Chapter Eight
CHAPTER EIGHT:
Sitting in my office that night, I couldn’t get any work done. 1 am. Those two were probably fucking right now. They’d be leaving soon and that would be it.
When I admit it, I don’t know what I was expecting. I may have understood Joey’s hesitation in ending his relationship with Tristan, but that didn’t mean I condoned it. I’m Seto Kaiba. I don’t share with anyone, least of all with some idiot who can’t even see his boyfriend doesn’t love him anymore.
My eyes sting and my throat starts to tighten. Must be from lack of sleep.
“Sometimes when I’m with Tristan. I wish it was…you”
I closed my laptop, resting my head on the desk.
“Who do you think I’m in love with?”
“Joey.”
It didn’t really matter if I was in love with him or not.
“Me and Tristan’s 3 year anniversary is this weekend. And um…he wants us to go away for a few nights. At some resort.”
With a groan, I got up, roughly shoving my chair in and walking to the door. As I reached for the handle, someone knocked. I opened it, turning around to grab something before the maid came in to clean.
“You can just leave the--”
I stopped upon turning around, seeing Joey standing there.
“Hey…um, the maid let me in.” He sniffed, his eyes were red and swollen, his face tracked with tears.
“What happened?” Joey took a breath, trying to speak before he broke down in sobs, collapsing into my arms.
“It’s—It’s over.” He whispered, hugging me tighter. I wasn’t sure what to do or say, so I just held him while he cried. I don’t know what happened when he told Tristan but it didn’t matter now.
His face stayed buried in the crook of my neck, I could feel his tears dripping down on my skin, mixed with the feeling of his hot breath at the nape of my neck. After awhile the tears stopped but he stayed there.
I felt lips on my skin, soft kisses. He slid his hand down my side and to the front, pulling at my pants before I quickly pulled it away.
“No.” I whispered, holding his hand.
“Why?”
“Because you’re not ready.” He didn’t say anything, just nodded slightly, pulling me closer.

At school, we stayed apart. It was hard seeing how upset Joey was and not being able to do or say anything. But after seeing Tristan, Joey’s grief seemed not to compare. I took my seat at lunch alone, scanning the room for Joey or Tristan. Neither were present. I noticed Yami sitting and laughing with Yugi, Ryou and Malik. He sat close to Yugi, the two stealing glances or small touches. I’m glad he found someone. I was happy for him. I hoped Yugi could give him something I never could. No matter how much I tried.
It was minutes later that Tristan entered, his face seemed blank as he took his seat. As if he was in complete shock. The group quieted on seeing him, his first words to the group inaudible. I strained my ears to listen, surprised when Tristan suddenly jumped up, slamming his hands on the table.
“He said he was in love with someone else and he couldn’t take lying to me any longer! He was FUCKING CHEATING ON ME! He-he doesn’t love me anymore!” Tristan collapsed into sobs.
My eyes traveled to the door as Joey walked in. Looking back at Tristan I saw his eyes widen before mumbling something and quickly leaving. Joey watched him leave before sitting alone at an empty table, his face full of guilt and regret. I think Joey had hoped they could remain friends, something that looked like would never happen.
“Who do you think it is?” I heard Malik ask. My heart quickened, worried that Yami would say something. Our eyes locked for a brief moment before he looked away, never contributing to the conversation. It wasn’t the right time for others to know.
I glanced back over to Joey’s table, but he was gone. I quickly looked around, my eyes falling on his retreating form entering the bathroom. I wanted to follow, to hear what was going on, but it wasn’t my business. He would tell me in time.
Neither emerged for the rest of lunch, even after the bell rang. I saw a few people go in, only to quickly leave. What was going on in there? I finally left them behind. There was nothing I could do. I would just see them in class.
I took my seat. “Be careful Seto.” Yami said, taking his seat next to me.
But Joey and Tristan never returned. Neither of them were seen for the rest of the day. I could think of nothing else driving home.
I worried that perhaps Joey couldn’t go through with it. Maybe he still had feelings for Tristan or what if Tristan convinced him to stay? I was shaken from my thoughts when from the end of my driveway, I could see someone sitting on the stoop.
Joey.
I quickly got out of the car, walking quickly to his shaking form. I sat down next to him, wrapping my arm around him. His knees were held close to his chest, his head resting on his arms.
“Do you want to talk about it?” he lifted his head up, shaking it.
“It was awful Seto. He wouldn’t stop crying and screaming. He kept saying he was going to kill himself. I-I didn’t know what to do! What if he really does it Seto?”
“He said he was going to kill himself?” I asked in disbelief. He nodded.
“Do you think he really will?” He just shook his head.
“I don’t know! I’ve never seen him like that Seto. He was hysterical.”
I sighed, rubbing his back. “What should we do?” I asked.
“I don’t know, Seto. I don’t know.”
AN: No more updates until Sunday--I'm off to Ireland. Hooray!
