Lights, Camera, Kaiba
Chapter 2- Paying Debts
"Oh Seto, you're so cool!" Mokuba squealed like he was 10 again as his brother jammed a signature on to a contract.
He was seething horribly, though none of it showed in his emotionless face. How dare this bitch take advantage of him like that? If he didn't know better, he'd say it was planned. After he got over the first initial shock of him being an underwear model, he had flatly refused. The issue had gotten to threats and more threats until Serenity and Mokuba bullied him into doing this using guilt and pride against him.
He did not expect this of Wheeler's sister. Whatever happened to the girl he met in Battle City, who was so shy and quiet? Fox in sheep's clothing was the phrase that popped into his mind. And Mokuba acting like this was such an awesome thing wasn't helping. If the outside world knew of this, he would never live it down. He could threaten them and destroy them, but that wouldn't change anything.
"Alright." Serenity filed away the contract. "To the dressing rooms, Mr. Kaiba."
"Sweet!" Mokuba got up from the chair in which he had been loading up on sugar.
Seto turned sharply on his younger brother. It was all his fault! Seto fished in his wallet and shoved a plastic card at Mokuba. He pointed out the window toward the street. "Credit card. Shopping Center. Go. You may not see me."
Mokuba took the card while rolling his eyes. "You're acting like a virgin." He disappeared before Seto had anything to say.
And with no one else to glare at, Seto chose Serenity's back as she led him out.
*********************************
"Ok, hon. Just put these on." Seto grabbed the item from his dressing room assistant. He had no idea why it had to be a woman A creepy one at that with her huge looming eyes and wrinkled skin on which she put too much talcum powder in an attempt to cover up. Dear Lord, hadn't the woman atleast heard of something called foundation? Oh yeah, foundation was invented around this century!
Seto had once heard that beauty was only skin deep, but looking at this lady, it was fortunate that they could pile many layers of makeup. She reminded him of the witch woman from that one movie Mokuba rented last week when he was helping Seto recover his childhood. Emperor's New Groove was the name and that was by far the most idiotic movie possible on the face of the planet.
He glared at the woman. Why the fuck was she still here? "Do you mind?"
The woman stared at him, giggled and pointed him to a screen behind which he could change.
"Ya know, kid, this is a good business for someone like you." She chatted on while Seto was doing everything in his power to keep from committing 2nd degree murder . "Ya got the money, ya got the brain, ya got the ass. You could really make it good here."
Seto stepped out, wearing his trench coat over his bare, underwear clad body and the lady instantly turned. Seto's eyes narrowed as a disappointed look came over her. Fucking hentai!
He spoke icily. "Not to say I don't appreciate your compliments, but you have no business staring at my backside."
The lady grinned, displaying cracked teeth. "Can I stare at your frontside?"
Seto glared at her for a long time before he clenched his fist and swept out.
*************************
It took Serenity five minutes to convince Seto to take off his coat and when he did, she drew back, delighted. This gorgeous body had to land her a raise. Seto Kaiba appeared so lean in his clothes, but now he was a Greek God hand sculpted by angels. His straight features were in perfect proportion with his broad chest and muscular arms. His trim waist did perfect justice to the product. The camera crew and makeup assistants nodded approvingly and Seto growled. He didn't need approval, not for this!
He stood calmly only making 34 snide comments as the makeup artists messed with his face and torso. It was an accomplishment. Mokuba would be proud of it.
"Ok." Serenity clapped her hands as a solelight illuminated Kaiba. "You know what to do."
"No, I don't." Kaiba folded his hands obsinately.
Serenity walked up to him. "You know, model. Let go!"
Let go of what? Kaiba thought back, he had no idea what the hell models did. He put his hands on his hip. That seemed to be the standard model thing. Serenity looked at him strangely and then swatted his hands away.
"Kaiba, that is so gay!" A ripple of laughter surged through the crew, who suddenly became interested in the lights when Kaiba turned to them.
"Just walk." Serenity sighed. "The sooner, you're done, the sooner you leave. And don't worry. If you request it, we can just edit out your face."
"I'll take on of those requests then." Kaiba hissed as Serenity left.
He began to walk and immediately, lights flashed on both his sides. He would need a ton of asprin now.
Serenity nodded proudly as Kaiba did his routine. For someone so stiff, he moved with amazing grace and flexiblility. Would he even consider a part time job with them? She guessed not after the murderous stare she witnessed as soon as he stepped out of the dressing room.
She knew his assistant was a bitching pervert, but she was the only one available. She hoped Kaiba would forgive her.....maybe millenia later in his next life.
"How's it going? What'd I miss?"
"Mokuba!" Serenity whispered, startled.
The kid grinned. "Took me forever to find this place, but I just couldn't miss this one. What magazine is he gonna be in? Can I get special pictures?"
Serenity grinned. Seto was walking fluidly to the end of the boardwalk. He started out like a toddler taking his first steps, but later, his eyes and hips started to swivel erotically and the muscles under his skin moved like well oiled parts, making every woman and gay man present asphyxiate with delight. Heck, he even looked like he was enjoying it.
He splayed his fingers playfully across his waistline, sliding his thumb under the elastic band of the underwear. He walked back, staring into the distance like a lost angel.
"Wow." Mokuba was impressed. Who knew his icicle brother had it in him to melt people in such a manner. Soon as he could, he was signing Seto up for more of these. Next time, the entire gang would be here.
Serenity nodded her agreement to Mokuba's comment. It was official, Seto Kaiba was a natural.
*******************************
"That was by far the most humiliating thing I've ever done in my life!" Seto choked out as he jammed his arms into his shirt, wanting to cover up as soon as possible regardless of the crew's pleas for him to stay undressed. Even Serenity was mildly disappointed.
"Oh you loved it, Seto." Mokuba shoved a handfull of M&M's into his mouth. "I could see you, all sexy and erotic. You were a first class whore!"
"MOKUBA!" the young Kaiba giggled nervously as he remembered he wasn't supposed to be there in the first place.
"Your hips had a mind of their own, I suppose." Mokuba dodged his brother and took cover behind Serenity, who gave Kaiba a huge hug, which he received stiffly.
"Thank you , Kaiba!" she was genuinely greatful. "You just saved my life!"
"A life for a life, eh?" Kaiba snorted. "If I see my face on any of your idiot fashion magazine crap or on any tabloid, you'll wish I never saved your life!"
"Don't worry." Serenity assured the CEO. "We're more trust worthy than you think."
Right. He'd believe that when his Blue Eyes White Dragon lost a duel. Wait, it had lost a duel. Crap! Kaiba sighed.
"Ya know." Serenity was saying. "If one of higher studios in Tokyo accepts these prints, I could raise my status to manager of this place."
Kaiba snorted again. "Isn't all it's cracked up to be." He said in an aloof voice.
Serenity looked at his expectantly. So he continued.
"You need skill, education...."
"Got it."
"You need to plan ahead all your moves." Kaiba glared. "Business is a game of chess. You make one false move, it could cost you the entire game."
"Serenity's a great planner, Seto." Mokuba said absently, eating more candy. "Really. My quote unquote accident, getting you here to model knowing you never go back on a promise, it was all her."
There was a deadly silence as Mokuba looked up. A nanosecond later, Serenity called. "Lunch time!"
Suddenly, the two Kaiba brothers were left in the room, one staring the other down.
"Candy?" Mokuba sheepishly offered a bitten Hershey bar to his homicidally glaring brother.
***************************************
Notes: The end. The idea came to me this morning and I couldn't write up other story until I got this out of my system. Heh, if I were Mokie, I'd take the earlier credit card and move to the Bahamas for a while. But Seto would eventually catch up and deal with him. I'm not putting that here. Devise your own torture.
Seto: Very well. (laugh)
Mokuba: Someone kidnap me!
Umm..yeah, I know it's not as funny as it sounds (the story). It was more dirty than funny, sorta. But that's just me. I think I lack a humor bone. R&R please. ^^
BTW, think I should write something on Seto's next modeling gig? Mokuba signs him up of course. Also, Emperor's New Groove is one of my most fav movies. I had to mention it in here, but of course, Kaiba's persona doesn't get the humor of it.
