Joey looked for Seto all over the mansion. He didn't think Seto would've gone to the room without him at that time.

"Where did he go? " Joey thought.

He finally gave up and went to the room.

He found Seto with his face buried in his pillow.

"Hey... " Joey said as he gently touched Seto's shoulder blade.

He felt that Seto was shaking.

"Seto? " Joey asked.

As soon as Seto moved slightly, Joey saw that the pillow was wet. Seto was crying.

"What's wrong, babe? " Joey said as he placed an arm around Seto. Seto gently moved Joey's arm away from him.

"Hey... Why did you do that? " Joey asked.

"Joey, if you don't want to have a family or a future with me, just tell me. " Seto cried.

"Seto, that's not it! " Joey said.

"You contradicted me and I felt humiliated in front of Yugi when Mr. Muto asked about adopting kids. " Seto said.

"You interrupted me!" Joey said.

"You know that I saw a future with you, and that future included a family. We've talked about this before, Joey. You've never told me how you really felt. You know that having a family is one of my biggest dreams, and you're the person that I wanted to live that dream with. " Seto said.

"Well, you kept talking about babies and kids and it was getting to the point where it fucking irritated me! " Joey snapped.

Seto just stared at Joey.

"I don't want kids right now, and I'm not sure if I'm gonna want some in the future! I didn't want to hurt you, but I fucking did! Seto Yuki Kaiba, if you have to have a family, maybe I'm not the person you should be with." Joey snapped again.

"Joey-" Seto said.

"Goodnight, Seto. " Joey said as he walked out of the room.

Seto got up and walked to the hallway only to see Joey entering a guest room and locking it.

"We've only been married for two weeks and he said that?" Seto thought.

Joey was right. He hurt Seto.

Seto walked to the guest room where Joey locked himself in.

"Joey, please come out. Let's talk. " Seto said.

"Goodnight, Seto. I'm spending the night here. I don't want to spend it with you. " Joey said.

Those words hurt Seto pretty bad.

Seto walked back to his room and cried himself to sleep.

The next morning, a maid knocked on the door to Seto's room.

"Sirs, breakfast is ready! " She shouted cheerfully.

Joey heard it.

"Thank you! " He shouted from the guest room he stayed in.

"Thank you. " Seto said.

The maid noticed that Seto and Joey's voices came from separate rooms.

"Did Mr. Kaiba and Mr. Wheeler quarrel already? " she thought.

Seto showered, got dressed and walked downstairs.

"Has Joey come down yet? " Seto asked.

"Mr. Wheeler skipped breakfast and went out. " the butler said.

"Oh... " Seto said sadly.

The butler noticed Seto's eyes fill with tears.

"What should I say to him?" the butler thought.

"Thank you, sir. " Seto said. He took his plate to his room and locked himself in.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Joey's wedding band on his nightstand.

"Did he leave me? " Seto thought.

He set down his plate and crawled into bed and cried out loud.

Some of his staff heard it.

"He shouldn't be crying this early in the marriage." One of the maids said.

"Marital distress this early on is a sure indicator of an imminent divorce. " another maid said. Some of the maids nodded.

"Maybe Mr. Wheeler was only interested in Mr. Kaiba's money. " a younger maid said.

"I hope that wasn't the case. There must be an explanation for this. They love eachother very much. I was able to see it in them. " am older maid said.

"And their honeymoon was just two days away... " the butler said.

Seto was asleep.

Two days have passed. Joey had not come home. Mokuba hadn't called in two days. Seto felt extremely lonely.

"Today was supposed to be the day that we'd leave to our honeymoon. " Seto thought. Seto had texted Joey yesterday, but he received no answer.

His phone rang and he picked it up immediately, hoping it was Joey.

"Joey? " Seto said.

"No, Seto. It's Atem. How are you? " Atem asked.

"I can't possibly tell him about how things are going with Joey. " Seto thought.

"I'm doing wonderful, thank you. How are you, Atem? " Seto said.

"I'm doing okay, thanks. I know that you and Joey are probably enjoying your marriage at the moment" Atem said

A tear rolled from Seto's eye.

"I wish. " Seto thought.

"but I called to ask you if you would like to meet for lunch or something. You know... Just so we can talk amicably." Atem said.

"Ah... " Seto said.

"Just as friends. I'll respect you and your marriage, Seto. " Atem said.

"When? " Seto asked.

"Can we meet in an hour? " Atem asked.

"Sure. Text me the place. I'll be there. " Seto said.

"Thank you. I'll see you in a bit. " Atem said.

50 minutes later...

"The French Quarter Cafe... Surely this must be a new place. " Seto said.

He was thankful that Atem didn't want to meet at the restaurant where Joey worked.

Atem was at a table waiting for him and as soon as Seto walked to the host stand, Atem waved at him.

Seto walked over to Atem's table and joined him.

"You look a little stressed, Seto. Is everything okay? " Atem said.

"Yes, everything is fine. " Seto said.

A waiter (who looked like Joey but wasn't Joey ) approached them to take their order.

"I would like a grilled chicken filet with asparagus and rice, please. May I also have a glass of Riesling with that? " Atem said.

"Absolutely. And how about you, sir? " The waiter said.

"May I please have a Greek Goddess salad with grilled chicken and a martini to drink before the meal? " Seto said.

Atem raised an eyebrow.

"Absolutely. I'll go put in your order and fetch your martini. " The waiter said.

"A martini? Typical singles' drink..." Atem said.

Seto dismissed the comment.

"Where is Joey? How come I didn't see you with him, and why in the world did you order a martini? " Atem asked.

Seto was sipping on his water and almost choked.

"Joey had some stuff that he needed to help Serenity with. " Seto lied straight through his teeth.

Atem raised his eyebrow again. He was able to tell that Seto was lying.

"Did you and Joey separate? " Atem asked.

"N-no. That's not what happened!" Seto said frantically.

"Are you sure? " Atem asked.

"Yeah. Joey is a good brother. I know what it's like to be a big brother and to have to always be there for your younger siblings. So, I understand. " Seto said.

Atem was sure that Seto lied again.

The waiter brought Seto his martini and Seto drank it right away.

Seto was lonely these past few days, so he enjoyed Atem's company. He extended the stick and put it in front of Atem. Atem bit the olive off and ate it.

They ate their meal and Seto had an additional two martinis.

"Seto must be drunk. I can't resist. I want him so bad! " Atem said. His member ached.

Seto wasn't quite drunk yet, but he was quite cheerful.

Seto and Atem were walking out of the restaurant. They walked to a nearby park.

"The park is empty and we can hide behind that tree. No one will see us. I must take advantage of this! " Atem thought.

Seto took out his phone to see if Joey had texted him. Sadly, there were no texts from Joey. Atem was distracted, so he texted Joey.

"Joey, please answer me. I really want to talk with you. I love you and and I miss you. " Seto texted and hit send.

Seto and Atem continued to walk.

"Let's go to my house. " Atem said.

"Your house? Why? " Seto asked.

"I wanted to show you something. " Atem said.

Seto was a bit reluctant, but went with Atem anyway. Atem lived nearby.

As soon as they got to Atem's house, Atem showed Seto a grand piano.

"When did you get this? " Seto asked.

"I bought it last week. I'm learning to play the piano. I want to sing and accompany my singing with the piano. " Atem said.

"You picked a great piano. Steinways are great pianos!" Seto said.

"Indeed they are. " Atem crooned. He touched Seto's chest and got really close to him. Seto purred as Atem rubbed around his nipples.

Atem pushed Seto to the sofa and took his shirt off.

"Mmmmm... " Seto said.

Atem kept rubbing his fingers all over Seto's chest.

Atem's erection was really starting to hurt, so he slipped his pants down, freeing his hard member. Seto didn't notice. Atem immediately took Seto's pants off.

"Wait! What are you doing?!" Seto said.

"I want you so bad. Plus, you were enjoying this. " Atem said.

"Maybe I did enjoy it, but I'm not having sex with you." Seto said.

"Come on, Seto. Your body wants it. Your dick is hard too. " Atem said.

"Atem, I promised Joey to remain faithful to him no matter what till death do us part. I love him, and I'm married to him. This was a mistake. " Seto said as he dressed himself up and ran out the door.

Seto ran for six minutes until he reached his car. When he got in his car, he got his phone to check his messages. Unfortunately, there were no texts from Joey.

Seto gave up and called him.

"Hey, this is Joey. Sorry I can't take your call right now. Leave me your name and number, and I will call you back. " was the reply that he got.

Two minutes later, he finally got a reply.

"I can't talk right now. Sorry. "

Seto felt like a sharp knife stabbed him in the heart when he read that.

"Fine. If that's how you feel... " Seto said. He drove away. He passed by the restaurant that Joey worked at and he didn't see him.

Once he arrived at his destination, he took out two luggages and walked into a building.

And hour later.

"Flight 27 to London now boarding. "

"Kaiba! Waiiiiiiit! " He heard a male voice yell.

Seto turned around. It was Yugi.

"Kaiba, I heard about your fight with Joey. Please don't leave. " He said.

"I have to, Yugi. Joey left me and I almost committed adultery today. I need to get out for a little. Bye, Yugi. " Seto said as he walked to the plane.

"Kaiba, please!" Yugi said.

"I want Joey to be happy. If he's going to be happy without me, then I should go away for a while. It'll be OK." Seto said.

Seto suddenly disappeared into the plane as Yugi was trying to stop him from leaving. He sat in the first class area and stared at the empty seat next to him.

"Joey should be there... " He thought. Seto cried a little knowing that he was going to spend his honeymoon alone.

He took out a pen and paper and started to write.

"Here I am, I'm a lonely man

on top of the world

staring at the empty space you left behind." Seto wrote.

"What should I write next? " Seto said as he suddenly lost his inspiration.

A few hours later, he arrived at his destination. He was in London. He took a taxi to a luxury hotel. As soon as he checked in, the bellman was staring at him. He was a very cute bellman.

"I'll help you out with your bags, sir. " He said as he grabbed some of Seto's luggages.

"Thank you. "

"You got quite a huge room, sir. " The bellman said.

"Yeah. It was supposed to be my honeymoon, but I guess my husband had other plans. " Seto said.

"I'm very sorry to hear that. I hope your husband runs back to you. You're a very handsome man. He's lucky to have you." The bellman said.

"Thank you. I hope so too. " Seto said.

"If not, I'm sure you'll easily find someone else." The bellman said.

Seto went into his room and slept in the bed it was late. He decided that he'll call Mokuba in the morning.

Joey was in his room. He started to feel a little bad about leaving Seto.

"Seto isn't going to be happy with me. He wants kids and I don't. I should at least talk to him, apologize and ask for a divorce. " Joey thought.

He tried so hard not to love Seto anymore, but he still loved him.

He didn't change his clothes (he was in his work uniform. A white button up shirt, a black vest, a black tie, black slacks, black dress shoes and a long white lap apron. ) he went out, and rode his bike to the Kaiba mansion.

He went inside and the butler greeted him warmly.

"Greetings, Master Joey. " He said.

"Is Seto home? " Joey asked.

He heard the sound of Seto's car pulling up, but saw one of the drivers drive it.

"I'm sorry, sir. Master Seto left on a trip. I'm not sure when he'll be back. He said that he will contact me. " The butler said.

"Do you know where? " Joey asked.

"He said that he was going to Europe because he felt lonely. " The butler said.

"We were supposed to leave for our honeymoon today... ," Joey thought.

"I'll try to call him again. I'll find out. " Joey said.

Joey tried to call Seto, but Seto did not answer.

He saw that he had a few missed calls from Yugi.

"Yugi might know something. " Joey said. He called Yugi.

"Hey Yuge, I saw that I had a few missed calls from you. What's up? " Joey said.

"It's Kaiba. He's gone... " Yugi said.

"Yeah, I just found out that he went to Europe. " Joey said.

"Europe?! " Yugi said.

"Yup. " Joey said.

"Wait... Mokuba lives in London now. Call him." Yugi said.

"Good idea. " Joey said.

Joey called Mokuba.

"Hey! Sorry that I've missed your call. Please leave a message with your name and number so I can call you back. "

Joey hung up.

He rode his bike to the Game Shop. Yugi's grandpa answered the door.

"Hello, Joey! Come on in! " Grandpa said.

"Thanks, gramps." Joey said.

"How are you doing and where's Kaiba? " He asked.

"I'm not doing too good, gramps. Kaiba and I already got in our first argument and I'm thinking about asking him for a divorce. " Joey said.

"Already? What happened? " Grandpa asked.

"Kaiba is not going to be happy with me. He wants to adopt children and I don't want kids. I made him cry. " Joey said.

"He already wants kids? " Grandpa asked.

"Yeah." Joey said.

"Well, in a way I get it. He lost his parents when he was young and raised Mokuba. Maybe what he wants is a family." Grandpa said.

He took out two pictures.

"This is my wife. She and I were in a similar situation when we had just gotten married. Like Kaiba, she lost both of her parents at a young age and had to raise her sisters. I didn't want to have children because I wanted to continue travelling a lot. Well, long story short, she and I worked out our issues. Two years later, Yugi's mom was born and we still travelled as a family. There will always be disagreements in a marriage. My wife and I agreed and disagreed a lot, but we worked everything out and I still loved her until she died twenty years ago, and even today I still love her and I still miss her very much. Same thing with my daughter. I used to say that I didn't want children, but when my wife told me that we were going to be parents, my mind changed. My daughter was the best gift that my wife gave me, and Yugi was the best gift that my daughter gave me. I love being a grandfather. Children are blessings that multiply. I think that Kaiba should wait and you two should talk and find common ground. " Grandpa said.

"I left Kaiba three days ago, gramps. I left my wedding band on our nightstand. I feel bad because I still love him, but he's just like the typical persistent wife, except he's a man. Yugi tried to stop him, but Kaiba left to Europe. I've been avoiding his phone calls and texts, but now he seems to be avoiding me. " Joey said.

"Why did he go to Europe? " Grandpa asked.

"I don't know. We were supposed to leave for our honeymoon today. I feel so incomplete, gramps. " Joey said.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Go find him in Europe! Europe is not too big! Start in London. Mokuba lives there, so surely he must be in London. " Grandpa said.

"I guess I should. " Joey said.

"Do you need money? " Grandpa asked.

"No gramps. I should have enough. I made good tips this week." Joey said.

"I'll give you some money if you need it. " Grandpa said.

"It's OK, Gramps. I got it. Thank you, though." Joey said.

Joey ran back home to change and pack his bags.

"I'm going to find Kaiba and apologize to him. I don't care where he is in Europe. If I have to search underneath each rock to find him, I will. " Joey said.

Yugi, Tristan and Serenity arrived.

"Joey, why are your bags packed?" Serenity asked.

"I'm going to Europe to find my wife. I mean, husband. " he said.

"We'll take you to the airport. " Yugi said.

-London-

Seto's cell phone rang. He was still asleep but answered.

"Moshi -moshi. " he groaned.

"Hello Seto. You called?" Bakura said.

"Oh. Hey, Angel. " Seto said as he was trying to wake up.

"What's going on? " Bakura said.

""Not much. I'm in London. I wanted to see how you and Mokuba were doing. " Seto said.

"Mokuba is doing great. He got the part that he auditioned for, so he's been on set for a long time. He came back home yesterday and this morning he went back. " Bakura said.

"He got the part? That's great! I'm happy for him! I wish he could've told me.. " Seto said.

"I thought he did... " Bakura said.

"Anyway, how are you, Bakura? " Seto asked. Bakura.

"Oh. I'm doing quite lovely, thank you. " Bakura said.

"Do you want to go for dinner somewhere? You know, so we can catch up? " Seto asked.

"Uh... Sure... Let me know where and when.. " Bakura said.

"You're from here. You pick the place. " Seto said.

"Very well... " Bakura said.

Seto and Bakura were making arrangements to meet and where.

"Perfect. I'll take a quick shower and I will meet you there at six. " Seto said.
