Kaiba pulled back. What happens next? He thought about it. He really didn't know how to answer.

'I…I don't know.' He sat down, leaning against the bed. 'It'd be the same of last time. I can't loose Mokuba…'

'I'd never expect you to. I mean, with us. What…are we?' Kaiba rubbed his temples at the question, he hated all of this relationship crap.

'I dunno. What do you want us to be?'

'I want us to be something.' Joey pondered on his own answer.

'I guess that's ok. But we need to talk about some stuff first.'

'Are you a fucking woman or something Kaiba?'

'Coming from you? You just started a relationship talk.' Joey opened his mouth to protest before snapping it shut again. He shrugged in agreement. 'The drugs, Joey.'

'What about them?'

'It needs to stop.'

'Why?'

'I know you're a dumb mutt, but come on, don't be stupid.'

'Kaiba, it's been 2 years…what? You think you come along and I magically don't need them anymore?'

'You never needed them to start with.'

'I did.'

'You were stronger than that. You were so much better than that.'

'I'm the same now.'

'You're not. You don't even look the same.'

'Kaiba I…' The brunet cut him off, glaring.

'You're not strong enough to come off drugs yet you think we can be together? You think someone as weak as yourself can handle the stress of blackmail and death and…'

'Hold on! I'm not fucking weak Kaiba, it's not like that and you fucking know it.'

'Do I? My mind was never weak enough to submit to that crap in the first place.'

'You fucking smoke! It's no different!'

'It's totally different. I haven't lost an obscene amount of weight.'

'Cos you were already stupidly thin!'

'So were you. Cut them out Joey, it's them or me. That's final.' The blond flung himself backwards against the bed.

'God dammit Kaiba!' he screamed clutching his hair, 'You really don't fucking get it do you? Withdrawals and cravings and trying to get off that shit, it's not fucking easy. Don't you think I tried? It's fucking hard you inconsiderate son of a…'

'I'm inconsiderate? You fucking live here for no cost and you're going behind my brothers back to do something illegal. Do you have any idea how Mokuba feels about that sort of shit? No? I didn't think so. You're selfish Joey. Cut the crap. I know you better than this. You can stop anytime you want. You just don't want to.'

'Whatever Kaiba, you don't know me at all.'

'No I guess not. You're a lot weaker and more selfish than the mutt I knew.'

'You never knew him.'

'Wrong again, Mutt.'

'Wanna bet?'

'I saw you in duellist kingdom and battle city. You saved people. You gave in to help others. You took their needs over your own pride and wants. You were strong. You were healthy and you weren't on that stuff then.'

'I had friends then Kaiba. I had support. Something I haven't had in 2 years.'

'What stopped you making new friends? You aren't antisocial. You have me to help you off it now. It's your choice. Pick wisely.'

'I'll consider it. But it isn't easy. They've been my support for 2 years…' Kaiba walked to the bathroom, pulling the drugs from the cabinet. He threw them in a bag.

'Tomorrow, they're going. All of them. I don't give a fuck about your opinion anymore.' He took the bag and left. Joey watched in disbelief. What the fuck just happened? Seriously?
