Chapter Nineteen: Returning to School & More Surprises

 

Seto kneeled onto the bed, buttoning his school top. Using his free hand he gently shook Joey's shoulder.

“Come on Puppy its time to wake up, we have to get ready for school,” He laughed. Moving his hand away just in time to avoid Joey smacking him. Sitting up Joey glared at him before yawing. Stretching the night shirt she wore rose slightly to show alittle of her skin on her stomach.

Seto smiled while handing Joey a package. She raised an eyebrow, looking up at him confused. Making a gesture for her to open it was the only response she got out of him. Opening it, slowed down by the bandages on her arms she gasped. Inside was the uniform girls wore at their school.

“I thought maybe you would rather wear this instead of your other clothes…that is if you want,” Seto mumbled while rubbing the back of his head. Joey sat the clothes down next to her before standing up. Wrapping her arms around him she hugged him tightly.

“Perfect, thank you Seto,” She said against his neck. Seto smiled while hugging her back gently. Letting go she smiled while removing her night shirt. Pulling on her undergarments she pulled on the skirt, using her hand to smooth it out. Moving to put her shirt on she buttoned it before looking over at Seto. He laughed while moving to put the tie on.

Joey smiled at him as the two made it down stairs where Mokuba was already to leave. Joey laughed as Mokuba pounded out the door. Throwing their bags in the back seat with Mokuba Seto drove off. Stopping for Mokuba he gave both a hug before grabbing his bag and jumping out of the car.

Getting to the high school Seto stopped in his usual spot. He looked over hearing Joey let out a deep breath. Pulling her over into his lap he gently rubbed her back. Feeling her calm down Seto opened the door and let her get out first. Standing their Joey rubbed her right arm, a habit she developed as of late when she was nervous or scared or a combination of the two. This time Seto could tell it was both.

Taking their bags out of the car he came up next to her. Wrapping an arm around her waist he felt Joey practically cling onto him. He didn't blame her though as the two walked into school, knowing she was like this when they left home since the incident. Walking to their first classroom Seto sat down, Joey sitting on his lap.

“Joey your back!” They herd behind them. Looking the two saw Tristan running up to the two. He stopped short taking in Joey's appearance. Her face was dotted with butterfly stitches while her arms from mid fore arm up and her entire neck were covered in bandages.

“What happened?” Yugi asked while he came up on the two as Tristan sat down. Ryou, Marik, Bakura, Malik, and Yami looked at the two, sadness evident in their eyes.

“It happened when she got kidnapped,” was the only answer Seto gave them as the teacher walked in. As they all to their seats the teacher clicked her tongue seeing Joey's desk empty again.

“Wheeler is absent again,” she muttered while writing it down on the attendance.

“Um no I'm right here teach,” Joey spoke up from Seto's lap. The teacher looked over at shook her head looking at the unfamiliar girl sitting on Seto's lap.

“Who are you?” She asked confused.

“Joey Wheeler, if you look there is an F by my name,” Joey laughed some at the last part. Seto smiled, holding her loosely around the waist. Everyone looked over at the two surprised. Joey made herself as small as possible in Seto's lap as everyone looked at him.

Seto's glare at everyone got the class back to normal. Surprisingly Joey was answering every question with out a hitch for someone who had been gone so long. She never left Seto's lap threw out the class. The whole day was like this up until lunch, none of the teachers making a move to make her leave her spot.

During lunch the whole gang was sitting on the roof top. Yami was resting his head in Yugi's lap while he was talking with Bakura, who was doing the same with Ryou. Marik was resting against Malik's side while talking with Joey, who was sitting in Seto's lap with his arms around her protectively. Tea looked over, raising an eyebrow when she realized Seto had been doing that all day.

“Joey is there a reason Kaiba seems to be always wrapping his arms around your stomach?” Tea questioned, curiosity getting the best of her. Joey looked up at Seto, a smile on her face. Seto smiled back before looking at the others.

“The reason is Joey is pregnant, actually she is four and a half months along,” Seto beamed while telling everyone this. They all said their congratulations before Tristan looked at them.

“Well how about this Friday we all have a little party as a get together to let Joey know all that happened while she was gone?” Tristan suggested. Everyone nodded, seeming to be a great idea for them. Seto smiled nodding his head, only after Joey looked up giving him puppy dog eyes.

“Alright, my home at six, no liquor of any kind allowed though,” He added the last part looking directly at Malik and Bakura. The two just smiled, acting as if they were two angels. This made everyone laugh as the bell rang signaling lunch was over.

The rest of the week went smoothly for Joey, though she clung to Seto the entire time she was in school unless she was only around her friends. Now it was only twenty minutes before everyone would arrive. She laughed looking at Seto.

While she and Mokuba were in the living room he was standing by the main door, waiting for the others. She knew it was so when they arrived he could take whatever alcoholic drink Malik and Bakura brought along.

Seto was wearing casual wear as usual. A pair of black jeans with bare feet while his top was covered with a white shirt and hanging from his neck was his ever present necklace Joey got for him on Christmas. He smiled over at Joey when he felt her looking at him.

She was wearing loosing fitting blue jeans, baggy enough that it would bother he stomach but tight enough she didn't need a belt. Covering her upper body was a pale blue t-shirt that actually showed the bump on her stomach. On her neck she was wearing her collar again, her neck healed enough she could though it was still bandaged.

Hearing the door open she laughed hearing Bakura and Malik whining as Seto walked in with an arm full of liquor the two had brought.

“I told you not to. One I don't want Joey getting a sip on accident and two, you two are crazy when your drunk…not that you are already crazy,” He simply stated while putting the bottles in a locked area the two couldn't get to. Everyone laughed as the two groaned while sitting down.

“So Joey do you want to talk about what happened?” Yugi asked from his spot next to Ryou and Yami. Joey shook her head fast, making her charm actually ring against her collar.

“Let's just leave it at a crazy ex-employee blamed me for their misfortune after they were fired. They took their frustration out on Joey after kidnapping her from a restaurant I took her too with me for a meeting,” Seto explained, “then when Pegasus and I finally found her the girl beat Pegasus in a dual before coming after us. Telling me the only way we would leave is if I beat her in a shadow game. I accepted and almost lost before drawing the card your grandfather gave Joey Yugi, completely forgot I put that in my deck. I beat her, rushed Joey to the hospital and here we are.”

Everyone looked amazed at the end of Seto's tale while Joey was curled up in Seto's lap talking quietly with Mokuba. She seemed as though she wasn't even fazed but if you looked closer you could tell she was because she was gripping Seto's hand.

As the evening went on Joey was caught up with everything that happened. From Tea actually swearing at a teacher, this made her jaw drop in surprise, to Tristan actually getting in the top ten in their grade. This made Joey laughed and ask if he had paid off the teachers to get his spot.

Later, around ten Seto stood up, saying he had to get something. This made Mokuba smile, knowing exactly what he was doing. Joey looked down at him and raised an eyebrow.

“What is going on Mokie?” Joey questioned, confused.

“This puppy,” Seto stated while getting down on one knee, a black box in his hand. Joey looked at him, her jaw dropped.

“Josephine Wheeler, will you marry me?” He asked while opening the box. Joey could only nod, her voice leaving her. Seto smiled putting the ring on her finger. It was a platinum ring with a rare cut ruby in the center, two accent diamonds on each side. Everyone cried out congratulations, Malik getting hit on the back of the head by Marik for his…which won't be written.

“So when are you going to have the wedding?” Ryou asked Joey a month later. They were sitting on the back porch. The others were goofing around in the yard while the two relaxed.

“We decided to have it a month after the baby is born,” Joey smiled while telling him.

“Wow, did you find out what you're having yet?” he asked while dodging a mud ball Malik tossed at them.

“A girl, we still having decided on a name yet,” Joey laughed. When Malik tried to hit Ryou again he yelled at him, grabbing a mud ball himself. Standing up he tossed it at him, nailing the man right in the face. Everyone laughed before starting a mud ball right. Joey smiled staying off the side lines, happy everything was back on track.
