-Kill Me or Forever Forget-

Joey walk to school as he usual do at Monday. He enters the class and greet Yugi as usual and his three other friends.

'How's the party yesterday?' Yugi asks delightedly. 'Joey looks away as they all start chattering about how great the party is. Joey saw Kaiba was walking in and seated at his usual place and open his laptop and start typing like he usually did. Joey looks down on his table and places his head on it.

'Joey, why do you look so down?' Yugi ask as he worries about his friend condition.

'It's nothing… I'm just tired.' Yugi then go back to chatter with his other friends.

Secretly Kaiba was looking at Joey. He was glad not to make eye contact because he's afraid to see if Joey was angry at him for last night.

'I have to talk to him. I might get rejected again but I really need to know a reason. I want to know if Joey got an issue or he's got someone he love already.' Kaiba thought as he keeps looking at Joey as his type. He doesn't need to look at the computer anymore since he's already a pro in this kind of thing.

The day when so slow that Joey keep praying in his heart that someone kind enough to press the fire alarm so he can step out from the boring class.

'Joey, you got someone who want to meet you.' a student appear at the door. Joey was glad that he gets to step out. He quickly got up and wave goodbye to his friend. Kaiba look disappointedly as Joey left the class.

'He seems to be happy at least.' Kaiba say quietly and sigh.

'So who's this person who's going to meet me?' Joey asks as they walk side by side.

The guy just keeps silent and walks toward the music room.

'Excuse me, would you mind telling me what are we going to do here?' Joey asks as he makes sure not to step in the music room. He doesn't want someone to make a prank on him.

'I got a message from the boss.' The guy whisper softly. 'I'm Otogi, if you might hear of me.'

Joey looks around to see if anybody was around. He quickly walks in the music room and shut the door.

'I heard from you. Even though you're a skill in weapon you also get a lot of money in gambling and you can easily steal girl's heart just by showing your talent. You're very famous.' Joey says as he claps his hand.

'It's nice to know I'm famous.' Otogi smile since he like to be praise. 'I can also steal boy's heart and even yours.'

Joey stops clapping and look at Otogi seriously. Otogi stop smiling as he surprise to see Joey cute face ha d change to a serious one.

'Did I say something wrong?' Otogi asks.

Joey just cross his hand and tap his fingers.

'Get down to business, what did Marik sama wants?' Joey asks. Otogi take out a photo from his pocket and show it to Joey.

'He asks you to eliminate this boy. He thinks this will be easy for you since you had close relationship to this boy.'

Joey eyes were wide open. In that picture was Kaiba little brother, Mokuba.

'Why should I kill him?' Joey asks as he wants an explanation. He didn't realize there was a sweat drop on his face.

'The boss said that Kaiba Corporation will be disaster if the CEO had lost someone precious to him. So he says that boy will be the perfect person to be killing.' Joey grab Otogi collar and Otogi was surprise to see Joey act like that.

'I want you to contact the boss.' Joey takes out a gun and pointed it at Otogi face. 'I want to talk to him.'

Otogi look at Joey. He grabs Joey hand and Joey quickly pushes him away. 'I want you to do it now.' Joey holds the gun with both his hand.

Otogi laugh. 'You can't kill me with rubber bullets. Also I will do it for cute people like you so chill out.'

Joey put down his weapon. 'You knew it was rubber bullet? No wonder you were call an expert in weapon.'

'Indeed I am.' Otogi take out his phone. 'By looking at your weight and height, I know it was rubber bullets that contain in your guns since you take it out to easy.'

Otogi then hand over his phone to Joey.

'You're pretty interesting just like I heard. Whether you know it or not, you're actually famous too.' Otogi say as he sees Joey had start looking at Otogi contact list. 'There were lots of rumor that you and the boss had special relationship.'

Joey shut off Otogi phone and gives it back to him.

'I thought you want to contact the boss.' Otogi ask confusedly. 'Change your mind?'

'No, is just that you're giving me the fake numbers.' Joey says as he walks out.

'You knew?' Otogi ask in curiosity.

'Marik sama won't leave his trail very easily.' Joey was about to walk away before Otogi hold Joey hand to stop him.

'You're very interesting; do want to go on a date with me.' Otogi place his hand at Joey waist. 'You won't regret it.'

'I would say yes if you're Marik sama. Too bad you're not.' Joey pushes Otogi hand away and slams the door at Otogi face. 'People this day don't know what they up against. Joey look at his watch and smile. 'It's time to go home.'

Kaiba look at Joey desk before walking out from the class. Joey just misses a few periods and his bag is still there. Kaiba decide to ignore it and suddenly his phone start ringing.

'Mr. Kaiba, we got a problem. You have to come here and see this.' The voice says. Kaiba shut off his phone and quickly walk toward his limo.

Joey enters the boss room. He looks around to see where Marik is since he's not sitting at his chair like he usually does.

'Marik sama.' Joey spoke as he looks around. Then he heard a rustling sound coming from the room next door.

Marik office was connected to another room which only few people can enter. Joey is one of them.

'Marik sama?' Joey says as he walks inside.

He sigh to see his boss was sleeping with a laptop was still hasn't turn off that is right in front of him. Joey walks toward a hidden closet which located at the corner of the room and take out a blanket. He put it around Marik to make sure his boss didn't catch a cold.

Joey was about to turn off the computer as suddenly a private message pop out. Joey decides to ignore it but was surprise to see that it was from Kaiba. He looks at his sleepy boss and decided to take a quick look. It was a shock to see that the message contain the Kaiba Corporation list of buyers, the list of things that was supposed to be kept secret and Kaiba schedule.

'Why did Kaiba give this information to Marik? Didn't Marik plan to kill Mokuba to destroy Kaiba so the whole Corporation will be destry as well? Are they partners and why didn't Marik tell me about this? He didn't believe me or something?' Joey still looking at the computer creen and look disappointedly.

He thought Marik trust him to keep this a secret but it seems that Marik had things that he didn't tell him.

'I hack his computer so I will know what Kaiba is planning.' Marik says as he places his hand around Joey. 'Are you really that worry if I keep any secret from you?'

Joey nodded and Marik close the laptop. He turn Joey head to his direction so he can look at Joey.

'Do you have any reason of coming here? You got something to talk about right?' Joey once again nodded.

'I won't do as you say.' Joey shows the picture of Mokuba that Otogi give him. 'I won't.'

'What's wrong? Never once in my life I had thought you will say no to me.' Marik take the picture away and tore it to pieces. 'See, as easy as that to kill a harmless boy.'

'He's like a brother to me.' Joey said. 'Can't we just kidnap him and bribe Kaiba? That boy won't cause any damage.'

'I really hate when you care about someone else other than me.' Marik push Joey on top f the table, Joey look frighten as Marik help up a knife at Joey neck. Few drops of blood came out.

'I remember when I say I won't let you get hurt so I will be the only person who can do that to you since you're mine. Here's an order and it's absolute. So listen carefully.' Joey closes his eyes knowing what Marik will say next. 'Kill Mokuba and cut off his head from the body.'

'He is just a kid.' Joey says sadly. 'That boy is just like a brother to me.'

'Don't be a soft guy.' Marik lick Joey neck and lick the blood until no more came out.

'You're mine so it's better for you to never feel pity to others; I hope you remember my present last night. Those colors of the roses represent you.'

'The color of death, I remember it well Marik.' Joey stands up. 'It represents who I really am.'

'I'm glad you realize it.' Marik embrace Joey and whisper to Joey ears. 'Soon your heart will also be mine.'

'You will die Marik sama.' Joey said as the single drop of tear came out. 'I hate losing someone.'

'You still won't give in won't you Joey?' Marik kisses Joey and Joey put his hands around Marik.

'I will never….' Joey closes his eyes. 'If the day might come for me to fell in love please kill me. So you won't be harm.'

'The day won't come and I won't kill you.' Marik as he touches Joey lips gently with his finger.

Joey shows his neck that had been cut just now.

'I believe the killing won't be a problem.' Joey touches Marik face that is blushing. 'Either kill me or forget me so my feelings can't be return. Both hurts and I think I won't mind dying in your hands Marik sama.'

'Joey… I love you.' Marik hug Joey and tightly around his arms. Joey let himself being embrace but at the same time he want to push Marik away scare if anything happen to Marik in front of him. He can't forget of what happen to his four precious people.
