Title: Lucky the Puppy
All other former tags apply.

Another chappy.  (grins) It's not to far away from the last update is it?  (sweatdrop) Review replies at bottom.


Well, I managed to sneak Lucky into the house again.

I don't think my luck is going to last much longer.

Seeing as Lucky is at the foot of my bed and Mokuba is standing in the door.

Oh. Shit.

Mokuba hasn't seen him yet though, surprisingly, and Lucky slips underneath the bed to where he can't be seen.

Did I bother to mention that I had stressed to Lucky that I didn't want Mokuba to find out about him being here?

Mokuba finally spots me and cautiously pads over to me.

He wants something. I can tell. Some big brother sense or something.

My thoughts sound horrible. At least I'm the only one who can hear them.

I arch one eyebrow as Mokuba just stands in front of me, scuffing his socked toe in a meek manner.

"Setoooo..."

Yep. No doubt about it. He wants something.

"Can we get a pet?"

I blink, not having expected that. Does he know...?

I tilt my head to the side, seeming to think about it. "Depends on what kind of 'pet' you mean."

He shifts from one foot to another. "A cat?"

He's acting guilty. I'm glad I'm sitting. Otherwise I'd be displaying the same movements for him to read.

I lean back--I'm sitting at my desk--and close my eyes. He can read too much through them. "Why a cat?"

Mokuba fidgets a bit more. "Well...I saw this really pretty cat...can we get him Seto? Please?"

Even without opening my eyes I can tell that he's attempting to sway my judgement with the infamous puppy eyes of doom.

I sigh. "Why do I have a feeling that you already bought this 'really pretty cat'?"

"Not bought; rescued."

Pinching the bridge of my nose, I almost want to smile. "How long have you had this cat?"

I can sense him starting to fear what's coming when he says, meekly, "Two days."

I want to laugh. Amusing. This cat and Lucky both became 'family' on the same day then.

I finally open my eyes and see him let out a sigh of relief.

As I said before, he can read me well. Almost too well.

"So Bewd can stay?"

I blink. "Blech..bel..bawhat?"

Mokuba grins, accurately taking my stumbling over the cat's name for an okay. "Just call him 'Blued', Niisama. It's easier." His eyes sparkle as he trots out to the open doorway and calls out for the cat.

However, that cat's not out in the hallway.

Bewd or whatever-it's-name-is is sitting on Lucky's back.

Right behind Mokuba who is still facing out to the hallway.


Review Replies

Nachzes-Black Rider: I'm getting better at the whole 'updating' think, I swear!  I wrote this all last night and have started to type up the next chapter. (grins)
Kalu-Chan78: I wish I could make the chapters longer...but I really can't.  It's kind of hard to explain.  Kind of like something stops my writing halfway into my normal chapters.  First POV is arder for me to type.  Sorry...but maybe that'll let me update more often, ne?
CrossHunt-s: (snickers) Yes, Lucky is smart.  Hopefully I get to the reason why soon.
Kumori Sakusha formerly Saelbu: Was this chappie kawaii as well?  (snickers) I'm enjoying the next one.  That'll be fun.
Rikkune: Thankies! (grins) I'm glad someone else enjoys my stories as well.
HumorNut: Hehe.  All I say is that the rating is going up to PG-13 eventually. (hopefully)
Jen-chan: Here's the next chappie.  (grins) ANd there are more similaritys than you know...
Elusia: Updated! (grins)
Enjeru: Yes, and he actually knows it, which is an odd twist for me to write.
Sapphire Dragons: It's fun to make him Seto instead of Kaiba.  Makes the possibility of having a pet greater.
Silver Wing tamer: In more ways than you know...
anaraz: I'm having fun writing a simpliy 'fluffy' fic.  Or at least mostly fluff.
CaptainInuyasha777: I'm not too swift, but I , ne?

It seems that my chapters for first person POV are half that of third person POV. And next chapter will be at least set partially in Luck's POV. So all will get to see what goes on inside the cute little mutt. X3 Oh, and I'm going to have to bump up the rating to PG-13 soon. I've figured out what to do with Luck'. XD
