Prologue

Mokuba's POV

I sighed as I heard the tic-tacking of my brother's computer keyboard as he worked again. It was a Friday night and I was worried about Seto. Just a couple of weeks ago, Joey and Seto broke up, again; just like they did two months before that break up. Me and the gang were getting pissed off at that because we all had to keep an eye on the two; namely on Seto so he wouldn't work himself into exhaustion, again.

I had just finished talking to Mai, who had become somewhat of mine and Seto's big sister (1) since Joey and Seto first got together. Mai, before that, was Joey's girlfriend for a short while; they broke up finding that their relationship wasn't going to work. Soon after, somehow, someway, unknown to everyone but the couple themselves and seemingly Mai, Joey and Seto got together. At first, I thought it was weird that the couple was together and that Seto had such a tight friendship with Mai (2), but got used to it and soon looked up to Mai as a big sister since she was so kind to me and my brother.

Joey became somewhat of an older brother to me also, which helped me accept the relationship that he was having with my brother.

During the beginning of the relationship, I started to notice a change in my brother; he seemed more relaxed, and happier. He spent more time out of the office than in and spent more time with me. Joey came up with ideas of how me and my brother could spend time together and Joey often joined us. Then, came the time that the couple first broke up; that happened over a year ago.

I was disappointed, but didn't think much of it; then, couldn't stop thinking about it when I saw what my brother was going through. Seto was going through depression; he became fatigued immediately and worked constantly. That time was when Mai first stepped in; she was the only one who could come in and drag Seto out of his office and march his ass straight to bed. She was a really good cook and made Seto eat to the point where he felt like his stomach would blow up; Seto had an abnormally fast metabolism system, so anything he ate really didn't do anything, and his prescriptions for whatever they were for weren't helping any.

Yugi and the gang during the time of Joey's and Seto's relationship became Seto's friends. When Mai was out of town, she normally enlisted the help of Tristan and/or Duke to come help out on keeping an eye on me and Seto. Yami and the other yamis surprisingly became good friends of Seto and they often tried everything in their power (not their Shadow power) to make sure Seto was healthy and got enough sleep. Yugi and the other hikaris were right by their sides helping out and making sure their yamis didn't loose their patience with Seto.

All in all, I was thankful for them for helping out; but at that moment that Friday night, I was pissed off at all of them, especially Joey, who at the time seemed to be the one who broke off the relationship that time. Mai was out of town to who knows where at another tournament; Yugi, Ryou, and Malik were apart of the school's debate team, so they were out of town and off to another to debate with other school, their yamis were with them to cheer them on. Tristan and Duke were off helping Joey fix up his apartment; Joey's father recently passed away, but he didn't mind all that much since he was an abusive bastard.

Joey was surprised that when his father passed away, he inherited $50,000 from his father's insurance; he soon found that his father was never aware of it; Joey's mother was the one who signed his father up for the insurance, so she wouldn't have to take care of Joey if his father ever died before he was 18; she held a grudge not only against Joey's father and Joey as well. Serenity was angry and tried to convince her mother to let Joey move in with them; and almost did; but at that time, Joey was still with Seto and didn't want to move away. But, now that they were broken up, I was worried that Joey might take that offer that Serenity had his mother offer; but was even more surprised when Joey still went and bought an apartment.

Seto wanted to offer Joey shelter at the mansion, which I would have really loved; Joey could be there all the time to make sure Seto was alright and take care of him; but then the break up occurred that chance when down the drain. It had been only a couple of weeks ago and already everything had become insane; I just didn't know how insane things were going to get soon enough.

After checking on my brother, knowing that I couldn't convince him to get to bed; I went to my own bedroom and sat at my windowsill to think. As I looked out the window, a sudden flash in the sky caught my eye; I looked up, and saw a shooting star; pressing my nose against the window, I really started thinking.

'I know it's childish…' I thought. 'But, it's better than nothing; maybe it's the gods are giving me some sort of sign.'

I closed my eyes and made my wish.

"I wish…" I said as I thought of my brother. "I wish that there was a way for my brother and Joey to be happy together and stay together. They belong together, I know it."

I opened my eyes and looked up at the sky again, the star, not surprisingly, was no longer in sight. I scoffed and jumped off my windowsill and made my way to bed.

'How stupid of me…' I thought. 'To think that a stupid star could actually grant my wish; but then again, I would do anything for my brother's happiness if possible. But it seems that Joey is the only one who can bring out the true happiness from within my brother.'

I jumped into bed and drew the covers up to my body, soon, I fell into a fitful sleep; completely unaware of the events that would take place the next morning.

Meanwhile with Seto…

Seto's typing suddenly stopped and he groaned in pain, his hands quickly gripped his stomach.

'Oh god, not again…' Seto thought as his stomach throbbed in pain.

For the past few weeks he had been feeling these major pains in his stomach; he didn't know what they were about. When together with Joey, he didn't want to worry his lover; so he didn't tell him about it, he was just content on having Joey at his side. But, now that they weren't together; he could care less what Joey thought at the moment.

"What's happening to me?" Seto whispered as he winced in pain.

Tears came to his eyes as the pain only increased as time passed by; he didn't know if he should go get help, or try to ride out the pain once again. As he thought of that, he thought of Joey.

'I wish he was here now…' Seto thought. 'Even though he doesn't know about the pains, just him being here helps me forget about it.'

Seto pushed back from his desk and fell to the floor on his side, quickly curling up into a ball.

Meanwhile with Joey…

Joey jolted awake from his sleep and wildly looked around; it only took a moment to realize that he was in his room, in his new apartment. It took him another moment to try to remember why he woke up; he was panting slightly and his body was drenched in sweat; suddenly, he remembered.

"Seto…" Joey whispered.

He had a dream about Seto. Seto being in pain, Seto calling out for him to be there with him; he remembered Seto tightly holding onto his stomach in major pain and falling to the floor out of his chair. The problem with in was, he couldn't tell if it was only a dream or a premonition of something.

Slowly, Joey got up out of bed and trudged out of his room towards the kitchen. Once there, he flicked on the light and walked over to the fridge. Normally when he witnessed something frightening, a little snack would help; so, he took out three cups of pudding and crossed the door. He reached over to a little basket of utensils and took out a spoon, then headed to one of the chairs at a card table that served as a dining table.

He sat down and opened the little cup, dug in his spoon and brought it up to his lips, then paused. His mind was swirling around one thing, Seto, his Seto. He put the spoon back into the pudding cup and slumped in his chair.

'Maybe I should call him…' Joey thought. 'Just to see if he's alright.'

Looking across the kitchen, he looked at the phone that was hooked to the wall. He sat down for a few more moments battling his emotions; then suddenly, lunged himself out of his chair and to the phone. He grabbed the handle off the hook and pressed #1 on speed dial to quickly call Seto; the phone rang a few times before Joey came to an annoying message.

"LEAVE ME ALONE WHEELER!" An obviously peeved Seto snarled.

Joey flinched and held phone away from his ear, somehow knowing that he had an encounter with only a message machine, not an answering machine (3). Reluctantly, Joey put the phone back onto the hook and slouched back to his chair.

"I hope he doesn't start cutting again…" Joey mumbled.

Over the period of their relationships, Joey came to know of some of Seto deepest darkest secrets; and so did Mai. Joey knew of the abuse that Gozaburo put both Seto and Mokuba through and of some of the experiments that the bastard had Seto gone through. Before Joey got together with Seto, he noticed a few things about the CEO, which he in turn discussed with Mai; together, the two broke down the seemingly unbreakable emotionless walls he built around himself. Soon, Joey found himself falling for Seto and drifting away from Mai, which soon resulted in their break up; Mai soon pushed Joey to tell Seto how he truly felt; if it wasn't for Mai, Joey and Seto would have never been together to begin with.

The first thing Joey found out about Seto was the fact that he was a cutter, a major one. The first time Joey noticed Seto was a cutter was when Seto ripped the cuff of his school shirt on a loose nail from a chair at school; Seto was quick to hold the fabric, but not quick enough to conceal the wound secrets from Joey. The next day at school, Joey confronted Seto about it; Seto seemed startled by the ordeal, but shoved Joey away. Soon, Joey told Mai about it and she agreed to help Joey with Seto.

One weekend, Mai went over to the Kaiba mansion and see Seto; Joey was surprised that Mai was able to get past the gates, let alone get in and actually speak to the stoic CEO; but, that only lasted a day, because on that day, Mai was banded from being even being within a 100 feet radius of the mansion. She said that she confronted Seto about the wounds herself and actually ripped off one of the sleeves of his shirt; she saw that there were cuts not only on his wrist, but going all the way up his arm and stopping just under his shoulder; needless to say, she was shocked.

That following school week, Joey and Mai basically stocked Seto; soon, Seto thought that we were going to tell his secrets. The way they did it was that they'd follow him during school and Mai after; remember, Mai and Joey have an eight year difference, Mai being older (4). After a few weeks, Seto pounced Joey when no one was looking.

As Joey thought of that moment, a smile came to his face.

Flashback (Joey's POV)

As usual, for the past few weeks; I was following Seto, and surprisingly, no one but me and the CEO seemed to notice. I could easily tell that with each passing day, Seto seemed to get more and more paranoid with having me follow him around; and with the addition with Mai after school, the feeling was only rising.

As he walked, I knew he could feel my eyes staring at the back of his head. But, I didn't know if he felt my stare falter when he took a right turn at a hallway instead of the normal left. I stopped for a moment and thought about that; where was Seto going? Was I in trouble or was I going to be in trouble if I kept following him? A sudden image of the wounds on Seto's arms propelled me to go, so I went.

It took a few moments for me to find Seto; it only took a ratty looking door and a flight of steps to lead me to the school's roof. I didn't see Seto up there at first, but I knew he was there; and it took only a few seconds for him to find me. I knew I was found because I was suddenly pushed backwards by a sudden brown and blue blur and bashed up against the wall behind me. The air in my body was knocked clear out of me and my vision was blurred for a moment; when my vision became straight again, I was looking up into two stormy blue eyes. It took me another moment to gain my breathing back and for me to realize he had his hands tightly gripping the scruff of my shirt and he had me pressed up against the wall.

"What the hell is your problem!" Seto snarled. "Why are you and that woman following me!"

I looked into his eyes, I saw that they were flashing with both fear and anger, and a little bit of…hope? At the time I wasn't so sure, all I knew was that Seto needed help.

I put my hands on his hands and ripped his from my shirt and held his wrists tight. He looked a little surprised when I did that, shocked when I suddenly ripped the cuffs off his shirt.

"What are you doing?" He yelled as he jumped away from me, he backed away hiding his wrist behind him.

I pushed myself off the wall and walked over to him slowly.

"Seto, you can't hide it anymore!" I said. "Me and Mai know; we want to help you!"

Seto's eyes flashed again, that time I knew I saw hope; but just as quickly as that flash came, it was replaced with pure anger.

"I don't need your fucking help!" Seto said. "You and that bitch better leave me the hell alone or I'll send my guards to deal with the both of you!" With that, he turned on his heel and tried to walk off to another part of the roof.

At that time, my mind was saying go back inside and pretend nothing happened before all of this causes you some major trouble; but my heart told me that Seto was in desperate need of help.

From my spot, I quickly started to follow him; when he noticed, he broke into a little sprint. I ran and jumped on him, sending us both to the ground; I quickly wrapped my arms around his waist and rolled around once so he was on top of me, his back to my body, then I sat up, with him on my lap.

"Let me go you fucked up mutt!" Seto shrieked. "Let me go!" He began struggling, kicking his legs, elbowing me constantly in my stomach and chest.

I on the other hand gripped onto him as tightly as I could, I wasn't going to let go of him, not when he was like this, not when he was in desperate need of help. I kept my grip on him; he kept struggling, for what felt like forever!

Eventually, I could hear him panting; my chest and stomach were in pain from all of the elbowing he did; soon after the panting, his elbowing gradually became weaker and less, the kicking stopped. When his panting was ragged, I gently rested my chin on his shoulder and moved my lips next to his ear.

"I want to help you Seto…" I whispered. "You need me…"

Suddenly, Seto's breath hitched then he let out a harsh sob; his body fully slumped against me and he laid his head on my shoulder and sobbed, his body was shaking with the sobs. I sighed and gently let him go, I gently shifted his body so that he was still on my lap, but his legs were at my side and his cheek rested on my shoulder. I rubbed his back in soft smooth circles and whispered comforting words in his ears.

Little did I know at the time…that that would spark a whole interest between me and Seto.

To be continued…

(1): It was either Mai or Tea, I like Mai better; she'll be an important part in this story; don't worry, there will be no Mai relationships except friendships.

(2): Mai and Joey are two important people in Seto's life; Joey, as well as Mai, knows secrets that no one else knows.

(3): In this story, there is a difference between answering machines and message machines; answering machines you're able to leave a message in; message machines you hear a message, but you won't be able to leave a message.

(4): Yes, that is true information; in the show, Joey was 16, while Mai was 24. In this story, Joey is 17, making Mai 25. Even though I think Seto is older than Joey, I prefer to have both him and Joey at the same age, making Seto a few months older.

Sorry that I put this up a day late, but it's up…

Was this good; was it better than the last story? Or is it too soon to tell? Of course more is on the way, but I would, as usual, like to hear you opinion.

Please send me reviews!
