Hannah: "Hey you guys, a quicker update yeah? Aren't you guys glad that I didn't take me three months this time? Anyways, Bakura?"
Bakura: "If Hannah owned Yu-gi-oh, Harris Ford would not make another Indiana Jones movie…"
Chapter Eighteen:
Seto Kaiba held someone tight in his arms. That sentence alone would have made anyone pass out. But it wasn't just any someone. It was someone with blonde hair, honey eyes, and delicate pink lips. It was someone named Joey Wheeler. He could feel the pup shaking uncontrollably in his arms. He felt sorry for him. For what he had been through and for what he was going through now. He swore to himself and to Joey that he would help and never leave his side. Seto loosened his arms around Joey. The poor puppy whined at the loss. Seto felt bad but this had to be done. He lifted Joey's chin till they were eye to eye.
"Tell me Joey, how many lines?"
Joey tried to lower his head, but Seto held tight.
"Tell me Joey…"
"Eight."
"Eight lines? That is quite a lot… Well… Here you go…"
Seto opened the bag and poured some out on the nightstand. He evenly displaced seven exact lines on the surface. He sat back and watched the pup work. He was oddly curious to how it went. He had an idea but there was nothing like seeing it in action to learn exactly what went on. He watched as Joey's eyes lit up. He watched as the pup hastily reached into his pocket and drew out a one-dollar bill. In his excitement, he managed to drop the dollar-bill, pick it up and bang his head on the nightstand. Seto had to contain some worry. If the pup was this anxious about it, he must be seriously addicted.
"Are you going to watch?"
Seto was snapped out of his thoughts by a timid voice.
"What?"
"I asked, are you going to watch…"
Kaiba's answer was one word.
"Yes."
Joey nodded his head and sulkily went back to his work. He rolled up the dollar-bill and put it in his right nostril. He put the tube at the end of the first line and sniffed, dragging the paper up the line. He leaned his head back and sniffed. He did the same for the second, third and fourth. He leaned back on the bed and moaned. Kaiba was fascinated by it.
"Is it really that good?"
Joey looked over to Kaiba sitting next to him and smiled.
"Does it look like it is?"
Kaiba just smirked.
"Looks like heaven."
Joey laughed.
"They say heaven is white."
Kaiba chuckled.
Joey went back to do the other lines and Kaiba watched intensely. He didn't know why he was so fascinated by such an act. He just was. Joey continued to do the fifth and sixth. He was about the do the seventh when suddenly, the paper was taken out of his hand. He thought he had dropped it until he saw it in Kaiba's hand.
"Kaiba, give it-"
He stopped mid-sentence when he saw Kaiba lean forward and put the dollar-bill to his right nostril and snort up the last line of coke. Joey's eyes were as wide as a sand-dollar. Kaiba leaned his head back and sniffed, just as Joey had done.
"Kaiba, what the hell…"
Kaiba just looked over at him and grinned.
They sat in stunned silence for a couple of minutes before Kaiba moaned.
"You're right… Feels like heaven."
Joey just blinked in amazement. He couldn't believe that Kaiba had done it. Mr. Perfect-money-bags and just snorted cocaine. Suddenly, Kaiba gagged.
"Uck! Is it supposed to taste that bad!"
Joey nodded.
"Mucus runs down the back of your throat. You're supposed to have a drink with you."
Kaiba nodded.
"Kaiba… Why did you do it?"
Kaiba looked over.
"Do what?"
Joey pointed to the bag of coke.
"I wanted to see how it felt. You looked like you were having a good time, and I wanted to see what you were feeling. Are you angry with me for doing it?"
Joey shook his head.
"I'm just shocked, that's all. You did the same thing you came here to help me with."
Kaiba turned his head in shame.
"I know…"
Hannah: "That was it. You didn't expect Kaiba to do that did you? Nope, you didn't! See you next time!"
