For reading, reviewing and liking the story so far. Extra long chapter for you! (slightly anyway) Thank you so much! Anyway, onwards!

Joey walked upstairs. The staircase was a light marble and a blue carpet ran down the centre. It was similar to the colours of the Blue Eyes White Dragon, but he began to wonder if the carpet was only there to stop people slipping on the expensive stone. When he reached the top, Mokuba had pointed out that he would immediately know which room was Kaiba's, however the blond had protested against this. He had only been to Kaiba Mansion once before, and that was yesterday. How was he supposed to know which room belonged to the rich bastard? Technically all of the rooms belonged to him, which made this all the more fun.

Joey walked down the hallway; huge doors towered up to around 8 feet, each with intricate symbols carved into the woodwork. At the end of the hall there was a larger door. It stood taller than the rest and looked seriously expensive. The door, like the staircase was made of white marble, and a carving of a dragon rolled over the frame, as if to guard the entrance. 'That's it.' Joey thought to himself and his walking pace quickened as he neared the door.

As he stood before it, his heart began to race. He was stood in front of Seto Kaiba's bedroom door. It was huge and elegant like the boy it belonged to. The door was simple with the words 'spectemur agendo' written across the middle. It was Latin, but Joey had no idea what it meant. Probably something to do with fame, fortune and being a total ass to everyone you meet.

Hesitantly, Joey reached up his hand and banged on the door using a gold hoop that rested against a leather pad. It was strange and muffled the blows, but with a door that expensive, he guessed it was normal to protect it. There was a like clattering inside.

'What!' Came the abrupt yell from inside.

'Uh, Hi Kaiba, it's me.' Joey looked around feeling slightly nervous.

'What the hell do you want, Wheeler.' It wasn't really a question.

'Um, that project, we have to work on it rich-boy.' Joey tried to sound as smart as possible without sounding suspicious.

'I'm busy.'

'Ah well too bad, I ain't leavin'.'

'I'll get securit….wait, how the hell did you get in?'

'Mokuba.'

'That lil…' Joey could hear Kaiba's voice trail off. He was beyond pissed.

'Uh Kaiba? I ain't goin' nowhere. If I don't pass this, then I don't pass English. So shut down yer stupid laptop and open up.' A growl came from inside the room.

'What will it take you to leave mutt? I don't have time to play Frisbee, so what.'

'The project. Jeez, I thought you was meant to be smart.'

'I'm too busy to do the stupid project. Go do it yourself.'

'No way rich-boy, I ain't doin' all the work. Open up and stop tryin' to hide.'

'I'm busy.'

'Bullshit.'

'Go away Wheeler.'

'I ain't goin' no where, and if you don't open up I'm gonna raid your kitchen. You'll be sorry.'

'Don't you fucking dare…'

'You know what ta do…' There was a muffled groan and clattering. Finally the doors shifted a bit and the right hand one opened.

'Come in you stupid mutt.' Kaiba stepped back and allowed room for the blond to walk in. the room was huge. The ebony bed had silky white sheets on and was perfectly made. Matching curtains hung from the window resting delicately on the floor. The window looked out onto a large garden with a maze and roses. In the far end of the room was an ebony desk with Kaiba's laptop on. It was plugged in and next to it stood a tall cup of what smelt like coffee. In the corner was another marble door, leading to what Joey assumed was the bathroom. A huge gold rimmed mirror hung opposite the bed and next to large ebony sliding doors. Joey assumed this was Kaiba's closet. Matching bedside tables featured small statues of Blue Eyes and photographs. At the foot of the bed was a white satin sofa with gold trim before another ebony coffee table. The floor was marble with a deep blue rug in the centre and matched the walls which where of the same blue. It was amazing.

'Wow, your room is huge.' It was true. Just that one room was bigger than Joey's apartment and he felt ashamed to admit it.

'Yeah well. What do you want to start with mutt?' Joey looked to Kaiba. It was the first time he looked at him. The boy was clad in loose silk blue bottoms and a tight white shirt. His hair was a mess and only a few strands fell lazily over his eyes.

'You just woke up of something?' The brown haired boy frowned.

'No. I wasn't expecting company.'

'Don't you like, own a company?'

'Well that's new.'

'No, I mean, your usually in a suit and ready to race off.'

'Yes well, I haven't been feeling so good and I haven't gone into work. I've been managing everything from my laptop and cell phone so I didn't feel the need to dress up. That good enough for you mutt?' Joey studied his face before shrugging.

'Whatever. Just weird.'

'Well so sorry I don't meet your exceptionally high standards.' His face remained expressionless and he walked back to the desk. 'There is a small book cabinet at the other side of the door. The book from yesterday is on it. I brought it up with me.' With that Kaiba sat down at his desk. Joey turned to close the door and noticed the ebony and gold bookcase standing a few feet from the door. He gently slid the glass and scanned the bindings for the mentioned book. He found it quickly and pulled it out. He then walked over to the sofa and sat down. Kaiba had adorned glasses, and he peered over the top of them.

'What are you doing, you filthy mutt?' Joey looked about himself.

'Um, about to start reading this book?'

'You have your filthy paws all over my sofa.' His eyes narrowed.

'Well where do you expect me to sit?' Kaiba chuckled menacingly.

'Where do all mutts sit?'

'Oh don't even think it rich-boy.'

'Floor mutt. Get down off the sofa. Be a good pooch. Mutts aren't allowed to sit where people do.' Joey didn't budge. He just glared back. For a guy needing friends, he sure was an ass.

'I don't think so.' He meant it. Kaiba may be a powerful man, but he was sitting on the floor for no one. Kaiba raised from his chair.

'Off the sofa mutt, or I will make you.' Joey smirked. There was no way that skinny son of a bitch could take him down. He was from Brooklyn. He was a street kid, he could fight and he knew he could take some skinny ass pretty-boy down. Sure Joey had lost fights to Kaiba before, but he had always been caught off guard. He reclined back into the sofa, crossing his legs as he did so. This, would be fun.

The elder Kaiba walked slowly towards Joey. His eyes narrowed and his face twisted into a frightening smirk. Joey tried his best to look smug but inside he began mapping out what Kaiba could do. Before he knew it, the brunet had grabbed hold of his collar and thrown him to the floor. Joey glanced around trying to figure out what just happened.

'Good mutt, now stay.' Before he could think, Joey charged at Kaiba's long legs, sending him plummeting backwards. Joey wriggled his hands from beneath the fallen legs, racing quickly to sit a top of the blue eyed boy. Just as he did so, Kaiba snapped one of his legs over Joey's shoulder, throwing the blond onto his back, so the taller of the two could get on top. Joey struggled beneath the boy, flailing his arms to grab hold of the others hair, neck, shirt…whatever he could reach. As he did this, Kaiba grabbed the blonds arms, pinning them above his head, against the cold, hard floor. Joey bucked wildly beneath him and Kaiba grinned.

'Are you going to stay on the floor like the stupid animal you are?' Joey growled and used all the strength he could muster to knock the sapphire eyed boy off the top, sitting on top of his chest. He pinned the long arms down and glared into the crystal eyes.

'I am not a fucking animal Kaiba.' Seto glared back, and just then, he noticed how enticing the chocolate coloured eyes where…
