A/N: Hey all! I am glad on how well the first chapter went, I was hoping to get more reviews for it but oh well, 1 review is always better than none. So a big thanks to RonnieKiryu for being the first review to this fanfic.
Anyways on some minor thoughts, after my binge watching of Pirates of the Caribbean, I got an amazing of a Puppyshipping fanfic. Where Joey is a care-free whacky pirate (like capt jack sparrow) and Seto is Lord's son. So anyways I might write up a test chapter for that, so be watching for that if you have any interest in it.
Also please check out my other fanfics! And maybe leave a review for it? That would be amazing and help me keep writing my other fanfics that you guys like.
So onto the story!

~ Too Close ~
The blonde's honey brown eyes fluttered open as he heard something pounding against his bedroom window. Slowly he rubbed his eyes open and got up from his makeshift bed on the floor. After a few stretches and yawns he was finally awake. He went over to his closet and grabbed his phone from his little hiding place, thanking that he had smarts to stash his phone away from his father, knowing that he would pawn anything worth of value to buy himself booze. The blonde flipped it open and notice the little "new text message" icon popped up on the little screen, seems to have only been sent a minute ago. A soft gasp came from the blonde's mouth as he noticed the name on the text message. "Seto…" the blonde whispered the name as he opened the text message.
"Wheeler you better be up, I should be there in half an hour. I will not wait around all day for you." – Seto
Joey bit back a curse as he remembered what day it was. 'God I forgot it's Saturday… FUCK ME… Ok gotta get ready quickly before my dad wakes up or Seto gets here. First let's shower.' Joey's thoughts ran rampant during the next twenty minutes of getting ready, he was relaxed when he found out his father hasn't gotten home yet. So after showering, drying his hair, and making himself smell amazing, he was left with the decision of 'what to wear?'
After some deliberation Joey decided on a simple pair of black straight cut jeans, black t-shirt, and a red and black flannel over top of the shirt. Once he was happy with his appearance, leaving about three minutes to head downstairs, Joey quickly grabbed his school bag full of stuff he needed for the project, and his phone. He hustled down the stairs and outside to the front steps of the apartment building in under two minutes, giving himself enough time to catch his breath and look like he has been waiting as Seto's sports car pulled up in front of him. Joey casually walked up to Seto's car and opened the door.
Unbeknownst to Joey as Seto pulled up to building, a major blush grew across his face. 'God damn the pup looks good. For wearing something so simple as a flannel and jeans, it makes he look good. Reminds me of his precious Red Eyes Black Dragon.' So when Joey sat inside his car Seto was adamantly trying not to look Joey. "Good morning Kaiba…" Joey's voice came over to Seto's ears, making him turn to look at Joey. In that moment Seto's breath hitched as he got a closer look at Joey. Joey's golden hair looked so clean and soft to Seto, making him hold back the urge to touch it. So Joey only got a response of a soft grunt from Seto as he turned back to start driving. In silence that at first seem uncomfortable, but grew to be quite pleasant, they drove back to Seto's mansion. As they got out Joey finally said something, "Hey uh… Is Mokuba going to be around today?" Seto only raised an eye brow at Joey, "No, he is staying at a friend's house for the weekend, it seems he has a project to work on as well." Joey only nodded as they made their way into the house. After a quick tour of the place, Seto finally stopped in his study. "Alright pup, let's get going shall we?"
The rest of the morning was spent with Joey and Seto doing research over both internet and books that Seto had in his study. For once, they sat in calmness as they had nice chats about what they found and what they think need. But as Seto had his head down in a book, he heard a loud grumbling noise. His head snapped up to see a blushing Joey looking shyly away. "Is the pup hungry?" Seto smirked as he watch Joey nod his head shyly, "Yes… Sorry to bother but I didn't have a chance to eat breakfast this morning…" Which would be true if that had actual food been in the apartment, but sadly there was only snacks and junk food that his dad always buys. So Joey just either eats cheaply out or eats his free meals at the school and bar. Joey was trying not to make eye contact until he heard Seto's voice soften, "It's ok pup, we need a break anyways. What would you like for lunch?" After a minute of thought Joey's face lit up with happiness, "Oh Kaiba, can we get some Chinese take-out? I haven't had any in months!" Seto just nodded his head as he pulled out his smartphone and began looking up places. "What food do you want pup?" After some more thought Joey grinned with wolfish grin, "Yes, let's get fried rice, chow mein, orange chicken, egg rolls, beef and broccoli, and some kung pao chicken." Seto raised an eye brow at Joey but nodded his head as he called the take-out place giving them the order. After a few minutes of conversation Seto hung up and got up from the chair he was in and stretched. "Alright the food will be here in about half an hour. What would you like to do until then?" Joey got up as well and stretched as well, "Well have you seen any Monty Python movies?" Joey's mouth gapped as Seto shook his head. "Well I will correct this problem in society today. Come on Seto let's go watch one of my favorite movies." Seto couldn't protest since Joey grabbed onto his forearm and dragged him downstairs into the living room and proceeded to pull up the movie onto the tv. So Seto just sat down on the couch and playfully glared at the back of Joey's head. Said golden haired blonde sat on the floor in front of Seto as the movie was loading up. Seto decided to lay on his side since Joey didn't seem to want to sit onto the couch. "Alright Kaiba you are in for a treat! We are going to watch Monty Python and Holy Grail! A classic funny movie." "I better laugh at this shit Wheeler," Seto playfully teased as he ruffled Joey's hair quickly, receiving a quick but harmless glare from the blonde. After half an hour and right on time the mansion doorbell rung, Claude, Seto's butler, and brought in the take-out for the two. They both dug into the food, Seto not realzing how hungry he was until he started eating. As they watched the movie Joey smiled to himself as he heard Seto trying to quietly laugh throughout the entire movie.
After the movie was over Seto was sitting upside down on the couch laughing with Joey as they recited funny lines from the movie. "I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper," Seto said through his laughter. "I fart in you general direction!" Joey replied through his laughter and happy tears. "Your mother was a hamster," Seto said as he push Joey over. "And your father smelt of elderberries!" Joey crowed as he laughed on the floor of Seto's living room. As the laughter died down slowly the just kind looked at each other. After a minute of staring, the looked away from each other and were blushing heavily. "Not a bad movie pup, I quite enjoyed it." Seto casually looked back at Joey who was stretched out on the floor arms behind his head. "I am glad you liked it… It always cheers me up." Seto raised an eye brow as Joey's voice was so soft it was almost a whispered. Seto just silently looked over Joey's face, taking in his wide honey brown eyes, golden hair in a perfect mess, and his plump lips. As Seto's eyes rested on Joey's lips he felt his face grow hot, oh how he wanted to ravage those lips right now, but he couldn't thinking that Joey wouldn't like it at all. So to stop his urge Seto grabbed the tv remote and changed it to a channel with stocks and business stuff, so Joey turned away from the tv and looked at Seto who was engrossed in the stocks flashing on the screen. So Joey took some time as well to look over Seto's face, first with his blue narrow eyes, chestnut hair barely falling onto his face, square jaw, high cheek bones, and thin lips. As Joey's eye settled on those lips, his thoughts race as to all the wonderful kissing they could do, but sadly he knew Seto would never like him in that way. Joey finally looked away from Seto's face and pulled out his phone. "Oh shit! I have to go Kaiba it's already somehow 5pm. I need to get ready for my shift tonight." Seto sat up and stretched his arms, "Alright calm yourself puppy, I drive you back to your apartment." Joey nodded and rushed upstairs to grab his backpack, while Seto grabbed a black hoodie jacket and threw it on over his white button shirt, since it was cold out. As Joey came back downstairs he froze on the stairs as he seen Kaiba waiting by the front door wearing a hoodie, 'Dear god… Dragon in that hoodie is hot… I am so used to seeing him in over the top outfit but now seeing him in just a hoodie and those fitted dark blue jeans. Fuck… Just makes him hot.' Seto turned away to see Joey frozen on the stairs with a deep blush across his cheeks. "Remember you're the one that's in a hurry." Suddenly Joey shook his head and quickly walked up to Seto, "Sorry Kaiba." Seto just grunted softly and led the way back out to his sports car. The drive back to Joey's was a peaceful silence as they both thought about their day with the other and had it was amazing. As Seto pulled the car up to the curb in front of the apartment building Joey took a second pause looking down at his hands making Seto raise an eye brow in curiosity. Seto was about to say something when Joey turned his head towards Seto a shy smile across his lips, honey eyes half-lidded, a small blush across his cheeks, "I… I had a good time today Seto. Thank you." And before Seto could say anything Joey was already out of the car and into the building, leaving a blushing, loss for words Seto Kaiba.
On the drive back to the mansion Seto was lost in his thoughts not realizing that he was driving around the city, until his smartphone was ringing. Quickly picking it up, "This is Kaiba." "Sir, just reminding you that you have your business meeting in an hour, the limo will be ready out front in fifty minutes." His secretary's nasally voice came over the phone. "Alright thank you Karen. You can go home now," And with that Seto quickly ended the call and came to realization that he was in front of the mansion. Seto spent the next hour preparing for his night out. Some of his business partners were treating him to a night out to some famous dancing bar. At first Seto was unsure he doesn't like dancing that much, but they reassured him that they are watching other men dance, sexily, but not stripping. So Seto went along with the plan since he needed these older men, well maybe not the men but their companies anyways.
After a decent shower, picking out clothes, and going over some last minute details, Seto was ready. He stepped out of the mansion wearing a black suit with a light blue undershirt with no tie. So it was semi-professional attire. He knew this meeting wasn't entirely business so he decided to actually wear something he wants to. As he was wrapping around the silver and black watch around his wrist he approached the limo. The limo finally got close to reaching its destination in the night life area of Domino City, not just strip clubs but night clubs, bars, and lively café hangouts. Seto could see that tonight was very busy, groups of men, groups of women, groups of both, going in and out of places. He froze as he saw a familiar head of golden hair, but it looked like a dull gold. He noticed the owner of said dull gold hair stumble into a tacky bar with a pot-bellied friend. 'That was not my puppy, but it sure looked a lot like him. Must be his father... Oh well cannot focus on that right now, I must prepare myself for a long night.' Seto turned back to steel himself for the night out ahead.
When the limo finally pulled up to the bar he was spending most of the night in, he eyed it with an raised eye brow. The bright flashy, neon red sign had the words, "The Poison Apple." Seem like an odd name for a dancing bar. Seto just shrugged as the group of men he was meeting approached him. Seto looked around at each of them he wasn't totally dreading the night, each man was well over twenty years older than him but each had their own good looks. Very mature in their looks, they all shared short hair styles, some of the men had greying spots while others seem to have theirs dyed in natural colors to hide any grey.
"Glad you came Mr. Kaiba sir, I am assured you will have a good time tonight," a deep mature voice came from his left, Harold was his name, about as tall as Seto, short grey and black hair, a well-trimmed mustache and bread on his face, and a mischievous glint in his older green eyes. "I hope Harold. I would hate to be disappointed," Seto casually said as he followed the group inside. As soon as they entered a teenage girl with chestnut colored hair similar to Seto's, and big fuchsia pink colored eyes. Seto looked over the girl more, her lightly tanned skin reminded Seto of Joey. "Hello gentlemen, I am your server for the night, Misaki. Please follow me to your private table," The girl motioned them to follow her, Seto followed first as they weaved their way through the crowded place. Seto looked amongst the crowd and other servers. He noticed that there was more women working the serving positions as there was more men performing and greeting the guests. The girl finally stopped at a table that had a perfect view of the stage, but had walls around the rest of the area giving them their privacy, Seto liked this very much. As the group filled in the seat around the table the girl began taking their drink orders, and even took down a few appetizer orders. "You gentlemen are in for a real treat tonight, one of our best dancers if performing a new dance tonight. I will be back as soon as I can with your orders," and with that the girl vanished into the open area of the building.
After an hour of drinking, light on Seto part, and light chatter about business and other topics, the lights dimmed only leaving the white light on the stage. An older man in a plain gray suit came up onto the stage with a microphone in head, Seto noticed a good portion of the crowd knew what was about to happen and began cheering loudly, clapping their hands, whooping and hollering. Seto looked back to the stage to see the older man hold out his free hand in order to calm the crowd down, "Well this is an exciting night for everyone, so let's get this show on the road. Give it up for your favorite, GOLDEN PUPPY!" Suddenly the lights blacked out and after a few seconds of the crowds cheering the beat of a song could be head playing throughout the place, Seto;s eyes widen in the dark as he could instantly remember where he has heard this beat before. Slowly the lights come back on revealing a sight that shocked Seto right to his core…
"Joey?"
A/N: I know so cruel to leave the story like that, but it was such a good place to end it. And of course I know that Seto and Joey were way ooc in this chapter, but I think in private the two would actually get along well, or at least my version of them in this story haha! XD If you don't like then don't read am I right?! So anyways leave reviews of what you thought of this chapter! Thanks all 3
