I got this idea because it happens to me, I wake up at 3 in the morning for no reason no matter what day, but I actually get back to sleep 30 minutes later. Enjoy, and remember, if you want a sequel just ask, simple as that.

Disclaimer: don't own yugioh.


(Joey's P.O.V)

I don't know why it happens but it just does. Once again I woke up at 3 in the morning, 3 in the morning! There is no noise outside, it's completly quiet but I keep waking up at this hour, it's been happening for a week now. I'm glad we're on vacation because if we weren't then I'd look like a zombie, seriously.

I get out of bed and change into some clothes, if it can even be called that. My pants have holes and so does my shirt, but at least they're clean.

I put my shoes and a jacket on and walk out the door. Maybe walking around town will get me tired.

I pass by apartments and houses trying to ignore the stares I get from people, what's with them do I have something on my face?

"Hello Mutt"

'no, please no not Kaiba, why not yugi, or even Tea not Kaiba!'

"hey Kaiba" I say.


(Kaiba P.O.V)

I need to get sleeping pills. I need sleep!

I wonder if I can steal Mokuba's x-box from his room, no I can't he's a light sleeper, damn. Might as well get up and go buy one and I should go buy another Wii, Mokuba kept dropping it when he moved it to the game room. Then why does he keep his x-box in his room when we have a game room? That kid is weird.

I walk over to my closet and grab my black shirt and pants and my white trench coat. I put on my shoes and leave the mansion.

I wonder what game shops are open at 3 in the morning. At least one better be.

I walk around town looking for a game shop and instead find a dog, the Mutt. The first thing I notice about him is that his pants are on backwards, has the idiot not noticed? Another thing, why is he up at 3, I have an excuse, I can't sleep, but whats his excuse.

"Hello Mutt" I say.

"Hey Kaiba" he says. His chocolate eyes look less energetic and his golden hair seems as if he didn't even try to tame it. He's tired, it's written all over his face but for some reason he's not at home sleeping, why is that?

"Mutt, your pants are on backwards" I said. I couldn't stop myself I just said it, I should have asked him why he's here but the first thing I say is about his pants, I really need to stop waking up at three it's affecting me.

"what?" says Joey, he looks down at the pants and blushes in embarrassment, he looks cute like that, the need for sleep is getting to me, to think that the Mutt is cute is almost disgusting, he's a stray dog!

"my pants are on backwards, great" said Joey.

"why are you here at this hour Mutt"

"not that it's any of your business Kaiba, but I can't sleep"

"what about you? why are you here?"

"I'm going to buy a x-box"

"don't you already have one, I'd think you'd get one even before they came out"

"I already have one, I just want another one"

"can I come too?"

I don't know why I agreed but I did. Maybe because if I didn't he would annoy me until I did agree, but I still could have said no.


(Joey's P.O.V)

I guess this isn't so boring. We've been here for about an hour and so far Kaiba's picked out 16 games he thinks are interesting, that guy is picky.

In that hour I went to the restroom and put my pants on right. Now I know why all those people were staring at me.

"Mutt don't start chewing on anything because I'm not buying anything for you" said Kaiba who was still looking at more games.

"I'm not a dog Kaiba!"
"ya whatever... Mutt, here hold these"

Kaiba hands me all those video games, you don't need that many! I thought this guy ran a company and didn't just sit there all day with a controller in his hand!

"Kaiba you're going to play all of these?" I ask.

"yes"

"don't you have a company to run?"

"yes"

"then how do you have time to play all of these?"

"none of your business Mutt"

"fine then don't get so sensitive"


(one hour later, Kaiba's P.O.V)

I can't believe I did that, it was like someone took over my body. I actually asked if he'd like to play video games at my house, and the worst thing is that he said yes.

So here we are now trying to figure out what button does what because the mutt lost the game instructions.

"Kaiba do you have chips or something?" asked Joey. I'm going to have to feed him now?

"come on Mutt" I say. I get up from the floor and walk over to the kitchen. I open a cabinet and walk away.

"get whatever you want"

Joey simply nods and grabs a bunch of chips and some soda. He walks over and sits next to me on the floor.

I watch the way his face as he eats his food, and yes I know that's creepy but the faces he makes are just so, so cute. A few hours ago I thought that it was disgusting to think of the blond Mutt as cute but now it just doesn't seem disgusting at all.

The way his cheeks puff up when he fills his mouth with food and the way his shiny gold hair falls on his face, it's cute-no beautiful, yes he's beautiful. I don't know how I never saw it before, I've been so blind. I want nothing more than to kiss his light pink lips, but if I do he'll never talk to me again.

Maybe waking up at 3 in the morning isn't so bad, if I didn't wake up at that hour I would have never seen the beautiful creature that was right in front of me this whole time, and yes I know he's an idiot but that's one of the many things that make him who is. Imagine the Mutt being smart, if he was I'd never fall for him, I don't want him to change, ever.

Who knows maybe I'll wake up, walk around and see him tomorrow, and maybe one day I'll kiss him and tell him that he's the most beautiful person ever alive. But for now I just sit here with a controller in my hand, watching the Mutt doing his victory dance every time he kills a group of monsters, and seeing the happiness in those deep chocolate eyes.
