Kaiba watched Caylee as he saw the one crystal tear fall down her face.
He could see the pain that was present on her face and the mask of happiness that replaced it when Mokuba returned with a pair of nurses' scrubs.
"Thanks Mokuba," she said as she used the crutches to maker her way to the bathroom to change.
"Do you know where Caylee is going to stay after this? The doctor said it would be a month before the cast could be taken off," Mokuba asked.
"I think she has no idea herself," Kaiba claimed.
Kaiba watched his little brother as Mokuba stared at the door.
"Can she stay with us?" Mokuba asked all of a sudden.
"What?"
"Come on Seto! She has nowhere else to go and its not like she's going to do any harm. It'll only be til she gets her cast off," Mokuba said pouting and giving him the puppy eyes.
Kaiba just stared at him, while the eyes got bigger with little tears beginning to come to the surface.
"All right, enough with the eyes. She can stay," Kaiba cried.
"Yay!" Mokuba cried, jumping for joy.
Caylee came out not long after and smirked at Mokuba who was still jumping, yet to have seen her.
"Did you give him sugar or something?" she laughed.
Mokuba spun around and then blushed at being caught Kaiba couldn't help but smirk a little at him being caught by her in the act.
"You would think I had," he smirked.
Mokuba blushed harder and poked hi tongue at him. Caylee just giggled at the exchange between them. Kaiba felt himself blush at her giggle – it was cute.
'Wait, did I just think cute? I've been couped up the hospital too long,' Kaiba thought angrily to himself.
"Caylee, you have nowhere to go right?" Mokuba asked.
Caylee looked at him, like he had grown another head.
"Um, yeah I don't," she declared.
"Would you like to stay with us?"
Caylee gasped and looked at Kaiba. Excitement, happiness and joy were portrayed in her eyes, but he would also see a twinge of fear.
"Can I really?" she whispered.
Kaiba nodded at her.
Crystal tears fell down her face and she covered her with her hands. Kaiba moved forward, afraid that he had caused more sadness for her.
"Yes," she whispered, "I would like to stay with you. I will try and repay . . ."|
"Your not going to repay us," Kaiba stated.
"What? Why?" she asked in shock.
"You need help and we're happy to help; you just concentrate on getting better," Mokuba exclaimed.
Caylee nodded at them.
Kaiba coughed and the two of them looked at him.
"Well Mokuba, since you were the one who suggested she will stay with us, she'll be your responsibility,"
Caylee grinned at him.
"Don't worry about us Seto, we won't cause any trouble," she smirked at him, grabbing Mokuba into a hug.
"Why do I have the feeling that I'm going to regret this?" he muttered.
Caylee laughed and winked at him, causing Kaiba to blush and look away.
Grabbing her possessions, Caylee made her way through the door, struggling to use the crutches properly.
Kaiba sighed before picking Caylee up bridal style.
"Hey, what the?" Caylee cried in surprise dropping the crutches and her bag.
"Mokuba grab her things," he muttered looking over at his brother.
Kaiba could tell that Mokuba was having difficulties not laughing at them but he let it slide continuing down the hall.
Caylee had put her arms around his neck tightly and looked up at him with searing emerald eyes and pouting.
"You better not drop me," she said pouting.
"The only place I'm dropping you is in a wheelchair," he growled, trying to look anywhere but her eyes.
Mokuba finally burst out laughing.
"What's so funny?" Caylee said back to Mokuba.
"You two bickering like a married couple," he said snickering.
Kaiba felt himself blush at his little brother's words as well.
"Oh shut up Mokie," she muttered.
"Hey!" Mokuba exclaimed.
They both snickered at him. Kaiba noticed that Caylee had laid her head against his shoulder. He had to resist the urge to look down at her.
The sooner her got her to the mansion – that way he could avoid her and the unknown emotions that she stirred up inside of him.
"Whoa, this place is bigger that Domino Mall," Caylee exclaimed looking around the foyer of Kaiba's mansion.
She couldn't believe the size of it – it looked big enough to house a large community!
"Wait til you see your room," Mokuba grinned.
She knew she was going to be in for a shock when she saw her room. That was until she saw the large staircase and knew that there was no way in hell she was walking up and down the stairs with her leg.
"Please tell me you have guest rooms or an elevator or at least a couch in a living room I can sleep on because I am not going up and down those stairs with this leg," she exclaimed.
She heard a groan behind her and turned to see Seto roll his eyes – the movement made her blush, suspecting that she had just made a fool of herself.
"There are rooms on the bottom floor for you to stay. I wasn't going to force you to do anything, you make me sound like a slave driver," he moaned.
"I wouldn't be surprised," she muttered.
"What was that?" Seto growled.
"Nothing," Caylee cried with a smile making her way forward.
Even though they were a few meters apart, they both sighed at the same thought.
'It's going to be one long month,' they thought.
