Chapter two: Lift me up, I'll falling

Day two, well actually it had been almost a week since Joey's life was turned upside down. Within a month he had to have oral surgery and acquired a new boyfriend. HIs feelings were new and exciting but also confusing and conflicting. On top of all his problems his jaw hurt so freaking much all the time he couldn't think straight. Today the pain continues to massage his cheeks and it burned along the bottom of his face.

"Yeah, my face hurts, it's like someone is holding my mouth open and sticking giant tooth picks in my jaw." Joey fault back the tears. He couldn't take any more pain pills and beside he hadn't eaten, but his mouth hurt and he couldn't swallow.

"No, how about one of those bear traps and they left it open ... Ouch," Ryou added his comment. The gang were trading pain stories.

"That's really raw man," Yugi shuttered at the thought.

"Well he's always hanging around that Bakura so he's a little sick." Mokuba piped in.

"It feels like someone has a shovel and they are digging for gold in your mouth, constantly pounding . . ., "Mokuba added.

"Wow you've been there," Joey tried to smile as he wrote the message on a slip of paper, it hurt to talk.

"Anyways Kaiba said you'll be going home today and he's fixed up a bedroom for you."

"What is he insane, forget it Mokuba," Frustrated Joey jumped out of the bed and the pain made him dizzy but he didn't say anything. He was to freakin' mad.

"But Joey you need someone close, the stitches are still bleeding . . . and you're weak."

"I Know but I got my principles and they don't including living with Kaiba," Joey gathered his clothes into one heap and walked into the bathroom to dress.

"Nii-sama isn't going to like this," Mokuba flipped open his cell and tex his brother who happen to be on his way down. He'd stopped at the florist and picked up a few dozen roses well actually four since he knew that was Joey's favorite number. Kaiba had yellow sticky notes posted in the strangest places, so he'd remember every little detail about his mutt.

Kaiba stormed into the room and handed Mokuba the roses which covered his face. He looked around and since Joey was not visible he turned his glare to the gang. Ryou pointed to the bathroom.

"He's dressing," Ryou whispered.

"Joey get out here right now!" Kaiba's voice filled the room with thunder which was the wrong thing to do, because The BrowneyedShamer wasn't far away. Before Kaiba could call out the mutt's name again she appears with both hands on her hip eyes locked with Kaiba.

"I know you're not insane so what gives," she asked.

"This is none of your business, why don't you go and stick someone with a needle," Kaiba side stepped the arrogant nurse.

"Oh I've got the perfect candidate and he's looking right at me," The BrowneyedShamer raised a hypodermic needle at Kaiba's neck and he flinched.

"You wouldn't dare," Kaiba could feel her breath on his neck. Mokuba held his and Ryou turned to the bath room door. It sounded like a bomb exploited.

"Shit . . . . it's Joey," Kaiba pushed pass the needle wheeling crazy nurse and pushed open the door which proved a little difficult because Joey had fallen against it.

Kaiba looked like a knight kneeing next to his love and with care he lifted him up and carried him to the bed, but he refused to leave his side and watch The BrowneyedShamer examined Joey with expert care.

"He's just fainted, still a little weak," she tucked the covers around his neck and checked his temperature again. "Why were you dressing in the bathroom anyway and what's going on? I want answers."

Joey opened his eyes completely and waited for the fog to clear. "Get your mitts off me; I'm not your property."

"Damn it Joey, I'm not the monster here," Kaiba would never admit defeat, but he'd been gentle with the boy and had no intention of hurting him.

"You got mad and fainted, that's the short version." Yugi shouted out.

"Listen I don't have time for this, Joey you're coming home with me and that's the end. After you've healed then leave if my home is so distasteful I won't beg you to stay, do whatever the hell you want, it's over."

"Kaiba, you don't mean that," Mokuba whispered. "He's just a little stress and in pain."

"Chill, Mokuba it's my face that aches, my mind is just fine," Joey searched Kaiba's face for the truth, but he'd already turn toward the door to go.

"Listen you'll have me to protect yeah from the big bad monster," The BrowneyedShamer spoke. "Hey no more wondering around without aid, you could have broke your neck."

Kaiba stopped in his track, but he didn't turn around; it was difficult to stop the chill from running up his spine. He loved the blond-haired idiot with all his might.

"I just wanted to take a shower and get dressed," Joey pouted, he felt miserable and very small. A hug would have been nice from anybody and he realized for the first time he wanted Kaiba's approval.

"Look I'll have a limo waiting to take you anywhere you want, just don't be a fool. While you're at the house I'll stay in town at my penthouse. Mokuba and the general will be with you," Kaiba straighten the collar on his long white vest and gracefully left the room.

"Nii'-sama . . . . " Mokuba whispered to his brother's retreating back. "Nii-sama brought these flowers for you; I'll put them in water."

"Jerk," Joey buried his face under the covers.

"Ok, chop, chop, we've got lots of work to do," the General or The BrowneyedShamer barked out. "Yugi pack his bag and Ryou clean out the drawers."

"Ah . . . . don't worry about that stuff Kaiba has a special crew that will clean out the room," Mokuba volunteer. "Joey I'm so sorry, but will you please come?"

"Sure, beside I ain't got nothin' better going on," the blond whispered.

"See you guys down stairs, I need to talk to Joey for a moment. Joey my dear if you don't want to go you can stay at one of the group homes there's other boys your age and lots of activities." The BrowneyedShamer fidgeted with his shirt.

"No I'll be fine, it's just so strange."

"Hey I got a little friend for you." BrowneyedShamer pulled out the weirdest stuffed animal he'd ever seen. She called it a snuggle-monster. Immediately Joey hugged the little monster and closed his eyes, images of Kaiba flashed through his mind.

"You can rest a bit after we get to the mansion and tonight we will celebrate with mashed potatoes and creamy applesauce." The nurse couldn't help it she smiled at the blond and *ran around in a circle happily*

"Going to a mansion! Going to a mansion! Hehehehehehe. . . . " she always made him feel good.

"Thanks, I'd be so alone without you," Joey laughed but a fit started and he started to cough up blood," his nurse and friend patted his back and held the metal pan near his chin.

"Ahhhhhhhhh . . . . This is disgusting; I can't believe this is inside my body. . . . gross man. . . ."

"Oh I forgot to tell you kid, tomorrow you'll be on your own for the evening I've got this special client coming in. He's an old friend of the family, can't stand his ass, but I'm his nurse. So I've got to check up on him for my dad's sake. I promise it won't take long and it will be the last time he interferes in my life." The nurse smirked and had no fear for what she had planned.

"Yeah, this is a breeze, but the storm is ahead," Joey's mind drifted off the pills made him loopy and he escaped to dream world which included Kaiba, his secret.

Once they arrived at the mansion Kaiba waited at the door and without asking took the sleeping mutt to his room, well actually it was across from Kaiba's the best room next to his own. He had to see Joey one more time before he left. No one said a word not even the nurse. She only smiled and left the CEO alone.

Just like a puppy he snuggled deeply into Seto's hard chest and smiled at the pleasant scent that radiated from his freshly showered body. He replaced his warmth with the snuggle-monster and left Joey alone in the huge bed.

Kaiba assembled everyone in the game room and spoke, "No wild parties while I'm away and I expect Joey to have ever thing he needs and that mean rest. If he falls or gets hurt in any way I'll never forgive you and if he hears about this conversation you're all dead!"

On those words Kaiba left. Tomorrow would be the start of hell on earth; somehow he had to find a way to make it right.
