To my readers: hello everyone I am sorry for this long wait and hopefully haven't given up on me, in my profile I placed an annoucement that this story and eyes of a brother were on hold, and sadly they are. However I resently stumbled on the fact that I hadn't posted for a while and came to realizing that I had written three more chapters to this story without even realizing it. My editor DH has brought it to my attention that we needed to put the chapters up and I appoligize for the wait once more. Anyways here are the next two chapters to this long awaited story.

Chapter 7

Why did you leave?

The car was silent all the way as Seto drove his daughter and now revealed thought to be dead son in law up the hill towards Kisty's and Josh's old home that they used to share. Kisty kept an angry look on her face she could not believe it all this time thinking the man she loved was dead only to find out that he was alive and taking her to dinner only a few minutes before.

Seto just kept his eyes on the road wanting to strangle Josh for what he did; he was hoping that Kisty would give him permission to kill the dead beat now. However Seto knew that his daughter would do no such thing but would she take Josh back or would she keep him from little Ally, or would everything turn back into what it was?

Josh sat there in the car running his brain to death about what he was going to say or do about everything. Five years ago, he faked his death so that he could spare Kisty and his no, it was only Kisty's daughter not his anymore he gave parental rights up the moment he walked out the door that unhappy afternoon.

The house was the same two story little place it was five almost six years ago, with it's concealed from view of the road and trees everywhere and large green yard it was s surprise that the place was still well maintained for being abandoned six years ago. However, the house had been put to use by Mokuba and his wife Lisa when they both needed to escape from their two terrorizing twin sons, and it was in their backyard to begin with.

Stopping the car Seto got out first, he figured that he should check the house before telling Kisty and Josh to come inside or that Kisty wanted to yell at Josh some more, Seto did not know which one his daughter was going to do first.

Josh took a deep breath and looked at Kisty as he sat behind her in the backseat thinking about who was going to break the silence first him or his wife, no he had to stop thinking that and just call Kisty his former lover.

Kisty kept her eyes forward her mind now going a mile a minute so many questions, so many things she wanted to do some humane others deadly. Slowly without her control, she opened her mouth, "Josh," she said slowly looking at him with her sad blue eyes, "Why did you leave your daughter behind?"

Josh was shocked by the question, it was not, where have you been, why leaving her, nor I am going to kill you but the first question was about her daughter wait Kisty said "our" did she really consider him the father of little Ally.

"I did it to protect you both, I left Ally because I didn't want to see you both killed by this group my father and I have been tracking for the last 6 years, I couldn't tell you without risking Ally's life, I didn't want to watch you both die," Josh answered without thinking.

Kisty turned away, opened her door to the car, and got out, Josh followed after, "It wasn't like I had a choice it was that or watch you die. I couldn't let that happen to Ally, she didn't need to see you killed nor me in front of her, they would have left her to die alone without out us," Josh quickly said.

Shaking her head, "Sadly, Ally had to watch her mother die, she had to watch me die day by day after I thought you were dead, slowly and painfully from a broken heart and then you sneak back into our lives as if you never left acting as if…no saying that you were protecting us, that doesn't cut it Josh not for a second! Not with me and defiantly not my family or daughter!" she exclaimed with tears threatening to pour out.

Seto stood on the porch, "Kisty go inside for a minute you need to calm down, and call Ally, she worried about you," he said holding the cordless phone out to her. Looking at Josh and quickly walking over to her father taking the phone and heading into the house.

Josh took a deep breath once Kisty was inside he knew that his father in law was going to give it to him but Seto didn't even need to open his mouth, "Let me have it Kaiba, I deserve it all of it, every punch, kick, and word you say. I walked away from my family, friends even…even the two things that meant the world to me and anything I say now will just make it worse. I messed up everything, all of it."

"Your, dam right you fucked up big time, Josh, remember what I told you when you were going to marry Kisty, I told you if you break her heart I would kill you along with the assistant's of everyone else," he said in a cold voice, "But I am not going to do it. Why, because looking at you alive mean that you have to live with what you did to your wife, and child, no matter what Josh, Ally is still your daughter, I just need to look at you to know that you are ashamed of taking off and pulling the stunt you did, your voice also gives it away. Also the fact that you say you can handle what ever I say means you knew that this day was coming…probably have been for a while even with contacts on I could tell it was you just looking at what you did to yourself just to say you were protecting your family doesn't fit. I am not going to kill you or hurt you without Kisty getting her say in first; also, I will not kill you because to the rest of the world Josh Jason Devilen does not exist. Do I make myself clear?" Seto spoke with a firm and ice cold voice one he had not used in a very long time.

Josh nodded his head, "Yes sir," he said calmly then looking at he ground, "there is nothing I can say or do to change the past which is suppose to be left behind but when it is as painful as it has been for Kisty. I know that nothing I say or do from now on will get her to forgive me for what I did to her and Ally."

Kisty was standing next to the door with the phone in hand she didn't dial her uncle's home yet, she wanted to make sure that her father didn't kill Josh just yet. As angry as she was she knew Josh wouldn't do something without good reason what ever it may be, slowly Kisty's mind wandered back to the restaurant when Josh quickly explained what was going on before her father showed up.

Flash back to outside the restaurant

"Kisty are you alright?" asked Josh while he was still undercover.

"Yes I am fine, but when were you going to tell me that you know where my thought to be dead husband would be?" she snapped.

Josh took a breath, "What are you talking about I don't know…."

"Save it Josh, I know it's you…Your contact came flying out when that guy punched you, and…I can't even handle this too think that you could make a fool out of me," Kisty began to walk away at that point.

"Kisty wait, your right it is me, but I have a reason you see my dad he needed help and there was this gang that was going to hurt you and Ally unless I faked my death, you have to believe me," Josh said quickly.

"That jerk, you wanted to help Duke your biological father who wanted me dead since the day my uncle passed away…." She snapped.

End flashback

Kisty came out of her flash back and marched upstairs leaving her heels in the stair way for someone to find. Hitting the phone numbers to call up Mokuba's house she heard a ring then Lisa's voice came over the phone, "Hello?" she said.

Taking a deep breath, "Aunt Lisa its Kisty I would..."

"Oh my god Kisty what happened? Are you all right? Did your father find you, is everything ok?" Lisa shot out questions before they could be answered wrestling was heard over the phone then Mokuba's voice came on to it.

"Kisty, you don't have to answer that, just this one is you alright?" he said quickly.

"Yes Uncle Mokuba I am fine, Dad is with me, and my date has a secret identity that I will not tell you over the phone I just called to check up on Ally," Kisty said.

A small voice was heard in the background followed by, "Ally get back to bed your mother is fine," from Ann, Kisty's stepmother.

"NO I want to talk to mommy, please Mokie can I have the phone to talk to her?" said Ally worried voice.

Mokuba sighed, "one second I promise you will get to talk to her…"

"Uncle Mokuba put me on the phone with Ally she won't stop until you do," interrupted Kisty.

"Mommy, are you ok, is Jason alright, how was your date, someone tried to break into my room but I am ok, just a little worried about you, Papa was worried sick and had his cell phone on his ear when the guy broke into my room and left suddenly. I am fine, not scared just shaking, when are you coming home?" Ally asked like a frightened 5 year old.

"I will be home soon sweetie, you try to get some sleep your grandfather and I are fine my date is another story but I will explain later, you just stay with your uncle and do what he says along with your aunt and Grams got it," said Kisty in a stern tone.

"Yes, Mommy, night, night," said Ally before handing the phone to Mokuba.

"You should be able to put her to bed just keep one of the twins near by and she will be fine," said Kisty to Mokuba once she heard him take phone.

Seto walked into the house with Josh behind him, as Kisty came down the stairs a few minutes later, her blue crystal colored eyes look at her father's sending an unspoken message to let her have a shot at Josh for a few moments. Seto disappeared by heading upstairs to get everything ready if they had to leave in a hurry.

Kisty looked at Josh in the doorway, "Have a seat and shut the door I am going to have to hear you tell me what the hell is going on," she said in a dark tone of voice as she motioned towards the couch.

Josh walked over to the couch and sat down; it still had its uncomfortable feeling to it that it lost so many years ago. Kisty walked over to the couch and stood there next to him and the coffee table.

"Where do you want me to begin?" Josh asked looking nervous and rubbing his hands together as if trying to keep warm.

Kisty closed her eyes, and did something she knew she was going to have to explain later, but before she acted on her emotions she sat down next to Josh, even though an hour ago she wanted to kill him, and before Josh could say anything to start talking he felt Kisty quickly pull him into a deep passionate kiss.
