Hallo and good evening to you! It's great to know that I can still be effectively suspenseful XD I have AliceandFiby chewing me out every chapter because of my love of leaving you wanting more. It's great to know that I can also make people "hooked" haha. Don't worry, there's more to come! Shall we begin:D
Warning: If you don't like yaoi then turn back now because this is a yaoi fanfic for Yugioh. Also the mature warning is because of Joey's habits and because in yaoi…"stuff" happens between guys, ya know? Also, there's swearing. You've been warned!
Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Yugioh in any way, shape, or form. I just write based on characters and the setting.
Joey watched Kaiba with uncertainty and confusion as they walked down the stairs towards the parking lot. He wasn't quite sure what was going on in Kaiba's head at the moment, which scared the hell out of him. He had so many questions in his mind right now. Had Kaiba read the notebook? Did he know about Joey's feelings? And where the hell were they going right now?! Joey stopped and just stared at him a moment. Kaiba stopped and glanced back at him?
"What? What are you staring at?" Kaiba demanded to know.
"What's going on? Where are we going?" Joey inquired in a mousy tone.
"Out. Come on." Kaiba plainly spoke and continued down the steps with a firm grip on the railing. Joey followed him despite feeling uneasy about just going with Kaiba like this.
Kaiba opened the car doors with the press of a little button hanging on his key ring. He slid into the vehicle and started the car. Joey gazed at the sleek body of the car. Must've been expensive. He thought to himself and grazed the fiber glass body with his finger. Kaiba rolled down the automatic window and glared at Joey. "Are you just going to stare at it all day or are you going to get in?"
Joey could hear the agitation in Kaiba's voice and hurried into the car. He got buckled quickly and leaned back into the seat and slid down in it a little bit. He felt so out of place in such a nice ride. He also felt like an inferior human being when sitting next to Kaiba like this.
"Where we goin'? You gonna tell me now?"
"Just shut up and enjoy the ride, will you?" Kaiba said in an annoyed tone of voice.
Joey closed his mouth tightly and just peered out the tinted glass at the street as the car moved away from his apartment towards an undisclosed location. It wasn't a very long drive at all, but the rain hitting the glass as it did made Joey rather sleepy. He had already had such an exhausting day wrestling with his father, and trying to keep his sanity intact.
Joey tried to drift off, but every time he tried Kaiba would slam on the breaks and give him a jolt so he'd stay awake. Joey glared at him. "What gives!?" He screamed at him.
"What? I didn't do anything wrong." Kaiba would excuse himself and keep driving.
Joey grumbled and leaned his chin on his hand. This wasn't quite what he had pictured happening if they ever got together. Kaiba was cruel in his eyes at the moment for hitting the breaks like he was doing. Despite everything Kaiba was doing, Joey couldn't really be mad at him. To him, this was already a dream come true.
The sleek blue car pulled in through a tall gate that opened wide for him, like the Gates of Heaven to God. Joey's eyes glued themselves to the windows and just couldn't believe his eyes. The greenest plants Joey had ever seen in his life surrounded them! The trees were barely blossoming which was a beautiful sight just on its own, but there was much, much more to see! There were statues of Cherubs spaced along the path they were driving on, and there were shrubs shaped as Kaiba's favorite duel monsters.
The most prominent figures were the 3 Blues-Eyes White Dragons that Kaiba cherished the most. They stood in the middle of the end of the driveway where it circled around just in front of the house.
When the car stopped, Joey was absolutely speechless and gawked idiotically at the house. Kaiba parked the car and got out, he started for the door casually and walked up the steps to the front door. His eyes fell back on the car and he noticed that Joey still hadn't gotten out. He rolled his eyes blue eyes and growled. "Get the hell out of the car, you moron!" He yelled impatiently.
Joey snapped back to reality and jumped out of the car quickly, but carefully shut the door to the car. He knew full well that he couldn't replace a piece like this so he was gentle with it. He scurried up beside Kaiba obediently and glanced up at Kaiba nervously. "W…What we doin' here?" He asked quietly.
Kaiba opened the front door and shoved Joey inside the house. Joey tripped on the carpet as he fell into the house and toppled over onto the floor. He groaned and sat up slowly as he rubbed his forehead. Kaiba stepped over him and removed his jacket and hung it up on a hook on the wall. "Welcome."
Joey looked up and around the house and was amazed at how beautiful and coordinated it was. There were different hues of blue and plenty of white. Around the area were carefully placed vases and looked delicate and expensive. Joey made a mental note to be clumsy away from them.
"This place looks clean like a hospital but expensive like a museum." Joey said as he surveyed the entrance further. What you could see from the door was the living room, which was connected to an open kitchen area. There were dozens of hallways leading other places as well. "I'm impressed, Kaiba."
"You should be." Kaiba said shamelessly and walked over into the kitchen. He got a crystal drinking glass out of one of the cupboards and got himself a drink of cool water out of the refrigerator. "Need something?" He called. The house gave off an echo that Joey couldn't help but think was cool.
Joey's mind was blank at the moment. He was so overwhelmed with everything so far and was still trying to take it all in. Kaiba looked around the corner at Joey and snapped his fingers. Joey looked at him. I can't really ask for more. I've gone too far already. He felt like he was being spoiled even though he had only put his foot in the door.
"N-No, I'm good." He uttered softly and continued looking around.
Kaiba shrugged and leaned back against the counter as he swallowed down his drink. He set the glass aside and sighed. There has to be something I can do to make him feel more comfortable here…but what?
The CEO's intentions were to bring Joey here to get him away from that apartment for a while. He thought Joey deserved at least a little happiness if nothing else.
"Are you hungry or thirsty? Maybe bored?" Kaiba asked several questions to try and find something Joey wanted.
Joey just sat there on the carpet looking stupefied. He wasn't quite sure what to do now that he was here. Kaiba marched over to him and grabbed the nape of his shirt. It annoyed him when people didn't respond to his questions or the things he said. "Pay attention, dammit!"
Joey suddenly looked frightened clear to the core his being. He threw his arms up over his face as if he was afraid Kaiba would strike him. "Please don't!" He cried out. Kaiba let go of him immediately and backed up a step or two. He wasn't quite sure what had just happened.
Not as suspenseful as some of my other chapters, but it's a pretty good place to stop. (Or at least I think so XP) I hope you liked it! I'd love more reviews, they're always fun to read :D At least you know where Kaiba took Joey! Lol bai bai!
