Chapter Eight: Adoption And Papers Part Two
“Vince…we have a problem.”
“Ah, Dr. David Burnhart, I was wondering when you might call. Long time no see, how have you been?” Vince asked while flicking a cigarette into the middle of a busy street in front of Domino High School. “The boss called and told me you were in town and what you were after.” David said into his cell phone. “Uh…hu… and your point being?”
“I know where Jack’s son Joseph is and I know who’s protecting him.” David said while looking at the pole Joey was impaled on not too long ago. “Oh yeah…where is he David?”
“He’s been staying with a patient of mine, a one Seto Kaiba, dose that name ring a bell?” Vince stopped to think for a minute, where had he heard Seto Kaiba before? “Yeah, I think I know him actually, he came over to Jack’s apartment the other night to get some things he said Joey had taken from him, he acted like he hated everything about the Wheelers.”
“Oh no Vince, Seto doesn’t hate Joey at all, for god’s sake they sleep in the same bed together. That sneaky CEO was probably just retrieving some of Joey’s things.” David said, revealing Seto and Joey’s love life to a mob member. “This might turn out to be quite an interesting situation. Meet me and the guys tonight at Domino Pier in the old warehouse and we’ll discuss the down fall of all three persons.” Vince said happily into his phone. “Will do, see ya tonight.”
“Why do I have to go Seto?” Mokuba whined as he and his brother and Joey got into the slick black limo awaiting them. “Because, we need as much reinforcement as we can get to lock away Joey’s father for good. Besides, you saw first hand what all of Joey’s injuries looked like.” Seto explained. Mokuba sighed, his brother was right; he didn’t want to loose Joey any more than his brother did, he would do whatever it took to save the blonde.
The limo pulled up to the police station and Mokuba was the first to hop out of the vehicle, letting Seto help the slowly healing blonde puppy out of the car. Mokuba grabbed the crutches then handed them to Joey when he was clear of the limo. The three of them went into the station and were greeted by a group of worried friends, the very ones that belonged to Joey.
“Joey!!!” Yugi cried as he ran over to his friend, only to be stopped short by Kaiba. “Don’t jump on him, he’s still too badly wounded for that.” Yugi just stared at Joey while the rest of the group (Tea, Tristan, Duke, Ryou, Yami, Marik) came up behind the shorter teen. They were all stunned, they had never seen Joey on crutches before maybe slings and casts but never crutches.
“Whoa, Joey…” Was all Tristan could choke out. “Are you feeling okay Joey?” Tea asked concerned about her long time friend. The blonde smiled softly, “Seto’s been taking care of me, I’m in good hands guys, no need to worry.” Seto smiled and touched his puppy’s face lovingly. Tea stood sorta dumbfounded, ‘Why was Kaiba touching Joey like that? Like he cared for him…maybe even loved him? All I see from these two are fights, not loving touches and sweet gazes. Are they…dare I say it, together? Where have I been?’
“Tea?” Joey asked with a raised eyebrow. She looked up at the blonde, still confused. “Are you alright, you’re just staring at Seto and I.” Joey said. She smiled, “This might sound stupid of me to ask, but…are you and Seto…dating?” She asked. The group sweat dropped and sighed with defeat. Seto shook his head, “You catch on slowly girl.” The brunette’s voice was full of hopelessness for the brown-haired girl. “Hey, what can I do? You and Joey are always fighting, this is just…wow.” And with that Tea left it alone. This was going to be hard to adjust to; Joey Wheeler and Seto Kaiba hugging, touching, and kissing even, Tea had to sit down before she fainted.
“So, why are we here exactly Kaiba?” Tristan asked while sitting down next to Tea. Seto helped Joey to sit down and then explained, “We are here to testify against Joey’s father, get a case against him and maybe even put him behind bars for what he’s put Joey through.”
“I could just mind crush the guy and get it over with, it would be much easier and less expensive too.” Yami said while crossing his arms in front of his chest. Kaiba smirked, he liked that idea but it was too late now. “Let’s just wait and see what kind of case we get, if it seems hopeless that Joey wouldn’t win then I’ll let you mind crush anyone you wish pharaoh.” Kaiba said.
“Can I help you?” A voice came from behind the CEO. He turned and nodded, “Yeah, we were called down here for questioning.” Kaiba answered. “On what case?” A policewoman asked. “One on a Joseph Wheeler’s behalf.” The woman nodded and brought them to Officer Brooks.
“Sir.” She said. The officer looked up from his desk and stood up. “Mr. Kaiba.” He said while holding out his right hand. Kaiba and shook it and smiled weakly. “Glad to see you could all make it, the more people on your side the better.” Brooks said while looking at Joey then Seto.
“What’s going on over here?” The sheriff asked while coming over to Brooks. “Sir, these are all the people participating in the Wheeler case, on Joey’s side of course.” The group introduced themselves. “Alright, well the next step is fun, I need you guys to fill out police reports, explaining in excruciating detail what has gone on behind the door of the Wheeler household.” The sheriff said seriously. He brought them to a secluded room and sat the group at a table so they could work, though he stayed to make sure that they wrote their own report instead of the person’s next to them. That took a good hour then a doctor came in and took blood from Joey so it could be tested against the other samples. Finally, after waiting another hour questioning was ready to begin. The group was lead to a room with a one-way window, they watched as Joey’s father was seated at a table and locked into the room with Officer Brooks.
“State your name sir.”
“Jack Ethan Wheeler.”
“How old are you?”
“Thirty-seven.”
“Where do you live?”
“I live on Carson and Applewood, in apartment K, number 1020.”
“How long have you lived there?”
“Eleven years.”
“Are you married?”
“No.” Jack replied with a bit of frustration in his voice.
“Divorced?”
“Yes.” Growled the man.
“Why did you divorce your wife?”
Jack stumbled a bit but then answered, “I didn’t love her any more.”
“Why?”
“I got board of her.”
Officer Brooks was a bit disgusted at that answer but he kept his feelings to himself. “Do you have any children?”
“Yeah two: Serenity Jean Wheeler and Joseph Nathaniel Wheeler…well…one now, I disown the boy.”
“Why do you disown Joseph?”
“Because the son of a bitch is a fag.”
“You disown your son because he’s a homosexual?”
Jack grunted, that sounded too elegant for his son, fag was more like it.
“You disown your son because he’s a homosexual?” Brooks repeated.
“YEP.”
“Why…are you homophobic?”
“Yep.”
“Is that why you think you can abuse your son?”
“I never abused my son, why would you say something like that?”
“I could beg to differ Mr. Wheeler. In your apartment, we found a substantial amount of blood that we just discovered belongs to your son. Can you explain why he would bleed like that?”
“Maybe he fell and cracked his nose, the boy’s a klutz, trips over his own feet.”
“Mr. Wheeler how much do you think you drink nightly?”
“Don’t know.”
“Will you admit to being an alcoholic?”
“Yep.”
“Will you admit to abusing your son?”
“Nope.”
Officer Brooks shook his head and waved at the glass, he was done with Jack. Two officers took the man back to his comfy cell for the night. The sheriff looked at Joey and nodded, “Your turn kid.” Joey pulled himself up out of his chair and entered the next room. Officer Brooks invited the blonde to a seat and he took it. Before questioning began Joey looked to the glass. Seto smiled, he knew the gaze was meant for him.
“State your name.”
“Joseph Nathaniel Wheeler.”
“How old are you?”
“Sixteen.”
“Where do you live?”
“Currently I am residing with one Seto Kaiba.”
“What is your relationship to Seto Kaiba?”
“We’re dating…so boyfriend would be the correct answer.”
“How long have you been dating?”
“Seven almost eight months.”
“Are you sexually active with Seto Kaiba?”
“Yes.”
“For about how long have you two been sleeping together?”
“Five months.”
“How far into your relationship with Seto Kaiba was it when your father found out about your sexuality?”
“Well, in truth, my father never knew about my relationship with Seto, he thought I was sleeping with a close friend. But my father found out about my sexuality a couple days ago, the last day I was at home, when he abused me last.” Joey explained.
“What friend did he believe you were sleeping with?”
“My best friend, Yugi Mutou.”
“Why didn’t your father know about your relationship with Seto Kaiba?”
“My father didn’t know for a couple reasons: 1) He would have beat me till I was dead and bloody. 2) I wanted a safe place to go to when he was a crazy drunk, a place where he wouldn’t think to check, an enemy’s house.
“What do you mean by crazy drunk?”
“I mean abusive and violent. I wanted a place to retreat to, a place where I felt loved and wanted.”
Officer Brooks smiled at Joey then nodded at the glass. “Your turn Mr. Kaiba.” The sheriff spoke. The brunette pushed himself out his chair and met Joey at the doorframe, they exchanged a quick kiss then Kaiba was seated in the questioning room with Brooks.
“State your name.”
“Seto Kaiba.”
“How old are you?”
“Sixteen, almost seventeen.”
“Where do you live?”
“2270 Honors St. Domino, Japan.”
“Is a Joseph Nathaniel Wheeler currently residing with you?”
“Yes.”
“What is your relationship to Joseph Wheeler?”
“Dating, he’s my boyfriend.”
“How long have you been dating?”
“Seven, almost eight months.”
“Are you sexually active with Joseph Wheeler?”
“Yes.”
“How long have you been sleeping together?”
“Five months.”
“Seeing as how you two are intimately involved, are you always Joseph’s first resort, are you the first to see his wounds and hear about the event?”
“Yes.”
“How many times, if any, has Joey been sent to the hospital because of his father’s actions?”
“Joey has been sent to the hospital four times in the last two years, twice last year and twice this year, this last time was the last straw.”
“Explain to me what happened the first three times.”
“Well, the first two times were before our relationship but Yugi did ask me to help. I remember that the first hospital visit was for a minor concussion, due to a blow to the back of Joey’s head by a wine bottle.”
“How did you know it was a bottle?”
“The doctors found traces of wine in his hair and bottle shards imbedded into his head.”
“What was the second trip for?”
“Joey was poisoned by his father, we caught it early enough before it caused any real damage.”
“What kind of poison was it?”
“Rat poison.”
“The doctor’s determined that?”
“Yes.”
“What was the third visit for?”
“A broken left arm.”
“How was it broken?”
“Joey’s father was swinging a metal bat at him and out of defense, Joey lifted his arms and his left was the victim.”
“What was the last visit for?”
“Joey was knocked back onto metal pole due to a back hand by his abusive father. He fell onto the pole and was impaled in his right leg.”
“Thank you Mr. Kaiba, your statement will prove helpful.” Brooks said while he and Kaiba stood up. The brunette left the room and watched as Yugi was up next. The rest of the group’s questioning went about the same as the first three but what caught Officer Brooks’ attention was the story told by Yugi, Yami, Tristan, and Tea, about the five men that broke into their homes demanding to know the where abouts of Joey. Finally after all the questioning was done the group was getting ready to leave when Kaiba’s personal doctor showed up.
“Dr. Burnhart, I wondering where you were.” Kaiba said a bit annoyed. “Sorry I was late, I do have other patients you know.” Kaiba shook his head and watched as the doctor was taken and questioned. He showed the pole to Officer Brooks and let him take it for evidence. Kaiba was happy that his doctor complied and confirmed what everyone had said about Joey’s injuries.
The group was sent home to rest their minds and put their bodies at ease, but not before they were informed that there would in fact be a case against Jack Wheeler for abuse of his sixteen-year-old son.
“Mr. Kaiba, since Joey has been staying with you, I assume it would be alright if he stayed with you until he finds his own place?” Brooks asked the young CEO. “Why would he need to do that, he’s more than welcome to stay with me, actually I’d rather him do that anyway, I’ve already adopted him.” The officer nodded and smiled, letting Kaiba be on his way.
The group decided that instead of going home they all wanted to go out to eat for dinner. They went to a popular buffet and ate their fair share of food.
7:47 pm
