I've had the idea for this story for a long time and finaly wrote it all out. It's a bit short but hope you sill enjoy it!
I own nothing but the plot.
Choice of Words
A dull monotone sound could be heard all around the house. Mokuba groaned and hit the annoying piece of metal and plastic. Immediately the alarm went off and Mokuba covered his head.
'I'll just stay here five more minutes…' but quickly fell back into a deep sleep.
About 30 minutes later a maid entered his room for the routine cleaning and saw that Mokuba was still asleep. She pondered what to do. Should she wake him up? It was a Friday and he needed to go to school. It wasn't Seto after all and she was sure that he wouldn't yell at her for waking him. He looked so relaxed tho; but at the other hand if she didn't wake him and Seto found out she allowed his brother to miss school Seto's wrath would be on here.
"Master Mokuba." She nudged him but all he did was groan. "Master Mokuba, you need to wake up." She then shook him.
"What do you want?" He answered and pulled the covers over his head.
"You'll be late for school if you don't get up."
There was a moment of pause before he sprang up and looked at his clock. It read 7:45, he had 15 minutes before class started.
"Oh crap I'm going to be late!" he jumped out of bed, stumbling a bit, and ran to his dresser. Pulling on the drawers he quickly through on his school uniform and ran out the bedroom door.
The maid shook her head and began the morning cleaning.
Mokuba ran down the stair but missed the last three steps and landed on his face. "Oww, stupid stairs."
After standing back up, he grabbed his bag and coat and headed out side.
Once out side he started his usual 15 minute walk to school, but at a running pace. Half way there it started to rain.
'Great just what I need.' Mokuba cursed the clouds as he kept running.
He made it to class with no time to spare, slumping in his desk he sighed and panted.
The rest of the day was filled with hardship. Today it seemed that everything was against him. First he forgot about the assignment due for his English class, and then a pop quiz in his math class. Then in gum class he was hit in the face with a ball, twice. By the time lunch came around Mokuba wondered if it was even worth coming to school.
That answer came very quickly after another student tripped and the tray landed on Mokuba. No, definitely not worth coming to school today. He was now coved in spaghetti sauce and had no other cloths to change into.
When the day finally came to an end Mokuba was exhausted, covered in dried spaghetti sauce, had a few bruises, and failed his math quiz.
"Hey Mokuba!" Came a failure voice.
Tuning around he saw Yugi and the rest of the gang.
He smiled a bit as they came up to him. "Hi guys!"
"Whoa, what happened to you?" Joey asked pointing out the splatters of red that covered him.
"We had spaghetti today." Mokuba sighed probably for the millionth time. "A kid in my class ran into me with his tray."
"I have those days to." Joey laughed and rubbed his head.
"Do you have anything going on today?" Tea chimed in with her peppy voice.
"Not that I know of, why?"
"Would you like to come to the mall with us later on?"
Mokuba smiled, finally something good was coming out of the day. "Sure, that would be a lot of fun, what time?"
"Would 5 be ok?"
"Works for me."
"Cool, let's meet at the food court in the mall!"
"Ok, I'll see you guys them."
He waved goodbye and headed home.
"You look lovely." A voice said as he came inside.
"SETO!" Mokuba glomped him
"Hey, I don't want that suff all over me." Seto shook him off.
"What are you doing here?" Seto was hardly ever home before 10 let alone on a Friday when he had no school the next day.
Seto sighed and had a bit of a pissed look on his face. "It's been a long day."
"I know the feeling." Mokuba sighed. "Why does it smell like something burning?"
Seto twitched at that "Because the assistant cook tried to burn down the kitchen…"
"oh. Hey Seto would it be ok if I went out tonight?"
"What time, where, and with who?" Seto worried a lot about his brother and took it as his responsibility to make sure he know the answers to those questions. Otherwise who know who Mokuba hangs out with. Seto would not tolerate his brother running around with a bunch of trouble makers.
Mokuba rolled his eyes. "I'm going meet up with Yugi and his friends at the mall around 5."
Seto frowned at this, "Ok, just make sure you have your homework done and your back at 8." Even though Seto himself did not like, or pretend not to like, Yugi and his gang they were fairly good people and know that it was unlikely for Mokuba to get into trouble with them around. Now if he were to hang out with Joey and Tristen alone, who knows what kind of chaos would come about that.
"Yes mother." Mokuba muttered sarcastically as he headed up stairs.
Once in his room he went to his personal bathroom and started up the water. He threw his dirty clothes into a pile and jumped into the shower. Pouring a large amount of shampoo on his hands he scrubbed away at his hair trying to get all the sauce out of it.
Once he was out of the shower and dressed he looked at his clock to check the time; 4:15, only 45 minutes to get all his homework done in time to go.
He grabbed his bag and started to do what little homework that was assigned. It seemed that his luck was starting to turn around for the day.
A half hour later he closed his books and headed down stairs. Once again he ran down them a little too fast missed a few steps and then Crash!
"Mokuba are you ok?" Seto came running out of his study room only to find that Mokuba had tripped down the stairs and crash landed on a huge flower pot.
"Uuu, I think so big brother." Mokuba stood up.
"How many times do I have to tell you not to run down the stairs." Seto lectured him and helped get the flowers off of him.
"Ok, I'm sorry Seto, can I go now?"
Seto shook his head "Ok, all the flowers are off now."
"Thanks Seto!" Mokuba gave him a quick hug then ran outside to the waiting driver who took him to the mall.
Once again Mokuba was late, but at least his friends were more understanding then his teachers.
"Wow, took you long enough." Joey said jokingly
"Sorry guys, it's been an interesting day today."
"Food now, you can explain later." Tristen said and he went to a line in the food court.
Five minutes of waiting in a long line of very annoying people, Mokuba finally got to the front only to find out that they needed to cook more meat for the taco and thus waited another 5 minutes. Once the taco's were done the manager apologized for the wait and gave him an extra taco for free.
'Why is this such a left footed day!' Mokuba headed to the table Tea was waving from.
"What took so long?" Joey asked.
"They had to cook some more meat before I could get them." Another sigh came out. He noticed that he did that a lot today.
"So what happed today?" Yugi asked.
"Ya, you were late getting here." Tea pointed out.
Mokuba grumbled as he told them of how he was late to class, forgot assignments, got hit in the face and had school lunch attack him. Not wanting to hear a lecture form them about falling down the stairs and breaking a priceless vase he summed it up by saying, "Then Seto deflowered me before I headed here."
Now Mokuba just thought that being deflowered was an obvious word used to describe having actual flowers taken off of you. Unfortunately that's not what most comes to conclude. Oh slang, how dangerous you can be.
Tristen chocked on his drink, Joey dropped his food, Yugi was wide eyed with his mouth hanging, and Tea just looked horrified.
Mokuba was a smart kid and could tell by their facial expressions that he said something wrong. "I ran into a huge vase and got flowers all over myself and the floor, Seto was just helped taking them off of me." He figured that it would be better to explain then to wait for one of them to respond.
It was indeed a smart thing to do, the four of them gave a huge sigh of relief.
"Oh, that's a relief, for a moment I thought that, well you know." Joey turned less green then before.
"Umm, no I don't know."
"I think that someone should tell him what 'deflowered' means" Tea said
"I agree." Yugi said then, "NOT IT!" He put his index finger on his noise.
"NOT IT!" the other screamed, poor Joey was the last to put his finger on his nose.
"You have to tell him Joey." Tristen pointed out.
"There's no way I'm telling him!"
"You're the last one, rules say, you have to do it."
"Oh come on Joey, it can't be that bad." Mokuba really wanted to know what it meant.
"Well, ok fine, just don't tell your brother that I told ya. He'd probably kill me if he found out..." He muttered the last part.
As he whispered the meaning Mokuba's face turned white. "OH! I didn't mean it like that, that's just-" He couldn't even finish his sentence. Just the thought of what he said made him want to gag.
The others laughed. "You should be careful of what you say Mokuba." Tea smiled at him.
Mokuba put his head on the table in embarrisment.
Please leave a review of what you think of it, if you want to anyway.
