Chapter Six

Joey loved his new life, it was never dull and he was doing what he loved to do. Jasper saw a difference in Joseph and he wondered what would happen when Joseph and Seto met face to face.

One evening when they were out at a party, a man approached Joey and he asked him a question that took him completely by surprise. "How much?"

Jasper saw Floyd go over and talk to Joseph and he excused himself and hurried over to see what was going on, and when he heard what Floyd asked Joseph, he went over, and he pushed Floyd away and said, "Get out of here before I do something that I know you don't want."

Floyd left in a hurry and after he was gone, Joseph asked Jasper, "What in the hell did he mean how much?"

Jasper told him, "He wanted to know how much it would cost him for you to do sexual things to him."

Joey turned white and Jasper said, "Let's get the hell out of here; we can go get something to eat."

Joey was delighted to go when they were safely in the car, Joey looked at Jasper and he said, "How did you know what that bastard wanted?"

Jasper didn't take his eyes off the road and he said, "Everyone once in a while meets someone like Floyd when they come here, I was the lucky one, I was rescued by someone who decided that I was worth saving."

Joey didn't think when he asked Jasper, "Who was it?"

Jasper laughed and then he said, "I was at one of my first party when the person who became one of my best friends, ran off this creepy man and taught me what signs to look for. Missy was one hell of a Lady and the day she passed away, it nearly killed me."

Joey looked at him and said, "I'm sorry for your loss and for prying into your life."

Jasper said, "Listen, if you want to know something please ask, if I think that it's too personal I'll let you know otherwise I'll answer all your question."

Joey smiled at him and said, "Alright and if you want to ask me something, just ask me and like you if I don't want to tell you, I'll let you know."

Just then, Jasper pulled into the parking lot of a burger joint and as they got out of the car and walked inside, Jasper chuckled as he watched Joey's face as he looked at the items they had and after they ordered and went to sit down, Jasper asked, "You really love your burgers don't you?"

Joey swallowed what he was chewing and he said, "You better know it, when they opened the first Burger Barn, I was the first person in line to order."

Jasper laughed, then he said, "Well I love Italian food more then I should, it's so fattening and I have to watch what I'm eating."

Joey then said, "I know what you mean, I was told by someone very close to me, that if I kept eating all the junk food, that I'd turn out to be a fat pig and there wasn't any room in this house for pigs."

Jasper was so mad that he had to bite his tongue when he wanted to know who the son-of-a-bitch was that said that to him, but he kept quiet hoping that Joey might tell him and he wasn't disappointed.

Joey turned and looked out the window and said, "I never thought that Seto could be so mean, but from the look on his face I knew that he was, so I made sure that I never did or said anything to make that side of him come to the surface ever again."

One thing that Roland never did was to say something that mean to him ever, he just let Gozaburo push the right buttons to get him to stay and help raise the young boys that he had just adopted, but he never was verbally or physically abusive ever.

Jasper decided he was going to ask if Seto had ever been physically abusive to him and so he said, "If you don't want to tell me, just let me know. Did Seto ever hit you when he was angry?"

Joey looked at him and the look in his eyes told Jasper what he needed to know. Joseph then said, "Once he slapped me because I said something that he thought was stupid and I never did that again."

Jasper went over to where Joey was standing and he said, "When they get here, if he ever raises his voice at all at you or anyone else, he'll be asked to leave and not to come back, I will not allow abuse at any kind in my home."

Joey then turned around, he looked at Jasper, and he said, "Thank you for letting me come and not only stay in your home but for changing my life in ways that has made my life better."

Jasper smiled and said, "You're very welcome and it has been fun having you here, because you've made me realize how utterly boring my life had become, and now I love my new life too."

When the got home, Jasper said, "I guess we'd better get some sleep, we have to be at the airport early in the morning."

Joey turned back to the window and he thought to himself, "I don't know if I want to talk to Seto, what is he going to do or say when he finds out that I love my new life?"

Joey took a deep breath, turned around, and said, "Alright, I'll see you in the morning." Then he walked upstairs and went to his room, leaving Jasper standing there wondering what happened.

Jasper shrugged his shoulders and went to make sure that the house was locked up and then he too went upstairs and as he closed the door, he got ready and went to bed.

In Domino:

As the jet took off, Seto was sitting there and all of a sudden he started having second thoughts, it scared him, what if Joey had found someone else, what would he do then?"

Roland looked at Seto and he asked, "Are you alright?"

Seto looked at him and said, "I don't know, maybe I should have stayed home, what if Joey wants to stay there, what do I do then?"

Roland then said, "All you can do is be honest with Joseph, let him know how you feel and listen to what he has to say."

Mokuba pretended to be asleep and he prayed that when they got there, that Seto heard what Roland said, and that he did listen to what Joey says, because if he doesn't then this trip was completely useless. Then Mokuba closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Roland shook Mokuba and said, "Wake up, the pilot wants us to put on our seatbelts, he's going to be landing soon."
