The blonde
haired girl walks into the restaurant and looks around at all the arcade games
in dismay. She turns to Joey who enters behind her. “Why would you bring me
here? Is it because I’m young?”
“That’s not
it. I really like being here. I don’t come often and normally Seto’s with me.
Can we at least give it a shot?” replies Joey.
The girl
huffs but walks further into the kiddie wonderland. “So far I’m unimpressed!”
“Yeah. Seto
said that on our first date here,” says Joey guiding the girl to a fairly
secluded booth.
A waiter
approaches and passes them two menus. “Can I get you anything to drink right
away?”
“Coffee,”
says the girl.
“Hot
cocoa,” says Joey.
The girl
looks over the menu in disgust. “Um… do they have anything edible here?”
Joey
glances at the waiter’s retreating back. “Of course they do. I think you would
like Seto’s usual. It’s not on the menu, but it’s very good.”
“Fine. You
can order for me.” The girl looks around. “It’s quieter than I thought it would
be.”
“Well, it
is the middle of the day, but this booth is usually like this.”
The waiter
returns with two cups and two carafes. He sets them down along with a bowl of
sugar cubes, a pitcher of cream, and a bowl of mini-marshmallows. “The red lid
is cocoa, and the black is coffee. Are you ready to order?”
“The young
lady will have the owner’s special, and I’ll have Pasta Puttanesca,” says Joey.
“Very good.
I’ll be back with your food shortly.” The waiter turns and leaves.
“Owner’s
special?”
“Kaiba
Corps owns this place. So Seto makes sure that they serve something he likes…
The owner’s special is a hot ham and cheese sandwich with a chef salad. The
Pasta Puttanesca I’m getting is made in a true Puttanesca style,” says Joey,
“They throw leftovers in a pot and cook it!”
The girl
raises an eyebrow.
“It uses
macaroni noodles from the Mac and Cheese… sausage, bell peppers, olives, and
tomatoes from the pizza, polish sausage and onions from the hot dog counter…
and they make a sauce for it from the marinara and garlic alfredo that they put
on pizza,” says Joey, “It’s good. I like it.”
“What else
do you have planned for today?” asks the girl as the waiter returns with their
food. “That was quick!”
“We pride
ourselves on prompt service,” says the waiter before asking if they needed
anything else and leaving.
“We have a
few options actually,” says Joey, “The art museum, the science museum, the
aquarium, or we could go see a movie. There’re two movies in the theater I
think Seto would like, so I figured you might as well. One’s a foreign film
with subtitles and the other’s an independent arts film.”
“Do you
usually have trouble planning your dates with Seto?” The girl takes a bite of
her sandwich. “This is very good.”
Joey
smiles. “I don’t have any problems planning dates for Seto… well, except for
occasionally having to book time with his secretary if I want to do something
during the day. I know Seto well enough that I can plan dates we’ll both
enjoy.”
“If he were
here with you, instead of me, what would you do today?”
“Well… if
he wanted to go to the art museum, we would go look at the paintings. He would
tell me his impressions, and then we’d take a lesson in painting or pottery or
whatever they were teaching today in the side gallery. He would enjoy looking
at all the art, and I would enjoy making art! Plus we’d be together!” Joey
pushes his plate closer to the girl. “Would you like to taste the pasta?”
“Oh. Thank
you.” The girl lifts her fork and lifts a bite of the food to her mouth. “It’s
nice. Not great, but it’s okay.”
“Both Seto
and I would have fun at the science museum,” says Joey pulling his plate back
and starting to eat, speaking between bites, “He likes to figure out how things
work, and I like to test them to see if they do!”
“So he
let’s you push the buttons on the displays…”
Joey nods.
“Yeah.”
“And at the
aquarium?”
“I love the
dolphin and whale shows, and he loves to relax and watch the fish swim above us
in the underwater tunnel. It’s very tranquil,” says Joey, “We’ve stayed down
there cuddling for hours.”
“Okay. So I
can understand that, but what about the movies? You two don’t like the same
type, do you? How do you choose a movie?”
“We talk
about it. We don’t like the same type of movies, but we’re willing to
compromise. He’ll watch an action flick with me, and I’ll watch a French film
with him. As a general rule, the person who plans the date picks the movie,”
explains Joey, “so when he plans the date we go to a movie he likes.”
“Do you
like that?”
“I might
not enjoy the movie, but I do like having his arm around me when we watch it.”
“Have you
ever fallen asleep during one of his movies?”
“No. If the
movie bores me too much, I watch him,” says Joey.
“Can we go
to the aquarium?” asks the girl finishing her sandwich.
Joey grins.
“Yeah!”
* * *
The young
boy fidgets nervously when Seto leads him into an upscale restaurant. “Am I
dressed okay for this place?”
“When
you’re with me, there is no dress code,” says Seto with a small smile.
“Mr. Kaiba,
sir! Right this way. We have your usual table waiting,” says the Maitre D’
guiding them into the restaurant. He seats them in a moderately well lit booth.
“Would you care for something…?”
“I’ll have
my usual,” says Seto briskly. He turns to the boy. “What would you like to
drink?”
“Um… I
don’t know?”
“He’ll have
Joey Wheeler’s usual.”
“Very good,
sir,” says the Maitre D’ heading off to place the drink orders.
“Do you
bring Joey here a lot?”
“Frequently
enough,” says Seto, “He loves to eat, and the food here is delightful.”
The boy
opens his menu. “I can’t read this.”
Seto
smirks. “Neither can Joey.”
“So…” Brown
eyes widen when he realizes that Seto’s moves to sit beside him.
“I’ll
translate the menu for you,” says Seto, “This first part is the appetizers.
Liver pate…”
“Yuck.”
“Snails…”
“Yuck!”
“A fruit
and cheese plate…” Seto continues to translate the French words for the boy.
“What does
Joey like here?”
“The
Niçoise salad, steak au Poivre, and all the desserts. Joey’s tried everything
on the menu at least once. I have to commend him on his willingness to
experiment with food,” says Seto, “He’ll try anything once. That way he can
decide if it’s good or not.”
“Doesn’t he
feel out of place here? I mean, this is a fancy establishment…”
“Sometimes.
Our first time here, he was wearing tattered jeans and a faded T-shirt. He
didn’t feel like he belonged because everyone else was dressed so nice. He
didn’t believe me when I told him no one cared about what he was wearing so the
next time I brought him we were both wearing some of his more ‘well worn’
clothes. He finally realized that no one cared what he wore,” explains Seto,
“He was simply seen as a wealthy eccentric.”
“So what
else do you have planned for us today?”
“I wasn’t
sure what you’d like to do so we have some options,” says Seto, “The art museum
has a hands-on pottery demonstration. The science museum just opened a new
astronomy wing. The aquarium has their dolphin and whale show. We could go see
a movie, or there’s always Kaibaland amusement park.”
“Kaibaland!”
exclaims the boy.
Seto smiles
and nods.
The waiter
comes up. “Are you ready to order or do you need more time?”
“I don’t
know what to get,” says the boy.
“Would you
just start us with a sampling menu of appetizers, and we’ll continue discussing
meal options?”
“Of course,
sir…”
“You can
order anything you like,” says Seto as the waiter walks away, “even if it’s not
on the menu. If you’d like spaghetti, order it.”
“I’d like
pizza,” says the boy.
Seto
smiles.
“Just like
Joey, right?”
“Yeah.”
Seto nods to the waiter who hurries up to take their order. He quickly places
his order of oysters on the half-shell.
“And for
you, sir?” asks the waiter smiling at the brown-eyed boy.
“I’d like a
cheese pizza!”
“Absolutely,”
says the waiter, “Anything else?”
“No. Just
that.”
“I will be
back shortly then,” says the waiter walking away.
“You and
Joey don’t seem to have much in common. How have you managed to stay together
all this time?”
“We love
each other. We’ve learned to compromise. We do have a lot of differences, but
we share a common foundation,” says Seto, “We both give a little and meet
half-way.”
“Do you
ever fight?”
“All the
time, but then we work through it together.”
“So have
you ever asked Joey to marry you?” asks the boy.
“Not yet.”
Seto smirks.
“Not yet?”
“I’m going
to. I have his engagement present ready, and I have an idea of how I want to
ask him. The time just hasn’t been right,” says Seto.
“Then you
need to make the time right! Plan out a romantic evening and just ask him!”
exclaims the boy.
The waiter
steps up and deposits the appetizer sampler in front of them.
“Feel free
to try anything you want. If you don’t like it, spit it out into your napkin,”
says Seto.
“Okay…”
“How do you
think I should propose to Joey?”
“At the top
of the Ferris wheel at Kaibaland. It gives a great view, and it’s a romantic
enough ride,” says the boy, “It would be a nice ending to a day where you two
did all the things Joey likes to do.”
“Joey hates
the Ferris wheel. He likes the fast rides, which would be near impossible to
propose on. I was thinking of asking him at the aquarium. We’ve spent hours
together watching the fish in the underwater tunnel. I’m thinking of asking him
there.”
The boy’s
eyes light up. “I know what would be cool!”
“What?”
“If you
have a diver swimming down there with a sign asking Joey to marry you! It can
read ‘Joey. Will you marry me? Seto.’ That would be so cool!”
Seto
smiles. “Joey would love that.”
* * *
Brown eyes
bore into blue. “What do you think?”
“I’m still
unsure.”
“Alyssa!
What’s to be sure about?”
“I don’t
want to get in a worse situation…”
“Do you
like Seto?”
“Yes.”
“Do you
like Joey?”
“Surprisingly,
yes.”
“So what’s
to think about? You like them. I like them. I think we should work with them!”
“Teddy…”
“Alyssa…”
“I still
think more research is needed, but we can continue…”
“Alyssa!
Teddy! You have visitors!”
Blue eyes
and brown glance at each other in confusion before their owners get up and head
into the living room.
“Hi!”
exclaims Joey, “I know we didn’t have anything planned today, but I talked Seto
into being spontaneous.”
“And you
want us to join you?” asks the girl.
“Yeah.
You’ve spent time with us one-on-one, but not together,” says Joey.
“Would you
like to join us today?” asks Seto.
“Can we?”
asks the boy. He looks at the girl with a puppy dog pout on his face.
“Please?”
asks Joey also laying down the puppy dog eyes.
“Yes. We’ll
come,” says the girl, “Now put away the eyes!”
“Don’t
worry. We’ll have you home early,” says Seto, “It’s a bit chilly. You might
want a jacket.”
The boy and
girl grab jackets before following Joey and Seto out to the limo.
“So what
are we doing?” asks the girl.
“I know!
Let’s grab the gang and head to the park! We can play touch football!” exclaims
Joey.
“I am not
playing football,” says the girl.
“That’s
okay. You and Téa could cheer or talk or whatever girls do when boys are being
stupid and macho,” says Joey.
“Téa never
joins the football games,” says Seto, “The boys do sometimes forget that it’s
touch and not tackle.”
“Yugi only
tackled her once, and he’s so small she couldn’t even have felt it!” exclaims
Joey.
“How about
we play a different game?” asks the girl, “A board game? Card game?”
“Yugi does
have a nice collection of games at the shop,” says Seto.
“Okay,”
says the boy.
The limo
soon pulls up in front of the Kame Game Shop, and its occupants hurry into the
shop’s back room.
“Hey, guys!
I was just closing up,” says Yugi popping his head into the back room. He sees
the kids and smiles. “Hi! I’m Yugi! Make yourselves at home! We’ll do the
formal intros in a few minutes.”
“Do you
need any help, Yugi?” asks Joey.
“No, I’m
fine!” exclaims Yugi ducking back into the shop to finish closing the shop for
the afternoon and night.
“Come on.
The living area’s upstairs,” says Joey leading them all up the narrow
staircase.
“Hey, Joey!
Seto! You made it!” exclaims Tristan seeing the group arrive, “And you brought
more friends! Cool! I’m Tristan Taylor.”
“Nice to
meet you,” says the girl politely.
Yugi runs
up the stairs behind them. “All done!”
Téa comes
out of the kitchen with a tray holding a pot of coffee, cups, and some canned
sodas. She smiles. “I’ve got the drinks!”
“Okay.
Introductions! I’m Yugi Motou, co-owner of the Kame Game Shop! My Grandpa still
owns half, but he’s away visiting friends right now so I’m left managing the
shop,” says Yugi smiling at the kids.
“Right! I’m
Tristan, and I work at a motorcycle repair shop.”
“I’m Téa
Motou, Yugi’s wife. I’m going to school to be a dancer, ballet mostly,” says
Téa, “What would you like to drink?”
“Soda!”
says the boy.
“Coffee,
please. I’m Alyssa.”
“Oh, and
I’m Teddy!”
“We thought
we’d play a game,” says Seto.
“Okay,”
says Yugi, “Alyssa, Teddy, would you two like to pick?” He waves his arm at a
closet filled with games.
“Yeah!”
exclaims Teddy sliding the door open. He smiles happily.
Téa smiles
as she passes Alyssa a cup of coffee. “It’s nice to have another girl around.”
“Are you
close to Joey and Seto?” asks Alyssa.
“I’m closer
to Joey, but I know Seto well enough. They’re good guys. They’ve only gotten
nicer since they’ve found love in each other,” says Téa, “What do you think of
them?”
“I’m not
sure what to think,” says Alyssa, “Teddy seems to really like them.”
“How about
Clue?” asks Teddy.
“Only six
people can play that,” says Alyssa, “There are seven of us.”
“You all
could play, and I could make dinner,” says Téa.
“Are you
sure, Téa? We could order take-out,” says Seto.
“Next time,
okay? I have the meat defrosted already,” says Téa, “Is spaghetti okay for
everyone?”
“That would
be fine,” says Alyssa.
Teddy
quickly gets the game set up. “Okay! Let’s play!”
* * *
“Your
friends are very nice,” says Alyssa.
“I really
like Yugi,” says Teddy.
“They’re a
great bunch of friends,” says Joey, “I’m lucky to have them!”
“We’ll
contact you soon,” says Alyssa before climbing out of the limo with Teddy.
Joey and
Seto watch them head into the building.
“What do
you think, Joey?”
“It’s
amazing you think that I think…” Joey sighs. “Sorry. Old habits die hard.”
Seto pulls
Joey into his arms. “I love you, Joey.”
“I love you
too, Seto. I want kids!”
“I know. I
want to be a father as well. Although I think you’ll be much better at it than
I would be,” says Seto.
“You’ll be
a wonderful father,” says Joey snuggling into Seto’s arms.
“So what do
you think?”
“I’m
hopeful, but I’m still scared.”
“Scared?
Why?”
“It would
be a big change. When we get kids, we won’t be able to do it all over the house
anymore. We’ll have someone else in our lives to take care of. There will be
sports and recitals and parent-teacher conferences and meetings with the
principal when they misbehave!”
“It’s an
awful lot to deal with.”
“But I
think I’m ready for it,” says Joey, “You?”
“Well… It
might take a while before I’m ready to give up ravishing you wherever I find
you, but I’ll try.” Seto smirks. “I am ready for a new addition…”
“Good. I
love you.”
* * *
Joey
whimpers with need as Seto slides a hand into his opened pants. “Take me, Seto…
please!”
“Oh, don’t
worry, baby. I will!” Seto fumbles in a drawer one-handed and pulls out a tube
of lubricant.
The phone
on the desk buzzes before Seto’s secretary comes through it to announce,
<< Mr. Kaiba, Mr. Wheeler, your one-thirty appointment has arrived.
>>
“What?”
asks Joey glaring at Seto, “You made another appointment?”
Seto
presses a button. “What one-thirty appointment?”
<<
Miss Alyssa and Mr. Teddy. >>
“Shit!”
Joey scrambles off Seto’s desk and dashes towards the bathroom.
Seto
hurries to hide the lubricant and toys from his desktop. He straightens his
clothes before pressing the button. “Send them in.”
Joey steps
out of the bathroom fully dressed before the door opens so Alyssa and Teddy can
come in.
Alyssa
smirks as she walks up to take a seat in front of Seto. “We weren’t
interrupting, were we?”
“Not at
all,” says Joey, “We were just discussing a few things.”
“Like how
to get in each other’s pants,” says Alyssa, “but we didn’t come here just to
interrupt your office sex.”
“We’ve made
our decision,” says Teddy.
Joey walks
over to Seto and grips his shoulder apprehensively.
“We’ve
decided that more research is necessary,” says Alyssa.
Joey’s
shoulders slump.
“However!
We see no reason that we can’t do that research while living with you,” says
Teddy smiling.
“You
mean…?” Seto looks at the kids hopefully.
Alyssa and
Teddy look at each other and smile.
“Pleased to
meet you. I’m Theodore Kaiba. Call me Teddy.”
“It’s an
honor to meet you. I’m Alyssa Wheeler.”
“Can I hug
you?” asks Joey quickly.
“You may…”
Joey nearly
jumps over the desk in his rush to embrace both Alyssa and Teddy at once. Tears
fall from his eyes as he pulls away. “Welcome to the family.”
Seto walks
around the desk and sets his hand on Teddy’s shoulder.
Teddy
throws his arms around Seto’s waist. “Can we call you both Dad?”
Seto’s
heart melts, and he embraces Teddy warmly. “I would like that.”
“There is
one thing, Alyssa,” says Joey timidly.
“What is
it… Dad?” asks Alyssa.
“Your last
name should be Kaiba, not Wheeler. Seto and I have already decided that I’ll
change my name when we get married,” says Joey, “and I want you both to have
your father’s last name.”
“Yes,
Mommy!” exclaims Alyssa.
Joey
blushes beet red. “Why you little scamp!”
“Sorry,
Dad, but you have to admit… you kind of asked for that!” Alyssa smiles.
“Now we
just need to get you two married!” exclaims Teddy, “And Joey could wear a
Cinderella wedding dress!”
Seto eyes
up Joey for a moment, picturing the dress upon his lover’s lean form. “I
wouldn’t ask him to do that.”
“Too bad. I
think it’s a great idea!” exclaims Joey, “I’d dress up like a girl for you,
Seto…”
“So it’s
decided. Joey will be Cinderella and Seto will be the Prince for the wedding!”
Alyssa smiles. “But one of you has to propose!”
“Believe
me. I’m working on it,” says Joey, “Now! Who wants to go out for lunch?”
“You’re
thinking of asking me to marry you, Joey?” asks Seto, “Why haven’t you yet?”
“Poor
timing,” says Joey.
Seto pulls
Joey to his chest, and he wraps his arms tightly around his waist. “There’s
never a poor time to tell me how much you love me.”
“I love you
so much, Seto. Marry me?”
“Better,”
says Seto, “This proposal was much better than your last.”
“So what’s
your answer?” asks Joey.
“I’ll give
it to you later.” Seto runs his hand down Joey’s side suggestively.
“How about
that lunch?” asks Teddy.
“Then maybe
a trip to the aquarium,” suggests Seto.
Teddy
smiles knowingly. “Let’s go!”
* * *
Teddy and
Alyssa move closer to the glass to watch the fish swimming by while Seto and
Joey sit down on a bench.
Joey leans
back against Seto and looks through the glass. “I love doing this…”
“I love
you,” says Seto pulling a box from his pocket.
Teddy
nudges Alyssa and points back at Seto. They smile at each other as they watch
Seto and Joey.
Seto passes
the box to Joey. “This is something I’ve wanted to give you for a long time,
but I’ve never thought the time was right. I realize now that it was always the
right time as long as you were with me. I love you, Joey, and I want to spend
the rest of my life with you. I will marry you. Will you marry me?”
Joey opens
the box and looks at the thick chain of the necklace. He smiles. “Yes, Seto.
I’ll marry you.”
“He said
yes!” exclaims Teddy.
Alyssa
smiles. “There’s a lot that still needs to be done before we’re a real family.”
“The
paperwork is mostly done,” says Seto, “It just needs to be finalized now that
you’ve decided to become our son and daughter.”
“Do you
think the orphanage headmaster would let them come home with us tonight?” asks
Joey.
“Not if we
tell him we don’t want to go with you tonight,” says Alyssa.
Joey gasps.
“Why wouldn’t you…?”
“Yeah. Why
wouldn’t we?” asks Teddy.
“Because we
interrupted them this afternoon, and they just became engaged. They need some
alone time,” says Alyssa, “If the headmaster allows it, we can go over this
weekend.”
“That is
very considerate of you,” says Seto, “Although we’ve ensured our privacy in our
room.”
“Soundproofing,
huh?” asks Alyssa, “Cool!”
“We’ll
still let you have tonight to yourselves,” says Teddy, “We can start being a
family this weekend! You can have tonight to… well, you know!”
Joey
smiles. “Yeah. Sounds good… Anyone want to see the dolphin show before we go?”
“Not
today,” says Teddy, “Take us back to the orphanage. We’ll start packing so that
later, you can take us home.”
“Home… that
sounds nice,” says Alyssa.
“We think
so too,” says Seto, “How would you like your rooms decorated?”
“Warrior
Duel Monsters!” exclaims Teddy at the same time Alyssa says, “Fairy Duel
Monsters!”
“Fairies
and Warriors. Got it!” exclaims Joey, “I’ll see if I can find some stuff for
your rooms then. When you move in we can finish the decorating.”
“Okay,
Dad!”
* * *
My family
is not the most conventional. We’re all orphans. My dad, Seto, was orphaned as
a child alone with my uncle, Mokuba. My other dad, Joey, was orphaned when he
fell in love with Seto. My aunt Serenity disowned her parents for disowning
Joey. The other member of my family is my sister, Alyssa. We were both orphaned
when our parents died in an accident. My family isn’t the most conventional.
We’re not a family by blood. We’re a family by choice. We choose to love each
other. I miss my old family, but I love my new family just as much. – Teddy
Kaiba
