Chapter ten: Party.
"LAND!" Joey and Tristan yelled, jumping out of Seto's convertible and hugging the concrete. "How did you get your license anyway?" Joey said.
"Why are you complaining, you're all in one piece." Seto said.
"The examinator was frightened at the idea of having to make Seto try the exam again so he gave him his liscence." The younger Kaiba said. Yugi and the Kaiba brothers got out of the car and waited patiently for the other to stop kissing the ground. "You two look like the pope." Mokuba said.
"Well I don't think Meyli would have been happy if you had kill me the day right before the wedding." Joey said, getting up.
"You were perfectly safe, I never had a single car accident in all my life." Seto said.
"That's because all the cars are throwing themself out of the road to not colide with you." Mokuba said, earning himself a light hit behind the head.
Joey sighed, Seto's driving style was probably the scariest one he ever experienced but he had to admit that the guy was right. "Whatever. Are you going to tell me what this is all about or what?"
"Well, we can't give you a conventional bachelor party because you hate those things and Seto will never hear the end of it if someone sees him so we decided to just go and have an evening together. After all, it has been ages since we went out only the five of us for more than 10 minutes." Yugi said.
"And what better to start the night than an all you can eat buffet!" Tristan said.

"I can't believe that you and Joey are getting married tomorrow. It seems like yesterday you were still that new girl who couldn't even be with a guy without having an attack. And I never expected Joey to be the first one to get married." Anzu said. "What do you think of this one?" Anzu said, putting a dress in front of her.
"It gives you a big butt." Meyli said.
Anzu swetdropped. "Sometime you really should have a little bit more tact, that surely is something you have in commun with Joey. By the way...since when are shops open this late?"
"They are always opened at this hour, if your last name happens to be Kaiba." Meyli said.
"You will always surprise me." Anzu said, putting the dress back and going to search a little further, she stopped abrubtly. "You swear this is perfectly legal right?"
Meyli laughed. "Don't worry, I know the girl who run this business, she knows I'm here."

"Seriously, I never understood how you could go through your day with so little food." Joey said, eating his fourth plate.
Seto simply shrugged. "I prefer to eat less than eating like you. Sometime I wonder why my sister agreed to marry you."
"Well at least I'm getting married." Joey said. "Unlike a certain person I know who still have to find his first girlfriend.
"Come on guys, let's try not to get into an argument here." Mokuba said.
"Why not, we came here to have one last evening to ourself before Joey has his hands full with diapers." Seto said.
"Let me remind you that said child happens to be your nephew." Yugi said.
"Which means that I'll be expecting some help from you." Joey said.
"Be careful Seto, you are going to be uncle soon, you are getting old." Mokuba said laughing.
"In case you didn't notice, dear brother, you will be uncle too." Seto said with a smile. Mokuba blinked twice, is if it he had just realised that fact, while the others laughed.
Once the dinner was over and Seto had paid for everything, including a really generous tip, the guys left the restaurant and went back to Kaiba's car.
"So, where are we going next?" Joey asked.
"Just some place Seto knows about." Mokuba answered.
"Are you sure it's worth it?" Joey asked. "I really don't want to go play poker with a bunch of old guys."
"Just because I don't have a girlfriend doesn't mean that I never go out." Seto answered. "And to answer your question, this is a bachelor party so whether you like it or not we are still taking you out in a nightclub."
"Hey, that's low, you know I hate those things."
"Aw come on Joey, you never even stepped foot in one of those places. The one we are going is not as bad as you think, I swear you won't see anyone making a strip." Mokuba said getting in the car.
Joey sighed, he didn't really have the choice, he just hoped that he wouldn't throw up his dinner in Seto's car, that would mean his death. "Tell me why did I ask your sister to marry me again?"
The ride to the nightclub was mostly silent...except from Joey's and Tristan constant yelling and Mokuba's cheering at his brother. However, this time again, there was not a scratch on the car, which was a mystery.
"That's it, I am never, and I mean NEVER going back in a car that you're driving." Joey said as he got out.
"Don't be such a cry baby." Seto said.
"So uhm, what is this place? I never heard from it." Joey said.
Seto smirked. "It's a private nightclub, not everyone can get in there. But I can garantee you that there is no nude dancer here and the only few people who are able to get drunk are sent away.
"Sounds boring." Tristan commented as they passed in front of the bouncer.
"You'd be surprised." Mokuba said as they entered. Suddenly all they could hear was loud music, soon they arrived to the dance ground, it was almost completely full, people were everywhere. There was also a small stage in front for people who wanted to show their moves to others.
"For those interested, drinks are over there, don't over do it, they take the right to refuse or throw out anyone they think drank to much, they also have zero tolerance against girl harassing." Seto said over the loud music.
"Why are you all looking at me?" Tristan asked.
"Because you are the one who keep running after skirts all day." Mokuba said. "Now if you'll excuse me." He said, dissapearing into the dancing crowd.
"Does he even have the right to be here?" Joey asked.
"Relax Joey." Yugi said.
"Easy for you to say. You know I have bad experience from those place."
"Let me remind you that said places used to belong to the street gang you were in." Yugi said. "If they let kids come in, I'm sure it's safe."
"Considering said kid actually own the place, I think it's safe to assume that he has the right to be here." Seto said.
"You mean Mokuba owns this place?" Yugi asked.
Seto nodded. "It's a little something he did behind my back about a year ago. I wonder why he dissapeared so fast, he had been doing that a lot lately."
Joey smirked. "Maybe he has a girlfriend."
"Which reminds me Wheeler. What were you thinking when you told my lil bro to go out with 20 girls at the same time?" Seto said.
"Hey, it worked didn't it?" Joey said, shrinking from Seto's stare. "I um I have to go." He said dissapearing into the crowd.
"Well now at least we know that he'll have some fun." Yugi said.

"There you go girl." Meyli said, stopping the car in front of Anzu's appartment building. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"Good night." Anzu said, she closed the door and walked up to the front door. She opened it silently and crossed the living room on her tip toes, it was almost 3 in the morning and she didn't want to wake up Raven, however, such precautions were unseless.
"Where were you?"
Anzu shrieked from surprise and fear, she turned around and relaxed slightly, seeing it was Raven. "I was just outside, hanging out with my friends."
"Liar, I know you were with that Meyli brat, maybe even with her brothers as well." Raven was almost yelling.
"Alright so maybe I was with her, and no I wasn't with Mokuba nor Seto. What do you have against them? they are my friends Raven." Anzu said. Tears started to fell out of her eyes.
"Of course, he's your friend. Actually you two seems to me more than just friends."Raven said.
"What are you talking about?" Anzu asked.
"You should know." Raven said, taking out the pile of picture.
Anzu's face went completely white when she saw the pictures Meyli gave her after her first show, she had completely forgotten about them. "It's not what you think, I can explain it, it's just one of Meyli's joke."
"Shut up." Raven yelled. "I don't want to hear it. I don't need to. I don't care what that was, you are never going to spend one more minute with those guys, especially Kaiba, once this stupid wedding is done and that's final."
"You can't force me to do anything." Anzu countered.
"I can and I will." Raven said. Anzu just stayed silent for a while before going to her bedroom and slammed the door behind her. Raven sighed, sitting down on the couch and staring at the pictures. His glare at the man on the pictures was so intenses that they could have burned to ashes in less than two seconds, he knew someone who was going to pay for touching his girl.

"See, it wasn't that bad." Seto said when they came out, near 4 in the morning. "We all had fun, no one got thrown out and no one is drunk."
Joey smiled. "Fine, I'll admit it. But I'm still not getting in your car."
"Not a chance, I'm too tired and anyway I cannot say that I'm totaly sober either." Seto said. "Same goes for all of us I suppose." He added. It was true that no one was drunk but they all drank a little something. "Which is why I called a limo."
"Does your driver even have a life?" Joey asked. Right now, all he really cared about was to get home and sleep.
Seto thought about it for a while. "I'll have to check that out." He said as the limo came to a halt next to them.
The drive home wasn't really calm either. What else can you expect in a limo that had a satelite TV, a fridge and a lot of other convenience.

Meyli yawned as she entered the kitchen soon after noon, she had come back a little after three and she didn't sleep that much either, she was way too exited and anxious.
"Nervous?" Seto asked over his newspaper. He too just woke up and Mokuba was still sleeping.
Meyli opened her mouth to answer but she put her hand over it and ran out of the kitchen. When she came back about 5 minutes later Seto looked as her woringly. "Are you alright?"
"I think nervous is en understatement. And the baby is not helping either." Meyli said. "So, how was the night?"
"It was nice. We got Joey drunk and he is probably waking up somewhere in a crappy hotel." Seto said.
"Ha ha." Meyli said, extremely sarcatically.
"Seriously it was really great. I'm sure Joey will give you all the details of his amazing kidnaping. Speaking of him, why aren't you at his house?"
"To have you wake me up at I don't know what time when you brought him home? no thanks." Meyli answered.
"What did you do all evening?" Seto asked.
"I went out with Anzu." Meyli answered. "We didn't do much though, just some shopping and hanging out."
"Just make sure to rest properly ok?" Seto asked. "I have some small work to do so I'll see you later alright?"
Meyli just smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. See you this evening."

Alright sorry but I'm stopping here. At first I really wanted to make this chapter longer and to add the wedding but i just wasn't feeling like writing, I know nothing much is going on in this chapter but I'm leaving today for vacation I'll be back in a week but after that I have to move, after that I'll maybe pass some time with my father. I really have no idea when I'll be back. Today I have to get ready to leave so I won't have the time to make that chapter longer, I'm also dead tired because of my stupid older brother, the idiot stayed up on the comp all night talking (or should I say yeling) on his stupid micro with his friends, because of him I wasn't able to fall asleep before 2:30 in the morning and got woke up and 5:45 which means...I had 3:15 hours of sleep if my brain didn't suffer too much from vacation. which is less than half what I normaly need to get through the day, I swear I am totaly beat and it took me almost everything i had to simply finish this chapter. I'll see you all in a week.
Aryn: I'm taking the little white rabbit thingny with me nah, you can't find me because you have no idea where I'm gong (honestly I don't even know myself) and no comment on this chapter's grammar seriously I have to write almost all the words twice or even three times to get them right, I really am tired this morning. (stupid older brother, why did I decide to stay longer? a right, little bro's puppy dog eyes.)
