, but Teá and Mai appreciated it a lot…I did as well, so…" he pauses for a brief moment then for some reason getting closer to me and putting a hand on my shoulder which is far enough, but now…kissing my cheek.
Such…an innocent gesture…I never would have…seen that coming from Yugi…I…
"Sorry…heh, you probably don't like touching too much."
The sad thing is he's right but…that felt…nice…maybe…
"Err…Seto?"
"Hmm…oh…" stay focused. "No, just wasn't expecting it that's all…"
"Well anyway, I should let you get some sleep. This wasn't exactly cake for anyone so…good night Seto."
"……" I actually look at him and give a small smile. "Good night, Yugi."
Chapter Five: Blissful Ignorance- FinishedLike, oh my god! I am so very sorry people! This took so long to update but now I'm finished and hopefully this will keep you busy for a while. I've been SO busy with school, people leaving me left and right, confusing love triangles and all sorts of crappy stuff…oh god help me… :bursts out laughing: anyway, thank you for being patient.

Seto: Oh whatever, just shut up and get on with the next pathetic chapter.
You're so mean to me… ,( …anyway, Kuma kisses everyone. Lots of love and luck! Ryu .
